To endless years the same. Under the shadow of Thy throne A thousand ages, in Thy sight, Still may we dwell secure; Are like an evening gone; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, Short as the watch that ends the night And our defense is sure. Before the rising sun. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come; Be Thou our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home. Amen. INVOCATION Rev. Fred Wollerman A LITANY OF CHURCHES led by Dean Clarence Ficken, O.W.U. (Audience will read words in heavy print) Let us give thanks for the gifts and graces of each division of our religious expression: For the ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH: its glorious traditions; its disci- plines in holiness; its worship, rich with the religious passion of the centuries; its noble company of martyrs, doctors, and saints; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the JEWISH CHURCH: its treasure of the experience of Thyself; its psalms and prophetic writings; its laws for the living of the meaningful life; its prophets, priests and seers; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the great Protestant and evangelical communions: For the ANGLICAN CHURCH: its reverent and temperate ways, through its Catholic heritage and its Protestant conscience; its yearning over the divisions of Christendom, and its longing to be used as a house of reconciliation; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the BAPTIST CHURCH, stressing personal regeneration and the conscious relation of the mature soul to its Lord; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/81ef293a6eefef41d7dedb566817de62.jpg 1e754ed91d0e303fe4d972951ef3ed8f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

For the LUTHERAN CHURCH: its devotion to the grace of God and the Word of God, enshrined in the ministry of the Word and sacraments; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For power among METHODISTS to awaken the conscience of Christians to our social evils; and for their emphasis upon the witness of experience and the fruits of the disciplined life; WE PRAISE THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the PRESBYTERIAN reverence for the sovereignty of God and their confidence in His faithfulness to His covenant; for their sense of the moral law, expressing itself in constitutional government; WE PRAISE THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the great number of FREE CHURCHES, both in town and country place, speaking the gospel of salvation through humble repentence; preaching the Word of God and inspiring their members for conscientious daily living; WE PRAISE THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. O God, grant unto all these families within Thy great Church, that as they come to sit down in Thy Kingdom, each may lay at Thy feet that special grace and excellence with which Thou in times past hast endowed it, that we may all glorify Thee in all the world. Amen. ANTHEM "Battle Hymn Of The Republic" Peter J. Wilhousky (Sung by the combined choirs of Delaware County) Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword: His truth is marching on. Glory! Hallelujah! I have seen Him in the watchfires of a hundred circling camps; They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read His righteous sentence in the dim and flaring lamps: His truth is marching on. Glory! Hallelujah! In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on! Glory! Hallelujah! Amen.

Contributions have been made to all the Boards of the church. We have been visited with a gracious religious awakening during the year. The labors of Evangelist E. F Walker of Indianapolis Presbytry Ind have been greatly blessed to us in the conversion of souls. As one result we have received into our membership 86 of profession of faith. Many of these (probably abt 35) came from the Sabbath School & Junior Endeavor Society but the members of the church also have been around to ren- ewed interest & zeal & greater harmony prevails than heretofore amongst our membership.

Description An account of the resource [page 62] [corresponds to numbered page 58 of 1st Presbyterian Church of Trenton Delaware County Ohio 1873-1937] 58 Narrative The year just closed has not been one of memorial growth with us & although we cannot point to any in- crease in our membership yet we trust there has been a growth of grace. Morning & evening ser vices have been held regularly throughout the year (with a very few exceptions in the evg. service when the roads were al- most impassable) & the attendance at both has been en- couraging. At the morning service our average attendance has been about 125 & the evening about 97. Prayer meetings held every Wed. evg. with an average attendance of about 58. The youth of the church is well represented at the services especially the Sabbath evg. service & prayer meeting. The attendance at the Sabbath School has been encouraging as has also been that of the "Junior" U.P.S.C.E Societies. The Womens Home & Foreign Missy Society has been active during the past year in their work on behalf of missions. Rewards of $63.00 has been sent by them to these Boards. A young ladies Circle of "Kings" Daughters has been organized during the year which, together with the previously existing Circle has been active in charitable & philanthropic work both in this neighborhood and elsewhere. The benevolences of the church have been well sustained, con- tributions have been made to all of the Board & these show a slight increase over the previous year. During the year we have commenced on some needed repairs to our church building & also on the addition of a Sabbath School Room. Already the Treasurer has real contributions for these purposes amounting to almost $700.00. The work is now well under way & we hope that before long we shall have a building better adapted to the needs of our Sabbath School & Congregation. A Special meeting was held in Feb in which we had the assistance of Rev. C.L. Work of Granville. The the attendance at the meeting was encouraging & we trust that the results though, not very apparent, have been real. E.J. Post Clk.

The Session of the Trenton Ch in presenting the Narrative for the year just closed would report that the work of this church has not differed materially from that of past years. Morning & evening Sabbath services have been maintained throughout the year with an ^average attendance of 85 at the former & 40 at the latter service Sabbath School & Young People. Meeting ((illegible) & Jun.) have likewise been maintained throught the year with encouraging attendance & interest. The Women's Societies ("H. & F. Miss Soc." & "King's Daughters") have shown commendable faithfulness & diligence in their work throughout the year although the offerings from the Missy. Societies have not quite come up to the ^high average of last year. The weekly Prayer meeting has had an average attendance of 25 throughout the year. All the Boards of the church have been remembered in our contributions. A slight falling off is noticed in one or two instances but this is accounted for by the fact that the Women's Missy. Society has not entirely equaled its former liberality. Five have been added to the church on Confession of Faith, three have been restored; six dismissed; & five placed upon the suspended Roll leaving us a net total membership of 139.

The continued exodus from the farm to the city has affected us- as it has all country churches - & a con- siderable extent. And yet ^in spite of this the work of the church has been carried forward throughout the year with faithfulness. The attendance at both morning & evening services is about as usual with an average of perhaps 90 at the former & 40 at the latter service. The Sabbath School & Young Peoples Societies (both C.E. & Jun C.E.) have been maintained & have come on their work with faithfulness diligence. The Missy Societies & the King's Daughters Circle have likewise been faithful. Their contributions have been up to the average (we think) of former years. The Weekly Prayer Meeting has been maintained with an average attendance of 18 or 20. All the Boards of the Church have been contributed to the amount being about the same as last year. Special services were held for 10 days commencing Mar. 3rd. In these services the pastor had the valued assistance of Rev. D.D. Biggs, D.D. (synodical Missy.) Although no direct results were apparent from the meetings in [illegible] yet we feel that the church has been helped by them. The total membership this year is 136.

As the infirmities of age increased he was less and less able to inspire its members to material and spiritual understandings than in former years. While we realize that Mr Condit made mistakes as all those who are leaders are sure to do yet we feel that his successes far outweigh his failures and that the church owes much to his efforts for which he usually received scant thanks. He was a faithful attendant of the various church services and thought the prayer meetings should be kept up even though the attend- ance be small, and it is with regret that we think of him as being no more with us but it is with thankful- ness that we can think that his departing to be with Christ is far better for him.

The several windows are of handsomely designed stained glass, each being surmounted in its curvature with a beautifully illuminated crown, anchor, sheaf, dove, bible tablets, grapes and other scriptural emblems. These are the workmanship of Mr. George Misch, an accomplished artist of Chicago. The floor and platform are very suitably carpeted and over the center aisle is suspened a brilliant 12-light glass chandelier with innumerable miniature prismatic pendants. the illuminating power is effective by night, under the rich lusture afforded by the sparkling glass, and the amber-colored lamps in contrast with the ornamented globes is charming to the eye by day. The interior of the church is also further beautiful- fied by artistic fresco work, after the latest designs, composed of soft toned blendings of various rich tints, throwing off a contrast most pleasing, yet chaste and in strict keeping with the purpose of the structure, wherein the presence of the Great Jehovah may be invoked. The seating capacity now secured will accommodate about four hundred persons, and right heartily pleased we are to record that the successful labors of the much beloved pastor and members of this zealous denomination are rap- idly increasing its actual membership, nearly half that number already. With this brief sketch of the church and its new place of worship, we proceed to report The Consecration Services At a quarter to eleven the major part of the seats were taken and upon the dias was seated their pastor, the Rev. R. Wylie, as also the Rev. N. S. Smith. D.D. of Delaware, and the Rev. A.S. Carson of Westerville, the latter being visitors to participate in the interesting services. The Rev. Wylie having opened the meeting with prayer, the choir of the church, which is peculiarly fortunate in its possession of naturally good voices, under the efficient and painstaking leadership of Mr. Smith Ketchum, sup- ported by L.S. Condit, sang that beautiful anthem, "Jerusalem, My Happy Home," with a spirit of enthusiasm well calculated to con- vey the beautiful sentiment of the composition to every Christian heart; after which Rev. Smith read the lesson for the day, and Rev. Carson offered up a prayer. An appropriate dedication hymn was then ably rendered by the Rev. Smith, whose attentive and deeply interested congregation had increased very largely by this time, His subject was on the unity of Christ with God, his pre-existence with the Father before the world, The wonderful and bountiful condescension of God, through the gift of His Holy Spirit in the Savior, establishing direct communication with Him- self. The beautiful teachings afforded by the life of Christ were most effectually set forth, and man's necessity of salvation, with its only method to be obtained, was dwelt upon with remark- able fevor, while he earnest implored that divine blessing might descend and ever remain on the people of Trenton, and that those who previously have gone home might awake to righteousness, and those who were still found living when the last trumpet shall be sounded may be caught up in realms of endless bliss. After the sermon, Rev. Wylie stated that the Cost of the beautiful building they now occupied amounted to $2888.96, of which $2842.50 had been subscribed, leaving only the nominal sum of $46.46 to be raised to clear the entire under taking.

As customary on such occasions, the "Old Hundredth" was adopted to the singing of the doxology, the ven- erable strains of which were heartily participated in by the whole congregation. In the Evening the weather having cleared off beautifully, the congregation, as was expected, numbered from four to five hundred persons from all parts. The choir opened the service with a fine anthem. "Doxol- ogy." After which old "Coronation" was sung by all present with heart and voice. The same reverend gentlemen who officiated in the morning were again present in the evening. Rev. Carson preaching a magnificent discourse from the 65th Psalm, 4th verse, which though exhaustive was listened to with marked attention by his audience, and deemed by all to be a most masterly argu- ment in support of God's Church. After an appropriate hymn, the benediction was pronounced by Rev. Wylie and thus ended a day long to be remembered in Trenton. We may add that to intensify the enjoyment of the day's pro- ceeding, it was also the eleventh anniversary for the Rev. Robert Wylie becoming the pastor of the little flock at this place, with whom he has labored most earnestly and sucessfully to the glory of God. He was the recipient of many congratulations, especially as Trenton was his first charge as a minister. His success has been so highly flattering and it was his privilege now to preside over one of the hansomest and most comfortable church buildings in this section of the state, while retaining the heartiest co-operation and prayers of his Flock.

They shall see that their rooms are properly warmed and ventilated. 7. Teachers are required to give earnest attention to the man- ners and morals of their pupils. 8. In case a parent comes to the school-room to complain, the teacher shall not hear him in the presence of the pupils, but shall respectfully hear him in private, and, if necessary, refer the case to the Superintendent or the Board of Education. 9. Teachers shall make themselves as proficient as possible in preparing for recitation of pupils. Be plain and practical. PUPILS. 1. Pupils shall be punctual and regular in attendance at school.

The spirit of the teacher is the all-important thing. Enthusiasm is contagious. It seldom happens that lessons are made too short, but they are often made too long. Put vim into your school work and school life will seem worth the living. Work leads to interest and interest is conducive to work.

That without punctual and regular attendance little good can be accomplished. 2. That disregard of punctuality leads to careless habits of mind and diminishes a pupil's chances of success in life. 3. That tardy pupils fall behind in their classes. 4. That irregular attendance has a bad influence upon the whole school, but still worse upon the irregular pupil himself. 5. That the true aim and end of life can be gained only by prompt and earnest work. Teachers should remember that the text books are but aids, and they should use them as such. They should procure as many supplementary books as possible, and encourage the pupils them- selves to own them, especially those recommended in the Course of Study. A minimum average of 60% in any one branch, and a general average of 75%, or over, in all branches shall be necessary for promotion to the next higher grade. The teacher shall keep a permanent record of the standing of each pupil, and file the same with the Clerk of the Board of Education.

Description An account of the resource [page 6] [corresponds to page 4 of Thompson Township Schools Course of Study Booklet] SUGGESTIONS ON THE TEACHING OF READING. During the first three years of school the pupil should be taught to read readily and with expression any selection that is ordinarily difficult; in other words, the aim should be to teach the mechanical part of reading rather than Literature itself, as the pupil is yet too young to grasp the thought and beauty of ex- pression contained in the writings of standard authors. The fourth and fifth years should be the transition period. The pupil has been trained heretofore in the how to read; now he should be led into the what to read--into the great field of literature. The sixth, seventh, and eighth years should greatly strengthen the pupil's grasp on standard literature. For if, at the close of his elementary work, a desire has been created in him for the best literature, his future is assured. At least one supplementary book should be read by the class each year. WRITING AND SPELLING. Daily practice should be devoted to both writing and spelling. In writing the aim should be to teach continuous movement and a plain, practical business hand. During the first years in school spelling should be largely oral, but both oral and written work should be given in the Intermediate and Grammar Departments. Careful attention should be given to the writing and the spelling in the written exercises on other subjects. ARITHMETIC. The two things most desired in Arithmetic are accuracy and rapidity. It can truly be said that they are co-ordinate.

Description An account of the resource [page 7] [corresponds to page 5 of Thompson Township Schools Course of Study Booklet] only way to secure these results is by constant drills in the different combinations of numbers in the processes of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The pupils must be made familiar with these combinations before explanations or analyses are attempted. Much time should be devoted to mental arith- metic. Business methods of computation should be introduced where they can be substituted for the processes of the schools. Much supplementary work should be done. ENGLISH. The aim in teaching Language, Grammar and Composition should be to train the child in the habits of Good Thinking, Good Talking, and Good Writing. GOOD THINKING--Keep close to the child's nature. The child thinks naturally about things per- taining to his own life--his environment. GOOD TALKING-- "Talk is cheap," but good talking can not be secured without good thinking. Direct the child's thoughts in natural, interesting chan- nels. GOOD WRITING--Good writing follows good thinking and good talking as naturally as day follows night. PHYSIOLOGY. To teach the proper care and development of the body and the mind should be the object in teaching this subject. Frequent talks on Physiology and Hygiene, together with the effects of Alcohol, Tobacco, Narcotics and Stimulants on the human system should be given by the teacher. Valuable suggestions for this work can be obtained from the International Course of Study of Physiology and Hygiene, approved by the Department of Scientific Temperance Instruction of the World and the National W.C.T.U. HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY. These subjects should be correlated as much as possible, especially in the seventh and eighth grades, as the history of a country very largely depends upon its geographical features. In teaching history particular stress should be placed upon the social, the political, and the industrial development of the country. In both these branches, collateral reading should be encouraged. 5 Title A name given to the resource Course of Study Rules and Regulations of Thompson Township Delaware County, Ohio Public Schools (p. 7) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/c5a7b12d4e022ca8019c020a6878966c.jpg b9fd4e9dad67e2d4ff31fe9a645b2d6c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The college graduates in the United States throughout her history have averaged one to seven hundred and fifty of the adult male popu- lation. And yet from this small fraction of our people have come thirty-two per cent of all our Congressmen, forty-six per cent of our Senators, sixty-five per cent of the Presidents, and seventy-three per cent of the Judges of the Supreme Court. Putting this striking fact in another form, college training has increased the young American's possibilities of reaching the House of Representatives three hundred and fifty-two times; of reaching the Senate five hundred and thirty- nine times; of reaching the Presidency thirteen hundred and ninety-two times; and of reaching the Supreme Court of the United States, two thousand and twenty-seven times. Examining in a similar manner the fifteen thousand one hundred Who's Who and forty-two Americans whose names appear in the Encyclopedia of American Biography as having reached eminence throughout our history, President Thwing finds that a college education has multiplied the possibilities of young men reaching fame four hundred and three fold. Examining the college record of the six thousand and twenty-nine Americans whose names appear in Who's Who in America, we find that a college educa- tion increases the possibilities of young men reaching success today one thousand and forty-three fold.

The larger advantages of college-bred young men today are due to the improvements in modern education, and also to the fact that while the ratio named above holds good of our entire history as a nation, nevertheless the ratio of college graduates has been rapidly increasing during the last quarter of a century until they now number one in ninety-one of men twenty-one years of age and over. 2 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 4) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/b4c4679bc26e3c7a147bf15c576ea813.jpg 3394920a8c871263197f453162840c41 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 5] [corresponds to page 3 of OWU Bulletin 1901] Not more striking, but perhaps more surprising is the fact that a similar study of the educational advantages of the known millionaires in the United States shows that the college graduates have furnished four hundred and forty times as many men of wealth as their numbers entitle them to. In other words, if a young man is aiming only at material success, the discipline of a college gives him four hundred and forty times as many possibilities of becoming rich as his untrained brother enjoys. To summarize the In the Hall of external advantages of a higher education in a sentence we may say that a college education increases a Fame. young American's possibilities of winning influence and gaining distinction as an author, teacher, preacher, physician, lawyer, statesman, business man, inventor, reformer, from three hundred and fifty to two thousand fold. But these are only the advantages which can be measured by wordly standards. How immeasur- able are the advantages of an education to the man himself! One's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. Education, as the word implies, means the development of all one's faculties to the highest power. It aims at character, as well as scholarship. It insures the highest preparation for life on one's own part, and for service for his family, his country, and his God. The difference between barbarism and civilization is the difference between a life of the sense and a life of faith. The barbarian lives from hand to mouth; the civilized man treats the harvest of today as the seed-corn for tomorrow. So the heedless and indifferent young people of our land are living chiefly for a good time today; those who are seeking education are preparing themselves for the services and the blessedness of the morrow and of the new century now begun. Young people of America who take themselves at all seriously will not fritter away their oppor- An Open Door. tunities.

Long before the University was dreamed of, Delaware was noted for beauty and for health. The rolling ground, the mild climate and the healing waters made this spot the headquarters for rest and recreation of the Delaware Indians after they had been driven from their eastern home. The first white settlers soon learned that the fame of the sulphur springs rested not on Indian legend but on established facts. The famous White Sulphur Spring on the College Campus is only one among many of the springs within easy distance. The spring abounds in romantic associations, one of the most interesting of which is the fact that at this spot young Rutherford B. Hayes first met Lucy Webb, the first girl admitted to the College classes. Delaware, originally known only as a watering-place but now far-famed as a college town, is grown Location. to a city of eight thousand inhabitants. It is located twenty-three miles north of COlumbus, very near to the exact geographical center of the state. Three railroads--two divisions of the Big Four (Cleveland to Cincinnati, and Springfield to Delaware), the Hocking Valley, and the Sandusky Short Line, besides an inter-urban trolley line now being built from Columbus through Delaware to Marion--make it easy of access from every direction; while electric cars and lights, the new system of heating buildings and residences by a central hot-water plant, the modern sewer system now being constructed, shady streets, good schools, churches, and beautiful homes make it an almost ideal dwelling place. The College grounds embrace the fine rolling Campus in the heart of the city, the beautiful Mon- Campus and nett Campus in the west end, and the picturesque Observatory Park and Merrick Glen, forty-three Buildings. acres in all. 5 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 7) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/f6025021088f79aaf2753a4d27863bb2.jpg 56aa9471e406165ee13e623b9b904b0e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Twenty-two thousand students have been in attendance since 1844. The rapid recent growth of the University is shown by the fact that more students completed courses and received degrees from 1889-00 inclusive than during the preceding forty-six years. The University, including the College of Physicians and Surgeons, has conferred degrees upon 4,263 persons. Her graduates include over one thousand physicians, over five hundred ministers and more than one hundred missionaries, some three hundred and fifty lawyers, fifty editors, two hundred college presidents and professors, nearly four hundred teachers in the public schools, and over fifteen hundred persons engaged in various business occupations or in home duties.

The same is undoubtedly true, in a measure, of some American universities. But statisticians tell us that, while of all the young men of America only one in twenty is a Christian, yet of the college young men one in three is a Christian. And in institutions like the Ohio Wesleyan, where religion is given its rightful preeminence, the Christian young men outnumber all others more than four to one. 26 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 28) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8a0da61386ba7a2f1560838caf02c25c.jpg 3bb04c42b4c1e3276a1d346b987a4ccc Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

We need scarcely add that the University requires every student who enters her portals to bring a certificate of good character, and also, if he comes from another college, a letter of honorable dismissal; and she reserves the right to terminate her relations with a student at any time, when the authorities are convinced that his influence is harmful to other students, or that his continuance is unprofitable to himself.

The profound religiousness of men is evidenced in nothing more emphatically than in the fact that vital godliness is more prevalent among the educated than among the illiterate; and in the additional fact that in the University the ordinary means of grace, including the daily worship in Gray Chapel and the weekly church services and the montly lectures by the President and the annual revival meetings, beginning with the Day of Prayer for colleges, are not sufficient to satisfy the demand. The University has been obliged to offer elective courses in the Bible, both in English and in the original languages. And in addition the students, of their own accord, have organized classes for special study of the Bible; class prayer-meet- ings are held; and the Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C.A. both are maintained in vigorious condition, with a paid Y.M.C.A. secretary supported by the students and faculty and devoting his whole time to the work of the Association.

(I) The University furnishes, on application, blanks to the superintendents of schools and to principals of high schools and academies. When these blanks are properly filled, they afford a better knowledge of the student's acquirements than examinations can reveal. Hence such certificates are accepted in lieu of examinations, so far as the work in quantity and quality corresponds with the work required for admission. Advance work brought from another college is accepted in the same manner, so far as it is satisfactory to the professor in charge of the department in which such work is offered. By Examina- (2) If the student offer himself without a certificate of scholarship, he is directed to the proper profes- tion. 30 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 32) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/4a55c00b67a1831eb0fbe24f84b43b79.jpg afc34443f577e2fe3b44518adffd3e9d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 39] [corresponds to page 37 of OWU Bulletin 1901] we are now able to offer along with our thorough course in Psychology. Prospective teachers will recognize in this new course one more advantage added to those which they already enjoy in being brought into daily contact with instructors who have reached eminence in the teacher's profession and whose examples are an incalculable help and inspiration. Moreover, all the studies pursued by candi- dates seeking preparation for teaching are credited on the books of the University, and at any later date these credits can be counted toward a degree, if the teachers should decide to complete a college course. Hundreds of young people who came to the University for a later course of study, not dream- ing that a degree was within their reach, have found themselves by unexpected opportunities or else by gradual achievements able to complete a college course and thus to fit themselves for lofty service in their chosen profession. 4. SPECIALIZATION. The offer of so many electives is an encouragement to specialization. And we owe it to young people to remind them that all educators advise against haste in entering upon technical or professional studies and insist upon a preliminary course in the so-called liberal arts. Indeed, the technical and professional schools are discouraging more and more the admission to their courses of any except college graduates. Following this consensus of opinion and our own convictions born of experience, we have not made preparation for that superficial education which results from excessive specialization. We insist that the graduates of the University lay broad and deep foundations of general culture. Upon the other hand we recognize the desire of students, who have decided upon their professions, to select studies which will advance them in their preparation for life. Again, elective courses enable students who have not yet selected their future work to secure, along with their general culture, special training in those subjects for which they have tastes and talents. Hence in the three courses open to our students, and in the relative amounts of prescribed and elective work fixed upon, we have tried to 37 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 39) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/ad2f8a5deaedefbe56ca339c51cb39df.jpg 8b076bc703f3b30d6886e71337f9629a Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Academic Department. JOHN H. GROVE, A.M., Principal. A person fifteen years old, of good moral char- acter, and with sufficient knowledge to enter the classes organized, will be admitted to the Aca- demic Department. In admitting students, the Princiapl learns by personal questions, but without formal examination, what preparation the candidate is seeking and what studies he can profitably pursue, and assigns him to classes accordingly. The Principal reserves the right of ad- vancing the pupil or of placing him in lower classes, as his recitations reveal his needs.

Besides, young people doing their preparatory work at Delaware, enjoy many advantages of the University, associate with classmates moving toward the same goal, and feel the inspiration of college life. III. The School of Business. LYCURGUS L. HUDSON, A.M., Principal. The School of Business affords and excellent training for a practical career, and also opportunities for business training upon the part of those who are completing the college courses. It embraces courses in Bookkeeping, Banking and Business Practice, Commercial Law, Commercial Arithmetic, Stenography, Typewriting and Correspondence, Penmanship and Telegraphy. The course of study is equal to that offered by any modern business college, and the student in addition enjoys all the advan- tages of the University. This department has had a remarkedly rapid growth under its present efficient Principal and his able corps of five assistants. Many students are here securing rapid prepara- tion at small expense for successful business careers; while professional students are securing that practical training which will insure them the respect and co-operation of successful business men. The department is open throughout the year and students can enter it at any time. For special catalogue address the Principal. IV. The School of Oratory. ROBERT I. FULTON, A.M., Dean.

Description An account of the resource [page 42] [corresponds to page 40 of OWU Bulletin 1901] extended and thorough course in all branches pertaining to the art of expression. The schools seeks attainments rather than numbers. It confers degrees only upon college graduates, thus maintaining a standard equal to the highest professional schools, a standard not maintained by any other school of oratory in the land. It aims to fit its pupils for the large and increasing demand for cultivated teachers of oratory in schools and colleges; and to prepare ministers, lecturers, elocutionists and lawyers for greater influence and usefulness in the higher walks of life. The instruction is given by principles which are applied from the first lesson, thus making the student's work practical throughout. All attempts to make form take the place of fact, and art the place of truth, are discouraged. The exercises are prescribed for the purpose of freeing nature's avenues of expression and of enabling the student to present with clearness and grace and power the convictions which he holds. The enrolment [sic] in the School of Oratory for the present college year will include more than two hundred separate students. The rapid growth of the school is due to the reputation of the Dean and the excellence of the teachers employed to assist him in his work and to the very reasonable charges for tuition in this school, supported in part by endowments, as compared with the ordinary schools of elocution which are supported entirely by the fees of the students. This is the first school of oratory established in connection with a great university demanding the completion of a college course of study by all of its graduates, and thus taking an established rank as a real professional school.

The students in the school have an opportunity for broadening their technical training by literary culture and thus securing for themselves a recognized position in the world of letters. Full courses are offered in voice, upon the organ, the piano, the violin and all wind instruments. In addition to such technical training thorough courses in Theory, Harmony, and the History of Music are offered. Among the advantages of the school are the privilege of membership in the Choral Society, open to competent students; the privilege of participa- tion in Commencement Concerts given by the Choral Society and by eminent artists; practice in ensemble playing; the privilege of attending weekly lectures in musical esthetics, recitals by advanced pupils, concerts given by the members of the Faculty of the School of Music and chamber and solo concerts given by distinguished artists from abroad. These privileges, with the use of the reading- rooms and the libraries of the University and participation in University life, add peculiar attractions to the study of this noble art in the School of Music in the Ohio Wesleyan University. The Roosevelt Grand Organ in Gray Chapel is the finest organ in Ohio and worthy of comparison with the leading organs of America. For further information send for catalogue to C. M.

It marks a most important advance in the evolution of the University. We need only explain that the College of Physicians and Surgeons is located at Cleveland rather than Delaware because of the necessity for large clinical advantages which can be adequately supplied only in a great city. The students of our Medical Department have extraordinary advantages in that while they share in the clinics of the City Hospital, the Faculty of the College of Physicians and Surgeons own and control the Cleveland General Hopsital, so that the students of our College enjoy exclusive use of its clinics. More than eight hundred patients were treated in ward in the General Hospital in 1900, besides more than eight thousand cases in the Free Daily Dispensary. There were also twenty-seven students in the Training-School for Nurses. The combined clinics of the two hospitals are unsurpassed by any other medical college in the country, and bring yearly additions to the senior class from other medical schools in Ohio and even from medical schools in Michigan, New York, and Philadelphia. The Faculty of the College of Physicians and Surgeons is composed of nearly fifty of the leading physicians in Cleveland, some of whom, although young, have established a national reputation by their researches. No physician is kept in the faculty simply upon his great reputation either as a practi- tioner or as an investigator; but every member of the Faculty attends conscientiously to his duties as an instructor and comes in personal contact with the students in their personal investigations under his directions.

The information given here is intended to indicate only in outline the various scales of expenditure of students. For the benefit of young men and young women who desire fuller details, the University has recently issued two leaflets entitled "What it Costs a Young Man at Ohio Wesleyan University" and "Expenses at Monnett Hall." These cover almost every point of inquiry. The former is of value to persons who are concerned about the matter of self-support. Either leaflet will be mailed on request. Honor Gradu- Any young man, or young woman, who completes the course of study in the community in which ates from he or she resides, and is designated by the Principal of the High School or the Superintendent of High Schools. Schools as the first honor student in the graduating class, is entitled to a Free Scholarship in the Ohio Wesleyan University during his college course. This Honor Scholarship is granted to only one graduate each year of each school applying for it. If the High School offers two or more courses of study, the Principal selects the honor graduate from the course which offers the best preparation for entrance to college. The Free Scholarship covers the tuition for the entire four years' course at college, but does not cover the incidental or laboratory fees. The printed form, officially signed, will be forwarded at once on application to the President.

The Ohio Wesleyan University possesses property in build- ings, grounds, endowment funds, etc., valued at $1,- 357,000; its professors are paid in part by the income of the endowment. Every student attending the University enjoys his full share of all benevolent contributions which have been made to it. It is conducted not for the purpose of making money, but to dispense the benefactions of generous donors. The total tuition, incidental and laboratory fees paid by the students meet scarcely more than one-third of the total expenses of the University each year. Hence for every dollar which a student pays in fees the University places nearly two dollars by the side of it and expends the three dollars for the benefit of the student. It is no disparagement to private schools to say that they cannot offer their students the advantages which an institution endowed as is the Ohio Wesleyan affords. 50 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 52) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/20246cdaccae58b8e0586ffefb8f9051.jpg a9ad84e6d4b184ba338947e4f2b9cca0 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 53] [corresponds to unlabeled page 51 of OWU Bulletin 1901] It is somewhat difficult to estimate the expenses of a young person in college, because the cost of Necessary living varies with the habits, tastes and financial ability of people. To a large number of students, the Expenses. cost of an education is not a matter of consideration; they have parents or friends who are more than willing to pay the bills, if they will only do the work. To a larger number, the question of cost is a more serious problem; for their parents or friends are unable to pay more than a portion of the expense, and they must supplement their limited income with earnings from day to day or during vacations. To very many others, the most serious problem is that of expense; they are without income or assistance from parents or friends, and are wholly dependent upon their own endeavors. To this self-dependent class have belonged hosts of men and women whose names are among the immortals--Ralph Waldo Emerson who blacked the boots of the President of Harvard College, and Martin Luther who sang in the streets for pay. The cost of living in Delaware is not high; it is much less than in a city. Indeed, one of the Item by Item. advantages of residence in Delaware is that it is within thirty-five minutes of Columbus by any one of three railway routes, with a trolley line projected, and at the same time retired enough for quiet study and wholesome recreation and fullness of life at a reasonable expense. Some conception of the total expense of the University, aside from the cost of clothing and traveling, may be formed by the follow- ing itemized estimates: Incidental fee, per term . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .$8.00 to $12.00 Scholarship, per term . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.33 to 5.00 Table board in private family, per week . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 to 3.00 Table board in club, per week . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.75 to 2.50 Self board, per week . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.00 to 1.25 Furnished rooms for two persons, each person per week . . . . .50 to 1.25 51 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 53) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/19f34c8db859e18b7b4dd28a681a11f5.jpg b9edc96077b4e1fc5980a42cc2385097 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Measurement It is vastly better to attend any school where there are earnest teachers and ambitious pupils of Values. struggling for an education than to remain unfitted for the work of the twentieth century. But there are varying values in education as there are varying values in clothing or lands. The lowest priced goods are seldom the cheapest. To determine the value of institutions of learning, compare the original cost of an education with the value of the advantages offered by each. The chief cost of an education is not in the money which one pays for tuition, but in the value of the time spent at the college. You have only one youth in which to secure preparation for a lifetime of service to the world. Can you afford therefore, for the sake of a slight difference in tuition, to spend your golden years of preparation in a college destitute of the equipments necessary for educational work, and lacking in funds with which to command the ablest teachers, when a slight increase in expenditures will secure the enjoyment of all the advantages which come from more than a million dollars in buildings and equip- ments and endowments? 52 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 54) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/f372a27e127e903eaaf8be60a001811a.jpg c0d9709e807143ed13f8db1373324669 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Three of our students recently completed graduate courses at Yale, where they were brought into competition with graduates from the leading colleges in the land. Yet two of our three graduates secured special recognition based upon scholar- ship. Seven of our graduates were enrolled in Harvard recently, four of whom secured special recognition for their scholarship. Five of our graduates have recently studied at Johns Hopkins in competition with three hundred graduates from the leading colleges of the land. Three of them won fellowships of $500 each offered to the twenty best students in the University. Five of our graduates completed the theological course in the Boston University recently in a class of forty-six. Our five representatives secured two of the four honors awarded on graduation day. The Theological School of Boston University and Drew Theological Seminary have recently established fellowships for foreign study. Our graduates have won nearly half of these fellowships, although they number less than one- tenth of the students in these schools. It was such facts as these which led President Hayes to remark that he was familiar with the great colleges of the land, and that he believed the Ohio Wesleyan University and Oberlin had the cream of American students.

What signal advance the race is to organize, and what master stroke our own land is to supply, we may not say; but of one thing we are assured: that the direction of affairs will be assumed by disciplined minds and hearts. Too much is at stake to allow options to the capricious incompetence of novices. The Higher Education will lead off in the future as it has in the past whenever the race has fronted a crisis. The Higher Education achieved th conquest of England under William of Normandy, and became a godsend to the English people. It was the Higher Education that unified the English in the fourteenth century, when Wyclif and Chaucer taught England her tongue of melodious energy with which to order the march of later ages. The Higher Education swung Germany out from the sinister paternalism of the papacy into the free activities of adult life. The same power lifted Scotland up among the princes of thought. Not otherwise was it when the Oxford students of the last century helped God turn a corner in human history. Higher Education aroused and then leagued Germany against foreign opposition in the early days of this 58 Title A name given to the resource Bulletin of Ohio Wesleyan University (p. 60) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/a52d74ca91e2c827cfedcdc211d03b03.jpg c1fcd74efd1b09952f4a95701e129677 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

You will not fail to apply the true criterion of power when you think of Athens, which may be covered with the finger tip, or of Judea, the tiny fulcrum upon which a divine lever was laid for the uplift of whole ages, for Pericles and Plato still eye the world from the little city of Greece, and David and his Greater Son still calm the world's tumults from the mountain town between the river and the sea.

JOSEPH MAIN, DAVID JENKINS, Clerk. Moderator. CIRCULAR LETTER. The Owl Creek Harmony Regular Baptist Association, held with the Mt. Pisgah Church, Morrow County, Ohio, August 30th, 31st, and September 1st, 1878, To the several Churches composing the same. Greeting : DEAR BRETHREN IN THE LORD:--As it is the custom of the Association to send a Circular Letter with her Minutes, we will address you on the subject of the Holy Ghost, as revealed in the Bible. The Apostle John tells us there is three that bear record in Heaven; the Father; the Word and the Holy Ghost; and that these three are one. Hence we learn that the record of these three, is but the record of the Eternal God. God is a spirit; and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. Therefore, Brethren, we conclude the Heaven, where these three bear record, is the Church of God. For when we look in the Bible, the reveal- ed Word of God, we find in creation that the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said let there be light, and there was light. And when God said let us make man in our image after our likeness, so God created man in his own image; and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the earth, and breathed in his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul. Turning to the gospel according to St. John, 1st chapter and 3d virse, we find that all things were made by him, (the word) and without Him was not enything made that was made. Showing to the Church of God the comforting conclusion of the work of Crea- tion by the three that are one, to the overthrow of all the false no- tions of men concerning Creation. And oh, the wonderful wisdom and power of God manifested in Providence over all the workman- ship of His hands, according to his own eternal perfection; and throughout the Old Testament it is described the spirit of God. But when we come to the New Testament we find it called the Holy Gost [sic]. With reverence and humility let us look at some of the teachings of the New Testament. O, poor, sinful man, be as- tonished, the marvelous work of the Holy Ghost, (contrary to the weak capacity of mans' understanding,) the power of the highest overshadows the Virgin Mary and prepares her to be the mother of Jesus, the only saviour of sinners. Matthew 1st ch., 18th 20th virses, tells us it is of the Holy Ghost. Of all the millions that is born of woman, there is none like Him, for He is the Christ the Son of God, and he was full of the Holy Ghost, and if Jesus was full of the Holy Ghost and called the Son of God, how can dying Title A name given to the resource Minutes of the Forty-Sixth Annual Session of the Owl Creek Harmony Regular Baptist Association Begun and Held With Marlborough Church, Delaware County, O.

Minutes 1878] men and women be known as the Sons of God to that church known in the Bible as the Church of the First Born, unless they are spirit- ually taught for this Jesus is the express image of the invisible God, the first born of every creature. This Jesus, born in Bethleham, Judeah, was declared to be the salvation that God had prepared, before all people, as witnessed by good old Simeon under the teach- ing of the Holy Ghost. So we find that men taught by the Holy Ghost looked for the coming of Jesus, and received him when he came. This same Jesus came to John the Baptist, his forerunner, and demanded baptism, and when they were coming up out of the water the Holy Ghost appeared in the form of a dove and lighting upon him--and a voice from heaven saying. this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. Thus the Holy Ghost bearing witness in heaven. (the church,) the testimony who receives it, that person that enjoys the gift of eternal life. This eternal life is the Holy Ghost, for says Paul know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, and all the New Testaments examples exhibit the power of the Holy Ghost in teaching no man can call Jesus Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. And oh, dear brethren, the Holy Ghost acts as a sovereign like the wind that bloweth where it listeth, and thou heareth the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh or whither it goeth, so is every one that is born of the Spirit. And this Spirit beareth witness with our Spirit that were are the children of God. If children, then heirs of God and joint heirs with the Lord Jesus Christ. Seeing our need of understanding, where will we go dear brethren, to the world or to the institutions of the world, which may all be good in their places, but can do us no good spiritually. But to God, the Father, through the mediation of Jesus our Saviour, and in his name we ask the Father, and the Father has promised to give the Holy Ghost to them that ask him, and it is one of the names that we are baptized in when we put on Jesus by profession. The Holy Ghost is to be teacher and guide through all our pilgrimage, it gives the children of God to feel the love of God in their hearts, and enables them to enjoy fellow- ship with the Father and the Son, and it always leads the children of God to love one another, and to be patient in trials, viewing in Father, Son and Holy Spirit, one God from whom all blessings flow. To his praise and glory in the church throu hout all ages, by Christ Jesus. World without end. Amen. JOSEPH MAIN, DAVID JENKINS, Clerk. Moderator.

The adverse majorities on the forty-two amend- ments ranged from 109 to 1,850, in some townships reaching as high as 6 to 1. The liquor license clause lacked 124 votes of carry- ing (1,579 to 1,455), the woman suffrage amendment lost by 191 (2,098 to 1,907), the initiative and referendum by 1,071, abolition of capital punishment by 1,258. Home rule for cities lost heavily in the townships and in the city by 618 to 598. THE "WET" AND "DRY" VOTE. Delaware county went into the "dry" column October 1, 1908, and thirty days later fifteen Delaware saloons were closed. The county went "dry" by 2,147, and to this total the city contributed a "dry" majority of 528. No precincts except those in the Fourth ward went "wet," although Harlem township came within one vote of a tie. Precinct A of the First ward scored the most decisive "dry" victory, the proportion being 7 to 1. On the day of the local option election there were two arrests on charges of keeping saloons open and two for alleged illegal voting. The total vote cast was 6,539, 4,343 being "dry" and 2,196 "wet." Delaware county was the seven- teenth to vote under the Rose law. May 25, 1903, the city voted on the liquor question and went "wet" by a majority of 574, as against the "dry" majority which the city gave at the 1908 election. Before 1890 the city was "dry" for a period of a year, but in August, 1899, the "wets" won again and helf sawy until the 1908 election. At one time there were twenty-seven saloons in the county.

By act of the Ohio Legislature, February 10, 1808, Delaware county was created. Through the influence of Moses Byxby, special commissioners located the county seat here in March, 1808. Delaware was first incorporated as a village in 1816. That year thirty-two votes were polled, and in the winter of the first election a wood-chopper, standing on the barren Monnett Hall hill, looked over the surrounding valley and counted thirty-two houses. In four years these increased to fifty, and in 1823 there were sixty houses. At that time a Board of Trustees, elected by the people, man- aged the affairs of the village. This form of government continued until 1849, when the Legislature passed an act providing for a town council of eight members. This council chose from its ranks a Mayor, Recorder, Treasurer and Assessor. They also elected a mar- shall and a street committee of three. Up to 1857 the Mayor served without pay, except such legal fees as he received as a magistrate. In that year, however, the salary was fixed at $200. In 1863 this salary was cut in half. In 1854 councilmen were allowed $1 for each regular session and 50 cents for each special meeting. The marshal received $200 annually. In fact, at that time the marshal was a most important functionary. Besides representing the majesty of municipal law, he collected the taxes, cleaned the streets, had charge of the village market. Later it became the duty of council to appoint the marshal, and he served night and day for $2, exclusive of legal fees. In the early days city officials were much troubled with stray animals. Hogs, dogs and cows ran at large, greatly to the worry of the citizenry. Finally a dog and hog tax was levied in 1842, but the friends of the latter were too powerful, and the partially collected tax was refunded. But with the growth of the village the opposition grew stronger, and the hog, shorn of his liberty, cannot at this pro- gressive date be nurtured within the closely guarded precincts of the city. In 1821 James B. Weaver was the only school teacher in Dela- ware. He taught in a building on the site of present city hall. In a fit of passion he fatally injured a pupil, and although no prosecu- tion followed, the act broke up the school and drove the teacher from his profession and from the town. In 1873 Delaware advanced from village rank to the dignity of a city. The population was slightly more than 6,000. The city was divided into three wards, and later into five. There was a re-division in 1891, when six wards were created. There was another change in 1899, and finally the divisions were made in 1912 to include four wards, with a total of twelve precincts.

The new parcel post, operated by the United States govern- ment, went into effect January 1, 1913, the first package out of Dela- ware being a violin sent by J. W. Bonham to Melvin, Iowa. Seven- teen parcels were mailed from the local office the first day. Parcel post is a new way of sending packages, and there are three distinct- ively new features: 1. The postage you pay depends on the weight and the distance your package goes. Exception: Packages weighing four ounces or less are so small that they will be sent at the old flat rate of 1 cent an ounce everywhere. 2. You can now send packages weighing up to eleven pounds, instead of only four pounds. 3. You must use a new kind of stamp for parcels. Ordinary letter stamps are not good on these packages, and the new parcel post stamps are not good on other mail matter. "ZONE SYSTEM" EASY. The "zone system" is easy to understand. Just remember that whatever you may be, you are the center of the whole system. The accompanying parcel post map and table contain all the necessary references. Use them every day--they're valuable! SOME DON'TS. Don't use ordinary stamps; the distinctive parcel post stamps must be used. Don't seal your pacakge; wrap and tie it securely. Don't fail to put the sender's name on the outside of package. Don't forget to mark your package "Perishable" or "Fragile," if the contents are of that nature. PARCEL POST RATES. Parcels weighing four ounces or less are mailable at the rate of 1 cent for each ounce or fraction of an ounce, regardless of distance. Parcels weighing more than four ounces are mailable at the pound rate, as shown by the following table, and when mailed at this rate any fraction of a pound is considered a full pound: *1st Zones 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th Local Zone Zone Zone Zone Zone Zone Zone Zone Weight.

Now, the amount appor- tioned to the municipal funds by the Budget Commission under the Smith 1 per cent bill for 1912, with a levy of 3.35 mills on a dupli- cate of $8,730,035, shows receipts of only $29,245.62, making a de- crease in property tax revenues alone of $10,754.38. This, with the amount cut off by the loss of the bridge and Dow tax of $10,000 (estimated) will show an actual shortage in city revenues each year of $20,745.38, unless the Budget Commission increases the mill levy, or unless the real and personal tax duplicate is made greater than that of the year 1912. To make the same revenue as received for property taxes in 1911, the appraised valuation of the city should be placed at $12,000,000 (instead of $8,730,035), on which, with the levy of 3.35 mills, the amount received would equal $40,200, or $200 in excess of the amount received in 1911. 91 Title A name given to the resource The Delaware Ohio Blue Book (p. 95) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/0c35b1216193e7df7ae53eb25caf6a51.jpg ef875cb753b25dc19d4163e8b3193df0 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 99] [corresponds to page 95 of Delaware Blue Book] Scioto river starts in eastern Auglaize county. For sixty miles its course is eastward, but in Marion and Delaware counties it takes up a permanent southern course. It drains an area of 6,430 square miles. The Scioto travels down through Columbus, and a short dis- tance below Chillicothe the hills close in on both sides and the re- mainder of the river's course is through a deep valley, bordered by hills 400 feet or more in height. From Here to There in Rhyme. Here's a distance table in rhyme. If you live in Delaware and want to know how many miles you are from a neighboring village, or if you live in the rural districts and want to know the distance to the county seat, just take a glance: From Hyattville to Delaware it's six good miles they say; At least that's what a witness draws in travel fees one way. But if you are from Ashley, you've ten and half to travel, While an Olive Green man, on foot or horse, full thirteen must un- ravel. It's just six miles from Bellpoint, when walking's good or ill; Galena twelve and Powell ten, nineteen from Centerville. With eight small miles behind him, the Lewis Center man would be here; A Kilbourne man requires two less, or a half dozen in the clear. From Leonardsburg it's six and a half, from Rome it's past half twenty; From Radnor it's a lovely eight, and Stratford three--that's plenty. A Cheshire man has eleven big miles of road on which to hike it; A Harlemite but sweet sixteen, and most the way could pike it. A long, lean man from Warrensburg could reach here in an hour, For with just six miles to travel, he doesn't need much power. An Ostrander man counts nine short miles before we chance to greet him, A White Sulphur man goes half a dozen miles ere he gets where we can meet him. Rathbone's busy pilgrims live just twelve miles from the hub; And Norton farmers, when in town, drive nine full miles for grub; And it's not because they're stingy that they drive home for a meal; 'Most any restaurant habitue knows exactly how they feel. Now Sunbury town and Delaware have a dozen miles between; And a Condit man can reach this town by pacing off eighteen. To Berkshire, too, upon my word, it's just nine miles, they say; While "wet" Columbus, twenty-four, is down hill all the way. 95 Title A name given to the resource The Delaware Ohio Blue Book (p. 99) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/ec1800ad60079450fa59521619acaf1b.jpg 362b4209ebccbb98cc628ee7408e9c25 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

ON June 20th, 1850, there appeared in the "Olentangy Gazette" of that date, the following notice, the result of suggestions made at a re- cent meeting of the Common Council of the town of Delaware: BURIAL GROUND NOTICE. The citizens of Delaware and vicinity are requested to meet at the Court House, this evening, at 7 1-2 o'clock, to take into consideration the subject of extending the limits of the present Burying Ground, and making a suitable fence around the same; or of changing the location, if necesssary, and selecting a suit- able place for a new one, as the present ground is nearly all occupied. It is hoped that a subject, in which all must be interested, will ensure a general attendance of the citizens. This meeting was numerously attended; Mr. E. Moore acting as Chairman, and Mr. C. C. Chamberlain as Secretary. After a general interchange of opinion on the necessity of immediate action, Dr. R. Hills moved that a committee of five be appointed, to inquire into the propreity of enlarging the present Burying Ground, or of selecting a new one, and report to an adjourned meeting. This motion was adopted, and Dr. R. Hills, Benj. Powers, James Eaton, D. F. McCullough and C. C. Chamberlain, were appointed to the committee. At the adjourned meeting, held at the same place, on the evening of June 29th, 1850, the committee, through their chairman, made a re- port, of which the following is an abstract: Your committee report, that, in regard to the present Burial Ground, Title A name given to the resource Rules and Regulations and Articles of Association of Oak Grove Cemetery (p. 8) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8aa717a8ba14ada58ebaf97a7e2b6ad3.jpg 0328dc1b7b5d8a322479bce78b4f0df7 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [corresponds to page 6 of Oak Grove Cemetery booklet] 6 the amount of land orginally appropriated--about two acres--has long since been taken up; and that the extensions of Mr. C. C. Cham- berlain, on the north, and Dr. Reuben Lamb, on the south--about two acres more--are nearly all sold. They also find that one acre of ground, belonging to the township, and lying separately from the other by a few rods on the south, is now being used as a pasture in connec- tion with other lands, the monuments being every one broken down, and the inscriptions on nearly all completely effaced. The other grounds are in miserable condition; the fences, partly board, and party worn, are dilapidated; the monuments are some of them broken and defaced, and nearly all leaning in different directions and different degrees; many lots are found to be lapping on each other, and the single carriage avenue or lane through the centre could hardly be found without an expert surveyor, and hogs and cattle are permitted to trample upon and uproot these "houses of the dead" to an extent shameful to the living. Two things are evidently essential to be done under this state of things: the preservation and protection of the old ground, and the pur- chase and appropriation of a new one. The duties of your committee refer only to the latter. An extension of the present ground was first considered; but what was deemed an adequate amount of suitable ground could not be pro- cured--only some eight or ten acres, with three or four of it useless, and at an expense of $200 per acre. The next consideration of the committee was, to ascertain if elsewhere a tract of land could be procured, suitable, in all respects, for a Bury- ing Ground of the character of modern rural cemeteries. After a tho- rough examination in all directions, your committee are unanimous in recommending for this purpose the purchase of the "Kilbourne Farm," a tract of fity acres lying south of the town, one mile distant. A por- tion of this is cultivated, the remainder in a state of nature; the whole undulating and varied in surface, with small rivulets meandering through it. There is also a small frame house, a barn, well, and other improve- Title A name given to the resource Rules and Regulations and Articles of Association of Oak Grove Cemetery (p. 9) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/cd54638311a6bc36f2e03aac6b686ea8.jpg 3ebf119744a1acbb3f12148c224b96d6 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It is certain that no site as eligible as this, in location, accessibility, distance, picturesque views, variety of surface, and as appropriately timbered, can be procured at all. Your committee most decidedly recommend the establishment of a Rural Cemetery, for these, among other reasons. It is in accordance with man's nature, as well as the instinct of the age, to ornament and beautify the sleeping places of the dead. We have all seen the evi- dences of this propensity of the heart, in the turfing of the little hillock, the planting of the rose, the ivy, the evergreen, and beautiful flowers, over the spot where lies the well-remembered dead. With this feeling so strongly implanted in our nature, it is difficult to understand why we appropriate so sparingly of the surface of the earth for the purpose of burial, and especially such public, naked and bleak spots as is custom- ary. It was not always thus; for it was "the field of Ephron,...the field and the cave which was therein, and all the trees which were in the field, and those that were in all the borders round about," that the affectionate heart of the old patriarch, Abraham, prompted him to seek as a "burial place" for "Sarah, his wife." How strangely does this Scriptural picture contrast with the burial places found all over the country, without even an exception until recently ! It is the taste of most persons to visit the graves of the departed-- the places consecrated to memory--and the influence of such practice is unquestionably felt in developing the better feelings of our nature, in chastening the heart and softening down its rough asperities. Let something, then, be done to make attractive these dwelling places of our friends. Let the beauties of nature be fully opened and developed, and combined with the skill of the sculpter, the genius of the architect, and the taste of the florist, to beautify and adorn them. Let the invalid and all others anticipating death, have no other thought than a burial in some sweet, secluded spot, where the green lawn, the spreading oak and bending elm, the cooling shade and rippling water, the rustling leaves and the wild bird's song, and indeed, all the sweet voices of Nature, Title A name given to the resource Rules and Regulations and Articles of Association of Oak Grove Cemetery (p. 10) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/e4a79c02c1081c0112be97945832fcad.jpg ae336e7c72f7183cb893189fb31b69f2 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Your committee, therefore, recommend the adoption of some plan for the purchase of the "Kilbourne Farm," and its improvement for the purposes of a Rural Cemetery. The Report and its recommendations were approved by the meeting, and the same committee were further instructed to report a plan for the organization of a Cemetery Association, to carry into effect the recom- mendations just adopted. On July 13th, 1850, articles of association were adopted and signed by R. Hills, C. C. Chamberlain, D. F. McCullough, James Eaton, B. Powers, T. W. Powell, R. N. Jones, Geo. F. Stayman, C. Hills, C. Platt, E. Moore, S. Rheem, A. A. Welch, Hosea Williams and S. M. Littell; and on August 10th, 1850, by Geo W. Campbell, Geo. Woods Little, W. S. Little, M. L. Griffin, G. W. Stark, II. Van Horn, Asahel Welch and S. Finch. At this meeting, August 10, 1850, Dr. R. Hills, C. C. Chamberlain, James Eaton, B. Powers and D. F. McCullough, were elected Trustees of the Association, and C. Platt, Clerk. This Board was subsequently further organized by the election of Dr. R. Hills as President, and Benj. Powers as Treasurer. A resolution was adopted to organize the Association under the gen- eral act of the Legislature, chartering Cemetery Associations, dated Feb. 24, 1848. A Constitution and By-Laws were adopted. The land was pur- chased of Mr. Kilbourne for the sum of $1,550. The Board decided upon borrowing the sum necessary to meet the first payment of purchase money, and with which to commence improvements. They also decided to improve and dedicate only about thirty acres at present, it being the northern portion of the tract. R. Hills, T. W. Powell and Jas. Eaton, were appointed a committee to lay out the grounds into sections, lots, carriage avenues, walks, &c.

The impressive ceremony of Dedication was held in the grove, in the north-western portion of the grounds, at 10 o'clock on Thursday, July 20, 1851. The day was a beautiful one, and the concourse of citizens large and attentive. The first burial in the Cemetery was on the day of dedication, imme- diately after the ceremonies of the occasion. An amiable old lady, Mrs. McCracken, who had lived just her allotted time of threescore years and ten, was thus fitly appointed by Providence to lead in this place "the way of all flesh."

[This address was mostly a history of the Association, with a general statement of the action of the Board of Trustees, past and prospective. Of the past action a brief statement has already been given, and need not be repeated. Of the latter, it alluded to certain improvements de- cided upon, and in contemplation by the Board, among which was the hedging of the grounds with the Osage Orange so far as practicable, a nursery having been already started for that purpose. A section of ground, something less than one acre, immediately adjoining the en- trance, and upon the right of it, had been reserved, upon which to erect a Gate Lodge, or residence for the superintendent of the grounds. A circular spot of about 900 feet in circumference, on the highest sum- mit of the Ground, and near the front--a most beautiful situation for the purpose--had also been reserved upon which to erect a chapel-- probably at some distant period of time. Allusion was also made to the general principles upon which the Association was based, the provisions of the Charter, the Constitution and By-Laws, and the impression corrected, that a few persons professed to have receieved, to the effect that the Association was established in part as a monetary speculation by a few individuals--the profits from the sales of lots to accrue to them. This was clearly shown to be erro- neous; that all purchasers of lots became part owners of the property, endowed with all the rights and privileges of others, in proportion to the extent of their purchase; that all profits must be applied to the pay- Title A name given to the resource Rules and Regulations and Articles of Association of Oak Grove Cemetery (p. 14) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/ea275db2fc48a094de23b0f9db6ea26f.jpg eeb934e2504fe98ae8cb45871f502980 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The address closed with an announcement, that preparations were now completed for the sale of lots, and an appropriate allusion was made to the first burial upon the grounds, which was to take place on that same day.] DEDICATORY ADDRESS, By the Rev. F. MERRICK, Professor in the Ohio Wesleyan University. "DUST THOU ART, AND UNTO DUST SHALT THOU RE- TURN," was the fiat of Him with whom alone are the issues from death, when the first human pair had by transgression provoked his just displeasure. And from the day the decree went forth even until now, death has swayed his sceptre over the nations, and laid low in the grave each succeeding generation. No age, no circumstances have shielded from his remorseless blow. The infant, sleeping upon its mother's breast, has opened its eyes to close them in the sleep of the grave. The bloom of health upon the cheek of youth has faded, the strength of manhood bowed at the approach of the destroyer, while old age has tottered on its way to the tomb.

Kings have laid aside their robes of royalty, for the habiliments of the tomb; and the beggar in his rags has been borne to his final resting place. The warrior, death's most faithful ally, has at last himself fallen before the mighty archer. The student in his retirement, the man of business in the public mart, the Christian in his closet, and the sensualist in his place of debauch, has each met the dread summons, and passed away. Amid the soft zephyrs of spring, the sultry heats of summer, the decay of autumn, and the frosts of winter, death alike has reveled. "Leaves have their times to fall, And flowers to wither at the north wind's breath, And stars to set : but all-- Thou hast all seasons for thine own, O Death!" Since, therefore, death must pass upon all, it is meet we should provide a suitable spot as the last resting place for the mortal remains of ourselves and friends. I say suitable spot, for since death is an event of so much interest, it cannot be a matter of indifference where rest the sleeping dead. But to select and pre- pare such a spot is no easy task. He who attempts it, should have correct views of life, death, and immortal- ity. He should know what it is to shed the tear of Title A name given to the resource Rules and Regulations and Articles of Association of Oak Grove Cemetery (p. 16) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/77b6795937c978aed78b4cb90a96892f.jpg 12655d6c07e643de87dcc39f45e14950 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

With such views and feelings, he will blend the joy- ous and the sad; for death must ever be regarded as a sad event. "Yea, though promises and hopes strive to cheat its sadness: Full of grief, though faith herself is strong to speed the soul; For the partner of its toil is left behind, to endure the ordeal of change." Men have, indeed, in all ages labored hard to disarm death of his terrors. They have greeted his approach with songs, have decked his victims with flowers, and filled their resting place with cheerful light. Poesy has sung of the quiet of the grave, and satirized the fear of death; while philsophy has recommended a cheer- ful submission to the unavoidable decision of fate. "Still death is terrible--the tear, The groan, the knell, the pall, the bier, And all we know, or dream, or fear Of agony, are his." And the grave--where the eye, the cheek, and the lip of beauty fade, and where the lovely form moulders back to dust--tell me not it has no gloom, nor forbid the falling tear. Hence, thou cold philosopher and dreamy poet, until ye have learned the language of nature, and then ye will bid me stand with the Saviour beside a brother's grave and weep.

But thanks be to God, through whose word "life and immortality are brought to light." "Thy daed men shall live; together with my dead body shall they arise," is its glorious announce- ment. Yes, the grave shall unloose its prisoner, and the ocean's depth uncover the sleeper upon its coral bed. To those who sleep in Christ, there comes a morn of gladness,-- "When love's soft dew o'er every eye Shall shed its mildest rays, And the long silent dust shall burst With shouts of endless praise." Then should the place of sepulture have its lonely glen and sunny hill-side. There should fall the shade of the cypress, the laurel, and the willow; and there, too, should bloom the amaranth, the lily, and the rose. How well adapted is this spot to the use to which we this day dedicate it-- "Midst holy prayers, and generous grief, and consecrating blessings," I need not say. All must feel that, when completed, it will harmonize sweetly with the feelings of the hopeful mourner.

[NOTE.--Everything erected of wood is quickly perishable, and soon assumes that dilapidated condition of which every common grave yard has many examples, as perfect eye-sores. Better, a great deal, that there be no enclosed lots; especially as the entire grounds are to be well protected. The Board desire in the very start to suppress and prevent these destructives of beauty. Much more beautiful, more permanent, and far cheaper enclosures can be made of little hedges of some favorite shrub, either deciduous or evergreen. Or expensive ones may be made of stone and iron, of chains, of wire, &c. The Board, through their officers, will be able and willing to furnish suggestions upon these subjects to those desiring them.] 5. Two or more lots may be included in one en- closure, by arrangement between owners. [NOTE.--The cost of enclosing will thus be cheapened, and the general good effect in appearance will oftentimes be increased. Relatives and neighbors might often be induced to make their selections of lots with this view.] 6.Proprietors of lots may improve and adorn their lots, and the adjoining borders, with trees, shrubs, plants, hedges, &c.; but all such improvements must have the sanction of the Board of Trustees or their agents.

Proprietors of lots may build any suitable monu- ment or monuments thereon, provided that no slab- stone placed upright shall be more than two and a half feet in height, and it is recommended that they be placed so as to face the avenues. [NOTE.--The Board are sensible that they will come in con- flict with past custom and practice in this rule more than in any other. One intention is, to do away entirely with the ordinary thin slab head-stone, as a monument which, though well enough in a crowded, old fashioned grave-yard, with its military style of order and precision, is entire unsuited to the character of a rural, picturesque Cemetery. This can only be appreciated fully by those who have seen the latter; and time will be requisite to reconcile the minds of many to the requirements of the rule. But eventually all will acknowledge the propriety of the restriction. The position of the stone, and impliedly that of the grave, is also of importance. That graves should be dug at a uniform point of the compass, and the head-stones and monuments be placed cor- respondingly, without reference to the locality and direction of avenues, is incompatible with the general design and object; and the idea of a rural Cemetery might as well be abandoned, if this were permitted. The Board will be provided with plans and de- signs of monuments with which to aid persons in deciding with true taste and judgment before any outlay. A plan has recently been introduced of erecting what is termed a "family monument," to be placed in the centre or front of the lot, to contain the re- cords for those buried around, and blank spaces for additional Title A name given to the resource Rules and Regulations and Articles of Association of Oak Grove Cemetery (p. 34) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/7a0e1fc3539a5ffae6e31e5142657e08.jpg e90bae18552e87e5aca6828507816a6f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 28] [corresponds to page 26 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Resolutions We recognize that education must include three phases of life, the physical, the mental, and the moral. Each must be developed to make the perfect man. The Board of Education has observed with pleasure the splendid work of our basketball team in the tournament just closed, and we desire at this time to express our appreciation of their great achievement in this, the greatest contest of its kind ever held. We watched eagerly game after game in which D.H.S. participated during the two days and evenings of the southern division contest. With enthusiasm unbounded we saw the Orange and Black emerge victors over the crack teams of Piqua and Xenia. At the end of the sixth round of contests, with seventy-seven teams of this division defeated, there remained but two undefeated teams, Delaware and Greenfield. This of itself was a signal honor for Delaware and for each member of the team. Probably the hardest fought game of the tourna- ment was the Delaware-Piqua game. Piqua came to Delaware with the season's record of unbroken vic- tories. Having vanquished everything she met in southwestern Ohio, she came with high hopes of state championship honors. Perhaps the greatest exhibition of individual self-control and skill ever seen in a high school basketball game was shown by Captain Turney at the close of this battle. The score was a tie. Piqua fouled Delaware. The pis- tol cracked. Time up. And in the presence of 2500 people Captain Turney took his position in front of the basket. The fate of Delaware rested on his ability to drop the ball through the basket. Indif- ferent to the breathless condition of his tense audi- ence, and with the utmost skill and precision, he dropped the ball through the center of the basket, thus winning the game for Delaware. The defeat of Greenfield by Delaware and the Mt. Vernon championship game are fresh in the minds of all. To stand with one foot on the top- most round of the ladder and have the vanquished host of more than one hundred and fifty of the best teams in Ohio look up at you with admiration, is an enviable position for any team to attain. Every member of the team deserves his full share of cred- it. Such eminence in athletics can be attained only by the best team work. We realize that no school can put such a team in the field without a faithful second team ever ready and willing to scrimmage with the first. With all these things our efforts would come to naught without a competent, en- thusiastic coach. This we have had in the person of Mr. Mahon. The loyal support of the student body has also been an important factor. You have brought honor to your high school and to the city of Delaware. Therefore, be it resolved by the Delaware City Board of Education, that we extend to the Delaware High School basketball team and Coach Mahon our heartiest congratula- tions for the excellent record you made in the re- cent basketball tournament. We want the boys and girls to know that we are deeply interested in your welfare and will do everything in our power to ad- vance the interests of this high school and its in- ter-school contests. C. A. MORRISON, President. CHAS. S. MASON, Vice President. R. K. WILLIS, Clerk. Next Year's Captain Next year's football captain, Scott Radcliffe, was chosen at a banquet given by Coach Mahon soon af- ter the close of the season. Scott, who is well known for his ability in breaking up the opponent's plays, is a find selection for the captaincy, and, because he is athletic editor of the Bulletin, nothing was said about his good work. There will be five "D" men missing from the squad next year, but if everyone takes the interest that I know the captain and coach manifest, there will be another successful football season. -HAROLD SPAULDING, '22. 26 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 28) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/ad76d025b7bb785290a54e80837a660d.jpg 057c5ab29f632dbc5c9eec645e63c12b Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 30] [corresponds to page 28 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin [photograph of basketball team] Basketball '21-'22 Delaware High started its 1921-1922 basketball season under the direction of Coach Mahon with three "D" men, Captain Spaulding, Turney, and High- warden. With this firm foundation upon which to build a team, the prospects for the coming season looked very bright. The first game was played with Hyatts on the Delaware court. Spaulding was the only man on the Delaware team that could locate the basket, and due to the exceptional playing of Hill from Hyatts, the home team was sent down to defeat. The next game was played in Crestline where Delaware, with Perry as star, was victor by a 21-14 score. The fol- lowing week we suffered defeat at Galion in a close- ly fought contest, which was won only after a neces- sary overtime period. Following our defeat at Galion we made a great comeback and defeated both Ashland and South High of Columbus on our own floor. Perry was high point man in the Ashland contest and Turney proved best in the South High game. Following this last game our team became se- verely crippled. Perry and Highwarden were tem- porarily unable to play, and Spaulding was forced out of the game for the rest of the season on ac- count of illness. We suffered several straight de- feats, and only rallied in the last schedule game of the season, defeating Harding 33-13, thus revenging ourselves for our defeat at their hands earlier in the season. After the close of the schedule season the team worked hard for two solid weeks in preparation for the tournament. This extra training was not in vain, for Delaware won six straight games in the prelim- inaries of the southern division and came back the next week-end to play in the finals. Piqua and Xenia, two of the best teams in the southern divi- sion, fell prey to our superior team work. Turney was the main factor in pulling us through, and his ability at shooting baskets, as well as his exception- ally fine floor work, won him a place on the All- State team. Commendable mention must also be made of the unusual guarding of Highwarden which placed him securely on the second All-State. In the game for the championship of Southern Ohio the following week we were matched against the strong Greenfield aggregation. here again Turney played one of the best games of his basketball ca- reer, and we emerged with the long end of a 34-14 score, leaving us to play Mount Vernon in the finals for the championship of Ohio. The championship game was played before the largest audience ever assembled in Edwards Gym- nasium. We have no alibi to offer for our defeat. Mount Vernon had the better team, and won the game and honor by a 33-17 score. We are proud to have met such a team as Mount Vernon, for they deserved their victory; at the same time we cannot forego an expression of our own pride in the team that won the championship of Southern Ohio. -SCOTT RADCLIFFE. 28 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 30) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/662d4120cf2d7561bef720fc0ee7a332.jpg 563a47bd3df1eed8b899e4f54b23908d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 31] [corresponds to page 29 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin [photograph of football team] Football, 1921 A promising outlook greeted the opening of D.H.S. football season: Seven "D" men with a host of new material, many of whom had played before, reported for the first work-out. In past years we had great difficulty in securing a coach, and generally took whomever we could get. This trouble was obviated by the election of Mr. George Mahon to the faculty corps. This former Wesleyan star joined our school as teacher of Mathematics, athletic director and coach. Under this new system, both coach and stu- dents have taken greater interest in sports. After two weeks' hard practice, we were met by the strong aggregation from South High of Colum- bus, and defeated 7-0. The following week, we went to Columbus, where we played Aquinas, another Capital City team, and, through a few costly fumbles, we came home with the small end of a 13-0 score. Smarting under our two defeats, we prepared for the Ashland game, with the determination to bring about a vicotry--and so we did--for they were put away with a disheartening 28-0 tally. The stellar playing of Turney and Highwarden brought about this victory. Next came Mansfield. They were determined to avenge the defeat of their neighbor, Ashland, but in this they were disappointed, for we tucked them away with the stinging defeat of 24-19. This was one of the best games played on teh local field in years, and the team received great praise from the papers and from the town fans. The exceptionally good playing of Turney and Spaulding was the fea- ture of this contest. The following week we played Galion in another home game. We were unable to repeat the work of the preceding Saturday and they were our victors by the unhappy margin of 28-7. Through the good work of Spaulding and Highwarden, we succeeded in getting one touchdown. Because of a heavy snowfall, it seemed as if our season were temporarily at a standfill. This condi- tion hindered our practice but little, however, and the fellows, determined to put Bucyrus under cover, practiced early and late, regardless of the weather. The contest was staged at Bucyrus on a snow-cov- ered field. Unfortunately, the team was greatly crippled by the absence of Highwarden and Sands, who were laid up on account of injuries received in previous games. The loss of these men drove the team to fight harder than ever to overcome this de- ficiency, and although Delaware outplayed their op- ponents, they lost their only chance to score when Turney collided with the goal post. The game ended with a 0-0 score. We journeyed to Zanesville the following week, where we played in a sea of mud; but the boys didn't seem to mind this, and, due to the ability of Turney and Spaulding to cross their opponents' goal-line, we brought home the bacon. The ensuing Saturday we met Marion on their home field and suffered our first defeat from them in years. We finished the season by defeating the Alumni 7-0 in our annual Turkey-day game. -SCOTT RADCLIFFE. 29 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 31) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/9055f23d08e01c127fbf0931f163f565.jpg b3703889693d3fc565a9ea4a40164be5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 32] [corresponds to page 30 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin [photograph of girls' basketball team] Girls' athletics in D.H.S. started off in fine shape under the direction of Miss Marjorie Crimm, our coach of 1921. After many hard practice games, teams were picked from the excellent material of each class squad, all working hard to perfect their passwork and basket-shooting in anticipation of the third annual basketball tournament. This event was started by a series of preliminary games, played every week. The first two were played between the Seniors and Juniors, followed by a Sophomore- Freshman game. The outcome of these games was in favor of the Seniors and Sophomores. The sec- ond two games of the series were between the Se- niors and Freshmen, and the Juniors and Sopho- mores; in these contests the Seniors again were victors and the Juniors on good footing. Next came the semi-finals, which were played with much pep and enthusiasm by all classes. The upper classes, kept always on the jump, won by hard playing, thus bringing them together for the final and decisive game. Everyone on the teams adhered to strict training; more careful practice and coaching was gone through, and much interest displayed. In the last and long looked-forward-to game, the Junior team won by a score of 14 to 8, thus winning the championship. A consolation game followed be- tween the Sophomores and Freshmen in which the "Sophs" got the long end of a 12 to 2 score. The usual stunts between halves showed much originality and humor in their portrayal of old- fashioned customs, a mock girls' basketball game, and a pipe-organ performance.

Description An account of the resource [page 34] [corresponds to page 32 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Affirmative Debate Team [photographs] Dorothy Whipple Beverly Kelley Elizabeth Hoffman Harold Stephens The past debate year in Delaware High School has been successful from two standpoints: first, in the number of points scored, and second, in the devel- oping of six excellent debaters. The goal of the debaters and coaches has been not to win decisions alone, but the important aim was turning out from D.H.S. clear thinkers, and young men and women who would understand the value of hard work as well as constructive mental discipline. This we believe has been accomplished. In following this as a purpose we were most for- tunate in having Mr. Harold W. Roupp from Ohio Wesleyan University, who is an experienced debater, as our coach and instructor. Although we did not win the silver cup we scored four out of a possible six points. There is a gen- eral feeling among the High School students that the decision of the Marion-Delaware debate was un- warranted. However, the team offers no apology, believing with the audience, that they had won the debate even though the decision was against them.

And feeling as we do about it, we wish to urge more students to go out for this forensic activity next year. It is important that the school show well in mental as well as physical com- bat. There are three chief reasons why Delaware High was successful during the past year: first, we receiv- ed excellent coaching from Miss Phillips and Mr. Roupp; second, the teams were not afraid of hard work; and third, we knew that the school was be- hind us, wishing us to do our best and win. The year of 1923 will see three seasoned debaters back in school. Our best wishes to next year's team. We hope they will be even more successful than we have been, and win the silver loving cup for Dela- ware High. -JOHN BEAL.

In order to be truthfully rated as a first class high school we should have such a library. We consider the action of the recently graduated class- es in devoting their money to the equipment of a high school reference room as very commendable. Our aesthetic sense has been cultivated by the pic- tures and statues which former classes have donat- ed, and now we are glad for the practical develop- ment afforded by the funds raised in more recent years. Many school activities have contributed to this cause, and the collection is growing quite large. The class of 1918 gave four beautiful oak library tables. One hundred and ninety-four dollars was donated by the class of 1919 for books. Among these volumes is a set of New International En- cyclopedias, a Dictionary, and forty dollars worth of other books. The Bulletins of the years of 1919, 1920, and 1921 have altogether given $333.33. The interest from the high school Liberty bond is being used for the collection. We must not overlook the manual training boys who have made the fine book shelves. The total sum amounts to $626.45. Thus we see that the library is well under way, and we expect that it will be in good working order by next year. The Hayes Centennial When the news came that Warren G. Harding had been elected by an overwhelming majority to the Chief Executive Office, enthusiasm and excite- ment prevailed here not only because another Pres- ident had been added to Ohio's long list of famous sons, but because his residence is only twenty miles away from our city. That was all very well; but we cannot help wondering whether or not one hundred years from now Marion will have forgotten that she was, in 1921, the center of the nation's interest, and will have allowed her now most honored residence to be neglected and run down. This will be the case if Marion follows the example of her neighbor, Delaware. It seems to us that since this is the cen- tennial anniversary of the birth of Rutherford Birch- ard Hayes, the citizens of Delaware should begin to recognize that his birthplace is here, and in a very deplorable condition. Surely all right think- ing people will realize that this fact does not re- flect credit on our town. Patriotism to our nation as well as to our city demands that we remedy this condition. Are the pupils of Delaware High School going to allow our old time rivals to get ahead of us even in showing respect to a native President? We think that our point will be appreciated if we conclude this article by the familiar phrase, "Yea Delaware! Beat Marion"! Tennis Courst for the High School Tennis, one of the most interesting games in the great field of athletics, is becoming more and more popular in this country. Courts are being construct- ed in every vacant lot and old garden patch. There are many things to recommend this game; one is that anyone can play it. It does not take a robust person; neither does it take a tall one, as do other sports. Tennis is a game every student should play for mental reasons as well as physical.

Description An account of the resource [page 38] [corresponds to page 36 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin mind is needed to understand and play the game well. To be a good player one must be accurate and must use very good judgment at all times. Physically, it gives every muscle its proper exercise. It occasions no overdoing, strained muscles or brok- en bones as do almost all other athletics. An acci- dent can be blamed on no one but the player him- self. What would be better for the high school than good tennis courts? The school has access to a very good football field and a fine basketball court; and now that tennis is becoming so popular, why not have courts? The question, that might enter one's mind, where can ground be found on which to construct them? can be thrown aside. The high school owns a lot back of the building which is large enough for two good courts, and is in a fine location. What good is that idle ground doing for us? Why not have it changed into something use- ful and helpful to the student? A Young Genius An event took place on the evening of May 2 which once more justifies Delaware High's reputation for contributing to the world and which gives the class of '23 ample cause to be very proud of a fellow mem- ber. This event was the piano recital given by Dale Bartholomew at Sanborn Hall. From the first ex- quisite note until the last, the large audience was literally held spellbound. Dale conducted himself like a true virtuoso, with not a trace of self-con- sciousness in his manner, holding the instrument al- ways under perfect control. Beginning with Rach- maninoff's "Prelude in G Minor," he played selec- tions from Chopin, Schumann, Rubenstein, Liszt, and Grieg. His fingers touched the keys lightly or firmly as his interpretation of the selections varied, but there was always that fullness and delicacy of tone which mark the true artist. His technique throughout was practically faultless. There were present at the concert several in- structors in music of the college and they were equally well pleased with the success and well-de- served praise of the young musician. We of Delaware High School appreciate more than ever before Dale's talent and ability and his ser- vices in the Choral Class and Glee Club. He is un- doubtedly destined for the highest success in the musical world, and he has the very best wishes of both the faculty and the pupils of Delaware High School for the coming years. Honor Member of Class of '22 It is not very often in a life time that one finds within his own circle of acquaintances a young ge- nius so brilliant that he is recognized by those ex- perienced in his art, and is given an opportunity for a swift and remarkable career. This was the reali- zation to which the students of Delaware High School awoke when Bernard Schweitzer appeared suddenly as one of the brightest and most promis- ing among the young explorers in the realm of mu- sic. The student body has twice had the opportun- ity of hearing Bernard sing since he took up his study in Chicago, and has been delighted to mark his progress. We are very proud of him because he is one of our number, and because he received part of his training, and, we hope, a great deal of his inspiration while under the influence of our own school. Had Bernard remained longer with us, he would have graduated with this year's class. After hearing him render most inspiringly the famous "Hosanna" anthem, the Holy Name Cathe- dral of Chicago succeeded in securing his services. To appreciate the honor implied in this, we must consider that the very greatest of singers have ac- cepted invitations to sing in this cathedral. So, fellow classmate, we wish you a realization of your greatest hopes. We also look forward to that day when we shall hear you in a greater hall than the chapel of D.H.S.

Description An account of the resource [page 40] [corresponds to page 38 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin A Fantasy Prone on the sun- warmed sand, just out of reach of the breakers, A Boy with a Suf- fering Heart lay thoughtfully gaz- ing upward. Sprinkling the stones with dew and filling the air Back of the first great dune in a cottage low in the valley, Sick, and dying with care, his mother lay stricken with fever; Hers was the grief of the world, the down-trodden world of the helpless. All night long he had watched, till his eyes grew heavy with vigil, And now, as at length she slept, he lay thinking and pond'ring and planning. Was there not some way he, though his years one might count on ten fingers, Might bring, in his own small way, glad joy to the heart of the sufferer? Coax long-vanished smiles to her lips, as his own smiles might seem in reflection? Wearied with sorrow and care, and lulled by the swish of the sea-surf, His thoughts turned to happier paths, and his eyes closed gently in slumber. Suddenly faint in his ear a weird cry roused him to action. "Look!" it cried, "Look, ye, lad, for magic abides in yon castle!" The Boy with the Suffering Heart first glanced, then gazed in amazement. Afar, where the dune had been a castle rose sheer to the heavens. Silver and gold were its walls, and its windows gleamed brighter than jewels. Its towers were wreathed in mist that sparkled like dew on the hawthorne. Nearer and nearer he drew. Urged on by a great fascination He mounted its Parian steps, and paused not, but en- tered its portals. Suddenly, born on the breeze, came the same weird voice from the ether. "Mortal, guard well thy tongue, for ne'er since the last king of Egypt Died by the hand of the dream folk, those guardians who watch o'er the castle For sland'ring the name of the wardens, has mortal e'er glimpsed this great vision. Thou of the Suffering Heart must cherish and honor the privilege. What thou wilt see beyond is not for the scorn of the rabble. Its sight must be earned by faith and kindness and thoughts of endearment." Urged by the same fascination, and quickened by glad expectation That some how in some strange way the dream folk would answer his problem, He raced down the long light hall till two doorways rose, thwarting his passage. One opened on sunlit halls where fountains played gayly and lightly, Sprinkling the stones with dew and fillin gthe air with sweet perfume. Round it the flowers sprang, holding their cups to its showers, Like a rare rug for the trees, which teemed with the sweetest of songsters. Rose and lily and fern played hide and seek with the thrushes. Gayly in and out, in the shade, 'mongst the birds and the flowers Dancing in gay attire were the mystical, care-free dream folk. Blue were their eyes as the sky, and their hair shone like gold in the sunlight, Clothed in shimmering white, richly embroidered with purple, Azure and saffron and rose, with the green of wee leaves in the springtime. Spellbound he stood in the door, nor quivered, till roused by the weird voice, He let his gaze slowly be turned, till it fell on the opposite doorway. Startled with horror and pain he choked back a sob e'er it 'scaped him. For as he gazed within, till his eyes grew used to the dead light He saw not a thing but space, as black as a cellar at midnight. Gradually came into view the skull of a man, with its jaw bone Cruelly broken across, and beside it a chest filled with treasure; Here hung a hang-man's rope still looped in the death-knot of slaughter; Here was a gibbet; beneath, the mouldering bones of its victims. Turning away in disgust, he stepped toward the doorway of dreamland. When suddenly both doors were gone, and he was 38 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 40) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8f6214f497cca3f3b9f638c0e3e4c685.jpg df678bcd50e6fbe78e9a6b52377c609c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

He sank to the floor in his grief, and his sobs broke the silence of ages. "Why can't it all be like that, all beauty, and glory, and radiance?" An agonized sigh shook his frame, his heart was breaking with sorrow. Suddenly faint but clear, the weird voice, softened to music Fell on his heart like balm, then ceased he his weep- ing to listen. "Oh, Boy of the Suffering Heart, hearken to all that I tell you. You in your innocent grief, have stumbled on life's greatest lesson. The castle you now are within holds the secret of human endeavor; Yon rooms were the souls of men, some good, some teeming with evil. "Long ago in this hall, ere began the great cycle of ages, The wrong of the world was confined, till arose a great monster named Rumor Who broke through the heavy barred walls and freed from their bonds of confinement The spirits of evil and sin, who now roam the wide world at random. But alas, as he broke through the wall, a stone shak- en loose from its moorings Stopped up the door of gold, and blocked that pas- sage forever. Wearily watching and waiting, year after year with- out number, The guardian sprites of the hall have searched for a mortal, a human Who could roll the stone from the door and free all good from its burden. Thrice have they tried and failed, thrice turned anew to their mourning. "Now we have welcomed you with the hope which seems beyond hoping, That a Boy with a Suffering Heart, urged on by un- selfish emotions, Might say the potent word that would loose the stone from the portal. Speak the wish nearest your heart. I go, for I dare not stay longer." A cry of joy on his lips, the Boy, no longer dejected, Sprang like a dart to his feet--"Aid, help for my suffering mother!" A flash of light, a whirl, a sound of echoing music, A blurr of mingled hues as the dream folk rushed on toward the doorway. Blinded and dazed and stunned, the Boy fell tremb- ling, startled. The harsh stones turned to sand he was back again by the sea side. The breakers were loud and fierce, steadily rain- drops were falling. Stumbling and weak in his haste, the lad rushed on toward the cottage. The dream folk were free at last, but where, oh, where had they vanished? "Look," came the low weird voice, "Look to the west- ward and southward." He turned then stopped in amazement, a glad cry burst forth from his bosom, "Mother, oh, mother, look, the dream folk, high in the heavens!" High in the arch of ether, where the clouds were broken asunder, The sun shone through on the mist, and the air was tinted to purple, Azure and saffron and rose, with the green of wee leaves in the springtime. His mother turned on her couch, with the weary look of the dying, But as she looked at the tinted arch, her pain be came gladness, The gray lines left her face, she sank back pale and exhausted But now to grow stronger each hour, for a promise of good everlasting, A token of dream folk faith was this rainbow arch in the heavens. Prone on the sun warmed sand, just out of reach of the breakers, A Boy with a Happy Heart, lay thoughtfully gazing upward. Back of the first great dune, in a cottage low in the valley, Weak, but happy, and stronger each hour, his moth- er lay sleeping. The Boy with the Happy Heart as he lay there lulled by the sea surf, Freed from his heavy care, closed his eyes softly in slumber. Faint through his dreams, there came, the low weird tones of the dream folk, "Saved by his generous wish, we promise him peace everlasting." Ages have come and gone, but oft in the sky of a summer, After a heavy shower, comes the rainbow, the pledge of the dream folk. -CHARLOTTE RICE, '22. 39 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 41) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/6bc3ed7b96bcd4bf4baf7f5ad9684004.jpg 255dfbeb84f569bae351670c94743865 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 42] [corresponds to page 40 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin The Amateur Househusband Henry Obstinate, a father and husband, who be- came exasperated because Mrs. Minerva Obstinate put in a plea for a clothes-wringer and, having re- ceived it, untactfully sent in a similar plea for a washing-machine, quite boldly declared he could take care of the house as a recreation. Wise Mrs. Obstinate refrained from pressing her desire and Henry went to his club; but when he returned to his peaceful realm, he was informed by note that his practical wife thinking he needed a period of re- creation, had gone to her old home in order to per- mit him to enjoy the needed rest. She left the chil- dren, Mary and John, to keep him from getting lone- some during the many hours in which he would be unoccupied with household duties. Monday morning dawned radiant and calm, but Henry slept serenely on. At the late hour of eight, John and Mary anxiously arose and surveyed their audacious parent. Why hadnt he called them? They dressed for school with unusual hilarity. Presently, vociferous sounds issued from above. "Why hasn't Minerva called me?" shrieked Henry as he came panting down the stairs. Then he re- membered his spouse had departed for a time. Well, he would show "Min"! He commenced his "recrea- t'on" by laboriously trying to comb and braid Mary's hair. What a mess! How did "Min" do it? He final- ly disposed of that incident by leaving her hair un- braided and tying an awkward-looking bow around it. Much to his chagrin, he discovered that it was too late for the children to go to school. After one-half hour of swearing and wrestling he had three eggs fried, but Mary and John refused to eat theirs because he had stirred the fire with the egg-turner, then turned the eggs! In the midst of the confusion of the children's crying, the eggs pop- ping, and Henry hopping around with his hair in his eyes, at the same time nursing a burnt hand, the tele- phone rang. "Hello! Hello!! Hello!!!" shouted Henry. Slam! Went the receiver followed by a tor- rent of profane language. "It is ten o'clock and you haven't started the washing yet. 'Min' always had it done by nine o'clock," reminded Henry's conscience. He dutifully gathered up as many dirty clothes as he could find, promising himself he would wash the breakfast dishes with the dinner dishes. He had a vivid recol- lection of a boiler of water which he had been in the habit of putting on for "Min," so he put a boiler full of water on the stove and piled the clothes in. By the time this was accomplished it was time to get dinner in order to give the younger Obstinates something to eat before they started to school. With one hand burnt and his disposition badly injured, Henry rumaged through the cellar and pan- try in a frantic effort to find a cook-book and some- thing to cook. He found some canned goods from which he selected a can of peaches, a can of sweet- potatoes, a can of peas, and a can of salmon. As the "amateur househusband" began slashing reck- lessly into the top of a can, the can-opener undiplo- matically slipped, causing the wielder to gash his hand on the ragged edge of the lid. Howling in anguish, he bound up the cut and proceeded more slowly. Having completed his task, he called the children in to partake of the "tin" dinner. The peas were partially prepared but since the cook couldn't find the cook-book he was not to be censured if things weren't altogether edible. The remainder of the victuals was cold. The younger inmates disposed of, the washing was resumed. As Mr. Obstinate turned to the boil- ing clothes, he looked with awe upon the strangely colored water. He gingerly picked up a garment and after careful inspection recognized his ex-best white shirt, ex-best--for, alas--one sleeve was a dingy black and the front was an elegant mottled red. He limply stood gazing at his neighbor's beau- tiful white shirt, tauntingly waving on the line. Mystified, he hunted for the wash-board and tub; then he went to work. After hours of real labor at the wash-board, in which the only thing that was accomplished was the further disfigurement of his hands and what appeared like the last stages of lumbago in his back, he gave up in despair. He sat down, gazed from the best suit of clothes all wet and dabbed with flour, to his hands all red and blistered, then to the kitchen which looked as though a small tornado had just passed through it. As the victim was brooding over some of the evils in life, the lesser Obstinates trooped in. As usual, they were on the brink of starvation and since it was nearly five o'clock, supper loomed up before Henry's eyes. Supper is generally a soothing thought to most people, but to Henry it was a dancing figure dressed in red and possessing two extremely long, pointed horns which protruded from above either eye. Mary produced a cook-book and Henry donned the chef's cap once more, armed himself with spoons and flour, then proceeded to make biscuits. Now, the neighborhood owned in joint-partnership, three common black cats which had just discovered the Obstinate family's bowl of milk that Henry had so innocently placed on the porch to keep cool. 40 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 42) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/da2d71dfeae1e148a83fa6a6c5e0d166.jpg b0bd343d816db1ed5fb9476c8adc91ad Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Henry ran back into the kitchen--but, alas!--his culinary art, the biscuits, were perfect pictures of mud turtles huddled under their shells, and in fact they felt much the same too!

Sheer Luck Combs An Original Story of Deductive Reasoning By the Author THE MISSING SPARK PLUG Sheer Luck sat in his den deeply engaged in study and profound reflection. He had, just two days be- fore finished deducting the facts in the case of Elu- sive Killem, which on the previous day had led to the arrest of that gentlemen; and now he was try- ing to solve the problem of the capture of Slim Jim by the Bingville police force. The butler entered and handed him a card an- nouncing Miss Billionaires. "Show her in," said Sheer Luck. She entered, tall, stately, and handsome, wearing a dress of the latest production of the designer's art. "What's the trouble?" asked Sheer Luck Combs, unconcernedly. "May I speak confidentially?" asked the beautiful blond. "Sure." "Well, then, I have come to have you solve the intricate problem concerning the missing spark plug in my limousine. You know I had a car made to order with a peculiar spark plug, which cannot be duplicated. If you can keep a secret, I shall tell you one. The Count De von Marrymoney, of Bo- logne, and I were to elope in this very car, so it would be quite provoking to spoil all the romantic sensations by using any other now. My father does not favor my marriage with the count, but of course it would not be romantic if father and mother both agreed to the union." "I see, I see." "But about the spark plug," continued Miss Bil- lionaires, "I always carry that on the end of a gold chain about my neck so no one can drive the car but myself. The plug resembles an antique locket. At night I place it in a small vault which no one knows about except myself. It is in my own room and impossible to be seen, since it is so well con- cealed." "Well, then, you mean to say that it was stolen from your vault last night at twelve o'clock by a person who entered--you know not how--and van- ished even more mysteriously when you sat up in bed." "Wonderful! How did you know?" asked the amazed beauty. "Very simple. I just deducted it from your talk." "Then can you assist me in finding the valuable article?" "Certainly. It is this moment in your father's posession. He has it in his right-hand vest pocket." "But how do you know?" "Since you ask, I shall explain. Your father did not want you to marry the count?" "No." "He knew you were going to elope in your car, because you told your mother and she is a woman. Your father knew that the car had but one spark plug, and he also knew of the vault, because he saw you open it one night when you were unaware of his presence. Mr. Dexterous Sharp, the magician and pickpocket, as well as the contortionist and hypno- tist, wanted to earn two hundred and fifty dollars, so he burglarized your father's house--by his con- sent--and secured the article. It is now in your father's vest pocket, because most men carry valu- ables there, for a while at least." "A wonderful and amazing intellect!" said the swan-like creature. "But how can I secure the plug?" "Give Mr. Sharp five hundred to rob your dad." "Good! I'll do so immediately. But where can I find Mr. Sharp?" "Next room to the right. He's my partner." Thus Uncle Sam lost another billion heiress, but Sheer Luck Combs continues to deduce evidence from nothing, and has a world-wide fame. -EDNA WOOD, '24. 41 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 43) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d3f869cbbf0aa52ab191cece5e65a3c3.jpg 60fcbf668f2c5458e149033ec8e6d719 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 44] [corresponds to page 42 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Joe Strikes for Liberty Not long ago, Mr. Ireland, of the Dispatch, took a trip into Kentucky. The Sunday after his return, the "Passing Show" was filled with cartoons of what he had seen there, and his comments upon them. Among them was a touching little illustration de- picting an old mountaineer climbing up the trail on horseback, while his better half labored along be- hind him on a mule, most dejectedly. It was evi- dently Mr. Ireland's purpose to illustrate the habit- ual position of a mountaineer's lady, and so far as I know, he is right in assuming that the greater por- tion of Kentucky women do shirk along behind their husbands; slaves, living only for their master's pleasure. But there is an exception. Indeed in the case of which I am about to speak, the accepted positions of husband and wife were just reversed. It seems that Joe and Lizzie, his wife, lived in hardworking comfort in a more or less spacious shack on the farm of a well-to-do mountaineer. Liz- zie worked hard, and Joe, spurred on by a stimulus the nature of which only husbands know, did like- wise. Joe's loftiest ambition was to sit around all day in the sun, bare as to feet and vacant as to mind, and with the assurance of three good meals a day and a soft bed at night, watch Lizzie hang out the clothes. Of these, the most longed for privilege and the one most improbable of fulfillment, was that of watching Lizzie hang out the clothes. For whatever part Joe may have had in the weekly rite of washing was emphatically not that of onlooker. In fact he was never idle; if Lizzie didn't want him to help her wash, she ordered him to mind the baby or stir the beans. And Joe, of course, had a man's aversion to all of these housewifely duties. Those who knew the state of affairs at the Tolliver home were fond of telling a story about poor Joe. They said that Mr. Warren, on whose farm Joe's shack stood, had once asked him to help with the hay. Joe, torn between a wholesome awe of his wife and a desire to do a real man's work with real men for the first time in his married life, stumbled and quavered, but finally managed to convey the idea that to pitch hay would be his dearest delight, but he "kinda thought Lizzie wuz washin' today; he didn't know ef she wuz er not, but he reckoned he'd better go ask her fore he decided." So ask her he did, only to find that Lizzie wanted to go to an all-day revival meeting and had decreed that Joe's place was in the home. Lizzie was not particularly diplomatic about it, and she did not realize that every road has a winding. Neither did she realize that Joe was aware of the fact that he was the laughing stock of the community; that he was tired of her ceaseless dominion; and that to his sluggish mind at last had come the realization that he could escape. Ignorant of all these things, how- ever, she went her pious way, never doubting Joe's fidelity. On her return, she found the shack emp- ty; even the baby was gone. Eventually the baby was found asleep by the creek her feet trailing in the water, and Lizzie's anxieties were stilled. Joe could look out for himself. She never thought of him until her beans got burnt from lack of the usual stirring, or on wash day. As for Joe, he was not far away. He had simply gone down the road and across the river to Blue Bonnet, where he got a position in the mines. The hours were short, the pay sufficient, and no one ques- tioned his right to chew his tobacco unceasingly or to sleep whenever he wanted to. He never thought of Lizzie except at meal time, for in spite of her shrewish tendencies, Lizzie was a good cook, and he had always been well fed. But the food now avail- able was not of the best, and no matter if he was plebian in most respects, Joe's stomach was aristo- cratic. Then, too, the work at the mines we begin- ning to pall upon him. Finally, like other great men of history, Joe was conquered by his appetite and he went home to his loving spouse. She greeted him stolidly, betraying no surprise or any other emotion, but Joe was used to that. If he had any qualms, one glance at the clothes-line was enough to dispel them. He said, "Liz, give yuh a dollar a week fer room 'n board." Liz's lips said nothing but her eyes did. In response, Joe drew out one of his dollars. He continued, "One dollar, three meals a day an' room. You 'n me be strangers to one 'nother." He meant by this that he did not intend to do the washing, but he was too delicate to say so. Lizzie agreed, and got her sister to come and pay her a visit. Joe got his three meals, but his room was the kitchen and his bed the floor, for the only other room besides the kitchen was occupied by Liz- zie, her sister, and the baby. In spite of this and a few like draw-backs, Joe was very well pleased, for in his role of stranger and roomer, he was never nagged at or made to stir the beans. But he reached the zenith of his glory when he was the joy of sitting on the grass 42 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 44) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/c6789ab39750f3aa89f52126ae16f032.jpg 43e28cdd2e24138bfdf2f24fbefc23ad Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

All went well for a few weeks, but the time came when the stock of dollars was exhausted. He knew that Lizzie's good food and shelter would be no long- er forthcoming without the weekly dollar. The cold weather, too, was coming on, and the need of shoes was beginning to be felt. Lizzie was adament in her refusal to get out his winter clothing. In her own words, "I ain't a-goin' to let no stranger war my husban's close." In despair, Joe departed once more for the mines, only to find that they were closed. There was no work in the town; Blue Bonnet had settled into its customary winter stupor. Luck was against him wherever he turned. He felt in his ragged pocket for his old standby, his "plug o' tobaccy," and brought his hand out, empty save for one lonely nickel. With it he could have invested in more tobacco but he knew that if he did, the luxury of riding across the river in "the boat" would never be his, for Ma McCoy, the slatternly woman who lived on the opposite bank and whose leaky, home-made skiff was the only ferry, was exacting in her demands for payment. He renounc- ed his longed-for "chaw," signalled to her, and she rowed across and pulled up on the shore. He paid no attention to her shrill command to "stan' up in th' middle, 'n mebbe she'll swarp off'n th' bank better." He was engrossed in his thoughts. All too quickly the skiff reached the opposite shore, his last nickel was in Ma's grimy fist, and he was plodding up the mountain road wondering where his next meal was to come from and where he would sleep that night. To worry was foreign to his nature; he believed, without reasoning, that when the time came a course would open. He became colder and more miserable every min- ute, but at last he approached the shack and turned into the yard. As he went into the kitchen he stum- bled over the baby playing in the dirt in the door- way. Picking her up, he awkwardly soothed her cries and went into the kitchen. A familiar odor greeted his nostrils, a familiar scene, his eyes. Lizzie was washing. He was cold; he was hungry. The room was warm and a kettle of beans boiled on the stove. He looked out the door; the wind was rising and the sky was gray with cold. Joe turned again to the kitchen and, without a word, lifted a tub of dirty clothes to the floor and stepped into it, his feet slopping the warm water and stamping the dirt from the clothes in the fashion approved by the moun- taineer housewives. His zeal was pathetic. Lizzie said nothing; she understood. She disap- peared and presently returned with a pair of clumsy boots and thick sox. "Gittin' cold," she remarked. "Better put on them boots whin yuh git through. Stir th' beans." -ANNE BOOTON, '22 One Saturday in the Ten Cent Store There was a time when the word "clerk" brought to my mind the picture of an untidy, uneducated, and unrefined young woman. However, I have since changed my views and now I realize that, although she may not be a college graduate, the same young lady is clean and intelligent, and often more sens- ible than many of the girls who are graduated from the best university. To be sure much more is demanded of the shop girl today: if she be lacking in intelligence and quick-witted mastery of a situation, she will soon lose her place; she must be able to meet all kinds of people pleasantly; she must be able to understand those who cannot or do not speak clearly; she must be able to make out the numerous reports and lists required by the management; she must be accurate in everything, particularly in accounting for stock, in ringing money in the register, and in making change, for, if she is not accurate, she will probably get such a tongue-lashing from some irate customer that she will flinch for a week. The clerk must always be prompt in the morning and at noon, prompt to wait upon the people and to answer their questions, which are often very fool- ish. She must always have a smile, no matter what may be hidden back of it; she must be polite under all circumstances--a duty which is, I think, the most difficult, because it is human nature to want to speak for one's self, especially if wrongly accused. But the girl behind the counter must smother her feel- ings and calmly listen to anything the customer wishes to say. She must never show impatience even though a lady should take all day to decide whether she wishes a five or a ten-cent pair of shoe 43 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 45) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/f044419dec24fb028c179da4bae13250.jpg fd7b68c823249532ca222d704193238f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

On the other hand the clerk has many pleasures, and enjoys many good times with the other girls. Then, too, there is the enjoyment of work well done and a day well spent. To the school girl, working in the store one day a week is all pleasure, for she does not have any of the hardwork to do; and, be- sides the rest from the monotony of school routine, she has an easy way of getting spending money without having to ask father each time. Furthermore, such work gives one an excellent chance to study kinds of people and characters. There is the flashily dressed young girl who buys a ten-cent box of rouge and takes from her purse a ten-dollar bill with which to pay; and the aristo- cratic lady who looks at all the perfumes and asks, "Is this all the kind of perfume you've got?" In contrast to these types is the poor mother, who looks as if she had not as much as seen a new dress since her wedding day, with a half dozen ragged little chil- dren about her. She has, perhaps, fifty cents in her worn pocket-book, which she spends upon cheap toys and candy for her young brood. There are two types of college girls, the snob and the non-snob. The non-snob wears a pleasing smile and treats the clerk as an equal, while the snob sails along with a high-and-mighty air seeming to think the clerk was made to serve her; and the un- usual part of it is that most often the snob is unbe- comingly dressed, and looks as if she might have a mother at home who, wrinkled and careworn, wash- es in order to earn money enough to give her daugh- ter a good education. Following this "malforma- tion," in a class by herself, is the young business girl who is much more considerate of others and who is a delight to wait upon; she has had some experience with people and knows how the clerk feels. Then comes the young married man whose wife has sent him for a hair net. He doesn't know what color, whether it should be single or double meshed, with or without elastic,--or just a hair net. If she wants some crochet-cotton, the young husband, pick- ing up a spool of black darning cotton, will inquire, "Is this the only color crochet thread you have?" And so on through the whole list of patrons. From the richest to the poorest, from the largest to the smallest, one can tell who and what they are by the way they walk, talk, and act. Although there are many trying incidents, the funny ones are by far the more numerous, and the experience is worth while to any girl, for it helps to broaden her views and make her more thoughtful of others. -ALICE RUSH, '23. The Poet's Belief The realm in which the poet-soul dwells is un- doubtedly a far-away world to the ordinary man. The spirit of poetry bursts forth from a heart,--not from a mind,--a heart that is overflowing with the deepest conceivable passions. An understanding of and a sympathy for the feelings of his fellowmen is a great essential to the true poet, for the readers of his works look not only for pleasure and enjoy- ment from his pen, but rather for a helpful, an up- lifting thought that will duly pay them for the time they spend with him. Many have written jingles, love songs, and dra- matic narrative poems, which have gained much ap- plause; but would these alone suffice if we could not learn to know the poet by the expression of his beliefs? If there be poetry in him, his whole soul summons this expression, whereby we come to know him, and if he can supply us with that uplift- ing, that moving quality for which we have searched, does it not seem that he is near and in fond company with the living God of Wisdom? But what are we to say of two who are recognized as being among the world's best producers of verse, --Homer and Virgil? Their seemingly immortal works bespeak the fact that they must have a god--that is, a source of inspiration, hope, and higher ideals; but was this the Heavenly Father? We have proof, too, that Virgil's belief lay not in one god, but in many gods, not all of whom were faultless. However, the lack of consciousness of divine sym- pathy upon the part of these early composers who had not yet the witness of Christ, forbids the inter- pretation of their real personalities. In the realm of superstition they are lost, and the valuable and interesting material left us by them leaves us with an inexpressible coldness. What a different effect is produced by the cherish- ed memorials of those others who felt the divine touch! How many have been comforted by the soothing melody of the imperishable faith of Tenny- son! His lines "For so the whole round earth is every way Bound by gold chains about the feet of God" are the key to his immense chamber of understand- ing and sympathy. In the possession of these tal- ents, our "Idyll" poet stands not alone, for by his side marches an army of trustful servants, the man- ifestation of whose beliefs in the All-Powerful One is inestimable. In these lines from Lanier's "Marshes of Glynn" "As the marsh hen secretly builds on the watery sod, 44 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 46) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/18394c4b13193cb6f8669b55bd299cd3.jpg f1d3c34cbbd4f2af09d94297f313fab8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A review of the lives of others skilled in the poet- ical art would serve as just examples of the fact that, although undoubtedly they put their faith in some unknown power, this was not always the God of Love. These poems which possess a tendency to draw the soul toward the ethereal realms are the most moving and eternal of these gifts. Those artists whose pens produce these works are, perhaps, God's best instruments for leading the world to Him. Think of the tear-drops and smiles of rejoicing that are prompted by the Psalms and Hymns of those who know Him. And, after all, are not these mere- ly an expression of man's greatest passion, Love? -DOROTHY BARRETT, '22. Lest We Forget Last December Delaware High suffered the loss of one of its best known students when George Noble answered his final summons. He was a mem- ber of '24, loyal and active in every phase of school life. We shall always remember him for his win- ning ways, his manly behavior, and his splendid sense of good fellowship which endeared him to us all. Until the very last, he never gave up the hope that he would be with us again, that he would once more share our good times in D.H.S. We cannot help but feel that his spirit is even now with us in- spiring us to higher endeavor. When we think of the untold agony George went through during the long months of his illness, it seems that, to him, death must have been a God- send. Even when he had reached the valley and only awaited the time when he would solve the mys- teries of the great beyond, he had a kind word and a smile for his friends. It seems that nothing more significant could express his wonderful courage than these few lines: "It's easy enough to be cheerful When life flows along like a song, But the man worth while Is the man with a smile, When everything goes dead wrong." Certainly we who found such a true pal in George can look forward to the time when, after life's for- tunes and misfortunes are set aside, we shall find him awaiting his friends. -BEVERLY KELLEY, '24. Autumn Autumn's train comes dancing, whirling, O'er the summer's sun-baked land, Like a gala-day procession, Like a pageant's motley band. Here a dash of red and yellow; There of purple; yonder, green; Peasant woman's broidered kerchief; Spanish dancer; golden sheen Mingled with rich, royal purple, Truly worthy of a queen. Lasts it all but for a moment; Fleet the vision fades away, Yields its place in turn to Winter, Winter, cold, and drear, and gray. -CHARLOTTE RICE, '22. LaJoie One fleeting glimpse! Far in the billowy clouds The azure tips of my Blue Bird I see. Alas! He, too has gone. But no! Just overhead he turns And darts straight down to me. I close my eyes. I dare not look Upon that joyous symbol. A fluttering faint! And then a rush of azure tips Have brushed my cheek in passing And left me Youth, and Love, And best of all, a Happiness Eternal. -ADELINE WELCH, '22. 45 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 47) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/1f0bde1fd3ad494fa18b263cdc73480a.jpg 79f4df49b45629f58dd83d96ef95112c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

He loved little Lily, white Lullaby Lily, But long upon Lullaby Lake did he sigh Before to his singing, his soft, summer singing, Dear Lullaby Lily would make a reply. Then, out on the ripples, the round-running ripples, The breeze heard the lily's soft voice, as she said, "Oh go to the babies, the bad, bouncing babies, Whose mammas can't soothe them and put them to bed To fat, funny babies, and round, rolly babies, Their little hands clapping, their eyes all aglow; To sad, sighing babies, and wee, wailing babies, Their little lips trembling in wavering woe. One dear little baby, a week, woeful baby, Has found a cool bed under starlight and trees. Oh, go to the mother, the wan, weeping mother, And give her our blessing, sweet, soft, summer breeze; Go carry my perfume, my light, lily perfume, (And mingle the cool of your breath as you blow) To all of the babies, the world-weary babies, Whose little lives long for the summer to go. For I am the lily called Lullaby Lily, And I want my sweetness to make the world glad."

Cuban Dawn I came on watch at midnight, and although the day had been intently hot, the off-sea breeze blow- ing over the deck of the ship had cooled things won- derfully, and now at four o'clock it was delightfully refreshing and without the customary sultriness that gives one that languid sort of feeling that is always felt near Cuba. The breeze which had been blowing practically all night had worn itself out, and in that calm grayness just before the dawn, the ocean as- sumed a mirrored smoothness in its very stillness. There was not a sound save that of my own foot- steps as I walked up and down the deck. It was yet but a short hour till dawn, and a creeping sense of oncoming light added to the breathless intensity, an intensity like that felt by the soldier at the zero hour of a charge. In the magical shifting of the shadows, there was seen, but a few feet above the horizon, a bank of clouds, the under line of which seemed to rest paral- lel with the ocean, the upper a jagged line, like the blade of a giant saw, the whole forming a sort of sensitive screen about the lower edge of the eastern sky. Gradually the dull grayness became transfused with a gorgeous royal purple, lined with a delicate pink; then as the sun rose slowly through its heaven- ly path, it changed in an instant the azure of the ocean to a perfect sea of gold, flooding the world, it seemed, with a Midas-like splendor. An artist would never dare attempt to paint a picture like that, for its rich and mellow beauty in unbelievable unless one can see it in its natural grandeur. But the scene changed: the sun was lifted behind the screen and the sea of gold melted and resumed its former serene azure with but a trace of gold. Again a new scene was created before me. The sun, now risen beyond the screen, smothered the ocean in a dazzling brilliant pink, with still a touch of gold intermingling with that rich blue seen only in a southern sky; a very riot of colors one would say, yet softened and subdued like the mellow beauty of a rose. I turned from the ocean view, and looked but a short distance to the entrance of Santiago Bay, with Morro Castle in ruins standing as a reminder of its old guardianship over the harbor. The soft gray of the Castle stood out from the background of the low white buildings on the slope of the hills beyond. The trees, the bushes, the grass, the very hills them- selves seemed green--a deep, rich, emerald green that brought out the beauty and brilliance of the buildings like the setting of a diamond. The ship's bell struck five. What! An hour wast- ed in merely looking at the scenery Wasted? Ah, no; for these scenes have left a picture, nay, a vision, too beautiful to be real,--a scene I shall never forget. WILLIAM E.

Description An account of the resource [page 51] [corresponds to page 49 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin A Diplomatic Romance Dear Dad: Arrived O.K. this A.M. and Aunt Ella was at the train to meet me. She is just fine and sends love. We are set for a "tea" this afternoon. I suppose it will be a bore, women sit in one corner and talk about their best friends while the men try to look interested. Oh yes! there is a special feature for this afternoon. I am to meet Count de Preles. He is representing the French Government here unoffi- cially. Thrills! Thrills! Thrills! Well, dear, I will write you all about it tomorrow as we are going to the opera tonight. With lots of love, MADGE. Dearest Pater: (That's Latin, Daddy). Well, I met the Count de Preles. He is the most insipid looking mortal, but to give him credit he is very good looking, although his clothes fit so precisely, his hair always looks just so, and his mustache is also scrupulous. I'll bet that he couldn't do a good day's work and I don't suppose he ever saw a gymnasium unless it was to take a perfumed shower bath. He is quite attentive and Aunt Ella is charmed with him. I suppose when your husband is in the president's cabinet, you have to be nice to foreigners, though, don't you? Well, I am going to play golf with the Count-No- Account today. Love, MADGE. Dearest Daddy: How are you? I am just fine! I'm so excited! I have scented a mystery. No, it isn't from a dime novel either. You know that there have been some royal Russian jewels sold to the French government. They were stolen and people believe some one brought them to this country. Dad, I think the Count knows something about it. You see the man who stole them, also stole the credentials of a French diplomat. They were not marked except only one of many so they couldn't be traced. No one knows why the Count is here. He doesn't do anything much but play golf, but I've caught him looking around at receptions as if he was afraid of being watched. I'm going to cultivate his friend- ship and see if I can't help in locating the jewels, as Uncle Ralph says that it is very urgent that they find them. Yours, MADGE. Dearest: The plot thickens. Last night we had a dance. I went with the Count, and, Dad I caught him--not with the jewels--but he was talking to the butler givign him orders. I listened and heard him say, "We'll go slowly; we can't risk discovery!" When I coughed and stepped out, he acted as if he had just asked the butler for his hat. He is clever. Then on our way home, we went for a long ride. He has a marvelous voice and is remarkably fond of telling stories and also of his many travels. Tru- ly, he is an exceptional man, but he can't fool me; he is a crook and I am going to catch him. I'm so sleepy. Good-night, MADGE. Dear Daddy: I'm so thrilled. When we were playing golf yes- terday, an aeroplane fell down right in front of us. The motor had gone dead and of course the plane crashed to the ground but fortunately the man was not hurt. He is very handsome and it turned out to be Jack Langley. He is just an ace from the war who is working on an aeroplane invention. He's very gentlemanly and Aunt Ella invited him up to- morrow. The Count stiffened and looked like a thunder cloud when he saw who the pilot was. I don't know what was the matter, whether it was be- cause he didn't like the aviator or not. Will tell you tomorrow. MADGE. Dear Dad: I've so much to tell you. I was out for a yacht party yesterday with Jack. The Count was invited, but he did not come. I wonder why? He seems to like me, but yet he is so indifferent--not that I care, except to catch him with the jewels. Anyway Jack told me yesterday that he was a French secret service man. He used to know the Count in Paris. He said Don wasn't a Count then at all, and also said that he (Jack) was over here to trace the jewels and catch the thief. I told him my suspicions of the Count, and he is going to watch him. He said he would let me help him if anything new came up. He is very nice and so attractive. I will write again soon. Love, MADGE. Dearest Pere: That is not a new kind of fruit--that is the French word for "Dad." It has been over a week since I've written any- thing but telegrams. I was so glad when I got your night letter but you shouldn't say so much when you pay by the word. I will be a miser before very long if I keep on getting economical. Things are going slowly. There is something do- ing every minute but I haven't found the jewels yet. 49 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 51) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/2333665a59d29ca87d1b21b040f9d618.jpg 5340a78a3cd3f35ea3c7e4944e03b42c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 52] [corresponds to page 50 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin The Count has been out of town for a week and if it wasn't so absurd, I'd think that I missed him. He is so insipid, and as I have found him out, he is a crook. Jack says he hopes to have him cornered in a week. I am so excited. Yours in suspense, MADGE. Dear Daddy: I just happened to think of what Grandma used to call you. Do you remember? Well! it was Jum- bo. She said she called you that because you liked peanuts so well. Don got back last week. He is the Count, as you already know. I'm letting him see me lots because I want to find out all I can for Jack. It doesn't seem to be working very well. He's charming until I talk about the jewels and then he immediately be- gins conversing on another subject, although I'm going to see if he will tell me. Will write later. Love, MADGE. Daddy Dear: I'm so unhappy. Today Jack told me to keep Don out until he had a chance to search his bags. I took him out into the garden and it was certainly a won- derful night. Don seemed terribly worried about something, so I asked him what the matter was. For just a minute he forgot himself and started to tell me but immediately put on his mask and went back into the house. Daddy, I know he was going to tell me that he liked me just a little. I read it in his eyes and the better point is that I want him to love me. I have only known him a month, yet I'm desperately near loving him--an effeminate crook. Love, YOUR HEART-BROKEN MADGE. P.S. There is something that seems strangely familiar about Don's eyes. Dear Dad: I'm so excited. It is all over--the mystery I mean. I will try to tell you just how it happened. Wed- nesday night, Jack didn't get all through searching Don's room so he told me to keep him out again last night. We went out in the park. I guess I do be- lieve in Romancing and Fate, after all, Dad, because a man attacked Don in the wooded part of the park. Did I tell you he was effeminate? You should have seen him put that man down. Jack Dempsey better look out for his title. Don tied the man's hand with a handkerchief and made him walk into the keeper's lodge, that happened to be near, and locked him in. When he came back to me I was ready to faint. I knew then more than anything else that he was safe so I just started to cry. (No! I'm not ashamed of myself because I couldn't help it). Then Don told me that he loved me but couldn't tell me anything about himself. He asked me if I could trust him. Somehow I knew then, that he was all right. I told him about Jack. He turned as white as a sheet and he asked me if I was still his brave little woman. As if I wouldn't pick sponges off the ocean's bottom after he had said that. To make a long story short. He gave me a note to take to police headquarters as fast as I could drive his car--and that was rather hurriedly. When I gave it to the chief he called his squad together and went out to the house. You should have been here then, Dad, it was great. They were all stationed at different places but the chief and he went in the house with me on his trail as close as Eliza's bloodhounds. The very first thing we saw was Don with Jack tied to a chair looking into a revolver. Then they blew a whistle and the men outside brought in three more. Dad, what do you think? Jack is the thief himself and Don caught him. They made me go to bed immediately because it was late and I was so excited. Anyway, I saw them take Jack and his confederates to jail. Don is going to tell me all about it tomorrow. I'm glad I trusted him. Your sleepy but happy MADGE. P.S. The mustache is false. Dear Dad: It's a lovely morning. I'm ready to go to lunch but it isn't quite time so I will tell you all about the mystery. Jack is an ex-convict from France. A Russian hired him to steal the jewels and he was to meet him here with them. His plane crashed and gave him an entrance into society with a little mystery to hide his real mission. Don is an American Secret Service officer who was put on the case by the French and American Gov- ernments. He knew who Jack was but was waiting to get him with his superior and his jewels. He had proof that Jack had the jewels and that is what Jack wanted in Don's room. They have Jack, the man who hired him, the proof, and also the jewels. Don has had a great raise and much honor. I'm so proud of him. Remember I said his eyes were familiar? Dad, do you remember the Montagnes that lived on the next ranch to us in Texas? The boy that I played with until I went East to school? That boy is Don. His real name is Donald Montagne. And, Dad, can't you leave Wall Street long enough to come out next week-end? Don will want to ask you something, although I don't know what it is. Yours blissfully, MADGE. --HELEN HITESHEW, '22. 50 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 52) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/2f6be5bbba98060b48702032940bf445.jpg bd2c3043582d2c9d5f2ddb8e6df00717 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 53] [corresponds to page 51 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Paula Last summer I had my first glimpse of community life, and I found it quite enlightening. I was at a camp in Vermont at the time, where were gathered girls of all types and descriptions, from every part of the United States. There was the petted mother's darling who was so trying just about bed-time when she was in the habit of being rocked to sleep. There were tomboy terrors and the peevish, ill-tempered ones, with a liberal sprinkling of winsome, happy- hearted little lassies who were like lumps of sugar in sour apple-sauce--quite a relief. And last, there was Paula. Paula was a wee mite of a seven-year-old with a large imagination, which was partly a gift of nature and partly the result of many hours spent listening to stories or pouring over volumes of fairy tales and mythes. This imagination, however, was of an airy nature which held no room for material things, and which, if she had been older, would have gained for her the epithet of dreamer. Her very expression was unpre-possessing at the outset. She was in the habit of contorting her small, deep-set eyes and full wide mouth into the most monkey-like expres- sions that I have ever beheld on a human counten- ance. Moreover, in her dress, she was the constern- ation of those who had her in charge. Her stock- ings were continually coming down; her middy was invariably unpinned at the throat; while her tie was often missing altogether; there seemed to be no means in the whole camp by which her bloomers could be kept above her knees; in short, Paula was not one to be bothered by her appearance. Alien as it may appear to this utter disregard of neatness, the child had a passion for dressing up, and "make believe" was a favorite pastime which whiled away not only much of her play time, but even much of the time when she was apparently en- gaged in other occupations. From remembered tales, still fresh in mind, or by her art of mental pictur- ing, she could at any moment evoke characters or situations to suit her taste. At dinner one noon she seemed absorbed in her own thoughts for fully fifteen minutes. Suddenly she broke her silence with, "O, Mrs. Blackburn, won't you please put on my shoes, I've been wading long enough, I think." Mrs. Blackburn, by this time somewhat accus- tomed to Paula's eccentricities, did as she was re- quested, meanwhile questioning the child about her queer statement. It seems she had tired of the table conversation, and to while away the time had imag- ined herself in wading in a "silvery brook that sparkled on the pebbles," to use her own words. She continued, "Mother lets me wade if I take off my shoes." It was one of these flights of imagination that insured and strengthened a warm friendship be- tween the child and me. One evening shortly be- fore taps I ascended the hill just behind our shack, intending to lie in the hammock and read until dark. On reaching the summit my attention was called by Paula's tentmates who came scrambling up the hill in their pajamas crying at the top of their voices: "O, Miss R--, do come down and tell Paula there isn't a ghost in the tent." Upon going down to investigate, I found that Paula's tent councillor had been detained and the child was possessed with the idea that there was a ghost in the tent, nearer which she refused to come than a tree perhaps twenty-five feet away. From that outpost of safety, she would make sudden dash- es back into the woods. On one of her frightened flights, I caught her and managed to keep her still. I hoped to divert her mind by asking what she liked to do. "Well," she said. "I like to read best." "What kind of books do you like " I suggested. "O, those about fairy people and goblins and ghosts and animals and--things." The last men- tioned was added rather absently. For some mo- ments she lay back in my arms silently thinking. Then she broke out, "Happy (that was what the children called their councillor) tells us lovely ghost stories. Will you tell us one?" Seizing my chance, I answered: "Paula, I'll tell you a story if you will promise to go back in your tent and go to bed." Much to my surprise she acquiesed. The other children followed a little behind, unwilling as yet to trust themselves nearer the tent. I thought the incident was closed, but no. Again Paula's voice held me. "There he is, I see him; he's caught behind the shelves. He can't get out." On being told that there was nothing there, she explained, "O yes he is. You can't see him though. He looks just like the tent flap. All I can see is his teeth. He can bite like anything, too. I knew a girl once who was bitten by a ghost. It hurt just awfully." Thinking she had gone far enough in her imagin- ings, and not daring to think what wild thing she would say next, I put her on her bed and told her to be quiet while I told her a story. When I finally left, she was just about asleep and I stole out with- out disturbing her. As I was thinking about the incident the next day, I could not help marveling at the wonderful talent 51 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 53) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8c4c26eac1546c258303e1214c5fbc54.jpg ad081e9cf3d0422a62544f8126d154e5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At the same time, a horror of what might become of the child if this talent were misued filled me with a sense of fore- boding. Many times have I pondered over this since I returned home, but the picture which oftenest comes to my mind is that of Paula, unconscious of self, listening to a story told at a camp-fire gather- ing, or herself acting out her own fanciful imag- inings. --CHARLOTTE RICE, '22. Home Seekers' Vision A burning summer sun had beaten down upon the prairie for days. Furnace-like, the south winds come racing out of the pulsing haze at the far hori- zon. The sky seemed of copper and the floor-like plain's once emerald disk was tinged by the heat with grayish brown. One object broke the monotony of the scene,--a white-covered wagon, its flapping canvas-top giving scant shelter to the emigrant and his wife crouch- ed within Their journey had been long,--seemingly endless to the fever-stricken woman. Suddenly the man looked up, startled. Their search for a home was over. "See!" he cried out in joy. They had come out on the edge of a wide-reaching valley. Lines of dense-leaved, billowy forest, bent and swayed in the gentle breeze. A lake with her and there a touch of foam to relieve the sparkling blue of the waves restlessly tossed and wrinkled its waters. Broad meadows suggesting clover and golden-rod were near by, and the waving of the grass was like that of the lake. Yonder, along the beach, the travelers caught a glimpse of dwellings --beautiful homes whose splendor seemed to dazzle their eyes. "See!" called out again the glad husband, his strong arm lifting the fainting wife that she might get a better view. The burdens of the past had been very great. In the fierce race of life they had been left far behind; but now the journey over, the thinly grassed prairie was nearly ended--the haven was in sight. They could almost taste the fruits of the trees and catch a scent of the clover. Hungrily, earnestly they feasted their eyes as they gazed through the opening in the flapping canvas. A passing cloud drifted suddenly before the sun. A cry of pain and disappointment surged to the wo- man's lips as she saw again a dreary length of plain whose level lines had so long fatigued her eyes. The torrid wind found not a leaf to stir. She fell back on her heated pillow. The mirage had lifted. The emigrant was alone on the prairie with his dead. --MILDRED McNETT, '23. Sentimental Value Everyone who is capable of deep feeling has in his possession some object which has no intrinsic value whatever but which he would not sell for any money. Or, perhaps the article which he prizes most is of no use to him although it would command a price if offered for sale. The things which bind this worthless object so closely to his life are the heart-strings themselves, which are caused to vi- brate with new life whenever the beloved article is presented to his sight. Perhaps it is a pressed flow- er, a handkerchief, an old school book, or a worn- out garment which never fails to revive the old sen- sations and dear memories that make life newer and happier. Perhaps we have never stopped to consider what a great factor sentiment, or even sentimentality, is in our lives. Some people are proud of the fact that they are called sentimental; others are ashamed of its. There is really no more excuse for either feeling than there is for being proud or ashamed of eating or breathing. Sentiment is a part of life itself. The past, present, and future are bound together by it; life is given unity by the sentimental regard we have for persons, circumstances, and things. Who among you has never, in the innocent idol- atry of youth, idealized some person who has after- wards proven entirely unworthy of your worship? But even after he has been shown to have feet of clay, will the sight of the athlete who was your idol to Apollo, the teacher whom you regarded as Wis- dom incarnate, the girl who seemed an unparalleled example of tenderness and unselfishness, or the min- ister who appeared as a paragon of all virtue, ever fail to revive old emotions and sobering memories which make your life better for having once cher- ished those ideals? Even though much bitterness was caused by the disillusionment you suffered, has not a new tenderness been added to your under- standing by the deep experience? To anyone, then, who has ever felt the thrill of a happy experience, the inspiration of a wonderful discovery, or the pain of a broken idol, sentimental value is an inseparable element of life; and all the harshness of struggle, the discouragement of disap- pointment and the unsympathetic attitudes of men cannot mar the memories his treasures of sentiment recall. --MIRIAM STAFFORD, '23. 52 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 54) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/dd790ef06ab7b1499bf86c52d4d495a0.jpg c3c49350cdc9d08b86136ad9d6e8b794 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 55] [corresponds to page 53 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin Forceful Magic Jack Wellington was an ordinary young man in many ways, but had turned special attention toward the age-old art which sometimes instructs, often amuses, and always entertains. His big night was at hand--the night which would either make him or break him. True, the young magician had given numberless performances for his friends, and even entertained in one of the small theaters of his city; but tonight he was to present hs [sic] performance before an immense crowd of Chi- cago theater-goers. It was to be a charity benefit; so the audience would be composed of two classes: one made up of those who were ever ready to make allowances for an inexperienced actor, while the other class was composed of those who sit stiffly in their places and seem to say, "Well, we're used to seeing all kinds of players and we know a good show from a bad one. We make no allowances and ex- pect the best for our money." Now this latter class was enough to discourage any young fellow; but had not Jack spent weeks in preparation? Had he not put special stress upon his "patter" in order to overcome all difficulties along that line and to render a performance with- out room for criticism? This tended to add encour- agement, but Jack could not help being a little ner- vous before the curtain went up. The orchestra was playing the opening number! In a moment he would face a sea of faces! The great curtain slowly ascended and with it rose his courage. He was, at once, the same cool-headed Jack Wellington who had practiced his entertain- ment without error. The orchestra broke into the closing strains of "The Stars and Stripes Forever" following the pro- duction of a large American flag on a rigid staff. The audience began to sit up and take notice. Per- haps, after all, this show might prove of interest. Jack launched into the performance with perfect ease. He pulled rabbits from unsuspecting gentle- men's coats, effected the production of bowls of gold- fish, caught live pigeons from the air, and caused cards to assume animated life. The vanishing of a young lady from a suspended cabinet, and her in- stantaneous appearance at the rear of one of the theater aisles brought thunders of applause. In fact, everything went along splendidly until, nearing the close of the first act, a spectator publicly challenged the wizard to hypnotize him. Now Jack Wellington might easily have eluded this challenge by saying that he had had no experience along mesmeristic lines and would be unable to do as the spectator requested, but Jack never thought of such an easy way out. The show had been run- ning so smoothly that he was literally taken off his feet by such a public challenge. He vaguely remem- bered promising to do as the man asked but suggest- ed postponing the demonstration until the next act, in which he was going to demonstrate mind-reading. This was agreeable to the spectator, who gloried in Jack's uneasiness. The remainder of Act One went off more or less mechanically, and when the curtain had descended, he was met by an excited brother and assistant. "You sure are in a deuce of a mess now, Jack! Why you've never had a lesson! You can't hypnotize anyone--" "Now just can that stuff, Tom," interrupted his brother, "I know it as well as you, but this is no time to lose our heads. Something's bound to turn up and, anyway, I may be able to bluff my way through. I think I know the principles." Saying this, Jack hurried away to his dressing room, leaving Tom to look after all preparations for the next act and supervise the change of scenes. In three minutes the apparatus of the preceding act was cleared away. A plain, yet attractive, set- ting stood in its place. This was to serve as scenery for the mind-reading demonstration--an act care- fully practiced and one which had promised success in the largest sense of the word, but which was now extremely doubtful in the hands of the nervous Jack. The young performer had decided to attempt the hypnotizing stunt first, leaving the remainder of the act until later, so that he might possibly overcome his inevitable failure with the more certain "Mir- acle Mind Reading," as it was advertised. The low, steady beat of a tom tom announced the beginning of the second act and was followed by the weird strains of "The Shiek." Jack, arrayed in an Arabic costume, stepped to the footlights as the curtain rose. His voice was clearly audible al- though he felt as if his heart were in his mouth. He requested the subject's presence on the stage and, when this request was complied with, began to walk the man backwards, going through meaning- less motions with his hands in front of the man's face. Every moment Jack felt worse. These impos- sible motions could not go on. Already the audience was sensing the bluff. Was so brilliant a perform- ance to be sacrificed now? It seemed inevitable. Suddenly the man's eyes closed! he sank in silence to the floor! Was this a dream? Jack Wellington was completely bewildered but knew that he must retain his composure, so he managed to turn and bow to the suprised audience. The curtain de- scended for a second, while the subject was removed. A very jubilant and self-satisfied Jack Wellington 53 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 55) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/72c621331da57f827f3156e91c5130d0.jpg 2301f632f813347e1ec55029e393aba8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

All through the performance the thought was uppermost in his mind that he had actu- ally put the man to sleep! Surely he must be gifted with unknown powers! At length, the final encore was over and Jack was met by enthusiastic friends. Nothing gave him more surprise than to learn that the man whom he had hypnotized had challenged him on a bet which the man had made with one of Jack's friends. This friend, as Tom remarked, must have had a tremen- dous amount of faith in Jack's ability. On the following morning, the young entertainer was awakened to see an account of his success in the "Tribune" staring him in the face. Tom held the paper before the approving eyes of his brother. "Jack," he said, "did you ever see a better write- up? Why, people all over the city know of this, and from what I can gather, the mesmeristic stunt got off best of anything!" "I'll agree with you," chimed in Jack, "Hot dog! I guess I'm some hypnotist! It's a mystery to me, though, why I never discovered my abilities before." A look of disapproval spread over Tom's face. "Look here, Jack, you hate yourself too doggoned much for any use, so I'm going to put you wise to something I'd intended to keep to myself. Wait a minute." With this, Tom left the room returning a moment later with a hammer. "Say, Jack, did you ever see this hammer before?" "Sure did," said his brother; "It's the one we used in setting up some of the stuff last evening." "Well," continued Tom, "do you recall the mo- ment last night when you accidentally backed your subject against the back-drop? This hammer," add- ed Tom, "has more magic in it than you think. Last evening, when I observed the outline of the honor- able gent's ivory dome against the back-drop, I just couldn't resist the temptation of giving him a light tap on the head. I really hadn't intended to tell you, but since you've assumed such a self-satisfied atti- tude over your apparent success--" "Tom," broke in a pride-shaken brother. "You're the kind of brother and assistant to have!" Now, although Jack Wellington's pride was wound- ed momentarily, he was not the sort of fellow to miss a good joke even at his own expense, so he smiled as he shook his younger brother's hand and said, "I may be able to pass as a fair magician, but as a hypnotist--well, as a hypnotist, I'm afraid I'd be obliged to resort to your more effective method of forceful magic." --BEVERLY KELLEY, '24. Short One "Don't you feel any better, Jane?" Cora Jennings said to her sister, who was still in bed at the late hour of eight on the day they had planned to leave for New York. "Oh, dear, don't worry, I'm sure I'll be all right; I'm just fighting off a miserable cold." "Don't you want something to eat? Maybe that would make you feel better." "Oh, I don't know what I want; I want to go. We have planned this little trip for so long, and now we even have our reservations, and I am going to spoil all our fun. Oh dear, it's such a splendid day, and besides we are almost packed." "Now look here, Jane, you just forget about spoil- ing our fun and get that ache out of your system. You lie right still there in bed and don't you move an inch out of it until I tell you you can. I'll finish doing what few things are to be done." She started to leave and Jane called to her, "Well, Cora, you might bring me a little bite to eat, if you're not going to let me get it for myself." Cora left the room, soon returning with a tray of steaming coffee and hot rolls. Scarcely had Jane finished her slight meal when some one called from the bottom of the stairs, "Jane! Cora!" Who could it be? Aunt Luella from Uniontown was the only one they knew of who always walked right in, but she always told them she was coming. Presently the call came up the stairway again, a lit- tle louder this time, "Jane! Cora!" "Oh, it's Mrs. B-- coming over to find out all she can to spread over the town," said Cora. She hurried to the top of the stairs and looked down. Sure enough it was she, standing in her neat morning dress, her inquisitive face turned upwards. "I just ran over to see if you really were going, and if there wasn't something I could do," she said. The truth of the matter, as the girls both knew, was that she just couldn't keep away; she wanted to know all their plans and didn't know how to find them out without having some excuse to come over; that done, perhaps she might finally question the information out of them if she managed well. Of course she came directly up the stairs, not waiting to be asked, and found Jane in bed. "Oh, you can't go, can you?" she said as she turn- ed to Cora--"Oh, what a shame! I suppose you had all your plans made?" She looked rather question- ingly at the girls, but Jane hearing this comforting query rolled over, heaving a faint sigh, and gave Cora a look not to tell. Cora understood. "I'll tell you what you ought to have," Mrs. B-- continued; "some whiskey mixed with a little hot 54 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 56) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d643af13fe5b541c22439999fa25bdde.jpg 427c237665632c194836b4e319622849 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

That would fix you up in a jiffy. If you haven't any I'll go right home and get you some. I'll bring enough so that you'll have some to put in your suitcase, and I know if you take some now you'll be able to go." She said this and hurried home for the potion not waiting to see if they had any, for she was certain the Jenningses would hesitate a lit- tle at having such a thing around. She returned shortly with her bottle, and after seeing that Jane had taken a dose, went back home. After Mrs. B-- had left, Jane fell asleep and Cora finished packing, locked the windows, drew some of the shutters, and left only a few things undone that had to be finished at the last minute. When Jane awoke, she felt so much better that they decided to go. Finding no chance acquaintance on the train they sat and discussed every one back home from the grocery man to the president of the club, and when for the second time they had got back to Mrs. B-- Jane be- gan to feel bad again. Her berth was made up at once, and after much uneasiness she went to sleep only to be awakened by the man in the next berth, who was snoring most atrociously. She felt no bet- ter; in fact, she felt worse. After doing everything she could think of, Cora finally resorted to the whis- key. She went to the dressing room to prepare the draught, and on returning thought she knew her berth, but missed it by one. The occupant, who was none other than the afore- said snorer, was now deeply buried in peaceful slum- bers. Cora was standing over him, her hand on his pillow before she discovered he was not her sister; then in her fright and confusion she spilled the hot whiskey on him. He immediately awoke, and grab- bed her by the wrists, thinking she was trying to get his watch and money from under his pillow. Her eyes were burning with shame and horror, for you must remember she was very aristocratic and pre- cise, and was very much abashed by such a mishap; her face was flushed and her mind all in confusion, herself very nervous and quaky. To think that she, Cora Jennings, had mistaken the berth of a man un- known to her even by name for that of her sister. And too, how terrible! She had accidentally spilled the whiskey on him! What if it should be printed in the papers? What would her friends back home in Cincinnati think when they read it? Oh, horrors! While all this was nunning through her bemuddled brain, the man was sitting up in bed muttering in- coherent threats, and holding on to her wrists with such a grip that when she finally pulled herself away, they felt as if they had just been released from the stocks. She ran into her own berth breathless, pale, and excited. The patient, hearing the commo- tion and forgetting all about her pains, drew Cora up close to her, and in frantic whispers, amid chok- ing tears of shame and nervous laughs, tried to soothe her panicky sister. Meanwhile, the irate neighbor got out as fast as he could to the colored porter, who was sitting dozing in a chair at the rear of the sleeper. "There is some one in this car that is trying to rob me!" he exclaimed. "Oh, Boss, yo dunno wat yo' is talkin' about. They ain't no sech thing; for ef thar was Ah'd of seen 'em, Ah guess." "Well I guess if you swa some one standing next to your bed with her hand on your pillow ready to grab your watch from under it, you would know it." "Aw, shoot, Boss, yo' is drunk; that's what yo' is. Aw can smell it on yo' right now. Get yo' on back there to bed and stop makin' this here disturbance in this car, or I'll have yo' put off at the nex' stop. Yo' dunno wat yo' is sayin'. Youse drunk; that's wat yo' is. G'wan back to yo' berth." But the man was certain of what he said, and was certain, too, that he was not drunk; so stayed right where he was. The porter called the conductor, and explained the difficulty. The conductor was also convinced of the man's drunkenness, being able, like the porter, to smell the liquor on him. Then ensued the angry protestations of the out- raged traveling man. He was put off at the next stop, and to this day no one knows that he was not drunk, nor does any one know how Jane Jennings's threatening cold was cured with whiskey toddy. --FRANCES NAYLOR, '22. Danny Peters' Inheritance It was a sultry midsummer afternoon that settled itself upon the small group of tumble down shacks, graced by the presence of a combined general store and saloon, and endowed by its founders with the simple yet very appropriate cognomen of "Peace." This interesting little bozanza town, like so many others on the Western prairie, had gradually sprung up since the days of the forty-niners, until now it boasted of a population a little in excess of one hun- dred souls. On this particular afternoon the center of inter- est, as usual, revolved about the pouch of the gen- eral store, where several of the town characters and idlers sat about, some smoking, others dozing, and, when the spirit moved them, swapping experiences. At the time when our story opens, old Jerry Pratt, historian of the place, and an inveterate story tell- er, had just disposed of his companionable quid and was about to relate an anecdote bearing on his fa- 55 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 57) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/b3529688b968bf0110bfd6090e5db7ef.jpg 4c6b5c8b41e380bfdc9bbe6d45c95e82 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

"Did any of this bunch ever hear the straight of how Crazy Horse got his first taste o' fire water?" inquired the oldest inhabitant in a reminiscent mood. No one replied, and taking it for granted that he would not be interrupted, Jerry cleared his throat and began. Just at this point the conversation was interrupt- ed by a shot issuing from the saloon, and a moment later, out burst a roughly dressed individual with a white scar on his left cheek, who vaulted to his pony's back and was off. After him came Tim, the bartender, flourishing a cork-screw and shouting: "Sthop him, I say, he ain't paid for his drink. The blitherin' idot tried to puncture me, but thank Hiven, the lookin' glass is all that's busted." To catch the fellow then, however, was impossible. for the only witness to his hasty flight was a ris- ing pyramid of alkali dust far down the road. "I know that man," vouchsafed "Slim" Henderson, Deputy Sheriff. "Joe, don't you remember 'Stick- up' Jim Ramsey, who tried to lay a claim to Sam Peter's land by fake papers, about two years ago? The varmint skipped out 'a town quite sudden, af- ter a little tussle with Sam, but he swore revenge afore he pulled up stakes. I'd know that gent any- where by that pretty looking scar he carries around. Let me tell you there'll be trouble brewing afore long with such a reptile loose around here." Rising, "Slim" yawned, stretched himself, and drawled, "I'll just go over and have a little chat with the Sheriff about this. It won't do any harm to keep a watch out for this fellow's whereabouts." Jerry was first to speak after Henderson's depar- ture. "This here country sure is going to the dogs. Why a decent feller can't live secure any more." Suddenly a cloud of dust appeared on the road opposite that just taken by the man known familiar- ly as "Stickup." From the rapidity of approach, the onlookers conjectured that whoever it might be, had something of real importance on hand. The ob- scuring dust lifted, little by little, disclosing a horse, whose rider hung low over the saddle, urging the steed to greater effort. "I'm willin' to wager that's Danny, Sam Peters' boy. But what can he be in such a rush about?" queried "Spooks" Slade, district mail carrier. Their anxiety was soon set at rest, for Danny, a red-head- ed, capable looking boy of sixteen, who was an es- pecial favorite with all the residents of Peace, swung off his horse, and scarcely waiting to catch breath, exclaimed, "Dad's struck it rich at last, boys, after all these hard years of plugging. It's over along the foot of the Sawtooth somewhere; I didn't stop long enough to find out. And,--oh, yes, I near- ly forgot,--Dad wants a whole new prospecting out- fit, too." After such a long speech--for Danny--he lapsed into silence. Joe Cameron voiced the feelings of all when he said, "You bet we're all for you, son. I just felt in my bones that Sam was about due for a little change in luck." It did not take Danny long to secure the needed equipment, and with the well-wishes of all ringing in his ears, he set out for home. Just at dusk he rode in, and found Pedro Mendez, the Mexican hired man, standing ready to help him unload. The man's teeth shone white against a brown skin, as their eyes met, but there was little of humor in the smile. It was a smirk that lingered artificially. The fel- low was rather uncommunicative, but conveyed the information that Mr. Peters had been very restless during his absence, and had asked to see him as soon as he got back. As they were talking, the Sheriff, Mr. Long, af- fectionately known as "Shorty," rode up. He had just heard of Mr. Peter's good fortune, and know- ing that Danny's father must be anxious to stake his claim as soon as possible, had ridden up with the ownership papers. The conversation between the Sheriff and Sam Peters chiefly concerned the latter's new find, but when Long mentioned that Ramsey was in the neighborhood, Pedro's eyes lighted up with an unaccustomed glow. After supper, Mr. Peters drew a rough chart of the strike, explaining it all to Danny as he went along. If the two had only known they were being watched by Pedro, who had crept beneath the un- curtained kitchen window where he could distinctly hear all that was said, and occasionally risk a glance within, things might have been different. As it was they were so engrossed in study of the map, that Pedro found it easy to slip away, after he was sure that Mr. Peters had secured the chart in his boot for safekeeping. When once out of danger of discovery, Mendez slipped out behind the wagon shed, and whistled low three times. An answering whistle came back to him, and soon a figure appeared out of the darkness. "Is that you, 'Hoot'?" Pedro whispered. "Yep, and I reckon I'm on time too, Mex," said the man. "Anything new on tap?" "Si, Senor, and something important. Tell Gorgas that to-morrow, Mr. Peters rides past Black Hills. He goes to stake a new claim. He will be alone; wait your chance and then strike. Saavy? There will be a map of the strike hidden in his boot." "Looks like easy pickin', gringo. When will you join us?" asked "Hoot." "Pronto, hombre," replied Mendez. "How many are in the gang, senor?" 56 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 58) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/009364bbe0f96e70b9aa46c01a9fbc64.jpg 5d8d070592e227dd099b1eec9a653429 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Gorgas says that he won't have a whole raft of men around, like he did two years ago. 'Mem- ber how we all skidooed when Long caught us red handed a rustlin' them cattle. I ain't forgot that day yet. Well, I spose you're wantin' to know who's back. There's 'Dusty' Phillips and 'Smilin' Jack' Wilson, besides myself. Who d'ye think blew in last night? Why, Ramsey. He's been layin' low for a while, but he said it warn't in him to keep away with the old gang workin' again. I guess I' orter light out. Boss told me to hoof it right back. S'long." "Adios," was Pedro's rejoinder. He listened un- til he heard the dull thud of a horse's hoofs speed- ing off across the mesa. Then turning, he sought his lodgings above the stable to plan for the mor- row. Next morning at dawn, Mr. Peters set out on his way with a happy heart. Danny, for some unaccountable reason was ap- prehensive of his father's going, but he was almost afraid to voice his fear. The feeling remained up- permost in his mind all forenoon, although he tried in vain, by working, to drive it away. Soon after lunch he caught a glimpse of his fath- er's horse "Star," coming riderless over the plain at a terrific gallop, and his worst alarms were real- ized. Moreover, from the blood stains on the saddle, he knew there had been a fight, and that his father needed him badly. He attempted to find Mendez, but the Mexican had discreetly fled. Quickly mount- ing, the boy started out, scanning the sage brush dotted plan far ahead, for the sight which he so dreaded to see, yet momentarily expected. About mid afternoon near Coyote Pass, he found his father by the side of the road, nearly dead. A smile came over his face as Danny bent down over him and he said, "I knew you'd be here, but there's no use trying to help me, son, I'm done for. A pack of bunco men rode up at me out of that coulee, 'afore I could put up a scrap, and plugged me full of lead. It's the same bunch that hung out in these parts 'afore the Sheriff got busy. Jim Ramsey was one of 'em, son. He's always had it in for me since I gave him a lickin', a couple of years ago. Thank God, I didn't bring that chart along. It's home under the floor in the southwest corner of the kitchen. Don't let 'em get it, son." Mr. Peters could scarcely speak above a whisper, but it was clear that there was something else he wanted to say. "Danny, you've been a good boy, and I hope you'll be a better man than your dad has been. I always tried to do my duty by you, just like Mary made me promise, afore she died. My one possession is this claim, the only inheritance I can leave you. Take it, and may God protect you, my boy." He tried to speak again but the effort proved too much. Sam Peters had passed to the Great Beyond. Broken hearted, Danny dug a shallow grave, and placed a rude cross at the head; standing for a mo- mont, bareheaded, the forlorn figure of a boy who has just lost his best friend. Then mounting his horse, the grief-stricken lad turned homeward as the last rays of the setting sun gilded the far off jagged peaks of the Sawtooth; and one by one, the stars came out, casting their steely blue glitter over the earth. A day or so later Danny was seated on the top- most rail of the corral, wondering as to just what the future would bring, when suddenly his reverie was rudely cut short by the swish of a lariat whose horsehair noose settled about his shoulders, jerking him violently backwards. So stunned was he at this unexpected happening that he had no chance to resist, and when he could think clearly again he found himself bound, and being carried on the shoul- ders of two men. Where could they be taking him? Any doubts he had were quickly dispelled, for they soon arrived at an old, unused well, some dis- tance from the road. Setting down their burden, the men commenced to taunt Danny. At last wehn they tired of this, the two lowered him into the deep, dark pit, and then went on to rejoin their companions. Danny lay still for a long time, trying to make himself believe it was all a dream; but suddenly he realized the grim reality of it, and strove with all his might to tear the restraining cords loose. Then he attempted to shout, but soon saw the utter futil- ity of this, for he heard only the empty echoes. Hav- ing given up all hope of rescue, he lay quietly trying to rack his brains for a way of escape, when sud- denly in the little circle of light above, appeared one of the most welcome sights Danny had ever seen. It was the smiling, freckled face of "Spooks" Slade. "Hello there, Dan, I didn't dare come near till just now. Saw the two of 'em sneaking in behind ya, just as I got to the top of the hill, so I ducked into the brush, and watched proceedings. I'll say they took ya off the fence pretty neat. They've just flew the coop. Took your Dad's prospecting outfit, too. Just you lay still; I'll lower a rope down right off." As soon as Danny stood above ground again, they decided that no time must be lost in getting to Peace, where the Sheriff could be consulted. They arrived there in quick time, and Long pro- posed that the pursuit start as soon as possible. They agreed, and six trusty men having been chosen, 57 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 59) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/1454a1dcd83f51ade410492f16da1052.jpg f0dc57f15d7878e0efd825570b3ba8ea Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 60] [corresponds to page 58 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin the chase started in earnest. Although "Shorty" thought it unwise for Danny to go along, he finally gave in, when he realized that they boy was the only one who knew the trail the claim jumpers had tak- en, since Mendez had secured the map before start- ing. It was early evening when far ahead on a stretch of level mesa, the pursuers saw the glow of a camp fire. Assured that Gorgas's band had no intimation of their nearness,--for this country was one little traveled,--the men decided to camp right where they were, in a little valley. "Tiny" Maxwell, Long's right hand man, was sent out to reconnoitre. He returned with the news that there were only six men in Gorgas's gang, and as far as he could see, no guard had been posted, so secure did they feel. He also discerned that whiskey was being used freely by all. Immediately a council was called, and the plans for the capture of the unsuspecting bandits worked out. It was decided that early next morning, they should quietly surround the camp, while all were deep in a drunken sleep, and have them under ar- rest before they were fully awake. One man was then posted as guard, and the rest left. Danny, however, was very restless. Finally, unable to stand it any longer, he went to the Sheriff and told him he could not feel secure until he had set up the claim with his own hand. He was determined on starting out as soon as possible, and "Shorty" prom- ised him that as soon as the morning's work had been attended to, he would let him have two men to go along. Just as the first glimmer of dawn appeared, the posse swooped down upon the bandits, and with very little commotion, the entire gang was taken into custody. They proved to be some of the worst char- acters in the West, and the Sheriff was glad to have these very men, since they escaped him once be- fore. True to his promise, Long gave Danny two men to act as escort, and after several hours of hard rid- ing among the rocky foothills of the majestic, snow- covered Sawtooth range, guided by the boy who picked the trail by various landmarks, they ap- proached the narrow gulch in which the precious deposit was located. All of a sudden, they became aware of the marks of a horse's hoofs in the soft earth, and proceeding with infinite caution they came to the canyon's entrance, and found that some- one must be within, for the hot ashes of a fire lay scattered about. Resolved to take no changes, Danny then instruct- ed the two men to creep into the valley a little way, and spy, while he took a circuitous route, worming his way through the dry creek-bed, to a point where he could look out upon the floor of the gulch in all directions. What the lad saw, not fifteen feet away from him, was a horse tethered, and on the side of the gently sloping hill, a rude sign announced that this land was held by Miguel Gorgas. Just as he stood there watching, several shots rang out in quick succession, seeming to come from just around the bend. Realizing that his two compan- ions must have been discovered, he slipped down again, and watching his chance, came up noiseless- ly behind a natural parapet of boulders, where he intended to take a look around. Something seemed to warn him of impending danger, and there, sure enough, flattened against the stone breastwork lay a man, intent on drawing a bead on someone. So busy was he defending his position, that he failed to notice even Danny's sudden appearance. Quick- ly the fellow fired, and turned part way 'round to reload his gun. Danny shrank back, but not before he had seen the face of "Stickup" Ramsey. Crawl- iong up a little nearer, though still sufficiently hid- den, the boy was almost able to touch his man. It was now or never. Drawing his pistol from its hol- ster, he placed the cold steel muzzle resolutely against "Stickup's" neck, at the same time ordering him to surrender, in no uncertain terms. The ef- fect was instantaneous. Perhaps more from sur- prise than fear, the claim-jumper threw up his hands, and it was but a matter of minutes before the boy and his companions had him safely fastened up with a heavy pair of manacles. The task of setting up a fresh claim was soon ac- complished, and closely guarded, and the man whose name had been a cause of terror to all the plains was marched back in sullen submission. As for Danny, whose quick thinking had marked him as a hero, he was the center of all attention, and his entrance into Peace was rivalled only by that of a conquering warrior. For the satisfaction of those who must have every- thing explained to them, it might be added that Dan- ly's [sic] inheritance turned out to be one of the richest finds ever uncovered in that section of the West- ern country. --WILLIAM BROWN, '22. 58 Title A name given to the resource Delaware High School Bulletin '22 (p. 60) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/7b4982db366b963262134f117971bc3d.jpg 73d5162b82038c968a61a7607e5d9f67 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 61] [corresponds to page 59 of Delaware HS Bulletin '22] Bulletin An Indian Sport In the summer of 1918 I happened to visit my uncle, who was a civil surgeon, then stationed at his camp at Atrauli, in the United Provinces of In- dia. English officials were very infrequent in that part of the country, and for this reason we became acquainted with the Rajah, the nominal ruler of that particular district. During the latter part of our stay, my uncle and I were invited to be guests of the dignitary at a celebration to be held for the purpose of raising money for the Red Cross,--a cel- ebration in which the main sport was to be wrest- ling. We accepted the invitation eagerly, for we had never before seen an Indian wrestling match. The Rajah called for us that afternoon at three. On arriving we found that there was a considerable crowd on the grounds; but everyone made way for us, and we were soon in our seats. The ground had been spaded for a space about twenty feet square, in which the wrestling matches were to take place. One side was reserved for His Highness and his retinue; the other three for the public, who throng- ed and crowded them. At about three-thirty the matches began. The first one was between two young men who were making their first appearance in the ring. As each stepped out, he was greeted with a cheer from the men of his village, who had come to see him wrestle. In an instant they were at it. Since neither of the wrestlers was very muscular, it was plain that both depended upon their speed. During the match, one old man in the front line sat wrapped in the contest. He was a man of about sixty, who was lame, and who might have been taken for the grand- father of one of the wrestlers. His lameness sug- gested the fact that he himself had probably wrestled at some time, and was now the young man's coach. When at last his pupil won the victory, he went wild with excitement, and the victor rushed to the side- lines and hugged and wept over his old grandfath- er, acting much as the Mt. Vernon players did after the Delaware game. He then shook hands with his grinning friends, and peeled off a rupee from each hand he shook, for such was the custom. The next match was between a well-built and in- telligent-looking farmer, and a harry, muscular man who might have claimed relationship to a chimpan- zee. After each was duly greeted, another match was on. From the beginning of this second match, it was apparent that it was a battle between Brains and Brawn; but when Brains got a good hold on Brawn, he was not strong enough to throw him, and Brawn eventually won by wearing out Brains. Then Brawn, in his turn, received due congratulations and rupees from his townspeople, and the next contestants step- ped into the ring. One was a man of much the same type as the vic- tor of the previous match; the other a very self-sat- isfied looking Hindu Babu. The latter was almost too fat to look like a wrestler, yet the crowd had "doped" it out that he would win. By his actions he conveyed the impression in a very decided way that he believed in the judgment of the crowd. It took him about twenty minutes to throw his opponent; but he had an excuse ready: he had sprained his wrist, he said, and that was why he did not win sooner. This last match ended the regular schedule, but a bunnia from the North, Dirjon by name, champion of the United Provinces, was willing to take on any- body who cared to wrestle with him. For a time no one seemed very anxious to do so. After a wait, the Rajah made an announcement to the effect that since this man had come all the way from Lucknow, it was a pity he had to go home without having accom- plished anything. At these words, a tall Mohamme- dan stepped out of the crowd, and took up the chal- lenge. The two then went into adjoining tents to get ready. Dirjon came out first, and took his corner amid wild cheers from the spectators. He was a man of average height, very powerfully built, with rippling muscles under his smooth brown skin. He started, after the Indian custom, to warm up, not with some selections from Walter Camp's Daily Dozen as an American might, but with an exercise peculiar to wrestlers of his country,--an exercise which I have never seen in any other part of the world, and one which combines all the contortions of the Daily Dozen in one. As one watched Dirjon's powerful body going through these motions, one could not help wondering at the audacity of the lanky Mo- hammedan who now stepped into his corner. Not a sound did the crowd utter as the two wrest- lers took their places. No time was wasted in pre- liminary feints. Like a flash Dirjon rushed across the soft ground, and in an instant literally picked up his opponent and laid him on his back in the dust. At this the crowd acted exactly as the crowd in the bleachers acts when Babe Ruth knocks his fifty- seventh homer; a noise more like a roar than any- thing else went up and continued for ten minutes without a stop. The celebration was over, but not a soul stirred in the arena for at least ten minutes; after which the crowd moved off slowly, first by ones, and then faster. The Rajah then invited us to tea, which had been prepared on the grounds; and, as we went, we felt that we had had a pleasant afternoon's entertain- ment. --JOHN R.

Description An account of the resource [page 6] [corresponds to page 2 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Ohio Wesleyan The Founding of Ohio Wesleyan OHIO Wesleyan University was founded in 1842 under the patronage of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1841 Charles Elliott, Joseph M. Trimble and W. P. Strickland drove from Urbana, Ohio to Delaware, Ohio, to look at the grounds and hotel building which the citizens of the latter place had offered to the Methodist Church for college purposes. When the three preachers returned to the seat of the Methodist conference, only one of them had enough money with which to pay for the carriage in which they made the journey; and Dr. Trimble made the first contribution to the University by paying the expenses of that historical visit. Dr. Elliott's speech portraying the possibili- ties of a college for Ohio Methodism awak- ened great enthusiasm and led the conference to accept the gift of the citizens of Delaware and to undertake to launch a university upon faith. Pioneer Days IN 1842 Delaware was a village of 900 in- habitants, away from the lines of travel and commerce. There were no railroads in the state and but few good pikes. In bad weather it took the tri-weekly stage a whole day to plow its way hither from Columbus. There were no street lights and on dark nights pedestrians had to carry lanterns.

Mansion House and Sulphur Spring at Delaware OHIO Wesleyan owes its location, if not its establishment, to the famous White Sulphur Spring in Delaware. In order to accomodate tourists and seekers after health, two enterprising citizens in 1833 erected a fine hotel on a spacious lot embrac- ing the spring. This hotel soon became known to the citizens of Delaware and to tourists as the Mansion House. On account of the sparsely settled state and the difficulties of traveling, it seemed advisable in 1841 to give up the idea of establishing a western watering-place. The spring property being thus brought into the market, it was suggested by Rev. Adam Poe, the Methodist Pastor in Dela- ware, that the citizens should purchase it and offer it as a site for a Methodist college. This sug- gestion led to the establishment of a great univer- sity. 3 Title A name given to the resource Ohio Wesleyan University: A Fountain of Good in the World (p. 7) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/900bcc534e8aa462cfebc087333dcfd2.jpg 2da1157509be06d167ff8500916caa8a Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Education supplemented with Character Building has been the unswerving aim and ideal of the University for all these years. That impress has been left upon the minds of more than 30,000 young men and women since 1842. In addition to mental training every youth entering the Univer- sity has his spiritual, physical and social welfare carefully guarded and developed. Ohio Wesleyan's gift to civilization is a group of strong upstanding, God-fearing men and women--youths trained intellec- tually, inbred with a high moral sense and equipped physically to meet the demands of life.

Instead of directing the minds of its students into narrow, techni- cal pursuits, Ohio Wesleyan provides a liberal education that frees the mind of the limitation of special interests and makes it alert, wide ranging and resourceful. Such training fits men and women to deal with the difficult and un- expected problems of life and business and instills into them many things that a strictly professional training will not. For example: (a) Open mind, (b) Judicial Temper, (c) Resourcefulness in sum- moning related facts, (d) Breadth of Appreciation, (e) Orderly ar- rangement of facts and thoughts, (f) Clear presentation in good English.

Description An account of the resource [page 11] [corresponds to page 7 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] the Responsibilities of Tomorrow Cultural Training as a Foundation WITH broad cultural training as a foundation, men will become better engineers, better business men, better teachers, lawyers, doctors, ministers, farmers and citizens, than they who cramp the first development of the mind in narrow, technical pursuits. A broad viewpoint once acquired, will last a lifetime. If a man wants to be an engineer, by all means, let him get a liberal arts training, in whole or in part before taking up the technicalities. By so doing, he will think more clearly, write more accurately and speak more convincingly. This will enable him to get his proposition before the public in better form and take and keep for himself the place in the community to which his training entitles him. To keep abreast of the times, Ohio Wesleyan has supplemented the cultural studies, such as the Classics, Literature, Philosophy and the Languages with the Arts and Sciences demanded by conditions of modern civilization. The following list outlines the Departments of Instruction and College Courses that constitute the University: Business Administra- Sciences Social Sciences tion Botany--8 courses Economics--7 courses Education Physics--9 courses History-- 33 courses English Engineering--11 Political Science-- 10 Foreign Languages courses courses Mathematics and As- Geology--12 Sociology--17 courses tronomy courses Home Economics--10 Philosophy and Psy- Zoology--8 courses courses chology Chemistry-- 21 School of Music Physical Education courses School of Fine Arts Religion School of Oratory [photo] Sturges Hall--A Chemistry Building where many students have labored to help solve the mysteries of science. 7 Title A name given to the resource Ohio Wesleyan University: A Fountain of Good in the World (p. 11) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/5f37e51cad3e9865122bebb8eab67bcc.jpg 5d64d492f16eb592eb7a3ee9c2cec165 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 12] [corresponds to page 8 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Preparation for Life Character Building at Ohio Wesleyan PREPARATION of young men and women for life as well as occupation has been a steadfast policy of Ohio Wesleyan since 1842. She has always recognized and met the great responsibility that rests upon a University in directing its students through the four critical and formative years of life. Ohio Wesleyan has so con- sistently taught straight living as well as straight thinking that she has often been called "The Character Moulder." Personal Contact Between Faculty and Students REALIZING the powerful influence that a professor exerts upon the life of his students, the University has always fostered close paternal contact between faculty and undergraduates. That policy necessarily carries with it smaller classes and an aim to give the same grade of instruction to freshmen and sophomores as to juniors and seniors: A quality rather than a quantity production. Daily Chapel DAILY Chapel service is an important and unique part of student life at Ohio Wesleyan. Two things stand out clearly in this dis- tinctive exercise:--it encourages fellowship, solidarity and a demo- cratic spirit.

Description An account of the resource [page 13] [corresponds to page 9 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] As well as Occupation This is one time at which all students congregate. As they throng through the corridors before and after the Chapel Service, there is a wholesomeness and frankness that is created by reason of this daily mingling together. In the second place, the ideal thing is put before them continuously and in the highest form. Even though attendance is compulsory, the atmosphere is devotional and the pre- sentation of the ideal things of life is made in such a simple and superior way as to meet the approval of all types of minds. Other Religious Activities ALTHOUGH attendance is voluntary, the great interest that students take in other religious activities reflects the intense moral earnestness of these young people--The best professors in the University lead the Sunday Bible School Classes for students. The effort is to find and effectively interpret the Scriptures in their prac- tical bearing upon every day life. The Consecration Services, held twice a year; Consultation with students on religious and life problems; The Merrick Lectures on Experimental and Practical Religion; The Y.M.C.A.; The Y.W.C. A.; The Student Volunteer Band composed of students who are preparing for service in the mission field, are all making a mighty impress upon the minds of Ohio Wesleyan's young people.

During the past eighty years, the University has given to civilization more than 30,000 young men and women equipped physically for lives of strenuous work--an army of Doers as well as Thinkers. Physical Education THE University Course, Gymnasium work and athletics are all part of the Department of Physical Education. The University Course prepares men and women to teach athletics, gymnastics and playground activities in Colleges, High Schools, Y.M. C.A.'s, Y.W.C.A.'s, and many other fields of physical endeavor. Ohio Wesleyan has the best equipment in Ohio for this class of work, and its graduates are able to compete with Physical Directors trained in specialized schools. [photo] Edwards Gymnasium.

The aim of the Department is to bring the entire student body to a high standard of physical fitness rather than the development of a few stars. Physical defects are cured, muscles are co-ordinated and students are taught the value of recreation. Boys and girls are taught health habits that prove invaluable in after life. The head of this department is ably assisted by capable leaders for gymnasium classes and well known coaches for the several branches of athletics. An opportunity for all students to participate in some branch of athlet- ics, compulsory gymnasium work, periodical physical examination of students, supervision of student living conditions, consultation with Director of Physical Education (a Physician) are several of the many ways in which Ohio Wesleyan guards the physical welfare of its students.

The Dean or Professor with whom the student has been so closely associated during the most important years of life preparation, exerts a powerful influence in shaping the future of the student. The Professor during this formative period plays the important role of Teacher, Guide and Friend. This personal contact is the saving grace of college life and a powerful inspiration for the future. Consultation with Deans and Professors for vocational guidance is supplemented with business lectures to undergraduates by Ohio Wesleyan Alumni and other prominent business men brought to Delaware for that purpose. Added to these helps, the University conducts psychological examinations to determine the mental aptitude of its students. Ohio Wesleyan gives studied attention to the mind, the heart, the body, and the future of every student within her walls--a well balanced train- ing that develops youths of promise into men and women of prominence.

In Ohio Wesleyan we insist on skill in instruction, enthusiasm for culture, devotion to learning, the pursuit of scholarship. We do not forget that comradeship of life in class and on campus, and intimacy of contact be- tween student and professor are indispensable. The final problem with Ohio Wesleyan is a human one--scholars of high moral purpose, minds trained to perceive the great religious values, personality that is consecrated to the making of a better world. At Ohio Wesleyan we insist that every instructor shall aim not only at the development of high intellectual life and well balanced technical skill, but also the realization of the most intelligent Christian ideal for every student."

Description An account of the resource [page 18] [corresponds to page 14 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Student Life THE city of Delaware is comparatively small with a population of nine thousand, and is largely dominated by the University life. The clean, healthful atmosphere in which Ohio Wesleyan students live is that created by themselves and would be impossible if the University were located in a large city. THe lack of diverting influences engenders a democratic good-will and heartiness among the students and creates an enduring class and college Spirit. At Ohio Wesleyan there is a right balance between the delightful social life of the Campus, the activities and amusements that go hand in hand with youth, and the seriousness of the student's work. To develop individuality, executive ability and self- reliance, the University encourages many student activities outside the regular cur- riculum--Student Government, Athletics, College Publications and various societies, Clubs and organizations. Student Government and Honor Court AN organization of the student body for self-government has been formed which expresses its will through a Student Council in matters affecting the general student interests. The Student Council has legislative functions while the Honor Court is the judicial body which attends to all violations of the Honor Code. Self-government by the women of the University is accomplished through the Women's Student Government Association. It has legislative and executive power in matters pertaining to decorum, exercise, and social life. The positive and constructive end which the University seeks to attain in its college government is to impress its spirit and ideals upon the young men and women who enter its halls, and to constitute them a self-governing body.

Description An account of the resource [page 19] [corresponds to page 15 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] And Activities Athletics THE aim of the department of physical education to make the entire student body physically fit rather than to develop a few star athletes, has increased rather than decreased, Ohio Wesleyan's prowess in all branches of athletics. While many schools, by special effort, have been able to develop one or two branches of sports to a high standard, Ohio Wesleyan's policy has permitted her to put into the field, year after year, strong teams in all major and minor sports--football, basketball and track, tennis, gymnasium team and swimming team. To furthur encourage mass rather than individual athletic training the University has many intra-mural contests in all branches of sports between its classes, fraternities and clubs. An Enviable Record IT is interesting to know that in 1892 Ohio Wesleyan participated in and won the first intercollegiate football game played in Ohio, the first college soccer game in Ohio in 1914 and the first Ohio intercollegiate swimming match in 1917. Ohio Wesleyan has won four State Football Championships and three in Basketball. Besides winning the state relay championship three times in four years, she holds the state record in two events. Ohio High School Basketball Tournament at Delaware BELIEVING that clean sports breed American victories for the future through the training in judgment and avoidance of blunders that they give to participants, Ohio Wesleyan each year conducts the Ohio High School Basketball Tournament in her spacious gymnasium. In fourteen years this event has grown from 6 High School teams to 160 Teams and state-wide interest has increased proportionately.

Fraternities, Clubs and Organizations for All ABOUT half of the men in the student body belong to the thirteen National Greek letter fraternities, while others belong to the Commons Club and the Ohio Wesleyan Union. Each of these organizations has its own house where its members live during the four years of college life. Democracy is the keynote of the success of fraternity life at Ohio Wesleyan and membership is valued more for association and companionship than as a social distinction. There are special organizations for different Departments of Instruction--Science Clubs, the English Writer's Club, The Histrionic Club, The Philosophical Club, The Alliance Francais, The Spanish Club, The Oxford Club for prospective ministers, etc; also four honorary fraternities organized to keep up the standards of oratory, gym- nastics, journalism and music. Ohio Wesleyan is one of 89 leading American Colleges that has been granted a Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. Each year at Recognition Chapel, the last chapel service of the year, undergraduates, alumni and friends listen breathlessly to hear the names of those who, by excellence in scholarship, have won the right to wear the key of this most ancient of fraternities.

Description An account of the resource [page 21] [corresponds to page 17 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Ohio Wesleyan in National Life THE country looks to its Universities and Colleges to produce men trained for leadership--not only industrial, but moral, social and physi- cal leadership. For 80 years Ohio Wesleyan has contributed to the Country and the World this well balanced trained leadership. Thirty thousand of her sons and daughters have inscribed the name "Ohio Wesleyan" high on the re- cord of professional, commercial, industrial and spiritual accomplishments. Ohio Wesleyan's unswerving purpose is to graduate young men and women of light and leading, of good character and impassioned devotion to high ideals--graduates who have the ability to serve, as well as the will to serve. Ohio Wesleyan's Contribution to Public Education RUSKIN says: "There is only one cure for public distress and that is public education." To provide public edu- cation, schools, colleges and universities need more and better teachers. During its 80 years of public service Ohio Wes- leyan has given the world thousands of men and women taught to teach. She has provided thirty College and University Presidents to such well known schools as Penn. State, Uni- versity of Kentucky, Univer- sity of Nevada, Armour In- stitute, De Pauw, Miami, Ohio Northern, Iowa Wes- leyan, Kansas Wesleyan and others equally well known. This educational influence has extended to many for- eign countries; one conspicu- ous example being Peking University, China, where President Hiram H. Lowry, '67 has exerted a powerful influence for good in the Far East. Over 400 Ohio Wesleyan Alumni are deans or Pro- fessors in Colleges and Uni- versities; upwards of 200 are High School Principals and more than 1200 are teachers in grade and high schools.

Description An account of the resource [page 22] [corresponds to page 18 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Ohio Wesleyan Ohio Wesleyan's Contribution to the Church IN Methodism, Ohio Wesleyan is aptly called "The Mother of Bishops." After Luccock and McCabe, great men whose light still shines undimmed, come Bishops Anderson, Hoss, Hughes, McConnell, McDowell and Thirkfield. Three of her Presidents, Thompson, Bashford and Welch, have been elevated to the episcopacy. For many years the late Bishop Bashford directed all Methodist missionary work in China, while Ex-President Welch is now Bishop of Korea and Japan. John R. Mott says that Ohio Wesleyan has sent out more missionaries than any other American co-educational school, yet only one-fifth of her students are preparing for religious work. The number of theological students fur- nished by the college is not surpassed by any other school. The University has given the Church upwards of one thousand ministers of the Gospel; three hundred Foreign Missionaries and hundreds of trained workers to the Y. M.C.A., Y.W.C.A., and other religious organizations. These Christian characters have made the name of America blessed in the far corners of the Earth through the message of human sympathy they bore and the lives of service they lived. Ohio Wesleyan in Political and Official Life OHIO Wesleyan has admirably met the ever present demand for virile, upstanding, God-fearing men in public life. As Senator from Indiana and Vice-President of the United States, the late Charles Warren Fairbanks, class of 1872, was an exemplar of the Ohio Wesleyan tradition of straight thinking and straight living--qualities so neces- sary in steering our Nation through its great crises into normal, well ordered life. Ohio Wesleyan has the creditable record of providing such distinguished men as Herrick, Pattison and Foraker to serve a total of five terms as Chief Executive of Ohio; in addition to Governors for six other states--Hamilton of Illinois, Elbert of Colorado, Atkinson of West Virginia, Hoyt of Wyoming, Cosgrove of Washington and Steele, the first Governor of Okla- homa. At least a dozen of the alumni have been elected to the United States Senate and House of Representatives, while many more have rendered distinguished ser- vice as Ambassadors, Minis- ters and Consuls in the foreign service.

Ohio Wesleyan Prominent in Many Lines of Endeavor OHIO Wesleyan Alumni have not only distinguished themselves in Education, Religion and Politics, but they have an enviable record of accomplishments in the fields of Business, Law, Journalism, Medicine and other Professions. Even an incomplete analysis of Wesleyan Alumni indicates 1485 successfully engaged in business enterprises such as Manufacturing, Banking, Engineering and Con- struction; 721 in Medicine and 209 in Agriculture. Space will not permit an enumeration in the hundreds who have reached the top of the ladder in these several fields of endeavor. In addition to 404 alumni engaged in the practice of Law, Ohio Wesleyan has supplied her own state with two Attorney-Generals and a Chief Justice; the United States with a Judge of the Supreme Court of Appeals; Idaho with a Chief Justice of Supreme Court, Colorado and Indiana with Judges of the Supreme Court. Besides the 228 in Government Service, 60 alumni are serving as Public Lecturers, Singers, Dramatists and Ac- tors. Of the 200 in Journalism, several are editors of Christian Advocates; Dr. George Gould of the Medical Journal; E. J. Wheeler, Editor of Current Opinion; W. F. Bigelow, Editor of Good Housekeeping; Stella V. Roderick, formerly Associate Editor of Everybody's, now Editor of The Woman Citizen; Edward Keen is Manager of the United Press for Europe and Melville E. Stone is inter- nationally known as President of the Associated Press. In the invention of the telephone, one of the greatest contributions to modern progress, Prof. A. E. Dolbear, class of 1866, is generally assigned a place as co-inventor with Alexander Graham Bell. In the development of X-Ray Photography, now so necessary in diagnosis and surgery, H. Clyde Snook, class of 1900, has played a most important part. No record of alumni accomplishments would be com- plete without including the name and good works of Frank Wakeley Gunsaulus, class of 1875. In his dual role as Pastor of the Central Con- gregational Church of Chi- cago and the founder and President of the Armour In- stitute, Chicago, he qualifies as one of Ohio Wesleyan's distinguished men in both religious and educational work. In Charles E. Jefferson, Pastor of Broadway Taber- nacle, New York City, the Congregational Church has fallen heir to another noted alumnus.

It is a complete school of Musical Culture and Learning. Its scope has been enlarged to meet the needs of a growing institution and the increasing importance of music in education. The school is organized to serve two types of students--those who expect to make music their vocation, and those seeking to broaden their general culture. The Course covers theoretical and applied music in both instrument and voice. In all musical work thoroughness of preparation rather than superficial brilliance is encouraged. With musical traditions and accomplishments extending back over 45 years--with a hundred students pursuing the full course in music and two hundred twenty-five taking music in some form or another, is it any won- der that the spirit of music permeates the entire student body. On the campus, in the fraternities, at the games or wherever young folks assemble, Ohio Wesleyan music is ever present and in demand.

Wesleyan won. This was Harvard's first appearance on an Ohio debating floor, and the state- ment is typical of the esteem in which Ohio Wesleyan debating teams have been held for many years. During the past year she has won all ten debates in which her team has participated; sometimes on one side of the question and sometimes on the other; against leading colleges and univer- sities from Harvard, champions of the east, to Occidental, Los Angeles, champions of the west. Ohio Wesleyan's students have always received unusual training in the art of public speech. They are taught to "think on their feet," and "stick to their text." The univer- sity has insisted that its graduates shall be able to express themselves clearly, convinc- ingly and logically; a sincere effort is made to develop in every student the power of persuasive expression. The value of Debate and Oratory in the student's life work is admirably expressed by President Hoffman in the following words: "To be able to think quickly, to organize one's materials hurriedly to meet the state- ment of an opponent, to perceive clearly the fallacy of a conclusion, this is indispensible in high achievement. This quality of mind translated in statesmanship, in business, in medicine, in practical life means everywhere genius and honor and success. At Ohio Wesleyan we constantly strive to prepare citizens who are competent to make the best public sentiment, who are wise in moral and social leadership, whose poise of mind and soul is equal to any emergency. No department contributes more to this important purpose than our well-organized and splendidly equipped department of Oratory.

Description An account of the resource [page 27] [corresponds to page 25 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Ohio Wesleyan a Co-educational University BY reading the preceding pages, the reader has learned that Ohio Wes- leyan is a Co-educational School. When it was founded in 1842, the co-education of the sexes in the higher schools of learning was practically unknown. Even at that early day the advancing sentiment of the Country was bringing women more and more prominently, not only into social life, but into public and responsible positions in the educational, religious, profes- sional and secular fields of labor. To meet this demand for higher educa- tion for daughters as well as sons, the Ohio Wesleyan Female College was established in Delaware in 1853. However, the debate for and against University Co-education continued for many years, so it was not until 1877 that Ohio Wesleyan Female College became part of Ohio Wesleyan University, and mixed classes were established. Today Ohio Wesleyan's attendance of 1600 students is equally divided between men and women.

Description An account of the resource [page 28] [corresponds to page 26 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] Ohio Wesleyan Historic Old Monnett MONNETT HALL, the home of the girls attending Ohio Wesleyan, is the second largest girl's dormitory in the Country. It is a romantic, ivy covered old building, surrounded by a beautiful campus and shadowed by stately oaks and tall maples, growing as nature planted them. Pending the completion of the large girl's dormitory, now under construction, as a unit of the Monnett group, many of the girls live out in town at the various cottages, as they are called; yet, the women's life of the University centers in historic "Old Monnett." Its halls are hung with prints of the World's great pictures, and contain many of the University's trophies and Art Treasures. It accommodates the Y.W.C.A., the Library, many class rooms and the two literary society halls, decorated in artistic style. A charter member of the oldest society was Miss Lucy Webb, the first student in the old Female Academy, and later the wife of President Ruther- ford B. Hayes. A handsome full length mirror in the main corridor was presented to Monnett by Mrs. Hayes while she was Mistress of the White House.

Description An account of the resource [page 29] [corresponds to page 27 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] A Co-educational University The wholesome every day life at Monnett blossoms into impressive and festive exercises on special occasions and holidays. Every day, three hundred girls sit down together in the big dining room. One of the mem- orable occasions is the breakfast on Easter morning, when the girls come from the sunrise prayer meeting, all in white, two by two, into the dining room. The tables are gay with ferns and daffodils and at each plate is a card of greeting from the Y.W.C.A. On Monnett Day the girls form one long, white procession winding among the trees to the music of the "Spring Song." Then comes the crowning of the May Queen, the fantastic festive dances, the pageant, the play and the May-pole. Imagine the sweetness, the color and the gayety of that day. School of Fine Arts ON the right of Monnett Campus we see Lyon Hall with its round, gray-stone tower. It contains the School of Fine Arts, in which, besides regular courses in drawing and painting, a special study is made of home decoration. The rear of the building contains the new labora- tories for the courses in Home Economics. On the left, is Sanborn Hall, a model of classical beauty within and without. It is the home of the School of Music, fully described in other pages of this book. University Records show that Wesleyan women have made their marks in all fields of national endeavor and especially in one field that transcends all others in its glory, its sacredness and its greatness--Home-Making. 3634 of the Alumnae are recorded as Home-Makers.

Description An account of the resource [page 30] [corresponds to page 28 of OWU "A Fountain of Good in the World" 1922] An Inspiring Message from William F. Anderson, Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church "By Their Fruits Ye Shall Know Them" "THE most noteworthy thing about Ohio Wesleyan University is its output of men and women for practical leadership in the various departments of human activity. "By their fruits ye shall know them" is a standard of measurement which comes to us upon the highest authority. Adjudged by this standard the old college at Delaware stands in the very first rank. her ideals have gone out through all the earth and her men and women to the end of the world. Her sons and daughters have won the highest distinction in the classics, in science, in philosophy, in literature, in the various professions, in business, in statesmanship, in the Christian ministry and in all forms of social, philanthropic and missionary propa- ganda. To know the facts is to stand in admiration and wonderment at the human product of this institution. I suspect that one of the chief reasons to be given in explanation of the remarkable success which has attended those who have been trained here is to be found in the emphasis which has ever been placed upon the cultivation of vital religion in the program of the University. The institution itself is a monument to the spirit of sacrifice which has characterized its progenitors and builders from the beginning. This is really the birthright of Ohio Wesleyan University which has made it what it is and which is to be cherished now and through all the future years with unwavering and ever increasing appreciation. Such institutions are all too few even in America. An investment in Ohio Wesleyan University is an investment for scholarship, for truth, for broad culture, for human progress, for world betterment, for the Kingdom of God in America and to the ends of the earth."
