Yellow signifies wisdom, which we have tried to grasp during our high school years. Red shows the sincere love we cherish for our friends and classmates. Silver, cool and gleaming, is the symbol of peace and calm. The qualities portrayed in these colors are necessary for success and happiness in life, and for this reason, we, the members of the January Class of 1929, chose them to express our hopes and wishes for the future. —Loretta Horn. Class Motto We, the January Class of 1929, have chosen, "Climb though the Rocks Be Rugged," for our motto. It implies that though life may be full of hardships and troubles we must strive steadily onward if we would meet with Success. Every one of us is going to meet with some hardships, some will be more difficult than others; regardless, we must endure them bravely if we desire to reach the shining goal—Success.

Class Flowers We, the January class of 1929, have chosen the yellow tea rose and the sweet-pea as our Class Flower. The yellow tea rose, the empress of the garden, is sublime in its ex­ quisite beauty and magnificent splendor. It is the symbol of Venus, the goddess of beauty and love. The rampancy of its growth symbolizes the ardor with which we must strive to climb and reach the goals of our ambitions: its golden-like color suggests the color of our dreams. The sweet-pea, so reserved and yet so fragrant, is the emblem of modesty and spreading renown. Oh that we may be famous yet modest young men and women; that we may incorporate in our characters the qualities these flowers represent. Basil Anagnoste End of Day Away off in the distance The sun is setting low, Wrapped in a hazy garment Which is fringed by a golden glow. But soon that bold gray covering Has extinguished the setting sun, And darkness rules the world again To proclaim that day is done. —Sylvia Snyder. 36 THE LINCOLNIA Our Farewell The January Class of 1929 has been a fine class in so many ways that I shall be very proud to send you forth into the world as representatives of Lincoln High. You have my best wishes for a very happy and success­ ful career. You have great possibilities in you and I trust that you will never be wholly satisfied unless you have done your very best to live up to the high standard which the world expects of you. A gardner may enjoy working among his plants and flowers in their early stage of development but he gets his greatest thrill when the roses are in full bloom. The farmer takes pleasure in tilling the soil and sowing the seed and watching the grain grow in the fields but his heart rejoices when the harvest time comes and he sees that his labors are rewarded with a bountiful crop. So it is with the principal of a high school. He watches with delight the gradual development of the boys and girls who enter his school in then- early years. They are growing and changing from day to day, developing new traits and strengthening old ones. But his proudest moment comes at Commencement time when the large class of boys and girls who have been with him all these years passes before him to receive their diplomas as a symbol of the fact that their high school work has been completed. —James B. Smiley.

Class Song Our time has come to say "Goodbye" To all of you dear friends, We'll cherish you in memory And try to make amends For all that we have failed to do— Within our high-school day When we entered here with blithsome hearts But that was yesterday! We'll think of all the happy days We've spent at Lincoln High, We'll ever strive to do great deeds Inspired in days gone by; The skill we've gained, we'll try to maintain And the symbols of "honor" and "truth" Which are found in Lincoln's Red and White Will refresh our dreams of youth. Chorus: - We gather here—this time our last Which later in legends we'll tell We'll honor you dear old Lincoln High, And now we bid you "farewell." -Sylvia Snyder. THE LINCOLNIA 37 Class History of the JANUARY CLASS OF 1929 HE faculty and student body at Lincoln High School on February 2, 1925, were overcome with joy for on that most important day the TJanuary class of 1929 made its first appearance within the walls of the esteemed institution. Then began four years of impressive activities. As freshmen we exerted our efforts to the utmost attempting to make ourselves admired by that group of individuals, who called themselves upperclassmen. The result was that we quite nonchalantly expended our weekly allowance on elevator tickets and on reserved study hall seats. Even in distress did we attract attention. One of our number, Gertrude Faubel, became panic stricken the first time she tried to find the gymnasium. After getting into the tunnel leading to the boys' gymnasium she decided she was lost. Tearfully for thirty minutes did she run to and fro. Finally she discovered a door and was able to make her way back to the auditorium. Weeping audibly she sobbed her story to the very sympathetic Mrs. Hall. Our first social function was the Freshmen Mixer on October 29, 1925. It was the greatest and most successful entertainment ever given in the history of Lincoln High School. The refreshments were by far superior to those ever offered any freshmen group. While we were enjoying the savory dainties our thoughts leaped ahead to the things that were yet to come. When the time came for dancing the boys made a new short distance running record as they dashed through the tunnel and promptly lined up against the walls of the gymnasium. Few of the spectators will ever forget the prowess the girls evinced as they demonstrated their art in performing the popular Finale Hop. Early in our career some of us discovered that certain clubs admitted ninth graders. A favorite organization was the Kids' Kuriosity Klub. With Professor Amstutz as our sponsor, we tried to add to our slight knowledge of science. "Learn by experience" became our motto. Numerous experiments were performed with surprising results. One time, a fellow member informed us that he had discovered a novel way of giving kisses to his girl friends. Like the traditional citizen from Missouri we demanded proof. After saying "hokus pokus" and a few other mys­ terious words over a kettle he requested that we be as quiet as possible. All of a sudden a shower of kisses—wrapped candy kisses—fell in our midst. In January, 1926, our home room teachers gave us the surprising in­ formation that we were now possessors of enough credits to be classified as sophomores. The boys of our class took advantage of the military training then offered. Even at this early date tall, handsome broad- shouldered heroes like Eugene Waltz and Steve Flagner caused the hearts of the fair maids to go pitter-patter. We became aware of a change in January, 1927. No longer were we to read notices stating that we would attend classes instead of rhetoricals. 38 THE LINCOLNIA

Neither were we refused admittance to the informals. By this time most of the masculine sex had mastered the art of tripping a light fantastic toe. Only occasionally did they trip on the toes of their partners. Finally three years of struggle brought forth reward. We were seniors! We were given the privileges of organizing as a class, buying class rings, having two informals, a formal, and giving orations. All of us were delighted with the last opportunity. But it was John Downing who was especially joyful. He at last had a chance to demonstrate his long practiced bow. As seniors we have made numerous discoveries that will soon be a matter of history. Nelson Schmock decided at this time to remain a bachelor forever. Our faithful and efficient treasurer raised a mustache because he wanted to look as much like Andrew Mellon as possible. Florence, who acts as our secretary, made up her mind not to be an old maid if she can possibly help it. Elmer Strobel's chief ambition is to grow to be six feet tall and to be able to dance like a professional. Whether he will succeed in realizing his fond hopes remains to be seen. Ruth Repka will devote her life to the cause of all pleasingly plump women who desire to have sylph like figures. She has already begun a search for a diet that will have a reducing effect, but which will at the same time contain satis­ fying amounts of pie, whipped cream, etc. The mystery concerning Isabelle Fettel's perseverance in letting her hair grow was also cleared up. Someone made a bet with this Scotch lassie of our class that she would never have long hair. Rather than loose a nickel she suffered with short ends for more than a year. With pride on May 17, 1928, we announced the results of our pro­ longed election. Our officers were Myron Geobelbecker, president; Alice Carey, vice-president; Flornce Barr, secretary; John Downing, treasurer; Helen Clark, assistant treasurer. We chose Myron because we thought him to be a boy with unlimited executive ability. Alice Carey was elected because we knew she could ably assist our president in making and carry­ ing out plans. Florence had a much better memory than most of us so we chose her to act as our secretary. Able bodied Johnny looked quite capable of collecting money from most anyone, so we made him our treasurer. In case he encountered any difficulty, we chose Helen Clark to help him. Thus ends the history of the January class of 1929. This group has played such an important role in the time it has spent at Lincoln that we wonder how those we leave behind will be able to get along after we are gone. We hope especially that the health of the faculty and freshmen will not be impaired because of our departure. We can only say this in con­ solation to those who tearfully bid us good-bye—think what you would have missed if we hadn't come to Lincoln High Schol. —Margaret West. THE LINCOLNIA 39 Class Will We, the January Class of one thousand, nine hundred, twenty-nine A. D. of Lincoln High school, do hereby raise our eyebrows, collect our senses and check our mirth for a short interval, so that we may draw up that weighty document, our Class Will, in a serious and proper manner. ITEM I. Above all, we bequeath to our dear Alma Mater, our loyalty, faith­ fulness and devotion, forevermore. ITEM II. To our beloved principal, Mr. Smiley, and all members of his help­ ful faculty we extend a host of "thank yous" for their patience over some of our nerve racking pranks, and for their careful custody over our wandering youthful minds. ITEM III. To our home room teachers, Miss Cole, Miss Molony, and Mr. Kerr, who are endeared to us by their careful guidance and faithfulness throughout our high school careers, we will a class of new Lincolnites whom we hope will prove to be as obedient and good as we have always been. ITEM IV. To our successors, the large June class of 1929, we bequeath the following: the greatest opportunity of your young lives—the delivering of an oration; the right to become the proud owners of that well known senior affliction—superiority complex; the privilege to use football tactics when dashing for a fruitful goal, the head of the lunch line; plus many more senior customs. ITEM V. Finally, we transmit the outstanding gifts to the following: A new presidential election day for Mr. Baumgartner. A new set of animated orators possessing loud, clear and non-nasal voices to our very patient oratory teacher, Miss Marchand. A book containing new proverbs for Mr. Kerr to analyze during future home-room periods. Better luck and a winning game against West Tech for Coach At­ kinson and his squad. Mudguards for the white jeans of Lincoln's dazzling band uniforms. Francis Wright's bashfulness, quiet reserve and modesty, to George Farnsworth, who is badly in need of it. Myron Goebelbecker's ability to call class meetings to order so suc­ cessfully, to the succeeding 12A president. A ride in John Downing's contraption of Detroit, accompanied with a throng of spectators to our next football hero. Linda George's title of being the liveliest girl and best giggler of her class to Charlotte Heiber. Charlena Bender's art of holding secret love affairs to all other modest Lincolnites. Nelson Schmock's distinction as a "ladies man" to George Moss, an­ other tall "heart-panter." Thomas Monks' "trying ability" to play football to the star, George Gessner. 40 THE LINCOLNIA

Marie Kolanz and Stella Bratkowitz's Siamese friendship to Phylis Wilhelm and Rita Eyerdam. All of Delta Roper's coquettish qualities to the blonde possessor of "IT," Grace Beles. Russell Wenger's famous devotion to Dorothy Wetzell to all other future Lincoln lovebirds. Beatrice Logan's possession of Clara Bow's crowning glory to Ar­ nold Crell, a bright-headed junior. Robert Mlakar's appellation of political dignity to little Earl Lapp who has attained an astounding interest in the administration of public affairs. To Mr. J. L. Van Horn an industrious class of 12B's who will never get behind in their laboratory experiments. To Miss Margaret L. Mallory a new baton to hit the lOB's with. Douglas Yoho's ability to tease the girls to Philip Eichorn. On this twelfth day of November in the year of our Lord one thous­ and, nine hundred and twenty-eight, in the City of Cleveland, State of Ohio, and County of Cuyahoga, in testimony whereof, hereby, set my hand and seal in the presence of the witnesses of sound mind: Russell Wenger, Linda George. Witnesses: Russel Wenger Signed: Dolores Zeber. Linda George

Girls Sports Basketball, baseball, hiking, tennis, swimming and a health cam­ paign have occupied the spare time of the athletic misses of our class. When Freshmen, many of the girls joined the G. A. A. Teams for all sports were formed and home rooms competed for the championship in various sports. For four years this activity and competition has con­ tinued and when we became 12B's we were runners-up for the cham­ pionship in basketball. There have been many changes in the four years that we have been at Lincoln. Miss Freeman and Miss Potter have come; Miss McKee and Chapman have gone; seven former members of gym classes are now seven leaders of gym classes; even the gym costume has changed, and a corrective gym class has been formed. Two girls are the proud possessors of L. G.'s. An L. G. or Lincoln Girl, is equivalent to six athletic letters and it is indeed an honor to have been so ambitious as to have earned one of them. During our Junior year a city-wide health campaign was started to help girls become more physically fit and to learn them how to take proper care of their bodies. A posture contest held in connection with this campaign was won by a member of our class who possesses perfect posture. There were two gym demonstrations in which every member of our class took some part. Some were farmers and farmerettes, while others were in wand drills or even a basketball game. The demonstra­ tions were held in our gym in order to give parents and friends an idea of what was being done in the gym. THE LINCOLNIA 41

The G. A. A. members and the Leaders also sponsored the football banquet, a sport dance and a St. Patrick's Day dance, so you see we haven't been lacking in other activities. These girls who have taken part in the athletic program at Lincoln will long remember the fun, good sportsmanship and the rules of better and more healthful living which they have had at Lincoln, and hope that because of athletics they will be more fit for their future life. —Helen Clark. Boys Athletics Athletes also held their lure for the members of the January Class of 1929. The gridiron, the basketball court, and the cinder track each beckoned and some boys answered to the call. Six of these lads either earned their letters or else were prominent in the three major sports at Lincoln. Probably the best-known and most famous of the youths is Clifford Skala, all-scholastic basketball guard, football star and track man. He has an enviable record as an athlete, and has done much to enhance Lincoln's fame in the sport world. Basketball was the sport in which he excelled, playing from his freshman year up to his last year at school. His famed "long-shots" have driven many a loyal rooter into fits of ecstasy as they won many a close cage contest. Pitching on the baseball team during his sophomore and junior year was another of the activities in which he engaged. Two years on the football squad and a season on the track team concluded his efforts. He has earned a total of five letters. Russel Wenger has also made five letters and these were all made either on the football or basketball squads. Center was the position which he held down in both sports. Gerard Davis gained prominence as student manager of the football eleven in 1925 and '26. However, as a sophomore, he ran the mile on the track team. Gerard has two "L's" of which he may be justly proud. Playing guard on last year's second place cage quintet was the way in which William Wozney gained his letter. As a ninth grader, "Willie" ran on the 120 pound relay team and was on the "pigskin" squad during his junior year. Theodore Kowal was awarded an "L" for his efforts on the cinder track. He ran on the 880 yard relay team. At the same time that he was a member of the team he was Sports Editor of the Log. John Flash, a shifty and fast basketball foreward, received a letter for his playing on Lincoln's seconds. His most notable effort was back­ hand shot in an East-Lincoln game which won the game for the locals after three oevr-time periods. And last but not least is our own "Tommy" Monks. He has played football ever since he graduated from the eighth grade. First, for Mr. Blum in his freshman year. In the two succeeding years for Mr. Jenkins and finally for the present coach, Mr. Atkinson.

MAY NOT GET OUT IF THEY DON'T Mr. Baumgartner: "When you visit the insane asylum keep your wits about you." Howard: "How much did Helen of Troy weigh ?" Eugene: "I don't know anything about Troy weight." 42 THE LINCOLNIA Class Prophecy ^T) R-R-R!" rang the telephone. Nobody answered it. "B-r-r-r" it fj rang again, this time louder and more insistently as if it were getting impatient. I looked at the clamoring instrument, and while I looked, it rang again. Then I took my feet off the desk, turned in my swivel chair, laid down my magazine (never mind the name) and shot one long scowl in the direction of my office boy, Myron Goebelbecker. As usual he was asleep, snoring as sweetly as a little cherub—that is if cherubs do snore. Something had to be done. I sat in my chair nervously sucking my thumb. The office boy slept on, and the telephone, with renewed energy, was ringing again. Impatiently I pressed the automatic office-boy re­ viver, invented by Frank Gianvito. By abruptly swaying the chair from side to side the reviver did the deed. Myron, awoke "tout de suite," and immediately upon his awakening rushed to the telephone, and answered it with, "United Press, Main Office." It was the year of our lord, 1949, just 20 years after the memorable graduation exercises of the class of '29 from Lincoln high school. The members of the class had dispersed and like a bag of feathers had blown to the four corners of the earth. As I again propped my feet upon the desk, I felt an urge, a desire, a longing to see once again all of those good old classmates of mine and to see what time and tide had brought to them. My thoughts were interrupted by Myron who announced that some­ body wished to speak to me on the telephone. Looking into the television, perfected by the fajmous woman scientist, Genevieve Gorczyca, I beheld the radiant face of Theodore Kowal who had just returned from a trip abroad. This trip he had made for the express purpose of purchasing three hundred downy yellow canaries to be put in his magnificent studio where he conducted a course in temper training for high strung people. Ruth Michalko, as his private secretary, supervised the instructing. It was gossiped abroad that Stella Monkowski and Helen Smith came regularly every week. Theodore and I decided we would lunch together at Grace Franz's German Tea Shoppe on Fifth Avenue, and as we are and always will be, people of our word, ten minutes later we were seated at a little red-and- white checkered table in her shoppe. I rapped smartly on the table and immediately the blond and buxom Arlene Glasenapp dashed up to take our orders. She looked very fresh in her white starched apron and quaint head-dress. In the midst of the meal the dim rose-colored lights went out and a black velvet curtain opened at the far end of the room. There stood Dorothy Meitke and Elmer Strobel arrayed in daring white tights, poised for an acrobatic dance. To the syncopating strains of Beatrice Logan's "Red­ heads," composed of Charlotte Kelly, Trumpet; Florence Greinart, Violin; Ethel Sack, piano; and Veronica Prebis, banjo; (all of whom had somehow THE LINCOLNIA 43 or other acquired locks of a blazing hue) the two dancers flitted lightly across the floor, giving their version of the "Catch me if you Can Fantasie" originated by Elsie Molzahn, premiere danseuse of Andrew Grywalski's "Scandals." The curtains closed for a moment and then opened again to reveal the tall, slim figure of Eleanor Cox swathed in tight black shiny satin from head to foot. She favored us with two songs which had made for her the name of the most famous blues singer in existence. She sang, "Oh Ken­ tucky, Bring Back Margaret" by John Patrick Flash, and "I'm just a Girl That Men Forget" by Helen Patricia Grickulnas, both of whom were well- liked composers. Having finished eating, Theodore and I picked our way out of the crowded room and once more found ourselves in the bright sunshine of an autumn afternoon. Therodore said that he had enjoyed his trip so much and he related so many thrilling experiences that I decided to go to the continent myself. He, being naturally generous, proposed the idea of celebrating the occasion with one last party. I thanked him, and told him that I would meet him at eight. Upon his departure I hied myself to a ticket agency where I nearly fainted dead away at seeing Clement Skrabak in charge. We both shed tears of joy all over his nice mahogany desk, and talked over old times and classmates. He and King Lee, it seemed, controlled just about all of the liners worth controlling. Mary Shufleta made up lovely but exorbitant itineraries for people with undecided minds. I took one. I was advised to sail on board the "Helen" of which Norman Taylor was the captain. Leaving the shipping offices, I hurried to an exclusive haberdashery conducted by Joseph Neubauer. He assisted me in picking out several ties, the futuristic designs of which were made by Fred Karam, who had made millions designing four-in-hand patterns. After making a few other purchases I left the store. Once outside I caught a glimpse of Elmer Busch, who was just hopping out of his Ford aeroplane. I could never get it into my head why Elmer, who became so wealthy posing for collar advertisements, still insisted upon riding in Ford aeroplanes. Despite his weakness, I was glad to see him and chat with him. He told me a lot of newsy things about people of our class. He said, that Delta Roeper, who was a staid old maid with shell-rim goggles, was teaching Sunday School at the church of which Hipolit Kluzik, was pastor; that Thelma Richens, who had formerly been a missionary was now sing at the same church, making the rest of the choir seme quite super­ fluous; that she had given up her former position of teaching poor little Zulu babies how to eat with forks instead of fingers, to Alvin Kentner, who, it was reported, was making remarkable progress with the Zulus. Elmer bade me goodbye, and I continued my purchasing. On my way I passed Russell Wenger's "School of Managing Operettas" and Truman Longly's reducing establishment. Because ten cent stores have always held a certain fascination for me, I stepped into one which was near. Above the store, on a large sign 44 THE LINCOLNIA

stood the words, "Buy it at Waltzes. It 's Cheaper," and the words brought to my mind the tragic fate of Mr. Kresge and Mr. Woolworth, when Eugene Waltz became established in the ten cent store business. As the store ha dall male salesmen, I espied Steve Flagner standing de­ murely behind the jewelry counter, selling ear jewels to Ruth Stroh who was doing her Christmans shopping. I also perceived John Neczypor standing behind the hairpin counter, bickering over some hairpins with Isabel Fettel who possessed the title of having the longest hair of any woman in the world. In a corner of the store back of the artificial flower display stood Thomas Monks who was very much interested in arranging some cute little pink rose-buds in a black vase. All of these men had been disappointed in love and were therefore compelled to earn their own livings. Feeling fatigued I went home. There I picked up "Love in the Dark" by Basil Anagost, popular author whose popularity had pushed Elinor Glyn into oblivion. As I believed music would make the story more romantic, I turned on the radio and was greeted by the "announcer with the million-dollar voice," Douglas Yoho, who announced a story to be rendered by Dorothy Lechner, widely known for her "baby songs." Next Douglas announced a play entitled "Why Men Propose," by Naomi Fankhauser, who was considered the only living rival of Eugene O'Neil. The heroine was portrayed by Mary Wojdacz, the hero by Robert Miklaszewski, and the villian by Michael Revilock while the "cause of it all" was acted by Vlasta Planicka, the most successful portrayer of vamp parts known to the world of drama. The play went on, but as I glanced at the clock, I saw that it was time to dress, so I pulled the gong, and the maid, Ruth Repka, told the butler, Fred Neubauer, to summon the valet, Joseph Pecenka. He brought my clothes, and in two shakes I was ready for the affair. Promptly as always, Theodore swooped down onto my roof-platform with his Rolls- Royce aeroplane, and off we hopped. I found out that the party was to be at Dolores Zeber's "Moulin Rouge American" the most famous of New York Night clubs, run by the most charming of New York's night club hostesses. Here we met Harvey Deike who was a horticulturist and the sole grower of the perfect grape­ fruit that never squirts. Bennie Barowski was also in attendance. He was the conductor of an old ladies' home for poverty-stricken teachers. Bernard Edelman favored the party with his presence, and a favor it was, because it was no other than he who had Tammany Hall at his beck and call. Nettie Kubiak, the waitress, was garbed in a Pierritte costume, as were the other waitresses. The idea owed its founding to the ingenuity of Robert Malakar who was proficient in his line. Nettie brought us genuine cocktails, and we drank them, we made a toast to Andrew Guzay, who as a senator, had succeeded in having the Volstead act repealed. Two tables away from us sat the queen of the "Came the Dawners." Anne Aganes, who was known to her classmates as Anna Sramek. She was being entertained by New York's own society matron, Irene Gannon. I broke away from the party at an early hour amid wishes of "bon voyage." Sleep was the one thing I needed, and fearing that perhaps I would be unable to go to sleep at once, I took up Alton Conley's book, THE LINCOLNIA 45

"How to Sleep at Any time and Any place." This helped me because I felt that it was written sincerely. Bright and early the next morning, I boarded the "Helen" which was to sail in, three hours. The chief stewardess, Helejn Hodgeman showed me to my stateroom. I had not been there long, when John Hel- mer, first mate, offered to show me over the boat. As we were walking along the upper deck, some one shouted, "Man— I mean, Woman overboard!" Terror struck my heart. I rushed to the rail just in time to see Florence Barr finishing a neat Jack-knife dive into the blue waters beneath. After coming up from the dive, she swam right out to the Statute of Liberty and back and thought nothing of it. Apparently the person who had screamed, knew nothing of the prowess of Florence Barr, woman swimming champion of the world. The mate took me to the boiler room where we found, not Miss Marchand, but Thomas Dainto, chief boiler—er—that is, well, head of the boiler department. We next journeyed to the kitchen, where we came upon Dorothy Beck. She had grown quite stout and her hair was all frowzy. Her face was read and the sweat was dripping from her brow because she was standing over a boiling kettle. She was the ship's cuisiniere. Eleanor Bayer was her able assistant. While we were promenading on the first class deck, the mate nudged me and whispered, "Sh' look, there's Theresa Valentine." I looked and was impressed with the sight of a smart-looking individual, followed by a Russian Wolfhound. Of course every one knew this woman who had such a nice number of divorces to her credit. In the lobby of the ship, hanging on the main wall, was a full length painting of Francis Wright, the president of the United States. At the left of the picture hung that of the first woman vice-president in history, Katherine Tompkins. I learned that the ship's concert was to be given the next day and I eagerly looked forward to the occasion. The first number on the program was to have been done by Eunice Casterline, but because Dorothy Wiese's tight-rope-walking kitties had eaten all of Eunice's singing gold fish, that part was postponed. Instead, Kathryn Gansley, who was the first woman to safely go over Niagara Falls in a barrel, gave a talk on her experience and related the sensation so vividly that she succeeded in making two people of the audience split their sides right open from laughing at her. Eleanor Abraham and Opal Decker, orators, completed the program with .a debate on "Clinging Vines." The decision was made by Helen Clark chief Justice of the Supreme Court. After the ship's concert, I walked into the lounge to find that it was being redecorated. William Wozney, dressed in spats and a monocle, was just saying, "Oh, deah! That purple scarf can never hang next to that window pane." The incident so grated upon William's sense of beauty that he proceeded to go into hysterics and necessitated calling the ship's doctor. Jeannette Wilcox who it is said works wonders with male patients. 46 THE LINCOLNIA

Just then in rushed Marie Kolanz prominent Clubwoman to tell me that land had been sighted and sure enough looking through the port­ hole that Henrietta Schwartz wasn't using as a laviliere I saw land. In no time at all the steamer had pulled into harbor and was emit­ ting a long stream of passengers. In the midst of a large group of cheering people who were bowing and strewing roses about her stood Emily Anderson who had liked the way the Prince of Wales danced and so had married him thus becoming the queen of England. The boat had landed at Cherbourgh. Not knowing how to get to a hotel I hailed a taxi and was overjoyed to find the handsome driver w*as no other than Russell Huge. He recommended the Hotel Korpp run by our friend Mildred. At the hotel I ran right into John Downing who told me that he was prospering in French Undertaking. His mustache had grown quite mature and looked quite Frenchy. As he left me with a hearty handshake I looked spell bound towards a figure in mauve velour overalls who carried a plush handled pipe wrench and a diamond studded pair of pliars. Howard Kobs! Upon my word! Surely he must be a head plumber. I was going to speak to him but just then Lubamira Kopcok, prominent foreign correspondent for the New York Herald stumbled out of the elevator, and in a great frenzy ran to Howard to tell him in screeching tones that the hot water in her "bawthtub" refused to shut off that the water had run all over her suite. This so shocked Howard that he stood petrified, while Lubamira continued to wring her hands and carry on something frightfully. The excitement was too much for me and so I checked out and boarded a train for Paris. My companion was Martha Dianiska who was busily engaged in reforming Frenchmen. Two hours later the train drew into Paris, and as I descended, the three little steps, I heard some one call my name. At a short distance stood Lorene Sweet and her six strapping youngsters, who were also traveling abroad. She told me that I must go to Sylvia Baker's Piggly Wiggly Hotel because just a few of my friends were staying there. I followed her advice and took a taxi to the hotel. Mildred Barnakow was the first person. She was blind-folded and was being given a cigarette test. Of course they wanted the name of the world's most agile tennis player. A great barking and general con­ fusion diverted my attention to Alice Carey and her seventeen little white poodle dogs who did everything but talk. Ralph Kundtz hosiery manufacturer, rushed up to me at that moment and said, "You're just the person I'm looking for. I have two tickets for the opera tonight." Seated at the opera that evening I was totally unprepared for the shock I was to receive. The manager of the Vienna Opera Company was Hilda Garde Salzer. She was putting on for tonight, Loretta Horn's version of "La Boheme" in which the dainty heroine, Helen Spooner, had the mumps instead of tuberculosis. Gerard Oliver Davis sang the tenor part of Rudolph and made Lucille Holt and Nellie Tampson ruin their dazzling beaded evening gowns with salty tear drops. Helen Sobe ably directed the entire performance. (Continued on Page 66) THE LINCOLNIA 47 The Guard System The guard system probably has claimed more boys of our class than any other single club or organization. Since it was put in practice, im­ mediately after the military system was abolished, almost all of the boys were guards at some time. For this service a credit in gym was given, and the guards were excused from this obligation. The guards are chosen for their loyalty, scholarship and ability. They are put in the halls during all periods to keep order, and are sta­ tioned in the cafeterias during lunch hours to keep order and quiet. In their twelfth year the guards are given pins by Miss Coyner (who or­ ganized and now has charge of this work) for their services to this organization for the school. These pins are donated through the cour­ tesy of the Pearl Street Savings and Trust Company, who are sincerely interested in this work. Boys who have already received their pins are, Eugene Waltz, Elmer Strobel, Howard Kobs, Myron Goebelbecker, Andrew Guzay, and John Helmer. Other boys who served are Fred Karam, Joseph Pecenka, and Thomas Monks. Boys now on guard and in line for pins at the close of this semester are Russell Wenger and myself. —Russell Huge. Class Poem Dear Lincoln, as we leave you, To go our separate ways, We shall carry in our hearts Remembrances of happy days. The ideals you have taught us, Shall forever cherished be; Though we may wander far away, They'll live in our memory. The road to success is steep, The rocks are many and high, But each of us his aim to win, The difficult climb should try. We cannot shirk our duty, But must work our way along; We dare not sit by the wayside, We must join the climbing throng. Let us strive on each tomorrow, For the goal we set today; May victory crown our efforts, As we tread life's rocky way, We'll bravely meet the challenge; In whatever we may do, We'll climb though rocks be rugged, Dear Lincoln High, for you. —Florence Barr. 48 THE LINCOLNIA

Seniors have many privileges that make their title so desirable to the Freshman, to the Wise Fools (Sophomores) and to the Juniors. Every Senior is privileged to attend the meeting of his class. Dur­ ing the election period every Senior thinks of his possibilities of being elected into some office; so he goes to the meeting with an air of su­ periority; he waits for one to nominate him, but in vain. As the time passes on he is getting more nervous, seeing that all the offices are already occupied. The meeting is over and he goes home downhearted and humiliated, and almost ready to cry. It is customary for every Senior to give an oration, before he gradu­ ates. After choosing an easy subject he writes his oration with many long words he does not know the meaning of. After memorzing it so well that he is able to deliver it while sleeping, he is ready to deliver it in the auditorium. This is the supreme moment of the Senior. He stands outside the auditorium practicing the heebie-jeebies. He is called on the stage, feeling like a fish that is taken out of the water. After he is introduced he delivers his oration with a vibratory voice—the vi­ bration of the voice is not due to enthusiasm. At last he finishes and goes and sits down, thinking that he did not do so badly after all. The Senior is privileged to be engaged to the school. The ring he wears makes him eruditious; he tries to show it in every way possible to his underclassmen, e. g. opening a book, scratching his nose, moving his face in such a way as to make it conspicuous to his neighbors, etc. Besides all these, the Seniors has informals, formals, class night and at last the commencement. After the commencement is over, the saddest moment of the Seniors comes. They have to part from their four-year acquaintances, from their teachers, and from their school—it is like parting from home. But let us be optimists and see only the good side of our high school career that we may, in later years, remember our last semester in high school with good will. —Basil Anagnost. Favorite Sayings of the Faculty Mr. Adell "All right, come in the eighth." Mr. Baumgartner "Why, ye-es!" Miss Cole "Now, children, we'll, etc.__" Miss Cowing "I shall now collect the homework." Mr. Ditmer "My error, your treat; want a chocolate soda?" Mr. Dunham "What would you do if you were in my place?" Miss Inman "That's very effective!" Mr. Kerr "What's right?" Miss Mallory "Please pass the heavy blue books." Miss Marchand "Say it out loud twenty times!" Miss McCoy "Now I don't want to seem cross, but__" Miss Miller "Go on from there, Paul." Miss Molony "Would you like to do that?" Mr. Monks "May I speak to Thomas?" Miss Gerhan "Pour Demain—" 54 THE LINCOLNIA Miss Page "Wait till the second bell, please!" Miss Palmer "I n0Pe vou wil1 £ive this wel1 when the day comes." Miss Stilson "Isn't that jolly?" Mrs. Mickey "You've just got to cut down on the errors!" Miss Wisner "Now see here, class." Miss Kerr "Let's get busy now." Miss Pilcher "Oh, class!" Miss Thompson "I'm sick and tired—" Miss Van Fleet "May I say a word here?" —Jeanette Wilcox. Statistics Elmer Busch is the palmer of our class. He has a mit that would dwarf that of Muscle Shoals. After much effort, it was found that the avoirdupois of Truman Longley is 9,486,299 marks. In the English system this represents 194 pounds. Kathryn Gansley's Ford can go only fifteen miles per hour. How­ ever, you can't expect a passenger car to work too hard. The person with the warmest heart is none other than Dorothy Lechner. She could even melt butter in a room where the temperature is ninety degrees. Nelson Schmock is honored as being the tallest human being in our class. I do not like to slight Francis Wright, but according to the given definition, he is left out. It has been calculated that if all the medals, cups, and ribbons, Miss Ina Wisner has promised pupils were placed end to end, they would reach from the top of the new Union Station to the sidewalk below. Alvin Kentner is the champion gum chewer in the school. He won first prize recently in a contest conducted by Miss Mallory. Out of all the faculty members and seniors, Miss Cole and Miss Wis­ ner and (John Ingram is the only one that knows anything about English.) Four out of every five have it. Beware! Beware!! Beware!!! No. my dear readers, it is not pyorrhea, but just the mere habit of not doing their homework. Statistics show that Loretta Horn is not that kind of a girl. According to the things that Joe Pecenka says and does in the Civics class, he will be an expert on women when he is a big man. During the past three and one-half years, Theresa Valentine has been well acquainted with the mimeograph operators, and at present she holds down the job of running this machine. Result: She is vale­ dictorian of our class. John Downing, in shaving, uses fourteen razor blades a year. No doubt he will use more when his beard gets stiffer and when he shaves his upper lip. It has been learned that Theodore Kowal, during his career as a track man, has walked 1,283,490 ties. The reason for Norman Taylor's always being low in funds is Helen Smith. Andrew Guzay has more brains than any other person in the school. THE LINCOLNIA 55

No doubt this is the reason why "Andy bursts the seat in so many band trousers. Steve Flagner broke five fiddle strings last week. This is no dis­ grace, for it shows that he must practice diligently. Helen Hodgman holds the record for slapping boys. From this pastime of hers, her right hand has become very calloused. Statistics show that Elmer Strobel has a good chance of becoming the school janitor some day. He will at least have had some experience. When a certain somebody is absent, Eugene Waltz does not have his College Algebra homework. No, Eugene doesn't copy; this certain some­ body happens to be himself. Last week Girard Davis took in only five shows. This makes a total of nine classes cut. If the energy Russ Wenger uses in carrying Dorothy W's books was used to better advantage, there is no doubt that Russ would have been valedictorian of our class. It has been estimated that there are 19,264 tunes in Alton Conley's French horn. Statistics show that Helen Spooner isn't what her name suggests. The number of smacks in a bowl of soup is thought to be infinite. This theory was devised by Joseph Neubauer. According to an eminent biologist, Myron Goebelbecker, girls with spit curls will never be healthy. Myron states that the precious fluid, saliva, used in plastering down these obnoxious* things, should be used only in the digestion of food. A scientist, Howard Kobs, has discovered a way for making leather heels noiseless. All that is needed, he says, is a piece of rubber nailed to the bottom of them. The heavens soon shall be conquered. Michael Revilock is at present constructing a telescope which will make the one on Mt. Wilson look like a toy. In an interview he stated that he might use the Mt. Wilson telescope as an eyepiece in his. The scandal is untrue and now the honor of Henrietta Schwarz is safe. It has been proved that she is no relation to our cheer leader. The reason for the shortage of grease has been discovered. John Flash and Basil Anagnoste have a monopoly of the market. They wish to make sure that their hair will always stay back. Douglas Yoho loses his title as the toughest guy in the class. His crown goes to Fred Neubauer, who, we learned, eats two hard-boiled eggs every morning. The reason that Russ Huge staked his claim on Edna Rapier is that she has five gold teeth. By using progression, an operation in algebra, it has been found that Elsie Molzahn's hair is two feet seven inches in length. This method had to be resorted to, as Elsie is never seen around school with her hair down. There will be an abundance of paint and people will be able to have their houses painted at a very small cost. All this was brought about by Arlene Glasenapp and Eleanor Bayer, who have given up using cosmetics. There will be a shortage of leather next year, as Ralph Kundtz and Thomas Monks each bought a pair of new shoes. Both these boys wear size twelve. —Harvey Deike.

Just Before a Quiz Did you ever sit and notice How tedious it is To listen to a lesson Just before a quiz? I have; and let me tell you It surely is no fun Alistening to the teacher Before the test's begun. She doesn't even tell you Exactly what to do, You surely have to use your head In order to get through. Therefore you think it tiresome, It really is a sin To listen to the teacher When you're anxious to begin. -Sylvia Snyder. THE LINCOLNIA 59

Francis Hill, check girl, gave up our wraps and we set off for a roof-garden. Once seated at our table Ralph told me that the program for the evening was to be a fashion show displaying the latest creations of Clifford Skala, who, it was universally conceded, had taken away the title of the world's fashion setter from Jean Patou. The first model was Edna Rapier who appeared in a charming bathing suit of white velvet. Next came Charlena Bender, dressed as a little girl with a big blue hair ribbon topping her unruly curls. Gertrude Faubel appeared next in "what the well-dressed washer­ woman should wear." Stella Bratkowitz looked very charming in a transparent afternoon tea gown. Sylvia Cunningham completed the program by coming out in a garment made entirely of the wings of poor little butterflies captured in the wilds of Alaska by the ruthless Margaret West. She had proven so successful in that field that she was now taking a course in husband catching taught by Marion Giesser. Then to the dreary strains of the Blue Danube Waltz played by Florence Riciny and her string trio, composed of Flora Haeni, violin; Mary Miterko, cello; and Sylvia Mlazovsky, violo; the last and most interesting number of the program followed. Linda George, the dancing prodigy of the age, who had all of Sarah Bernhardt's dramatic ability, all of the wickedness in Theda Bara's eyes, and who was the one person who had the power to make the late Isadora Duncan appear insignificant, gracefully and lithely did the dance of the seven veils which completely captivated her audience. As I made my way back to the hotel, I rejoiced that the members of the graduating class of 1929 had found so much happiness and had so generously given to the world, some of her most famous talent which even in the centuries to come, would never be forgotten. —Nelson K.

The Vice-President of an Ohio National bank recently ap­ plied for a life insurance policy for his sixteen-year-old son and gave the following reasons for wanting the insurance:

Because—I believe every boy should start in life from his father's shoulders. I am trying to give all the benefit of my experience to the important things of life that I can and life insurance is' one of them.

Because—I am a banker and realize somewhat better than the average man, I believe, the value of regular and syste­ matic saving.

Because—While helping to settle and adjust many many estates, I have visited many bereft homes, have known many families suddenly deprived of the provider and pro­ tector. I know what life insurance has' meant to many more.

Because—I have matured one policy and know the sensation.

Because—Of the many dark places' in my life that have been made so much brighter by the thought of the insurance I carry.

Because—I can save my Son considerable money by starting his insurance and carrying it for him for the five years', while he is finishing high school and college, before he could take it out for himself.

Because—I know that if he can only keep up these small pay­ ments, no matter what else may happen to me, to him or to his1 investments, he will have an estate some dav.

/. will be glad to talk the matter over with you and supply all the details without obligation

The members1 of the graduating class of January, 1920, are congratulated on attaining another height in their suc­ cessful climb towards' intelligence and sterling character. There are many other levels to be reached, but the success of the past is the guarantee of the successes of the future.

Pilgrim Church in all of its history has been the ally of Lincoln High School, and its splendid personal of faculty and student. It presents the outgoing class with its sincerest benediction.
