Without your co-operation we could not have done the many things we have succeeded to do. We have, with your help, made this school stand well in this community and high in the esteem of the other schools in this and other counties and well recommended by the State Department of Public Instruction. Our pupils have enjoyed a pleasant year. Their fellowship has been very close and the splendid co-operation of teacher and pupil has made this year's social life amiable. Contact with good teachers makes the elements of education real. The Sunbury teachers are devoted men and women whose lives are given to the task of helping boys and girls realize their highest possibilities. They aim to teach preparation for service. Their purpose, ideals, and motives are distinctly Christian. Their high standards of scholarship, their interest in health, social and recreational activities help to make the Sunbury boys and girls what we would like to have them. Our school system does not narrow to any one-sided course or pursuit, but endeavors to broaden its possibilities in so far as expansion is co-extensive with good pedagogy. Each department of our school is not forgetful of their weekly or daily religious services. The first six grades hold their services in their respective rooms, while the grammar grades and the high school hold their Chapel service together regularly on Wednesday of each week. This service is frequently honored by some local or foreign visitor who speaks on current topics of interest and shares with the students the inspiration gained through experience. In order that the pupils may be stimulated in Literary Art the Sunbury Board of Education regularly employees a teacher in Public Speaking and Expression. The work of this teacher is required in the first six grades and is made elective in the upper six. Much interest is taken in this work and a marked improvement in expression is noticed among the students. Each pupil is given an opportunity to appear in public at least once during the school year. November the twenty-third the public had an opportunity to hear the lower grades in an appropriate program rendered at the Opera House. While the grammar grades proved themselves capable of pleasing the parents and patrons of the school in a patriotic program given February the Twenty-fourth. The high school regularly maintains its literary societies, the Athenian and Philomathean. Each fall the freshman class is by lot divided into the above mentioned societies. Separate meetings are held monthly at 7:30 o'clock P.M. in the school building, where the public is cordially invited. Here the students are trained in conducting business meetings and are drilled in oration, essay and debate and other numbers of literary nature. Often times after the program a social time is enjoyed in the basement of the building where teacher and pupil become better acquainted and enjoy themselves together. In the spring a literary contest is held between the societies where much interest is displayed. Our high school trains an affirmative and a negative debating team, which meet similar teams from other high schools in Delaware county in friendly debate. We also furnish an orator in the County High School Oratorical Contest. Freehand drawing and landscape painting is taught in the first eight grades. Much interest has been created and the teachers report work well done and much accomplished. Music has made much progress in our schools. The lower grades are taught by their teachers, while the upper grades are supervised by Mr. Neilson. The high school orchestra and glee club have done exceedingly well, and have furnished musical enjoyment at most of the school's public programs, and during Chapel. Now and then they render a public program. They will furnish the music at the baccalaureate and commencement exercises. Although athletics are secondary in our school we think them necessary. We try to develop winning teams, but to win at any price is not our aim. Our boys and girls have won one bronze, one silver and two gold medals in athletic contests within the last year. And the girls track team has held the silver loving cup of the Delaware County Athletic Association as a prize won at the track meets in 1921 and 1922. We encourage the moral, mental, physical and social aspects of our school life and try not overemphasize any one of them to the utter lack or destruction of the other. We believe in a system that will be all round and one that will be adapted to the needs of the community in which we live. We invite you to the school. We solicite the hearty co-operation of citizen, patron and alumnus. We believe that where there is union there is strength. A word now and then of constructive criticism and encouragement will make your school and mine bigger and better. So with best wishes to all we bid you farewell. ASA C. MYERS, Supt.

The building is located at the south-west corner of the school grounds among fifty-six shade trees. There is a very good cement walk leading from Harrison street to the building. A beautiful privet hedge lines the walk. Although one of the oldest school buildings in the county it is not old from general appearance, but is fast growing out of date for lack of adequate recitation and study space. Every available place is being used. Three rooms in the basement are used for Domestic Science, Manual Training and Science. Five rooms are used on the first floor for the first six grades, the library and office. And four rooms on the second floor are used for the Gram- mar Grades and the High School. The time is not far distant when this building will either have to be re- placed by a new one or given over to the grades and a modern structure erected elsewhere for high school purposes.

When we climbed the historic stairs to the large Assembly Room it was with nervous and lagging steps. But when we beheld many other unfortunate "Freshies" who were from the surrounding townships and greener yet than we, we took courage and re- solved to stay. A meeting was held the first week of school and the following officers were elected: Leota Domigan, President; William Whitney, Vice-President; and Mary Brookins, Secretary. As the days rolled by we received our share of hazing, but nevertheless we proceeded to acquire laurels by diligent study. In September, 1919, when the Sophomore Class collected, it was to our sad disappointment to find that our number was reduced to seventeen. But we proceeded to make the best of the affair and elected William Whitney, President; Walter Carpenter, Vice-President, and Sterling Beaver, Secre- tary and Treasurer. The crowning event of the year was the reception we gave the Freshmen in the basement of our school building. It was a great success and it has been a custom since then for the Sophomore Class to give a reception for the Freshmen. In our Junior year our number was reduced to fourteen, but they were the old stand-bys and we proceeded to elect Gerald Crowl, President; Ells- worth Meeker, Vice-President; Walter Carpenter, Secretary and Treasurer. We gave a class play at the K.P. Opera House in the latter part of April, which was a great success. During this year the President called a special meeting at which time our motto was changed to "Out of School Life into Life's School." The greatest of our achievements was the successful han- dling of the Junior-Senior banquet--a success from start to finish due to the natural ability of the Juniors. At an early meeting in the Senior Year, we bestowed upon Walter Car- penter the honorable office of President of the Senior Class, also elected Ells- worth Meeker, Vice-President, and William Whitney, Secretary and Treas- urer. The Senior Class is very well represented in all the Athletic Events and in the Literary Work. Our class rings are very artistic, and of our own designing, having our class colors gold and blue on the ring, which is something new. One of our last and most enjoyable events of the year was the Junior- Senior Banquet given in our honor and the Commencement in which but fourteen participated. This ends the history of the class of '22 and in passing from the confines of good old S.H.S. we pause to extend heartiest thanks to the Faculty and congratulations to the classes following us in the hope that they may attain loftier standards and ideals than we were able to attain. We are proud to say that it was in S.H.S. that we were prepared to cope with the problems of the world which we are to face. We turn our backs reluctantly on the High School where we are now numbered among the Alumni.

Description An account of the resource [page 17] [corresponds to page 15] THE OWL fifteen HISTORY OF CLASS 1923 In the year of 1919 we were introduced into S.H.S. with the proud title of Freshmen. We then believed that we had reached the heights of learning. But lo! Not long had we traveled the road of High School when we saw loom- ing up in our pathway a hugh mountain. The composition of the rugged por- tion of this mountain was hard studies, examinations, hazing rules, and the smooth and bright part was composed of athletics, parties, and all social fa- fairs. We were all struck dumb with horror, but at last we formed the con- clusion that we must work and strive for the summit. Slowly we began the ascent endeavoring to take a firm footing at every step in order that we would not fall back on dangerous grounds called low grades. In the beginning all worked diligently but as time swept on and on the mountain became more rugged, and some became careless and they took no care in choosing their footing and downward slid, not stopping at one step but sliding many. Some seemed to move on with an easy pace. The way seemed free from obstacles for them, while for others the way was more difficult and blocaded, but onward we struggled, sometimes slipping a step downward, this inspiring us to work and study harder for that set goal. The careless became more careless, indifferent, discouraged, and weary of heart, and looking up they could see moving forms of the others disappear- ing far in the distance of high grades. Many times we were saved from hard and bruising falls by a winding root or firm shrub projecting from out the side of the cliff or by a ray of light thrown out by our instructors into our dark and bewildered minds brighten- ing the shadows there. At the end of many months of striving we came to our final struggle, which was to determine whether we were strong enough to reach the first ledge and be termed Sophomores or remain below. But to our joy a number of seventeen stood the test and were classed as Sophomores. We were faint and weary with the struggle which we had maintained, but here upon the ledge we were to remain for a brief length of time called vacation. Here we inhaled the pure and invigorating air which strengthened our bodies and minds for another struggle. Soon we started on with light hearts all pushing toward the same goal, which was to gain Junior rank. Onward and upward we strove. This ascent was not as steep as the preceding one but we kept working, working from daylight until dark. Often as we passed along we saw the signs "Do not trespass" which were the laws layed down by our experienced instructors. These warnings were excellent ones and bade us beware, for if we broke through into these grounds we were justly punished. Quickly the time sped onward and soon we all safely mounted the second ledge together, where we made a stop for a brief period of time. From this second ledge we see very distinctly the top and how light our hearts become when we think of the time when we will stand on the highest point of the mountain and smile as we think we have gained it at last. But let me not for a moment impress upon your mind that our school life has been all trials and hardships for much time have we had for our enjoy- ments, which partly was spent for athletics and we are proud to be able to say that one of our girl classmates received the highest honors ever presented to any girl in the county. We are also proud of the fact that one of our boys received a medal for a worthy feat. We have also indulged in literary work, parties and all kinds of funmaking. Now we start on again for the last ledge called Seniors, we are putting forth every effort as we sincerely believe that it will not be long until we have reached the long sought for goal.

Our band numbered just forty-three, A worthwhile number don't you see? We battled and struggled amid the blast, Striving always to be ahead in our class. Though often times we failed to succeed It stirred us on to a worthier deed. Some were discouraged, gave up in despair, While the rest struggled on with the greatest of care, And at the beginning of the following year Some were held back, we were sorry to hear. But onward and upward we worked with a will, Endeavoring with fervor our tasks to fulfill. At last came our test for the second year, But our work was successful in spite of our fear. But now happy Juniors, we, you will find; And because of our conduct we are sometimes behind, But with better endeavor we resolve now to strive To be dignified Seniors, our hope and our pride.

There were thirty-five of us and all were a little shy and silently took the jokes which were thrust at us by the upper classmen. The first thing of any importance was the Welcome Party given us by the Sopho- more. We were initiated at that party and when we returned home nearly every one was thinking "Some one is always taking the joy out of life," but that thought was never spoken. Several members of the class were on the Girls Basketball Team and two or three were on the Track Team. All were in great fear of the examinations but when they were over most of us passed to the dignified rank of Sophomores, although a few found it too hard to make a grade of 75% and remained in the Freshman Class. In September, 1921, twenty-eight again made their appearance at S.H.S. but now we were Sophomores and no longer feared the taunts of the other classes. We had the satisfaction of initiating the "Little Freshies" this year and held a party in their honor. Before Christmas the four classes had been selling Christmas Seals and the "Freshies" sold more than we did, so to satisfy them, we, together with the Seniors, gave a party at the schoolhouse in honor of the Juniors and Freshmen. When the time to return home came all were loath to go but when we did the vote that we had had a good time was unanimous. At the beginning of the second semester some of us attempted Geometry, but goodness! Our smiles faded from our faces and perplexing looks began to take their place. But we are all striving, ever striving to reach our goal and become Juniors. This is our history as Freshmen and Sophomores, but as Juniors and Seniors we expect to become more brilliant and to wear even wiser looks than we do now and we shall always have with us our motto "Hard work brings Success." MARGARET BARTON, '24 SOPHOMORE CLASS POEM One time I got to thinking of the way we Sophomores have spent our time, On the humdrum work of studying, and the tasks that never end. So I counted up the minutes, and the answer made me blink; I found we spent one hour in five merely trying to think. And so we got to hating the dull things we had to do, School doesn't seem worth a snap, with the Sophomores so blue, For we would stand there working problems, in a mood as black as ink, Till teacher called the class to order, just merely trying to think. And then as we sat thinking we could look away so far, Passed the meadows to the woodland, where the red wood lilies are, And in fancy we could wander down the blossom bordered stream, And our hated tasks we finished, when we came back from our dream. And now it isn't drudging, and the reason is, we think, That the Sophomores have discovered the importance of ink. And now we hardly ever think, for we write things with a smile, And take time each day to dream, a little dream once in awhile.

We entered the High School on Sept. 5, 1921, greeted by the happy cheers and jibes of the upper classmen and our friends-to-be. All started out to have a good time, thinking it was a joke to drop from nine subjects to four. It did not take long however, for most of us to realize our mistake and start to work with the resolve to make good. After three weeks of hard study the Sophomores gave an initiation party in our honor. It was held in the basement of the School Building and every one turned out to have a good time, also to enjoy the refreshments. Every one was then properly and some painfully initiated. Then we were really and truly Freshmen and Oh, what a "grand and glorious feel" it was. As we were then Freshmen proper a meeting was held to organize the class and elect officers, and choose our class colors. Ralph Piper was elected President; Bunice Vermillion, Vice-President; Helen Morris, Secretary, and Kenneth Roof, Treasurer, with Raymond Jennings, Sergeant-at-Arms. A vote was then taken on the class colors and purple and gold were chosen. Gold the conquering hue of the sun and purple to represent royalty. What a grand thing it would be if the forty that started in as Freshmen and chose those colors to represent them through their high school course, could graduate under them in the Spring of '25 and know that they had won a great victory. They would then enter upon the broad plain of life with those inspiring colors ever before their eyes as a guide, and a new resolution to win the greater battle before them, even as they had won that other battle which had started in the Assembly Room of the Sunbury High School on Sept. 5th, 1921. MILDRED LAMON, '25 FRESHMAN CLASS POEM 'Twas in the Fall of 'twenty-one, As a Freshman class they had just begun, They came to old S. H. S. and they Will be remembered for many a day. They entered school some forty strong, and showed the Sophomores that they were wrong In thinking Freshmen were all green And never should be heard nor seen. And in the classroom it was found, As well as on the athletic ground, That Freshmen were the ones to shine, And take the honors every time. Though Freshmen come and Freshmen go, The time will never come, I know, When you will find a class more alive Than the famous class of 'twenty-five.

Chorus: Joyous and ever loyal, Let us boost for our "Old High," Let ev'ry heart sing, Let ev'ry voice ring, There's no time to grieve or sigh; It's ever onward, our course pursuing, May defeat ne'er our ardor cool, But, united, we will boost for her, Our Old High School. Honors she has taken, On the track and with the ball, May she always rank the highest, May her colors never fail; There's no other that can match her, When her team is on the field, Her boys the fleetest, her girls the sweetest, Then here's a cheer for her, for her who ne'er will yield.

We have endeavored to extend its contents to our present school year eliminating all that was possible concerning activities previous to that time. As we are all human we are subject to mistakes. But by the efficient labor of the Staff, we strove to free our Annual from all mistakes. We feel that our school is giving you an edition equal to that of much larger schools and one which you cannot call cheap. We hope that in future years many Editions will be added to the present ones and that each one will find itself farther advanced than the latter. ATHLETICS Athletics in Sunbury High, the year of 1922, show a marked success over those of the past few years. We had one of the best basketball quintettes ever produced by our school, and one which deserves much credit. One of its members received the gold medal at the O.W.U. State Tournament for the highest scoring guard from villages with a population from 500 to 1500. We are also able to place a real baseball team on the field, one which will bring honor in future years, as it is composed of seven first year men. Our girls were able to participate in the County Championship basket- ball game. They also brought home the honors from the track meet last spring. One member of the squad won three events which was sufficient to obtain a gold medal. Athletics have been and will be beneficial to our school. It has taken the place of Physical Training. It has aroused our spirit to the highest point and has helped to bring honor to Sunbury and Community. MUSIC A High School Glee Club and a High School Orchestra were organized. Mr. Neilson acted as director of both organizations.

There is no doubt that the musical organizations of the year are the best in the history of the Sunbury High School. LITERARY SOCIETIES' ACTIVITIES This school-year has witnessed increased interest and activity in both Athenian and Philomathean Literary Societies. Several evening programs have been given at the school and a contest between the two societies given at K. of P. Hall was enthusiastically received by old members of the societies, as well as by the public in general. The support given the officers of the or- ganization by the pupils has been quite satisfactory. Education is to fit one to take his place in the world. Knowledge is val- uable only when translated into action. The society work gives training in expression, and opportunity for application of knowledge gained in class- room work. The only adverse criticisms we have to make of the year's work is that from a literary standpoint the programs given at the school were of a light nature. The programs should not necessarily be funerals, but their purpose should be instructive rather than entertaining. A thought was expressed in each society this year, that is worth re- membering this year and possibly the next: Keep on improving, but re- member there is always room for more improvement. The benefit you receive from your society is equal to the effort you put into it. PAUL MILLER, '22 THE LITERARY One of the rules Ohio hands down to her first-class high schools is, that they shall have a library in the school which contains reference on the various subjects taught. We are glad to say that the past four years have each seen some im- provement made in our library. The class of '17 presented the school with two sectional bookcases, which met the approval of the school inspector and saved our school from loss of charter. Last fall the library was moved to the lower floor into the room formerly used by the Superintendent. Since then Miss Jeffrey, with the assistance of two boys in the school, has succeeded in indexing the three hundred and fifty books under the duo-decimal system. The Encyclopedia which had been in the school for some time was get- ting out of date, and the new Encyclopedia, the gift of the Class of '21, made a great addition to the library. Current news and literature are provided this year by the Ohio State Journal, Atlantic Monthly, American Magazine, Scientific Review and Amer- ican Boy. Next year should see some improvement in the care of magazines. It is progress like this that keeps Sunbury on top!

Substitution was made necessary on our negative team on account of sickness. Although meeting a number of reverses they labored diligently on. The same thing can be said of our negative team and of the team at Berlin in regard to the preparing and delivery of their speeches as has been said of the teams mentioned before. The Sunbury team seemed to have the better arguments but lacked the necessary punch to put them across due to their short period of training, while Miss Stevens of Berlin won the debate for her school in her last rebuttal speech, due to her effective style.

At a glance one could tell it was a home where poverty prevailed, yet there was not a dry leaf or broken stick to mar the tidiness of the miniature lawn. This was the home of John Henderson, his wife and twin children, Jimmie and Jennie, who were now ten years of age. At six o'clock a tall man of apparently fifty years, opened the door of this little house and with a heavy step entered. Discouragement was apparent by the weariness of his eyes and in the stoop of his shoulders; but his eyes brightened somewhat as he caught sight of the curly heads of the twins, who, as they saw him, sprang up from their play with the joyful cry of "Daddy" and receiving in turn a hug and a kiss. "Any success, John?" called the gentle voice of his wife, from the kitch- en where she was preparing their meager dinner. "No," the discouraged look was in his eyes again, "and Clara I've about given up hope of ever getting a position. It seems there are no vacant places for salesmen. I'm sure I don't know how we are going to meet the rent next week." "There, dear, you are just tired. Things will look better in a few days. See, I've got warm biscuits for dinner." Mrs. Henderson spoke with a voice that was lighter than her heart. "And, oh, Daddy," spoke up Jennie's voice excitedly, "Teacher says Jim- mie and I must each have two new books. Won't that be nice?" but she did not know that her innocent words caused her father to groan inwardly, and her mother's heart to sink. After the children were in their little beds and peacefully sleeping, the father and mother held a consultation. How could they meet the rent and pay for the children's books? They were of too proud and fine a nature to allow Jimmie and Jennie to be without the necessities of the school life; and they knew the landlord would willingly turn them out if the rent was not paid. At last Mrs. Henderson said-- "Well, we can sell my prize quilt for at least thirty-five dollars. That will pay the rent for this month and leave ten dollars for books and clothing for the children. By next month business will surely pick up." "I certainly hope so. But wait until Monday and if I do not find anything by that time, then I'm afraid that altho I am reluctant to do it we shall have to sell the quilt. If this should be necessary we shall have to replace it with another and as I saw one advertised among the unclaimed articles at the Custom House perhaps we can buy that at a low price." Upon this decision they were agreed, and so on Saturday, as Mr. Hen- derson was still unemployed, his wife got out her quilt and with a sad heart, brushed and aired it, bringing out the lights of its richly embroidered colors. It was indeed a beautiful thing and was famous for the prizes that had been awarded it; but to Mrs. Henderson it carried thoughts of its maker, her old mother. The wonderful quilt had not been advertised long, before Mr. Simpson, the wealthiest man in town bought it as a wedding present for his niece. He was a kind old gentleman, and knowing the financial circumstances of the Hendersons, he at once offered them fifty dollars for it. With great thank- fulness Mrs. Henderson accepted, thinking that surely her cup of blessings was overflowing. But alas! her happiness was to be shortlived. exclaimed, She was preparing lunch for just herself and the children as Mr. Hender- son had gone to the auction, when Jimmie, who was standing near the window Title A name given to the resource The Owl, Vol. II, 1922 (p.30) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/f2d1c9467f286ed6d8e04f8c020b18a0.jpg 890c16af059be5d41f0714d1df0f5586 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Who do you suppose it is?" As Mrs. Henderson glanced out of the window she noticed that the men were looking in the direction of her house anxiously but thinking nothing of it she resumed her work. Suddenly Jennie cried, "Mother! Mother! It's our Daddy and he is so white!" Mrs. Henderson grasped the back of a chair for support. Yes, the men were stopping at the gate and there was no need questioning to whom that pallid face belonged. Stumbling she groped her way to the door with the chil- dren following her, crying hysterically. But before answering the hesitating knock she turned to the children and said in a voice that she struggled to keep calm, "Listen children, remember if something has happened to Daddy, you are Mother's little helpers." Almost instantly they dried their tears and by this assurance of their aid she regained her composure somewhat, then opened the door. It seemed that host of weeping women and grave-faced men swarmed around that still form. The one, who seemed to be the spokesman, stepped forward a trifle and coughed twice before he said stammeringly, "I'm very sorry to have to tell you but--but there--there's something happened. It's his heart, and--and--" "Go on," she whispered hoarsely. "He's dead, ma'am." Oh, what grief and trouble those words have the power to bring about! To Mrs. Henderson they brought the commencement of many years of strug- gle for the livelihood of herself and children. Poverty had not been so hard to bear when the two had borne it together, but she could not as yet trouble the merry hearts of the children with her worries. But young as they were they realized why her eyes were troubled and her face so often careworn, and they strove to make her life a little happier each day. They longed for an educa- tion and by working in the summers and on holidays, the twins were able to go regularly to the village school. Now we shall turn over the chapters of the lives of the three till seven years from the day of the unexpected death of Mr. Henderson. The quilt that he had bought just an hour before his death, had been brought in unnoticed by a neighbor and was kept by the widow as something sacred. It was by no means beautiful, but at the sight of it on this day, Mrs. Henderson's eyes filled with tears. She was replacing it gently in the box when a young girl of seventeen entered the room and crossed to where her mother was standing. She laid her arm across the silent woman's shoulders and touched the quilt reverently and as she did so a sharp rustle of paper at- tracted her attention. They looked at each other wonderingly. "Why, Mother, there is a paper inside! What do you suppose it is? And Look! The quilt seems to have been slit and loosely sewed up. Oh, let's investigate!" "Now Jennie you mustn't expect to find a package of love letters or anything so romantic," smiled her mother teasingly, "But to satisfy our curiosity I suppose we shall have to look. Get the scissors, dear." Very much excited Jennie started to reopen the slit in the quilt. She hoped it would contain something that would lead to an adventure! Or if it was money, both she and Jimmie could graduate at the same time, she hoped it would be so, for Jimmie had generously given up the thought of graduating at the same time as his sister, knowing that they could not afford it. So, eagerly she pulled out the envelope that was within and tore it open. Then she gave a little cry of disappointment, "Oh, Mother, it is nothing but some kind of an old map. Oh why couldn't it have been something worth while?" "Perhaps it is, dear, let me see it," and carefully scanning the paper Mrs. Henderson saw on the reverse side these closely written words.

I have in my possession about ten thousand dollars in gold, silver, and jewels and it is buried under a block in my cellar. The block can be lifted out of position by a sidewise pull on the iron ring that is attached to it. My hut is deep in the woods known as Giant Forest. Perhaps it will be hard to find, but don't be discouraged for the goal is worth working for. I am too feeble to write more, buy may it be that this wealth will bring more happiness and be more useful to you than to me.--Simon La Mon. Even Mrs. Henderson could not contain her excitement. If this were true and they could find the treasure, it would mean no more economizing for the dire necessities of life. But she was silent until evening when Jimmie, now a handsome stalwart youth, could be with them to hear the circumstances. At last with the dishes cleared away the lamps lighted she read the scribbled note to the attentive twins. Jimmie's eyes shown like stars as he welcomed this opportunity for adventure, and Jennie's heart sang as she pictured her mother no longer a drudge, and herself wearing pretty clothes. For what young girl doesn't like to be well dressed? "Why Mother, I saw that cabin and became quite good friends with the old man while picking blackberries several years ago. I am sure I can find the place again, will you let me try?" asked Jimmie eagerly. "And can I go with him?" chimed in Jennie. "Why, yes, you may both go, altho it will not be very safe to enter Giant Forest without a guide. Don't you suppose you had better get Indian Joe to help you?" "He's the very one, Mother! I'm sure he'll help us. I'll run over and see him now." So saying Jimmie left the house. Arriving at the hut where the old guide lived, Jimmie quickly explained his mission. At the conclusion Joe gave his characteristic grunt, "Ugh! Me know old white man and know way to his wigwam. Me lead you and good sister to it. Me like to return good deed for good deed. When do we start?" "Sis and I will be here as early as possible tomorrow morning. Thanks Joe, you're a real friend." Who would not dream of great things if such an opportunity were thrown in their way? So it was with the twins, and they could hardly wait for morning to come. When the first gray streaks had begun to show in the east they were up and off to Indian Joe's hut, dressed in old clothes and carrying a day's provisions; but they were not ahead of the old hunter for he was also prepared, having whittled out three stout sticks to help them over the rough places and as they started to leave he handed Jimmie a light gun, the duplicate of the one he carried himself. The great woods was only two miles out of town, but strangely enough the lonely in habitant had been known by a very few, perhaps because he depended on game and fish for his food and very rarely any one visited the Giant Forest for fear of becoming lost. But with Indian Joe as a guide the twins were safe for he had the power of guidance habitual to his tribe. Easily he found the faint trace of a foot-path that lead to the old cabin, and Jimmie and Jennie must be forgiven for not hearing the joyous song of the birds or noting so many of Nature's works as they usually did, for they were eagerly looking forward to getting a glimpse of the Treasure Hut. Ah, there it was! Jimmie broke into a run and had just reached the sagging door when a call of"Help!" sounded down the trail. He glanced around quickly. Where was Jennie? "What has become of Jennie, Joe?" he asked excitedly. "Me do not know. Me hear good sister call. We must search," so saying he retraced his steps, with Jimmie at his heels. "Jennie, Jennie!" he kept calling, "Answer me. It's Jim." Faintly a voice floated down the path to them, "Here I am in this old well, just down the path a little farther. I stumbled when I started to run." When they came upon her, she was standing upright in a cavity about seven feet deep. In answer to their anxious inquiries she denied that she was hurt; and so they assisted her out by the aid of their sticks and progressed to the hut, this time without mishap. It was a ram-shackle old place and the musty odor was repugnant. But they kept on and entered the cellar. Piles of dried herbs which had been placed there apparently by design were lying here and there and a few pieces of rickety home-made furniture were placed helter-skelter. Eagerly all these were pushed aside as they hunted for the block. But strain their eyes as they would, they could see nothing of the tell-tale iron ring. Suddenly Jennie stumbled and fell heavily to the floor and as Jimmie ran to assist her, he shouted, "Look Jennie! Look Joe! We have found the treasure! Jennie has caught her foot on the camouflaged iron ring and in doing so has uncovered the treasure. Hurrah! Hurrah!" "Hurrah!" echoed Jennie, "now we Hendersons and Indian Joe will live just as in story books, 'happy every after.'"

In sugar-making time. The memory of the little tasks That Dad told us to do, Just fills my soul with longings And thrills me thru and thru; The buckets first were scalded out Then placed beside the trees, And all the time the dear old camp Just ringing with our glees. And then we laid the old arch up Then well do I remember, And took our brace and bit When the sap was gathered in, And started out to tap the trees, How we filled the pans and built the fires And nearly had a fit And worked with lots of vim. To see the sap come spurting out, Nor did we mind the smoke and steam Oh: say but it was fine Which made us cry and cough, To see that sap just run a stream For joy was ours when Dad said; In sugar-making time. "Boys, Its time to syrup off." Twas then we'd use our wooden spoons To sample it you know, And then we'd take the syrup sweet And to the house we'd go, Then mother dear with skill and vim, That no one ere surpasses, Would clarify it on the stove And we would have molasses. Then we'd ask Ma to sugar off, But all these things have passed away. Which she'd always let us do Our Dad, the camp, and all, And besides she'd make us taffy, And nothing but the memories, And we'd be sweetness thru and thru; Which we often now recall, The doctor then would make a call, Come flocking back to cheer us But we would lay supine, And fill your soul and mine Just thinking of the fun we'd had With the happy days we spent with Dad In sugar-making time.

Goughnour, Coach Bottom row, from left to right--Ralph Clark, Captain; Robert Allison, Raymond Jennings, Melton Rogers, Gerald Crowl, Craig Hicks No one can say that the 1921-22 basketball season was not a success. True, there are those who think that anything which does not come close to the thousand per cent mark is not worth of praise. Our boys were good losers as well as good winners. They played a clean game and never gave up until the final whistle. They went into the game with a spirit that "you must play even better than you know how to play, never quit for one second but play yourself to a standstill,--remember that if you are hurt there is another just as good and anxious to take your place." The individuals on the team played exceptionally well. The center was accurate, for the ball came to the guards or forwards with the greatest regu- larity. Our forwards were unselfish and were exceedingly good in getting the ball by the opponent's guards. It was not so with our opponent's for- wards as they found it a hard task to get by our guards. We closed our season of 1921-22 by playing in the State Tournament at Delaware, Ohio. The first team we drew was Verona, a team that had not lost a game until we broke their record by a score of fifteen to twelve. We lost our second game to N. Lewisburg but all voted that we had a good time in Delaware and that every year would be a success if we would play as good as we did this year. CAPT.

This fast and hard fighting team re- mains intact for the coming season with the exception of one guard, Leota Domigan, by graduation. Therefore the hopes are high for bringing the cup to Sunbury next year. This team was coached by Miss Huston and played under the leadership of Captain Edna A'Neal.

Hardly had the snow disappeared from the ground until the crack of the bat and the spat of the ball was heard all over the lot. Any doubt about the possibilities of a team soon vanished when the can- didates got into action, with a good man for each position and other good ones to spare, a team was formed. Galena was first to try out the strength of our organization and lost 2-0, when rain stopped the game at the end of the fifth inning. Bad weather has prevented constant practice and play. However, we have between showers again defeated Galena and Orange High Schools and twice a picked local nine. Our next trip was made on April 28th to Centerburg where their high school team gave us our first defeat. The team played good ball, but with cold weather, the break was against us. We have hopes for better luck for the remainder of our schedule with Ashley, Hyattsville, and again with Centerburg. The spring baseball season is too short to satisfy the desire for the game. This year a movement has been started to give the boys more baseball and to break the monotony of the country boy's summer life by having the County High Schools play summer ball. This will give the boys the Saturday half holiday as enjoyed by the city worker. The warm weather has also awakened the spirit of the trackmen. Every day these fellows may be seen running and jumping, getting into shape for the County Meet at Delaware on May 12th. There is no branch of school sport which takes the consistent training required to trackmen and much praise and comment are due those who so faithfully go on with this daily grind in order to be fit for the one day's sport. Track, unlike most other sports, is unlimited in the number who may de- rive benefit from it. Any one may get out alone or in small groups and train for a few minutes each day. Other sports require a team and real training can be carried on only when the entire team is present. The track game is fundamentally an individual contest and teaches a person to rely entirely upon himself. Our team made a creditable showing at Ashley May 3rd and expect to give a good account of themselves at the County Meet. Not only do the boys awaken to the call of spring but the girls have taken on the spirit of the "Athletic Maid" and are training for girls' events in the County Meet. Some rare ability has been shown by the girls on the field and track. This is commendable and more girls should avail themselves of the opportunity to develop a sound body by indulging in systematic physical training. There would be less loss of time through illness if parents would encourage their daughters to engage in this healthful school sport. Too often we can see only the winning side of Athletics and overlook the personal benefit to be derived from the games. We say there is no use in try- ing because so and so can do that so much better than I. Not only do we gain physically from the training but we learn to lose. I do not mean to be a good loser to the point that we lose without effort. But we learn to go down fight- ing and that spirit often wins even in the face of defeat.

Everyone realizes that it is necessary that all girls should know how to sew and cook. In high school some subjects are taught which make us wonder if they will be of any use to us in the future while it is easily seen of what use Domestic Science will be. It is possible for several girls, never before interested in sewing or cooking, to become interested when working together as a class. This year the study was divided into two parts. The first semester sewing was taught and the second semester cooking. A class of eighteen girls worked individually on sewing projects and other forms of Domestic Art, such as; basketry and embroidery work, the first semester. At the end of the semester a display of their sewing was given and tea was served to the ladies who attended. It was even surprising to the girls themselves to notice their own advancement from such articles as handkerchiefs, to dresses, lovely embroidered cushions and stand scarfs. At the beginning of the second semester the girls were presented with three laboratory tables made by the Manual Training Class. After much begging on the boys' part and extra work for the girls, the Domestic Science class entertained the Manual Training boys and the Faculty of the school at a luncheon one noon. In honor of the girls' and boys' basketball squads, they also entertained one evening with a dinner. There were about twenty-five present. The class of the second semester consisted of fourteen girls. They were divided into groups of two to work. Each girl had a note book, in which she kept a record of experiments and all of the recipes. They, each, took their turn with the cleaning of the cupboards, washing dishes, scrubbing the floor, and learning to be neat and clean with the kitchen, as well as the cooking.

Sunbury High School keeps abreast the progress in educational matters, and during the past year manual training has been given as a regular feature of the course. The course was opened to the three upper classes and about fifteen boys availed themselves of the training. The first six weeks were spent in study- ing the care and use of tools. The balance of the year was devoted to mak- ing equipment for the school, and improvements about the building. The more important jobs being the construction of tables for the Domestic Science Department and the ceiling of their room, and the refinishing of the initial-cut desks of the Junior room. The last eight weeks opportunity was given the boys to make some use- ful article on their own initiative. The result was a varied collection of piano benches, book cases, magazine racks, foot rests, candle adapters, and jardiniere stands. If more space were provided in a new school building, it would be pos- sible to extend this course so as to include leather and forge work. At present the small class we have taken all the space that can be given over to this work.

When the school year of 1921-22 started September Fifth we had an enrollment of forty-five wide awake boys and girls. Twenty-three in the first grade and twenty-two in the second grade. We knew very little of school life and took up the new work with much enthusiasm. Just now we have twenty-three boys and twenty-three girls. Each grade has twenty-three pupils. Our percentage of attendance has been very good this year, the boys' average has exceeded the girls' by a few points. We are a happy lot of children and feel as to efficiency we are equal to any primary room in the state. The Golden rule is taught at the beginning of the school year and each child tries to remember its lesson in their work and play. We begin our daily program with a cheery Good Morning from teacher to pupil and vice versa. This is followed by a period of twenty minutes for song and story telling. After this we begin our classes in reading, phonics work, number work, nature study, language, drawing, writing, paper cutting, gymnastics and elocution. We observe each holiday of the year with a special program and appreciate the many visitors we have, who show us by their coming that they are interested in the smaller children as well as the older ones. We extend a special invitation to each reader of the Owl to come and visit us. FIRST INTERMEDIATE ROOM "Keep on the Sunny Side" is our motto and so we are on the Sunny Side when Old Sol deems it wise to help us along, for we occupy the sunniest room allotted to the grades. The Primary pupils look in at the door to see the bright sunlight and like it so well, that as soon as they successfully complete the work required in the Second Grade, come in to enjoy the sunshine with us. Of course the dreary days are not so nice, but nevertheless our work goes on from day to day. Silent Reading has been emphasized the past year, and we like our new Silent Readers which have been placed in our room. The teaching of Drawing has proven one of the most interesting features of our work, and trust it may be continued in the years to follow. Elocution is also deserving of mention. Oh yes, we almost forgot tell you how many there are of us enjoying the sunshine. We started the school year with seventeen in the Third Grade and fifteen in the Fourth Grade, and at the present time have sixteen in the Third and fifteen in the Fourth. And now readers of the "Owl" if you wish to know more concerning our work, come and visit us in our room. FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADES We are glad to have the opportunity to tell you something of ourselves and our work. The Fifth and Sixth Grades have a total enrollment of forth-eight wide awake boys and girls. Seven pupils have neither been absent nor tardy during the entire school year. The work in the Fifth Grade is not only a continuation of the work done in the Fourth Grade, but in addition we take up the study of Geography. In the Sixth Grade, History is added to the branches taught in the Fifth Grade. Although Drawing was introduced into the school this year, we have enjoyed the beginner's lessons very much and hope we may have the privilege of continuing them through to the High School. Besides our regular Elocution lessons given every Thursday Morning by Miss Kidwell, we are doing some work in Rhetoricals. The two grades are divided in sections, each section taking part on the program given every Wednesday morning. Every boy and girl has had some part in this work. We like to work but we also enjoy our play. Baseball seems to be the favorite sport for both boys and girls and we think we have already won some laurels. We are trying to live clean, straight, and honest lives, and want to do our part in making the Sunbury School one of the best schools on the map. GRAMMAR SCHOOL On the 24th of February, 1922, the Sunbury Grammar School gave its annual public entertainment. This program consisted of two parts. The first being the play "A Patriotic Peanut Stand." The second part "The Indian Princess" an operetta. The pupils played their parts exceptionally well to a crowded house. The Sunbury Grammar School has shown its ability to do things as they have purchased a piano for their department also a sectional book-case well filled with good books. These have added much to the enjoyment of the pupils and teacher of the Sunbury Grammar School.

Description An account of the resource [page 50] [corresponds to page 48] forty-eight THE OWL OUR JANITOR [photo] All hail to our janitor! On November 11, 1918, Mr. Frank Duckworth took up his duties as janitor of the Sunbury Public Schools. Looking over the situation very carefully he found the work such as was necessary to enlist additional help, so he called in his wife. Together they have carefully labored until the present day. Owing to the interest they have taken in the school they had better be called guardians than janitors. We believe no school can speak more highly of their care-takers than we can of Mr. and Mrs. Duckworth. The teachers and all of the boys and girls have the highest regards for them. They can always see the things that need be done around the building and grounds and they do them. Everything is kept neat and clean and co-operation is without fail. We hope that they will stay with us a number of years. So altogether let us cheer them.
