nh ! Yo wir;e and atudiouu ninth graders,

do you recall the first day you put your foot ac:i'oss the t:1reGht ld cf Tuentr-sixth anc.. O and faced t~e great flight of ste9s leading to t~1e off ice?

Those

ere the days when you

looked for room 400 down on the first floor.

Do

you remember the time in fift~ period English Class that Earl Rode started a book report three times and the class laughed so much that he had to give it up? And that very small boy with the the dark hair and olive complexion--who wore knee breeches; do you remember him?

Well, of course you do.

He

is the preaent J~hn Gregory who to~ers above the rest of his classmates. Those small seventh graders were ~ithout a leader or sponsor so after all acquaintaRces were made Miss Charlotte Anders n nas elec·ted sponsor with Allen Berk:-uan as class pres~dent the first se~ester, and Laurel Weaver, the second semester.

Everynne has gromi since last you s~w them. A whole summer has pili.!Sed and the::i- not only look bigger but feel it, too, since they are not the smallest ones in the school any more. Thia year was destined to be more eventful than the previnus one.

Out of the group chosen

to represent Twenty-sixth and O in the Armistice Day parade some were eighth graders.

With Mr.

Fr,lsom 1 s advice and assistance they finally learned to take the first step with the left foot when marching in a parade and quite creditably represented the school. Beginning in March, 1926 much time, patience, and hard work was put into the school operetta, "Daughters of Mohammed.ff

Numerous eighth grade

students helped to make it the signal success it was. \

The May festival took place on our omi school grounds instead of at the high school as in prePage eight

vious years.

Many of the present ninth graders

took part in the fete. Perhaps the greatest individual honor of the year came to Canascia Duncan who won second place in the state by her Safety First Essay. By election Aubert Robertson was president the first semester and Le is Fo els, the last semester with Hiss Charlotte Anderson as sponsor. Another year has passed and the good times shall always be remembered and the quarrels are all forgiven and moat of them forgotten. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

They have finally reached their goal and are now the ones to set the example for the underclassmen just as the other ninth graders have done before them. Much hard work was required of these new ninth graders and much more dignity - (some acquired the dignity with ease, others with much hard work, and others-.) Many pupils were proud of publishing the fact that they ~ok algebra and Latin but after

the report cards ca.~e out-well--of course, everyone has a right to chanGe his nind. T:10

nintr. graders were ucll represented

in various pxo:~rru:1s of the year especially Girls' Dny and Boys' Day.

Another activity of the year

was the lla.y festival held &y 4th.

The enter-

tninnent beGan with the Daisy Chain after which Maida of Honor were sent t11:rough the church to find the May Queen, lla.ybelle Lundeen, and lead her to the throne where she was crowned by the Ma.id of Honor, Rulth Rotheram.

Seventh, eighth

and ninth grade served to entertain the May Queen. Another success of the year was "the evening of pla.ys," directed by Mias Moore, t:1e drar.10.tic teacher.

This t~ok place t~e evening, of May as

at the high school. How nany pupils of Twenty-sixth and 0 believe in old superstitions, such as the rabbit's left hind foot, black oats, broken lcoking glasses, horse shoes, and•

·-Friday the thirteenth-----?

Well of course we had to disillusion people but ----the operetta,

Tulip Tine," took place on

the aforeoentioned date o.nd as a great success.

Our first meeting was held on Tuesday, at the new Kruce Hotel.

It was designed and built by the

owner, no other than Oscar Kruce.

He was the same

happy, genial, and democratic fellow as when we knew

him in Lincoln. At this meeting, chairoan Leo Ayres (yes, the actor) introduced to the club some new merabers. uNational Success Club members, I wish to make it possible for you to get acquainted with our new members, immediately.

I believe the easiest way to

go about this is to have each one rise and tell us on what qualifications he has entered this club. shall call on Yr. D. Griffith first.

"Mr. Chairman and fellow mecbers:-I entered this club as the discoverer of 'Canned Vitamines. 1

I am the president of the firm that manufactures this product."

"Thank you Ur. Griffith.

you, Miss Stroh?" "I was given admittance to the National Success Club while playing the part· of 'Irma' in Alvin Jaderlund 1 s great success, 'Pink Geraniums.•

he is a very learned man~

Even the \tay he is

dressed; the au.re, firm step with w~icb he wa1ks; and above all the clear, precise and dignified tone in which he speaks denotes his rank in the world. u11r, Chairman, and menbera---the first number

on the program will be a group of selections by the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Hies Marjorie Young.

I might mention

I

that this orchestra is the only of the first five in the United States, which has a conductress at the 'Baton." During these numbers I sat and watched Miss Young very closely.

She had that same easy but

sure way about her that she had when she used to

play for ua at Twenty-sixth and o. When they were through I hardly knew it.

They

finished in the softest pianissimo I have ever heard, although there were one hundred-eighteen players in the orchestra nAh l superb l

The next number will be a group

of V?cal solos, given by Madam Compton, Metropolitan

Opera Star; accompanied at the piano by Miss Helen

Why should I try to dezcribe lladarn Coopton 1 s voice?

You have heard her on numerous occasions,

I dare say.

All I need say, is that she sang as only

Ma.dar!l Compton can sing.

Following this we enjoyed a ballet from Rains, New York, with Miss Katherine Lindsyz as soloist. Yes, Chick's in the theater business.

Rains is as

known today as Keitha was twenty years ago.

Charles

is the director of the newly organized, but immediately successful Noel-Noel Follies.

By calling Miss Lindsyz back we had the pleasure of seeing her "step off" the newly invented Detroit Scramble.

Did she step it off?

I 1 11 say she did. _

By the way, through talking to my old friend, Hr. Woolfolk, I found out he was a successful printer in Atlanta, Georgia.

Still printing booster cards for

nominees for president and so forth, Bob? The next number was a group of readings by Miss Maybelle Lundeen, several of

hich were written by

her friend Mias Yaxine Moore.

Great credit is due

both the a thor and the performer. To conclude the prograr.i we again enjoyed the Phil~delphia Orchestra..

Oh Boy i { as we used to

say) I could listen to then all daye The meeting was adjourned, but no one left~

I drifted around talking to old friends until I learned the latest attaillLlents of the meobers who were not present. There is Robert llcCandless, a prominent map maker of Shicago; Jane McLaughlin, manager of the World 1 s Travel Tours; Glenn Boesiger contractor of Lincoln, St. Louis, St. Paul and Kansas City; and George Wikoff, fa.Llous comedian

ith Paramount

Picture Corporation.

An invitation to join our club was issued at our last meeting to Beryl Hower of Boston,. She is an accooplished artist, located in Paris at the present time.

By next meeting we hope to have her

as a life member of the ?rational S1-1.c.rness Club.

Yes, the old school has pxo~ucad sooe very successful men and wooen.

Even though

We look back upon those

years with mingled feelings of pleasure and ragret--pleasu.xe e.t the I!ta.n:r new o.cqll<."'..intB.L'"lCes, the happy hours spent here, &..,_d tho cany useful thi

School Colors When I hear "Variety is the spice of life," I often think then the very opp -)site must be the leaven of life.

True it is 1 that

variety makes our lives more tasty, but an object continually before us will do more to leaven our thoughts and actions than any other t,ne thing.

That is what the flag of the United States is.

It is an object continually before us 9

causing us to think of our country.

What

ould

the flag mean to us if it were not for the beautiful thought of freedoo and righteousness and deoocracy back of it?

It is the same wit~ school colors.

They

are merely symbols of the p~i:-i ~ of the school. The colors would mean nothing at all if they did not continually remind us of the nanifold opportunities afforded us by the yresent day school system. At Twenty-sixth a.~d O the colors representing equali'ty to all; responsibility eq'll!llly di-

These colors are dis-

played on every possible occasion. To continue the placing of these colors before the students, they are used as the color scheme on the Twenty-sixth and O annual publication, "The Junior Journal."

uho o.re not before the public eye, and yet are really heroines. The foregoing exru::ples only show that the general public does not have to lmo~ about the act to □n.ke the doex a hero.

These exanples are

only a few to show that n. person helping another in private life and secluded froc the public is just as nuch a hero as the one that flags before the gra.."ldsta..Y"td. The act of rescuing a drowning person is a bright spot for days; bu~ before l~ng it ~a.dually dies down; the struggle of one for another in private life lives forever. To sun it up t~en; a hero nust be willing to give his tine; energy, resources, and even life to help a.not~er.

If the net is spectac-

ular accidently, we night say~ it is a very brave one; if it is spectacula.r intentionally on the part of the doer, he is not, absolutely not, a hero.

It is the underlying principal

and not the act itself, that deternines whet~er or not the person is a hero.

Religloa Religion is any system of faith or worship. li is one of the nighty forces of the world, a force that no hunan can destroy, a.nd one which goes through the ages a...~d generations being persecuted, scoffed at, ridiculed, and yet it survives and grows~ Plutarch says, "If we travers the world, it is possible to find cities without walls, without letters, without kings, _without co~n, without schools and theaters; but a. city without a. teople, or that p:r;a.ct i _c eth not worship, prayer, and the like, no one ever saw." So ~ne can easily s~e that no matter how small or obscure a village r.m.y seen, it will always have sone particular systen of faith or worship. Religion ofte:i adds a sense of divine approval to conscience.

It thus gives a feeling, that

law or public opinion can never give.

Tb.at

is shown in nu:r s~ying, "God sees what I do, and knows what I think even if oen do not."

Page ~hirty-tllree


,·,.


Religion, therefore, strikes deeper a.~d is nore personal and searching than nest other for~s of social control.

Then, too, there is

a sense of great power behind it.

It oakes us

feel t:u:,,,t God, the all powerful, is on the side of "rigt.t , ·n a.:."1.d tl1at sooner or later evil will be conquered. So, although it sonetioes seoos a ninor factor in our social cu.stone and opinions, it really plays a ~oat significant part in our lives.
