2-Who said preachers lack humor ? Rev. Johnson proved they don't. Yes'n some of the naughty kids had to stay after school, 'n change their seats clear up in front. Girls lost to Li- gonier, but the boys, with the help of Bobby's rabbit foot, just reversed the score.


3-How we love our boys' team! They beat Fort Wayne to a pulp. But the


girls lost. (I've heard because of their rotten looking suits beside Fort Wayne's new ones.)


5-All the teachers decided they would make us work, so they assign twelve. page lessons.


6-Everyone wonders what "The Green Parrot" is.


9-The attendance officer spoke to us. Parents' day at school, and everyone had to be "nice." Rare exhibits in


her


made of


the gym. The boys came home with Ashley's scalp.


10-"The Green Parrot" came off.


12-Two wonders-Marian Link was al- lowed to stay in English; Ed Rainier was kicked out of English for no preparation.


13-Alice B .- "You know, I take a bath every night." Elsie G .- You mean to say you take a bath every night? Alice-"Sometimes."


11-Junior High gave "Polished Pebbles." What a fine bunch of singers we will soon have! Some regular Carusos and Mary Gardens.


15-Hurrah! We have a new yell.


Betsy, was that candy sugar?


16-Our "sweet boys" lost their first game, but no wonder! The girls only lost by one point. Oh, what we won't do to K-ville, there!


19-Beginning of the last week before Xmas vacation. Oh, Boy!


22-Went to Fort Wayne and got wiped up, but-animal crackers are good. Yum!


23-"Co-operate, "the teacher said, "It surely is a shame to have a teacher act up so, and then not share the blame."


25-Merry Xmas, Studes!


JANUARY


1-Happy New Year, Old Top!


2-The first school day of the New Year. Everybody enjoyed the old gravel pit but those who did not skate. Great sport!


3-We really were not ready to start to school again, but it seemed the best thing. You should hear the New Year resolutions-"I am going to work hard this year." Raspberries!


4-Having April showers, and the skat- ing has gone "ker flunny."


5-The "Y" was opened to women yes- terday, so today there were so many "stiff" girls at school. They swim 'n dive 'n everything.

10-"Who will be the new Chatterbox staff ?" is the topic of the day.


11-"Charlotte, what kind of a dog li- cense does your father buy for you?" That is what J. W. McIntyre wanted to know.


12-Llowell Bourn is editor-in-chief, Dale Thomas business manager, and Syl- via Brunkhart circulation manager.


13-Friday, the 13th, but a lucky day for the A. H. S. Had speeches in the morning from the girls, then a good talk by Rev. Bourns. The luckiest thing, though, was the beat- ing Garrett got. Girls' score was 16-8; boys' 28-1. Some scores!


16-Some more speeches from the teams.


Their knees just wouldn't be still. Queer, isn't it?


18-Grade cards! The last of the sem- ester, and what grades! A letter down in every grade for tardiness without excuse.


19-Enough snow for bob parties.


20-The Freshies had a bob party to Garrett. Auburn girls beat Ligonier, there, 8-7. Remember the onions, shoe polish and bug juice, girls ? Our boys won, 21-12, and at that played the second team the last half. Thirteen rahs for Auburn!


23-Alice B .- "He done everything him- self." Thrush (correcting English) -"He did-" A. B .- "He did not." 24-Br-r-r-r! it's cold! No bob parties for me!


25-Everybody bring a penny. What for? Wallop Angola! Feb. 27-28. 26-Annual staff picked.

roll on the bulletin board.


7-Some of the endearing words Johnny Mac uses in the Chemistry class: "Dumbbell," "ignoramus," "idiot," etc.


8-Not insinuating! ,Warren Mc .- "Why don't you give some of the girls topics?" Teacher-"I was try- ing to."


9-There are such witty people in the History club. They never make any breaks.


10-K-ville won. Girls' game was an- other tie, but the boys' game-


11-"Fill-in" games with Waterloo girls and St. Joe boys. Of course we beat those "small" towns. Tri Kappa cake walk.


13-The boys have decided to become nurses. A change for the good.


15-Our motto is "Push," as decided by the speakers.

This book has been published with the intention of giving a complete, accurate and interesting account of the activities of the Auburn High School during the past school year. It is not perfect. No one knows its defects better than we. But we offer no apologies. We are content to let the book stand on its own merits. We trust that our readers will overlook the faults, and find in his book only joy and pleasant memories of the work herein portrayed. And so, having done our best, we finish our work, for better or for worse. And now the Senior Class of 1922 takes its diplomas, and with mingled feelings of joy and regret, it leaves the A. H. S. forever.
