jforetuorb

The ten years of success that lie back of the U. F. H. IS. at Wilmot and its present flourishing condition is surety for the future greatness of this school.
The service it has

rend~red

to those who sought its assistance by the more efficient pre-

parations for life and by the upward trend given to their lives, should win for it the heartiest
co-operation and the fullest support of a]] who live within its territory and from others who
are reasonably accessible to it.
No one who is eligible to membership and within reach of this institution should fail to
avail himself of the opportunity here offered for developing his powers, thereby gaining preparation for more efficient service to himself and to the community.
In pursuit of an education, the high schoo I takes one to the place where the road branches
to the several professions and to the different lines of business life.

Entrance to all these branch

roads is denied to all who have not a high school education or its equivalent.
A high school diploma is a pass that gains ready admission for its holder to any one or all
of them.
The enrollment in this school should reach one hundred or more within the next few years.

GEO. BASSETT, Treasurer

Much of the progress in educational work has been due to the
efforts and interest manifest by the Board of Education. Two of the
board members, Mr. Schenning and Mr. Bassett, are farmers while Mr.
Shotliff is postmaster of the village ofWilmot.
The members of the faculty together with the students of the
high school wish to extend their thanks to the members of the board
for co-operation in the past.

In order that any educational institution may work in harmony and meet the needs of the
immediate environment, it is necessary for the teachers of that institution to analyze conditions, and to adjust themselves accordingly.
The teachers of the high school, although practically all newly selected, adjusted themselves
to existing conditions very quickly, and the many outside ~activities into which they entered
during the past year, show the extent to which they applied themselves.

Union High in all y-our gl~ry,
>Green and white your colors true,
May thy purity and honor
·Be ·a life~long praise to you.
You're the best that's in Wisconsin,
·For all others we defy;
And thy name shall live forever,
You >Grand Old Union High.
All our work has been. a pleasure,
And our hearts have e'er been light,
As we gladly work together,
For the dear old green and white.
Through the four long years of learning,
All our knowledge we apply,
.In ·athletics none excel you,_
You Brave Old Union High.
Fo'r the past has been so pleasant,
And the future hopes seem bright,
But to thee we owe it ever
To the colors green and white.
When we leave our Alma ·Mater,
And our paths lead far apart,
Still the dear Old Uni,on High School
Is the pride of every heart.

E. VINCENT;
In order that any system may work with the most possible efficiency it is necessary that
subordinate positions of responsibility be filled with competent men and women. ,So it is with our
school.
Our janitor, Mr. Vincent, has done a great deal toward making our school activities run
smoothly. It is through his efforts that the building is so uniformly heated, that much lost
property is found and that the yard is so well kept.
At nearly every turn in the halls students are found in search of the janitor, and Mr. Vincent is always willing to aid them.' Mr. Vincent attends to the heating and lighting system, and
is plumber, carpenter, electrician, mechanic, engineer, according as he may be requested to act.

0 'Seniors! Our Seniors! the clRss of '21,
We've done our work so thoroughly (?), our credits we have won,
The time is near, when we shall hear, our professor heave a sigh and say,
"If I"ve another class like that, my hair will sure turn grey."
Seniors, flighty Seniors,
You'll surely learn some day,
We come to school to study,
And not" merely play.
0 Seniors! Our Seniors! we always did our best,
.1But when it came to having fun, we stopped with all the rest.
At sleighing parties, skating parties, and sliding down the hill,
Not only once, but many times, did we have a grand old spill.
0 classmates! dear old classmates!
Those happy days are o'er,
And now we're off to college
To open Future's door.
0 comrades! when we meet again, fond mem'ries we'll recall,
When we were graduated, in the Mode.rn Woodman hall.
Our high school days were happy ones, as each one will agree,
But now we all are happier, because you see, we're free.
Goodbye, fellow students! Goodbye!
We're all a wee bit sad,
To think of parting from you,
When such fun we all have had.
D. D.

m;bt ~tnior ((la~~

Here's farewell to the Senior's life,
To the school that proved so true,
To the ever-watchful faculty,
And the class advisors, too.

0 Seniors, worthy Seniors,
We shall miss you when you're gone.
You have set a good example,
By the excellent work you've done.

Here's good-bye to the Sophomores,
To the ;F'reshies green and 'bold,
To all the picnics and good times
We treasure just like gold.

0 Seniors, learned 'Seniors,
We shall miss your high ideals,
Though you oft have scorned our knowledge,
Which our innocence reveals.

Oh! it's great to be a Junior,
And take up a Senior's care,
But it's best to be a Senior
And become "Aluminum Ware."

We hope you'll not forget us,
In the weary years to come,
But will just recall your schooldays,
When of us you made much fun.
P. V. '22.

We reque,st the Prophet speak,
If the future we now seek,
Tell what fate for us has done
For the class of twenty-one.

Georgia, whom we now do see,
An actress of most high degree,
Ethel Barrymore she does surpass,
In talent, gracefulness and class.

Thus to us the Prophet spoke,
Future's weary thought invoke,
But because you so desire,
I will do as you require.

Vivian on the movie screen,
As star among them reigns supreme;
Since the death o£ Wallace 1Ried
He most gracefully takes the lead.

Phil will run a barber shop,
Selling candy, perfume and pop;
Early and late he may be seen
Working for a salary mean.

Floyd, a soldier brave will be,
Startling all the world you see.
In action he's both fearless and bold,
Becat:se preparedness he upholds.

Ethel, a little maid demure,
Set her heart on literature,
It was but a short-lived fad,
And poor Ethel turned quite sad.

Iris on fantastic toe,
Puts Castle in a very back row;
Her husband will in grand opera sing,
While she will teach the Highland fling.

Behold in Lyle a farmer lad,
Who thinks the country not so bad,
Contentment is his one great charm,
1Since settling on his little farm.

Bert to traveling he has taken,
And his nerves are badly shaken,
For playing on a "One Night ,Stand,"
As leader in a hot air band.

Dorothy with her smiles so beaming,
Of the future ever dreaming,
Love has played an active part,
A lucky senior holds her heart.

Laura with her actions queer,
Declares success is very near,
·An authoress of high esteem,
Writing scenarios for the screen.

Let me say one word in leaving,
To the teachers who are grieving,
Through this microscope I spy
A happy future to the U. F. High.
E. S.

In the fall we came so meekly,
To this school of fame,
Eager, anxious, and excited,
",Freshmen" was our name.

Sometimes failing, never stopping,
'Working with a will,
Slipping, gaining, losing, helping,
Ever onward still.

In the year which we've been with you,
We have tried our very best,
Working hard to please the teachers,
Getting very little rest.

Now the old year lies behind us,
And the new year points the way,
May the F'reshmen now turn Sophomores,
Growing wiser day by day.
I. s.

~bbice
There was once a little F'reshie,
But his friends were very few,
F'or he thought that there was nothing
In the world but what he knew.
So
always in the schoolroom,
Had a very forward way
Telling Seniors, Sophs, and Juniors
What they ought to do and say.
"Little Soph," he said, "I "wonder
Wihy you tease the F'reshies so,
Weren't you once a little F'reshie
Not s,o many years ago ? "

he

"And I wish, my old friend Junior,"
He began to her one day,
·
"That you wouldn't sit all morning
Learning rules that awful way;
Won't you come into the classroom
And work algebra for me?"
"If I do," said studious Junior,
"To my classes I'll be late."
"Prof won't care," replied the F'reshie,
"And no matter if he does.
Are we F'reshies very different
F'rom what he ever was?"
To be very wise and show it
Is a pleasant thing no doubt,

It was a lovely day in spring,
The F'reshies all felt gay.
Miss Kortendick was absent, and
They thot that they would play.
The paper wads were flying fast,
And some were coming down,
When all at once a speedy one
Just missed a fair maid's crown.
The little F'reshie maiden, with
A frown upon her face,
Turned to the mischief makers, and
They quickly took their place.
Then in wall:ed the professor, and
He glanced right at the floor,
He saw the mischief brewing, and
The wads upon th.: floor.
A lecture quickly followed, then
The Prof. quite angry grew;
And all the F'reshies listened, for
Each one was frightened through.
The Prof. was going to take off ten,
But Cyril saved the day.
He said, "Just give us one more chance,
I'm sure we will obey."

Mother constantly expresses her skepticism as to the advisability of continuing athletics,
and is certain that you are not able to stand the strain.
Father, to all intents and purposes, is entirely ignorant of your endeavors, and when reminded of them, has nothing to say beyond, "One of the best forms of exercise is cutting wood,
and there is plenty of that no farther away than the basement."
As to making your letter, he can make you a fine looking "W" (wood cutting), and besides there would always be split wood on hand. Inwardly though, father is watching you with
interest.
Brother condescends to "happen around" when the big event is staged. Sister gives you no
credit at all, and considers you as "extra baggage," belonging to the team as a whole. Her conversation with the girl next door about you, however, is very much in refutation of what she
tells you.
If you lose, your friends all congratulate you on your own good "try," and if you win,
they happen to remark, "light competition," iri referring to your success.

But, win or lose, the fellow who misses the above does not get all there is in high school;
and the boy who goes through it learns to bear defeat bravely and to rejoice in victory modestly,
which is something "book learning" doesn't teach him.

One line of work which was especially emphasized by the state department during the
past year was physical educ·ation. Physical edu-cation up to last year was considered an elective
branch of activity. Last year, however, it was made an established bl'anch, and was inserted in all
high school programs.
The development of anci'ent Greece, the history and literature of whkh owes its charm for
all ages to the physical activity of youth, best illustrates the necessity of this sort of education
in our schools today.
·
The Greeks could not conceive the idea of separating physical education from education
along other lines. They realized that a sane, whole mind could hardly reside in an unsound body
upon the integrity of which it was depended. Play in the words of a certain author is a part of
school ethics. It not only gives strength and courage but confidence as well. It tends to simplify
life and habits, and gives decision and promptness to the will. It also brings out individuality.
Schooling that lacks physical training and supervised play favors dullness, for work along
these lines makes the mind alert, and aids in putting joy in doing the necessary things in life.
"The measure of value of work is the amount of play ther-e is in it, and the measure of value
of play is the amount of work there is in it."

The Union Free High School basket ball teams have had a very successful season. ·When
the season had barely opened many of the men were talking of their team statistics. When the
first practice was held in the old M. W. A. hall, many enthusiastic young players turned out. There
was enough material to pick two good teams. 'Losing 'Only one man l-ast year, four of the first team
were back in the game. Pra~ctice session was held two nights a week until the te~ams showed real
ability.
The schedule showed the Genoa team, our first opponents. The following men were picked
to meet the Genoa quintet: Stoxen, g; 'Stockwell, c; Herrick, f; Hoeltdoerp, g; Schenning, f. From
the time the whistle blew our boys outclassed Genoa. The superior guarding of Stoxen and Hoeltdoerp held their opponents to few baskets, while our forwards and center did the scoring. The
game ended 21 to 19 in favor of Wilmot.
The next week's work meant good solid practice, for both teams were to meet the te~ams of
Antioch the following Friday. This game was rough throughout. Nobody was sure of victory
until the ,final whistle, which gave Antioch the long ends. !Score: Antioch first, 26; U. F'. H. S,
first, 20; Antioch second, 28; U. F. H. S. second, 8.
The defeat by Antioch did by no means dishearten our boys. The following week the boys
journeyed to Hebron to play the fast teams of that place. The games ended in Hebron's favor
Hebron first, 37; U. F. H. S. first, 11; Hebron second, 11; U. 'F. H. IS. second, 9.
The next we~ek's work meant hard practice, for the teams were to play Antioch on the
latter's floor. T'his game was a clean played game throughout. Our boys were set on getting
reveng'e for their former defeats by Antioch. Our second team lost; but the first team, by using
their five man defence when they were in the lead, netted them a victory. The game was ended
12 to 6.
Several of the players were forced to leave the game for the season. This weakened the
team to a gr~eat extent. Some of the men on the second team had to be used for the following
games. The last games were with 'Williams Bay. The games were decided in the opponent's favor.
With Stockweli, Stoxen and Herrick back for next year's squad, ·and Mr. Ihlenfeldt as coach,
it looks like a flashing team for Wilmot.

In order that we may keep in a healthy condition so that our bodies will be able to perform
their proper work, both food and drink must be consumed in such quantities as will satisfy the
common needs and also rebuild the worn out tissue.
In considering the value of different foods, one can hardly over estimate the importance
of milk and eggs. As a result of this, we should not fail to realize how essential these foods are
in attaining normal weight.
The United States food administration sr. ys: "A quart of milk a day for every child, if
possible, and a pint without fail." It also emphasizes the fact that each adult should drink at
least one-third of a quart each day.
Milk is indispensa:ble for a child's proper physical growth and mental development. In other
words, it not only builds bone and tissue but hea !thy minds as well. One quart of milk is equal
in food value to~ four- fifths lb. beefsteak, two and one-fourth lbs. chicken, one-half lb. ham, two
and one-half lbs. codfish, eight eggs, one and one-seventh lbs. beans, or six and two-thirds lbs.
tomatoes. According to the nutritive value of many medicines today in comparison to the value
of milk, it might be said that should milk be sold in medicine bottles, one would very frequently
pay a dollar for a single pint.
1

Too much emphasis cannot be placed on the value of a hot lunch. The child who eats a
warm lunch at school will be able to do better work, and as a ·result when he reaches maturity,
will be better qualified to take up the duties of life.
In general, we might say that the diet of the average person consists of food which is too
rich, too sweet, or too hard to digest. An ideal breakfast would consist of perhaps a dish of cereal,
a soft boiled egg, bread and butter, and some kind of fruit. Cake, pie and delicacies should be
eliminated.
Besides consuming the proper kind of food, it is essential that proper exercise be taken
each day. Proper exercise promotes the growth of muscle, increases circulation, enlarges. lung capacity, and stimulates every part of the body to good healthy growth.
F.resh air is also a fundamental feature for good growth. The child should sleep with his
window open in order that fresh, wholesome air is given a chance to replace the foul air in the
room.
The question of bathing, too, should receive attention. Baths not only keep the skin clean,
quicken circulation, but also add to the enjoyment and bodily vigor. Bathing should be indulged
in often. A cold bath should be taken every day if no chill follows. A warm bath should
also be taken at least once a week. The cold bath is the most stimulating and strengthening, and
if followed by a good rubbing with a coarse towel, will rarely produce any chilly or uncomfortable
sensations. The bather should keep in mind, however, that a bath taken after a meal while digestion is going on is not conducive to good health. At least two or three hours should elapse between
meal time and the time for a bath.
The scalp should also receive attention. It should receive a thorough washing at least once
a week. It is very important, too, that the teeth and nails receive their due share of c:
Now, if the underweight keeps himself in a healthy condition, it will take but a short time
for him to reach his normal weight. Normal in body means normal in mind-therefore an increased capacity for work.

The U. F. H. 'S. has not always been the well organized and prospering school that it is at
the present time. It, like most organizations, has had its dark and dull days, yet, because of the
. loyal support given by the citizens of the district, it has managed to weather every storm.
The ground on which the school is located was donated to the village by Mr. Benham for
a park. The village at that time was badly in need of a school, and consequently in 1835 thru the
efforts of the people, a school was built. The school at that time consisted of three rooms, one
of these was upstairs, and the other two down stairs.
In the year 1879 the school had grown to such an extent that the seating capacity was insufficient for the number of pupils. In order to accommodate the increase in pupils, it was necessary to add the left wing onto the building. At the time that the left wing was added, the ninth
and tenth grades were installed, and the school became a state graded school of the first class.
In the year 1904 through the efforts of Superintendent George Taylor and A. P. Minsart, two
more grades were added to the school and it became a common district high school. The school
at that time was under the principalship of A. P. Minsart, while Miss Perdu served as his assistant. The school itself was governed by the district board. The first high school class to finish
its work was the .class of 1907. It consisted of seven members.
The schoo·l remained under the direction of two teachers until 1912. In that year in order
to lighten the burden of taxation and in order to build up the school so that it would more nearly
meet the needs of the people, more territory was taken in, and the present school was formed.
The territory taken in consisted of Salem and parts of Randall and Wheatland townships. The
·first teachers in charge at the time that the new change was made, were Principal Squires and
Miss Grace Garey.
During the time that Principal Squires was at the head of the school 1 he keenly felt th~
need of an agricultural course for the community. As a result of a certain amount of effort on
· his part, a four year course in agriculture was installed.
In 1918 the school again failed to meet the needs of conditions, and another wing comprising two rooms was added. The library which had formerly been in the old addition was moved
upstairs, while a new course in domestic science was added for the girls, and the work was presented
in the newly constructed down ~birs room. The new course was installed under the direction of
Miss Ermine :Carey.
At the same time that the new wing was constructed in 1918, the people of the district felt
that a change ought to be made in the heating 1lystem in order to meet with the increase in heating area, and to insure a fresher supply of air for the different rooms. As a result of this, a
modern hot air heating system was instailed.
During the past year thru the efforts of the people who were instrumental in putting across
the fair, a modern water system was installed. This system makes it possible for the students
to re:ceive fresh water directly from the well. It eliminates the possibility of contamination to a
large extent.
We see in looking over the history of the school that progress has been steady thruout its
years of existence. It is our desire that this progress will be kept up in the future as it has in
the past.

1!tbt Value of ~bucatton
The people of today are beginning to realize more and more the value of education. They
are beginning to realize the folly in making a comparison between what is gained financially
thru child labor, and tii:at which is lost educationally.
The reasons for educating our children might be classified under three different heads. In
the first place, education broadens the mind. Each day new questions come up for our solution,
and because of the lack of education, we fail to answer them. In the cities today, one out of every
ten people is unable to read and write, and in the country, one out of every ·five. Broad minded
people are needed to increase the prosperity of a nation, and to raise its standard of living so
that the inhabitants lead contented lives. The man who is unable to read today finds a hundred
doors closed before him, for the employer of today seeks the industrious man who is able to do
good logical thinking. The uneducated man is required to do the hardest work for the least pay.
His labor is both necessary. and honorable, but there are too many men in the field. Each year
thousands of boys leave school to do the unskilled labor and thereby, forever close the door to
progress and good living. The girls who follow in their paths, may expect to join the large class
of women receiving less than five hundred dollars each year.
The second great purpose is the enjoyment of life, and the appreciation of human nature.
Many people express the idea that nature is an open book. Yet, if we are to get out of nature
what it has. in store for us, we must be well educated. The educated man is able like Burroughs
to know the secrets of flowers, birds, trees and animals. He, who has received a liberal education,
is able to find "tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones and good in everything."
The third purpose of education is training for citizenship. To earn a living and have
the power to interpret life is very important, but to these we may add a third, preparing "for citizenship. The revolutions in Turkey, Africa, Russia, Mexico, England and Germany point out very
vividly the ignorance of man. They prove without a doubt, that good government can succeed
only where there are intelligent voters. Our schools today are doing a great deal toward developing the type of manhood who will build and uphold a great republic such as ours.
The child who goes to work when young very often suffers from ill health, industrial inef,
ficiency, unemployment, low wages, poverty and illiteracy. In order that we may hold these
children in school, it is necessary that we provide schools that satisfy their needs.
No child can get an adequate education if he spends the minimum time in school that is
required by our constitution, and in many places because of poor or no truant officers not even
the required amount of attendance is found. Irregular attendance leads to retardation.. Retardation is not only a loss to the child, but a great expense to the state as well.
The number of children affected by the child labor law is small compared to the number of
children working. At the time of the last census, two million children were working, and three·
fourths were employed in agricultural pursuits. The states having the highest per cent of child
labor have also the highest per cent of illiteracy. Child labor and illiteracy go hand in hand.
At the child welfare convention held in June, 1919, the working age for children was fixed as
follows: A child between the age of fourteen and sixteen may be employed in agricultural and
domestic service thru vacation only. A child must be at least eighteen before going into mines
or quarries, and twenty-one before entering government service. No minor should be employed
in dangerous places or at any work which will interfere with the physical or moral condition. All
children between the age of seven and .sixteen must spend at least nine months of every year in
school. Children between the ages of sixteen and eighteen, having finished the eighth grade but
not the high school and are legally or regularly employed, must spend at least eight hours at con 7/
tinuation school. All children must be physically able to work before they are allowed to do -io.
Wesee then, how necessary it is to have education. Education should not end with youth,
but it should continue throughout life. The daily problems requiring solution may be educational and elevating. A good education for every child should be the slogan of the citizens of
today.

During the past year the teachers of the Wilmot high school have tried to make the character of the work just as broad as possible. At the beginning of the yea.r the possibilities for a
community fair in connection with the high school arose. The teachers of the high school together
with the teachers of the grades, the rural teachers of the immediate vicinity and in short, all of
the people of the community co-operated in exhibiting a fair which was considered second to none
among the community fairs of the state. The fair did a great deal toward arousing the interest
of the boys and girls in farm work. The different things exhibited were farm animals, vegetables.,
grains, household articles, as well as regular school work.
As soon as the fair was over, a need was ielt for special training along literary lines, and
as a result, a society was formf'd in the school. The society is known as the Athena. The membership of this -organization is made up of all students in the high school together with the
members of the faculty. The programs of the society ar e held every second Friday afternoon. A
great deal -of debating is carried on at these meetings, together with declamatory work, demonstration work, musiC, and excellent work in parliamentary drill.
As a means of encouraging work along oratorical and declamatory lines, a contest was held
in which all students might enter. The contest proved of great benefit in arousing interest along
these lines. Gold and silver medals were awarded to the winners.
As a means of providing an opportunity for intellectual development and also for social
recreation, a dramatic club was organized. The play, ''Deacon Dubbs," was staged on three dif. ferent occasions, and on each occasion the students met with much success. A great deal of
benefit was derived from the work.
In going over the different activities of the .school, we must not fail to mention the hearty
support that the school received from the Parent-Teachers' association. Among the prominent people who delivered addresses at these meetings were Superintendent Kerwin; Professor Rounds, -of
Milwaukee; Miss Worsely, of Kenosha; Mrs. Featherston, of Chicago; and Professor Yoder, of
Whitewater Normal.
The purpose of the work was to bring· parents and teachers into closer relation so that they
might underst:lnd each other's conditions and problems and thus work together to the best advantage.
Another phase of work which received especial attention the past year was that of physical
training. The state department has long felt the need of physical training for boys and girls,
but it was not until this year that it was finally put into the course of study as a required branch.
As- a result of this change, the boys and girls received excellent training along these lines.
Practical work in manual training was made possible for the boys. They assisted in the
construction of a large building near the campus to •be used as a shelter for the horses and cars
brought to school by the boys who live some distance from the village.
Arrangements have been made for the holding of a lyceum course the coming winter. The
committee consisting of Rev. Jedele, R. C. Bufton, Mrs. Orvis, Mrs, G. Bassett and R. S. Ihlenfeldt, chose two musical numbers. The Redpath Lyceum Bureau, of Chicago,
furnish the
talent. A larger program would have been arranged had it not been for th e fact that a lyceum
course had already been arranged for at Silverlake. It is hoped tht the two villages will cooperate in the future, and that a lyceum course consisting of six numbers will be given under the
auspices of both villages, three of which to be held at Silverlake and three at Wilmot. In this
way it would be possible through co-operative effort to present programs that would be of superior
character.
·

will

In conclusion it can readily be seen that the school has done a great deal toward entering
into outside activities during the past year. Considering that the majority of the teachers will
remain in the school the coming year, much more can be expected along these lines of effort.

THE COMMUNITY SHEID
AND :SOM'E MANUAL TRAINING PROJECT'S

~be C!tommunttp jfair
The largest community fair that was ever held in this section of the country took place at
Wilmot, October 15, 1920. The fair was a decided success in every respect. The fact that over
$800 was turned in from concessions, ice cream stands, side shows, baby shows, etc., shows the
extent to which the fair was a success. The fair was financed from its own returns, making it
unnecessary to ask for special contributions.
The business places of Wilmot showed their good will by closing up their business house3
for the afternoon and evening. A great many of the community leaders gave their services for
days before in putting up tents, canvases, etc., for the occasion.
The high school grounds proved to be ide--tl for the various feats that were carried out,
and the high school building with its modern system of ventilation filled all the requirements
necessary for accommodating the thousands that came to view the exhibits housed within it.
One of the special exhibits which attracted much attention was the grain exhibit displayed
Pcge Thirty-Four

~be cteommunitp jfair~-Continued
by Mr. Luke, of Wheatland. Mr. Luke has had a great deal of experience along these lines, and
much credit is due him for the success of the fair.
The grain exhibit, poultry exhibit, vegetable exhibit, and stock exhibit was pronounced by
many to have been equal in quantity and· character to those in the largest county fairs of our
state, while the exhibit of fancy work was said by many to have surpassed the exhibit at the
state fair. The school exhibits were also v~ry fine and the teachers of the towns of Salem, Randall, and Wheatland did nmch to help the Gause along.
One of the noticeable features of the fair was the large pike that was arranged by the
community leader-s 'with the assistance of the high school.
The athletic events of the day were very well planned and were carried out very systematically. 'Many cash prizes were awarded to the 'winners of the athletic events. The game of base
<ball between the high schools of Antioch and Wilmot was very exciting. It had to· be postponed
after the fourth inning, however, for the rain interfered. The score was 3 to 4 in favor of Antioch. There were twenty-six races and contests staged. Among the most interesting and ex..
citing was the greased pole contest. It was almost impossible for the contestants to reach the
watch attached to the top of the pole, but one little fellow more daring.than the others succeeded
in securing it. The greased pig and the wild chicken chases were wildly applauded by the spectators.
The 1baby show was one of the big features of the afternoon. Miss Rasmussen, the county
nurse, awarded prizes of $1 to the fattest baby, Stanley Schultz; the prettiest baby, Dorothy Buckley; the best dressed, .Margery Wright; the best natured, Alta Vandersee, and the biggest rogue,
Stanley Ihlenfeldt.
In spite of the heavy downpour of rain, more than three thousand people stood out in the
open,· and with water trickling down their backs, witnessed one of the largest and most elaborate
parades that was ever seen in Kenosha county.
·
The marshal of the day, Arthur Pankni n, of Camp Lake, rode ahead on a graceful bay
horse. Mr. Panknin was followed by the .Salem band which played several appropriate selections.
The senior class float, artistically decorated in blue and white, came nex£. Above the float was
printed the class motto, "If we rest, we rust." The next float was the juniors. This float was
trimmed with the class colors, purple and gold, and here the junior motto, "Quality not Quantity."
The junior float was followed by a beautifully decorated r-ed, white and blue float which carried
Uncle Sam, the Statue of Li<berty, two Red Cross nurses, a soldier and a sailor carrying the slogan, "America First." The "Sophs" came next. Their float was decorated in purple and white, and
bore the phrase, "We lead, not follow." The freshies' motto, "1Rough and -!Ready," was next seen
on a background of old rose and green.
·
After the high school floats came the float from the Bassett graded school. This was a car
decorated with colors and symbols of Hallowe'en. Then came the Silverlake school float, which was
beautifully deoorated in autumn leaves. After these came the Twin Lakes school, <Slade's Corners,
Barnard school, 'Miner school, and Oak Knoll school floats, alL of which represented a great
amount of time and energy to dec-orate.
After these came the Salem Center school, a red and white float, Wilmot primary ·school,
a cart decorated beautifully in white and rainbow colors carrying a Japanese lady drawn by
twelve little boys, then the Wilmot intermediate grade float, a float representing farm life with
the slogan, "We'll stick to the farm if you give us a square deal." The R. N. A. also had a very
fine float. This was decorated in purple and white.
Other features of the parade which added to the procession were: The colonial cart of the
Trevor school, the toy auto from Salem, the goat and cart from New Munster, dog carts, baby

buggies, Scotch Highland lassies, a little girl leading a beautiful dog, and last but not least the
clowns which always accompany a parade.
The business interests of the community also took an active part in the parade. The Carey
Electric Co. was represented, the Hartnell and Breul garages, and a float representing the Wilmot
business men.
The following floats received prizes: The first prize of $5 for the best high school float
was awarded to the seniors, the first prize of $5 for the <best school float other than the high
school, was awarded the primary department from Wilmot. The second prize of $3 was awarded
to the Bassett school. The ,Royal Neighbors were awarded $5 for the best outside float.
The evening entertainment at the Woodman hall was exceptionally well patronized. The
hall was crowded to its utmost capacity. The first number given was a talk by Mr. Stokdyk, state
leader of boys' and girls' club. Mr. Stokdyk spoke on "Modern Education" and showed that its
tendencies are toward making school work more practical. The talk was followed by two songs by
Wilmot's talented soloist, Arthur Buckley, accompanied by Edna Lois.
Mr. Schroeder, managing editor of the Wisconsin Agriculturist, then spoke of the necessity
of organization among farmers, and told what the farm bureau if\ accomplishing along this line.
Besides the above numbers which were given, Hazel Lubkeman, Grace Werve and ·Rose
Luffler, of Kenosha, gave some very pretty dances. Among the dances were the "Boot Dance"
and "A Beckoning Call." After the above program was given, dancing was indulged :in. One of
the .special features of the evening .program was the raffling of the .pure bred hog donated by
Wm. Voss. The hog was an exceptionally fine :::nimal and was won by Fred Rube, of Wilmot.
The fair committee wishes to extend its thanks to the .public for its help in mak:ing the fair
such a success. It is only through co-operation, such as was shown during the fair that events of
this kind are able to be carried out. We feel that we owe a great deal to the people who brought
in their exhibits; to the judges who so willingly rendered their services, and to the boosters of the
town who assisted with the work which had to be done; to the business men of the community
who so liberally donated prizes and .prize money; to the members of the high school district who
so generously donated eats, and last but not least to the women and teachers whose services meant
so much toward making the fair a success.
The community at large extends its thanks to Prof. Ihlenfeldt for his untiring efforts in
.putting over the fair, which would not have been carried through had it not been for his .personal leadership and supervision.
With the fair such a success as it was, there is no question, considering the .pluck of the
community leaders, that a community fair held at Wilmot next year would be a successful one.
Let's get busy for next year and make the Wilmot fair of 1921 the biggest and best event of the
season. We have the right spirited .people; we have ideal grounds, and we know the people will
patronize it.

{!teacber~
There are teachers that make us happy,
There are teachers that maks us blue,
There are teachers that steal away the standings
As winter steals fall's golden hue.
There are teachers that have a wicked meaning,
Which the freshmen alone defy,
But the teachers that. fill our hearts with raptures,
Are the teachers of U. F. High.

Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to eat and die:

Marched the students.

'Crackers in front of them,
While spoons and forks jingled;
On went the kids with a shout;
Boldly they pushed about,
Just so that they can eat
The hash made without the meat.
On marched the students.

They marched to a nearby table
Helpless and starving.
Honor the charge they made!

If you want to live in the kind of a town
Like the kind of a town you like,
You needn't put your clothes in a, grip,
And start on a long, long· hike;

You'll only find what yo;r left behind.

It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town.

Now I lay me down to rest
,Before I take tomorrow's test;
If I should die before I wake
I then would have no test to take.

A church without its steeple,
A man without his "rep,"
Is not so bad I tell you,
As a school without its "pep."

L1EC'.DUiRE FOLLOWING FURNACE EPISODE

Ubtn tbt ~rot Ua~ ~wap
Onc't there were some senior boys who nevex would obey,
They were always. up to something when their teacher was away.
And onc't when they got started at their work down in the shop
A certain one suggested that their work they ought to drop.
So they climbed up in the little room that's just behind the fan
To see what it was made of, and if it really ran ..
But, alas the trusty janitor while on his daily round
Closed up the door behind them, and to stay there they were bound.
"It's awful hot," said one of them, "I wish P. K. were here."
Then came the words "Come help us out, we'll smother and oh dear."
The teachers scampered here and there to find whence came the noise.
'I'hey found them in the basement-two vestigatin' boys.
They crawled out on their hands and knees,
All sheepish like and red.
"We'H never, never, never, go in there again," they said.

Onc't there was a s.enior boy, a passin' friendly notes
To girls who liked to read 'em, and considered 'em as jokes.
And onc't when he was busy a se]ldin' one along,
There was a great tall lady detected something wrong.
She walked right up in front of him, and said,
- "Now· Floyd, see here, don't ever let this thing occur
to you again this year.
And you'd better 'member this,
'Cause if you don't without a doubt,

A pupil flunked in a study, and admitted he deserved to.
A teacher made a mistake and confessed he was wrong.
Some one erased part of the daily program in the assembly.
Two or three young fellows were visiting with girls in the assembly.
Paper wads were throvrn in the main room.

The seniors all agreed?
Floyd W. prepared all his lessons?
"P. K." should hurry?
Marion would keep still for ten whole minutes?
Edwin would speak to the girls?
Vivian stopped talking politics?
Arthur W. should get his algebra?
Floyd P. should ever change his opinions?
Cyril stopped writing witty poems?
Irma S. forgot to tell jokes?
Stanley S. should stay in nights?
Horace lost some of his foolishness?
Herbert L. lost his smile?
Doris couldn't argue?
Don H. would have a current topic?
Lyle would ever forget to send a letter home with
Horace F.?
Ruby W. should break her attendance record?

,Silently one by one in the class record books of the teachers, blossom the lovely naughts, the
forget-me-nots of the flunkers.
Of all sad words of tongue or pen,
The saddest are: "exams again."

Two things that will assist one in securing his sheep skin.
1. A F'aculty of Working.
2. A Working the Faculty.

When on you the troubles keep piling,
Just get right up and keep smiling;
_'\nd if you'll keep this point in mind,
You'il never, never fall behind,
So keep on smiling.
M. K. '23.

Oh, the meanness of the Junior when he's mean,
Oh, the leanness of a Senior when he's Jean,
,But the leanness of the leanest,
Or the meanness of the meanest
Is not in it with the Freshmen when he's green.

The Fordson saves from thirty to fifty per cent of the
farmer's time.
The Fordson plows, harrows, drills as much ground in
the same time as from four to six horses. <Many farmers say
it does the work of eight horses.)
The Fordson does for the farmer just what machine
power does for the manufacturer-it enables him to manufacture hisproduct at less cost.

The Fordson helps the farmer .to make his margin of
profit greater.
