Hn 061210 Zbimimini Oh! Chintirnini, old and blue What mysteries could be told by youg With hoary head and watchful eye, You seem to tell of years gone by, Of early days when you were young, Your glens with Indian war whoops rung. Your giant snow clad shaggy head, Has witnessed many a warrior dead, Buried on your deep old breast To tell their legends while at rest. You know of deeds, young and old, But yet you stand so stern and cold, And still you tower in the sky To look upon us from on high. But then at last the white man came To show his glories, deeds and fameg Then many an Indian smoke talk rose And towered above your trees and snows, To tell the World of blood and war, And brave men crossing o'er the bar. But when the Red man swore to peace, And buried hatchet, paint and grease, Still you stood, and still will stand Till Worn away by No Mans' hand. - Heinie '13 Glhiniimini PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OF Corvallis High School To the best interests of Olnruallia High Srhnnl the good times her Students have had together Qhi 5 An 11 u at in inyfullg Brhiratvh .

It is the library in which are stacked away the works and memories of each class, the volumes of which will be taken down and reviewed, at certain intervals by each member of the organ- ization. Thus the Association lives largely as a memory though it may Work to the betterment of its members and that of the school when it has grown sufficiently to permit broader activities. At the present time the Association can not boast because of its size but it has annual seasons of growth. Once each year its membership in- creases by the Graduating Class, and, unlike those of the High School, its members never graduate. Whatever talent the High School may at any time possess will finally pass to the Alumni Association to remain there. At the annual election held soon after the banquet given to the Class of '12, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President-Ralph Hollenberg. l Vice-President-Pearl Newton-Tallman. Secretary-Bertha McHenry. Treasurer-Etta Adams. ' ALUMNI NOTES. There are thirteen members of the Alumni in attendance of some col-- lege, university or normal school at the present time. Those attending the Oregon Agricultural College are: Earl Kingsley '12, Brooke Hukill '11, Hazel Bowers '11, Esther Smith '11, Lydia Doolittle '11, Albert Parcel '12, Winnifred Aldrich '12, Etta Adams '11, Enid Leeper '11, Susie Darst '11, and Elva Beals '11. Anne Miltimore '12' is attending the Normal School at Los Angeles, California, and Georgie Kessi '11, is attending Pacific Uni- versity. Ralph Hollenberg '12 will finish a very successful term of school at gurnauit, Oregon, on May 30th. He has been teaching since the first of c o er. . Guy Martin '12 attended O. A. C. until he became more learned than the professors and then accepted a position in an asbestos house in Portland. When last heard of Merle Tidd '11 was in California. , Manette Hanson '12 taught a three months school at Hoskins, Oregon, and then taught another three months school south of Corvallis. Earl Kingsley '12 wishes to have it known that since he has gone to college he has become a non-fusser. Special reasons will be furnished upon inquiry. Frederick Beck, our first alumni baby, entered the school of life on November 8th, 1912. His mother, who was Miss Edith Whiting graduated with the '11 classg and on February 18th, 1912, Was married to Harry Beck, a former member of the same class. Bertha McHenry '12 and Bernice Chambers '12 are at home now. Miss McHenry was employed as stenographer at O. A. C. during the first part of the year. Merle Hathaway '12 taught a six months' school at Hoskins, Oregon. Merle must be quite a school marm by this time. Since Casey Jones met his fate Earl Kintner '11 has taken his place and is now employed by a railroad company in Carrollton, Ohio. Winnie King '11 is employed at Waldo Hall. A person might think some of the Alumni students were taking post work at the High School by the way they stay around there, but we simply can not stay away. Everett Taylor '12 has returned to the soil this spring. He was em- ployed by the Glafke Commission Company during the winter. Mildred Ollis '12 is teaching a two months school at Ocean View, Ore- gon. We exj ect to have her with us for our banquet. Grace Corbett '12 is employed at Attorney Glos's oiiice. Anna Fielder '12 taught a six months' school on Kiger's Island, south of Corvallis, this winter. An occurrence that did not surprise any of us came to pass June lst, 1912, when Grace Houck '11 and Harry Fegley, a former High School stu- dent, were united in marriage. Daughter, called the father from his position at the top of the stairs, at the well-known hour of 11:55 p. m., doesn't that young man know how to say good-night ? Does he ?', echoed Bertha in the darkened liallg well, I should say he does. On April 7th, 1913, Cupid completed that which he began five or six years ago when Mary Leonard '11 married Edward Bilyeu, an ex-'11. They now reside at Tigard, a suburb of Portland. V When Pearl Newton '12 and Percy Tallman, former '12, became so in- fatuated with each other five years ago, many of us thought, There's many a slip betwixt cup and lip,, but not so in this case, for they were married October 26th, 1912, and lived happily ever after. Greeting to the Class of l9l3 We give you, the Senior Class of Corvallis High School, 1913, a hearty Welcome. We can sympathize with the hardships and trials which you have had to overcome, your feelings of discouragement, your times of triumph, your short-lived defeats. We, too, have fought the fight. We, too, have been crowned with laurel, and have lived through the eventful days of graduation. We are glad to welcome your young enthusiasm and appreciation and we ask your hearty cooperation in making this Alumni Association a strong and helpful influence for good in this community. Scatter seeds of helpfulness all along the way, Kindly thoughts and words and deeds brighten all the day, Life is full of little stings, Heal them While you may- Hearts are gladdened by a smile, tho' the skies be gray. 77 K al, K V' 6' ., f x X F X W X Y Q ?

A REVERIE OF THE PAST fffffff NNNXXY Scene-Lower hall, high school building. Two Seniors meet and dis- cuss the past and present. T. M. Hello there, Ray Price, glad to see you this bright and cheer- ful day. How are you, anyway? R. P. Oh, I'm all right, Doc., you look happy, what's afloat old man? Were you fussin' last night? T. M. No, I am going to to-night. R. P. Aw, you crumb. Where is all the bunch? I have been all over town and can't find anybody. Must be resting up a little. T. M. It is sucha peachy day that every one feels lazy. Well, I sup- pose to-morrow we will have to put on a clean collar, shine our shoes, 'slick our hair down and step over to the brick church after our sheep-skins. R. P. Yes, I suppose so. Say, Doc, when you think about things seriously, it seems rather queer that we have really finished old High School. Haven't we had some great larks? T. M. Well yes, it hasn't been all Work. There are not very many left from the bunch that graduated from the eighth grade, are there? R. P. No, I should say not. Only about eight, I guess. You and I have hung to the water-wagon all right. Say, what a tearing time We used to have when we were in that class! . T. M. I guess I remember that all right. That was When most of the kids got the fussin' idea, wasn't it? Only they didn't call it that then. Do you remember Check Vincent? R. P. Yes! He was the guy that always liked to sit with the girls. I wonder where he is now. I T. M. I think he lives at Woodburn. And there is Fenton Star too, but it would take forever to mention all of them. Fent didn't enter high school at all, did he? R. P. No. But he has a soft thing-clerking in Johnson and Hunter's grocery up town. I T. M. Yes. Saving money to get married I suppose. That is a swell girl he has. I R. P. Harriette Foster made quite a hit in The Senior this year, didn't she? She is one of our eighth grade acquaintances, too. T. M. Right you are, boy, and speaking of The Senior reminds me that Evelyn the Leading lady was one of the old bunch, too. As Eleanor Forbes, she was just about perfect, believe me. Mac McHenry had a part in the play, too. We were well represented all right. I guess that is about all of us that are left. R. P. No. Mamie Harper is another. And we mustn't forget Faye Barzee. A T. M. Yes, and Axtell also, but I guess that is all. R. P. Didn't we raise things when we called ourselves High-school Students? Always noted for the worst class in school and if any thing happened they always knew where it originated. Class fights, etc.. T. M. Great high school we had for a year. One room on the top iioor, in the southeast corner of the old Central School, but when the new High School was completed we tried to buy out the town. R. P. Wasn't much happened the first year. Guess we were too green. T. M. I had the most fun when I was a Soph. There was something doing every minute, especially when the faculty decided that we were having too much fun. R. P. I'1l say we had a time. I know why you had such a roaring good time when you were a Soph. T. M. Well, why? R. P. That was when you met J--. T. M. Oh, get out! That was when troubles began. Har! Har! We have several new ones in the class this year and several more that came during the Soph and Junior years. R. P. Yes, there are a few all right. Our friend Dunk for instance- and there is old Steve. He just came here this year. Mighty good fel- lowg the boys all like him. ' T. M. Yes, and so does Blushes. They are getting to be some fussers all right. R. P. Steve was Gordon Wainwright in the play this year, wasn't he? T. M. You're right. Say, sometimes I wonder if that fellow's name is Earl Schuster or just SteVe. Every one calls him that. R. P. We certainly have some large class this year, more than double the number of the past two years. And, girls! my sakes, there are just about twice as many as there are boys. Lets count them up and see. T. M. Sail into it. Bernice Corrie precedes in size, if nothing else. She says she is going to be a school-ma'am, but I know better. Too much of a fusser. Lena Wolcott and Coral Garvin are some more that are go- ing to be school-ma'ams. Coral was always fussin' with Dunk. R. P. Lena Wolcott will make a good one. She taught our history class two or three times. That makes three. Then there is Irene Ollis, the girl with the fuzzy-wuzzy brown hair and pink cheeks, and Gladys Rice the big girl with the heap of light hair. T. M. Hold on there. We'll get to finding characteristics and forget to count. How many was that? R. P. Five. Then, Ivy Witzig, Laura Tadlock, and Lera Newton make eight. Laura Tadlock and Lera Newton were great pals. T. M. Marie Andrews and the two girls that always wear blue sailor dresses. Guess who they are. R. P. Oh, that is easy. Jean Bell and Charline Beck. Come on down the alphabet. Lila Chase, Helen Corl, and Dorothy Cook. Isn't it funny how you always remember just how the roll used to go? That's fourteen. Who else? T. M. Oh,-little Rozelle Hardman. She is the smartest one in the bunch because she is getting through in three years and a half and that is more than the rest of us are doing. Delphia Hartzog did, though, and Harriette Foster, too. R. P. That reminds me, Ruth Oviatt is going to graduate with us. Eighteen. Come on, Doc, get your fingers up here and let's count. T. M. Just wait a minute. Mamie Harper, Muriel McHenry, and her pal, Faye Barzee, and-Oh,-Evelyn Cathey. Twenty-two and we have about fourteen boys. R. P. But see what a good bunch we are though. We've got some good athletes anyhow. Old C. H. S. had a bright spot in athletics this year. Just seemed to be a good year. T. M. Next year, when they don't have Moses and Farmer and Steve and of course you and me, why, things will be ruined, won't they? R. P. You bet. Well, Doc, I'll have to be moving. You going up town old sport? T. M. No, not this afternoon. R. P. Well, so long. I'll see you at the exercises tomorrow night. T. M. All right, so long. H. E. S. '13 ., H Pipe Dftdlll Well, boys, light up your pipes for the last time. Probably none of the teachers will happen around. If any of you fellows don't happen to have any Usmokin' , just get some of Ray Price's, maybe it won't put you on the sick list afterwards. But remember, it's the pipe of peace now-peace for the old scores, if there have been any, and peace for the school, from which we are now about to depart. Boys, this is the time for hallowed memories. It was a happy day when Providence turned our thoughts in the direction of C. H. S., and we finally reached the school that we now leave-and love. Our stars have since then been lucky stars all along the way. 'Even Axtell has improved with the years, and Parcel and Dunkin formed two of our successful de- baters. Bill Averill is recognized as an expert mechanic. Thereis Milton Harper who no doubt will be one of the most successful of modern farm- ers, and Pete Farmer who will make the best of anything he encounters. And so on, as we look 'round the circle-it makes a fellow pause to think of these mighty men that are to go forth to battle with the world. After school, what? College, for most of us-O. A. C., Oregon, California, Stan- ford, Yale, Chicago, or Princeton. After College, if we get through, what? Well, Parcel will doubtless be a great orator. We need men of com- manding eloquence in this country just now. Schuster, we predict, will probably be a consul in Italy somewhere, listeing to the gondoliers while gliding along under moon-lit southern skies. Hollenberg, we think, will be a college professor in mathematics, with Ralph Morgan holding down a similar position at some girls' school. Dunkin's picture as a leading minister, seems enviably assured. Theo. Morris will become a kind of understudy of Thomas A. Edison in the moving picture world. I-Ieinie Feemster will shortly be pulling his five thousand dollars per as a south paw, probably in the Bush Leagues. Nathan Manock will be running a photo gallery of course, and the rest will raise the dust in some other way -if we keep out of jail in so doing. But, seriously, we did do something for the old school, after all. Not many classes can boast of so great a number participating in all forms of athletics, not many classes have had so large a proportion active in de- bateg not many have had such all-around scholars, not many have had so many fellows enter into school activities and enterprise in general, not many have had so few who have fallen by the wayside. We do not go away with downcast faces. And what little we may have done here, let us hope, is but a prohecy of the good time coming when one or the other of us will set the world on fire in some of it's benighted districts. President fof chicken associa- tions at leastl ? Yes. Leaders of College athletic teams and musical clubs '? Yes CFarmer and Moses for examplej Some of us have been here four years, some several years, and some have come to the old school just recently, attracted by its widening repu- tation. But we have all gained good fellowship, and even a little knowl- edge, and we have not broken any more rules than was necessary for our self-respect. And we have learned to reverence ideals and to believe in them, and to carry away with us what C. H. S. stands for, a genuine striv- ing for Good Citizenship. Well, boys, this is truly a great picture-fifteen of us gathered into a circle, each with his favorite pipe, smoking away his last few hours of high school life. Each and everyone in ,apparent joy, as he tells stories and laughs in the twilight. Someone mentions what the Senior girls are perhaps doing-but we know not-they were not invited to the smoker, for we know that they cared not to smoke. But the ashes are getting low in the bowls of your pipes, boys. Mash 'em down for the final puff or two. The sky is reddening and the moon is venturing from behind the hills. Streaks of moonlight are reiiected across the room, but the pleasure is enjoyed by the noble fifteen. Hav- ing quietly smoked away our last remaining ashes, we prepare to go. Shall we go? Oh! yes, we must-we cannot stay.

U2 U1 Q A O D3 O Z D P1 junior mass Bistorv Well, now let's look it up, said the old record-keeper when asked for the 1914 class history. Your class entered High School in 1910, didn't it? Yes, I remember how all the upper-classmen stood around and wondered when you were Rooks. My it was funny. And the old man shook his old gray head and laughed. They were looking for something green but the Way you stepped around simply dumfounded themf' By the time football season opened you were Well acquainted and it Was exceedingly easy for the '14 boys to get on the first team. Also many Freshmen showed great interest as well as ability in debate that year. Then you had such jolly good times. Everybody noticer that. I re- member Well when you had your first party and the Sophs tried to steal your refreshmentsg but when you had your picnic they didn't say a word. The next year your record was even better for you were Sophomores and had had more experience. Again the boys played important parts in football and debate. In the latter the girls participated. When basketball season opened the '14 class were there with the best men, but it was in baseball that you won the championship. And I don't forget the way some of you worked in the play. It was While you were Sophs that the first High School play was given and much dramatic talent was found in your class. The good times were not forgotten either, for in the spring you had a picnic and were the first ones to observe the nine o'clock rule. That pleased the faculty, which was one of your strong points. ' Of course you didn't fail to keep up the record as Juniors. In foot- ball Sap, Joe, Feg, Morg, Bill, and Fruit did fine work. Several Juniors took an active part in the various debates of the school. The basketball championship was won by the Juniors. Why, you should have seen Feg and King, they were splendid! Your dramatic talent was by no means overlooked, for Lance, Tillery, Beck and Sap all had parts in the High School play. The second championship-oh, that was great! and the old fellow laughed and laughed, Why the Juniors simply ran off with the Interclass meets. You certainly have a fine record, certainly have, said the record- keeper, and don't be afraid to keep it up. And he closed the book and went off chuckling to himself. jlllli0l'S OFFICERS.

Several individuals, gathering around him, questioned him con- cerning his business and his countryg but they perceived that he was un- acquainted with their language, and that he was likewise ignorant of the most common usages of society. At the same time, the dignity and intelli- gence of his demeanor, forbade the idea of his being either a barbarian or a lunatic. l When, at length, he understood by their signs, that they wished to be informed whence he came, he pointed with great significance to the sky, upon which the crowd proceeded to pay him divine honors. But he no sooner comprehended their design than he rejected it with horrorg and bending his knees and raising his hands towards heaven in the attitude of prayer, gave them to understand that he was also a Worshiper of the powers above. After a time, it is said, the mysterious stranger accepted the hospitalities of one of the nobles of the city, under whose roof he applied himself with great diligence to the acquirement of the language, in which he became so proficient, that in a few days he was able to hold intelligent intercourse with those around him. The noble host now resolved to take an early opportunity of satsify- ing his curiosity respecting the nationality and quality of his guest, and upon expressing his desire, the stranger assured him that he would answer his inquiries that evening after sunset. Accordingly, as night approached, he led him forth upon the balcony of the palace which overlooked the wealthy and prosperous city. Innumerable lights were reflected now in the dark bosom of the noble river. the Willamette, where stately vessels laden with rich merchandise from all parts of the world lay anchored in the port. The stranger mused a while on this scene an dlistened to many sounds, then suddenly he looked up into the sky and fixed his eyes upon the beauti- ful evening star which was just sinking behind the grove. Marvel not, that I am wont to gaze on yon star said he to his host, that was my home. Yes, I was lately an inhabitant on that planet, when a vain cur- iosity tempted me to Wander. Often had I beheld, with wondering admiration, this brilliant world of yours, and the ardent desire I had long felt to know something of its condition, was at length unexpectedly gratified. I received power from above to come. Again the stranger looked out upon the vast city beneath him, and slowly began to talk. Not long ago, I had a vision of a body of young people, who were grouped together under this name: 'The Sophomore Class of the Corvallis High School.' The name is rather long and there- fore rather hard to forget. Long I pondered over this great name until at last I came to the conclusion that the class existed upon the earth. But will you not tell me of your vision ? cried the host. Yes, replied the stranger, that is my mission to the world. I was gazing upon a tranquil planet fthe earthy afar off, and a breeze was softly blowing against my face. As it came it brought wonderful tidings of a great people who were intelligent and energetic, and as I listened I could see the class of '15, They were on a great road ever climbing, climbing to their goal: SUCCESS, which was written in large letters at the end of a road. Not far off were the Juniors and some Seniors. At the end of the road some Freshmen came straggling along. It was the Sophomores who most attracted my eye. They were climb- ing with apparent ease, gradually nearing the goal. Huge boulders lay in. the way in the shape of propositions and problems in geometry, speeches to be made in English, and in one place lay a great pile of histories, Latin books, book-keeping sets, and botany notebooks. These hindrances were very annoying at first but at last they found that if they would stop and study these books they would silently dis- appear. This was done and the Class of '15 was the first class to reach the goal SUCCESS. The stranger ceased and as the night deepened all was silent, for a hush had fallen over the vast city. Then suddenly a great light appeared in the tower of a large building in the central part of the city and by this light the stranger and the host saw a magnificent banner floating against the sky on which was Written, Sophomores, Class of 1915. -Mary Rorick '15, GRIND!

This number was increased in February to one hundred and fifteen. and fifteen. Our class has made a better showing than any other Freshman Class that ever entered C. H. S. We placed four men upon the football team, namely: Butts, Pete, Gloomy,', and Grandpa We also placed two men on the basketball team and one on the debating team. We are all very studious and stand high in the esteem of our teachers. While yet very young we learned the rapid process of making up history notes. CU During the first semester we had a Masquerade Ball fthe Sophs put the masks on us before we enteredj and so good were the masks that some ran off with the other fellows' wives. Everybody reached home safely except Pan and how he succeeded in getting home is beyond comprehen- sion. We have accomplished many remarkable feats, among which were the scaring of the Soph banner from the street. and giving them'a severe drubbing in basketball. One of our greatest accomplishments was the capturing of second place in the interclass meet. We also had elaborate dreams of our future, and one of our number has done nothing but dream for nearly three years. fWho?

In 1910, the Board of Directors. always anxious to be abreast, or even a little ahead of the times, established the Depart- ment of Home Economics, at an initial cost of 3250. During the first year, the time was limited to two forty-five minute recitations per week, D. S. and D. A. alternating. Now all the D. S. and some D. A. classes have ninety minute periods daily. Much interest is shown by the girls, and great skill developed, considering the crowded condition of the department. Freshman girls are taught simple cookery and food principles. Sen- iors deal with intricate problems such as a study of digestion, proper preparation of meals, and home sanitation. The D. A. classes are taught to make a complete wardrobe, from a simple piece of underwear to a com- plete graduating outiit. All work in this department is given full credit at O. A. C., a sufficient guarantee of its proiiciency. The needs of the department are many but the most important is a D. A. room. Sewing and cooking in the same room is a condition far from satisfactory to the educated housewife. Manual Training. Manual Training, like domestic economy, had its small beginning three years ago, and has developed into a department of which all connected with the High School are especially proud. The boy begins his work with a free hand sketch. This is followed by the mechanical drawing, after which the object is worked out in wood , and finally the student becomes proficient enough to design and execute large pieces of furniture, such as book-cases, library tables, Morris chairs, and piano benches. The material used for the better pieces of furniture is Japanese oak. Seniors may elect machine or architectural drawing. Again like the domestic department, we are badly in need of more room. , P , , Commercial. At least a rudimentary business education is necessary, not only to the men and women of the business world, but also to those of practically all walks of life. It is with this idea in view that the com- mercial department is maintained in Corvallis High School. The course includes commercial law, book-keeping, typewriting, and the Gregg sys- tem of shorthand, the latter of which has just been introduced this year. Ten typewriters are now in use, but the number will have to be increased, to meet the growing demands of the department. It is also hoped that regular book-keeping tables may be added to the equipment next year. History. The aim of this department is to aid the student in imbib- ing the love of history as a real educative process. Special emphasis is placed upon the evolution of civilization, and the growth and influence of institutions. The usual course in ancient, mediaeval, and modern history is offered, in addition to which American history is required in the Senior year. The work of this department has been much enlivened by the use of lantern slides obtained by the instructor on a recent trip through Europe and the Orient. German. Corvallis has one of the few high schools in the state in which German is offered. The aim of this department is not only to increase the social and commercial advantages of the student, but also to widen his intellectual horizon by introducing him to the life and thought of a great foreign people. The study of grammar is emphasized throughout the first year, and is completed the second year. As the work progresses, increasing prominence is given- to the reading of classics and to composition and conversation. The students of this department look forward to the presentation of a German play as the culmination of the year's work. English. The English department is striving to aid the students in gaining pronciency in the use of' English and knowledgeand appreciation of the best in literature. Much emphasis is placed upon oral, as well as as written expression. Argumentation and brief making receive special at- tention in the Senior year. Literature is taught with the view of getting real pleasure from the study and creating a taste for good reading. Dur- ing the last two years, critical ability is developed as far as possible. The Teaclier's Training Course. This course which is now a part of the work of modern high school, was introduced here last fall. This course includes the following subjects: American history, pedagogy, Oregon school law, course of study, history of education, principles of teaching, a review of, and the study of' methods of teaching, geography, reading, grammar and arithmetic. It also includes instruction in the keeping of the school register, making out reports, observations of work in the eight grammar grades, and some teaching in the grades visited. The training course was not intended, as many people suppose, to take the place of Normal training such as can be acquired only in a thoroughly equipped Normal School. Indeed this fact cannot be too strongly empha- sized. Its aim is to supply such normal training as can be acquired in the high school, and which every person who enters the teaching profession should have the first day the duties of teaching are assumed. It will make the dreaded first day a pleasure to be looked forward to, rather than an experience, approached with fear and trembling. Latin. Latin was offered in Corvallis High School three years ago. In the Latin course proper four credits are required, in the Teacher's Training course two credits. The work includes grammar, four books of Caesar, and prose composition. The study of Latin trains the pupil to think and keeps him in touch with classical education, which the present age is so wont to neglect. The aim is to aid English composition and to familiar- ize the pupil with the Latin roots which form the basis of so large a part of the English vocabulary. Science. VVhen a four years high school course was established here a laboratory was equipped for the use of the science department and about S600 worth of apparatus has been supplied.- This includes a dissectable dynamo, photometer, plunge batteries, and two modern galvonometers. A rapidly growing school now demands more than this, the special needs being more room, more apparatus, and individual desks. Through the study of physical geography freshman students gain a general view of the sciences. During the second year detailed work in botany is done, and students may elect Zoology. In physics, which is the last year of the science work now given, the details of some of the natural phenomena are studied. To complete the course as earnestly desired by the instructor opportunity should be given for the study of chemistry. Mathematics. At the present time there is much discussion concern- ing the practicability of continuing the usual amount of required mathe- matics in the high school. The aim of the Work in both algebra and geome- try should be suflicient reason for demanding a place for them in the school curriculum. In the study of these subjects the purpose is not prim- arily the acquisition of knowledge, but the creation of habits of exact reasoning. While the popular demand is for a useful education, care must be taken that this does not become a narrow education. That course can- not endure, that will give to pupils only that which is utilitarian, excluding the cultural subjects and those whose aim is the development of logical thinking. For the latter, during nearly three thousand years nothing better than higher mathematics has been found, which should be sufficient reason for continuing the course. Departments Needed. Surprising and very commendable progress has been made by Corvallis High School during the short period of its exist- ence, and everyone concerned feels justly proud of what we have and are, but to anyone in close touch with our bright and responsive student body, it is daily apparent that our curriculum is not yet complete. Boys and girls alike are clamoring for a gymnasium and physical edu- cation. Under present conditions some excellent athletes have been de- veloped: but only the well-developed few have received training, While the less fortunate have been neglected. Man's greatest usefulness depends upon his first becoming a perfect animal. A glance at our black-boards at any time Will disclose the lack of training in penmanship, and yet no other art is more quickly acquired, nor of more frequent use. Many a man, seeking a position, can present no other recommendation than the letter he is able to Write. The recent exhibit in the botany department, as Well as cartoons and other drawing occasionally seen by chance, reveal great possibilities in the line of art Work. This might not mean bread and butter to any of us, and yet it might, and anyway, Is not the life more than meat ? Music is another art much to be desired, and we are glad to note a start in that direction this year. Nothing else is more completely satis- fying, nor can anything else lift the soul to brighter realms, than good music, so speed the day when We may have more of it. Educated people are expected to be leaders in their community, and in this connection demands are frequently made upon them to express their thoughts and opinions in publicg therefore public speaking is one of the essentials of education, and it is part of the equipment for life Which ought to be offered to our students. Like the boy in the sugar camp, We have learned that the good things of life, come drop by drop, and We do not expect all these innovations to be introduced next year, but hitch our Wagon to a star and dream of the future of Corvallis High School.

In following up the items given in the society columns of last year's Annual we must not fail to mention the Alumni-Senior banquet, the first' of its kind. After the commencement exercises, the Alumni served a de- licious six course dinner to the Seniors at Coote Hall, which was artistically decorated. Many clever and appropriate toasts concluded the enjoyable event which may well serve as a model for the on-coming ambitious classes. RECEPTION TO NEW STUDENTS. On October 11, 1912, the Senior, Junior, and Sophomore classes gave their annual reception to new students and Freshmen. The H. S. building was gaily decorated in evergreens, ferns and flowers. A short and de- lightful program consisting of speeches, music and readings was rendered, after which the entertainment committee provided each person with a. get acquainted book in which to secure the names of those present. After a pleasant hour spent in this Way, stunts were givenby each of the four classes. The Freshmen easily winning first place by their clever imitation of a Senior, were awarded the grand prize-a lovely box of onions. The appearance of the eats formed a fitting climax to the evenw ing's entertainment and the last echo of This is the best party ever, had scarcely died away when old faithful boomed the mid-night hour. PROF. AND MRS. KIRK'S ANNUAL RECEPTION. The annual reception, given early in the year by Prof. and Mrs. Kirk to new teachers was held this year, as usual, at the High School building. All the teachers of the Corvallis schools and the members of the School Board were invited. The upper halls were fitted up with rugs, chairs, etc., and presented a very homelike appearance. The first part of the evening was spent in listening to a pleasing program in which new teachers as Well as old, were represented. Later in the evening various games were enjoyed and refreshments were served. This is the only time during the year when the entire corps of teachers and the School Board meet in social converse and the occasion is always enjoyed. FACULTY VISITS TAMINIWA SOCIETY. The Thursday before Ha1lowe'en, 1912, the Taminiwas, whose Work for the term was just beginning, invited the faculty to enjoy with them one of their regular programs. The room was artictically decorated in autumn leaves and flowers, and a huge jack-0'-lantern guarded the large table'in the corner, from which dainty and appropriate refreshments were later served. Mr. Applewhite's hat, containing many little grinning Jack- o'-lanterns, was passed and each.teacher gained an insight into her future fortune. An excellent program was rendered and all left declaring the moments spent to have been enjoyable and profitable. FLORENSONIAN'S THANKSGIVING PROGRAM. The Florensonian Society complimented the Taminiwa girls at Thanks- giving time by an open meeting. A splendid program, showing the talent of the Florensonian girls, was given and novel Thanksgiving programs were passed. WEBSTERIAN-FLORENSONIAN JOINT PARTY. A Websterian-Florensonian joint party was enjoyed November 1, 1912, in the High School building, Room 15 was appropriately decorated for a Hallowe'en party. Ghosts received the guests in the dimly lighted hall, conducting them in silence to the fortune teller's booth. After all the guests had assembled the ghosts told a thrilling ghost story. The rest of the evening was spent in various games and stunts Refreshments, suit- able to the occasion, were served. After a iiashlight picture was taken, all departed for home, saying that they had never really enjoyed themselves before. - THE FOOTBALL BOYS ENTERTAINED. The football season for Corvallis High School had just closed and fourteen of the players were monogram men. These, with their coach and managers, were entertained December 14, 1912, by the Taminiwa girls it being the second annual event of the kind. Novel invitations, in the form of footballs in Taminiwa colors, were issued. The halls of the High 'School were decorated in fir boughs, pennants, and cozy corners. New and interesting games were played, after which a dainty three course luncheon was served. Prof. Kirk acted as toastmaster and all departed Miss Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Nichols and Prof. Kirk were the chaperones. AMASAGACIANS ENTERTAIN TAMINIWAS. The annual party of the Amasagacians to the Taminiwas, always looked forward to as one of the best of the year, was given the evening of Jan. 10, 1913, at the High School building. The upper hall was transformed into a cozy, inviting living room, with couches, pillows, pennants and ever- greens every where in evidence. A very unique and interesting program was carried out and enjoyable games played. The long table down stairs looked most inviting and a delightful two course luncheon was served by four alumni Taminiwas. The girls all declared that this party surpassed all former ones, a thing hard to say. MRS. HORNER ENTERTAINERS READING CLUB. I An event worthy of mention was the Twelfth Night supper given by Mrs. B. Horner to the Tuesday Afternoon Reading Club, January 12, 1913, in the Domestic Science room of the C. H. S. The supper, consisting of seven courses, was cooked and prepared entirely by the Senior cooking class. The twelve guests were seated at a large square table spread with snowy linen. The color scheme was red and green, the decorations con- sisting of holly berries and leaves, red candles and shades, and a large Twelfth Night cake surrounded with a wreath of holly and decorated with twelve red tapers, burning. The cake contained the mysterious doll, a token of good luck, and gave sovereign power to the fortunate individual who received it. Interest was rife among the ladies as to who should possess the doll when the cake was cut. Mrs. Woodcock was the lucky one and she was elected queen of the festivities for the evening. JOINT MEETING OF WEBSTERIANS AND FLORENSONIANS. A joint meeting of the Websterian and Florensonian societies was held January 20, 1913. A very pleasing program was rendered by mem- bers from both societies. FLORENSONIANS COMPLIMENTED BY TAMINIWAS. February 13, 1913, the Taminiwa girls returned the compliment of the Florensonians, celebrating St. Valentine's day. The room was artis- tically decorated in red cupids, intermingled with ferns. The Taminiwas Indian corner was also a feature of decoration. Heralded by novel and ap- propriate programs in Florensonian colors, an interesting program was rendered. JOINT MEETING OF TAMINIWAS AND AMASAGACIANS. A joint meeting of the Taminiwas and Amasagacians was held at the beginning of the second semester, in which each society was ably repre-- sented. A varied and excellent program was given, including some rather clever and unique numbers. - FLORENSONIAN'S PLAY. Don't forget the Florensonians have delightful programs, said a visitor one day. Yes, they certainly do and among the most delightful was the play, Mrs Plodding's Nieces, given by eight Florensonians on February 26, 1913. From the pious old maid down to the ambitious mother, all the girls were adapted to the parts and took them well. The members of the Websterian Society, and parents of the members were in- vited guests. . TAMINIWA-AMASAGACIAN PARTY. This year the Taminiwa girls, in their annual party to the Amasagac- ians, gave an Easter entertainment, March 22, 1913. The halls were tastefully decorated with pennants, ferns, daiodils, Indian basekts and wigwams. Rugs were laid and the hall presented a very home-like appear- ance. New and very appropriate games were enjoyed after which the participants repaired to the uniquely decorated tables in the lower hall. Places were laid for about fourty-two and a dainty three course luncheon was served. A flashlight picture was taken of the boys and girls seated at the table. After a number of clever toasts, some music was enjoyed, andt all left, hoping that they might come soon to another such enjoyable par y. TAMINIWA JOLLIFICATION. A jollification was held among the Taminiwas at the home of one of its members, April 11, 1913. Theoccasion was the initiation of two new members who were put through some very ludicrous performances. MISS HANCOCK AND MR. NICHOLS ENTERTAIN CAST. The tediousness of rehearsal for The Senior was broken most agreeably, once by Mr. Nichols entertaining the cast at a theater party, and again by Miss Hancock at a luncheon at Andrews Sz Kerr's. FLORENSONIAN-WEBSTERIAN PARTY. On Friday evening, April 18, 1913, the Florensonians entertained the Websterians at a birthday party. Each guest as greeted with wishes for Many happy returns of the day, and presented with a booklet in the form of birthday greetings. A delightful program was given, after which the evening was spent in various games and stunts A luncheon was served in cafeteria style, the principal part of which was two huge birth- day cakes adorned with candles forming the initial letters of the two so- ciety colors. While refreshments were being served those present in- scribed their names in two birthday books, one to become the property of the Websterians, and the other of the Florensonians. A motion was car- ried that a joint birthday party become an annual affair. MOTHER'S DAY. Feeling that mother would enjoy and should know what they were do- ing in literary work, the Taminiwas gave a Mother's Day program April 10, 1913. Sketches of three great artists were read and each was followed by stereopticon views of some of his best paintings. Recitations, and vocal and instrumental solos were numbers of the excellent program. Roll call answered by quotations, although a regular custom of the society, was made more suitable by quotations concerning mother. Mrs. HOFH61',S kindness in furnishing the stereopticon views of some of the most noted paintings of Europe was appreciated by all. Fragrant cherry and plum blossoms with ferns and the Taminiwa Indian corner brightened the 1'oo1n and helped to make the afternoon a most enjoyable one for all. Among the interesting events outside the regular routine of school work were the Mother's Days given by Mrs. Horner to each of her various classes. On these occasions she showed some of the excellent stereopticon views of the Orient which she acquired while abroad. Most of them illus- trated points in history over which the classes had gone. The room was tastily decorated, music brightened the program and dainty refreshments were served during an informal get-acquainted hour. Mother's Day is now very largely observed every where in our nation. The Florensonian Society observed this beautiful custom Friday afternoon May 10, 1912. A reception committee graciously welcomed the mothers and pinned on each a carnation and bit of fern. The black-board bore record of an artist's touch, for there appeared a beautiful border of car- nations. The members responded to roll call with appropriate quotations referring to mother. The program was in accord with the spirit of the occasion, a number of splendid papers and selections were given. Follow- mg was a social hour and refreshments. may xf, Q'DEBATE'i There are many features of the work done in debate this year that give encouragement to those who are interested in this phase of school life. In the try-out for the two teams, twelve young men took part. There were others who would have participated if they had known what the question was a little earlier in the year. In this try-out six young men were chosen to represent the school in Interscholastic debate. All Who were defeated in the try-out say that they are going to enter the try-out the coming year. The two teams which were picked began strenuous Work of writing briefs and'debate proper. For at least two hours every evening the brains of the debaters were working as hard as possible, under the direction of Miss Marie Church and Rev. D.G. Dunkin. Although we were defeated in our first Interscholastic debate of the year, yet in many ways it was a victory for our school. It gave the de- baters a good deal of practice which resulted in the determination of those taking part to put out still a stronger team next year. During the past year the societies have taken a more active part in debate than ever before. Taking the debate work from all phases, it has a very bright prospect. Forrest Lance Roscoe Parcel Donald Dunkin Alva Starr LITERARY DEPARTMENT Graduation What is so rare as a day in June? Then the sweet graduate bursts into bloom. The flowers are giving their fragrance sweet, While sunshine and shadow are loath to meet. The skies are blue and the soft wind blows, And kisses the cheeks of youth to rose, While hearts are merry and hopes rise high, Tho' for school days gone, there's many a sigh. The four years' work is over at last, The failures forgotten, the triumphs past The daily building of heart and mind, Must other scenes and teachers find. Life calls to youth with beckoning hand, Success seems near and fame looks grand, June's pathway is strewn with flowers sweet And smiles are waiting each one to greet. Its hard to remember that autumn will come That we must prepare for a winter home That clouds will arise that will hide the sun When the glory of June is over and done. But remember too, that 'twill come again, After the storm, and the wind and the rain And that those who are steadfast, courageous, In December's gray, deserve June's blue. and true, -Irene Ollis 13 Springtime in llregon The approach of spring in Oregon is foretold in different ways. In March, the wild geese, knowing that warm weather is coming, fly in great fiocks from their winter home in the south to the north. As spring approaches the weather becomes unsettled, and there is a kaleidoscopic alternation of sunshine and showers. The sudden change in the temperature is surprising in its quicken- ing effects upon the landscape. It is inspiring and animating to witness the first awakening of springg to feel its warm breath stealing over the sensesg to see the earth, moist and mellow from 0regon's rain, beginning to put forth the green sprout and the tender bladeg and the trees and shrubs in their new foliage and flower. The sparrows twitter and ,flutter about the hedgesg a livelier note is heard in the robin's late wintry strain, and the lark, springing up from the swaying blossom of the meadow, soars away into the bright, fleecy clouds, pouring forth torrents of melody. Spring has much the same effect upon man as upon nature. As spring ripens into all its fullness and beauty, man, like flowers, trees, and grass, becomes enlivened and cheerful. There is no contentment in the World like the contentment in spring. It steals like a cool sleep over the senses and teaches the indolent heart that it must feel. With the fresh green grass under-foot and the pale green leaves of the trees overhead, every soul feels a stir of might. For now is the high tide of the year And whatever of life hath ebbed away Comes flooding back with a ripply cheer Into every bare inlet and creek and bayg Now the heart is so full that a drop o'er fills it, ' We are happy because God wills it. -Mary Rorick. WHO ARE THEY? , Who is it stumbles down the hall, With feet that are indeed quite small? But they really weigh a ton or more, - For they're scarce picked up on the floor. Who are the girls with voices low, Who are quite young as we all know, But still are old enough to talk Yet need assistance when they walk? Freshman Student Freshman students oft remind us Of the time when we were green And departing left behind us, Foot-prints, few and far between. Foot-prints, that if ever were followed, Would be found not straight nor true. There are many that if followed Would reveal this statement true. And yet there are freshmen many Who will follow this way still, Through trials of quizzes many, And through the daily drill. Follow it perhaps to Victory, If they do not get caught up By a teacher with a hickory, When the game will sure be up. For 'twill be the whole semester, And they'll surely watch you close, And your life will then be pestered By their presence always close. Guard then Rook, your every action, For your name will sure be mud, If that teacher by conviction Nips your project in the bud. There are many ways of fudging, VVhich in time you will find out By the use of careful judging And an always keen lookout. Cheer up then you Rooky lambling You at last may reach the crest, If you learn the art of cramming A night or two before the test. If you keep your wits about you, You may ride a pony lean, And departing leave behind you Foot-prints few and far between. . . -Wm. Averill '13 H Bigb SCDOOI Gil'l'S Didfll IGI' two IUQQKS Monday. Grand and glorious old blue Monday! Absolutely nothing doing around school except that Miss Keiser had a new dress. The great- est topic of conversation is the play. Tuesday. Had assembly this morning and different members of the Cast gave booster speeches for the play Friday night. They all talked mostly of Beane, old buck-shot, and the third act. Beane is the rook, Paul Kellogg and I suppose he is going to shoot buck-shot with a rubber- band or something like that. Every one laughed when they mentioned the third act. Steve and Evelyn are going to perform some mushy stunt I suppose. Too bad we can't all be leading lady C?J Wednesday. The basket-ball team left to-day on a trip to southern Oregon and school was dismissed early and everybody went to the depot to see them off. The girls all shed big juicy tears, but I didn't have any one more interesting than a brother leaving, so I just laughed. Must be awful to be in love. I never could appreciate the feeling. Thursday. This morning we had singing in assembly. Prof. Gaskins gave us a talk iirst and then he took Miss Rodgers' place as leader. He just rolled it into us. A whole bunch of us girls went across the Wil- lamette after school and just about took Linn Co. by storm. Before we started We bought out the town's stock of peanuts and popcorn and what didn't hit our mouths just right we left in beautiful little rows from Second Street to the Oregon Electric depot. 4 The annual contest is on and the Seniors just simply have to win it. I have sold five perfectly good ones. Friday. Didn't see anything of the play bunch to-day, all home press- ing clothes and painting, I suppose. I am so crazy to see it that I can hardly wait until to-night. Monday. Well, the play is all over and it was pretty good. I guess Steve didn't feel very mushy in the third act. Evelyn ought to have pinched him. It might have made him grab on tighter anyhow. Beane- old Buck-shot was right there and Violet had him goingg all the kids did fine. Nothing interesting happened to-day. Tuesday. This morning when I got to school everybody was out in front of the building gazing upward and when I looked there was our good old '13 painted nice and white again. I am awfully disappointed that there hasn't been a fuss kicked up about it. Wednesday. We had a student-body picture taken this evening for the annual, about half of us had to stand on chairs and I think we each had at least an inch apiece, which ought to have been plenty, but some how we all took our turn at falling off and when one started the rest all got the habit, but finally the gentleman caught us all up at once and pressed the button. The snow is melting off of Mary's Peak and we surely must have some picnics out there. Thursday. There is a notice on the bulletin board that says SEN- IORS: Please approve your photos by noon today. Editor. That seems like the most impossible thing I ever heard of. I wou1dn't be able to ap- prove of mine in ten years. Maybe they want us to approve the work and not the face. That editor doesn't know anything about pictures anyhow. He is interested in a flour mill. After school to-day a bunch of us girls got a skeleton key and went up into the garret and out onto the roof. Didn't do a thing but get green paint all over our shoes and dresses. We are going to have the janitor go up and scratch the green stuff all off so we can have tea parties up there. It's rather slanting for anything juicy though, but it's beautiful to toboggan on. Friday. School is nearly out. Hurray! The baseball team played Albany today and beat them to pieces, just getting even a little. I didn't think they were a very interesting bunch anyhow. Who is the boy both small and class, Who thinks of nothing but his dress Who helps these girls along the hall To keep them from a dangerous fall? Who is the boy with brains of might Who fusses morning, noon and night, Who fusses first one and then another To keep ahead of his young brother? Who is the boy in this institution Who is both an athlete and musician, Who toots a horn for his bread and butter, But thinks a flour mill would be much better? -E. C. '13. Che Bogv of 0ur Balls Listen, my children, and you shallhear Of the red-haired spook fdon't faint, my dearb . Who fusses all over our numerous halls, And has Worn with his shoulders deep groves in our Walls Nay, he is not of the Land of Myth Like Hamlet of Shakespeare or Wicked Macbethg Though he's really and truly a spook, so they say, For there's certain dread corners he haunts every day. For a being Who haunts is surely a ghost, Of course I'm not sure, for I've never been close 3 But he giggles and smiles ina manner so sweet That several fair maids he quite takes of their feet. He causes some mammas to tear at their hair, So attractive is he to their daughters so fair, Others complain to his maternal relation And say they're being driven to nervous prostration. The faculty rose in their Wrath at fussing so Haunted, And declared they would have no more corners so haunted But our spook only smiled in his manner so bland, And swore that no mortal excelled him in sand. And now, my dear children, I leave you to guess, Who this guilty spook is-quite complex, I confess. Is it bird, beast or man, who cares not for rule, Or simply a student of Corvallis High School? -John Wilson '14. GYM! EXDQCIGWGIIS The door opened and in stepped lawyer Hathaway. Good morning Mr. President, he said, Let us go for a walk in the park by the 'East Wing,' and talk about the times we used to have when we went to high school. All right, replied John, but first I must go and tell Beulah that you will dine with us today. This done, they resumed their awlk in the park. ' I wonder what has become of Bubbles Tillery and Bill Johnston, inquired Sap. Well, replied Rudolph, it is a sad, sad tale indeed. Poor Bubbles married a consumptive woman and had to go to Texas, and while there, contracted the disease and died a pauper's death. As for Bill, he is sell- ing life insurance and punching cattle down in Arizona. But say! here's the news! You remember Francis Baum's taking the prize in cross- country when he was a 'Junior' in High? Well, he captured the mara- thon at the last three Olympic Games. They say he had enough wind to fill ten people. You remember that Senior 'Steve?' He married Mildred Prather, for her money of course, and her father disinherited Mildred. Old 'Steve' got one in the neck that time. What do you know about that? Ralph Morgan and Jane Sandon made up again and are married. Morg is athletic trainer at O. A. C. Have you selected your cabinet yet, Mr. Wilson? Yes, replied Sap, and I just got who I wanted, too. Listen! I put Martin Kurtz in as Secretary of State, Clarence King as Secretary of the Treasury, Ralph Beck as Secretary of War, and Ralph Fegley as Postmaster General. Say, what do you think of Cecil Leweaux as Vice-president? Well, Cecil and I always did work together pretty well anyhow, especially when Beulah wasn't around. It hardly seemed possible, when we were going to High, that Fruit would ever be America's greatest poet, did it? But Llewellyn Williams always said Fruit would some day shine in the poetic world. I hear you are offered the position as president of Harvard, Rudolp. I would advise you to accept. Very Well, John, I will take your advice. But say, let's go to the circus this afternoon. Rudolph Nichols' big three ring circus is coming through. Ivan Metzler and Harvey Skow are cheif acrobats, while Harold Tallman leads the trained elephants around, so they tell me. All right, you're on, replied John, but Beulah is expecting us to dinner now, so we had better go, and at two o'clock we'll be off for the circus. J. L. '14, .H DQS' dl KQGYIIW milildflj HCGGQIIIV By a C. H. S. Student Who H as Spent One Year at the Academy. In the cold wee hours of the morning, just about the time the sun be- gins to creep out from behind the distant hills, we hear the squeaking of a door which is just being opened into the main hall, and out steps the sleepy bugler arrayed in bathrobe and slippers, to blow the first morning call, Ten minutes later the Reveille call is blown and now the silence which prevailed during the early hours, is broken, as the half-dressed cadets who have just got up, are hurrying up and down the hall toward the wash-room with their towels, in preparation for breakfast. Assembly is blown and we fall in, the roll is called and then the commanding officers take their respective Companies out on the parade :ground for setting up exercises, which are usually ended by a morning run of about a quarter of a mile. The exercises now ended we are marched 'in to breakfast. During the morning meal we are disturbed by the sleep- -er's gang coming in, which in reality is the cadets who had overslept and were late. They have been given more strenuous exercises than the rest and are glad to be on time the next morning. From the breakast table we are marched out on the parade ground again, for an hour of Infantry drill, after which about half an hour is spent in cleaning up rooms and preparing for Inspection. At 8:45 we are ushered into the chapel from which we take up our recitations at 9:00. At 12 o'clock recall is blown and classes are dismissed for the noon hour. At 12:15 the beautiful notes of Mess Call are welcomed by all and we enjoy dinner with immense appetites. Several of the Cadets who have come in late to dinner, have been making up work which they did not have for their morning classes. After making up class work in this manner, a cadet learns to have his morning recitations well, for he dis- likes to come in late and get the leavings. I Immediately after dinner, the routine of Inspection for quarters is hurried through with, and the cadet finds out at the reading of orders at 3:30 just how effecient or deficient he is in keeping his room clean and in order. He is then informed if he has not kept his window open all day. Classes are resumed at 1:30 p. m. and continued until 3 :30, at which time all Cadets and Officers are summoned to assembly in the drill hall to hear the reading of Orders Here is where the merits and demerits are read off, and occasionally the Adjutant reads special orders promoting or reducing cadet officers, the latter always being listened to with great interest. Those having demerits are formed into single file and marched out to extra duty or Guardmount, which consists of a full ten minutes walk on the toe path or work about the premises for every demerit. This is greatly disliked by the cadets, for should a cadet have about sev- enty-five demerits it would take his spare time for a whole week to get rid of them, and usually while he is getting rid of them he is always getting more. Some cadets have been known to have a thousand demerits but they were of the don't care type. This extra duty is the kind of pun- ishment which is usually in force in all military schools. Assembly is now dismissed and leisure hours last until 5:30. Some boys are seen on their way to town, fwhich permission they can get twice a week and also on Saturday afternoonsj others are participating in athletic sports, and out in front of the main hall we see the weary looking extra duty sqaud trudging away their apportioned time on the toe path, or bull ring as it is called by the Cadets. At 6:00 o'clock Cadets in dress uniform are marched to supper, after which a dress parade is held during the Spring months. We are lined up at 7:30 and marched to study-period which lasts to 9:30. Here is where we get our lessons for the next day. Study period now being ended the Cadets are very glad to go to their rooms and retire. At 9:45 the bugle corps assembles on the parade ground near the flag start' to peal forth the beautiful notes of Tattoo Promptly at 10:00 o'clock the chief bugler blows the last call of the day, a call which signifies that the day's work is done and that it is time to rest. This call is TAPS. The last thought in the minds of the Cadets before arriving in slumber- land is there are yet so many more days before vacation. E. A. M. '13, TAPS. Bugle blow, sweet and low Hear the call, through the hall Goodnight all, Echo seems to recall Peaceful dreams. -21 ANNUAL STAFF 55- Editor-in-chief . . . Assistant Editor .

There were only four of us besides the driver, the other members being unable to go. About twelve miles from Corvallis wecame upon a lone store. The driver wanted a couple of cigars so the two boys of the party volunteered to make the purchase. A young lady came forth as We entered and Mr. Moses said, Have you any cigars ? The girl answered in the affirmative but made no eiort to get them. Mr. Moses then ner- vously said, Ah, 'er, got any Tom Keene's ? This woke up the lady clerk and she took down a much worn box from a shelf and slowly picked out two cigars. A About six o'clock we arrived in Monroe, and after we had sat by the grate fand it sure was greatl in the hotel, and warmed our feet fwe all had cold feetj we went out and bought some crackers, cheese and bologna to eat on our way home. We then had supper and it certainly was a grand feed, and for this we are indebted to Everett's forethought in engaging the meal before we left Corvallis. When the hotel people heard that we were coming they prepared a chicken supper especially for the High School Orchestra. We were treated like Kings, when it came to the Heats. We even had green onions, but of course none of us ate any, although one member wanted to put them in her hand bag and eat them on our homeward trip. The concert was held in the assembly hall of the High School build- ing, which was filled to its capacity. The audience was very attentive, ex- cept on one occasion when Superintendent Cannon had to speak to some fussers in the back of the room. One piece especially pleased them, and that was Everybodj's Doing It. The Merry Widow Waltz was also applauded, but the hit of the evening was the cornet solo' Evening Star rendered by Mosie. . After the concert we had some hot coffee and pie, to warm us up for our long, cold drive. On the way home we occupied our time in eating our lunch and running along the road to keep up our circulation. One girl even passed the last four or tive miles of the trip in slumberland. At 2:30 a. m. we arrived in Corvallis cold, tired and sleepy, but surely no one regretted the trip. H. R. S. '14.

A few loyal students had prepared the sawdust Held the previ- ous week, so that everything was in readiness for work. With the major- ity of last year's team and a large turnout of new material, our prospects were very bright for a winning team, so the boys settled down to faithful practice. After training for several weeks with little or no coaching, the boys prepared for their first game. On the fifteenth of October, our team boarded the morning train for Eugene, to play a game with the Eugene High School at the Oregon Electric Celebration. The game was called at two o'clock, and for about Hve ,minutes after the whistle blew, our boys advanced the ball to Eu- gene's fourteen-yard line, where it was lost on a fumble. Eugene failed to make yardage through the line, then Ross, Eugene's speedy halfback tore around the end with perfect interference and down the Held for a touchdown. By straight football our team was by far the best, as it worked the ball clear down the Held for a touchdown in the last quarter, but Eugene's excellent coaching and experienced players won the game. The Hnal score was 44 to 6. This somewhat discouraged our boys but they saw their weak points and made ready for the next game. Red Walters of O. A. C. was secured as coach, and he immediately began to whip the team into shape. October twenty-sixth we sent our team into a pigskin scramble, with rhe O. A. C. Interclass Champions, the Freshmen. After seven minutes of play, a forward pass from Beach to Fegley netted us a touchdown. We failed at the goal, so the score stood 6 to 0 in our favor. From then on through the whole game the ball was carried up and down the field in a zig-zag fashion, neither team getting close enough to the goal to score. The team journeyed to Independence on the second of November, an'd returned with another victory, by the score of 20 to 0. The game was rather loose in places and the team should have made a larger score, but contented itself with the victory. After being beaten only 7 to 0 by the Albany High School, the Leb- anon High School team came over to Corvallis for a game with us on the ninth of November. By quick, snappy playing our team ran off with a touchdown in exactly three minues of play. Forward passes worked to perfection and Feg crossed the goal line several minutes later for an- other touchdown. Beach, Sprague and Schuster tore through the oppos- ing line for large gains and before the end of the quarter, the opponents' line had been crossed twice more. Beach failed at three goals but the score was 25 to 0 at end of Hrst quarter. The second quarter was almost a continuation of the first. Forward passing and line smashing played the visitors oi their feet. Feg and Mush Calvin carried several more complete passes across the goal line, while Pa Beach ripped into the Lebanon line and smuggled in another six points. With two successful kicks during this period and three touchdowns the first half ended 44 to 0 in our favor. With almost a second team playing for us the rest of the game, the score was advanced to 64. The punting of Pa Beach was a feature as well as the long passes to Feg and Mush . Steve Schuster and Johnny Sprague also stood out as stars of the game, for their end runs and line smashes were dazzling. With our team in fairly good shape, with the exception of Dutch Harper, who had his shoulder hurt in practice, our team went down to McMinnville, with a determination to surprise the Northerners. The game was exciting from start to finish with the honors about even, neither team being able to score on the other, until within the last seventy sec- onds of the game, when McMinnville executed a hidden ball trick which gave them 7 points. This play had been protested by our team before the game, but when the Northerners saw their chance, they played it to a fine advantage. The boys were entertained in the evening by a reception at the high school. On Thanksgiving day, the Albany High School sent its team over to play us. The game was called before a crowd of about six hundred. Albany kicked off to our twenty-yard line, and after several attempts around the end, our player fumbled the ball which was recovered by thc Albany lads. By several end runs the pigskin was carried to within five yards of the goal line. Abraham, the Albany giant, went over on the next trial for a touchdown. The goal was successfully kicked and the score stood 7 to 0 for the visitors. The honors during the rest of that quarter and the second quarter were about even. Forward passes failed to work, so we resorted to line bucking which netted us gain after gain until Schuster, Morgan and Sap Wilson were injured and had to be replaced. The serpentine between halves was a feature. The column, headed by the yell-leader, and six assistants who carried a black casket, was an amusing event. After encircling the field several times the rooters formed and gave several yells, after which they left the field. The pall- bearers then opened the casket, out of which ran about a dozen cats, bear- ing our colors. The game was now resumed, and playing on both sides was terrific, with our boys turning off' the onslaughts of the fast, heavy Albany back-field. The opponents went through our crippled team for ,another touchdown, but missed the goal. In the last quarter Feg in- tercepted several forward passes for the visitors and made good gains. Abraham then carried the ball down the field by stages for Albany, and then by some rough playing managed to place the oval sphere just across the line. The game ended in favor of Albany, 20 to 0. This game ended the season. Much credit is given to the scrub eleven for helping develop our team. Russell Feemster, yell-leader, and his band of rooters deserve 4, special mention for the encouragement that they gave the team.. Several yell meetings and rallies were held during the year and enthusiasm ran high, E. A. M. '13, SCORES. , Opponents .C H. S. Eugene High School ........ .... 4 4. 6. O. A. C.

One of the fastest teams was developed that has thus far been produced in the Willamette Valley. The team was handicapped the first part of the season on account of not having a coach, which was probably the cause of the team's losing the first game with Independence. With the assistance of Grover' Cate as Coach the team made a marked improvement and could hold its own with nearly any high school in the state. The first game of the season was played on Jan. 17, with Independ- ence High School at Independence. The fellows lacked team work but fought all the time. The trip was made by Clum, Farmer, Wagner, Schuster, Cap't Fegley, Wilson, Calvin, King, manager Rudolph Nichols and faculty member A. R. Nichols. The score was 22 to 2 in favor of Independence. The next game played was with Lebanon on our fioor, Jan. 29. The Lebanon team was out classed and our boys showed fine team work. The score was 41 to 5 in our favor. The real test of ball in our class was with Newberg High School on our fioor Feb. 7. The boys had plenty of snap and the squad was strength- ened by Ferd Cate. The team was encouraged by the attendance of a num- ber of High School students. The score was 29 to 16 in our favor. About the hardest game of the season was with Dallas, Feb. 15. p This was a hard fight from start to finish. Cap't Fegley, Ben Calvin, Butts Rearden, Johnny Sprague and Toots Cate played the whole game. The score was 10 to 8 in our favor. Feb. 22, we reaped revenge on Albany by out-playing them all around. A feature of the game was the excellent team work. The score was 31 to 8 in our favor. On Feb. 26, Independence came over, confident as on a pleasure trip, and claiming State Championship, but they soon changed their minds after the game was started. Our team took the pep out of them and played hard. The score was 19 to 15 in our favor. The best and longest trip of the season was taken through southern Oregon, where the boys made a favorable impression upon the people of that locality and gained a reputation for themselves and their school. The team made a creditable showing under the circumstances and Cap't Feg- ley and his team are to be congratulated on their work. The trip was made without a faculty member andthe team deserves credit for their strict discipline. The first game on the trip south was with Roseburg, March 5. The boys played in a hall with a ceiling only twelve feet high, and only six lights with no out of bounds. The boys were lost and could not find each other, but played all the harder because of these difficulties. The score was 26 to 8 in favor of Roseburg. The team arrived in Ashland March6, after travelling from five a. m. to twelve-thirty p. m. With spirits animated by royal treatment all after- noon the fellows were ready for a good game. Just before they took the floor a telegram from the student body was read to them and they surely fought. Feg got the jump on his man over half the time, which is some honor when you consider the man he played against. The first half was seven to seven, but the final score was 22 to 11 in favor of Ashland High School. K Supported by twenty-five Ashland felloWs,'We trounced Medford. The fellows displayed great team work and played hard. Mush was a Grand- stander while he watched his man throw a spectacular basket. Butts shut out his man and played a great game. The score was 27 to 14 in our favor. On Feb. 14 the team went to Dallas to play them a return game. They were confident of victory but our fellows played great ball. The first half was 7 to 6 in our favor. In the second half Ferd Cate was hurt and had to go out of the game, which gave Dallas the lead. The score was 16 to 12 in favor of Dallas. In the last game of the season, which was played at Newberg, we were handicapped by a small floor. The fellows were tired but played with good spirit to the end. Just before the game was called, the boys received a telegram from Coach Cate, who was on his honeymoon in Portland. This encouraged the team immensely and they played a great game. Newberg won by a score of 24 to 19. The members of thepteam and their respective positions are as follows: Center-Cap't Fegley. Forward-Sprague. Forward-Cate. Guard-Calvin. Guard-Rearden. Subs-King and Wilson. The season was successful not so much in games won as in the spirit of manliness shown by the players. The hotel keeper in Newberg told the Manager that she never had a more gentlemanly lot of boys stay at her hotel than they. This is the right spirit and such teams will always have the undivided support of our high school. 4 AGN-TRPllNlNGf g Egg, E fr if fig! Ver a . 'f fy'?:.gy' .

This form of athletics is becoming more firmly established each year and will in a few years be equal to the other forms of athletics in this High School. The boys have been handicapped this year to a certain extent on account of the late rains, which made it impossible to practice. The team has progressed rapidly under the coaching of Kenneth Col- bert, who has had a few years of experience with some of the best teams in this part of the country. Ray Price, captain of the team, deserves a great deal of credit for his energetic and earnest work. He has performed his duties faithfully both as Captain and as a member of the team. As a new man at the game George Spence is worthy of a few words of praise. He made his start with the Crescent Stars, a well known team in this vicinity. Waldo Ball is another new man who has made a creditable showing and will probably be out next year stronger than ever. Other new material on the team are Earl Schuster, Ben Calvin, and Mil- ford, Archibald, all of whom have made good. It is hardly necessary to mention the ability of the old players as we all know what they can do. The first game of the season was at Lebanon. The boys had to play on a muddy field which was not a very good start for them, nevertheless they made a splendid showing and won the game. The score was eleven to nine in favor of C. H. S. The batteries for the home team were Spence, Farmer and Calvin. The next game of the season was played on the home ground May 2, against Albany High School. This was the best game of the season. The team was greatly strengthened in this game by Charlie Moore, who played an excellent game, and also by the fine twirling of George Spence. The High School students showed a great deal of enthusiasm in this game by having a large crowd in attendance. The High School band conducted by Mr. Wright, an organization of which students and the people of Corvallis are proud, came out in full force to furnish sweet strains of music which added to the pleasure of the game. This music by the band encouraged the boys and led them on to victory with a score of nine to four. On May 16, the team met Albany on their field, where a hard game was played. While the game ended with the score in favor of Albany, praise-Worthy mention can well be made of Captain Price and Ferd Cate. THE TEAM. Catcher-Ex-Captain Charles Moore Pitcher-Lloyd Farmer ..

Our team this year is the strongest in the history ofthe school, although our weak spot was in the weight events. Lloyd R. Farmer was captain and Everett A. Moses manager. The season was started with cross-country running, and on March 17 the interclass cross-country run was held in which the Juniors won out by taking first and third, while a Senior won second place. Frances Baum won the run of three miles in 18 minutes and 15 seconds. Edward Axtell took second and John Rollins third. A gold medal was presented to the winner. The Juniors also won the Interclass meet with 59 points, the Freshmen were second with 54, the Seniors third with 14 and the Sophomores last with 4 points. In this meet the monogram track men were not allowed to compete. ' Our first meet of the season was the annual Columbia University Indoor Meet in Portland on April 12th. Everett Moses and Lloyd Farmer represented our school in this meet and made a very fine showing by capturing second place in the Academic or High School meet and fourth place in the Open or College meet. We made four points in the Academic events and six in the Open events. Everett Moses sprang a surprise in the hurdle race by almost defeating' Martin Hawkins, the Olympic hurd- ler, forcing him to the tape in the fast time of six and three-fifths sec- onds. Mosie placed second also in the Academic hurdle race and the Academic fifty-yard dash. He established an Interscholastic Indoor rec- ord of six and three-fifths seconds in the hurdles and equalled Johnny Baker's mark of live and three-fifths in the fifty-yard dash. Pete Farm- er gzained recognition by defeating all the college and University athletes in the pole vault crearing the bar at ten feet and nine inches, although he took second to Holdman of Multnomah Club. His mark raised the C. H. S. record by three inches. On April 19 Salem High School came to Corvallis for an Indoor meet with our team and went home defeated by the close score of 63 to 54 points. This meet decided the Interscholastic Indoor Championship of the Willamette Valley. Jig Felton Won the 440 in the fast time of 55 and 3-5 seconds equalling his high school record. In the 50 yard low hur- dles Moses established a new record of 6 and 2-5 seconds, and also equalled his records in the high hurdle event and the fifty-yard sprint. Lloyd Farmer broke the high school record in the shot put with a toss of 37 feet and 2 inches. Our relay team composed of Rearden, Morgan, Felton and Moses won the relay in 1 minute and 4-5 seconds, lowering our school record. We met the O. A. C. Freshmen on April 25 and were defeated' 66 to 56 points. Pete Farmer sent the school record glimmering in the javelin throw with a heave of 120 feet 5 inches. Pete also won the high jump and pole vault easily from the Freshman C'varsityJ jumpers. Everett Moses ran off with the century dash in 10 and 2-5 seconds, breaking our school record by one-fifth of a second. A feature of the meet was the winning of all places by us in the sprints and of all places by the Hooks in' the distances. Rearden won the 220 yard dash and Mosie easily won the hurdles. After being shut out for most of the race Felton forged out into a pretty sprint at the straight away and won a close sec- ond in the 440. Our realay team won by ten yards. We were badly defeated at the hands of the Eugene High School on May 2nd, the score being 105 for Eugene and 35 for us. Pete Farmer was not in the meet because of injuries, and because of this we lost a good many points. As usual Everett Moses won the hurdles for us. In the 440 yard event Jig Felton ran a gritty race against the Eugene champion and won a close second. Butts Rearden was shifted to the hurdles to 'dll in Farmer's place. He ran well and placed second in the high hurdles and would have placed second in the low hurdles but he fell, then man- aged to get third. Ralph Morgan's running in the 220 yard dash and the relay was very creditable. Our relay team lost their race by a narrow margin, and if they had not been overworked in the diiferent events, a vic- tory would have been most likely. Edward Axtell ran well in the mile and took second. In the Oregon State Interscholastic meet at Eugene, under the aus- pices of the University, our men qualifying in the preliminaries in the morning were: Rearden in the 100 yard dash, Morgan in the 220 yard dash, Bonner in the 440 yard dash, Hopkins in the 880, Moses in the high and low hurdles, and Farmer in the high jump, pole vault and javelin. In the finals that afternoon Moses ran in the lead in the high hurdles until the last hurdle when he lost his step, but almost tied with Muirhead of Columbia University at the tape. His time was 16 and 2-5 seconds, which breaks the C. H. S. record by two-fifths of a second. In the low hurdles Moses slipped and fell on the last hurdle when he was about to win the race. Farmer won third in the javelin with a throw of 128 feet 8 inches, also breaking the C. H. S. record. Our team went to Chemawa on May 15 for a dual meet with the Chemawa Indian School. The Indian braves handed us a defeat of 91 to 29 points. They had every event almost their own way except the hur- dles in which we won 15 out of a possible 18 points. Moses, Rearden and Farmer placed first, second and third respectively in the low hurdles and sprung a surprise on the redskins. Moses won the high hurdles with Butts Rearden third. In the 440 yard dash Jig Felton showed the Indians that he was not as slow as he looked, and crowded the Indian champion to the finish in 54 and 2-5 seconds. Our relay team did not run as we had to leave the field and catch the train. Cap't Farmer won second in the high jump and pole vault, and took third in the broad jump. High school stars from all over the state were invited by Dr. Stewart, of O. A. C., to take part in the All-Star track meet at O. A. C. on May 19. vi bv P' Q N Ii rl: bf S C. H. S. was represented by Farmer, Moses, Rearden, and Felton, who won for our school second place in the meet. Moses, who had quit train- ing, went into the meet and won both hurdles, and broke two records. In the 120 yard high hurdle race Mosie outran the College hurdlers in the fast time of 15 and 3-5 seconds, breaking the Northwest Interscholastic record. The world's record for high school athletes is only two-fifths of a second faster. In the 220 yard low hurdle event Moses won easily in 26 seconds, breaking his own record of 26 and 4-5 seconds. He also Won second place in the broad jump. Lloyd Farmer ,won third inthe broad jump, and Butts Rearden took second in the low hurdles. These places- gave us 17 points and second in the meet. Moses won the individual hon- ors as highest point winner, with Baker of 0 A. C. second. This is the last meet in which Everett Moses and Lloyd Farmer represent.C. H. S., as they graduate this year. The teams scoring in this meet were as follows: O. A. C., 76 points, C. H. S., 17 points, Washington High School of Port- land, 13 points, Chemawa Indian School, 12, and St. Johns High School, 8. points. TRACK MEETS. Salem High School os. Corvallis High School.
