THE SPECTATOR Eehiratinn The Spectator takes pleasure in devoting a part of this numberto a question of vital import- ance at the present time-the Bond Issue for the Johnstown School Building Program. We hope that the importance of this project will impress itself on the mind of each and every reader. iqnm the Bight Svrhnnl Glam Help Supt. H. J. Stockton What we have longed for and hoped for during the past several years is now within our power to reach forth and grasp. The Board of Education have decided to submit to the voters a request for the authorization of 32,000,000 for erecting new schools as outlined in the School Building Pro- gram of 1917. Careful and conservative figures show that the district is 2,500 pupils behind in its building program. As the enrollment increases the conditions are aggravated. The enrollment increased this year 350 pupils or ten rooms. The normal increase of enrollment is 2 to 3 per cent, so that on a 10,000 enrollment, such as we have, an increase of 200 to 300 a year may be expected. Our increase of rooms should keep pace. .If I were asked what interest a high school pupil should take in this matter, I would say he has both a present and a future interest. Every high school pupil has a present in- terest in that bond issue provides for a new high school. It will also provide for several new grade buildings, and for a complete junior High School system that will benefit the younger brothers and sisters of High School pupils. It ought to be characteristic and from my experience is characteristic of the High School pupil that he enthusiastically supports better educational opportunities for brother and sister. The older brother or sister is a kind of second father or mother in this respect. The possibilities of a new high school ought to fire every boy and girl to the highest pitch of enthusiastic ardor. The present building served its purpose well in its day but it now belongs to a past era. In the first place it is crowded beyond all reason. The conversion of every possible room into class rooms has largely served to stave off the in- 6 THE SPECTATOR itiation of a new building operation. Let us enumerate the expedients that have been resorted to, usually with reluctance, to find more enrollment capacity in the High School. Two assembly rooms were gained by equipping the physics and chemistry lecture rooms with desks. Three assembly rooms were gained by arranging for seating in the biological labor- atories. Three basement assembly rooms in the original build- ing were gained by removing the manual training to the new south wing. Later, manual training was removed to the Casino and four more new assembly rooms were gained. By cutting off an end of the original mechanical drawing room a new assembly room was gained. By ejecting the High School Spectator from its ofiice and by transferring the dental dis- pensary to the Swank Building two small class rooms have been gained. By taking out a boys' toilet on the 400 floor and a girls' toliet on the 100 floor, two new assembly rooms were gained. By substituting desks for tables in the cafe- teria, additional assembly rooms were improvised. By re- moving the School Board and administrative offices to ,the Swank Building, rooms 209 and 307 were gained for assem- bly purposes. The auditorium is daily used for class room purposes. In all, since 1912, by utilizing every possible room for assembly and class purposes, we have added twenty-one rooms. These expedients have permitted an increase of 600 pupils to the enrollment. In many cases the improvisations have been wise. There should be economy of space in school buildings. But a High School should have something else besides class rooms. To drive out all manual activities, for instance, tends to make a one-sided school and over-empha- sizes books as a medium of education. There should be, also, plenty of unused space to permit of flexibility of pro- gram and school activities. Every teacher should have a definite home room where she may accumulate the neces- sary accessory and illustrative material that will make her teaching more interesting and more concrete. The day is THE SPECTATOR 7 coming when class rooms will be lined with bookshelves, with cases, and material racks, so that real supervised study may be broadly and scientifically done. In the second place, the present high school does not answer the demands made by the accepted standards of the new education. The Modern High School takes cognizance of all the children of all the people. It is democracy's school. It is just as much a universal school as the elementary school. It must provide types of activity just as varied in its intellectual and skill elements as life itself. It must make its appeal not only to the noviti- ates of the learned profession but also of the skilled trades, agricultural and commercial pursuits. Such a high school must be built to make its manifold varied curricula possible. The modern High School also must make ample pro- vision for the health training of its pupils. There should be spacious grounds for games and motivated bodily activities. There should be both boys' and girls gymnasium and a com- modious swimming pool. After school hours these and other facilities should be thrown open for the use of the employed boy and girl and for the parents. There are other possibilities of the Modern High School such as Normal School Training, Junior College Training, Continuation Courses, etc., that an adequate building will provide. Are not these things worth striving for? Should they not enlist every boy and girl with something of the Crusader spirit to bring them to pass? Surely that boy or girl's finer sensibilties and aspirations must be dulled whose impulses do not glow with an overpowering warmth, in con- templation of this program. The High School boy or girl has a future interest in this bond issue and its success. Our school problems have been accumulating. You soon will be shouldering the burdens of civic responsibilities. Do you want this accumulating process to continue into your day until you face problems of dimen- sions that inspire only hopelessness and despair? You have 8 THE SPECTATOR your right to insist on each day and era bearing its own burdens. . No one knows better than myself the power of a pur- poseful solidified sentiment in the High School. It is a sen- timent that usually gets things. What can I do, you ask, for the Bond Issue? You can post yourself in every pos- sible way. You can build up sentiment among yourselves that will become a vital force of public opinion. You can convince others. You can write arguments that can be used in the campaign and which will clarify and render logical your own point of view. You can pass along suggestions to those in charge of the campaign. You can draw posters for window display. You can disseminate information through handbills, pamphlets, and your own fund of knowledge among the voters. To youth we look for the spirit of progress and enter- prise. You above all should be partisans of a better and big- ger Johnstown. In you hope, optimism, courage, ambition surges with an abandon of ardor. Thow yourself heart and soul in this great cause, for you will win. XXX its XWX THE SPECTATOR 9 Elin Emu illllillinn Bnllar Munn EBZIIP Wilbert C. Wehn, 19M The building program, adopted on June 25, 1917, by the Board of School Directors, has finally gone a step toward realization, thru the action of that same board to increase, with the sanction of the voters, the bonded indebtedness of the city S2,000,000, the money so bonded to be used for the betterment of the educational facilities of our city. Though the amount is large in itself, it is not a desperate undertaking, nor too ambitious for a progressive city like Johnstown, when the building operations of other cities are taken into consid- eration. Buffalo has authorized S8,000,00 for school purposes, Detroit, S3,292,000g Minneapolis, S4,750,000, and Harrisburg, 31,225,000 The need for such increase is imperative. The school authorities are facing a crisis which permits of absolutely no dalliance. A comprehensive, conservative building pro- gram is the only outlet from prevailing, threatening condi- tions, and such a program has been adopted and is now call- ing for the support of the people of Johnstown and the stu- dents in its schools. There are at present seventy-one rooms inadequately equipped, inadequately ventilated, and inadequately heated, housing 2,130 pupils, or about 15.522 of the school enroll- ment in 1918. Some of these rooms are single rooms, par- titioned so as to make two roomsg others are basement and hall rooms, and one whole building is artificailly lighted. Besides these, an abandoned school house and a store room have been put into operation. The schools at this time are alarmingly crowded. The Vocational School is accommodating its maximum number of pupils. The High School houses about 17.872 more than its comfortable capacity. The Garfield junior High, thru the elimination of the industrial shops to the Twentieth Ward Vocational Building, can hold out one more year. A platoon system is in use in the primary grades whereby a teacher 10 THE SPECTATOR has one class for outdoor recreation work while the other recites. Under this system, in winter where can accommo- dations be had for those who would ordinarily have outdoor recreation, but will be restrained from doing so on account of weather conditions? Half-time classes are looming omi- nously close. A conservative estimate of the population of Johnstown now is 82,000, a growth of 4826 since the 1910 census. Con- sidering a 2571 increase each decade, we may safely look forward to a population of 128,000 in 1938. These are sane, hard figures, and cannot be dodged. This will affect the school population so that from an enrollment of 13,912 last year, the enrollment in 1938 may be expected to exceed 21,- 400. It is a cold, hard fact that every year there are more entrants into the schools as beginners than there are gradu- ates. Last year, the first primary enrollment was 1,063, while the graduates numbered 636, leaving an excess of 427 pupils. Such an excess to look forward to next year means at least fourteen rooms of thirty pupils each, barring prob- able larger classes and withdrawals. Where are housing fa- cilities to be had and thru them educational facilities? Y A haphazard, here-and-there housing expedient is at best only a makeshift. While it may somewhat relieve that lo- cal crisis, it will not bring general relief and in the end be- comes a liability thru its uneconomical construction, ineffi- cient organization, and inadequate teaching equipment. The building program, as adopted by the board, provides for the completion of the Cochran junior High School, a new Central High School, Industrial Building in the central part of the city, Morrellville junior High School, Walnut Grove Elementary School Building, completion of Chestnut Street Building, auditorium, gymnasium, and swimming pool for fourth, fifth, and sixth grades, shower baths for primary grades, and an administration and supply building. In order to consummate this program, it must be financed. This financing may be done either of two ways prescribed THE SPECTATOR 11 by Pennsylvania law. Bonds may be issued or the entire burden thrown on the taxpayers. The bond issue is to be the method resorted to in financing the adopted program, and to put this bond issue thru, it will be necessary to en- lighten the public as to the dire necessity of its support. Realizing that the cost of ignorance is greater than the cost of education, the School Board is endeavoring to place the entire matter unreservedly before the voters. The question of more buildings and more adequate edu- cational facilities is not debatable. It must go ahead. The Government invades the sacred right of a parent over his child in only one respect, that of compelling the child to go to school. And in making such invasion, the Government must guarantee that the child will be taken care of just as well in the trusteeship of the State as it would be in its mother's arms. Unless immediate action is taken on this building program, the school authorities will soon be forced to waive that guarantee. This question of immediate action is one which the voters of Johnstown must decide. The necessity of action is obvious. It is the duty of every student in the Johnstown schools, and especially in the High School, to propagate this issue. Every High School student should acquaint himself with the preceding facts and boost the program to the ut- most. It is the High School student of today as well as the student of tomorrow who will receive the benefits of such added facilities. Every student should bring his influence to bear upon his parents and voters, so that early consumma- tion of the outlined program will be their most cherished wish. Such early consummation will be realized only thru the sanction of the voters, which sanction will be granted thru an ,X in the proper square on the ballot of the general election in November. 12 THE SPECTATOR PRINCIPAL'S PAGE Flhv Euan 3155112 anh High Svrhnnl Manila That opportunities for education may not be cramped for those who may later attend Johnstown High School, let each pupil encourage the success of the bond issue which is designed to permit building expansion. The present high school building has served a noble purpose, and it is with no thought of disparagement that we seek expansion, but rather that the present plant has so justified its construction that it stands itself as the strongest argument for a bigger, better, more modern building, that every opportunity may be available for the development of student activities. As pupils come daily in contact with conditions in the high school, all should inform themselves of circumstances and be prepared to talk to others convincingly in support of a project which is vital to thousands of future citizens of Johnstown. Base your plea on a comparison with building facilities in other communities. Base your plea on a request of selfishness for intellectual development. Base your plea on an altruistic foundation, that those who come after you may have even greater opportunities for an education than you have had. Base your plea on a protest against congested halls, against an auditorium inadequate to accommodate the entire enrollment at one time, against unsanitary, poorly ventilated class rooms, against the limiting of library expan- sion, against inadequate Science laboratory facilities, against cramped gymnasium and locker room accommodation. Con- sider the future of five years hence, and having confidence in the growth of your town and development of your high school, boost vigorously the bond issue which will permit a more healthy environment and a greater high school than we have yet known. By your act, make it easier and more desirable for pupils to attend Johnstown High School in the future. Boost.

The copper sun shone down upon the narrow, crowded streets of Jerusalem. It was nearly midday and the merchants, venders and peddlers were packing up their wares and moving on to where they could receive food. Mule trains began to stir and passed from the market square. All business had ceased but one, and that the slave auction. In the center of the place stood an old Jew surrounded by a crowd of people. Those with their hands tied behind their backs were the slaves, but the customers wore a rich and wealthy aspect. The old jew called gruffly to one of his asso- ciates and presently a young girl of about Hfteen years was brought to him. He pulled her harshly along and placed her on a high stone. How much do I get for this handsome damsel ? he be- gan in his coarse way. She is of Jewish parentage, knows well how to work in the home and fields. Her name is Esther, a noble name. How much do I get for her? Various petty sums were offered. All the time the maiden 14 THE SPECTATOR stood with bowed head and flushed cheeks. It was humiliat- ing to her to be placed before the people as an object of scorn. just when the auctioneer was becoming quite earnest in his praises, desirous of receiving a larger sum, a gentleman halted before the market. Besides his own family he had with him a large retinue of slaves. I-Ie glanced at the girl standing so shame-facedly before the people, and as he did so she looked up appealingly, her large brown eyes filled with unhappy tears. The man seemed pleased with the picture he saw. For Esther was of the brunette type and very much fairer of face than the people of that district. Her dark, heavy locks, drawn back from her face, hung in two thick braids down her back. Of an olive tinge was her complexion, with just a tinge of pink in the cheeks. She was very beautiful in her way, and the fact that she wore poor clothing rather enhanced her at- tractiveness. 'fI'll take her for fifty pieces of silver, spoke the gentle- man. The old jew agreed without delay. Esther was placed upon a mule and started on her journey to her new home. A After hours of riding the caravan arrived at a large estate. Here her master sent for her. As she stood waiting without the door she heard voices. But, father, you will never allow her, a slave, to dwell under this roof, will you? Shall I, your daughter, with honor- able heritage, associate with her, a slave-with no parentage at all? Ihope not. Oh! father, please I Listen, daughter Ashca. I have purchased her because she is so young and pitiful. I cannot turn her away. And see she, too, looks for the arrival of the Messiah. Docs not our great Moses decree us to protect and care for such? Now, you understand. After a silence Ashca replied: I understand, but you can at least yield this point. Make her work in the vineyard. Ashca left the room as Esther entered. The interview was not long. Esther was assigned duties in the vineyards. She was told that her master was Merchant Kemuel, the wine maker, renowned throughout Palestine. THE SPECTATOR 15 The following day Esther began her work. She toiled from sunrise until dark among the vines and, as she lay down to sleep, she was awakened by a voice: Awake, you lazy slave. Do you not know that it is time for evening worship? Come, before you reported to the judges. ' It was Ashca who spoke so rudely. Esther followed with hurried footsteps. Each day Esther labored hard and at even- ing attended the services. Each day Ashca strove in some way to insult her. At the end of a month she was sent to the upper vineyard. There grew the choicest grapes and she felt happy to think that she could tend them there. The upper vineyard was situated on a cliff overhanging the gardens and one could not be reached from below without ascending the steps in the wall. Esther worked with a will and was just thinking how happy life was when suddenly she was startled by a sound from behind. She turn-ed quickly and beheld Ashca staring at her arrogantly. What are you doing here ? demanded Ashca. I thought you were in the lower vineyards. I was assigned here today, answered Esther. Go at once to the other fields and do not return again. Go, I say, without question, Ashca ordered. I was sent by Master Kemuelf' Haughty girl! You forget that you are only a slave. What right have you to dispute my word ? Esther did not answer, but stood trembling as Ashca, turning, went down the steps to the gardens. After she had gone Esther straightened like a goddess. She was not the humble slave. She stamped her foot and cried, Why can't I be as other girls and have the same privi- leges ? In her anger she kicked violently at a large, jagged rock beside the path and it went hurling down over the cliff. A shriek pierced the air which froze the blood in Esther's veins. With frightened heart and nervous tread she descended 16 THE SPECTATOR the stairs into the garden below. Here, amid the bushes, lay Ashca, a great gash in her temple from which the blood gushed. Esther tried to arouse her, but discovered that the heart which had been so cold towards her had ceased to beat. Then she thought of herself. It was she who had kicked the stone down over the cliff. Merchant Kemuel would accuse her of murder and the avenger of blood would take her life in the most horrible way possible. What should she do? Where was there safety? She heard other slaves returning from the fields. She hid from their sight, creeping stealthily along, getting farther away every moment. At last she reached the road. Her only hope was to elude her pursuers. But where could she be safe? Suddenly she thought of the latest decree of Moses. He had granted to the Levites forty-eight cities. Six of these were cities of refuge, and the nearest of all was Shechem. There she would be safe, for had he not said that They shall be cities of refuge for you ...... that the slayer may Hee thither that killeth any man unawares ? All day and most of the night she traveled. She feared to rest lest she might be overtaken. She had had nothing to eat and even water was scarce. Her feet were bleeding and her legs seemed unable to move.. Schechem seemed afar off. Suddenly she heard behind her the sound of hoofs. She was pursued! She ran on and saw, when rounding a curve, the promised city before her. The horsemen had seen her and were coming faster and faster. Oh, why could she not reach the gate-it seemed so near. The horses were right beside her now, their hot breath fanned her face, then she stumbled and fell. Merchant Kemuel dismounted and, striding to the girl, raised her up. Esther had fallen just outside Shechem, but Esther's soul had reached the real City of Refuge. THE SPECTATOR 17 A Glanuhian Qarriiire Wilbert Hoffman, '20 The golden sun was just sinking in the west and casting a ray of brilliant colors over the Saskatchewan wheat fields. The wheat stalks swayed in the slight breeze like a sea. On the doorstep of a cabin sat John Steele, pipe in hand, with a contented look on his face. As he smoked he could hear the clatter of dishes and a cheery song within the cabin. Steele had a right to be happy. It was his first successful year in the Wheat lands and if everything went right he would possess a bumper crop. This would be profitable in two ways. First, he could buy his wife some of the luxuries she deserved, and second, his large crop would help to feed England in her attempt to stop the Hun. wk 4: :sf wk -of 1: :cf rf Ik as It was noon the next day. John Steele had just arrived at theicabin from his daily grind in the fields when Roger Burke, government agricultural expert No. 26, rode up to the door. Glad to see you, Burke, said Steel. Come in and eat with us. I accept the invitation, replied Burke, as he dismounted. He entered the cabin and took a chair. Florence will be here presently, said Steele. She is picking flowers for the table. Your crop looks good, commented Burke. 'All the others I have seen are just the same. That wheat should put some kink in old Hindy's line. Yes, and Florence will be happy, replied the farmer. just then Steele's wife entered. She carried some little yellow flowers in her arms, which caused 'Burke to gaze at her in astonishment. Tho-those flowers, said Burke. Where did you get them ? 18 THE SPECTATOR Among the wheat, answered the woman. Aren't they pretty ? Burke was speechless. Steel moved closer to examine the Bowers. The wonder shone in his eyes. lt can't be, he said. He received no answer. In a moment Burke broke the silence. Steele, he said softly, you know what those flowers mean. I do, answered the farmer, with a faint trace of a sad smile. In two days Burke had burned Steele's wheat crop to the ground. Nothing was left except the charred stalks. Before leaving the expert had a talk with Steele. lt is all right, he said. The pest did not spread to the other iields. We checked it just in time. Your crop is gone but the others are saved for England. I think I can manage to get through the winter, said the farmer. But Florence will have to wait another year for her things. I will wait hfty years if it will help England, said the woman, appearing in the doorway. She carried two glasses and a jug of wine. Here,,' she said, drink to England and think no more of rne. Next year we will begin all over. Burke took a glass. To England, he said. Stele was thinking. He had lost his whole year's work. He could not buy his wife what she should have. Then he thought of England. He brought the glass closer to his lips. To England, he repeated. THE SPECTATOR 19 A Eirifa Smprrwainn nf Ihr Arrnplmw Rachel Dibert, '21 Mrs. G. VV. Pigeon alighted on top of a bird house and looked about her. None of her friends were in sight. A bird house is not a good place from which to view the surrounding city, so she flew away in search of the one pigeon she wanted to see and could not End. Across a street, through a back yard, over several house tops she flew, and there on the curb- stone below her was another pigeon. This pigeon was quite as large as Mrs. G. W. and equally as good looking, if birds are called good looking in Birddom. Mrs. G. W. Pigeon flew down and greeted her friend, Mrs. W. B. Pigeon. They exchanged conlidences and then: I must be leaving you, Mrs. White Breasted Pigeon, said Mrs. G. W. Mr. Pigeon promised to patch our nest today and I know he'1l never do it unless I remind him. He wanted to put it off till tomorrow morning, but if the people in this great city intend to have a holiday then, I think we should have one, too. Stay one moment, Mrs. Gray Winged Pigeon, said Mrs. W. B. Why are the people having a holiday here? They are not having one in the towns to west ot us. Have they beaten another nation of Germans, or has their President declared a holiday ? Mrs. G. W. stared scornfully at Mrs. W. B. Don't you know P she asked. Tomorrow is Victory jubilee Day. And with that Mrs. W. B. had to be content. :sf 4: 4: af af PF fr uf af 4: Victory Jubilee Day dawned bright and clear, and with the dawn all the birds were up. Now every two weeks a meet- ing of the Household Society was held and all lady pigeons were expected to attend, and most of them did. It happened that this was meeting day. Many of the pigeons wanted the meeting postponed, but Mrs. F. F. Pigeon, who was chairman, had said it didn't matter who was having a holiday, or when they were having it, the meeting would go on. She conceded 20 THE SPECTATOR this much, however-it would be held at 6 a. m. so that every one would have a free day. ' At 2 o'clock in the afternoon some twenty pigeons, Mrs. G. W. and Mrs. W. B. included, all members of the society, gathered on the housetop where the meetings were held. Some- thing extraordinary had happened, as was evident by the ex- citement among the pigeons. It certainly was too bad you stayed at home instead of attending the meeting as you should have done, said Mrs. W. B. Mrs. Fan Tail arrived promptly at 6:00, called order, and the business of the meeting was begun. She talked and talked about something that was very tiresome. She never finished that speech, however, and that is the reason a second meeting was called now, for there began an awful whirring sound that increased every minute and seemed to be on all sides of us at once. Mrs. Fan Tail was looking up in the sky at the moment. She screamed, and we looked, first at her, then at the sky. There, away up in the blue, sailed a something that dipped and dived and turned and twisted gracefully. It was a golden color in the sunlight, and it made the noise which frightened us. Then, as we looked, there came right out of the sky a great bang and a puff or two of smoke. Mrs. F. T.'s tail stood up with terror, and I suppose I was as badly scared as the rest. The echoes of one bang had scarcely died before it was fol- lowed by another and louder bang. I never was so frightened in all my life! And there were so many of those loud explo- sions ! Mrs. W. B. paused for breath. Did you hear them ? she asked. Did I hear them? repeated Mrs. G. W. I was so frightened, I almost fell off the roof of the Fort Stanwix Hotel, and I-my goodness l she screamed, interrupting herself, there are the Somethings and they're letting the stars fall! Look ! Stars falling? Nonsense! came from Mrs. W. B., but she was not long a doubter. Truly the stars were falling! 1 THE SPECTATOR 21 And falling from those circling, swooping Things up in the sky. Look over there! Look l shrieked Mrs. G. W. Every bird looked. Down from the sky came a strange creature. It looked like a bird. It looked like-nothing the birds had ever seen. Frightened and wondering, the birds Hew around the city. Then, when all the strange things were gone, as Mrs. F. T. arrived, they quieted down and attended the meeting. When the business was finished Mrs. F. F. addressed the pigeons in a little speech, part of which may interest you: Ladies, these big things that made the 'whirring noise' are machines that sail in the air, aeroplanes. The 'banging' was made by exploding bombs. The 'falling stars' were pro- grams, and the 'animals' balloons. In summing up the events of this day, I might say that these things which terrorized us were brought here to make pleasure for the people of this city. These things cannot in any way harm us. But, Mrs. F. T. continued, if youwere to have your wish, would you want more holidays with amusements like these? Yes or no ? The pigeons voted, and the wonder of it was that only Mrs. W. B. voted aye, Perhaps she was more adventurous than the rest. Perhaps she understood the strange birds. Perhaps she even understood the deep significance of the Vic- tory jubilee. 22 THE SPECTATOR Qlirrumatantial Euihenrr Mary C. Lape, '20 Talk about luck! It's wonderful that Adele and I are to be roommates in dear old 38 again. I haven't seen Ad since her house party, and the glorious times we expect to have made me more than enthusiastic to return to the halls of Glen Eden, and you know, Kate, school is an unusual thing for me to be enthusiastic about.'f Yes, you are lucky, retorted Kate. I hear that Glen will be overcrowded this year and Miss Dufell informed me that my roommate would be a Freshman, Eloise Leslie. Can you imagine me, Katherine Austin, rooming peaceably with a Freshman? My only consolation lies in the fact that I'l1 have something to amuse me. What is coming up the end stairs? Oh! I say, do you see my Freshman roommate? There, Dufell ushered her into my room. I must go over and empty a few hooks for the child. I always did monopolize wardrobes. Hurrah! Mart, there comes Adele up the campus. By the look of things she has more trunks than last year. Let's give her a rousing welcome. Adele King, Martha Wilson and Katherine Austin had been termed the Clique ever since they entered Glen Eden, Madame Dufell's school for girls, because of their devotion to one another and their disregard for the society of their class- mates. Adele was a natural leader and her wealth added to her popularity. Katherine was trustworthy, but proud and haughty. Martha provided the wit and cleverness. The girls spent the first week in renewing old friendships and settling their curriculum. Katherine tolerated her room- mate, and sometimes almost proved friendly, but Eloise Was too shy and studious for the Clique. On Friday Madame Du- fell announced that an Upper Class Reception for the Fresh- men would be held. Adele and Martha, as members of the Reception Commit- tee, were very much pleased with the success of their efforts. THE SPECTATOR Z3 All the girls were especially agreeable and made up for their taunts earlier in the week by making the Freshmen feel a part of Glen Eden. - Martha, Adele and Kate, with a few others, lingered after the Reception to talk about coming social events. As they parted the trio were coming up the east corridor singing, When I'm old and gray, then I will dream of old Glen, My Alma Mater, oh ! The song broke off abruptly. All three looked wonder- ingly at one another. They had seen Eloise Leslie come out of Adele's room, softly close the door and hastily enter her own room. Adele was the first to speak. Well, what do you suppose that child was doing in my room at this hour ? Oh! I suppose she wished to see the interior of your room, because'I've often spoken of the beautiful appearance of your suite in her presence. I wouldn't begrudge her a glimpse, Adele, Kate answered lightly. Several weeks later Adele missed her sapphire brooch. The girls thought long on a possible explanation of its disap- pearance, and then Martha brought to mind the strange exit of Eloise from Adele's room. The matter was referred to Madame, who demanded an explanation from Eloise. She, too frightened to justify her ac- tions satisfactorily, said that she had entered the wrong room in the dark and, perceiving her mistake, had gone directly to her own room. This did not sound plausible and as a result rumor spread the news throughout the school and she was barred from the girls' company and openly snubbed by the Clique, although the Dean believed her story. lk IF Dk lk lk Pk PK wk lk Pk Adele and Martha were preparing to spend the week-end with Martha's aunt in the city. Katherine was helping them pack their bags and had just lifted a dainty chiffon gown from p24 THE SPECTATOR 'the cretonne hanger, when something fell from the dress and lay glittering on the rug. , Katherine was all excitement. Mart, Ad, look what I found caught in the folds of that dress you were going to wear the night of our reception! The trio gazed speechless at the sparkling ornament. The truth dawned upon them. Eloise's story had been true, but they through circumstantial evidence had condemned her as a thief. Adele, always the leader, picked up the sapphire brooch, turned it over in her hand and walked to the door. There is only one thing for us to do, girls, she said slowly. She walked down the hall to Room 36 and entered softly. The others followed.

The daily newspapers are printing information concerning it, the principals and teachers are meeting to discuss it, and in No- vember it is to be placed before the voters of Johnstown for decision. In an enthusiastic effort to lend support, The Spectator is publishing, in this number, several articles re- lating to this issue. Valuable information and conclusive rea- sons why this plan should be upheld, are given in Supt. Stock- ton's article. Mr. Black devotes the Principal's Page to a direct statement of our duty in the High School, while one of our Seniors, VVilbert VVehn, discusses it from the student's point of view. Every student attending the High School realizes the congested conditions which exist. The overcrowded class rooms, the confusion between periods when the halls resemble a bargain sale in a department store, the inadequate Audi- torium-are familiar to everyone. Many a poor Freshman arrives breathless at his class room after the tardy bell has rung- I couldn't get through the crowded Auditorium is his stammered excuse. Moreover, students can testify to the inconvenienc caused by several ridiculously small class rooms on the landings-rooms where they cannot move around comfortably. Since such conditions exist, as every student knows, and since the Bond Issue for 32,000,000 will remedy them, is it THE SPECTATOR 27 asking too much for us, the students, to support it? We will be the beneficiaries-we and all the pupils attending t-he schools in this city. As our part, we are urged to discuss the matter at home-talk Bond Issue at breakfast, at lunch- eon, at dinner, do our utmost to interest our parents, espe- cially our fathers. Convince them that it is their duty, on election day, to put an X in the square opposite the state- ment of the Bond Issue. Boost! ilinnrkmi nz. Ennatvra It takes all kind of people to make a world goes the familiar saying. One might enumerate fifty-seven varieties and more and yet not include all the types of people in this conglomerated old world of ours. However, in our opinion the simplest and most comprehensive classification would di- vide them into two groups- Knockers and Boosters The Knockers, famous for their severe criticism, harsh judgment, loud disapproval, and unreasonable intolerance- what an unpleasant club are they! Everything, from the weather and the cost of living to the government and the world in general, meets with their disfavor. Nothing pleases them- everything has a sour, unwholesome flavor, just because it differs from their notion of the rightness of things. They dis- approve of every new project, every new enterprise, and show their disapproval by knocking, Now knocking would be the death knell of every under- taking Qfor there are always knockersj if it were not for that other well-known club- the Boosters The Boosters are congenial mortals, who make life pleasant by a cheery word here and a thoughtful suggestion there. A public demonstra- tion such as the Victory Jubilee is planned-they eagerly boost itg a church is oppressed by a lack of funds-they offer their services to raise them. By enthusiasm and energy, they persuade other people to support the cause they are working for. In one sense they are good Samaritans-they help that 28 THE SPECTATOR which is in need of help. VVhat a pity that this group is not larger so as to neutralize the other-the Knockers ! . just so in our school life. No matter how efficient, how well-managed are the Cafeteria, the school library, the foot- ball game, and especially The Spectator, among the students there is always a majority of Knockers and a minority of Boosters, In the hall is frequently heard I can never get the book I want in that old library, and Why doesn't 'The Spectator' give us more good stories and illustrations ? and sometimes Qless frequentlyj What delicious sandwiches they sell at the Cafeteria! or 'The Spectator' is splendid-such good jokes and everything! Now, to which class do you and I belong? Are we imped- ing the activities of our school by knocking or are we pro- moting them by boosting ? Are we strengthening or weak- ening our morale? That is for our own conscience to decide. If we are Boosters -well and goodg if Knockers, let us strive to reform and join the glorious ranks of the Boosters To boost or not to boostg that is the question- Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to support The aims and schemes of each new enterpriseg Or to oppose and thwart them stubbornly, And by opposing end them? -I-I. V. v - i afl'7 ' .. I A AE .. THE SPECTATOR 29 Srhni rum J A number of new members have been added to this year's faculty. Their names and corresponding subjects which they teach are: Miss Maude Fiske, English, Mr. G. W. Metger, Science and Civics g Miss Lu Vara Smith, Bookkeeping, Miss Grace Haines, French, Miss Bessie Glossar, Bookkeeping, Miss Lillian Young, Sewing, Miss Mary Connell, Mathemat- icsg Mr. Leland Walker, Chemistry and Physicsg Miss Agnes Neary, French g Miss Elsie Greathead, English, and Mr. Web- ster Saylor, former member of the faculty, Mathematics. Miss Anna M. Strong, teacher of mathematics, has been unable to return to school to take up her work on account of illness. It is hoped that she will be able to return in the near future. During her absence Mrs. Fritz Mayer, formerly Miss Leone Raab, teacher of mathematics, has been substituting. New courses in Retail Selling and Public Reading have been introduced in the Johnstown High School, and an en- couraging number of pupils has taken them up. A course in Appreciation of Music to take the place of Harmony of Music has also been introduced. Mr. VV. W. Smith, a member of the Johnstown High School school faculty four years ago, was visiting in Johns- town Wednesday, September 10. Members of the faculty held a corn roast in Westmont Grove Monday night, September 15. The affair took the na- ture of a reception for the new members of this year's fa- culty. Dr. Edward Howard Griggs has returned to Johnstown this year to give a series of six lectures on William Shake- speare. The first lecture was given September 24 in the High School Auditorium. As much of the English work in our 30 THE SPECTATOR school depends on the character and works of Shakespeare, it has been arranged to give the six complete lectures to pupils for 75 cents. Chapel exercises were conducted Wednesday, September 10, for the first time this term. Mr. Black expressed a wel- come to the student body, after which Wilbert Wehn and Helen Vogel gave talks to arouse interest in the Spectator campaign. The Spectator campaign, which started on the following Monday, ended on the next Thursday with about 850 subscriptions. The list of rooms which subscribed with the highest percentage are as follows: Room 306, first high percentage, Room 305, secondg Room 307, third, Room 212, fourth, Room 301, fifth, Room 203, sixth, and Room 302, sev- enth. The business manager of the Spectator congratulates every teacher and student who participated in the drive. Fulton Conner, a former student of the Johnstown High School, has returned to take up his studies after two years' service in the U. S. Army as a corporal. At the Chapel exer- cises of Wednesday, September 17, he gave a vivid and inter- esting account of his experiences. He left school about two years ago and was sent abroad. Among the important en- gagements he took part in, that of Argonne Forest stands out most prominent. At this engagement he received a wound which was the cause of his returning to the United States unfit for further service. The football campaign was launched at an enthusiastic Chapel exercise September 24. Coach Beeler, Captain Gaff- ney, Assistant Manager Max Applebaum, and the Treasurer, Mr. Saylor, presented the situation which confronts the team at the beginning of this season and outlined the policy for the sale of tickets.

THE SPECTATOR 33 Like all others who are connected with the Johnstown Public Schools, the Alumni of the High School are greatly interested in the success of the Bond issue that has been planned by the Board of School Directors. At a recent meet- ing of the Alumni it was decided that every possible effort should be put forth to make this plan a success. All who have continued through the school system are urged to co- operate in every way to make possible the betterment of the schools for the largest possible number. Let every alumnus take it upon himself to work for more schools, better schools, better teachers and better equipment. 1905-Olive VVeaver, who has taught in the Johnstown Public Schools the last few years, has enrolled as a student in Chicago University. 1908-Miss Florence Glenn and Carl H. Zipf, '08, were mar- ried September 4, in the Moxham Presbyterian Church. They will make their home in Philadelphia. 1912-Mrs. Harry A. Crichton Hilda Shafferj died at the Mendenhall Hospital, September 23. Frederick J. Irwin was married August Zlst to Miss Marie M. Uhelenberg, of Redwood City, California. 1916-Ben L. Hull was a recent visitor to the school. He plans to return to the University of Pennsylvania to resume his studies. 34 THE SPECTATOR 1917-Ralph F. Himes has enrolled as a student at Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pa. 1918-Walter Myton has entered Cornell University. 1919-Many students from this class have entered higher institutions of learning.

A wild dash, a sharp scuffle, then a figure launches itself and the runner falls. Football season is here. With it comes Johnstown with a team such as Johnstown has always turned out-a winner! You remember last year's team? Rather, can you forget it?. And the preceding year? Those were teams to remember with pride. Fast, hard-hitting teams that played college teams and acquitted themselves in a way that covered old J. H. S. with glory. Another Johnstown team takes the Field this year that is just as fast, just as typical of Johnstown's former winning teams as good coaching and eager response are able to make it. You know what that means. It means another string of victories for Johnstown High School, and eventually the championship., That is not too high an aim for a Johnstown team. In fact, it has become a natural aim for Johnstown teams. VVe did it once and we will do it again. VVe have the requisites for a successful team. First, the material. Abundance of it. Joe Gaffney captains the team. Besides Joe there are from forty to forty-five candidates. They follow: Backfield-Matthews, Longwell, Campbell, Cahill, 36 THE SPECTATOR Wagner, Katzenstein, Hoerle, Hanson, Sharpe, Hartnett, Sha- fer, Callet, Lukeg ends-Seigh, Carney, Safkog line-Koontz, Ruff, jones, Horner, Greer, McDunn, Kristoff, Ellis, Mon- tieth, Logue, james, Weaver, Wissinger, Connor, Cauffiel, McQuinn, Truxall, Wehn, Bentz, North, Wagoner. The spirit with which these candidates responded argues well for the coming season. Second, we need a coach. We have a coach. You saw the results obtained by Mr. Beeler last year. Mr. Beeler has been named by some of the eastern sporting papers as the finest scholastic coach in Pennsylvania. Third, we need the support. That means the united co- operation of every student. Last year, with a record team, a winner, the support was not only poor, but it was unworthy of the team and its efforts. This was due largely to the condi- tions. The inHuenza broke up the season and interest died down. Whatever the reasons, they do not exist now. Either you are whole-heartedly supporting the team or you are indif- ferent. Indifterentl What a word to be used in connection with Johnstown's student body. The season ticket costs Sl.5O. It includes six of the ten games on the schedule, all of which are to be played at home. Below is the schedule as arranged by Manager Dunford. It is one of the most attractive in years: Scottdale ...................,............,....,..................... ........... O ctober 4 Apollo ................................ ...........

Several of the teams on the schedule have played Johnstown before and the games THE SPECTATOR 37 were such as to arouse the enthusiasm of the rooters to the highest pitch. The teams are just as formidable this year and plenty of excitement is promised. The team is ready and now it falls to you to do your part. Of course, you will respond. You can't do otherwise. Come to the games and join in the cheering. The air should fairly ring. Be there and yell with the rest. Raise a noise that will fairly lift the team between the goal posts. Are you with us?

I, THEODORE ROOSEVELT EEG LITERARY ELF' .lllllf-'Ehll I Boys of Ours Kenneth Bowman, '21 Foreword The memory of Johnstown High School boys who died during the World War was the inspiration for this poem on the occasion of the first armiversury of the ending of actual warfare. They got you Boys, oh boys of ours, They got you in the fray: We're proud to know you fought the fight, And died the hero's way. You had the pluck, you had the dare, You longed to meet the foeg And in your will God put the might For you to die or do. - Each day We look upon your names, We think of what you gaveg We wish and pray to God alone, We had your spirit brave. Your courage true from Johnstown High, You carried o'er the sea: And into battle gladly Went, To gain our victory. Your names upon our honor roll, Speak daily your successg ' Years will come and years will pass, And still your lives'll impress, 6 THE SPECTATOR Not Strictly According to Plan Helen Vogel, '20 CAST OF CHARACTERS George'H, Warren, President Guv Churchwell of the Superior Cooperage Co.

I tell you, Reva., there is nothing to pre- vent us from giving a dance Thanksgiving evening- George has given his consent, providing that Agnes as- sumes the role of chaperone. There are Japanese lan- terns galore in E1len's trunk. tTo Ellenl It was thought- ful of you to bring them, Ellen. And as far as refresh- ments are concerned-pooh! ' They are the least of my troubles, and- Reva. How you do ramble on, Marciag do take a breath While I'm talking. Really, though, I think it would be perfectly delightful to give an affair like that in Ellen's honor. By the way, how does our Lady Ellen From-the-North enjoy the prospect of being the honor guest of the evening? Ellen Cmockinglyl. Oh,, I m overwhelmed with ec- stacy, of course. Can't I just picture myself on Friday reading from the Newport Independent - One of the ! I, THE SPECTATOR 7 most delightful social events of the season was the Thanksgiving party and dance given by Misses Marcia Warren and Reva Leison in honor of the charming Ellen Warren from Johnstown, Pa. etc. You'll be green with envy, girls. Thin'k ,of the publicity- Charming Ellen Warren, ahem! Reva. Publicity? Cin a bantering tonej Well, any- way, we will be sharing in it since we are the hostesses- basking in the sunlight surrounding our celebrity, you know. Ellen. I'd rather- Marcia. You two quit quarreling like two strange bulldogs and help me to make a list of the guests before the whistle blows. Now we shall have Charles and Ellen, of course, Reva and Jeff, and-fenumerating on her fin- gersl Reva. Marcia and Tommie, don't forget. Then don't you think we should invite Emily and Marg. Ohl- son? They're in Little Rock now, but we could easily send them a telegram. Marcia. Yes, they are our cousins. Uokinglyj The Lord gave us our relatives but, thank God, we may choose our friends. . fWith repentancej-But that is an uncharitable remarkg they are dear girls. They will do for Guy and Gene. Besides, Emily is a splendid pianist. Ellen. How about the invitations? Marcia. Suppose you attend to the invitations, Re- va. Invite those we mentioned and any others you hap- pen to think of. Ellen, dear, please do the decorating- you have such artistic ideas. I'll take charge of the re- freshments, with Aunt Ada's assistance. lThe whistle blowsj. We must get to work now-It's 12:30. Dis- perse ye villain, ye rebel disperse! fplayfully pushing Ellen toward the doorl. Ellen. Don't fret yourself, I'm going. 1ExitJ fMarcia and Reva resume their work.J 8 THE SPECTATOR Scene II.

What do you mean, Guy? Guy. What a short memory you have! Don't you remember the other night in the Chummy you asked me not to call you Miss Ellen because it sounded too for- mal? Ellen finquiringlyj. Yes? Guy. And you said, Pm just ,plain old Ellen. So- Jeff. So ever since then Guy addresses you as Plain Ole Ellen -as requested. fGeneral laughterj Ellen fpretending indignationj. You telltale! Don't ask me to dance. Come, Charles! fThey seat themselves on the davenport, apart from the othersl. Guy fchallenginglyl. That's a Yankee-always beats a retreat after a defeat! fHe and the others resume dancingzl Ellen fignoring Guy's remarkj . What do you think of the strike at the mill, Charles? George and Marcia are inclined to scoff at the whole thing, but- Charles. Oh, it's nothing serious. The niggers will be eating humble pie in a few days, asking Mr. Warren to THE SPECTATOR 9 take them back. As for public sentiment, everybody in Newport syrnpathizes with your brother. Ellen fproudlyj. And no wonder! He has always been too good to those colored men-they've slept on the cushion of advantages so long that they've grown discon- tented with its very luxury. Of course, I don't know much about it, but Aunt Ada, she's Big Jim Nelson's wife, has explained it somewhat. She says they are getting desperate--no money, I suppose. They might become violent. T Charles. That's possible. Yet I know they wouldn't attempt to destroy the millg it is food, provisions, that they want. Ellen Cquicklyl. The Commissary! Don't you see, Charles, they might attempt to raid the Commissary and, since it's built to our home, all our lives would be endan- gered if- Charles. Great Day, Ellen, they are afraid-afraid of Mr. Warren, afraid of the law, afraid of the conse- quences. We don't permit these niggers to walk all over us like you Northerners. We've held them under too long for that-Why it would be anarchy! Ellen fpromptlyj. You said it, Charles. Gracious, but it's hot in here--let's go out for some fresh air. fExentJ Margretta Cafter the conclusion of the dancej. Won't you sing for us, Mr. Hudson? Emily. Yes, please do. You know you can sing. Tommie. Oh, you'll have to excuse me-I croak like a crow with a sore-throat. Gene. Ah, tell that to the Marines, Tommie. Come on, Miss Emily will accompany you. CEmily crosses to piano, strikes chordl. Tommie fsingsl Somewhere 'a voice is calling, Calling for me-e-. fCharles and Ellen rush in' breathlesstj 10 THE SPECTATOR Charles. Yes, there will be a voice calling us all to Heaven if we don't-fwith great excitementj. What do you suppose Ellen and I saw? A mob of men, black men, angry men, desperate men--the strikers! They're mad as hornets and they're headed here to raid , Ellen Qinterruptingj. The Commissary! Charles fhastilyj. Those niggers mean mischief. Mr. Warren is in Newport attending a banquet, so We must head them off ourselves. . , fVarious expressions of alarm and excitement. Mar- cia faints, Reva revives herl. Marcia. Wha-a-t are you going to do, Charles? Charles ftensely.J Talk to them. Being foreman over these men has taught me quite a bit of nigger psy- chology. Jeff. And probably have a brickbat hurled at you for your kind interference. ' Charles. There is no alternative. Somebody has to talk to them. Lock the doors and windows. Gene, divide the boys into squads to protect the house in case they attack it at other points besides the Gommissav Quick, now!

He's a no'-count, low-down, Yankee crook! Charles. Hungry? Whose fault is it if you're hun- gry? Yours, of course. You say he's a uno'-count, low- down, Yankee crook? He has given you a compensa- tion fund, he has shortened your hours, increased your pay, provided ice-Water for you during working hours, and yet you call him a crook! You fools! Why did you strike anyway? Didn't you have every advantage in the World when you worked for him? And now that you are out of work, helpless, starving, you come to raid the Commissary. Listen! The Sheriff and his men are com- ing. Before you know it you'll be in his power and then -what? You'1l have to take the consequences, do you hear?

Charles and the others prepare to defend the entrance. At that moment, automobiles filled' with armed men dash around the corner of the building. The n-egroes disperse. 12 THE SPECTATOR Charles.

Charles fsuddenlyj. By the Way, Mr. Warren, who sent for you? Warren Guy, over there. Reva. Guy! fExclamations of astonishment from all.J Warren. Yes, Guy. Dr. Ira Erwin was just giving us some advanced theories on love and matrimony-just like a bachelor-when Guy rushed in like a hurricane, crying Mr, Warren, come quick-the niggers from the mill are attempting to raid your Commissary. It only required a minute to 'phone Sheriff Vaughng when we raced around to the jail, he and his men were ready. We piled them into the cars and rushed for Warrenville at sixty per. Near the levee we met Mr. Massey and others, explained the situation, and they came with us. For- tunately we arrived here in time-Great Scott, but that was a ride! Bu Guy, since you're the hero of the even- ing, suppose you explain more fully. Guy. Hero, nothing! If it ha7dn't been for Charles holding them back with his Mark Antony oration, you would all be in Kingdom Come now. Gene Explain what you did, Guy. Margretta. We don't understand. THE SPECTATOR 13 Guy ireluctantlyj . Well, when Charles said he was going to talk to the niggers, I got an idea. Why not get help from Mr. Warren in Newport while Charles tested his oratorical powers on the niggers? So, I jumped into the girls' chummy and bolted to Newport. Very sim- ple-help arrived in time. Mr. Vaughn did the rest. Marcia. Yes, and I hope Daddy Vaughn keeps them in the calaboose 'till Doomsday. Reva Cpessimisticallyj. It has spoiled our Thanks- giving party. . e Agnes. Things never happen strictly according to plan, dear. If they did, life would be quite dull and mo- notonous Marcia. Since when have you turned philosopher, Agnes? Charles. Mrs. Warren is right. Now confess, la- dies and gentlemen, hasn't this adventure been worth ten Thanksgiving parties-even if it weren't strictly according to plan? Curtain. Grumpy Mary C. Lape, '20. Relying upon your memory of Dickens you would easily have seen a. remarkable likeness of Scrooge in Mr. William Gout, otherwise Herr Grumpy. A tight-fisted hand at the grindstonef' he surely was, but his eyes seemed out of place among those deep furrows worn in his forehead and the wrinkles on his Wan cheeks. The eyes were clear blue I think, perhaps, if he had smiled oftener those wrinkles and furrows would have gone un- noticed beside the merry twinkle of his eyes. Grumpy was not old, sixty-two, to be exact, but in his own estima- tion he had one foot in the grave. He had been, at one time, a staunch follower of 14 THE SPECTATOR Martin Luther, until he found fallacies and shortcomings in the congregation, and then not wishing to contaminate himself, withdrew his membership. His was the prayer of the Pharisee, Lord I thank thee, that I am not as other men. It was Thanksgiving eve but a true feeling of Thanks- giving had yet to find its way into the heart of Grumpy. However, he would celebrate this Thanksgiving as others, by purchasing a turkey. Nibs, his man of all Work, would prepare the usual side issuesg Nibs, by close proximity, becoming as crabbed as he. The two would have a royal feast. This Thanksgiving Spirit was all nonsense, for all people ever did was to gorge themselves on Thanksgiving, not giving a rap whether anybody else had anything to eat or not. Hypocrites all! He was tired, being differ- ent, there was nothing to be thankful for in his lonely life, and now he was going to have a grand feast this Thanksgiving like all the others in the community. He just wished to see any good Work done in this town, or any true spirit of Thanksgiving. After close perusal of the preceding evening's paper, he retired, for lack of something better to do, and was soon overcome by sleep. Afar off he sensed the approach of a beautiful gol- den creature. In one hand she bore a scythe and a sheaf of yellow grain, in the othed a horn of fruits, while around her head a shining halo glowed brightly. She came nearer, paused at the foot of his bed, bade him arise and follow her, The Spirit of Thanksgiving. Hastily throwing on his warm fur ulster he followed the spirit as she sped lightly over the fields, now covered with their first light sprinkling of snow. At the cottage of Widow Poverty she stopped and bade him be silent and Watch. Unperceived, they saw Neighbor Charity coming THE SPECTATOR 15 down the path, a bulging basket beneath his arm. He knocked loudly at the WidoW's door, and then leaving the basket on the door step, hastened away, a merry twin kle in his eye as he thought of the pleased and wonder- ing expression on the widow's face, upon her discovery of the basket. The Spirit then spoke to Grumpy, so he is one of your hypocrites, I suppose? Grumpy wished to see the widow's surprise but the Spirit reminded him that they must hasten on. Farmer kindness, soon to be the scene of a feast prepared for the family, and all his hired hands, the dining room of Mot' er Greatheart, in which occurred the annual get-to-gether of her chickens, the Salvation Army Hall, soon to be filled with the shouts of happy newsies, at their holidav' feed, and other organization halls and their particular way of celebrating in the true spirit of Thanksgiving. Last of all, looking toward the west there loomer' before their eyes a stormy, rockbound coast, there the Pilgrim Fathers were celebrating their first Thanksgiving with all reverence to God. The first pink streaks of dawn were visible in the east, when Grumpy awoke. Had it been a dream? He was so sure that it had not been that he gazed at his shoes for proof. True enough, there was mud on the heav' shoes he had worn and a wisp of straw lay on his coun- trepane, left there by the Spirit. He felt younger and there wasn't a trace of his old rheumatics and gout. Straightway he jumped-actual- ly jumped out of bed with an agility which surprised him. A little later he accosted Nibs with a cheerful Good Morning! and after breakfast he remarked that a big turkey was too large for Nibs and him. He intended bringing Hardworker's family home from morning serv- ices and he should set extra places. Come to think of it, he always had liked their young 'un, Willie. Once more, Mr. William Gout entered the little vil- 16 THE SPECTATOR lage church, while young boyish voices sang that hymn of Thanksgiving- We plough the fields and scatter , The good seed o'er the land - Rev. Goodfellow knew by the glowing light about William Gout the transformation that was going on in his soul, and inwardly rejoicing he called on our returned Brother Gout to lead' in prayer. Feebly at first but gaining confidence, Grumpy pray- ed, as of yore, a prayer of true thanksgiving for all his blessings, God's wondrous gifts to mankind and the new song in his soul this day. 4: wk wk , 4: ik 4: ar With a satisfied smile, Grumpy closed the door upon his departing guests, the family of neighbor Hardworker, who could not find words sufficiently great to praise him. But the praise that lingered with Grumpy was that little Willie Hardworker had said, Grumpy Wilm's chiten was berry dood. t W, The Spirit of Thanksgiving wiaifrea Davis, '20, Lieutenant Richard Southern suppressed a groan as he lay on his bed. ,Why would memories torture him? This was the night before Thanksgiving, but Dick felt that he had no thanks to give. Fate had given him a glimpse of happiness, which had been cruelly snatched away. Even as he dozed, he could hear the distant rumble of machine guns-the horrible jumble of sounds from the everlasting tempest. Could nothing remove him from this turmoil and slaughter? A smile replaced the grim lines about his mouth as he thought of his mother, proud, yet gentle-of Jean, his sister. who had all the staunchness and bravery of the true southern girl. In his sleep, he grinned wickedly THE SPECTATOR 17 at the thought of all the tricks that he had played on poor old Mammy Chloe. She would be mistress of ceremonies on Thanksgiving day. It seemed that he could even smell the tempting odor of that great, browning turkey. A maddening desire for home seized him. Even as he listened, he could hear the soft music, which he knew to be Jean's, issuing from the grand piano in the panelled living room. But he was called back to another world, the world of the unceasing, sordid struggle of the battle- field. Perhaps a Hun was falling at that instant. Again, it might have been a poor American boy. He wished, then, that he had never lived to experience the tortures which memories can bring, Suddenly, above the confusion of war sounds, a voice reached him. It was that of a southern negress. Ain't you comin' down tod-ay, Marse Dick? Missy say to tell you dat de sun am high in de skies. ' Dick aroused himself. He sat up in bed to find the dark, round face of Mammy Chloe peering down at him. Could it be true that he was back on the old plantation? Surely, he was-still on the battle-torn land. But his hand touched the side of the mahogany bed and objects in his own room became distinct. Yes, he remembered now. He had been brought home. He was only dreaming of those horrors. He could see that the skies were blue and a stray beam of sunshine was struggling to gain admit- tance to his room.. It was a typical Thanksgiving day in the South. Dick glanced at his empty sleeve. He, too, had paid toll to the grim reaper of War. Then the mem- ory of his dream flashed into his mind. He shuddered as he thought of all his comrades, huddled on the battle Helds, who would never return. His own sacrifice was not as great as theirs had been. No more bitter glances were given to that empty sleeve. He smiled cheerily as he whispered to himself, Just a little thing has been my gift to such a great cause. 18 THE SPECTATOR An hour later, when Dick appeared at his mother's side, she knew at once that he was changed. The eyes that had been dull and helpless, now twinkled. She sighed happily as he called Jean, with a glad note in his voice which she had not heard for many days. She was sure that something had come into his life since that day when he had solemnly testified that there was nothing in the world to be thankful for. The Thanksgiving dinner was served at twilight. MammypChloe hovered in the background, beaming upon her idol. While the bells were chiming to call the good servants to Worship, Dick made his confession. I have found that this world contains innumerable things to give thanks for. I can give the greatest thanks for my safe return. I thought that all he big things of life had been taken from me when I awoke in the hospital to find that the use of my arm was gone forever. But I believe now, that the lost arm opens a greater career for me. Moth- er, I have always held contempt for a dream. But since a mere dream gave me a vision of the past, I have attained that -essential to happiness--the spirit of TIIANKSGIV- ING. new Xlf 5 l .4 - ,as ezyeg' f ggi' I ta, s sf' IL, X THE SPECTATOR 19 PRINCIPAUS PAGE The Period of Preparation An individua1's life may be divided on the basis of time into three periods. The early period of life, an un- productive preparation periodg middle life, a productive periodg the later period of life, an unproductive consum- ing period. It is recognized as the best economics for each person to devote the early years of life to prepara- tion rather than production. Start to produce at the age of 14 years and the product is a much more inferior product than that resulting when preparation is continued 6 or 8 years longer. It is the influence which the preparation period has on the other two periods that makes it of vital import- ance. In so far as one limits the preparation period, the possibilities of the following periods are also limited. Shiftless habits formed in the early period produce indif- ference and want in the following periods. The preparation period is a preparation period re- gardless of individual wishes as it is a period of acquir- ing new experiences, and one is continually possessing himself of intellectual tools with which he expects to build his life's career. The school is a place where the environment is most conducive to preparation of the prop- er type. The school is the institution which is estab- lished to assist in the preparation period. Time honored traditions and present efficiency tests establish the fact that it is the best economy for an individual to spend the entire preparation period in an institution which is dedi- cated to preparing.

Three hundred years ago a little company of Pil- grims landed upon Plymouth Rock. They were not ad- venturers like the Spanish, nor rough traders and woods- men like the Frenchg they were a cultured, refined people who struggled for a principle-the principle 'of religious freedom. Their hardships and privations in rugged New England are familiar to every student of history. Well-known, too, is their ultimate realization of that principle. Did they accept their victory thoughtlessly, deeming it the well-deserved fruit of their own labors, or did they recognize the Divine Power which had assisted them? The First Thanksgiving is the answer. The whole-hearted devotion, the unconquerable faith, the jubilant rejoicing which dominated that first Thanksgiving of the Pilgrims should be characteristic of our Thanksgiving in the present agei Are they? When we sit down in a comfortably heated room to a sumptuous dinner of turkey, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and the other delicacies which are features of the Thanksgiving table, do we remember to thank God for our comfortable houses? Do we thank Him for the plump turkey which we ourselves did not have to shoot in the wintry forests the day before, as our forefathers did? No, we probably complain about the High Cost of Living, and bewail the fact that the turkey was bought at an exorbitant price. That is not the true spirit of Thanksgivingg that is not the spirit of the Pilgrims. 22 THE SPECTATOR We have especial cause for rejoicing this year. The Great War which was still a. hideous reality last Thanks- giving is now only an unpleasant memory. Industrial unrest and social disorder predominate, but there are still sufficient things for which to be thankful. Even though we must hope for the best, prepare for the worst, and accept what God sends us, yet we can be thankful with a free conscience, for God has sent us many bountiful things, has given every one of us some of those things we most desire. So, let us celebrate this Thanksgiving with hearts brimful of joy and happiness, with minds properly cogni- zant of the generosity and good-will of God. H. V. 1 SUCCESS OR FAILURE ' Upon the words, Success and Failure, are based the extremes of the world. They summarize the work of mankind in the sense of gain or loss. For this reason they are to be a matter of serious consideration What exalts the world to the lofty position of com- mercial freedom, of internal gain, of mental, physical, and moral increase, but honest, ambitious determination to succeed? What debases our present population more than lack of effort, lack of work, stubborn opposition tox right, refusal to carry out necessary reforms, and idle extravagance? In the world war united co-operation gave us victory over destructive mobs with cruel ambition. This is verily-SUCCESS. Likewise it was Germany's foul, savage means that caused her downfall-this is FAILURE. There are many instances of success and fail- ure in all forms and steps of life. But all rest upon the foundation created in man's mind. Success feeds civilization in that it makes it a reali- ty. It strengthens the bonds between men and recreates anything formerly considered hopeless. It gives us re- f THE SPECTATOR 23 ligious independence, high moral thoughts, social equity, and democratic dominion. Failure, on the other hand, tends to discourage us, and to hinder our welfare. All prosperity is lost. We turn, once more, to ancient times when wars, cruel and bloodthirsty, abounded, when ruth- less tactics predominated, when men were at their lowest state. But should all the years of the past fail to teach us, to give us experience? Shall these years of bloodshed be fruitless? No! Then it is our duty to lay a solid foundation. God has given us life so that we may stand in the world and with the hands of Success lift it up. Failure, the evil spirit in our mind, is like the serpent in Eve's time. It is a test of will power, a force that tends to drag us down. H As high school students, let us think. We are at the age of decision-Success or Failure. Our choice is recognized by our sincerity, our work. On the gridiron we have succeeded because of systematic training, and' untiring efforts. Our paper has prospered in past years because we had the loyal support of the student body- financially and materially. In studies some of us have succeeded because of our realizatoin of its necessity in future activities, because of our determination. But SOME is not ALL. Slackers are revealed in school life as well as in war. Our motto should be Honest Support Means Success. Remember! Success is HAPPINESS. Failure is CHAOS. In all, there is but one possible se- lection. IT REMAINS FOR EACH ONE OF US TO CHOOSE. -E. T.

He discussed this important plan with direct attention to the valuable assistance which pupils can lend. He pointed out in a definite manner the personal influence which pupils had in exciting interest in parents and asked that it be used. The Class of '20 met in the auditorium Oct. 2, for the purpose of organization. Mr. Black took charge of the meeting and class officers were elected. They are, El- kins Longwell, Presidentg Clarence Heinze, Vice Presi- dentg Louise Benshoff, Secretary, and Earl Speicher, Treasurer. n At an unusually large attendance of the Mass Meet- ing before the game with Scottdale High School, Mary Ellis and Matthew, Horner were elected cheer leaders. In a short speech, as treaurer of the team, Mr. Saylor gave gave a summary of the financial conditions of the team A number of yells were practiced. The first of the series of lectures on Shakespeare by Dr. E. H. Griggs was given in the High School Auditor- ium September 24th. The subject The Humanity of Shakespeare, was designed as preparatory to the follow- ing lectures. The next Wednesday, Oct. lst, the second of the series, The Merchant of Venice, was given. In this lecture Dr. Griggs showed how Shakespeare in his 1 THE SPECTATOR 25 earliest period of success, borrowed his ideas and liftei his characters to a plane of lofty motives. In the third lecture Julius Caesar, Dr. Griggs showed how Shakes- peace contrasted the characters of Brutus and Antony. In Hamlet, Dr. Griggs upheld Hamlet as a sane char- acter and declared that Shakespeare meant him to be so. Macbeth, Dr. Griggs explained, is the drama in which Shakespeare deals with womanly characters to so great an extent. U Superintendent H. J Stockton addressed the upper- classmenf at the Wednesday morning Chapel, Oct. 15th, and the lowerclassmen at the following Thursday morn- ing Chapel on the subject of the Proposed Bond Issue. The speech contained much valuable information concern- ing the plans of the School Board and the benefits to be derived from them. He also explained the method to be employed in paying off the bonds. At the Mass Meeting Friday, Oct. 17, preceding the game with Duquesne U. H. S., Fulton Connor gave some information on Duquesne's team. Dick Haws expressef' his gratitude for the efforts put forth by the loyal rooting squad and asked for new yells. Immediately following this call for new cheers Benny Kristof and Mary Ellis led the assembly in rehearsing new yells. During the past month visits were paid to our school by some former faculty member. The visitors were: H. K. Shoch, former head of science Departmentg J. C. Rutledge, former Latin teacherg J. F. Faust, former teach- er of science, and Miss Isabelle Kennedy, former English teacher. - At an unusually interesting Chapel exercise, Oct. 29, members of the AB Club were given chevrons in recogni- tion of their efforts in-study. Wilbert Wehn, Helen Vo- 26 THE SPECTATOR gel, James Ressley, Beatrice Davis, Ethel Hartman, Madge Boden, and Katherine Goucher were decorated by Mr. Black. Wilbert Wehn received, for highest honor in number of terms in the Club, an indigo chevron, and the others in the order in which they are named were given chevrons in colors from indigo to red. ,l.

The score was 26 to 7 in favor of our own warriors. That they still have some rough edges which need to be pol- ished is shown by several poor plays that were made. Nevertheless, for a green team they did well and amply justified the school in its belief that they can acquit themselves in a creditable manner against any team ap- pearing on their schedule. In the first quarter, Johnstown by a series of line plunges, carried the ball over the line but failed to kick the goal. The fast quarterback of the Scottdale team re- ceived the ball on the kick off and ran the length of the field for a touchdown. THE SPECTATOR 31 In the second quarter the home team settled to work and crossed the goal line again. Fritz intercepted a for- ward pass and ran 55 yards for a third touchdown.

Because of the rain and mud only straight football tactics could be used. In this Johnstown had the advantage because of its greater weight.

The regulars were put in the 32 THE SPECTATOR game but failed to stop the rush of the visitors who crossed the line for the first touchdown. In the second quarter, the local team speeded up considerably and crossed the Apollo goal for a touch- down. After several attempts at the line, Apollo punt- ed. Johnstown got the ball and by a series of plunges and end runs again carried the ball over the Apollo line. The third touchdown was made in the third quarter, the ball going across after a series of plunges which the Apollo linesmen were unable to withstand.

The game was a hard contested affair until the last five min- utes, when things began to happen. Duquesne pulled off a long forward pass and crossed the line for a touchdown which left them in the lead. Game to the last second, the Johnstown team got the ball and started to work the forward pass to the limit, realizing that this was the one remaining chance. After three failures, Fritz went around right end, caught the long forward pass from Logue, and raced for a touchdown, crossing the goal line in the last few seconds of play. Seigh kicked the goal. Neither side scored in the first quarter. Johnstown attempted many runs around both ends but most of them failed. The Duquesne team was erratic in offensive play and fumbled many times. In the last part of the quar- ter, Duquesne started toward the Johnstown goal but lost the ball on a fumble. The quarter ended with the ball in Duquesne's possession in the middle of the field. At the beginning of the second quarter Duquesne lost the ball when a forward pass was caught by Haws. 34 THESPECTATOR PHOTO av wu.L.lAM KREDEL.

Johnstown-0 Latrobe-0 Johnstown rooters again witnessed a real football contest when the High School team met the fast Latrobe team Saturday afternoon on the Point. Each team had a string of victories to its credit. Both teams played to the limit and put up a fine game but neither could cross the goal line and the score ended 0-0. This probably eliminates both teams from the race for the cup. Latrobe kicked off to Johnstown. On the second play, Fritz broke through the Latrobe line and reached the visitors' 20-yard line before being tackled. He fum- bled when tackled and Latrobe started up the Held. They had reached the Johnstown 25-yard line by a series of forward passes when the quarter ended. In the second quarter the Latrobe team started a combination of passes and line plunges that brought them within striking distance 'of the Johnstown goal. There they lost the ball on downs. Johnstown also failed to make the required distance. The half ended with the 36 THE SPECTATOR ball in Latrobe's possession on the 28-yard line of the home team. Johnstown kicked to Latrobe who carried the ball to the local 30-yard line by a succession of line plunges. Here Hanson intercepted a forward pass and by a 15-yard penalty, Johnstown had the ball on the Latrobe 28-yard line. Latrobe intercepted a pass and kicked to Seigh. Johnstown was held for down as the quarter ended. H Gray fumbled a pass and lost 5 yards. Johnstown blocked a kick but was penalized for off-side playing. Latrobe was held for down and Seigh and Fritz-carried the ball up the field. A placement kick from the 22-yard line by Fritz missed by a few-inches and the game ended.

WILBERT WEHN Bill A more talented boy you can- THE SPECTATOR 23 Class History , Sara Statler As we, the members of the class of '19MZ, near the close of our high school career we reflect upon the work with a feelng of regret for the time misused, but we have also a sense of pleasure for the good derived both men- tally and socially. As inquiring Freshmen, with a membership of 118, we entered the doors of J. H. S. January the sixth. Not unlike our predecessors, we felt our importance as we raced wildly through the halls, searching for our rooms. We were soon given to understand, however, that this im- portance was temporary, for the upper classmen by their jeers and comments, baffled all attempts of obedience and study. The teacher's voice to us sounded like that of Mark Antony's, Friends and Countrymen, lend us your ears, as we sat almost stupified in his domain, Our calculations and dreams of High School privileges faded as we received lengthy assignments and took the dreaded reviews about which we had been warned by our seniors. At the end of our first term, our number was considerably reduced. We had learned that High School meant real work and earnest effort. On returning the following autumn, although still Freshmen, we recompensed ourselves by tormenting the new Freshmen, however, not without being reminded oc- casionally, much to our chagrin, that we were still in that stage of development. The class made a record not only inistudies, but also in athletics. Girls' and boys' volley ball teams were or- ganized. One of our girls' teams came out second, a record which we as Freshmen, considered excellent. Our boys' teams too, made commendable showing. Petty outbursts about handsome teachers, cute fel- lows and popular girls had now subsided somewhat as 1 1 1 1 I 4 THE SPECTATOR 25 we entered our Sophomore year. Quietly preparing our daily lessons, we showed to our schoolmates that many names from the 'NW class would be Written high on the pillar of fame. Still earnestly -engaged in athletics, we were training men for the varsity to help old J. H. S. win the much coveted trophies at no distant time. Our Junior year brought the class into prominence and helped prove that we were really necessary in the progress of the school. We elected our first class officers, choosing, in our dignified Way, those who We felt were best fitted. They were Herbert Fritz, president, Paul Cupp, vice presidentg Ethel Hartman, secretary, and William Auman, treasur- er. With the 1919 Juniors we helped entertain the Sen- iors at the annual Junior-Senior Reception, in February. The building was beautifully decorated for the occasion. Some of the more gifted members of the '19 class pre- sented a play, A Proposal Under Difficulties. Very appetizing refreshments were served, after which we were conducted to the gym, where We enjoyed the re- mainder of the evening in dancing. The class was receiving very helpful instruction in English under the supervision of Miss Kennedy when she answered the nation's call. So much time was spent in securing a substitute that we were unable to give our Junior Dramatics. However, do not believe that the class lacked talent, for there are some whose names you will yet see on the program of the Majestic or perhaps the Metropolitan. When the 1919 class asked for our con- tributions to help buy the bronze tablet in memory of our soldier schoolmates, though our name does not appear, '19MZ, after its custom, contributed its share. Almost before we could realize it, we were beginning our Senior year. With it came the consciousness that we should exert every effort to make our final year the best. This, I am glad to say, we have done. In recognition of 26 THE SPECTATOR the services rendered the class, We took pleasure in re- electing the oiiicers of our Junior year. The treasurer had graduated, so We chose Wilbert Wehn for the place. With the class organized We were ready to dig in. Three of our men were on the interclass basket ball team, which vvon honors. These, I dare say, were the allstars. On March the first We Were entertained by the Jun- iors at the Junior-Senior Reception. An interesting pro- gram Was rendered, a fine feature of which was a play, The Old Maid, presented by Miss Statler's English class. The affair proved a delightful success. Our Senior class has been well represented in ath- letics. Joe Gaffney has been the captain of the foot- ball team of 1919, and has played both in that and bas- ket ball for four years. This year on the first team in football we were represented by Haws, Fritz and Han- son. This varsity team was strengthened by the scrub team, which Worked equally hard. On this team were Cupp and Kellar. We feel proud that no other class has contributed a larger percent to athletics than the class of '191f3. Last June we held our picnic at Sulphur Springs and the day was pleasantly spent. The ability of those of considerable avoirdupois Was exhibited in races, quite amusing to the onlookers. Some costly prizes were given, trophies which Will be stored away in family chests. A victrola afforded good music for dancing. Lest I forget, I'll relate that sumptuous eats were served by the re- freshment committee. When we were seated about the table we appeared like a large family of noisy children. There was plenty for all, a fact which I can affirm, for S Hanson consumed eight blocks of ice cream. When the evening shades crept over the trees we gathered around the fire and toasted marshmallows. All sang, re- gardless Whether we were artists or not, for the accom- THE SPECTATOR 27 paniment of Ethel Hartmanfs ukelele would inspire even the dullest into song. The fun did not end here for we scattered music along the road home. Doubtless many an old farmer and his wife, wakened from their slumbers, sat up, rubbing their eyes in utter enchantment, as they listened to the melodious strains of John Hamil- ton's tenor voice or Jennie Mitchell's mezzo soprano. But what of that, it was our day and a pleasanter one we have all agreed, has never been spent. While engaged in athletics and social affairs we did not neglect our studies. In the A, B. Club we have eleven members. Wilbert Wehn has been enrolled throughout his four years. Five members have made up one half year and two have advanced one year. This proves that we have brilliant students. The announcement of the honor roll will tell the tale of those who have labored and received their reward. We had not fully realized that school life was near- ing a close until we found heaped before us, numerous essays and notebooks to be completed. Gradually we are preparing for final Senior activities. After our class has appeared in the play, Let's Get Married, has enjoyed the class dance to be held Satur- day evening, November the twenty-second, after we have received some helpful advice from Dr. Hays in the Bac- calaureate Sermon at the First Presbyterian church, De- cember the twenty-firstg and after we have finally ap- peared in our cap and gown and received our diplomas at the graduation exercises on December the twenty-sec- ondg the class of '19MZ will sever relationship with J. H. S. so far as studies are concerned. But relationship with the school and its progress will live on in-the hearts of' the members of '19MZ. Our school will always stand as a beacon light to guide us aright. To it and to our motto, Aim at one end, we hope ever to live true. , I l THE SPECTATOR 29 Class Will PREAMBLE We, the class of nineteen hundred, nineteen and one- half, county of Cambria and State of Pennsylvania, being of sound mind, memory, and understanding do make and publish this our last Will and testament, hereby revoking all other Wills made by us heretofore.

Class Poem Ethel Hartman, 'l91f2 Listen, my classmates, and you shall hear Of nineteen hundred and one-half's career, On the first of January in fifteen and one-half Our entry into High School caused many a laugh- Well do we all remember that first day and year. We said to our friends, If we should get lost In a hall or room of this building today, Send out an S. O. S. no matter what the cost, And set us aright in the proper way. We hunted and looked and sought to find A room or something that looked like its kindg Upstairs and downstairs and all through the halls, We scampered breathless like miniature dolls, 'Till brought back to earth by S. O. S. calls. And thus began our High School life, With four years before us, full of joy and strife. As Freshies We played our parts, never fear, Throughout nine long months of our freshest career, While we bore the slams and taunts of our mates THE SPECTATOR Silently yielding our lives to Fate As slowly we approached the Sopohmore gate. As silly Sophomores we felt quite big, And as a result were inclined not to digg We launched gaily forth into a world of fun From morn 'till noon and set of sung And, like all jolly Sophomores you see, We were full of pranks as we could be. Slowly but surely We mounted each round Always happy where'er we were found. Upon assuming the dignities of our Junior year, We spent much time on our studies, 'tis clear. And although we went to the Junior-Senior ball 'Twas by diligent study we became Seniors that fall. Now after four years spent in Johnstown High We're closing the last with many a sigh. As dignified Seniors true knowledge we've gained And now the last honors and triumphs attained, We're ready to face the future with courage high, Resolved to conquer and never say die. You know the rest. From our friends you've heard, Or, if not from them, from our friend the little bird - How as a class We have fought our fights And now are ready to claim our rights, For the 1919M4 class is ready for the fray Under her glorious banner, The Gold and the Gray 32 THE SPECTATOR Seen From A Plane In 1929 Zip! Zowie!! Wh-i-ir-r-r! ll The propellers whirled, and my trustworthy pilot and I were off in our plane for a cross-country tour. But, to simplify matters, I must explain. It was ten years ago that each of the '19V2 Class of Johnstown High School passed from the portals of that venerable institu- tion. During these years, that dear old school chum, Carrie Smith, and I have remained true to the prediction that matrimony was not the bliss that awaited us. I ad- mit, friends, that we have become typical old maids, but we think more of our cat and knitting than all the pleasures in the world except flying, which is to say, avia- tion. However, I must take up the thread of our flight. As previously mentioned, the propellers whirled, and we were off. We skimmed through the air, our hearts as light as the song of a lark. As passenger, I watched the houses and speckled fields disappear behind us. While passing over Meyersdale, my eye was attract- ed by an immense crowd of people gathered about a wo- man who was to perform a spectacular stunt by climbing a ladder to a lofty pinnacle. Imagine my surprise when I recognized her to be Pauline Gross! A large sign stood nearby which fairly screamed Benefit for Lame and Blind of Meyersdale. On the outskirts of the throng stood George Sheesley hotly arguing with Wilbert Wehn, who, it has been reported, refused to support his project of developing the Meyersdale by-paths into boulevards. Mr. Sheesley is a community planner of renown, but his work cannot progress without the financial aid of Mr. Wehn, president of The Penny Trust Company of Mey- ersdale. - As we circled over the town, I noticed on Main Street a large black and white sign Fetterman, Modistef' Into THE SPECTATOR 33 the shop passed Jennie Mitchell. It was rumored that she Wrote Ethel Hartman, Who has succeeded Beatrice Fairfax, about an affair of the heart. Seeing her pat- ronizing a modiste of such note, I concluded that Miss Hartman had wisely advised her, and Jennie was ordering her trousseau. Now we were far beyond this little town. My pilot turned to me and said we would be forced to land to re- plenish our tank with oil. There appeared to be but one available place, of which We took advantage. As We alighted, a brawny blacksmith advanced from a nearby shop, shaking a formidable looking hammer, and de- manding an explanation for ruining his wheat field. His greeting certainly was not of a delicate nature, and made us tremble for our safety. Explanations seemed of no avail until Calvin Galbraith, sheriff of the county, ap- peared and settled the dispute. We lost much time before We were again on our way, so we decided to travel by moonlight. Fortunate, were we not, that the moon was full. The country was Hooded with soft radiance, and we soon discovered that not only we took advantage of such a lovely night, for below us, on a peak of the Alleghenies We saw Florence Itell sketching by telescope the man in the moon. We understand that her Madonna,' has surpassed those of all other artists, and that her model, Edythe Samuels, has been pronounced the most beautiful girl in the States. We traveled well toward morning, making splendid time and, having no mishaps, breakfasted at a small mid- western town before again taking up our flight. When we arrived at the next scheduled stop, while lunching at the Kellar Cafe, we were agreeably surprised to be joined by George Braden. I would never have recognized him as the youth of Johnstown High School, for his locks were ringlets of a raven hue. Immediately, he embarked upon an oration which had for its subject 34 THE SPECTATOR the marvelous qualities of a hair tonic. He himself had found it entirely satisfactory, and daily advocated the tonic at the door of every house in his zone. To be ami- able, we listened patiently, and finally purchased a sam- ple of this miraculous liquid. Before leaving the cafe, we had a word with Logan Kellar who has made a huge success of his business, and prides himself upon his motto The least for the most money. Passing through the business section of the city, my pilot and I noticed the famous establishment GAFFNEY BEAUTY PARLORS BEAUTY VIA STRENGTH Joseph is a splendid example of this treatment, and has developed his profession accordingly. After attending to a few minor details in preparation of the second large step to be made across the continent, we hopped off again. The weather was fine, and the motor worked to perfection. As we sped over the hills, mountains, and forests, memories were awakened of the days ten years ago when we Walked, diploma in hand, into the world to learn whether destiny held for us Suc- cess or Failure. Could we have realized the disappoint- ments, cares and hours of anxiety that awaited, perhaps our hearts would not have been so light, nor our farewell so cheerful. Swiftly the hours passed as I was engaged in reveries, and soon the buildings speaking of civilization and en- lightenment began to flicker by until San Francisco grew from specks on the landscape into reality. Easily detecting the aviation fields, we descended ahd became acquainted with the western air-devils. We met Clair Grove, who pilots a mail plane from San Fran- cisco to St. Louis, and had a delightful chat about the de- velopment of aviation since the time when we were class- mates. He spoke of spectacular stunts performed the previous week and the disaster one poor flyer met with. THE SPECTATOR 35 His life was saved by the heroic and skillful Work of Ethel Mosgo, who is superintendent of the largest hospital in San Francisco. Nome, Alaska, was our next destination, but we in- tended spending the evening in San Francisco. We de- cided upon the theater for entertainment. We boarded a street car for the central section of the city. Carrie, my pilot, whispered that Mary Katherine Kautz was the conductress of our car. I did not notice her face as I paid the fares, but I really can't believe that Fate has played such a trick. We were but mildly surprised to discover that the vivacious Irene Spicher was the head feature of the Pro- gram. She has improved immensely in appearance, and her make-up was extremely well done, though, if I re- member correctly, she was always an adept at the art, even in her early teens! To support her number, she has introduced a clever chorus of girls, namely, Willard Lig- gett, Louise Davis, Helen Lockard, and Sara Myton. These young ladies completely fascinate their audiences by their dainty dances. The motion picture serial offered greatly interested me. Herbert Fritz, Paul Cupp, and Carrie Blight were starred. Mr. Fritz has become a national hero of the Nicholodeums, by his daring deeds. As hardened as my pilot and I were to thrills, we clenched the arms of our seats and gasped for breath while waiting for this hero to leap the canyon and escape the avalanche of rocks and earth which was started by the villain, Paul Cupp. I do not believe we fully appreciated the genius of Mr. Cupp while we knew him in school, but Paul has won de- served recognition. Miss Blight made a charming hero- ine. After finishing this serial she signed a fifty year contract to appear in Ziegfield Follies, We were awake early the following morning, for the last stage of our journey. As we flew farther north, We se THE SPECTATORWW W pulled our collars higher and hid more deeply in the depths of our plane. When Nome finally appeared to our anxious eyes, we breathed a sigh of relief. We alighted amid the solitary silence of a frozen land, and made our way toward the central part of the city. The reason for the desertion of the streets soon became apparent. A gigantic mass meet- ing was just taking form, and as we entered the doors of the public hall, I was astonished at the excitement. Joh'- Hamilton, whom a man standing near us called Gover- nor John, was speaking of the merits of Alaska, and the right they possessed to demand entrance into the States. Thundering applause followed his address, and as Robert Hanson rose before the audience, the crowd, composed chiefly of Indians and half-breeds, became wild. I gath- ered from comments around me that he was known as Handsome Bob and held the Indians completely under his influence. I doubt very much whether they under- stood one word he said, nevertheless, each one nodded assent. Several women were present on the platform. Among them I recognized Pearl McFeaters, Ina Follmar, and Margaret Shaver. Pilot Smith and I had other duties to perform so we left before the meeting adjourned. On the street, we met Sara Statler. She is doing social set- tlement work, but soon hoped to be transferred to the States. Sara inquired for members of the 'IEDM class. I told her of my travels, and of the classmates we had seen. We remained in Nome several days, but finally our transactions were completed and we prepared to set out for the dear old U. S. A. With many good Wishes for a safe and pleasant journey, we soared toward the clouds, and turned the nose of our plane toward the south. Floating above the world which seemed so small and yet so large, I again remembered the happy school days which belonged to the past, and wondered if ten more years would elapse before we could have a reunion of the members of the '19M2 class. ui: 25 N530-MO BEM M5230 WEMZBLOE mgidu S MEOU MEGEBQQMH HEWQNOE WGEOOA Q5 MEEOHU N mmgowmam M-:MES ENEQQUH MEWGOH wiwidn ,gsm SBU Mgwm MENWMZSW migdmwdu MESEWGQ M695 wigdm Wade wgpmm 20:2 Micah? wvzda wining MES WEUMH HOUR-glove is A0505 d op OH M025 :mi OH E206 :mga 6 Op OH HEWHIESSPW FMEOUEOW On OHM umm aww OHL msgs Hmm OH 'SNNEME H803 N N5 OB HESW sa -dwg N BEC OH mwihwno MADE OH 32553 N M5 OH Wdsmmg gg opdg OB Ura mp-5 'gasp d up OH ,SMH-H03 HEUOAM 'Q mn OB gigs JSE d on OB U55 'anim mga OH EE -IQo::E N N5 OH EMS?

It is a very much excited and, some might say, somewhat anxious personage that confronts us. Small wonder is there for the perturbed condition, for is not this the climax of his many hard months of study at the aviation ground school, the eventful day when he is to receive his first flying instruction? It does not take long for the necessary regulations, and soon Percival Clarence leaves the ground with a rush and a roar. He is up at lastg his ambition, or at least the beginning of it, is realized. But poor Percy is doomed to a rude surprise. The expected bliss and pleasure are not forthcoming, instead, with a grip of death upon the cockpit he is uttering a silent prayer, O-oh, what if the fool thing would bust? Holy Smoke! What's he doing now-he's upsetting-gosh, I never thought he'd get rightside upg if I ever get down alive, never again! OW-W What's he doin' now! He'1l THE SPECTATOR 41 never straighten out of this nose-dive. Oh, Heavenly - But let us kindly draw the curtain upon Percy's first fly- ing experience. Upon landing, Percy, with a strange smile as smiles go, like the hero he is tells his instructor, Oh no-er that is, yes, I could have stayed up all day. Pk Pk ik wk Sk wk PK ek Time is a great healer of wounds. When we next meet our esteemed Percival Clarence, he is none other than Second Lieutenant P. C. Hathingway, combat flyer. The Lieutenant is in the same perturbed state of mind as when we first met him. The egotism in his bearing is not without cause, for on the following morning are not he and his Buddy, Harry, to leave for France-for coun- try and honor? After much celebration upon the eve of his departure, he falls into a tossing fit of slumber. Sk Sk Pk Ik Pk Sk Pk lk Oh, who is that distinguished soldier that we see, with an attitude of blase proprietorship, leaning against the fuselage of a Spad pursuit plane that has painted upon it, twenty-three Maltese Crosses, each signifying a victory o.ver a brave, but lesser Hun pilot? It is none other than our old friend, Percy, whose officialtitle now is Captain P. C. Hathingway, D. S. C. V.C., etc., of the-the Division Flying Corps and the recognized Ace of Aces of the A. E. F. Just at this moment a Hun pilot has the impudence to sail blithely over Percy' aerodome. Up goes Percyg Rat-ta-tat, goes his machine gun, Crash, resounds the Hun. As Percy alights he remarks to his mechanic, Um, let's see, that makes twenty-four. The following morning While scraping the so desig- nated whiskers from his manly chin, his elbow collides with the mirror that he had received in a kit from home. Crash, and up and down our hero's back runs the same THE SPECTATOR Hun the Battle With Up to cival Goes Per enty Hun planes, W is credit thus far are t Toh firing line he I Deal' ken 0120 I2 ph -This U a-I 0 Z somewhereiin France. THE SPECTATOR 43 expressive chilliness that he had experienced during his first flight in far-distant America. Good night, he moans, that means curtains for me, and with trembling apprehension he gathers up the remains. Nevertheless, with characteristic bravery, at ten o'clock he starts on his two-hour patrol of the Hun lines. The old bus has never worked better, and soon he loses the nervousness caused by the early morning disas- ter. Zippity-zip, whines a string of hostile machin e-gun bullets, by his ear. Instinctively he noses the bus down and he glances up. Wow, it's seven of Duff'endorfer's Flying Circus, I'm in for it now. Darn that mirror. In among theml' would have been better Words, for with characteristic treachery, the seven German combat planes swoop as one upon poor Percy. He bravely turns to meet them. One Hun goes down in flames. But the odds are too great. Not even the great Hathingway can take such odds and survive. Wham-thud. All goes black before him as he receives the contents of a Hun's machine gun in the face. He is falling, oh so swiftly, powerless to aid himself. He has no pain, yet he can feel the warm wetness of his life- blood coursing over his face and neck. As the flaming plane crashes, he faintly murmurs, I at least lived and died a hero. But can this be Death? He hears faintly at first, but growing more distinct, the voice-yes, the voice of his dead Buddy Harry who crashed but a week before. It is calling, Say, you bum, get up, you sure are some sleeper, I hit you in the face with a wet sponge and then I upset your bed. You hit the floor moaning, 'Ah, I at least lived and died a herog' you certainly have been having some strenuous nightmare. Poor startled Percy dazedly asks, Why-why, where am I? The dim surroundings seem to recall his 44 THE SPECTATOR old barracks at Brooks Field. 'Why, answers his pal Harry, who seems very much alive, You're right here at Brook's Flying Fieldg where did you think you were, in France? and mournfully con- tinuing, Gee, I' almost forgot, hostilities are to cease at eleven this morning, so I guess we don't get to France. Oh, well, let's get up and celebrate. Slowly and surely the light of day grows strongerg slowly and surely the mind of Percival Clarence grows clearer, until he realizes that he has been only a dream hero. .....- The Christmas Spirit Pauline Gross, '191f2 Slowly the throng partedg happy Christmas celebrat- ers halted to let him passg every one turned toward him as he walked slowly down the street, the giggle on a girl's painted lips was stillg the modern Scrooge stopped sneering and his lips parted in a smileg a small child clip- ped his hands and ran to him. He was of medium height and extremely strong lookingg his step, though deliberate, was firm. But it was the face that made the people give way. The brow was clear and noble, the eyes pierced through to the very heart, as if reading the innermost thoughts. The lines of the face indicated care and untold suffering, but the mouth was tender and a faint smile trembled on the lips. As I followed him I felt a thrill pass over meg his very presence enthralled meg I felt as if I were in a -dream. His look gave courage to the weary, command- ed the disheartened to try again, and promised to the unfortunate a haven of res-t. It called little children to him, for it revealed a love beyond all human understand- ing. My rapt attention was his, when-suddenly the throng closed around him, and he was lost to my vision- that beautiful Christmas Spirit. THE SPECTATOR 45 The Decision Irene Spicher, ' 191f2 In the spacious living room something was curled up in a big Morris chair. This something happened to be Evelyn Turner. She often sat thus, thinking of that great winding pathway, the Future. Not even a glimpse of what was to be found around the first turn, had Fate al- lowed her.. Yes, I guess I will be a teacher. I have weighed everything else and this seems to be the most practical. It will be so interesting to watch the development of hu- man nature in my children, for of course they will be my children. Yes, we will be one big family.-No I really couldn't teach any but little children. I will have them when they are yet free from the sins of the world. But supposing-. No, I really can't be a teacher. An actress! A great dancer! Why of course, that will just suit me. I will dress myself in very beautiful clothing. Then I will appear all radiant and beautiful. I will hold my audience spellbound, and then, when the curtain falls, there will be a great roar. How I shall love to run back and make a charming bow! I Will be so dain- ty no one will be able to resist me.-But Oh! I forgot, I am Evelyn Turner. ' An actress? Well I should say not! Oh how could you ever think of such a thing? Indeed !- Tapping keys all day long would be rather mechan- ical, but I guess I can stand it. I can think all the while about the dances and parties I expect to attend. Then I will be able to endure it. Oh, yes, I will be a stenog- rapher.-Should one work at something which he does not love?-No that would be a life-wasted. Plenty of nice girls work in a bank. Why couldn't I? Yes, that Will be-money, money-clink, clink. She put her hands to her eyes as she thought of the 46 THE SPECTATOR money. Nothing but cold metal. No indeed! I wish to work upon the strings of the human heart. A government translator of French? I have always liked French. Yes, I will write and get particulars con- cerning this work. She jumped up and hurried to the little writing desk in the corner. Before she had finished writing the letter she threw the pen down on the desk, then came slowly back to the chair and settled down again with a sigh, Oh my, what a problem! I really don't know what I shall do. That evening Evelyn hummed a little song while she dressed. All the gloom she had felt in the afternoon had faded. She was going to visit her delightful Aunt Ella, delightful to Evelyn because she knew so much about girls. As she paused, with her slippers in her hand, her foot poised in the air, she remembered how she had nursed this aunt through a long illness the winter before, when a trained nurse could not be obtained. During this time she had had the hardest trials in her life, but after all, didn't those trials bring real happiness? How she had enjoyed preparing her aunt's food! At home, she had just hated to cook. But she was really helping some one here, and well-that was different. She jumped up and finished dressing. It was a very happy girl indeed, who appeared before her aunt that evening. But why shouldn't she be happy? She had had a glimpse around the first bend in her future. One month later, in Trinity Hospital, Evelyn stood arrayed in a nurse's uniform, a contented smile upon her face, Happiness is gained through helping others, she Whispered. THE SPECTATOR 47 Hjust Luck , George Braden, '191A Jack Thorp sighed to himself, as he sat staring at a certain picture on his dresser. If only she had said yes instead of no, I would have been the happiest person in all this world. He had been in love with the girl, whose picture he was staring at, but she had told him that her love for him was not what it should be for them to become man and wife. Since then he had tried to forget it, had even sought employment in Chicago, at which place he was now employed by a large banking concern, As he sat musing, Ted Blair, Jack's confidential friend, rushed into the room. Jack, how about a little theatre party to-night, with two swell girls? Awfully sorry, Ted, replied Jack, but I can't pos- sibly go tonight. I promised the boss to drop in at the oflice and help him go over the books. Ted looked incredulous, but said nothing. Jack's reason for not going was not that he had to work, but that not any of the girls he had thus far met in Chicago appealed to him. After Jack had gone he sat down to read his home-town paper. Suddenly his atten- tion was arrested by an item of news. Miss Jane Williams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I. D. Williams, and Irvin Norwalk, of this city, are to be united in marriage at the home of the bride to be, tomorrow night. He read it slowly, reread it, then threw the newspa- per on the floor and exclaimed, Married! and to that spendthri-ft, Irvin Norwalk! Oh, Jane, how could you? It was through pity, rather than through jealousy that he spoke. He knew that Irvin Norwalk took life as a joke, and he was thinking of the future for the girl that he had hoped to make his wife. Ill 4' HK if ll' IK i 1 48 THE SPECTATOR It was two years later. Ted and Jack were sitting by the fireplace, smoking when Ted interrupted their chat. Jack, anxiously exclaimed Ted, I met the most wonderful girl you ever saw in all your life, and, by the way, I arranged for a little theatre party. for ,tomorrow night. Come, you know it will be Christmas eve. At first Jack said no, but he had been making so many excuses lately, that for the sake of friendship he consented. And so the following night, Ted took him to the house, where the girl was visiting. As their hostess greeted them, Jack became aware of the presence of a radiantly beautiful woman, who ex- tended her hand to him. Jane, he exclaimed, Is it you? Then he caught himself and added more quietly, I am glad to see you. Yes, Jack, it is I. This is a pleasant surprise. It was not possible to tell which was the more sur- prised, Jack, face to face with the girl that had refused him, or the girl herself. And your husband, where is he? asked Jack. My husband, exclaimed Jane. Why I am not married. But I read in the paper that you were to be mar- ried. Yes, but I realized what a mistake I was making, and so broke my engagement. May I hope that this Christmas will be a very happy one for us both? Jack asked eagerly. Here, Jack, you can't monopolize Miss Williams, Ted broke in. Pm not, I'm just wishing her a Merry Christmas. You see we are old friends. Not long after this meeting, which was brought about by mere luck, these two people were bound for life by those words, I do. JOHNSTOWN HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY 50 THE SPECTATOR PRlNCIPAL'S PAGE' The Course ln Retail Selling Each person is at sometime engaged in selling. When one seeks employment or does a service of a pro- fessional nature it is an instance of salesmanship. About one fifth Xof a city's population is directly engaged in sell- ing. Compensation for selling is much more liberal than in some other activities. The retail selling is done under sheltered conditions, and even to beginners the money re- turn is commensurate to the results. In Johnstown High School the course in retail sell- ing so arranged that a pupil completing two years of regular High School work may then complete a two year course in retail selling and upon graduation receive the di- ploma of the school. During the retail selling course the forenoons are spent in school and the afternoons and Sat- urdays are spent in the different stores. This arrange- ment provides for a pupil's income, which in many cases is most welcome. The compensation is very liberal and the employers are pleased at the co-operation between the school and the business world. The curriculum in this course includes English, Busi- ness Mathematics, and Theory of Selling in the first yearg in the second year, English, Economic Geography, and Theory of Selling. It would be wise for pupils to investi- gate the merits of this course. f ff. 2. lk 'fu xi fl hhll R af' was fav H-is J NG 'JJ xxx. V baum.

GRE Q QQ? Q ta nc Duty---Work and Aiiti-Work Wilbert C. Wehn, 'l91f2 Duty is not optional. It is unavertable. It is the performance of duty which shapes our ideas, our princi- ples, and our opinions. It molds our character. Nay, it determines our Destiny. Our performance of duty creates in the opinions of others, our reliability and responsibility not our untrustworthiness. Duty is the very essence of life--the performance of duty, that which makes life happy or miserable. Our duties fall into two classes, the big things. and the little things. The big duties of life are those which consume a large part of our daily activity. Though all duties which bring in a monetary consideration to a per- son are big duties, this element is not essential. Our school work which we do today brings us no material re- ward but our reward lies in the fact that our earning powers tomorrow will be in exactly the same ratio as the ratio of application and gain derived from our duties to- day. The big things form the real world around us. The little things consume a here-and-there hour of our daily life. They never bring material reward and, while not a net loss, result in expenditure Without profit. It is not our purpose to condemn little duties. They are essential to happiness because they give spice to life. But why do we differentiate so partially between big things and little things? Why do we temporarily lay aside big things of life and take up little things? The 54 THE SPECTATOR purport of these questions will be more readily grasped from an illustration. A teacher once assigned a rather lengthy Algebra lesson and was very soon called to account by the mother of one of the girls in that class. My daughter, she ex- plained, must take a dancing lesson and music lesson, and must practice for a play in which she enacts a lead- ing part. Where can she find time to do all that Alge- bra? That whole Algebra lesson, retorted the teach- er, Hshould not take her longer than an hour and a half. If you think you can educate her on dancing and music lessons, you had better let her drop the Algebra. You may think this viewpoint is secured from the side of the teacher and from the side of the student. Probably it is, nevertheless we cannot get away from the fact that therein lies a very clear misconception of the point at issue. Why is it that that girl preferred the lit- tle things to the big ones? Why is it that all of us dis- count the most important and compute the other on a compound cumulative basis? In my opinion, the whole solution lies in putting all duties on an equal basis and then discriminating between them, separating the things which we like to do from those which are less agreeable to us. It is a-well known fact that we all love to do the things with which we are in sympathy and heartily detest doing the things to which our natures cannot readily adapt themselves. Does this not seem to indicate that the whole matter lies in the gratification of personal de- sires? Our limited space allows us to merely touch upon this before we must go to the anti-work side of duty. We have all wasted the time of our employer in either willful loafing or involuntary inactivity, brought about through the shortcomings of others. When we are compelled to loaf, we grumble. We grumble because the other fellow was not prompt. Yet in all our grumbling, do we not THE SPECTATOR 55 protect our ideas of what a days' work means to ourselves and to our employers? Do we not fret about the loss of time and about what might have been accomplished in that time? We assume an entirely different attitude of mind, however, as a result of willful loafing. There is no grumbling, no fretting, no worrying about completing the tasks at hand, there is nothing except the joy of getting one over on the boss. Do not think I am opposed to all loaing and playing. On the contrary I am heartily in favor of daily diversion from mental or physical strain. Loafing and playing pro- vide us with that from which we derive the joy of life if we but indulge in them rightly. Loafing, we realize, is either voluntary or enforced. Why not, then, assume a happy attitude of mind toward it. Grumbling nets the grumbler no more than gaiety nets the lark, and certain- ly gaiety is to be preferred. It is in this way that our at- titude toward duty makes life happy or miserable. But we shall soon take our places in the world and our attitudes and desires will become apparent. We shall be called upon to perform those duties peculiar to our- selves and in which We will be able to render the best service to all mankind. . As we progress, we shall learn more of what is to be our share in the comedies and trag- edies of the universe. On each succeeding day our ideas of duty will form themselves more strongly, but today the world still appears to us in borrowed colors. 56 THE SPECTATOR Farewell This is an occasion for mingled pleasure and regret. You have a sense of exultation because you have com- pleted another chapter in your lives-a chapter of joys and sorrows, victories and disappointments, golden op- portunities and sad disillusionsg a chapter in which you have earnestly and conscientiously endeavored to hold high the torch of knowledge. Perhaps you, too, are sus- ceptible to that disease, The Pleasure of Escape, which infects all of us at some time, perhaps you rejoice to have finished four years of honest toil. If you are, you are but human. We, however, are reluctant to part with those who have been our friends and associates. We recognize the value of your friendship. In addition to this personal sense of irreparable loss, the school as a whole will miss your leadership in various activities. In athletics, you have had very capable rep- resentatives, in academics, you have asserted your ability as students, a testimony of which is your extensive mem- bership in the A-B Club, in social aiairsg you have par- ticipated zealously. You have indeed been Semper Fi- delisf' if you have not established a precedent, at least you have set a noteworthy example. For this the school is grateful- students may come and students may go but its memory of you will endure forever. It is a well-known fact that greetings and farewells are usually- expressed in the most commonplace terms. So, futile as such an expression must seem since it cannot adequately convey what our hearts feel toward you, dear Graduates, we extend our congratulations and best wishes, and bid you a reluctant but fervent farewell.

The nearly unanimous vote cast in favor of the 32,- 000,000 School Bond Issue November 4th was most grati- fying to everyone who has any interest in the educational affairs of Johnstown. The pupils of all the schools who are studying under conditions most disadvantageous to health and progress are especially grateful to the loyal voters. With the backing of the Johnstown people, the School Board is now ready with their perfected plans to construct new buildings and remedy conditions existing in the older ones. The outlook for Johnstown is splendid. We owe this bright future to the citizens of Johnstown. To them we express our thanks. At the Wednesday morning Chapel of Nov. 5, Dr. Griggs spoke to the upper classmen on the subject of study and preparation for life work. These two neces- sary factors, Dr. Griggs emphasized as the great functions which undeviatingly lead us to success in what we pursue in life. In the evening Dr, Griggs completed his series of Shakesperian lectures with The Tempest. This drama, as one of Shakespeare's most complete, Dr. Griggs com- pared with what we may term the island of our dreams since We can realize only a measure of such dreams in real life. The Chapel exercises of Armistice Day, Nov. 11, were 58 THE SPECTATOR dedicated to the fallen heroes of this last great war, who were former students of the Johnstown High School. Mr. B. D. Allison and Captain Harry Cramer, U. S. A., gave very impressive speeches. As a mark of respect to the heroic dead, the students placed a fine floral tribute be- neath the Honor Roll at the entrance to the building. Mr. R. H. Harpster, formerly of the J. H. S. faculty, paid a short visit to this school last month. Mr. J. C. Saylor, formerly of this faculty, has gone to Peabody High School of Pittsburg to take the place of Mr. J. F. Faust, who was also from this faculty. Mr. Faust will take up work at the American Scientific Ma- terials Company. The Army and Navy play, composed of pupils and former Alumni members of J. H. S., was given successful- ly at the Cambria Theatre three times: November the 7th, 10th and 11th. The money obtained is for the Student Loan Fund which benefits, financially, high school pupils who would otherwise be unable to enter higher schools. A special Mass Meeting of all upper classmen was called November 14th, in the Auditorium, for the purpose of rousing enthusiasm for the football game with Clear- field H. S. Mr. D. H. Krise addressed the meeting. Members of the A-B Club held a party Friday, Nov. 21, in the High School. A fine program was given and a dainty refreshment was served. At the class meeting of the '19M3 graduating class, the Honor Roll Was announced. The high honor students are Wilbert Wehn, Louise Davis, Marie Groebel, and Irene Spicher. The honor students are Robert Grove, Ethel Hartman, Sara Statler, Edythe Samuel, Paul Cupp and Jennie Mitchell. The members of the '191f3 class held a dance Novem- ber 22nd, in the High School. The class play entitled Let's Get Married will be given December 19th. N W AM, TE BALL FOOT HOOL SC GH I H XNN HNSTO JO pple- sst. Mgr.g A Mgr.g Matthews, A Dunford sst. Mgr.g A yers, M Mgr.

The Bellevue team was a good one and the Johnstown victory was well earned. In the second quarter the Bellevue team made the first touchdown. By a series of line plunges they brought the ball to the Johnstown 25 yard line and then took the ball across by an end run. Snyder kicked the goal. Two minutes later the Johnstown warriors retaliated by cross- ing the Bellevue goal. Logue received the ball on the kick off and carried it back 13 yards. Fritz took the ball around left end for a 14-yard gain and on the next play received a long pass from Seigh and carried the ball across. His attempt at goal was unsuccessful. Early in the second half the Bellevue half-back fum- bled and Captain Gaffney, aided by good interference, ran the length of the field for a touchdown and then kicked the goal. The Johnstown team has improved steadily since the beginning of the season and played a better game Satur- day than at any previous time. The line, which hereto- THE SPECTATOR 51 PMDTO BV EDGAR Mock ' 1 fore has been Weak, did fine work and held the Bellevue plungers in a most creditable manner.

Rain fell during th-e entire game and the field was covered with several inches of mud and water which caused many fumbles. Only straight football tactics could be used and McKeesport showed itself quite effi- cient along this line, keeping Johnstown on the defensive most of the time. In the last quarter the ball was carried over the line twice, but the players were over anxious and the ball was replaced on penalties for off-side play. No Picture On Account of Rain The Johnstown line, which has shown great weak- ness so far this year, did not hold any better Saturday. The McKeesport backs repeatedly broke through the line, only to be stopped by the Johnstown back-field defense. One of the striking features of the game was that the Johnstown line, although very weak when in the center of the field, stiffened and held whenever the Johnstown goal was in danger. The fourth quarter was a continual night-mare for the Johnstown rooters. The ball was within 10 yards of the goal during most of the period but the team managed to hold on till the whistle blew.

Johnstown-6 Clearfield--3 Johnstown met Clearfield on the Point Saturday, No- vember 15, and succeeded in breaking its streak of tie scores by defeating the Clearfield aggregation by a score of 6 to 3. The Clearfield players were husky and had been well drilled. They carried the game into Johnstown territory and kept it there during the whole first half. The ball was carried over Johnstown's goal line a few minutes after the game started but was brought back be- cause both teams were off side. Clearfield had about the best team that has appear- ed on the point field this year and Johnstown was oblig- ed to play some first-class football to defeat the visitors. In the first quarter Clearfield blocked Seigh's punt and Norris, getting the ball and running behind fine in- terference, crossed the Johnstown line, but the ball was replaced because of oi-side play, as before mentioned. In the second quarter, neither side scored but Clear- field brought the ball to Johnstown's five-yard line and lost the ball after a penalty for off-side play. In the third quarter, Clearfield scored when Capt. Butler made the first goal by the best drop-kicking seen on the Point this year. 64 THE SPECTATOR PHOTO av EDGAR Mock I I '-x In the fourth quarter the Johnstown players broke through the Clearfield line and mussed up the play three successive times. The third time, Connors and Haws broke through the line and blocked a punt. The ball rolled over the Clearfield line and Maley dropped on it, scoring for Johnstown.

THE SPECTATOR 65 PHOTO sv EDGAR Mock J ohnstown-20 Norwin-0 The Thanksgiving game closed the football season of Johnstown High School successfully. With five wins, two ties, and no defeats to her credit, Johnstown came through with flying colors. In the last game of the season Johnstown played Norwin High School and beat them by a score of 20 to 0. The Norwin team was outclassed in every Way and never seriously threatened the local goal. Neither side scored during the first quarter, although the Johnstown team made a number of first downs and kept the ball in Norwin territory. In the second quarter, with the ball on the Norwin 38-yard line, Cahill and Fritz each made 5 yards around the ends, Logue made 1 yard through the line, Seigh tore of a short gain through the line and Fritz, after two long end runs, took the ball over. The play was uneventful till the last quarter. Then Johnstown scored a touch back. The Norwin attempt to punt was poor and after several plays, Haws carried the ball over. The last touchdown was made by Fritz, who carried is across by a long end run. 66 THE SPECTATOR The line-up: Johnstown-20 Speicher ......... ,,,,,, L , F, Gaffney. Capt. .... ...... L . T.

Mr. Jones had an appreciative audience and was in a happy mood. His program was composed of Schu- mann's study in form of variations, Liszt's sonata in B minor, Brahms' D major ballade and B mi- nor rhapsody, Debussy's Pagodes and the C mi- THE SPECTATOR 69 nor nocturne and Etude Op. 25 of Chopin. Mr. Jones showed a depth of expression throughout his program that was gratifying to his friends. He is not unknown to New York. He has played here before, but this recital has given him a new place in the hearts of the many music lovers who heard him. Dan is at present a member of the faculty of the St. Louis Conservatory of Music. -Eben Edwards, '07, and Marietta Mellinger, Ex. '07, of this city were married October seventh. 10-Miss Louise M. Gardner of Providence, R. I., was married October 15, at her home, the Phenix Bap- tist parsonage, to John Lyell Grissett of Baltimore, Md. Mr Grisset and his bride will make their home in Brownsville, Fayette County, Pa. -Mr. and Mrs. Colin U. Miller, of Napoleon street are very happy over the birth of a baby girl October 17th.

And now the days have quickly passed Until the time is here at last Those once freshmen have gained the name Of seniors, now much known to fame! From many varieties this class is made One brilliant gentleman and a studious maid, Other business men and maidens most fair All in this class have a share. The Seniors have had interests in books, not alone In other things also some brilliance has shown, To dramatics they've furnished talents most rare, To athletics such players not found everywhere As now these graduates from high school do go, They wish the faculty this fact could know, They've studied hard, have done their best, And are now most gravely in need of a rest!

The United States National Bank 94 THE SPECTATOR 'TWAS EVER THUS I-tell you I must go, she said, and Martha Rose 'mid the rustling of Silk skirts. She was a Fair girl of German descent. A young countenance, she possessed, in the Bloom of health, and gazing from under pointed eyelashes were those famous Sharpe eyes which worked Wonders on her suitors. 'Tis Small Wonder that she won everybody's heart. Martha was in a quandary. She had just accepted A-dair. She was to live in the woods of the Pfarr North with no other company than a Cook, for a period of two weeks. A Good boy, was Elkins, and Strong. He was the chosen of Martha's flock. To him, she was engaged, and to him she now went to bid a fond adieu. I hope that you get a-Long-well, Martha, he said. Oh Elk, you're always Devlin, was her reply. If you run out of provisions, hook a few potatoes, Nen-tseil a couple melonsf' But do melons grow up there? Well, there are quite a few Tre-mellonsl' I'm going to Hoerle a brick at you if you don't stop that nonsense. If you run short of funds, I have a large supply of Nichols on hand. So they parted for two weeks. Now was the first taste of work. She had to get the iarder replenished. First she hired an old and wounded Fritz for Cook. The Beer'man was called, and a fresh supply of Emmerling delivered. A Hog was killed, and from it, she obtained two of the most Cunning-hams. A Ream of paper supplied the necessary writing mater- ial. When she stepped into her Haynes, a new outing Kelly adorned her head, and a Slick Saylor suit adorned her charming figure. THE SPECTATOR 95 Martha was now in the Pfarr North. 'Twas a beau- tiful May day, and the Golden sun of Noon time danced merrily in her nut-Brown Haire. Her wanderings took her through the woods, and several times she passed a cow. It is a Wonder that it did not Horn-er. Once, while Picking a Berry, a Fox scared her. Another time, While walking through some Reeds, she put her foot in a Marsh. There was a flutter, and the Ruff quack of an unmannerly Bird startled her so, that Wehn a Wolf pass- ed her in search of the possessor of the quack, she fell into the Marsh. A Wilder scene could not be imagined. Martha was Dunn with the Woods. She called the Warden of her estate on the 'phone, and told him to come with the Mitchell and take her home. Wehn he arrived, she had fainted. He gave her a Cupp of Emmerling. Moore, she moaned, Moore. Going home, a Geer broke, and Martha Warned James While going down a hill, that the brakes might Lock-hard. However, they had no further mishap, and reached home in due time.

When earth in winter's white is dressed, And all the plants have gone to rest, And Winter's here in all its zest- It's January! When ponds and lakes are caked in ice, And beavers, ground-hogs, moles and mice Have hunted winter quarters nice- It's January! When trees are outlined black and White, And village roofs are hid from sight, And day is grey, and black is night- It's January! When lads and lassies sport all day, And their spare hours skate away, And sledding, slipping, sliding, play- It's January! When friends, with cordial Welcomes greeted Are in the flreside circle seated, And to the Season praise is meted-- It's January! s i sPEc'rA'roR When thought is given to many lights, And merry times, and snowclad heights, Friendship, good cheer, and snowball fights- It's January! The Broken Resolution Rhoda Cameron, '20 Betty Allison stood on the steps of the gray stone house which she knew as home, waiting for her chum who soon came running up the steps. Betty, she exclaimed half laughing, half annoyed, I just met Jack Horton and he asked me what I'm doing here. Of course I ex- plained that Pm spending the Christmas holiday with you. I declare that's the hundredth time I've answered that question. Betty smiled at the Winsome face. You should be glad, Prue, that it's not the thousandth. But listen. Since to-morrow's New Yearis day, I've decided to make a resolution. Nothing unusual. You've made resolutions every year since I've known you, and- That's four, interrupted the other. As I was saying, continued Prue airily, You have made resolutions every year since I've known you, and never kept one of them. Oh, but this is different, urged Betty seriously. I intend to keep this one, really. Well, what is it? 'Tm going to stop iiirtingf' You, Bets! You stop flirting. Prue leaned weakly against the railing, regarding her friend critically, Bettyl You have stood here too long, and the cold has affected your reason. Come, we'll go in at once. With pretended anxiety she seized the girl's arm and SPECTATOR '7 led her into the house, where she found the family gath- ered around the old-fashioned fire-place. Folks, she announced, Betty has decided to make a resolution. As usual, commented the elder Allison. And that resolution is, Prue deliberately refused to look at theother, to stop flirting. As might be expected, all talked at once. When the noise had subsided, Betty panted, You can say what you like, I don't care. And I think you are all mean. At this contradiction, David, her older brother, laughed. You are not really sore, you know, Bets. It will be a good thing for you too, he continued with a decidedly more-experienced-than-you air. Since I stop- ped my foolishness I have found life much more worth while. Betty eyed him with that gaze which most young men found extremely disconcerting. Oh, Well, her carefully affected tone showed how little she cared for his doctrine, you're only an old bachelor that's so mourn- ful not a girl so much as notices you. Now, stop it, kid. I'm only four years out of Yale. Betty's opinion did not quite please this self-made ex- ample but his sister scorned to notice his plea. Betty resolutely ignored the jibes of the family, say- ing emphatically, Everyone of you thinks I can't do it, but I can, and you'll find out. You think I won't, but I'll show you. She did show them and not once did she violate the resolution. The family wondered, but was silent in her presence. It can't be, declared her father, but Mother, who always understood assured him, It can be, and it is. Betty had always been the leader of her class at the well known college she attended, and naturally she was received enthusiastically. 8 SPECTATOR Various exclamations greeted her as she alighted from the car which had brought her to the college. Pru- dence mercifully said nothing about Betty's resolution un- til that evening, when a group were gathered in the room which the girls shared. Then she said abruptly, Girls, Betty has decided to stop flirting. For a moment there was surprised silence. Then-f Betty Allison stop flirting! Prue have you gone mad? What makes you say that? It's true, asserted Betty, giving her friend no time to answer. True! What do you mean? This from Peggy Mattern. Bets, if you do that there'll be no life left in the crowd. 'No life left,' repeated Betty scornfully. We can have a good time without my flirting, so there's no use talking. I've decided and you can't change my mind. The girls accepted this ultimatum, and before long they became accustomed to the fact that Betty had really stopped. College days passed quickly, for these seniors had much to accomplish, but one Saturday they obtained per- mission to go sleighing. Accompanied by one of the teachers the party left the grounds in a roomy sleigh. The day was cold, and when suddenly they came in sight of a little English tavern all were of the opinion that they should stop. Accordingly, the innkeeper found himself called upon to serve hot chocolate to a group of hungry, lively girls. Suddenly Betty turned her head and sur- prised a young man who had been watching her persist- ently though not obviously. With a slight gesture of an- noyance that he had been caught, he averted his glance, but feeling that the girl's eyes were still upon him he again turned and faced her squarely. A blush, a little smile, and a shy drooping of her heavy lashes-that was all, but Betty had broken her resolution. With a gasp she SPECTATOR 9 realized it, but not before he had returned the smile. Once more in the sleigh the girls, who had been skep- tical were triumphant, and Betty heart-broken she de- clared. Never mind, Bets, Prue who had been so sure that Betty would do exactly what she had done, was now com- forting. It's only one. That doesn't matter. But I was sure I wouldn't do it again, Betty almost sobbed. Here Marcia Stone took a part in the conversation. Do you girls know who he is? she demanded in a voice full of awe. No, who? the chorus answered her. That's Keith Hampton, Marcia continued impres- sively. He graduated from the Harvard Law School five years ago and he's one of the best lawyers I know., He's rich, too. How do you know all this? demanded Prue bellig- erently. Once having taken up the cudgels for her friend, she proved a valiant defender. Why, he was the lawyer for my brother in his case against Mardon Graham. Well, at any rate, interrupted Betty, he did not know me. But Betty had not counted on young Hampton, and at the next dance held by the class he was presented. The Dean of the college gravely and formally introduced him to Betty. A blush reddended her cheeks as they clasped hands for the first time, but her natural poise soon set her at ease. That was the beginning, and before the year was over they were the best of friends. Ik Pk wk S' ak il lk Ill 42 Keith was very much down-hearted as he watched the train which carried the girl away disappear. Her last laugh and good-bye cheered him, however, for she had 10 SPECTATOR asked him to visit her soon. A tender smile flitted about his lips as he recalled the tears which glistened in her eyes as she bade farewell to the college where she had spent four happy years, and he promised himself that her tears Would be dried and a happy smile light her eyes the next time she saw him. He was sure of himself, man- fashion, and certain that she would not refuse what he in- tended to ask her. Ili lk Sk HK Fl' HF PF Pk SK It Was abright May day. The sun sparkled on the leaves, and a little brook splashed gaily over the stones. Betty and Keith were standing under a Wide-spread apple tree which Was pink with blossoms. Something had hap- pened to make the girl's cheeks very red and the man was triumphantly happy. I had made a resolution to stop flirting, Betty was saying, her face turned away from the other's searching glance Evidently this Was but a continuation of a re- cital started some time before Of course nobody be- lieved that I could keep it and I decided to show them. Everything went Well until that day I saw you. And- and afterward I felt so ashamed and wondered what you'-d think of me, for with you it was different -the voice faltered and stopped. Keith laughed happily. Why, Betty, girl, the only thing I thought was that I should find out who you Were. For I swear I loved you even then. But don't let that broken resolution trouble you. I'm mighty glad you did break it just once. But I Warn you, he caught her in his arms and turned her round facing him, I Warn you, little girl, never While I'm around shall you do any more flirting. ' And she never did. SPECTATOR ll Monkey Business Donald Martin, '21 What'll become of us? thought Mrs. Smith, as she opened the door and looked on the porch. The milk bottle was gone. Not more than ten minutes before she had seen the boy who delivered the milk place it on the porch and then leave. There had been a light fall of snow during the night leaving about a quarter inch of white flakes on the ground. There was a small imprint made by the bottle in the snow, the footprints of the milk boy and-nothing else. For the last two days the Smiths had been missing ar- ticles from their porch. First, a small package of meat wandered mysteriously away. This had aroused the curi- osity of Mrs. Smith but she did not worry about it. A few hours later, a scrub brush followed the meat. The roof of the Smith porch slanted upward. It was supported by beams that ran parallel to the iioor. By climbing a step ladder Mrs. Smith often put things to cool on top of these rafters. That day she put a small cake on one of these beams, thinking that whoever took the other things could not take the cake. At dinner time, however, it was gone. In the evening she spoke of her losses to her husband. Mir. Smith would not believe it. At the supper table Mrs. Smith turned to her son Jimmy and said: Jimmy, run out on the porch and get that little jar of jelly that I left out to cool. . I can't find it, ma, came from Jimmy two minutes later. It's on the right hand side of the washer, facing the big tree. Tain't, neither. 12 SPECTATOR Come on in, I'll have to get it myself, she said im- patiently. A minute's silence followed her exit to the porch, then, Our jelly's gone. This time Mr. Smith was interested. He searched the rafters and looked up into the tree which grew so close to the house that he could easily step from the porch onto it. Nothing was there. That evening Mr. Smith attended lodge meeting. When he came home, as he stepped on the porch his hat was swept from his head. He looked around in astonish- ment, but could see nothing, because it was dark. He en- tered the house to get a searchlight to locate this peace disturber. When he came back to the porch, he was hit in the back of his neck. The missile was his hat. Turning in the direction of the blow he saw a monkey grinning at him. He caught it after a half hour's strenuous work, and locked it in the cellar. The next day he advertised for its owner. The ad- vertisement was answered by an Italian organ grinder who had Losta da monk. The Italian paid for the add, obtained his monkey and left. Four days later the Smiths found the brush and the bottle of milk on the porch roof where the monkey had taken them. - e A This cleared the bailing mystery that had worried Mrs. Smith, puzzled Mr. Smith, and scared little Jimmy. SPECTATOR 13 Gloria's Chance Dorothy E. Wilder, '21 Gloria de Cordova bemoaned to herself the monoto- nous life she led. , . There's nothing to stir me up, absolutely nothing to do, she murmured again and again. Day after day it's the same old routine. I get up, I have my meals, I take a lonely walk, I come back and read or practice, I see Uncle John in the evening and then I go to bed. Oh, the monot- ony of it all ! In fact, the girl did lead a solitary life for a person of eighteen. Her greatest pleasure was reading and so, in the privacy of her own room, she acted the parts of her favorite heroine just for her own gratification. Sometimes, however, she used the long mirrored din- ing room for her platform. There she would curtsey to her ancestors, the dead de Cordovas. The room was de- void of any furniture except a table and two chairs. The portraits were the sole remnants of the de Cordovas' past wealth. Gloria never told her uncle of these performances because he would not have understood. Uncle John was a busy man who was striving to repair the lost family fortunate. Perhaps it was the Spanish blood in G1oria's veins that made her hold her head so proudly. At any rate it was with true Spanish grace that she dressed in her dead mother's clothes as she acted her favorite parts. Upon this particular day she stood before one of the long mirrors, dressed gaily for a performance. I wonder if Sophia looked like this, she thought. Over her shoulders she had thrown a black lace man- tilla and had fastened it to her shining black hair by ia single red rose., In her hand she carried a large black 14 SPECTATOR Spanish fan while she held her skirts with a haughty, well-bred grace. Directly above her was the portrait of an ancestor clad in plumed hat, slashed doublet, velvet knee-breeches, and buckled shoes. It was to him that she now turned her attention. You do me too much honor, sir, when you ask me for my hand, but I shall not refuse. It is Well, sounded a Voice behind her. Gloria turned and saw a man standing in the door- way. His face was ghastly white. His entire appearance suggested exhaustion. Across his forehead was a deep jagged wound from which the blood slowly oozed. Gloria knew herself to be alone in the house except for the stranger, and repressing a scream, demanded, What do you mean, sir, by intruding upon me? If you are a thief, behold! There is nothing of value here. I am not a thief. I am simply followed and, seeing this door open, 1' walked in, as my pursuers are close behind. Something in the man's voice compelled her atten- tion. She saw for the first time that he was young, ex- tremely young and, despite the wound, very handsome. But why are you pursued? she questioned. For killing a man. His voice trembled with 'emo- tion as he spoke. She shrank back for a moment and then a look in his eyes decided her. Follow me. You could have chosen no better place than this house. She led him through several rooms until they came to a thick mahogany panel. Pushing this aside, they step- ped into a small chamber, dark and cheerless. No one knows of this room save myself, Gloria as- sured him. You will be well sheltered here. But, she said, pointing to a crucifix which hung from the wall, SPECTATOR 15 before that, declare to me that you are innocent. He turned towards the cross and bowed reverently. Before God, I swear. A sudden burst of emotion overcame Gloria. I'll help you all I can. You may stay here untill bring bandages for your wound. And-and-senorita, he said softly, if I might have some food? Of course! How thoughtless of me! When did you last eat? Four days ago and then only a small piece of bread, was the reply. Oh! Gloria breathed in pity, and disappeared. Soon she returned with food and Water. I can never thank you, senorita-- Gloria, she added. The next day the man's wound became worse and Gloria feared that she would be compelled to tell her uncle, as the ravings of the fever-stricken man were loud. She shrank from the thought as Uncle John might not be- lieve the man's story or sympathize with him. However, that evening the delirium passed and the man began to improve. Every day Gloria carried food and water to him and at night she lay awake, trying to determine a plan to prove his innocence. The opportunity came one after- noon when the chief-of-police, a friend of her uncle, was present for lunch. During the conversation he gave an exciting account of a young man who, having been accused of murder, was proved innocent. But, said the chief in conclusion, the boy can not be found. The story interested Gloria's uncle. He desired to know more about the man but the chief was unable to fur- nish other details except that he was the son of a million- aire. It seemed that his father had accused him of being 16 SPECTATOR useless and good-for-nothing. In an effort to prove him- self worth something the boy had associated with men Whom he trusted but who were, in reality, grafters of the worst type. They dragged him lower and lower, until finally they fastened on him the guilt for a murder, com- mitted by one of their band of ruffians. Gloria, who listened breathlessly, rushed to the se- cret chamber, full of joy. You are free, she told the man, and I shall prove it. Leading him into the dining room she presented him to her uncle and the chief of police, and announced: Here is the innocent man. ! Astonished at the queer spectacle, both men were silent. Speak. Is this not the right person? Gloria de- manded anxiously. Yes, it is he, the chief at last declared. Of course, she had to relate the amazing story. When it was all told the man took leave of his benefactress. Miss de Cordova, I have no words at my command to thank you for- your care of me-but I shall never forget. Soon afterwards he was gone. Left alone with her uncle, Gloria heaved a deep sigh of contentment. At last she had had an adventure. SPECTATOR 17 Principal.'s Page PUBLIC EDUCATION Education is winning friends each day. Enrollment in all types of educational projects is greater this year than ever before in the history of education. Public edu- cation is undertaken on a scale of such magnitude as was undreamed even as recently as a decade ago. Communi- ties seem to be in competition with other communities in the rush to give their immature the variety of opportuni- ties Which will best serve the ambitions of all classes. The United States Government is pioneer in one aspect at least. To those individuals who gave of their life or limb to perpetuate the principles upon which democratic goven- ment is founded, the greatest compensation which it feels able to give is schooling and training. In some instances, the government is paying partially disabled soldiers a monthly salary of as much as 5150.00 for merely attend- ing schools. By such procedure the government feels that it is better preparing them, not only to earn a living but to enjoy a life. If it is a good investment for the govern- ment to provide schooling and pay partially disabled men a salary while attending school, it certainly is an unan- swerable argument for those Who have been more shel- tered to benefit by the opportunities for schooling which are open to them. There is a determination on part of school patrons to improve school facilities. Better buildings are being voted, improved instruction is being provided, a broader, more varied program of study is being outlined. Pupils will respond to such advanced procedureg they will grasp the opportunities. The cause of education will go for- ward. Education will continue to make friends from without and from within. be ieigh bnhnul ,iifntatur Vol. 22 JOHNSTOWN, PA., JANUARY, 1920 No. 4 Subscription Price, 81.50 per Year Per Copy, 25 Cents fmsiturial ,Staff Editor in Chief, HELEN VOGEL, '20 Associate Editor Jokes ELVIN TEITELBAUM, '20 PAUL KAYLOR, '20 Literary Editor JOHN KOONTZ' 20175 MARY C.

In the literal translation they mean Always Faithful but in the bearing on civili- zation they carry a potent meaning. As they stand now, in their lofty position, they seem to remind us, constantly, of the supreme duty of mankind toward mankind, of stu- dent toward student. They aim for the popular progress of high ideals. And since these words have been set down as the motto of our school we should become faithful and remain forever followers of this great star, These words, Semper Fidelis have been rightfully placed above the 1ion's head, for, just as the lion is the king of animals, so this motto, the constant reminder of fidelity, is the king of aspirations, the principal one of the many moral possessions necessary in the making of real men and Women. How divine, how democratic is this magnanimous phrase, Semper Fidelis! It is the .ocomotive of heavenly ideals, the potential combination of the human and democratic characteristics of good men. Thus we see that Semper Fidelis is indeed our moral guide in this advancing age of civilization. Its followers are seen in the great men of history-Washington, Lin- coln, Shakespeare, Emerson, Goethe, Roosevelt and many others who were Faithful, who used their powers hon- estly for the benefit of humanity. Those who ignore Semper Fidelis are seen in such men as the Hohenzoll- erns, the Hapsburgs, and many others who sought domin- ion by ravaging brutality but failed to be Semper Fi- delis to God and to man. And now, fellow students, are you Semper Fidelis to yourselves by being so to your studies, to your teachers, 20 SPECTATOR to your friends, and then to the world itself? Are you at school to pass by cheat or to learn by study? Is your school life a preparation for society or is it a foundation for your work that will be a unit in the great union of democracy? Just as men who have not been Semper Fidelis have been overpowered and then effaced from the ever increasing pages of fame, so students, who are not Semper Fidelis to the school and consequently to the world, should be debarred from school society and activities. But let us blot out any possibility of being shunned. Let us, therefore, reap the benefit of this high ideal Semper Fidelis. E T LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE What of the future? What does it have in store for us? In that dim, hazy, indefinite beyond are there golden opportunities, inconceivable joys, delightful possibilities, or are there crushing disappointments, overwhelming sor- rows, sad disillusions? That is the eternal question. Suppose we could gaze into Father Times crystal and see reflected there the future of our graduates. Some of them who have been shining lights in High School will enter higher institutions of learning because of an insati- ablest thirst for knowledgeg there they will strive assidu- ously for greater mental advancement. Later, we can see them filling responsible positions in the busy world as teachers, doctors, lawyers, lecturers, business people- perhaps even a genius like Shakespeare or Paderewski will develop. Others, who have constituted the Hunks and do-nothings, disdaining the attainment of further knowledge, ill-equipped, will enter the world. There, handicapped, they must fight its mighty battles, the great- est of which is the struggle for existence. Drifting along indifferently with the current, either they will become victims of circumstances or be swallowed up in the shadows of obscurity. This is a pessimistic prophecyg SPECTATOR 21 fortunately, these graduates are few. These, of course, are the extremes. There is a third group-the average, well-meaning, conscientious students Whose ambitions do not aspire so high as college, but whose scruples will not permit them to drift. We see them leading honest, re- spectable lives, working faithfully and ultimately attain- ing happiness. One might remark, That's all bosh! Nobody is able to look into the future. Certainly, for most of us are not granted the privilege of seeing it through a crystal glass. Though predictions regarding the future may seem futile, yet it is a Wise policy to plan for it. Planning involves a reasonable amount of ambition. Now ambition, like ideals, cannot be grasped physically. However, just as we can be guided by our ideals, We can be led by ambi- tion, the realization of which is embodied in planning. Why not use it to advantage by planning our future? We might well ask ourselves, To which group shall we belong? Our future is before usg what it is depends upon us as individuals. As we gaze into the crystal glass, what do we behold? H. V. I 22 SPECTATOR SCHOOL NEWS The new term beginning January 5th, has brought a number of changes in high school. 259 pupils have en- tered, of which 37 are Term III pupils from the Morrell- ville Junior High School.

A big Mass Meeting was held in the Auditorium No- vember 26 preceding the football game with Bellefonte, on Thanksgiving Day. Captain Cramer, Mr. Cooper, Charles Colbert, and Coach Beeler gave enthusiastic speeches as well as the members of the team, who played their best football for J. H. S. this fall. At the Chapel exercises of December 3, Ingeborg Tappert delivered an address on the Campaign Against Tuberculosis, which opened the following Friday at all the Public Schools. The outcome of this Christmas Seal Campaign in the High School was excellent. The num- ber sold totaled 12,462, and special praise is to be ex- tended to everyone who laid pennies to block the advance of tuberculosis among the people of this country. Dr. K. D. Macmillan, President of Wells College, spoke to the lower classes Thursday, December 4. He spoke of the great necessity of Continued Preparation in colleges or universities. SPECTATOR 23 At a meeting of the Class of 1920, Mr. Black an- nounced that an opportunity would be extended to any senior to prepare specially to take college entrance exami- nations under the New Plan. Under this New Plan the candidate receives information that requires him or her to take comprehensive examinations in four subjects se- lected by the committee on admission of the university, college, or scientiiic school concerned. The Senior Chapel of the mid-term graduating class George Sheesley conducted the opening exercises. Sara of 195 was held in the Auditorium December 10th. Statler rendered vocal selections. Paul Cupp gave trom- bone selections. Herbert Fritz, President of the 19V3 Class, gave the farewell address. Donald Eppley, Presi- dent of the 2015 Class responded. The program con- cluded with the Irish playlet, A Pot of Broth, given by the Term VIII members of the Public Reading class, under the direction of Miss Fiske. y EXCHANGES The Spectator greets all the old exchanges and will gladly welcome all new ones.

Last year the team was very successful, finishing well to- ward the head of the list. This year the team expects to do even better and make a run for the championship. A large number of candidates turned up at the call for prac- tice and from them has been selected a promising squad to represent the High School. With good material at his command, we can readily expect Coach Beeler to turn out a team that will be a credit to the school. For some years the support the student body has ac- corded the team has not been all it should have been. This year We want more enthusiasm and loyalty. Let us give the team the backing necessary to a winner. We know the part We are to play. Letus carry it through as we should. A fine schedule has been arranged for this season. In the list are some of J ohnstown's old rivals. All of the teams are fast ones and some hot games can be expected. High School, 375 Alumni, 45 Johnstown High School opened her basketball sea- son with the Alumni team composed of former stars of the High School. The purpose of the game was to give Coach Beeler a line on his men and although the High School team suffered defeat by a score of 45 to 37, the desired information was secured. Several of the team showed SPECTATOR 27 real speed and taking into consideration the fact that it was a green team, the playing was good. The machine- like team work of an experienced team was missing but that will come with experience. Red Shomo at center for the Alumni team, was one of the features of the game. The tall center was in every play and showed a deadly accuracy in his shots. Wil- liams at forward for the Alumni also put up 'a fine game.

Musing one wintry evening, By the fireplace, all alone I saw my friends and classmates Whom, at High School I had known. In my dream I saw the building, Red brick, with vines o'er grown, I saw the large and friendly door, And the steps of massive stone. I thought of the happy hours spent With my teachers and classmates there In our chapel and our classes Joys and pleasures we did share. I recalled the delightful parties Where we formed our friendships dear, Our games and our athletics When we triumphed mid many a cheer. Then came to me a memory Of the lessons taught us there, High ideals and proud ambitions Which would help us everywhere. At last my class was parting With a regretful backward glance, But inspired by noble teachings With steadfast courage to advance. And we promised as we parted And into the wide world came, That to dear Johnstown High School Our deeds should bring lasting fame. 34 SPECTATOR Class History Richard C. Ream '201f2 It has been said that the happiest years of one's life are his school years. As Seniors, we are entering our last weeks in the High School and in the near future our school days will be but a memory. As we recall the past four years we experience some degree of satisfaction for our successes, yet we regret that our school career is com- ing to an end. When, on the day following New Year, 191615 the one hundred and seventy-seven members of our class report- ed at the High School, we enjoyed the distinction of being the youngest class that had ever enrolled in the school. We were instructed in filling out our programs and became acquainted with the customs and routine of our future life. The next day, however, was our real introduction into high school life. Owing to the kindness of a faculty member we had been informed concerning the mysteries of the location of the rooms and their numbers. Thus one of the embarrassing difficulties of a Freshie was re- moved. Those first few days brought enough excitement to suffice for an entire term. Believing ourselves wise be- ings, the grins and comments of the upper classmen puz- zled us until we realized that the sarcastic remarks were directed at us. These soon humbled us and we under- stood that, after all, We were merely Freshies. Later we found that one of the characteristics of a Freshman was the racing from one room to another to avoid being late for class. As the term advanced the discovery of this fault was the cause of an undue number of 60 minute slips for the more adventurous members of our class. Nevertheless our impressions were not only of fun and perplexity in imitating the much esteemed Sopho- mores. We were soon initiated into the mysteries of SPECTATOR 35 Algebra, which, along with other studies occupied much of our time. But, at the end of the year we emerged from the fray greatly benefited and feeling Worthy of being Sophomores. Although regarded as suitable objects for jokes, our contributions to school activities won recog- nition. Greatly reduced in numbers we came back as Sopho- mores to the now familiar halls, determined to make the Freshies-how elated We were that we no longer bore that name-realize their place. We developed surpris- ing willingness to tell the whereabouts of various rooms to anxious inquirers. This sport soon gave place to the more important work of combating the more and more difficult studies. It was during our first half year as Sophomores that Mr. Stockton left us to assume the greater responsibil- ities as superintendent of schools. Inspired and strength- ened by his parting Words We passed through the sum- mer vacation and resumed our Work in the fall under new guidance. At last the time arrived when we really became Ju- niors, a stage in our career which raised us above the petty quarrels of Sophomores and Freshmen. While still lost in the glories of being third year students we were in- vited by the then Term VI class to assist in preparing for the annual Junior-Senior Reception. Displaying much enthusiasm in this, our first function, We Worked hard and turned out well for the reception. After it was over all agreed that they had never had a finer time and, all the more refreshed, we Once .more turned to our studies. Upon our return to school in the fall of 1919 we reach- ed the stage where definite class activities began. Several of our members became strong players on the varsity football team and others found places on the second squad. Soon after the opening of the term the class or- 36 SPECTATOR ganized and chose for its officers: Donald Eppley, pres- identg Bruce Campbell, vice-president, later succeeded by Louise Sharpeg Eileen Barnhart, secretary, and Charles Berkebile, treasurer. After a term of hard work We reached the final stage in our school history. At last we were Seniors. Realiz- ing that through them the standards of the school are measured the members of the class faced the difficulties and responsibilities which belong to Seniors. Once more We centered our interest on a Junior-Senior Reception. This time We were entertained instead of entertaining. The affair proved a tremendous success and those pres- ent agreed that it was a delightful function. As spring approached the class decided to hold a picnic. A date was set and the place agreed on Was Rec- reation Park, Windber. We arrived at the park in the late afternoon, and, forgetting our dignified position as Seniors, We engaged in various sports until time for the grand climax-the Heats. The persons in charge of these treasures found it unnecessary to summon us to partake of the results of their labors. They had experienced much trouble in transporting the refreshments to the grounds, but -so far as 'We know, there was no trouble ex- perienced in bringing anything back. With the approach of night an orchestra struck up some merry airs which we could not resist and our feet kept time to the music the remainder of the evening. The autumn of 1920 marked the beginning of our last semester. One of the first acts of a busy half year Was to reorganize. The officers chosen Were: Edward Ditt- mar, presidentg John Koontz, vice presidentg Dorothy Munroe, secretary, and Thomas Schuchman, treasurer. This year has resulted in a grand triumph for our class in athletics. The football team has had six of our members on its roster and much of the success of the team has been due to their zeal and efforts. SPECTATOR 37 One of the most enjoyable fetes in our school history was the reception given to the members of the Altoona football team. A large crowd attended. Whatever trouble the class experienced in preparing for the evening was fully compensated by the pleasure derived from the danc- ing and the delicious refreshments. Two more pleasant evenings will go down in the memory of the class. The first was a cornroast at the Berkebile farm where we spent a merry evening in games and in enjoying the luscious corn, the satisfying hot- dogs and the appetizing marshmallows. The other big entertainment was a party for the members of the class only. A fine program of entertainment furnished much fun after which the center of attraction was the gymnas- ium floor where the remainder of the evening passed in dancing. The members Of our class have shown their ability not only in athletics and entertainments but they also have 2 fine record scholastically. Several of our members have been engaged in Spectator work, and, of a class mem- bership of sixty-seven, fourteen names appear on the honor roll, this being a remarkably high percentage. Several weeks before Christmas a delightful comedy, entitled Mice and Men was selected for our class play. The cast, eager to justify the confidence placed in them by the class, has been hard at work to make the play a success. Following the play, only a few more ceremon- ies remain then We shall be alumni of the school we know so well and with which so much of our personal his- tory has been connected. We feel deep appreciation for our parents who have urged us on to greater efforts, who have sacrificed so much that we might remain in school, and to the faculty Whose aid and support have enabled us to overcome the difficulties which we have encounter- ed. In future years, whatever or wherever we may be, 38 SPECTATOR in addition to having the memories of our high school al- ways remain a constant and undimmed reminder of the past, may we especially keep in mind that motto, selected by us while still in school, A name in life is the only for- tune worth finding. The Class Will We, the class of nineteen hundred twenty and one half being of sound mind, memory and understanding do hereby make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament in manner and form following: Section I. To the faculty who has shared our j0ys and our sor- rows, in sixty minute sessions after school, we give and be- queath our good will and profound thanks for their un- tiring efforts in our behalf. We also wish them the best o' luck for the future. Section II. To the class of '21 we give and bestow our school spirit with the wish that it be used to further the class and J. H. S. in everything pertaining to school life. We also impart to you our Senior dignity and poise, so neces- sary in keeping over ambitious Freshmen in place. We trust that it will be treasured and passed on to future Senior classes. The above mentioned dignity and poise, though slightly worn, is still serviceable and, with few alterations, will last for many years. Section III. To the Sophomores of our school we divise and impart the responsibility to serve the coming Seniors with a diligence worthy of their position. We admonish you, forget not your duties to the school in general and the Senior class in particular, make your reception of a type that will be an honor to the school and a delight to all. SPECTATOR 39 Section IV. To the Freshmen we do hereby bequeath and bestow the following: One. Freedom from your present position in school. You have finished the first year in J. H. S, with-credit -maybeg you have been the target one year for upper classmen, now you in turn are taking one step upward to that position to be envied-Seniors-but beware lest this new-found power make you over ambitious. Two. We trust to you the most valuable activities of our school, the activities that make our school known to fame. Among these are our teams in football, basketball, and, if fate wills, in track. Upon those new members of our school depends the life of these several teams. We hope that you will not allow these activities to die. Section V. In view of the present situation we do hereby declare that all moneys left in the treasury, not exceeding the sum of thirty cents plus war tax, be used as the founda- tion for a fund that will accomplish the following: One: It will provide for the raising of the seats and the lowering of the door knobs. Two: It will provide maids to act as escorts through the halls. , Three: It will supply a stock of pacificators to reduce the noise in Chapel and Study Hall. Thus we devise and declare a fund that will provide for the welfare of the future Freshmen of this institution. Section VI. Whereas, we this class of 20W are in possession of certain valuable personal belongings. We do hereby be- stow, bequeath and devise, said possessions as follows: Puss Cooper's powers of argumentation to Don Martin. Don Eppley's Spanish to any one who thinks he can handle it, 40 SPECTATOR Gump Gocher's vocal powersuto Speedo Conway Cyou have our most profound sympathy, Speedo. J Hog Cauffiel's curly hair to Killer Logue. Trombone Tommy's position in the orchestra to Cornet Clarence. ' Royden Nichol's checks to any pale Freshman. Charles Berkebile's appetite to Fat Dibert. Edward Dittmar's bright ideas to Plug Conrad. Section VII. We appoint the class of '21, our successor, the executor of this, our last will and testament. In witness thereof we have hereunto subscribed our name the seventeenth day of December in the year of our Lord and graduation 192015. fSignedJ Class of '20V2, per John Koontz. Witnesses Harry Kline I Richard Ream I Attorney D. B. Lockner A PROPHECY OF THE 19201!2 CLASS. Dwight Funk, '201f2. In the summer of 1932 I started from my ofiice in Chicago on a combined business and pleasure trip. I de- cided to make the trip to New York by rail. While sitting in the train, I became engaged in a coni versation with a man near me. He was a westerner, com- ing east to spend his vacation. He informed me that he had been a Pennsylvanian. We recognized each other, I discovering him to be Tom Hammers, Who owned a par- rot ranch in Texas. As he had no definite plans for his vacation, he decided to accompany me. Upon our arrival in New York We stepped into a taxi which conveyed us to a hotel. The letters 'J. C. C03 SPECTATOR 41 printed on the car represented the John Cook Taxi Co., said to be the largest in New York. Here was another of our classmates. In the hotel lobby I picked up a copy of 'Life,' and I found that John Koontz, the Hbrainless wonder of our class was editor of the well known magazine. Mr. Koontz probably gained the position through his experience as Spectator Joke Editor. After dinner we visited the Hip podrome. The program was in two parts. Part one was a concert by the Schuchman Band, which was directed by Tom Schuch- man, former Jazz King of the trombone. Solomon Stahl, Raymond Dishong and Clarence Gillinger played in the band. The program rendered consisted of such classical numbers as Oh, By Jingo, and the latest popular airs. The band was contemplating a tour of all large cities in the United States, including Salix, Dunlo and Elton. Part two consisted of a short musical comedy entitled, Why Slip and Fall When You Can Wear Rubber Heels. Chris- tine Bruce, the girl with the beautiful eyelashes, was the leading lady. In the chorus were Mary Goldstein, Mar- garet Hoff, Dorothy Jones, Florence Strayer and Mabel Kinzey. Leroy Purbaugh, whose funny face kept the audience in laughter, was Jewish comedian. Petite James Resley, who wore a dainty number twelve shoe was color- ed comedian. His clog dancing was done to music payed by Guy Volpitto, famous harmonica virtuoso from Para- guay, South America. We returned to the hotel, well sat- isfied with theh evening's entertainment. The following morning we went down to the harbor. We arrived just in time to see the steamer Tomato Can, come into port. Granted permission to inspect the ship we went aboard. We found Capt. John Benson busied with his duties, but he agreed to lunch with us that noon. We left the ship and on the pier we met Frank Galasso. Frank was returning from Sunny Italy with his bride. 42 SPECTATOR They were accompanied by William Unger, but fate had not dealt so kindly f?J with him as it had with Frank. Frank was practicing fjust practicingj medicine in Johns- town, while William was a scientific ash hauler in Upper Yoder township. These men had crossed the ocean on Capt. Benson's shipg they agreed he was a brave captain and noted for his gallantry toward ladies. While waiting for Benson, I purchased a newspaper and read that a noted engineer named Edward Dittmar had presented plans to build a bridge across the Atlantic. This dream of Edward's was due, probably, to the fact that a short time before he had been kicked in the head by a mule. Daredevil crosses Niagara in a barrel for the eighth time. This headline appeared over an article concerning Llweyn Spicher's hair-raising tricks at the Falls. Llweyn showed signs of such a career in High School when he used to dash along in his old Reo at fifty per. John joined us while I was reading the article and we left the pier and went to a restaurant. During the afternoon we visited the Jack of All Trades Academy. The Registrar, Donald Eppley, in- formed us that although the institution was but eight years old, it already had an enrollment of eleven pupils! Two of these were Esther Strong and Lila Vallance, who were members of the Rosedale Surveyor's School for the Blind. Both were taking summer courses. Mr. Eppley had'on his staff of teachers Miss Margaret Witt and Helen Rodgers, instructors in the bricklayer's department. As we left the Academy we got on a surface car to take us to the station. In the red-headed conductor who ordered us to move lively, Tom recognized Russel Cooper. Russel impressed the importance of his position upon us, but he gradually lost his haughty manner as he pointed out various objects of interest. He indicated a man stand- ing on a corner selling hair tonic, as Howard Culp. The SPECTATOR 43 preparation, he explained, was furniture polish with a hair tonic label. After the men had lost their hair from the use of the stuff, Howard would appear with toupees for sale. From a large building flashed the sign, Ruff, Caufliel Co. Brokers. Russel said these two persons had complete control of the entire American Ash Trust. He next showed us a window displaying a sign, Cobaugh and Singer, Hair Dressers. Mary Cobaugh and Marion Singer had earned great reputations in this work. Their reputations was due to the fact that they were able to dress women's hair more ridiculously than any other per- sons of their trade. They were able to dress hair even more ridiculously than they had dressed their own when they were pupils in High School. As we approached the station we bade good-bye to Russel and Benson. We traveled several hours, on a westbound train before werecognized a man across from us as Stewart Gocher. Stewart was a traveling salesman for the Smokeless Cigar Co. This company had just se- cured the services of two experts, Louise Ogle and Gladys Beam, whose pictures were to advertise the company's goods. Through his travelling, Stewart had come in con- tact with many persons and from him I learned that James Handsome Rishell was posing for the Cluett, Peabody Co. in Arrow Collar advertisements. Dorothea Keenan and Ruth Rightnour were nurses in the Prospect Hospital for the Feeble Minded. Zorka Mamula, a mezzo soprano fwithout mezzoh, was appearing in concert at the Daisy- town Summer Garden. Richard Ream was living a sim- ple life in the wilds of Seward and had Won more popu- larity than his only rival, Horatio Alger, Jr. His latest book entitled, The Adventures of James Bird in the Bos- well Slums, had caused much comment, especially since James had become a famous explorer about these regions. Stewart left the train at Altoona. The next stop was Johnstown where we spent a few hours. 44 SPECTATOR On Main Street we found George Richardson col- lecting tickets at the door of the Palace Theater. The girl in the box office was Neva Harrison. Neva was an arithmetic shark and I suppose it was her ability for making change that secured the position she had. We Walked into the First National Bank Building. From the directory I learned that Dr. Burrel Johnson was a Poultry Dentist. In the office of the Johnstown So- cial Reforms Service we found three desks occupied by Marianna Miltenberger, Elizabeth Pribeck and Mary Martha Rinehold. They had charge of the Prospect, Moxham and Conemaugh Borough districts, respectively. Florence Wolfhope was located on the fourth story. Miss Wolfhope had invented a freckle remover. Her book- keepers, Eleanor Birk and Margaret Marks were kept busy with the extensive interests of the Work. Mary Clarke was Miss Wolfhope's demonstrator. She testi- fied that all her freckles had disappeared under the magic preparation. We left the bank building and Walked across Frank- lin St., where the Clavvson Dental Parlors were located. Norman Clawson, whose concrete and mud fillings were said to be highly satisfactory, was the proprietor. In the office We were surprised to see Marcella Bishop act- ing as stenographer. Norman told us his business was made possible by the services of Eileen Barnhart, who was his assistant. He also stated that Charles Berke- bile had just been elected Coach of the Meyersdale High School Croquet Team. We feared that we should miss the westbound train so we hurried to the station. After several hours of rid- ing vve reached Cleveland. Here We visited the Ober- Monroe Circus. The circus was a vast one, said to be worth more than 5430! The chief attractions with the exception of the proprietors-were Helen Allen and James Livingstone. Helen was a Well known dancer and James SPECTATOR 45 being double-jointed, gave some wonderful exhibitions of his skill. After this performance, I found my way back to the station where I took the train for Chicago. Although I had not accomplished much in business, I found the trip delightful because I had met many old classmates and had learned the whereabouts of others.

Because someljone had once told her that she had musical talent Mary developed an acute attack of what she told herself was artistic tem- perament. No one she decided, understood her. She was doomed to live her life in majestic solitude because of her individual mind and soul. But why make this a story of the peculiar characteristics of one sixteen-year- old person? Are not the thoughts of all much the same? Have they not all that same feeling of isolation, of being misunderstood? Perhaps they do not all have the desire for artistic temperament but the majority have one, be- cause he draws a little better than the other students in his class, another, because he can sing, and still another, because he has had the principal part in a school play. Any talent, even the smallest touch, is a sign for the de- velopment of artistic temperament, with all its eccen- tricities. At this time sixteen has an overwhelming desire to be thought worthy of the attentions and colnfidences which appear to be the exclusive possessions of the older people. Sixteen moreover is highly sensitive, and to make this harder to bear, it has a gigantic ideal of its own importance. It is of the opinion that the world is its personal possession although no one else has, as yet, seen fit to recognize its claim. It is at this I'll show them stage of life that great actors, noted artists, eminent authors, and other charac- ters of world wide fame, are created, in imagination. Six- teen pictures to itself, how, in after years, successful and 50 SPECTATOR noted it will condescend to speak to the people who now do not know of its existence. It is odd that these dreams grow less and less frequent as sixteen gives place to sev- enteen, to twenty and thirty. One of the curses of sixteen is being introduced to older people. They either think sixteen too unimportant to remember beyond the present moment, or, what is much worse, they say, Well! well! so this is the little one. My, how you've grown. Why I can remember when- and so on, and so on, and so on, to the infinite embarrass- ment of the poor unfortunate victim who wanted, so much, to be treated as an equal. Sixteen loses even its saving sense of humor on these occasions. So rare are the people who understand sixteen that the kindly person who shows a touch of sympathy has gained for himself a faithful, but, at the same time a trou- blesome friend for he will be constantly sought out to lis- ten to the trivial as well as to the innermost thoughts of the sixteen-year-old. Is it surprising that sixteen is called the awkward age when it is conscious of such a multitude of strange emotions? It never knows whether it is going to be treat- ed as a child, or as an adult, therefore it is at a loss which course to take. As a result it frequently chooses the wrong one only to appear awkward and embarrassed. After a few disconcerting occasions an uncontrollable blush is developed, which only serves to increase the dif- ficulties. It is counted as one of the characteristics of sixteen, and of all the years in a person's life this one has the greatest number of characteristics, peculiar to itself. Only in dreams and poetry is sixteen counted as the most precious and beautiful time of life. ln reality it is the ghost that haunts our after years-supplying us with the hopeless task of trying not to remember the time wasted inaimless dreaming, and the opportunities passed by, of endeavoring not to recall all the silly things we did SPECTATOR 51 when we were sixteen, and what people must have thought of us. It is possible that they still laugh over the suierings of sixteen, for they easily forget their own ex- periences at a similar age. Pain Eascs Pain Esther Strong, '201A. It was raining in Honolulu. The quaint little building trembled and quivered so that Charmion Browne expected to find herself among its ruins any minute. She was alone but not afraid. Five years earlier, Charmion's father had died. His death had bereft her not only of a very dear and only intimate companion, but also of money. Wishing to for- get her sorrow, and to be near an uncle who was stationed with the United States Army Troops at Honolulu, she had left her home in Vermont and had come to Hawaii. To many Americans, life in Honolulu would have abounded with happiness, mystery, adventure, and love. But for Charmion Browne it held no such allurements. Fate had been unmercifully cruel to her. She had been with her uncle a very short time when he was called to fight for Democracy. Three months after he had left, she received news that he had laid down his life for his country. Once more the woman-for she was no longer the light-hearted girl of the past-was left alone and mis- erable. It became necessary for Charmion to make a living for herself. Having been trained in the fine arts, she established an Art Shop where she sold little images and paintings. Most of the statues and several of the paint- ings she had created. The others were products of impe- cunious sculptors and artists who were really talented 52 SPECTATOR but had not yet arrived at their height of fame. This little shop was of especial interest to tourists. Each day for a year she had dusted the little images, arranged them on the shelves, and Wearily had tried to sell them. The happy faces of the tourists recalled her own sorrow and embittered rather than comforted her. A group of tourists had left shortly before the ap- proach of the storm. Charmion had been working excep- tionally hard and the Weather did not encourage gay spir- its. The forlorn girl stood holding a picture which simply would not turn out right, and despairingly soliloquized: My feelings are like the storm. They rebel against my soul. I must find vent for them! This life is maddening! I really should dust those images -meaning two smil- ing ones-- but, no. I will lock the doors and go forth into the tempest. 'Pain eases pain.' How true that saying is. I shall soon discover for the magnetic storm outside shall be the irritant to ease my inward conflict. As she stepped out into the air, the rain dashed upon her. The force of it blinded her. She exulted in the hurt of it. On and on she allowed the wind to take her. Up one street and down another. At a broad crossing she felt a sudden shock that was not the force of the wind-then she remembered nothing more. A young man sprang from his automobile and gently lifted the wet, mangled figure into his car which had struck her. He was much alarmed. He rushed the un- conscious girl to a nearby physician's office and sought immediate attention for her. For three whole days and nights a struggle between life and death ensued. But life won the battle. Charmion opened her eyes and found herself in a clean, cozy room. The delightful fragrance of roses played with her spirits until she was actually afraid to wink lest the beauty of it would vanish. The nurse's ad- ministering hand on her forehead reassured the patient. SPECTATOR 53 Where am I? What has happened to me? she ask- ed weakly. You are in the hospital and I am your nurse, You were run over by an automobile three days ago. The doctor says you will soon be well. But the flowers? Mr. Carl Lane, the man who was driving the car, sent them to you, Roses came each day to Charmion. She gradually be- came interested in this man who was trying so hard to atone for the unavoidable accident. Finally her interest grew into curiosity. And so, when she had reached the convalescent stage, the stranger was 'permitted to see her. Miss Browne, he began, I beg you to forgive me. I would that I had killed myself rather than have caused you one twinge of pain. His fine face was drawn with pain as he spoke. I Charmion liked him at once. Something in his eyes told her that he meant what he said. To her surprise, he was an artist who had come to Hawaii to obtain a back- ground for a certain picture that he intended to paint. Charmion was restless that night. She began to be- lieve that there was something wrong with herself instead of with the world. She saw a new phase of life. She had been selfish, gloomy, disagreeable. During the following weeks the roses kept coming and with them came Mr. Lane. The two young people, at first, talked mostly about their paintings and discussed the various artists, but finally they talked of themselves and their future. At last the happy day came when Charmion was able to leave the hospital. Mr. Lane called for her and, after they were comfortably seated in the car, Charmion whis- pered to her companion, I am glad for the accident, Carl. . 54 SPECTATOR I would that we could have met without it, he re- plied. I don't. It has been a blessing to me. It was indeed a two-fold blessing to Charmion Browne for to her it brought a sense of her obligation to the world and the hope of happiness. - The Blood Stains Helen Allen, 20 V2 The men leaned back in their chairs. That was certainly an interesting story even though it wasn't one of the melodramatic type, said Paul Arnold. Yes, agreed the man who was sitting nearest him. It was about as thrilling as a true story that hasn't been exaggerated. It was then that Jack Peterson leaned over to the first speaker and said, Do you prefer tragically thrilling stories-ones that send thrills up and down your spine? Hear Jack! Speak up, old boy. Do you mean to tell me that you've ever had any- thing tragic happen in your life that at least one of us doesn't know of? asked Paul. The speaker scanned Jack's face to see if he could discern the twinkle in J ack's eye which always informed him that he was the butt of the, joke. However, he was surprised, for instead of that, his eyes encountered a thoughtful, steady gaze fixed upon his own face. When the men observed this unusual mood of the cleverest man in the group, they felt uncomfortable and fervently wished that Paul had not presumed to criticize the former speaker. , Let's smoke. If you don't feel like talking, Peter- son, don't. But I do feel like telling you about this incident. SPECTATOR 55 I can never forget it. It happened a few weeks after I had entered col- lege as a Freshman. I roomed in the dormitory and the professor lived in the town just off the campus. At night the boys were left, on their honor, to behave. Frequent- ly the upper classmen would hold card parties and then, upon receipt of a set price and the promise not to tell of their actions, they would grant some select Freshmen the supreme honor of attending-as onlookers. Don't think I'm criticizing the Freshmen for desiring to be one of the select-for I was just as proud on the day when one of the Seniors accosted me and told me that I had been the object of their generosity and would be permitted to at- tend their next card party, as I have ever been in my life. The eagerly awaited day arrived at last, I had an- ticipated having an unusually exciting time. I was not mistaken for I certainly had a thrilling experience, al- though I confess it was anything but what I had expected. The room was crowded but I noted with pride that there was but one other Freshman there. After some time the novelty wore off and I was wishing vaguely that I had my four dollars so that I might pay a trivial debt when I heard a cry, loud and clear, ring out: You cheat, you. You're a thief and a coward. Refuse to take back any one of the names you just now called me and you'll be a dead man, Bob Hackett. I refuse. It's the truth. 'fru kin you. ' There was a crash as John James rushing towards Bob, overturned the table which had been between them. Some one pushed me out of the doorway. Run, boy, run. There'll be trouble here-suspension maybe- if the dean hears about this. I turned and somehow managed to stumble to my room. I had just closed the door behind me when I felt 56 SPECTATOR the knob wrested from my grasp as the door swung open, disclosing Bob. Hide me-Where? Under the bed. Too dazed to do more, I watched him. As he slid under the bed John entered. Where is Hackett? I saw him come in here. I started to murmur that he wasn't there but I was interrupted by a loud sneeze. John was upon Bob like a flash. They clinched. I was powerless to move or speak. They tussled. Then John Hung Bob on the bed. I saw a knife Hash. Then a crimson stain. Run. The doctor. He's dying. Get the dean. I've killed him, shouted the panic-stricken youth. I needed no further incentive. I ran faster than I had ever run before. I wakened the doctor and, while he was dressing, summoned the dean. As we hastened back, I briefly re- counted the events. We entered my room. It was dark. I switched on the lights. The counterpane was splotched with beet juice. We heard suppressed laughter. The professor and physician sympathetically turned their heads that they might not seem to be rudely staring at my face which matched the spots on the counterpane in color. I have often wondered how they hazed the other Freshman. As Jack finished speaking Paul again looked in his eyes. Ah, yes, he could clearly perceive the twinkle. SPECTATOR 57 The Misplaced Letters Mabel Kinzey, '201k. Cozette, sitting on the davenport before a cheery Hre reading a letter, was suddenly interrupted by her brother Carl, who dashed into the room, to warm his hands, and shouted teasinglyr What you doing? Gee! a letter! Who from? Oh boy! I'm going to read it. Carl, I thought you learned better English last week. Besides, this letter is mine. H'm, you don't say so. Well, we'll see if I' don't read it. Who's it from, Bob, huh? If you don't tell me 1'1l find out. He moved toward the davenport. Carl, please let me alone. Ah, you don't mean it. You have not let me read that letter. I haven't. Furthermore I'm not going to. Surely your hands are warm now, so you have my permission to leave. Carl moved nearer the davenport in a tantalizing manner. Now, Cozette, you know Bob would not like it if I did not read his letter. Why he'd be cross as a bear. Carl, if Bob wanted you to read his letters he'd ad- dress them to you. Now, please leave! Ah, Cozette, you know you'd be lonesome without me, he added, mockingly. No, I'd be very much satisfied. I ean't read this when you are teasing me. Well, if you would let me read it ,I'd not bother you at all. It's your own fault. Come on, Cozette, let me see it. He sat down beside her and made a move as it to seize the letter. 58 SPECTATOR Carl, that is enough. Please go out immediately. Well, since I know you will let me read the letter sometime, I'll oblige you by leaving. This he flung back as he slammed the door. What a relief,' sighed Cozette. Left alone she read the letter once more. It was the first she had received since Bob had returned to school, several weeks before. She thought it strange that he had not written because he had always been so prompt Now she was puzzled. Surely he had written letters that she had not received for he referred to incidents of which she had not heard. What could have happened to them? she won- dered. It is quite impossible that they should be lost in the mail, she thought. But what else could happen to them? Bob did not forget to post them? The postman never delivers our mail to anyone else. He is careful not to make such mistakes. It was a mystery which she longed to have solved. After musing a while longer she walked to the piano and struck a few chords. Then she took her guitar and sitting down picked the strings to see how nearly in tune it was. Softly she touched the strings, playing selection after selection. When she grew tired she picked up the guitar to put it away. Something inside moved and through the opening she saw a white object. The letters, she exclaimed. There they were. She tore them open and read eagerly. Someone entered. Without glancing up she exclaimed: Carl, do you know what a rude trick it is to hide SPECTATOR 59 one's mail? You mean little torment. I do Wish some one could teach you to be polite. Yes, Cozette, I agree. Carl is the tease and maybe he deserves your lecture, but Why deliver it to me? Bob, how did you get here? Why? Please tell me. Well, why should I not be here? I have not re- ceived anything from you since I Went back to school. Aren't you glad I came during this glorious Weather? Get your skates and do hurry! We can't afford to miss any more of the fun. I X f 60 SPECTATOR PRINCIPALRS PAGE ECONOMY SELF-CONTROL A practice of economy, consistently done, gives many desirable effects. The term economy does not merely pertain to money but comprehends many addi- tional phases of human activity. There may be economy of time, economy of energy, economy of Words, economy of space, and a variety of other types. Any form of economy is a salute to efficiency, an asset against the fu- ture. In a final analysis a practice of economy is a prac- tice of selfishness. One economizes in the present in order that one may be independent in the future. A de- sire for independence is, of course, but a selfish impulse. In spite of such a charge, all worth while that has been accomplished may be traced to economy. Big business could not have been possible had some one not denied himself. Efficiency could never ldevelop lwtithouft the recognition of economy. Economy represents surplus or a margin of safety. The greatest phase of an economi- cal practice is certainly not the material surplus. It is the influence the act has on.the individual. If one has learned the lessons of economy then one has learned self- control. To economize one must have command of one's self. Impulses and desires and whims are mastered. One is not a victim of a passion or a passing fad. The light and the frivolous are mastered. With self-control an axiom then power becomes merely a corollary. Econ- omy means independence. Independence means progress and progress means survival of the active. Active, yet in all acts in control of self. I hr igh irhnnl jpertatnr JOHNSTOWN, PA., JANUARY, 1921.

The end of another school term is here-and with it graduation for members of the class of 192015. We, at the doorway of J. H. S. facing the future-pause for a moment's reflection. 4 This school, in which we have spent four years in quest for knowledge has come to be an institution in our life. Here we have been absorbed into a miniature world where blissful hopes, golden opportunities, and failures, spell life. Here we have enjoyed the counsel and aid of a self-sacrificing faculty whose sympathy and interest in us did not wane. Here we have learned more than we found in books-to be good, faithful-and to cherish that boon of all mankind-friendship! Whatever our suc- cess may be in life-we owe much to our alma mater- and to its faculty. When we leave this school the responsibility which was ours as Seniors we shall pass to the Juniors! To you We pass this duty. Take it-cherish it-and with it ever before you, strive to maintain-and if possible better- the traditions of our school. When we Seniors entered school last September we had many ideals and ambitions. 'Some of those dreams have become realities-others are still dreams. It is your duty to try to make those dreams come true-toy keep our school where it belongs-emi- nent among schools. We who are about to graduate realize that an im- portant period of life ends with graduation-but we look into the future with pleasant anticipation. The past has been full of opportunities. There may be storms ahead -but we are not discouraged for It is an ill Wind that blows no good. As we take our first step forward We can not help SPECTATOR 63 feeling sorry-but it is with glad hearts, and hopeful hearts that we say farewell! Our obligation is to the past, our duty to the future. E. D. FAREWELL TO 19201f2. Harold Noffsinger, '211f2. In behalf of the members of this high school to whom you are now bidding adieu, I wish to extend to you our sincere good wishes and congratulations. Not only do we feel regret at such a parting as this, but also a keen sense of happiness at the thought of the admirable opportunities which now lie within your grasp. Your high school career is completed. Never again will you have the experience of passing through this stage of life. It is most appropriate to consider this commence- ment time as one of the happiest events of your lives. You have spent much effort in preparation and now you stand in readiness for the occasion. As leaders, we know you have done your best. We appreciate the eEort you have put forth in your attempt to lift us to exalted station of dignified Seniors. Your absence from our athletic and social affairs will be a drawback. And now that you have so fulfilled your ob- ligations to our school, we assure you that we will take up your work where you leave it, with the aid of your ex- perience, we will maintain and endeavor to hand down to our successors the ideals which you have set before us. And so, class of 192015, as you leave this high school you have our best wishes for your success, in whatever you undertake. We are confident you will do your best, and in so doing honor the glorious high school that made it possible for you to attain your high standing. 64 SPECTATOR The Doubter and Better American Speech Week. Was your 'Better English Week' really a success? That is the question which any stranger to Johnstown High School would naturally ask. Stranger he must be, else long ago, he would have been acquainted with the fruits of the week's efforts. 'Emerson says, Every deed hath its rewardf, and how well the quotation fits the oc- casion. Logic is convincing, we are told, and argument is logic, therefore, let us attempt to convince by it, Sir Doubter, the skeptical sort of individual who did not ap- prove of Better English Weekf' First of all, long ago, before Better English Week was inaugurated, you might have wandered through the High School corridors. On all sides you probably heard all sorts of expressions-atrocious butcherings of good English. Ain'ts and gotta's ran riot, each trying to outdo the other in the race for popularity and general use. After a whole week of concentrated fire upon the of- fenders they have begun to retire-we hope, forever. Of course, Sir Doubter, now, as you again walk through these same halls, you will not hear perfect English. Nor mortal is perfect-all of us make errors. But you do hear, if you listen carefully, a slang phrase and in the very same breath in which it is uttered, I forgot-it just slipped and without my realizing it, too-but I Will' remember next time. So there has been created among the stu- dents a deep impression of the great importance of pro- per speech. This itself is advancement from the old rut. Various factors, Sir Doubter, aided in creating this point of view. Foremost, We believe, is the process of visualization. When we really see a thing, we remember it-and the play cleverly written and produced in this High School, contributed much to English Week's suc- cess. How can the student body forget that amusing in- cident repeated in chapel concerning I'll tell the world? SPECTATOR 65 Not easily, you answer. Then neither can it for- get the lesson which was conveyed by that story. Humor carries over many a trying situation. Undoubtedly, some of us would never have realized the foolishness of certain slang expressions had we not been shown their useless- ness and, more than this, their detrimental influence upon our originality, our ingenuity, our cleverness. No, Sir Doubter, no one can wantonly speak bad Eng- lish now! Either he is ridiculed or pitiedg one, to my mind, as bad as the other. There has been too vivid an impression made upon the minds of all-poor English can- not iiourish again within the walls of Johnstown High. Its doors are locked, and none but the highest and best English possesses the key. D. E. W. SCHOOL NEWS At an important business meeting held Wednesday, December 1, the members of the A. B. Club elected the following officers: President, Dorothy E, Wilder, vice- president, Mary Statler, secretary, Margarett Witt, and treasurer, Marcella Hopkins. Orders were given for class rings for 1921 at a class meeting held Thursday, December 2. The orders were placed with local jewelers. The Girls' Sport Club held a party in the school, Friday, December 3. The teachers and the students pres- ent passed a very enjoyable evening. At a meeting of the Athletic Association, Monday, December 6, the following officers were filled for the com- ing year: President, Louis Sharp, Vice President, Perry Katzensteing Secretary, Thomas Tremelleng Manager for 1921 football team, Ignatius Cunningham. Better English Week was observed from December 8 to December 15. Mr. Harry Hesselbien, Secretary of 66 SPECTATOR the Johnstown Chamber of Commerce, spoke at the chapel of December 8 and 9. Mr. Hesselbien used as his subject, The Value of Good English. He showed the worth of good English in everyday life and emphasized by specific illustrations the value of correct speech in business. The talk by Mr. Hesselbein was only one feature in the Better English campaign which ended December 15. Many Good English posters were made and ex- hibited in the halls and class rooms. These posters added to the success of the campaign. Since the close of the campaign the ordinary speech of Johnstown High School students is better grammatically and contains less slang. The combined English classes presented a playlet at the chapel of December 15 and 16. The play, written by Miss Cassel and Mrs. Roudebush, was entitled, The Trials of English. Bad English was condemned after a trial and sentenced to death in the High School. The play served materially to aid Better English Week and was a last word in convincing the students of the true value of good English. The Christmas chapel, held December 22 and 23, was one of the best presented during the year. A chorus of more than sixty voices sang Christmas carols. There were two readings, A Friend at Court and The Christ- Child, which were given by Dorothy Belle Rutledge and Mary Statler respectively. Mr. Stockton presided at the exercises, because ofthe illness of Mr. Black. Many members of the alumni were present. Howard Roberts, a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, addressed the audience in behalf of the alumni present. He assured the High School that it could be proud of its musical talent and of its ability to keep alive the old, true High School spirit. SPECTATOR 67 ALUMNI NOTES 02-George L. Kress, '02, of Locust Street and Park Place, died at the Memorial Hospital on Wednes- day, December 8. George L. Kress, the youngest son of the late Charles F. Kress and Mrs. Justina Fronheiser Kress, was born in this city in 1881. After his graduation from the local High School, he entered Dickinson College, where he joined the Phi Delta Theta fraternity. Upon his return to this city he became a clerk for the Cambria Steel Company In 1906 he became associated with the Johnstown Savings Bank and remained with that institution until his death. Mr. Kress is survived by his mother, two broth- ers, his widow, Mrs. Lucy Moses Kress, '05, and three children. With the death of Mr. Kress, Johnstown has lost a splendid citizen and the Alumni Association a staunch friend and supporter. 05-David U. Rothstein, '05, and Miss Lucille Cerf, of Pittsburgh, were united in marriage at the Con- cordia Club by the Rev. Samuel Goldenson, of Pittsburgh, Tuesday evening, January 4. Mrs. L.

'He is now one of the leaders in the debating trials that are being held at State. ...l. -T EXCHANGES Here's to the Spectator from Louisville Boys' High School! If all our Exchanges would keep up to the standard you have set, there could be no destructive com- ments. In your November number The Most Embar- rassing Moment was a worth while story but would have been much better had the author omitted the last sen- tence. This Is The Life in the December number was amusing. Although out of season, A HalloWe'en Gypsy was a clever story which we found in the Christmas La Perle from Northampton High School. We regret to say that the Exchange write-up lacked interest. We Wonder if it would be possible for the Literary De- partment in the Jack o' Lantern to be enlarged? The SPECTATOR 69 jokes are so amusing that we don't know which one de- served the most laughs but we chose this one: Mable G fbecoming impatient at lack of service in a confectionary storyl Here, young lady, who Waits on the nuts? This was a long time reaching the Jack o' Lantern. To the Exchange Editor of the Mirror from Palmer- ton we Wish to express our thanks for the compliment given us. Although the Mirror at present is small, we hope to see it increase in size and value with each suc- cessive issue. How glad we are to see the paper The Schenley Tri- angle prospering without a staff! How do you do it? Judging from the Provonian, the pupils of the Provo High School have school spirit and are not afraid to exert themselves to Work for the betterment of the school and its interests. . The Monitor from New Castle is a complete paper. To the publishers of the Polytechnic We extend our wishes for success in your aim to publish a Weekly paper. We like to see our friends advance. The cut at the top of the Exchange column in the Mir- ror from Shannon is quaint. Thank youg your Exchange column is also clever. The magazine is good from cover to cover. The D. A. R. Representative, published the Anvil from Painesville, was a rather good story. 'Tis said: The greatest values come in small packages. Why not liven up the Anvil and make the adage adaptable to your paper? You Daytonians represented by the D, H. S. Por- poise, are certainly interested in Dramatics, aren't you? We admire your enthusiasm. How glad we are that We have so many Mirrors!

The feature of the game was Johnstown's splendid passing and team work. Time after time by un- erring passing the ball was worked under Apollo's net from which point our forwards had more of a chance to score. Connor, the first scoring center Johnstown has had in years, featured, as did also Berkebile, whose ex- ceptional guarding releases the other guard for play with scoring half of the floor.

The Johnstown team made many people sit up and take notice at a game with Pittsburg Academy Wednes- day, December 22, when our team came away victors by a score of 53-30. If it were not for the wonderful foul shooting of Capt. Freeman, who bagged 22 of 27 fouls, the game would have been ta slaughter. Johnstown scored 21 field goals against the Academy's 4. Berkebile again featured by his exceptional guarding and blocking of field goals. Tremellen played a great offensive game, and was in the thick of it all the time. Capt. Sharpe played well . and got in several spectacular field goals. Connor and Kline played their usual fine game. Capt. Freeman was the whole show for the visitors. If present indications do not lie, it looks as though we may come through this season with a clean slate.

The Johnstown High School Basketball team made its first appearance in a game against the alumni on De- cember 10th, 1920. Although the odds were against us, and although we were beaten by a decisive score, our team showed such class as to insure a successful sea- son this year. As a win against the alumni can hardly be expected, this defeat will not in the least mar our sched- ule. The Nshining light of the game was Shomo, who succeeded in scoring thirty-three points. Schwing, Wil- liams, Mulhollen, Shomo and Reese starred for the Alum- ni, while Tremellen, Connor, Thomas, Sharpe and Berke- bile starred for the High School.
