Bluebird! You are a blithesome soul: You have caroled all summer long, But now that earth's in winter role, No more the woods echo your song. But yet there soars o'er Johnstown High, Tho' Mother E.arth's in autumn dress, Two symbols fair against the sky, The bright bluebirds of happiness. The Peculiar Song Evelyn Nelson, 22M Edward Dupont was, in his estimation, the happiest young man in the world. Yet, but a few hours ago he had aimed no higher than to go on touring Europe, which pastime was no especial treat for Edward, for he had toured Europe several times before with his father, a wealthy manufacturer. .What could have changed his gloomy aspect to one of such a rosy hue? Nothing more than the simple reason that he had fallen in love. Only that morning, his father having left him alone, he had strolled over to the southern part of the town to view a so-called haunted house. Edward Dupont was, by no means, a superstitious young mang but, in spite of himself, 5 SPECT-ATOR he was somewhat startled, when, upon entering the doorway, he was greeted by a Hood of beautiful, strange music. Look- ing about him to find the source of the melody, he was sur- prised to see, in a far corner of the room, the most beautiful vision his eyes had ever beheld. It was a young girl, dressed in filmy white and wearing a hat, the pure whiteness of which was a striking background for her jet black hair, and large dark eyes. So absorbed was she in her song, that it was some time before the girl noticed the stranger's presence. Then she broke off and rather apologetically exclaimed, l beg your pardon. I did not see you at first. l love to sing, and the sight of these ruins somehow affected me. Her spoken words sounded fully as musical as her 'song had been. He could hardly refrain from telling her how lovely she looked. He talked with her for a short time, and gathered that she sang in public places for a living, her mother and father having died when she was quite young. For weeks after this, Edward and the girl met quite often at the ruins, and her beauty and depth of character made him love her more each day. One day, when as usual, he visited the place, to his great surprise, the girl was not there. Nor did he see her again during his stay in Rome. After he returned to America, Edward tried to forget the girl, as he had forgotten many a chance acquaintance. But try as he would, he could not. Night after night he visited theatres, operas, and various public places, hoping that he might find her. For he remembered that she had often spoken of coming to America. It was a hard task, for he had had no occasion to ask the girl's name, and did not know for whom to inquire. One night, when he had almost given up hope of ever seeing her again, he was in his fatheris office while the radio was playing. Suddenly a beautiful, strange melody flooded the room. l-lis heart almost stood still-it was the song she had.. sung. He rushed out of the office, and lost no time, in finding out the girl's whereabouts. l-le found her at the N. D. K. A. Radio Station, where he met her after her performance. When she left the station he impetuously rushed up to her. She recognized him at once, SPECTATOR 9 and her delight at seeing him proved that his affections were, in some degree, returned. . On the way home, Edward told the girl how he had perpetually sought her, since the morning of her disappear-I ance. She told him that she, too, had sought him, and con- fessed that she loved him fully as well as he loved her. After they had reached her home, Edward bade her good- night, but quickly turned back and laughingly exclaimed, Hjovel l forgot to ask you your name! lncidents of My Trip to California With the 6th District Rotary J. Earl Opperman, '23 The Sixth District Rotary Special which carried the Ro- tarians of the Pittsburgh district to the annual convention in Los Angeles, macle its first stop for a sight-seeing trip at Den- ver, Colorado. Denver is an important city, but the interest of our party centered in the trip to Lookout Mountain because of its association with Colonel Cody, better know to the American boy and girl as Buffalo Bill. When '-Buffalo Bill died a few years ago, it was his desire to be buried on the highest point of Lookout Mountain. His wish was carried out to the letter. The point selected is over 9,000 feet above sea-level. It commands a wonderful view of the surrounding country, for a short distance from the grave there is a sheer drop of several thousand feet. The grave itself is very simple. The monument is made of plain cobble-stones set in cement. The grave has a border of stone which is filled in with cement, the whole being surrounded by an iron fence. The inscription on the monument reads: ln Memoriam COL. WILLIAM FREDERICK CODY Buffalo Bill Noted Scout and lndian Fighter Born-Feb. 28, IS45, Scott County, lowa. Died-jan. IO, 1917, Denver, Colorado. The vicinity of the grave was Buffalo Bill's headquarters during most of his career as an lndian fighter. Near the A10 SPECTATOR n . ,..., BUFFALO BILL'S GRAVE AT LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN grave is a large house in which the Colonel probably lived. This house is now used as a museum and contains some very interesting Indian relics, together with portraits, weapons, and clothing which belonged to Colonel Cody. After leaving Denver, our next stop was at Colorado Springs. This stop proved more exciting and more interesting than the trip at Denver. Here we went through the Garden of the Gods, were in the Cave of the Winds and visited the o SPECTATOR 11 top of Pike's Peak. l shall remember that ride as long as l live. ' We started in the morning at eight o'clock, mountain time, in a Cadillac touring car. We first went through the Garden of the Gods. Here We saw the huge gate-way rocks, the kissing camels, the lion's head, the baggage room, the balanced rock, and numerous other strange images made by the action of the wind and of the water. The baggage room is a huge mass of square rocks piled up like so many trunks. Having seen the Garden of the Gods, we went on to the Cave of the Winds. This wonderful place, which is l475 feet above sea-level, was discovered and explored by two young boys nearly fifty years ago. The cave is no longer windy, as the old entrance, through which the wind rushed at a rate of thirty to forty miles per hour, has been closed and a new one cut in at a place where the wall was thin. Some of its chambers are two or three stories in height. There are stalag- mites and salactites throughout the cavern. On account of the great number of stalagmites and stalactites and because of their remarkable beauty, tourists have been tempted to break them off and take them home as souvenirs. The Cave belongs to the United States Government, which imposes a very heavy fine and a long-prison term upon anyone caught breaking any of the stalagmites or stalactites. The tour of the Cave of the Winds completed, we set out for Pikeis Peak. The road by which we traveled to the top is eighteen miles long, and has a three to four percent grade. Every mile of the road is marked by a sign post with the number of the mile painted upon it. The elevation at that point is also marked. This system of marking every mile makes the journey very tiring as the travel is slow and it seems to be a very long time before the next mile post is reached. General Pike, who discovered the Peak on November l5, 1806, tried, for two weeks to climb it and failed. lt took us but half a day to go up and down. We had luncheon at Glen Cove lnn, II,425 feet above sea-level, and seven and one-half miles from the top. At the elevation of l2,000 feet all vegetation stops and the mountain looks like one huge pile of rocks thrown up in confusion. The altitude of Pike's Peak is l4, l 09 feet or two and one half miles above sea-level. The whole top is snow covered and is hidden by clouds most of the time. To be 12 SPECTATOR above the clouds is a thrill that comes once in a lifetime and one that will never be forgotten. The day on which we went up was cloudy, but the clouds lifted in spots and exposed the bluest sky l ever saw. The Pikeis Peak auto road was opened three or four weeks sooner than it usually is. This was done in order that the Rotarians, not only from the Atlantic Coast, but also those from Europe, might visit the Peak. The road was still full of snow and ice and some places it was banked higher than our car. One car that did not have chains got too close to the edge while coming down from the top and slid over the edge of the road before it could be stopped. We stopped at the Glen Cove lnn on the way down and removed the chains, as the snow line was passed. For dinner that evening we were the guests of the Colo- rado Springs Rotary Club at a trout-fry in Stratton Park. We left the park early and drove up into the Cheyenne Canon to see the Seven Falls. Climbing the three hundred steps to the top of the falls gave a fine view of the succession of cata- racts. This finished our sightseeing. We went back to the station a few minutes before the train pulled out for Los Angeles, carrying a definite impression of the wonderful places which we had visited. - ane's Chance Edith Resley, 22M ,lane l-lam,mond settled herself for study in an easy chair beside the library table in the living room. Her mother and father had gone to the theater to see a home talent presentation of the opera Carrnen. Jane was left behind at her own request for her class at school was to give a number of plays and scenes from plays and all students had an equal chance to gain the leading part. She was a Sophomore in High School and was just now beginning to read Shakespeares plays. She settled herself comfortably and gave one long look around the room preparatory to plunging into her studies. As she did this her eye caught sight of the latest movie maga- zine which was opened at the newest screen Ufindf' She was SPECTATOR 13 tempted to read it, but determinedly turning her back on it she began to read The Merchant of Venice, for surely if she knew a certain part in this play due to diligent study, she would be rewarded with a part in the class play. She grew more interested in it as she read and was particularly fasci- nated by the character of Portia. She fancied herself acting the part and planned how she would do it. Then suddenly she seemed to find herself in a dressing room back of the school stage. The class were to give scenes from The Merchant of Venice and she was Portia. The youthful actors were donning the grease paint when excitedly someone passed around the word that a famous movie critic and director were in front. All was excitement! The curtain rose and fell as scene after scene was enacted. At last came Jane's chance to shine. The curtain rose on the court scene. Portia entered with Nerissa as clerk. Her acting was wonderful. She could hear the shouts of Bravo as she stood breathless in the wings. Back in the dressing room she was greeted by Mr. Hammzers, 'who had directed the play, and by two strange gentlemen, whom he introduced as the critic and movie direc- tor respectively. The acting was very good, said one, in a voice which sounded strangely familiar. Yes, indeed, said another familiar voice. Something unusual for such young actors. V Jane blushingly stamrnered her thanks but was rudely interrupted in the very middle of them by the same voice in her ear. Ujanel Jane! l thought l told you to go to bed early and here you are asleep over your studies. Like Cinderella of old Jane's witching hour fled, and with it Jane's chance. She looked around to find herself in the familiar library and her mother and father laughing at her expression of surprise. Oh, l just dreamed I had received a movie contract, she said, as she marched obediently to bed, followed by her mothers laughing voice: A movie contract as the result of Shakespeare. It isn't being done these days, my dear. Your chance may come through books, but not through your portrayal of Shakes- pearef' 14 SPECTATOR Charlic-3,5 Battle Park Shaffer, 22M Charlie Rittredge sat in his room thinking. That was all that Charlie had been doing for a week. He had heard disquieting news on the -campus. He had seen groups of fellows talking and he knew that he was the subject of the conversation, for upon several occasions he ' had heard, 'iCharlie's lost all his pep. And indeed it seemed true. For the last game with Georgia Training School, Kumyals had won by three points. These were made by Brown's drop-kick from the fifteen yard line. And how that crowd had roared. He could still hear them, i'Brown, Brown, Brown. -Now two days before the championship game with Longbuoy Prep, commonly said to be the best prep team in the eastern part of the country, Charlie was bluer than ever. Coach Blackburn had raved and roared, but he might as well have saved his breath. To roar at Charlie was like roaring at a stone wall, for his words had no effect. A stone- wall, that's what Charlie had been in the olden days. The day for the Longbuoy game came. For fully two hours before the game spectators had been coming. The bleachers and every bit of standing room were filled. The game opened in tense silence. The first quarter ended and the second was just commencing. Longbuoy kicked but recovered almost immediately through a fumble. Kumyals went to pieces and two minutes before the end of the half Longbuoy crossed the 'goal for a touchdown but missed the try for goal after touchdown, making the score 6-0. Charlie had not played. Rutledge, second string quarter- back, had taken his place. But now Rutledgeis wind had played out and he was out of the game for the rest of the day. The only thing the coach could do was to put Charlie in. And he did. But before they went out on the field the coach took Charlie into his private office. No one heard what was said, but when Charlie came out he was very white. The team worked systematically, seeming heartenecl by the presence of their old quarterback, although they all knew he was not working true to form. And the third quarter ended without gain on either side. The coach said nothing but looked SPECTATOR 15 at Charlie with contemptuous eyes. Again Charlie whitened, but he controlled his temper and with throbbing veins waited for the whistle. It blew, and with encouragement shouted from the side lines, the players ran into the field to finish what looked like a sure defeat for Kumyals. But after the first play everyone knew that something was up . Charlie worked like one possessed. A smile flickered on the coach's face as he muttered, I knew he would do it. . Inch by inch, foot by foot, yard by yard, Kumyals forced Longbuoy back to the thirty-yard line where Charlie broke through and headed for the goal. Conway, the speedy little Longbuoy end, sped after him and tackled him just as he reached the goal, but the force of the tackle threw them both across the goal line. Touchdown, touchdown, touchdowng Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. And business men uptown stopped to listen, so powerful was the shout. At the sound Charlie's heart swelled and tears came to his eyes as he whispered, For good, old Kumyals, but at what a price. He kicked goal just as the whistle blew and was carried off the field, once more a hero. That evening, as several of his closest friends sat in his room talking over the exciting incidents of the game, Roberts, the captain, laughingly asked Charles what had been the matter with him. At this Charlie grew thoughtful, then took a note from his pocket, handed it to Roberts, then walked to the window, too weak to control his emotions. Roberts read: 4 Dear:- ' You were wonderful. lim glad you played, although l was afraid every minute you would be hurt. l..eola. And the fellows nodded understandingly. 16 SPECTATOR Principals Page We are all proud of our high school. We are proud of its faculty, the large body of ambitious students, and our splendid school spirit. We are proud 'of our football squad, our band, our enlarged orchestra, our student council and all its other organization as well as our pleasant social life. May all these agencies develop us morally, physically and mentally to a high standard. Let the influence of Johnstown High School always spur us on to better things. Toward this end the Spectator is published. Its purpose is to invite and guide everyone into the inner life of the school. To the new students who are to be with us this term we ex- tend a cordial welcome. We hope that to you the Spectator will be helpful and that it may inspire you to stand and fight for the lofty ideals of our high school. We are proud of what we have clone, but we must not stop here. Our high school is what we make -it. Our imme- diate task is to make it better. If the Spectator promotes that task, it accomplishes its purpose. If the Spectator is not what you think it should be you should do your part to make it better. Write a short article for its pages stating definitely and to the point, how it can be made a better school paper. Its staff invites constructive criti- cisrng but clon't Hknockf' Our high school is proud of its boosters but ashamed of its uknockersu. By means of these articfles the editors will at least get the student viewpoint and possibly this will help them to make its pages more interesting to its thousand, or more, readers. Nothing can stand in the way of a student body that determines to make its publication the first high school paper in the state. Proud of the achievements of the Spectator in the past, may we be justified in our anticipation of even a, better paper for the future. .

This is the period of the year when flying squadrons are combing the nation in the interest of their Alma lVlaters and when returning classes are dreaming new dreams or are enjoy- ing the harvest of old ones. At this time such as the latter is our case in that our High School Band is a reality and the dream of Student Government, though it has come out of a hazy past, still it is our beautiful dream for a' that. Now for the third dream--a new stage set and an audi- torium redressed to harmonious agreement. Somewhere there is a saying that the age of mari is measured by the relics of man, and verily we may say that this is a truth. What exam- ple stands so prominently before us as the present stage set and the auditorium which accentuates the effect of decay and decrepit age. Let us recall the present picture. First the worn stage front where generations of bache- lors' rows have scraped their mark. Then the once fine front curtain punctured with holes and sadly in need of a thorough Hdry cleaning. Back of this those everfaithful lean- ing pillars, which, like shabby loafers on a street corner, dis- grace the wings. Forming the very background is that pas- toral set with its still stream and bench upon which no actor ever sat. Nor do not let us in recalling this picture forget the old green set with its ever elusive doors and.windows which have changed places with one another so often that it has ceased to become a game of locating the strayed members. As for the shade of green fit is always greenj if it isn't one shade, have patience, the Art Department will come around to it. Pity the Art Department--the usurgeonn who must SPECTATOR 19 be growing tired of repeated operations on an old subject. Halt-I would have erased the picture and ignored the treas- ured proscenium drop curtain-faithful green. Now let us dream- The stage woodwork is mahogany and the old green front curtains are scarcely recognizable in their refurbished glory. Behind this the proscenium arch framed by a beau- tiful drop and with a full curtain, which, when open, forms a draped back effect. The background is a beautiful cyclorama on which colored lights are played and on this stage a grad- uating class, or again with a beautiful set piece before which our own Thespians are enacting the drama. Bright lights, color, beauty and music-this is the dream we would create. For such a project the cost would be roughly estimated at fB2,000. Nor is such an amount beyond our capabilities to subscribe. Let'it come in the form of a Christmas present fahead of time, from each student and each alumnus, twenty- five cents for each year since graduation. This, we believe, to be an economical and proportioned means of raising such a fund. The time for action is now, as the condition of things bears unquestionable witness. It remains for some class to take the initiative. It is our fond hope that the coming graduating class may have its graduation framed in a picture such as it would be well proud of. Meanwhile the question is open for discussion. Let us have an expression from the student body the faculty, the principal, and the alumni. If we mean action the reality of the third dream is not far removed from the dream itself. B. R. AN APPRECIATION On September 27, when our High School Band appeared in the auditorium, they presented a very attractive appearance in new uniforms which were the gift of the Chamber of Com- merce. It is very gratifying to know that busy men are interested ,in our high school organizations and ready to help us make our school better. This generosity on the part of the Chamber of Commerce is an evidence of this interest. We students appreciate their kindness and herewith wish to express our gratitude. E. N. N. F x 20 SPECTATOR NEWNS The Johnstown Senior High School opened on Sept. 5, l922. The organization this year differed slightly from that of last year. The programs had been compiled previous to the first day of school. These programs could not be altered with- out special permission. This did away with confusion, and real work was started the second day. The Music Department is one of the most interesting in the school. The chorus classes are to practice three-part work, and they will participate in chapel exercises. The Glee Clubs have been organized. No pupil is allowed to join who has not passed the vocal and music-reading tests. The Band, which has been at work all summer, and the Orchestra, which was reorganized Monday, Sept. l l, will participate in the various school activities. Mr. Odell, Director of Music, expects to organize a Girls' Orchestra, a Saxophone Choir, and a Male Quartet. ' 4 The Drawing Department is very proud to state that over twenty-five percent. of its students are boys. This department is working for the Annual Exhibition, which will be held later in the year. g, Very interesting chapel exercises were held Sept. 13th and I4th, which were given over to the Spectator. A plea for literary contributions to the Spectator was made by Edith Resley, and a plea for subscriptions to the Spectator was made by Brandon Rhodehamel. A chart was used to show the standing of the various classes. The drive closed Tuesday, Sept. l9, with a total of 700 subscriptions, the chart showing that 90? of the Seniors had subscribed, 6079 of the Juniors, 25723 of the Sophomores, and 14W of the Freshmen. The Term Vlll Class held a meeting, Friday, Sept. I5. At this meeting the election of officers took place with the fol- lowing resultsz President, Robert Bowersg Vice-President, Clifford Small, Secretary, Kathryn Gocherg Treasurer, Floyd Waters. The Term VII Class held a meeting, Monday, Sept. 18. The election of officers was held, the results being as follows: President, John Maleyg Vice-President, Madeleine Elliott, Secretary, Mary Blanche Fosterg Treasurer, Louise Krebs. SPECTATOR , 21 The bank cashiers of the various assemblies, met in the Auditorium, Monday, Sept. l8, to discuss the plans for the coming year. The first banking day was on Tuesday, Sept. l9, and it is hoped that the students will take advantage of this opportunity to save their money. Chapel exercices, which all students were eager to attend were held on Sept. 20th and Zlst. These exercises were given over to football. Talks were given by Stanley Kitzmiller, business manager of the tearn, and by John Maley, captain of the team. Mr. Saylor, who made the football camp such a huge success, gave a short talk concerning the camp and the program scheduled for this season. The football drive closed Sept. 22. By Tuesday, Sept. 26, money for 600 tickets had been handed in. K One of the largest and best mass meetings ever held in J. H. S. was held on Friday, Sept. 22, the day before the first game. The student body showed their school spirit, and got up some pep for the game, the following day. The follow- ing football song, written by Lillian Marshall, scored a hit with the student body: Come now, fellows, it's up to you, Show a bit of pep for the Black and Blue. And our colors will shine, like the stars in the sky, While we keep on cheering for Johnstown High ! just a bit of pep and melody Will add the tune of winning to the game, you see, And tho it seems we're losing, don't give up and sigh, But keep on cheering for Johnstown High! Chapel exercises held Sept. 27th and l8th, were taken up with a discussion of The Student Council. Mr. Ripple gave an interesting address, pointing out the aims and Value of a Student Council. Evelyn Nelson, Edith Resley, Albert Seihl, and Vincent Hartnett also spoke about the council. The band, appearing for the first time, in their attractive new uniforms, furnished the music for the exercises. The musical program included two numbers by a boys' quartet. The quar- tet, consisting of Thomas Cherry, first tenorg Earl White, sec- ond tenorg Lawrence Fritz, baritoneg and Raymond Kellar, bass, presented i'On the Chapel Steps, and Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes. zz sPiscTA'roR gg The High School Band rendered a concert at the Gar- field Junior High School, Friday, Sept. 29. A small fee was charged the pupils at the school, the proceeds to be applied to the musical department of Junior High. The band will play Wednesday, Oct. 5, at the Industrial Exposition, Thursday, Oct. 6, they will play at a meeting of the Fathers' Club, Friday, October 7, at the teachers' institute, and Saturday, Oct. 8, at the football game.

Many of these are attractive commencement numbers, in which the lit- erary work, school activities, and humor, show the place which 24 SPiECTATOR g the outgoing classes held in their respective schools. Here and there we met exceptionally fine bits of work, such as the editorials in the Crimson and Gold, the literary department in the Orange and Black, the cuts in the Thistle, and the poetry in the Green Witch. It would give us great pleasure to quote extensively from each of our exchan.ges, but we shall have to content ourselves with one or two passages. The following lines are taken from To a Snowbird, found in the Mountain Echo. Flitting from bough to bough you go, Winging and singing the whole day long, What is your message, bird of the snow? Why do you fill the air with song? Whate'er your errand here, I still Would fain believe, 'though some deny, You are an instrument of I-lis will, As singing from bough to bough you fly. These cheerful lines from the Green Witch may help us at a time when the world looks all wrong: When you're feeling mighty blue, as misfortune comes to you, You will stand a better show, if you don't let others know. When your studies all go wrong, just keep plodding right along. The sun is sure to shine againg cheerfulness is not in vain. Better times are coming after whileg And you look a great deal better when you smile. Speaking of humor, our far-away Hawaiian friends, must be just as fond of ruthless rimesu as we are, for the following jingle is an extract from their paper, The Pinionn: W-lqhey met on the bridge at midnightg They never will meet again. For one was an Ewa-bound heifer, The other, a Honolulu train. SPECTATOR 25 THLETICS 4 Henry J. Green, of Omaha, Neb., graduated in l9I0 from the Netawaka High School, Kans., and in I9I4 from Midland College, Fremont, Neb. While in Midland College Mr. Green played football in the position of half and full back. Since graduating from college he has taught seven years, three of the seven years have been a combination of science and physical education, and during the last four years he has been in charge of physical education in Lincoln High School at Seattle, Wash. Green took one year of post-graduate work at the University of Kansas and received his Master's Degree in physical education from that institution this summer. In ad- dition, he has had one summer at Columbia University, New York City, and the past summer in Harvard University, Cam- bridge, Mass. During the past twelve years Mr. Green has been intimately connected with the physical training of young men in school, college and Y and in addition has had the training of many' semi-professional teams and teams com- posed of business and professional men. Mr. Green's preparation has not only been along the line of athletics, but from the standpoint of corrective physical exercises. He has spent considerable time working in hospitals and clinics that make a specialty of corrective work. This physical training is based upon the scientific side of education, and in this connection he is working for his degree of Doctor of Medicine. I , .-.-it-...-T....l., THE FOOTBALL TEAM DEFEATS CONEMAUGH HIGH IN FIRST GAME, OF SEASON Large representations from both Johnstown and Cone- maugh witnessed the Johnstown High gridders triumph over the Conelmaugh High eleven, in the first game of the season, at the Point Grounds, with a one-sided score of I9 to 0. Johnstown fans expressed their surprise and praised the splendid team work of the Azure and Black. Conemaugh also made a fine showing in the first half, in view of the fact 26 SPECTATOR that this is their first season in Big League football. With some snappy team work and the effective punting of Quarterback Fleckenstein, the Johnstown team had an excel- lent chance to score in the first half, but failed to make the best of their opportunity. With the ball on the five-yard line the Johnstown boys lost it on the third down. Conernaugh by a well directed punt landed the pigskin well down the gridiron out of the danger zone, which proved costly to the local lads. ln the second half neither line wavered for some time, but a continued series of end runs brought our boys to the five yard line. Read plowed his way through the line for the first touchdown. Fleckenstein kicked, and the score was Johnstown 7, Conemaugh 0. With five minutes' playing in the third quarter Johnstown scored again. A long forward pass brought our boys danger- ously near the Conernaugh goal. A line plunge by Ready and Fleckenstein's placement kick, which was blocked by Rose, made the score, Johnstown l3, Conernaugh O. Another touchdown was scored a few minutes later when Maley intercepted a forward pass. Fleckenstein's atteinpt for a placement kick was again blocked by Rqse. The score was I9 to 0 in favor of Johnstown. The line-up for the game: Johnstown ' Conernaugh Maley .......,,......., ,........,..... L .

The coach feels that there is pep lacking in our activities and especially the football games and in the football parades. He said: We need more life among the rooters, and the only way to get it is to get the rooters to the games. This club is composed of twenty members, six of whom were selected from the Senior Class and the other fourteen were chosen from the lower classes. The following organization was effected: President, Spear Sheridang Secretary, Stanton Funkg Treasurer, Harry Kline. The purpose of the organization is to get as many of the students as possible and to have large crowds for the parades. 28 SPECTATOR vs- 'nf Y .x -1 MENS US n D A z x Lr ue slug V wt , , AW ii' 'Fa2se'E?rTLEEFELLo:g '22 MHLLGQOXV UDM 5k Qqjj 255735 Q Q f VW, Q -' f w QWZM' r X K H Sv - A Su I Z ux'W'vW 4 !Nx'X :. .:J , X f Wag, H Lamps l f?

A certain percentage of all money realized by Alumni and their friends for the sale of tickets was to be added to the Student Loan Fund. The responsibility of making the venture a success fell upon the few who have carried the burden of the Alumni and the Loan Fund. Due to their untiring efforts more than 5800.00 was added to the fund. Too great praise cannot be given to the officers of the Alumni and the faithful few who helped them, for their splendid service. I902-At the invitation of Dr. C. E. Hays, of the Valley Pike, I8 members of the class of '02 and four mem- bers of the faculty gathered at a banquet and reunion at the Greystone Country Club, Saturday evening, June 3. The class colors, red and black, which formed the principal decoration, as well as the reminiscences of school events, removed, for the evening, at least, the weight of twenty years, and carried all back to those good old High School days. 1922-It is most gratifying to see the large number from this class who have entered higher institutions this fall. To them as well as to the members who were called to follow. other activities, the Alumni extends the heartiest wishes that their endeavors may be crowned with success and prove a credit to Our School.

Earl Opperman, '23 The next stop on our journey westward that proved of interest was at Santa Fe, where we visited an Indian village. The houses are built in a square with all the doors and most of the windows opening into a court. The houses are of one or two stories and are made of adobe, the second story being added when the son of the family gets married. The rainfall in that region is very light and the air is so dry that the Indians hang their meat outside on pegs, and it does not spoil. The Indians are independent and are easily offended. The tourist has to be careful what he says to these,' the true Americans. If anyone tries to take a picture of an Indian without his consent either he may be arrested or be made to pay a heavy fine. We tried to take the picture of an old buck who was supposed to be over a hundred years old. We offered him a quarter, but he shook his head. Then we offered him fifty cents, but he said Dollar. And we had 'to pay the dollar before we could take his picture. After we left Santa Fe our 'fspecialn ran on to Albu- querque, New Mexico, where we visited the Harvey Indian Museum. This did not interest me as I was impatient to see the Grand Canyon of Arizona where we were due the next morning, Saturday, June 3. We arrived at the canyon four hours late. It is the most wonderful place that I saw during the whole trip. The extent and the marvelous beauty fairly take one's breath. The canyon is from fourteen to twenty-seven miles wide, over two hundred miles long, and varies in depth from about three thousand to seven thousand feet. It is not a clear cut chasm as most people think it to be, but is very rugged. Small 10 SPECTATOR ll f na 1 I ' 4 THE OLD BUCK m.mr ,,,, ,,..,,-,,,, ,Adm Y, , irregular mountains arise from the Hoor of the canyon, in some cases almost attaining the height of the rim. There is every color in the rainbow in these rocks. A trail, called the Bright Angel Trail, leads from the rim down to the canyon Hoor. A pack-train leaves the El Travas Hotel every morning at eight o'clock, but our special arrived too late for any of our party to make the trip. After lunch l took a two-mile hike with another boy who was on the uspecialf, The trail which we followed led along the rim to Yavapai Point, a distance of from a mile and a half to two miles. While walking along the edge we noticed a cave about one hundred and fifty yards below the rirn. We found ai path which led toward the cave but not to it. We had to climb over rocks and once we were forced to jump across a fissure which was about two thousand feet deep. When we reached the cave we found that it was only 'about fifty feet long and was probably an abandoned gold mine, as marks of pick and shovel could be plainly seen. We added our names to the thousands of others that had risked their SPECTATOR 11 lives, like ourselves, to see the cave. Upon reaching Yavapai Point we crawled over ,the edge and sat on a stone for fully half an hour drinking in the wonderful view. We made the walk back to the hotel without incident and before leaving the canyon we took a drive to l lermit's Rest, about fifteen miles from the hotel. ' All the next day, Sunday, June 4, we traveled through the desert. ln the morning we had church services in the observation car. That service was the most solemn one that l have ever attended, and the best attended. We did not have a preacher but some of the men who spoke did as well as any preacher. The desert is gently rolling. ln places there are vast stretches of alkali. The intense heat dries up the water and leaves the alkali as a white powder which the wind carries. Our lips were parched and our noses were burning from breathing this dust. At Needles, California, it was lllc in the shade when passed and it was early June. l wander what the temperature' is in August? It must be terrific for the government will allow only the air-cooled cars to cross the desert as the Water boils out of the radiators of the other cars and leaves them stranded in the desert with nothing but alkali water to use. - We arrived in Riverside, California, at eight P. M. Pacific time or eleven P. M. Eastern time. We had dinner at the Glenwood Mission lnn, built by the Mission priests to per- petuate the outstanding architectural features of the old Cali- fornia missions. The dining room is an open air court-yard enclosed on four sides by the hotel. P The lnn is a regular museum on the first and second and basement floors. There are passages under it which are about a mile in length and remind the tourist of the secret passagesiin a medieval castle. The next morning we drove around the city and sur- roun.ding country. The city has wide, well paved streets, bordered by beautiful pepper and palm trees. It is situated in a valley surrounded by foothills and dotted with citrus groves, rose bordered highways and small, rugged hills rising here and there from the lowlands. One of these hills within the city is Mount Rubidoux, to the top of which is an excellent road and few visitors to the city miss a ride to the summit and a View of the cross raised there in honor of Father Junipero Serra, the leader among the early Mission Fathers. It is here 12 SPECTATOR V to Mount Rubidoux that thousands of pilgrims go each Easter Sunday morning for a sunrise praise service. Besides being a beauty spot, Riverside is also an educa- tional center, for it has a branch of the University of California and it has a great indian School, which is conducted by the United States Government. l3II-M Betty Monoghan, '24 ' You fellows look like a bunch of lost sheep. Can't you manage to find something to do? What's the matter with the berries? l heard the bushes were black with them up on Rock Hill. Why don't you get up a picnic? The group of boys who had been loafing around the livery stable came to attention. Mr. McMaster's suggestions usually worked out. How would we get there? lt's too far to walk, prompted Roger Wilmont. Well, l might be persuaded to lend you a couple of wagons for the occasion. But how about the girls? l'd be willing to bet that there's more than one nice looking girl in this town hankering to pick berries. Suppose you call up a girl apiece. They'll be glad to furnish lunch enough for two. After a little discussion the boys arrived at the conclu- sion that the plan was feasible. The details were arranged and the gathering broke up. Roger, struck by a sudden ,thought, entered the nearest drug store and asked to use the phone. Permission being granted, he seized the phone book and turned the pages rap- idly. Ah! there it was--Marlington, l3l I-M. He lifted the receiver and gave his number. After a short wait a girlish voice answered over the wire. Hella Hello, is this Mary? Roger asked. Yes, this is Mary, came the reply. Mary, this is Roger Wilmont talking. A bunch of us fellows are going to invite the girls to a berry-picking party to-morrow and l thought maybe you'd like to go? SPECTATOR 13 Why, I'd be delighted, Roger. Where are we going? and what time? and how about the lunches? came the eager queries. Roger explained the details and hung up in a happy frame of mind. Mary Marlington was the belle of the village and Roger knew without a doubt that every other fellow who intended to go to that picnic would call her up as soon as he was able. For once he had got her first! He returned home and related his good fortune to his mother. Mrs. Wilmont, wisely taking advantage of a moment when her son was too elated to mutter his usual protests against having to do 'kids' errands, sent him to the grocery store for some necessary purchases. Whistling merrily Roger swung up the street, entered the store and gave his orders to the grocer. He was in such high good humor that he did not even notice Mary Johnson leaning against a case at the other side of the store. Perhaps he would not have noticed her since he only knew her as the daughter of Mrs. Johnson, who used to cook for his mother. Besides, she wasn't the same as the other girls of Roger's acquaintance. She wore her hair in two long braids down her back instead of cutting it off and Huffing it all over her head as the other girls did. Her laughing brown eyes looked out of a frecklecl face which held no trace of paint or powder. The other girls wore smart things, or lacy things, or fashionable thingsg but her dresses were all homemade and simple. No, she wasn't like the other girls he knew. Consequently Roger was some- what surprised when she stepped up to him and spoke so confidently. What on earth was she talking about? She was thank- ing him for inviting her to go where? To the picnic? But- And then came the terrible realization! It must have been Mary johnson instead of Mary Marlington that he got over the phone. He got away from her with as good grace as possible, gathered up his bundles and returned home. Throwing the packages on the table, he took up the phone book and looked through the M's. Yes, there it was-Mar iington, l3l I-N, instead of M. He turned to the fs and found that Johnson's number was l3l l-M. Pouring out the whole bitter tale to his mother, he declared that he could never take Mary Johnson. She wasn't in his set. Why he 14 sPEcrAToR would be ashamed to look any of the fellows in the face. They would make fun of him for the rest of his life. Mrs. Wilmont, with a mother's ready understanding and sympathy, quieted him and pointed out that he couldn't back out now. It was his duty as a gentleman to take the girl he had invited. Roger recognized the justice of his mother's advice and promised that he would carry it through. But in spite of his good intentions, the rest of that day was spent in brooding and it was a long time before he could get to sleep that night. He started down to the livery stable the next morning with a heavy heart. The rest were all there waiting for him. Somehow things didn't look so bad as he had thought they would be. Mary Johnson's simple gingham dress looked much more suitable for berry-picking than Mary Marlington's filmy creation. . The merry party piled into the waiting wagons and the horses started off. Upon arriving at Rock Hill they unloaded, set the lunch baskets under a tree and started with their buckets into the berry patches. Mary Johnson, whose nimble fingers were accustomed to work, soon had her bucket filled and upon seeing the other Mary sitting disconsolate on a rock, afraid to go among the brambles with her flimsy costume, she filled hers too. Dinner time came and the boys waited expectantly while the girls opened the lunch baskets. It seemed that Mary Johnson's mother had not forgotten how to cook. The ample basket contained home-made pickles and pickled eggs, sugary doughnuts, fragrant gingerbread, sweet-tasting little iced cakes, appetizing potato salad, and one of the Johnson's own spring chickens, fried as only Mrs. Johnson knew how to fry chicken. Mrs. Marlington's cook had departed a few days before, so Mary's basket contained only boiled ham, sardines, a Ward's cake, and some pretzels and gingersnaps from the store. After lunch, the party finished filling their buckets and spent the rest of the afternoon in playing games. It had not begun to get dark when the horses and wagons arrived to take them home. On the way back somebody suggested another party when chestnuts were ripe. Everyone agreed and they made their plans thenand there. just as they drove into town Roger whispered something into Mary Johnson's ear which caused her to nod and smile happily. S P E C T A T O R 15 One morning in early October, Roger Wilmont awakened to find the ground covered with the first heavy frost of the season and by arrangement the Saturday after the first frost was the day they were going for chestnuts. This was Thurs- day. The day after to-morrow they would go. Roger hastily dressed, went to the phone and lifted the receiver. ul-3-l-l-M, he called distinctly into the mouthpiece. The same girlish Voice that had answered him two months before came over the wire. This is Roger speaking, Mary. You're going with me for chestnuts, aren't you? Oh, Roger, l'm so glad you called up, came the reply. George Stevens and Gus and Harry Lambert and Hugh Brandon have called me up, but l told them I promised to go with you! .1m Who ls Sylvia? Katharine Kurtz, '24 ' Going to the Halloween spread tomorrow evening? inquired Bob I-latley of his friend, Paul Reynolds. Sure, agreed Paul, but I don't know how to dress. You know we are all to be masked. It was the thirtieth of October. The boys belonged to a small college in a New England town. The Juniors of the college were holding a Halloween party for the Seniors and everyone was invited. The next morning Paul saw Bob coming into the room with a curious looking bundle. What's in that bundle? he asked. Your laundry? Laundry nothing. lt's my suit for tonight. Then Paul remembered he must borrow a suit if he wished to go to the party. I-le thought it over and decided on a plan that he could hardly keep to himself, but to tell anyone would ruin it. The evening was an ideal one for such an occasion. While Bob was dressing, Paul came into their room. Better hurry, or we'll be late, Paul. l'm not going, answered Paul. Not going? Bob stopped in amazement. Why, man, you'll miss one half of your life! 16 SPECTATOR I know, answered Paul, somewhat regretfully, but it's the doctor's orders that I get more sleep, so l guess l'll stay home. What was wrong, Bob wondered. l'd cut the doctor's orders this time, he urged. Bob was dressed as a knight and he made a fine appear- ance. When he arrived at the banquet hall, many people were there: beggars, clowns, knights, courtiers and even King Louis of France. The girls also made a fine appearance. At eight sharp, the party began. The orchestra struck up good music, to which some danced. About half-past eight, quite a stir was made by an attractive young girl entering, dressed as a maid of long ago. Her chestnut brown hair was adorned with a rose and she wore a lace dress trimmed in rose, and dainty slippers. No one knew who she was and everyone wished to dance with her. Bob Hatley got into the race, and when he asked her to dance with him, she said, Cer- tainlyf' ln fact she seemed to take a liking to Bob as she danced with him more than with any one else. Bob began to think. Who was she? Where was she from? There was something familiar in her bearing but where had he seen her before. Then he thought, wasn't Paul miss- ing itl The dance finished, each one retired to his favorite cor- ner, with his favorite companion. Bob and the girl sat to- gether, but neither said much. After one more dance, came time for unmasking. Bob was delighted at this for now he could see who his fair companion was. just as he turned the girl Hittecl through the door like a butterfly. Bob was after her in a moment. She stopped on the veranda and sat on one of the swings. Bob was with her immediately. What's the idea? he asked, anxiously. What? she answered in an amused tone. Why don't you wish to unmask? ul don't wish to be known. Silence for a few moments. Who are you, anyway? finally asked Bob. Who is Sylvia? she replied, laughing. Oh, bosh, cut it out. I've made up my mind you're the nicest girl here and I wish to know you. But you do know me, very well. No, l don't. - , .SPECTATOB .Q 17 Well, I am sorry, but l have to go. With this she dis- appeared through the door into the hall. Bob followed her, but she was lost in the crowd, and search as he would he failed to find her. He did not enjoy the rest of the evening and was at the school dormitory before half-past ten. When he reached the room, Paul was there, apparently asleep. The next morning, Bob began to tell Paul of the good time he had had at the party, but Paul did not have much to say. A few weeks later, as the boys were going home for Thanksgiving, they began to pack. Bob came upon a queer looking bundle. Paul grabbed for it but Bob was too quick. He opened it and there he found-the costume the girl had worn to the dance. He stood, mouth open, looking at Paul, who had begun to laugh. How and where did you get this? Bob asked, rather angrily. 'il was Sylvia, Paul answered, in the same tone that the girl had used on the night that she had disappeared. T. The Race Charles W. Stahl, HZZM Jerry Bennet was a professional racer. He had captured the trophy as well as the cash prize at many of the leading speedways. He had the daring qualities of a superior driver, which made it possible for him to defy death in his mad speed. Although he had succeeded in covering the first two legs of the Universal Speedway Trophy, he was undecided about racing for the third and last leg of the trophy, which would make him the world's champion racer. Through his racing career he had witnessed many acci- dents on speedways. Some were unavoidable on the part of the drivers, while others were caused by foul play. In previous races he had been very lucky, but there was one dark thought, the one which caused his uncertainty about the third leg of the Universal Trophy. The cause of the uncertainty was Alex Pardock. Aleck had caused a collision in the Autumn Classics. He was not convicted because it was impossible to furnish substantial evidence against him. The driver and mechanic 18 SPECTATOR f of the car which participated in the accident were killed, making it impossible for them to render evidence against him. Alex had also finished the first two legs of the Universal Trophy, and had planned to race in the Spring Classics at Indianapolis. For this reason Jerry expected foul play. Although the question of foul play meant much to Jerry, he thought of the double prize which awaited him if he should be the winner. He not only would win the trophy but also a modest little bride, whom he dearly loved. This bride-to- be was Polly Trexel, the daughter of a racing car manufacturer, who had employed Jerry to drive one of his cars. Two weeks before the race Jerry was making prepara- tions for the event. At first he had decided to ship his car and hire a man to accompany it, but on second thought he decided to accompany the car from Los Angeles to Indian- apolis himself. The train was scheduled to pull out of Los Angeles at 9:45, so he put a cot in the box car and prepared for a night's rest. Not long after the train left Los Angeles he heard a rustling noise in the other end of the car, where he had thrown a canvas covering used for the car. As he stared into the darkness the form of a man passed a window, and by the moonlight Jerry saw that he had tools in his hands. After lifting the hood of the car, he changed all the carburetor ad- justments, loosened the distributor points, and had started to damage the vacuum tank when Jerry pounced upon him and knocked him down. To his surprise it was Alex. Jerry sum- moned the conductor and at the next station Alex was turned over to the police. On arriving in Indianapolis jerry met Polly Trexel and her father. They had come to see the race and to see the rigid qualities of Mr. Trexel's car tested. After telling Mr. Trexel of his experience, they looked over the car, which was one of the eight cylinder type, which bore the name Straight and number Eight. Knowing what Alex had done to the car it did not take Jerry long to make repairs. It was just two days before the race. While looking over the lineup of drivers and cars Jerry noticed that the number of one of the cars was familiar to him. It was number Thir- teen, Alex's car. To his surprise he learned that Alex had hired another driver to run the race. l-le had thought that Alex's car would not race, but now he was confronted with SPECTATOR 19 the same trouble as before. He visited Mr. Trexel at the hotel and made further plans. Great advantage was taken of the day which still remained. The carpenters were repairing the grandstands and railings, while the drivers were busy tuning up their motors to pass the speed requirement. While taking a trial run Jerry noticed the motor was not hitting properly. The trouble seemed to be in the carburetor. He drove from the track to his stall, which resembled a stable such as is used in horse racing. He took the float out of the carburetor and feeling an extraordinary weight he discovered it had gasoline in it. He noticed a tiny hole in the side which had been caused by someone driving a pin into it. He soon had a new float in the carburetor and was back on the track. He quali- fied with ease While the driver who had taken Alex's place barely passed. The track assistants were busy preparing and arranging the pit necessities. The day of the race dawned. At nine o'clock the morn- ing bomb was given and at twelve the noon bomb was given. Then at regular intervals flag bombs were given. Each bomb unfurled a Hag which represented the nationality of a driver. At the close of these bombs, animal bombs were given, con- sisting of elephants, horses, etc. The drivers and cars were given alignment and awaited the starting order. The peace dove was freed and the drivers shook hands. Just before the start jerry heard a familiar voice from the grandstand. It was Polly's voice. He waved his helmet and prepared for the start. The starter waved the flag and the race was on, it being one of the five hundred mile type. The first two hundred miles went smoothly. The smell of burning castor oil was intense and the roar of the motors could be heard for miles. Many of the competitors left the track on account of motor trouble and other causes. Jerry had started in sixth place but had forged his way up to second place. He was now following Thirteen which had started in first place. Thirteen was gain.ing its first lap on Five which could not keep up to the pace. As Thirteen passed number Five the driver of Alex's car turned to the left causing his left rear wheel to hook onto the right front wheel of Five, throwing it to the bottom of the track with a bent axle. Jerry alone knew the cause of the accident. Although 20 SPECTATOR he had more speed than Thirteen he did not dare pass him anywhere but in front of the grandstand. Surely Thirteen could not cause an accident here or he would be caught in his dirty work. After three hundred miles of terrific heat gen- erated by the high speed, one of Jerry's tires went bad. This placedihim behind Thirteen again. But Thirteen too had to enter the pits on account of motor trouble. Again they bat- tled for first place. On the four hundredth lap Jerry entered the pits for gas and tires. While preparing he again heard the familiar voice. With only time to wave, he started. Again he passed Thirteen at the grandstand with great applause. This spurred him on. On the four hundred and sixtieth lap he tried to pass Thirteen on Death Curve, but Thirteen cut in on him and they locked wheels. Jerry cut short to the right and Thirteen went rolling to the bottom of the track, but righted itself on its wheels, and tried to enter the race but had to drop out on account of a bent spindle. This made a clear field with no close competition. After what he thought and endless number of laps Jerry saw the black and white checkered Hag which meant he was the winner. His average was ll2.2 miles per hour. He made several extra laps and entered the pit. Here he had his picture taken and accepted compliments including that of Mr. Trexel. When the roar of motors had ceased and the grounds were free, Jerry took Polly for a ride around the speedway. Upon stopping at the grandstand they met Mr. Trexel and a minister. 'The racer again proceeded, but this time there were three passengers, and, enveloped in the roar of the motor, the final lap 'of a second race was won. SPECTATOR 21 Principafs Page The following Constitution for student participation in the government of Johnstown High School has been adopted by the Student Council and the Faculty on Student Affairs. The plan of the student-government organization consists of a home-room representative body and a student council. The Student Council shall be the government organiza- tion of the Johnstown High School. its members shall be elected every year by a popular vote of the school, represen- tation being appointed in the following manner: Six senior girls, six senior boys, three junior girls, three junior boys, one sophomore girl and one sophomore boy, making twenty al- together. ln addition to these the editor of the Spectator, the captain of each athletic team and the leaders of the band and orchestra shall be members of the Student Council. V Meetings shall be held at the call of the president. Any matters affecting the general welfare of the school come within the scope of the Council. The two main purposes of the home room representative body are to carry to the home room groups, plans or instruc- tions that necessarily should go directly from Student Coun- cilg and to carry out ideas of the Council that require a greater number than the Council affords. Meetings of the home room representatives are called by the president of the Student Council, who is ex-officio presi- dent of the representative body. Officers of the Student Council are in like manner officers of the home room repre- sentative body. Members of the council are privileged to attend the meetings of the home room representative body, but do not have the power to vote. A few reasons for student participation in school gov- ernment: l. lt promotes a readiness to accept responsibilities. Nothing develops virtues more quickly than responsibilities. 2. It gives practice in solving social and moral prob- lems. The autocratic method of government develops an at- titude that anything is right that is not found out. 22 SPECTATOR 3. It directs the energies of the natural leaders toward constructive government. 4. It can develop a sympathetic relationship between faculty and students. Each student as well as each faculty member can feel that he is truly participating in the functioning of the school. 5. It offers to every pupil the greatest opportunity for practice in the art of citizenship. Whatever kind of knowledge our High Schools succeed in teaching, they fail in their most essential function if they do not devolop the qualities of good democratic citizenship. To train for a democracy the school must be a democracy. With all this in mind our students are given an oppor- tunity to train for positive upright citizenship by cooperation in school government. CONSTITUTION OF THE STUDENT COUNCQL ARTICLE I-Purpose and Name ' ln order to foster the sentiment for law and order in the school, to provide opportunities for student co-operation in the internal government of the school, to promote worthy stu- dent activities and to promote the general welfare of the school, this constitution establishing the student government organization in the Johnstown High School has been adopted by the student council and faculty committee on student af- fairs. ARTICLE ll-Form of Organization The student-government organization shall consist of a home-room representative body and a student council. ARTICLE lll-Membership in the Student Council Section l.

SPECTATOR 27 Ed1tOfl3lS THE ALUMNI NUMBER By the time this number appears the plans for the Alumni Number of the Spectator will be well on the way. At this point the Spectator wishes to assure its readers that the plans for this issue are the most ambitious entered upon for any special number. It might be well to state that this is not a new idea. ln I9l l and again in 1915 plans for an Alumni number were put through and the success of these in a measure is an inspiration for the present staff. However, our object is not merely to equal these numbers, but to, if possible, surpass in both extent and contents. There will be reminiscences by the older graduates and articles by various members of the Alumni now in college. Also in this section there will be injected bits of verse. Another interesting department is promised in the edi- torial section which will include brief editorials from former editors and messages from past presidents to their classmates. ln addition to these will be excerpts from the Spectator files which promise to be both humorous and enlightening. Color will be added to this number by a cartoon and an at- tractive cover design drawn by members of the alumni. Then, too, there will be the usual departments each carrying the idea of Christmas cheer and Fraternity. Owing to insufficient data at hand it is a rather difficult task for a staff just putting out their third number to put this across and we ask that you, our readers, so aid us as to make the selling of this issue easier. We would urge, since there is to be but a limited number of this edition, that you do your Christmas shopping early, and if you are not a regular sub- scriber that. you avoid disappointment by getting your order for this number in now. i za :SPECTATOR SINCE ARMISTICE DAY On November eleventh, nineteen hundred and eighteen, an armistice was signed which suspended all hostilities between nations in the late world war. This year we celebrate the fourth anniversary of its sign- ing, and it is extremely interesting to note the changes which have been brought about during this interval. The armistice served to hasten the coming of peace. With peace came the prevention of bloodshed and loss of property. During the period of reconstruction which followed the war a careful deliberation of such important world prob- lems as the Irish question, the India question, and that of Palestine, was brought about. The League of Nations created a friendliness between nations for stabilizing business relations, and rendering assist- ance to war-stricken victims. ln I92l a Disarmament Conference was introduced to the world. At this conference problems of different nations were brought before elected representatives for discussion and definite settlemena. The Russian revolutions and the Greco-Turk uprising are among the most recent occurrences. A E. N. N. SGHQQL EWS The Music Department is up and doing and is deserv- ing of special attention from the student body. The Girls' Orchestra, which was one of our dreams, is now being organized. The Girls' Quartet rendered a selection at the Teachers' Institute, held Friday, October 20, in the High School. The Band played at the lndustrial Exposition, held the first week of October. The Drawing Department has organized a new and very interesting club, namely, the Sketch Club. This club meets every Thursday, the sixth period. It is especially for boys, but any pupil may join it who does not have a class at that period. This club takes up sketching of Various objects taken from life. It is very interesting, and the Drawing Department is to be commended for having organized this club. At the election of the Student Council, which took place last Wednesday and Thursday mornings, October l l and l2, the following students' were chosen as members: Seniors, Louise Reed, Edith Resley, Kathryn Gocher, Robert Bowers, Clifford Small, Horace Bailey, Louise Krebs, Dorothy Hoff- man, Madaleine Elliott, Harry Philips, Robert Kahl, Robert Burkhartg Juniors, Kathryn Walker, Kathryn Ryan, Dorothy Hamilton, Fred Darr, Donald Buchanan, Emory Kristof 3 Soph- omores, Dorothy Jane Davis and John Grey. The Editor of the Spectator, Brandon Rhoclehamelg the Captain of the Foot- ball Team, John Maleyg Leader of the Band, Clarence Bow- man, and Albert Seihl, Captain of the Track Team, are also members of the Council. At a meeting of this council on October l6, the following officers were elected: President, Albert Seihlg Vice President, Edith Resleyg Secretary, John Maley. On Wednesday and Thursday mornings, October I8 and l9, the Assembly delegates were chosen. A reception was held for the Windber team, October l4, at the Penrose Academy. It was a huge success, a large num- ber of students from Windber and also from Johnstown being present. ' so sPEcrA'roR ,P The Term VIII Class held a Masquerade Party in the High School Gymnasium on October 28. This party was a strictly class affair. A play entitled The Ghost Story, writ- ten by Booth Tarkington, was given. The cast of characters was as follows: George, Cleading manl, Clifford Small, Anna, fleading ladyl, Mildred Barnhartg four young couples, Elea- nor Molitor, Kenneth McMeans, Marie Schenkenmeyer, John Ford, Edna Scott, Charles Smith, Lillie Rehn, and Park Shaf- ferg the maid, Catherine Ober. Various Halloween stunts were put on between dances, so that the party was for those who did not dance, as well as for those who did. The Term VII Class has chosen the class ring, which bears the usual HJ. H. S. and the class numerals. The design is altogether different from any used in preceding classes. At John Thomas 6: Sons' Open House, the High School had charge of the musical program, which was as fol- lows: Three O'clock in the Morning, by the High School Bandg Piano Duet fselectedl by Grace Broderick and Agnes Marting Cal Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes, fb, Carry Me Back to Old Virginnyf' by the High School Male Quartet: Overture, King Rose, by the Band, Vocal Solo, Three O'Clock in the Morning, by Lawrence Fritz: Just a Little Love Song, by the Band: To Thee, O, Country, by the Mixed Octet: Physical Drill by High School Boysg Officer of the Day March by the Bandg Finale, Three O'clock in the Morning, by the Band. From this program it can be seen that Johnstown High may be proud of her musical talent. interesting chapel exercises were held October 3rd and 4th. Miss Millar, a Y. W. C. A. worker, gave an interesting address to the students. The pupils of H. S. were glad to see Miss Millar again, as they had not forgotten the interesting addresses which she delivered last year. Robert James, a Term VIII student, was recently elected President of the Hi-Y Club, and also President of the Y. M. C. A. Cabinet. Thomas Neal, also a term VIII student, was elected Secretary and Treasurer of the Cabinet.

Union when a scoreless game was played on the Point grounds, Saturday, Sept. 30. The two teams fought for the upper hand, but a dusty field and the warm weather seemed to take all the life out of the players. Mt. Union won the toss and elected to receive the kick- off. The ball was in action rnost of the time during the first quarter but the only gain which amounted to anything was made by Mason, full back for the Mt. Union team, when he snatched a forward passed by Fyock and made a sixty-yard run. The score at the end of the Hrst quarter was Johnstown 0, Mt. Union 0. Mt. Union gained the most territory. The second quarter started with the ball on the fifteen- yard line and ended with the ball in Johnstown's possession on the twenty-two yard line. The score remained Johnstown 0, Mt. Union 0. The ground gained by each team was about equal. There was much fumbling during the third quarter. Gerlock, of Mt. Union, failed on a placement kick and the ball was Johnstown's on downs at the thirty-yard line. The Johnstown boys failed in their attempts at forward passing and the third quarter ended with neither team scoring. The fourth quarter saw the game going from bad to worse and the attempts of the Johnstown lads to gain were fruitless. The forward passes failed in all cases and the game ended with a nothing score.

JOHNSTOWN HIGH TRIUMPHS OVER CONNELISVILLE The Johnstown High School football team triumphed over the Connellsville High eleven in the game which was played on the Point grounds, Saturday, October 7. The thrill of the game came in the last quarter when the local boys unleashed an aerial attack in which Charley Fleckenstein made a 7l-yard run before he was downed. Connellsville won the toss and elected to kick. The ball was on the twenty-two yard line at the end of the first quar- ter, the score being Johnstown 0, Connellsville 0. The team tried hard at this point for a touchdown and were rewarded by scoring seven points. Lowney kicked to Strange on the twenty-five yard line. The Johnstown team continued to gain and would have scored had the whistle not blown for the half. The score was Johnstown 7, Connells- ville 0. The third quarter was uneventful, little ground being gained by either side. The local boys tried a few forward passes, one of which was successful. Vince Hartnett received a forward from Fyock and netted fourteen yards. The third quarter ended without a score. The fourth quarter opened by Vince Hartnett kicking to McCormack. The ball was soon returned to Burkhard. Johns- town again lost the ball on downs. After a few unsuccessful attempts to gain ground Connellsville returned. The whistle blew, just after a long run had been made by Fleckenstein, ending the game: the score being Johnstown 7, Connellsville 0. 36 E CTATOR Johnstown 7 Slehl ..........,,.....,.......

JOHNSTOWN HIGH VICTORS OVER WINDBER The Johnstown High School Football Team displayed such a fighting attack upon the Windber team that it left them completely bewildered in the first few moments of play. The Windber team might have gone home without a score had not their coach given his backs field instruction to use the forward pass. It was in this manner that Windber scored six points within the last few minutes of play. The first quarter took Windber by complete surprise. The Johnstown team displayed such pep and fighting spirit that Windber was thrown off guard. It was withinia few min- utes' play that Johnstown made its first touchdown. Maley failed in his placement kick and the score was Johnstown 6, Windber 0. A few plays ended the quarter. Little ground was gained or lost either way. The second quarter proved successful for the local lads. Strange received a forward pass from Fyock and dashed down the field fifty yards for a touchdown. Maley then kicked off to Gochnour on the eight yard line. The ball was taken back, however, for a Johnstown player had been offside and by the time the ball was again in play the half ended. The score was Johnstown l2, Windber 0. SPECTATOR 37 The third quarter proved to be unlcky for Johnstown. The ball was at one time within six yards of the Windber line but the boys were unable to deliver the finishing touches. The quarter ended with the score remaining Johnstown IZ, Wind- ber 0. The fourth quarter started with the ball in Johnstown's possession on Windber's six-yard line. A two-yard gain made by Vince Hartnett was of no avail for the ball was lost on downs. Windber thenn opened up an aerial attack in the last thirty seconds of play which brought them a touchdown. The score was Johnstown l2, Windber 0. Johnstown 12 .

THE LOCK HAVEN GAME Lock Haven defeated the Johnstown High School Team in a hard-fought game on the Point Grounds, October 28. The local team was completely outclassed and it is no dis- credit to them that a score of I9 to 0 was rolled up against them. The game was one that was fast, and the playing showed that Johnstown has a good defense, else Lock Haven would have gone home with a, much larger score. as sPscrAToR ' Lock Haven had a number of trick plays which netted them most of the grounnd they gained, as littl ewas made from the locals on line plunges. Forward passes were used with great effect by the opposing team. THE PEP CLUB The Pep Club will give its Hrst dance and social function Saturday, November l8, when the High School Jazz Orchestra will make its appearannce and furnish the music for the even- ing.

SPECTATOR 39 Alumni otes To preserve the interest of graduates in the High School after they have left it, and to bring them back again within its doors, was the aim of Alumni Chapel held Wednesday morn- ing, October 25. An entire section of the Auditorium was filled with Alumni who responded to the invitation. The fol- lowing program was carried out: Overture, High School Orchestrag Scripture reading and prayer, Mr. Rippleg Welcome to Alumni, Robert Bowers, pres- ident of the Senior Classg Response, Dr. Charles Speck, presi- dent of the Alumni Association: vocal selections, High School Girls' Quartetg college medley, Orchestrag cornet solo, Clar- ence Bowman.

This class distinction is disappearing, and with it goes your individual advantage over others gained by your superior training for life. Census reports for I920 showed that of the children of school age in Johnstown under I3 years, 97.2 percentum attended school, and that aljove the age of I3 attendance dwindled until only 32.4 percentum of those I6 to I7 years old were in school, and only 9.8 percentum of those I8 to 20 years old. Two out of three dropped out at I6, and at 18, nine out of I0 disappeared. The percentage of I8-20 year old pupils was a good deal less than the percentage of foreign-born white illiterates of I0 years and over. llliteracy, however, is rapidly decreasing, drop- ping from 9 per cent in I9I0 to less than 4 percent in I920. Nearly all children under I3 attend schoolg ancl for the greater ages the figures are im- proving, so that boys and girls who quit school with the grammar grades now have only an average edu- cation. ln a few years, Junior High will be the average. A few years after that, High School will be the average. High School study today is necessary to put you above the common run of common school out-put. What you get out of High School is what will give you your advantage over the average.. The use you make of your special privilege must justify that privilege.

'w 8 SPECTATOR A Brief Retrospect Fred Krebs, Old Guard In l868, when the Borough of Johnstown comprised the territory now included in the first six wards of the City, the Johnstown High School was organized under the stimulus of Dr. W. W .Walters, father of Anderson I-l. Walters, Editor of the Johnstown Tribune. ' The school occupied one room on the second floor of the new school house on Washington Street, now the passen- ger station of the B. 6: O. Railroad Company. Professor A. 'C. Johnson was the principal and the only instructor of the 26 girls and 6 boys. The term of six months opened June 19th, and closed December 17th, l868. The course included Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Gram- mar, Philosophy, Physiology, Botany, United States History, Algebra, Geometry, Physics, Music and Civil Government. Latin was not a part of the regular course of study, but sev- eral pupils studied it and recited after school hours. How- ever, it was included in the course of study in the following year. . . It was the custom to trap in the recitation classes, and the pupil who maintained his seat at the head of the class for one week, received special praise in his report book, certify- ing that he had held the post of honor for one week. At the first of the following week the proud bearer of this honor moved to the foot of the class, and again entered the struggle for the place of honor. The one room in the Washington Street Building was used until about l875, when the school was transferred to the Adams Street Building about IS76. ln l88l it was removed to the Union Street Building. ln I89Z the entire third floor of the new building of the Somerset Street Building was occupied by the High School, and in i900 the present High School Building, costing with complete furnishings, SI00,000.00, was formally dedicated. About 200'pupils entered the school that year. C The public indifference to High School education prior to I9'00 is indicated by the slow growth of the school. From I868 to P1898 C30 years,-the enrollment grew from 32 to SPECTATOR 9 104. ln 1902 it was 246, and in 1906 the enrollment was 358. The number of pupils this year is about 1500. ' ln 1882 a three-years' course of study was adopted by Supt. -T. B. Johnson. ln 1884 it was made a four-year course. The first commencement exercises of the High School were held in the Union Hall in 1882. The graduating class consisted of Mary Cooper, Lizzie Barnes, Anna Kratzer, Mary Purse Layton, Sue Morley, Louise Muller and Mame Walters. The High School Literary Society, organized in 1871, was an interesting feature which brought the school promi- nently before the people. Public meetings were held every Friday evening, which received favorable notices by the two daily papers. Public entertainments were given in Union Hall. A weekly paper, The Literary Herald, was publish'ed. ln the height of its glory it had the audacity to enter into a tilt with the Tribune, in which it held its own. It flourished for about five years and then followed the course of so many institutions of its kind--it quietly faded away. The High School Alumni Association was organized june 5th, 1896. At the conclusion of the commencement exer- cises of the High School, 42 graduates assembled in the City Superintendenfs office, and effected an organization by elect- ing Fred Krebs, Presidentg Dr. Frank Geer, First Vice Presi- dentg Watson Horner, Second Vice President and Miss Mag- dalene Lohr, Secretary. A committee was appointed to prepare a Constitution and by-laws, and another committee to arrange a banquet. For a number of years the Alumni gave a banquet to the grad- uating class. These banquets and receptions were very en- joyable affairs, but they were finally abandoned, as the grad- uating classes became too large to be entertained in this manner. The Alumni Association can become an important factor in the development of 'the life of Johnstown. It is a source of satisfaction to note that the Johnstown High School has sent out men and women who have become prominent in the professional, the industrial, the commercial and the civic life of the City. This is as it should beg the High School should be the training school for leadership in the affairs of the community. ' It should be the aim of the Alumni Association to main- 10 SPECTATOR tain among its members an interest in public affairs. With its growing membership the Association can become one of the most important factors in the progress of Johnstown. It should develop not only efficient leadership, but a body of citizenship that will wisely elect the highest grade of leaders and intelligently support them. Johnstown will grow and prosper in proportion to the intelligence and the spirit of service radiating from its Public Schools. It is a far cry from the l-ligh School of 1868 with an enrollment of 32 pupils, to the school of 1922 with i500 pupils, and a far cry from the Alumni Association of i896 with 42 members, to the Alumni Association of I922 with its hundreds of members. What a mighty force a coherent, well-organized Alumni Association with definite well-directed aims would be in up- building our City! Class of '82 Mary Cooper, 1882 The Class of l882-What a moving picture it would have made on one of its Activity Days. What an infinite variety offtypes--gay and serious, shirkers and workers, but- terfly and beel But the good times squeezed in between whiles, before and after lessons, on the way to and from school, only boys and girls of that age know how best to fill time to the brim, dripping, sweet and joyous. Continual sur- prises lurked just around the corner, some pleasant, others 'twere well to forget. No doubt, every class that graduates wonders if every other class did really crowd as much fun into a day as theyg if they did work as hard to avoid work as they, if fate did at times conspire to detain the body in the l-louse of Learning when the spirit was dancing and skipping out-of-doors. A ln l878, the class of l882 entered l-ligh School, which was located in one of the rooms at the Adams Street building. ln 1881 the High School was transferred to the Union Street Building. Most of the members of the class were motor types. Thirty minutes was a long time to expect them to sit quietly studying, forty-five minutes an impossibility. There wasn't the outlet of domestic and fine arts for them to work off sur- plus energy. Consequently, they were, to say the least, most SPECTATOR- ll trying, most of all of the time. So, it was decided to hold graduation exercises, invite the public and give each member an honorable dismissal for the sake of those who were to follow. . i As l remember there were three girls in the class who loved learning for learning's sake. One of the girls had a brilliant mind. When it came to examinations, she was the envy of the entire class. Gradually the less endowed men- tally developed a philosophy of acceptance. The Good Fairy had withheld from the majority the precious endowment of discernment. However, it may be, out of pity, she left lying around a few gifts not to be lightly despised, humor, resiliency, enthusiasm, good health, the faith that tomorrow will be as full as today. , E ln those good old carefree days, literature and public speaking were stressed. Long poems were learned and re- cited by the whole school. Friday afternoon exercises af- forded excellent opportunity in training to stand on one's feet and talk. What though some of the trips were to the moon, we declaimed as we tripped and in time lost the terrifying feeling of walking in midair without ballast when called upon to speak our thin, thin, thoughts. The First Commencement Exercises! It took one month after school closed to make ready to appear in pilnlic. The first class to have graduation exercises was an affair of civic importance. A precedent was being established. Pioneer work at best is difficult but there are compensations. No one of us before or since has felt half as important to the com- munity, or one tenth as necessary to his own little world. There were invitations to be selected and ordered. Material for dresses discussed. Practice meetings where young ladies learned the fine art of bowing, standing, speaking, and gestur- ing. The Superintendent and Principal nearly came to blows over the proper way for a young lady to make a bow. One demanding heels together and toes out at an angle of forty- five degrees: the other equally insistent that standing on the left foot, drawing the right foot back, resulted in the most graceful bow. While the controversy waxed fast and furious the teacher of German threw out a bomb: Don't you know that there are reasons why a young lady cannot bow with heels together. Henceforth and forevermore we have balanced on one foot, and tried to preserve our equilibrium with the other poised for flight. ' 12 SPECTATOR The long anticipated day came. Our bangs had been Hputfupu in quince seed for' twelve hours. Our last rehearsal was on.' We were on tip-toe for the great event. Announce- ment was made that cabs would be sent-to the homes at a cer- tain hour and that they wouldn't wait a minute. Superintendent Johnson dismissed us with many admonitions and warnings. I-low could our poor heads hold any more! One of the girls, as though inspired, said on the way out that it was absolutely necessary to powder and paint, that all stage folk did, that the footlights made one look ghastly. Powder and paint! What would our mother say? Such a commotion! One of the quick-witted of the group said, ul know what we can do. Wet the petals of a red rose for paint and use starch for pow- der. For the honor of the town we did it, and it was worth' while for our Bloom of Youth carried over to the audience who had never realized beforehow very attractive and dazzling we were. ' l must tell you of our white kid gloves, the sleeves of our dresses, how I should like to write gowns,.were short. The gloves were one button. Do you know, I have since thought that perhaps long gloves would have been more appropriate but then it was only the matter of a few buttons after all. The crowning event of the evening was an invitation to each and every one to duly repair with all haste to Fend's lce-Cream Parlor to partake of a dish of ice cream and a piece of home-made cake. And this was The End of the Most Perfect Day in Our Young Lives.. Class of 85 Bertha Caldwell, M. D., '85. Several weeks ago members of the Alumni Association of the Johnstown Public Schools were invited to the chapel ex- ercises of the classes of '22 and '23, in order that they might imbibe some of the, perhaps, lost class spirit. The School Orchestra and the students of the two upper classes filled the Auditorium to capacity. It was an interesting and enter- taining affair. The Orchestra played some Jazz and Patriotic airsg one trombone player showed he was almost ready to compete with Al Fields' minstrels: four lovely little girls sang two pretty songs, and then the Class President welcomed the SPECTATOR 13 Alumni, in a short but very appropriate address, making fre- quent references to school spirit. To illustrate this spirit, .he had those present give the school yell, which almost raised the roof. It was a noble yell. The President of the Alumni As- sociation thanked the school for the entertainment, compli- mented in a way, those teachers who had managed to hold their positions in the High School for a long time, saying some of them had been there as long as he could remember and would probably remain quite a few years longer. When the writer went back to her office she asked her- self if class spirit were a new thingy and if the class of the present year had, in essentials, anything more than the class of '85. She came to the conclusion that school spirit was born with the schools, and that the present High School classes had larger numbers, more and better prepared teachers, a few more but unimportant subjects, larger buildings and better equipment, but for scholastic attainments, school pep, and brilliant teachers, the class of '85 is and alfways has been, the prize winner. just glance at its personnel: ' In a class of six members who graduated, one is Harry Dick Thomas, who had the distinction of being our only male member. Although he was spoiled by the females of the species, he stood at the head of his class and is now what they call in Wall Street, a merchant prince. I-Ie hasthe very unique experience of being the first and only valedictorian who ever had the courage to stand on the stage, on his graduation night, and tell the Superintendent and Board of Directors 'the class' opinion of them, and how remiss they had been in their duties. For this, although he was allowed to graduate, he was rewarded by being refused a diploma. He has managed to survive and actually become successful without it. Then there was Pollie Menoher, later Phipps, the cause of the dissention, a brilliant, rosy-checked lassie with the spirit of Barbara Freitchie, who was refused the privilege of graduating because she did not believe in discrimination, con- tending she also had a right to choosevthe subject of her essay. Talk about class spirit! Such indignation meetings, such pub- lic sentiment, such heart-burnings, such fiery speeches, never took place before, or since: and on the night of nights, seated on the stage the remaining members of the class, looking up, saw their banished class-'mate seated in the balcony, sur- rounded by flowers and presents, which she received every 14 SPECTATOR time one o fthe other members of the class received one. She had the distinction of being the second member of '85 who did not receive a diploma. Despite all this, she made a won- derful helpmeet to her husband, and a devoted mother to her children until God called her to His Post-Graduate School. Emxna Kate Fisher, our flaxen-haired Emma Kate, of whose musical abilities we were justly proud, earnest in her Work, never too tired to accompany those of us who thought they could sing, and just as willing to enter into the class fun, was our champion paper-bag burster. It was odd how noises could be made without a soul seemingly making them, and the innocence of her face, and the questioning of her big blue eyes, drew all suspicion from her. And then' in the great flood of 1889, the Master called her to join his great choir, and left us to mourn her loss all our days. Ree Metzger was our tall, dignified member, our honored salutatorian, who was not inclined to mischief unless the rest of the class made her an unwilling partner in it. She was Teacher's Pet, but deserved to be, and the rest of us did not. She became a book-keeper and stenographer, one of the kind that spells correctly, paragraphs occasionally, and uses good grammar, a rare accomplishment in these days in stenographers. At present she is with the Oldsmobile firm at Huston, Texas. There was Mary Viola Walter-Mazie, as she was af- fectionately called-dwith all the merriment of the world shin- ing in her brown eyes. When did she miss a joke? When did she fail to make a point? Knowledge sunk into her active brain and flew out of her tongue. She spouted poetry like the poet himself. ln fact she improved upon him. Composition writing was fun to her. Latin and German she absorbed like food. She was our one sweet warbler, and on Friday after- noon stood before a school and parental audience and trilled to us, that: ul know a hill whereon the white thyme grows, until we actually believed it. Later she taught the young idea how to shoot, until she found a mate, and now she answers the telephone in the same dulcet tones in which she sang, and says, DL Kelfer's office. Besides this she manages a house, a husband, a missionary society, takes part in all civics, not forgetting to cast her vote when the occasion offers. And lastly, the writer, the class model, to whose be- havior the Principal was constantly referring in mournful SPECTATOR 15 tones. How she loved to recite poetry, and even write it, in order to show off on special occasions. How she delighted the German Professor-when she was absent, and her popu- larity with her instructors was shown in the number of notes that passed between these instructors and her parents. She was the raving member of the class, 'irunning to and fro upon the earth, looking for new and strange things, and putting into practice her desire to help her fellow man. Back to the town of the brave and free, she came, and settled down as the one and only of her kind in her medical profession in the county. Did the class of '85 possess no school spirit, which was the dominant feature emphasized at the High School Chapel meeting? Class yells were unknown, but we made a mighty noise at times. Football was also unknown, so that the class yells were not needed. But there was Anoise enough when one slipped through the hole made by tearing off the boards at the baseball field, when Altoona played against Johnstown. The feathers, and flowers, and ribbons from our hats, scattered over the baseball field on the school grounds, after school hours, when our class played a rival team, were mute evi- dences of our class enthusiasm: our hoarse voices after a game and our inability to speak above a whisper when called on in geometry next morning, showed we had some kind of a yell. We hadn't one cheer leader, we were all leaders. We had champions, too. One of us was a champion runner-when some one was after her. One was a champion batter, for she always threw her bat backward and knocked the catcher on the head. No class has excelled '85 in anything! No class had a more manly young man in it. No class had longer pigtails, none had better natural complexions, and so far as can be leamed, '85 is the only class that never had shiny noses, and didn't depend on a powder puff. Some Old Schilling, Dated l890-,9-4 8 Dr.' Frank Schill, I894. To the High School Students-the Alumni of the Future- from one of the vintage of l890-'94! GREETINGS: Years ago, when your Uncle Harry was a little boy, auto- graph albums were Very much in vogue. l believe there is a is SPECTATOR W sort of renascence of them onthe horizon. Aside from the banal verses scribbled therein by frivolous and sentimental youths of both sexes, they had much to recommend them. It was a rather nice custom, and much more worthy than saving cigar bands. Every home that was a home-that is before the movies with their Stuart Break-up Holmes'-s'-s' put them on the Fritz-had an autograph album. This lay on the old walnut stands with their marble tops, that looked like ice- cream tables, over which was laid a hand-made doily, that was so thickly crocheted, that the 'bell-covered wax flowers careened like the leaning tower of Pisa, or a prohibition en- forcement officer after getting evidence during a raiclg or to be up to the minute, like visitors at a Greensburg football game. flire I forget it, please be lenient with your coach for he's a little Green.1 But back to the family album. There in all its glory of crushed plush it lay, awaiting admiring inspection. And to be asked to autograph therein, was considered a mark of honor for the visitor. It contained dainty pink and green leaves of heavy paper. Past-hell shades, I think they call them now. Pretty posies were printed thereon, or clasped hands with lov- ing messages, lithographed and embossed, were pasted on the leaves. You may wonder what all this has to do with an alumnus' greeting. Well, l'm coming to it. Among others, I saw this one, written by a famous author: You ask me for something original, l scarcely know how to begin, For there is nothing original in me Except the original sin. And that is the way I felt when your Mr. Rhodehamel asked me to think of something funny. I promised that l would try but the only funny thing l could think of at the time was his name and my necktie. Well then as the fairy stories start: Once upon a time, oh ever so long agog longer ago than the girl members care to remember, there was a class known as the Class of '94. To save the faces of the girls I'll lie and say l was the oldest member of the class, though, truth to tell, I was the baby, in more ways than one. You can figure out the girls' ages after the manner of the saphead who wished to remember a young lacly's birthday and send her a rose for each year, and solilo- quized as follows :- Let me see, how old is Miss Gladys? Oh, SPECTATOR 17 yes, I remember now. When I was ten she was five, so l'm just twice as old. l'm thirty now, so she must be l5. There were twelve of us, and our class song, sung to the tune of the Italian folk-song, Funiculi, Funiculaf' went thus- ly:- Ten girls are we, sang lustily by them, and Emlyn Jones and I, trailing along meekly and weakly:-- Two boys there be. Oh, there was class to us, even if the class was small. Ambassador Harvey recently said that women had no soul. Well, they took the three sole prizes for scholarship in our class. All the honor men in our class were women, thus an- ticipating the equality of the sexes, if not the superiority of the deadly female. First prize went to one of the Caddys, whether to Ella or Lillie, I disremernber--you could never tell them apart, unless they were together. Yes, sirree, the ten girls took all the honors, leaving the two lonely boys without any honor. This ruined them for life, not having any honor, and they just drifted down, down until they became doctors, yearly taking their millions out of the purses of the poor, like any other conscienceless profiteer. Like saloon keepers they take a m,an's last cent for red licker-r-r-r-r fthe errs is for those who err in thinking that it is liquorj, only the doctor takes his last cent for a prescription. That was the old '94, which cluttered up the High Schools one room, in the old Point School, later moving to and graduating from, the Somerset Street Building. On the grounds of the latter, Dr. Emlyn Jones and I planted a tree each, one autumn Arbor Day. They are still standing there, not knowing where else to go, even if they are all dressed up in the summer. The one that I planted is a runt just like my- self, and somewhat crooked-l mean the tree, of course. We had two principals during those two years. One was a prince pal, but the other principal, I am afraid, didn't draw much interest. We first had Howard B. Johnson and the other, Harry P. Johnson, who later became a minister. How the pranks of that class ever left any religion in a man is a mystery to me to this day. I recall Harry Geer, who dicln't finish with us, but who nearly caused our finish, who threw Sap Sago cheese down the hot-air registers and the place smelled like a pig sty. Prof. johnson tried to catch the culprit, but as we were loyal and didn't snitch, he failed. He Finally got the entire school to march past him on the way out to recess and 18 SPECTATOR put the question to every one: Did you do this, Mr. for Miss, So-and-So? We all answered No , until it came to Harry Geer. He knew that the professor was very hard of hearing. So he answered plainly Yes sir , but at the same time nodded his head in the negative. But he was finally apprehended and sent home. Finally his parents got him reinstated and he had to appear before the the Superintendent, Mr. T. B. Johnson, a brother of the principal. For penance he was told to go to Miss Horrocks, before the entire school and apologize, which he did as follows: Miss Horrocks, the Superintendent desires me to tell you that I am sorry. She tried her best to be dig- nified, but gave it up and said: You may resume your seat, Mr. Geer, and l trust the offense will not be repeated. It was an offense, especially to the nostrils. Harry AGeer was the life, and nearly the death of that school. They were building the lnclined Plane at the time, and Cambria Steel Co. had built a temporary bridge at the Point and ran a track to the plane, for carrying supplies. The H. S. pupils during recess were not confined to the yard: all that was asked, was that they return to their studies at the ringing of the bell. One day Harry locked me in a box--car partly filled with cement, and putting a piece of metal in an old tin can, he simulated the ringing of a bell. To my fright-- ened and conscientious mind, it sounded like the real thing, and I cried piteously to be released. The following day he and a girl were treated by others to the same dose. Did Harry yell? He did not. When we grew tired of the sport the doors were opened and he was sitting comfortably on a sack of cement, hugging the girl. But I better stop here, lest my tales out of, or after, school set a bad example for the present fdei generation. 4 Our class at the finish consisted of the following: Nellie Arthur flVlrs. Rev.

D. ln concluding, l'm going to appeal to the present, past and future classes not to forget the Students' Loan Fund. l'm afraid that l am like the ardent Single Taxer who was at- tending an Amish funeral, where friends, when the spirit moves them, speak of the deceased. He waited for some time for someone to speak, and finally said: lf no one has anything to say about the departed, l'd like to make a few remarks about the Single Tax. This subject is getting to be an obsession with me. It is your fund, not mine or ours of the committee. We are not able to help all that we would like, but this fund will grow like a snow-ball, adding more and more to itself. There is no loss of money and no expense, the fund, a rotating one, being put to use as fast as it is paid back. And as the borrowers are insured in the Fund's favor, or other security is demanded, there can be no loss. There seem to be some misapprehensions concerning this fund. Pros- pective borrowers come and offer to pay interest. Those who must borrow, but can pay interest, should not apply to us for loans. It is intended only for those who have no other way of getting funds for an education, such as orphans, half- orphansg those whose parents cannot or will not aid their chil- dren, and similar persons. Until the fund grows larger, we prefer to aid Normal School pupils rather than college students, those intending to become teachers, rather than professional persons that we intend to aid, as the latter tie up our funds for too long a period of time. We can with the same amount of money, aid three persons to become teachers, where we could aid one physician or dentist. The college courses last four to five years, and it takes several years longer ere they earn sufficient to begin repaying their loans, whereas teachers procure employment almost at once. l want you all to give to this fund, 'that is, those that are able. If you cannot aid it directly, perhaps you can bring it to the attention of those that could. l daresay there are many who would give much or little to the fund, if its merits and purposes were better understood. My talk before the Ro- tarians, was a revelation to many, who were practically una- ware of its existence. It was the direct means ofgetting the Lee donation and the courtesy of a benefit through the kind- ness of Messrs. Scherer and Kelly. And right here I wish to Y, ,fn .m . zo sPEcrA'roR beartribute to the donation of the late Enstell Lee. When his father called me up about it, my eyes filled with tears, and when I called up our treasurer, Miss Helene Reinemann, I was so filled-up, that l couldn't talk coherently. This youth was saving for his own education and told his parents that if it was not to be used for his own education, it was to be given to the Fund to help some worthy pupil. The committee regret having to accept any money under such tragic circum- stances, yet we feel that it may be an inspiration to all of us. Why not help to give us an endowment fund? And as the thoughtfulness of a twelve-year-old boy was the beginning, what more worthy monument to his memory could there be, than to call it The Enstell Lee Fund of the General Students' Loan Fund, or some such similar name? This is indeed a great purpose to aid those who cannot aid themselves to secure an education. We who have received our education in the High School should foster it in others, and not stop merely at the,High School, for we cannot know too much. We may know too many things that are not so or are not worth While. But real education should cease only at death. Therefore stip- ulate that your school savings funds shall go to the Students' Loan Fund in case you do not need them for yourselves or your family. Pardon this long diatribe, and as the radio broad- casters say: I wish you a pleasant good night. Our Struggle for Existence John H. cover, '1 1. Perhaps l am violating the hospitality of the editors in choosing this subject. I have been asked to write upon a theme bordering diplomatic experiences abroad. To comply l should deal with pageantry, with intrigue, with stupid varia- tions of the Main Street mind dabbling vaingloriously in human fateg or I should relate thrilling episodes of individual performers in the world chaos, or the morose tale of the mass plodders. L But the front page of every newspaper bears daily fresh accounts of exploit and suffering. The Turks have dipped again into hurnanblood. Italy has turned nationalist over- night with the slogan Italy first. Clemenceau has stepped upon American soil with the message, Perhaps France will SPECTATOR p21 fight. And our own administration has withdrawn as though to a distant star to watch the world revolve through the power of its own dissolution. How can one find satisfaction in reminiscence? Back of this aimless struggle of ambition and prejudice there are definite problems to be solved. They require the serious attention at the frank conference table of the world's best minds-the sachems , not the fire-eating chiefs . They are basic. They deal not with the machinery of the political game, but with the sources of human energy. They may be summarized under four main headings: the problems of Raw Material, of Commercial Freedom, of Population and of Fiscal and Financial Recup eration. l. The problem of raw material. With the expansion of world commerce, the growth of population and the develop- ment of industry, new kinds and sources of raw products are needed and new regions must be brought under cultivation. But we are fast reaching the evident extension of available land and old sources are being exhausted. We can fairly definitely expect the exhaustion of our coal supply within a few generations. Oil may be lost even sooner. Iron and other ores are rapidly diminishing. Much of our meat supply is nearing extinction. ln common with European nations we obtain much wheat and wool and other raw products from far away Argentina and Australia. i ' The interdependence of the nations for raw material is then quite evident and it follows that cooperation is necessary to conserve the fast dwindlnig supply. This requires the de- velopment of an economic pool under common control from which each nation shal be allowed a portion. It automati- cally dispenses with the idea and practice of special conces- sions. 2. Commercial Freedom. This problem pits free trade against the national tariff. It requires that each localityf pro- duce according to its natural environment and special talent, without the artificial restriction or stimulus of national com- mercial barriers. The common needs of humankind require the agency of cooperation, not more competition. If the finest steel can be produced in Sweden, the best silk in France, superior dyes in Germany and the best shoes in the United States, it is to the advantage of the world to recognize the 22 SPECTATOR fact and welcome it as a means of obtaining efficiency through specialization. i X .Recognition of the status just mentioned includes the dis- pelling of the fallacy of destroying the rival. Examples of failure to take this corollary into account are nmerous. Eng- land confiscated the German fleet and her own ship-yards were affectedg France requisitioned German coal and her own mines suffered. ln addition it must be recognized that de- stroying a commercial rival in the cotton market will reduce the ability of that rival to purchase our leather goods. As applied to territories and colonies it means equality, not the relation of superior and inferior. 3. Population. This is perhaps the most difficult of all the world dilemnas. Some years ago Malthus pointed out the constant struggle between the growth of population and the increase in the food supply to meet human needs. He showed that the tendency was for the human factor to increase far more rapidly than the food. So far we have staved off the crisis of world starvation negatively by reducing the growth of population through recurring wars and epidemics, and posi- tively by the application of scientific means to production of food. Perhaps this fltful combination will continue to safe- guard the survivors. It would seem to raise the question, in case war and disease are increasingly conquered, whether we should have not alone the cooperative application of science to the production of food, but also the scientific application of birth control at least to the alarmingly large group of feeble minded. The portion ofthis problem which raises the most bitter animosity of the white race is the intermingling at least so- cially of the various races. It involves not only the present right of protection of a national migrating to another country, but also the more serious social questions of standards of living and intermarriage. The solution is far in the future and 'by nature evolutionary. 4. Fiscal and financial recuperation. Finally we may include under this general heading the need of a sound code of international control of foreign investments in place of the present scheme of national aggression to collect debts. And as fundamental is the need of an international banking system cutting through the restrictions and inefficiencies of the indi- vidualist procedure of the present. SPECTATOR 23 This treatment is at best an incomplete outline. lt is far less simple as a puzzle than a summary would suggest. If there is to be an international economic conference, it can- not avoid these questions and be effective. Such a conference is the immediate world need, but there had better be none if it is to deal as unscientifically, as miserably, with world problems as did the Versailles exchange. Social evolution may be speeded by conscious effort of the scientific variety, but it will be impeded by jealous bungling. To The Night Mary M. McKee-, '!4. Night! O, Night, Begone!

' Probably one of the most discouraging and appalling factors in the life of a young and conscientious seeker after Truth is the confusing array of theories and dogmas put forth unequivocally by the half-baked theorists and shuttle-cock enthusiasts. At no time is this distress more manifest than when a student enters a university, especially if that university prides itself upon being called democratic. Only a soul of rare naivete could endure such a Babe! of ideas without rebellious outcry. The reflective and imagi- native mind must give birth to many doubts and fears. The 24 SPECTATOR almost awful sense of engulfmg hopelessness which comes over such a person was keenly appreciated by me when I returned to my university after the War. During those two hectic years amidst that seething mass of humanity which made up the armies of the Great War, I was strangely affected by the many conflicting wants, desires, actions, and instincts of the men about me. They moved me with an intense longing and a desire probably not unlike that which prompted the early Greeks in their primitive gropings to explain the Universe. ' At length, freed from the bonds of military rule, and restored to a nearly normal level of life againg I decided to return to the University and there seek a solution to the prob- lem in my mind: and at the same time to acquire, if possible, an understanding of what we term humanity. Gladly I awaited the opening of the academic year. The roster I adopted was made up of a number ot sub- jects, all of which, I thought, would lead in one general direc- tiong namely an understanding of the problems of life. The course I selected was one in English Literature. This I Wrote down with a great deal of pleasure, because I am a fond reader and to me a good book is a mirror which reflects humanity. Next I chose a course in Biology. Through it I sought to grasp the biological laws which underlie all society. To supplement my biological research, I added a course in Sociology, which the catalogue proclaimed to be a study of human institutions, associations, and customs. But I was conhdent that man is something more than a mere biological mechanism which bows and nods as some traditional custom pulls the string. So I sought further knowledge in a course in Psychology. My advisor told me that this subject would explain why everyone acts as he does under certain circum- stances. This was exactly what I wanted to know. Since l still had two perfectly good hours to use in the eager search for knowledge, I selected a course in History, thinking it would separate all the good ideas, theories, and experiments, from the bad, and thus furnish a criterion for my judgments. For to me, History, means not a list of great names and obscure dates, but, in its connected form, it is the voice of God crying clown the ages the laws of right and wrong. When I had thus completed my roster, I went to my room to sleep. I felt highly elated at my good fortune. With m SPECTATOR 25 eagerness l awaited the new fields which were about to open before me, and unravel the mysteries which so long had held me impotent in their unyielding grasp. On the morrow, l was to be taught the solution to the grave problems which I had been turning over and over in my mind: problems such as why it is that a man will travel more than three thousand miles from home and friends, endure the most bitter hardships, Fight like a wild beast with another creature Which, at least, bears the shape of a man, and then, when that creature grins and gurgles Kamerad, will march him to a place of safety behind the lines and give him better food and bed than he himself enjoyed. With this purpose in mind l started to my classes at half- past eight o'clock the next morning. The first one was Eng- lish Literature. The instructor, a brilliant and interesting man, was talking about Robert Louis Stevenson. He drew a com- parison between Stevenson and Sir Walter Scott and decided that the 'difference between the writings of these two men was immediately referable to their early training. Stevenson, being brought up by a governess, gave us as his first product a rather effeminate book. Scott, on the other hand, under a more virile tutelage gave us Marmion as his maiden work. Hence, concluded our lecturer: We are what our nurseries make us. - I put this down in my notes under the caption: Solution No. l. On the margin I wrote: This is hopeful, indeed. With the right sort of nurseries we can mould the next generation as we will. Here lies our means of enforcing Prohibition and establishing a League of Nations. This pleased me so much that I was on the point of going up to the instructor to shake his hand and tell him that he had solved a problem which had been worrying me very much. But something, l suppose it was Poe's lmp of the Per- verse, caused me to hesitate a few moments. By that time the crowd of tardy students had so thronged the space about the platform that I was unable to reach the lecturer. Hopeful and enthusiastic, 1 went to my Biology class. Here after a long preamble of scientific terms and a body of unintelligible doggerel I was presented with the conclusive argument that in our entire makeup the dominant tone is heredity. It matters not what our opportunities and obstacles areg success or failure depends upon our hereditary endow- 26 SPECTATOR ment. This was a sort of hopeless fatalism which broke down all my pleasant idealism of the previous hour and led my thoughts into a reflective channel. It makes no difference how we train the new German population. 'Its heritageiis blood and iron. All barriers and indemnities which we put in its path will be overcome and in a brief cycle we must repeat again this frightful orgy. The Red will be a Red whether we leave him in Milwaukee or deport him to Soviet Russia. Only death can remoxe his baleful influence on the life of society. The child of Austria, of Russia, and of Italy will be an anarchist, and a follower of the dagger and stiletto, whether we educate it in our public schools or leave it to gain its education from the experience of the slums. Bergdoll will be a pro-German whether we keep him checking laundry at the work-house, or leave him in his magnificent home. The church, the school, the reform institutions, and charitable organizations are but the ear-rings and lingerie of our society. A With such a hopeless philosophy as this I would have withdrawn my course card, then and there, had it not been that I must hasten over to the Wharton School to meet my Soc- iology class. Here the argument was somewhat as follows: Instincts are abilities which enable us to act in an adaptive manner. Those which are useful in our environment are further developed, while those which are not useful are suffered to be lost. Hence our whole being as we exist today is the product of our environment. My spirits rose again. Environment is in a large measure under the control of man and by changing environment we can produce a better race of men. This was at least hopeful, but alas! what was I to accept as Truth? It was now noon. In order to collect my strangely scat- tered thoughts, I went to the Library. There, in prowling among the books, I came across a copy of Who's Who. As my next class was Psychology, I decided to look up the name of the Professor. I found an entire page devoted to him. Good, thought I, his word will be final. Eagerly, I went to his class. I-Ie opened his lecture by saying, Biology will tell you this, Sociology, thatg Physics, this, and Chemistry that. But you must come to Psychology for your real explanation. I leaned forward in my chair, scarcely able to wait until SPECTATOR 27 l should hear what that explanation might be. Finally he gave it in somewhat the following manner: All our sensations are made up of two elementsg first, that which we get through some sensory avenue which we possess on the basis of our phylogenetic origing secondly, that which we gain from our apperceptional contribution which we, in turn, receive on the basis of our ontogenetic develop- ment. He then concluded by a bold statement that all the big issues in life are decided on the strength of our apperceptional contribution which is immediately moulded by our education. Fine, thought I, here is another ray of hope through a black cloud of doubt. By good schools and compulsory ,edu- cation we can make of our civilization a model one. Our only question, then, is to decide what sort of humanity we want and organize our schools to conform with it. But as 'l followed thistline of thought it occurred to me that I had better ask the Professor what he meant by educa- tion. He said, Education, my boy, is what you get at the university. Then I continued, What sort of education will such a roster, as I am following, give one? A general edu- cation, was his reply. Now, to me, the word general has two denotations. One is that which we apply to him who leads an armyg the other is that which we associate with terms such as nuisance, debility, and the like. Thoroughly convinced from my previous ex- perien.ce, that I did not want to be a general in the army, the only course open then was that of general nuisance. But knowledge that most persons of that type eventually land in Blockley or some such place, made me feel like consulting a time-table for a homeward-bound train. But again the Imp of the Perverse held me. Or maybe it was a sporting determination to see the thing through which made me climb the three flights of stairs to the History class- room. Remember this was to be the course which should fur- nish me my judicial criterion. The first lecture was on the broad subject of the eco- nomic background of the recent war. I cannot recall much of what was said. The only notes l took, ran somewhat as follows: All the actions of men and nations are the result of certain economic forces which man is powerless to change and would not if he could. l 28 S P E C T A T 0 R I heard no more of the lecture but became totally en- grossed in my own thoughts. There is, then a Divine Scaf- fold that Hsways the future. The past was just as it had to be. Any attempt to fix responsibility for the war is folly. The commission which would try the Kaiser is an idiotic farce. The glory of Belgium is but the inevitable outgrowth of 'a sordid and prosaic materialism. Wilson did not keep America out of the war any more than astute politicians and intriguing manufacturers eventually dragged her in. All these events which we would penalize or immortalize are nothing more than preordained mechanical responses to a relentless economic pressure. W ,I confess that this was a sort of un-human standard by which to measure men. I had grown to love mankind. My faith and confidence in humanity had waxed continually stronger and stronger. In the masses of struggling, praying, swearing, fighting, and God-fearing men I had beheld beings capable of thought, emotion, and of love. To me they repre- sented the struggle for the idealg and the hope of better achievement. Now to have them pictured as mere puppets jerked by unseen strings was disheartening indeed. Sobered, sad and almost disgusted, I again sought by room, I collected my fragmentary notes and rewrote .them in my scrap-book. What a conglomeration they made! Nursery Days, Hereditary Endowment, Environment, Education, and baleful, grinning Economic Pressure, each claimed the sovereignty of our life as its own possession. As I looked at them an.d tried to reconcile their discordant notes into some sort of an intelligible symphony, there came into my mind an old familiar story which my father used to tell. A young man started out to learn what was the finest thing in life. He questioned all with Whom he came in con- tact. The youth said, Fun, the girl, Beauty , the doctor, Health , the minister, Religion g the banker, lVloney g the philosopher, Wisdom. But the fool cackled a hollow, mirthless laugh and said, I do not know. I turned again to my notes. At the bottom of the page I wrote: Count me the fool. I do not know. SPECTATOR 29 Superstitions of the Labrador Mary Boyd Greer, 'l7. From the lakes of Kilarney, the moors of Scotland, and the forests of Robin Hood, hundreds of years ago, came the tales of witches and goblins and tokens to Labrador. Today they linger there and the people are as lothe to give them up as they are their tea and 'lassesf' Labrador is a land of en- chantment, with its grotesque and awful icebergs, its luring fjords, its moss-covered, heaven-kissing cliffs. Small wonder that these people remote from the arts and sciences cling to their old folk lore. A great moon shining gloriously bright from a heaven of blackest black, an angry sea booming on a rocky coast, do not these nourish superstition? Nature is the only teacher there, and she cannot explain the swiftness of a mainmast in becoming a floating spar, or the halyard's drifting rope. Nor can she explain the long nights of winter, the moan- ing of the wind, the howling of the dogs, or the silence of the waters held fast by ice, under which the cod, far, far down seek warmer depths and protection from the sharks. Many were the tales I was told in the evening as we sat about the fire, the men smoking silently, thoughtfully, the women hooking their nets quietly, or making the sealskin boots with dextrous fingers. They were tales of fairies, phantom ships, and of invisible figures who called for help across the waters. Once or twice l would smile at their belief in them, only to evoke from Mr. Coombs, Ah, Miss Mary, ye must not laugh. It is a serious thing. Sure l've heard men bawling out for help and when we steered for them we found nothing, only the fog and damp. l It was 'idown to Darby's Tickle that this happened. Some fishermen had made their boat fast and had gone ashore to cook their evening meal. They landed on an old island where years before the French had come to catch the lobster, can them, according to their secret process, and then sail back to France in their old square rigger boats. The fishermen be- gan to laugh and joke about the Frenchmen and to scoff at the old square riggers. Suddenly there was a rush of many feet. A band of Frechmen dashed down the shore, plunged aboard the boat, stamped on the deck furiously with their sabots, brandished long, keen knives and howling jumped 30 SPECTATOR into the water. The men, terror stricken, ran to their boat, to sail away as quickly as possibly. The captain had to cut the ropes which anchored the boat, for every man refused to untie them. Ah, Miss Mary, that's true, chimed in old Mrs. Coombs from her corner. And does ye not know that a week before ye came to us, l left the babe in the house in its cradle and did not put a bit of loaf fbreadl on the top for the fairies and when I came back, babe and all was outside? A few miles from where I lived was an old grave, reputed to be that of a Frenchman, buried with treasure a hundred years before. I was eager to explore it. Mr. Coombs begged me with tears in his eyes, not to touch it, for, No one can touch a stone of he, without bloodshed, Miss Mary. Aye, and the token fghostl will haunt ye always! But one night l per- suaded George, the youngest son, to help me and we started. l was bent on historic proof, a coin, a knife, a sabot, what joy! We dug and dug, George jumping as every stone fell, my ardor lessening, for my shovel had once been a stoker'sl We found dust and a few bones, and we hurriedly re-covered them. We ran all the way home, George terrified, I trembling with, let us say excitement! Strange that we never mentioned our escapade! Not long after this, Mrs. Coombs said to me, Miss Mary, will ye not wear this bit of rag?' ' ' Why? I asked, looking at the piece of bright red flan- nel offered me. To ward off the evil eye, Miss Mary. Sure I am never without he, and she showed me her bit of red flannel, hung around her neck. - But the enchantmentof enchantments of the Labrador are the Northern Lights. They shimmer and scintillate across the sky in wonderful colors of red, orange, green argent and gold. Dancing they play across the heavens in a myriad of grotesque shapes and forms. One thinks that he is permitted in the playroom of the gods where only color distinguishes. The people believe that if whistled to, the lights will come down to earth, so invariably one hears the Labrador fisherman, whistling softly, and indeed the lights do seem to come a little nearer! The people call them the Merry Dancers and think they are the souls of the departed at play. s P E c 'r A T o R 31 An Old Grads Bit Eliot E. Overdorf, 'l7. - An old grad feels proud if he can contribute his little bit. As l have lately lain on my back I have had time to seriously reflect back to the days before and after I9I 7. l find it very embarrassing to ponder over the things undone. But when l reflect back to the glorious days spent in the old High School there comes a thrill all its own. l venture to say that many grads have taken many a look back to the days when life was so fresh and full of dreams. Often a late evening brings weariness from continuous study. The books are pushed aside, the eye shade is removed and I slink low in the old arm chair. l wish that we could live the old days over, just once more. I wish that we could hit the trail together, just once more. Say, Pal, the years are slipping by, With many a dream and many a sigh- l..et's chum together, you and l, just once more. . There is so much in store , so much in the future for the new American scholar. The surging tides in which we find ourselves give us ample proof that no time is more pro- pitious for leaders. And no time is more demanding of trained leadership. Many of us 'build our ladders, step by step, only to let us slide down to the ground because we have not built securely. The young American scholar today, with a vision and a clear purpose in life, can climb mountains and ranges of mountains. Nothing is more inspiring to me in the life of Theodore Roosevelt than the story he told his bosom friend. It is a story of victory crowned, the story of a life's purpose fulfilled. Clearly and faithfully and man- fully, Roosevelt strove towards his goal in life. He had to overcome many obstacles, he had to climb many mountains. When Roosevelt heard the call from the great beyond a great thought filled his mind. He labored but not in vain. To his friend he said, Last night l dreamt that I was standing before Mt. Everest. This morning I awoke and found that it was gone. Roosevelt reached his goal, he climbed his mountain. 32 SPECTATOR One thought or idea has made a lasting impression upon me. It has been my observation that very seldom does a student advance much beyond the success he attained while he was in school or college. Seldom does a man become bigger than the man in the boy in school. Fortune often makes exceptions. But I believe with Francis Bacon that the mould of a man's fortune is in his own hands. The student who remains passive to his own powers seldom awakes to his possibilities in life until it is too late. The seeds are early implanted in our minds when we are very impression- istic and the quicker We respond to the bigger motives and purposes in life the larger will be our tree of knowledge. Every student should strive to do a bigger and harder task than he has ever done before. In every endeavor there are hundreds to sus- tain you, there are thousands to spur you on to victory. Ifvl could but convey this word of encouragement, clearly and intelligently, l could find the evening full of rest. There are so many perils that beset the work of a student. There is the peril of negation, the peril of segregation, the peril of approximation and many others. But every student must be his own guardian when it comes to a personal equation. John Fiske was impelled to write that a philosopher had given him a true criterion of a great life. The philosopher said a great life was 'ia thought conceived in youth and realized in later years. Vassar College in Retrospect Marjorie E. CStiffJ Raab, ' I 7M Yes, l want to go to Vassar because I am interested in athletics. This statement, spoken by a preparatory school girl made evident to me what a lack of appreciation of college life is prevalent among many young people. Of course, girls interested in sports have plenty of oppor- tunity to enjoy them there, but that is only one phase of under- graduate life. First of all, one must have high enough grades, over about 75 per cent, in order to participate in the games. Then there is so much competition for positions and also so many other activities to enjoy that one can get her letters only 1 SPECTATOR 33 if she is very persistent and very ugoodf' When such is not the case, there are gym work fsome of which is compulsoryl, second squads, and The Thirteenth Squad, made up of girls who enjoy field hockey, basket ball, and base ball, but are not eligible for the regular teams. ln-the Spring, track plays an important role on Vassar campus, and some splendid work is done along that line. ln spite of all this, however, the chief thing at Vassar College is class work. Through it one learns the things, both academic and otherwise, that will be carried into later life. Let it not be judged from this that the days are one round of dull school work. On the contrary, no two days are alike. Most Freshmen are surprised to find how much life can be in a classroom. Most of the students go to class with some knowledge gleaned through preparation alone or with cronies, of what is to be discussed. The faculty are extremely well- read, keen and vivacious. Every moment is full. Frequently the discussions are so lively that the Freshman accustomed to napping in school finds herself exhausted by noon! B'ut after the first few weeks, she becomes adjusted to the new life and, learning to arrange her study hours, finds time left for the traditional pleasures, hikes into the beautiful surrounding country, class-singing, and parties with which the upper-class- men always shower new students. ' Stunt parties are a favorite at Vassari The hostesses give funny little stunts, frequently parodies of local events. The parties are always informal andgenerally masquerades. When there is time after the stunts, the men seek partners for dancing. Every year some group forms an orchestra which knows all the upeppyn new jazz, and does not hestitate to make the walls of Students Building or of a dormitory cor- ridor ring with its rhythm. ' ln direct contrast to this, there are occasional concerts, given by the leading musicians of the world. Vassar College, in being only two hours from New York, has an opportunity of hearing many artists who seldom travel far from the me- tropolis. Noted lecturiers and many of the new poets also speak there. The evenings spent at concerts and lectures are among the most delightful ones that the students have. The entertainers always seem to offer just what their audience wants and they are always warmly received. That the per- formances may be so well adapted to all the listeners is prob- 34 SPECTATOR ably due tothe fact that the student body, together with the faculty, are so closely knit and so sincerely interested in a common aim. At any rate, it seems as if there were no other place where so many people, more than l,200, have so many mu- tual interests and ideals. When one breaks .with college, the severing of old ties is very unpleasant. Nowhere have young women of college material a better opportunity to make deep friendships with a large number of congenial people. The realization of this b'ond is not often experienced during Freshman year. Sometimes one does not feel it until the end. The good fellowship and lack of snobbery fso apparent out in the world , are, however, noticeable at once, even if one is only a week-end guest at Vassar. But the college har- bors so many, many types of individuals and the right of free- dom of discussion is so strongly exercised that a new student sometimes fails to recognize that she is an intimate part of one whole. This meeting and mingling with students of so many nationalities and so many various classes of society becomes in time one of the things that the Vassar College under-graduate cherishes as most precious. Because of it, she becomes more at ease with others and finds it easier to sympathize with an- other's point of view. At the same time, she is learning the meanin.g and value of co-operation in various sorts of activities and the fun of doing things with people who are congenial and also different from herself. Now and Then Mary C. l..ape, '20. When you are out, as we are now, Oh, you in High School halls! Perhaps you'll understand just how, An old grad loves those walls. A good adage for school life might be, Forget not your High School, if you wish your High School not to forget you. For the big part of the remembering depends upon us, Alumnae. The most essential duty of an alumna is to keep in touch with the active student-body. ln reality we are not two sepa- SPECTATOR 35 rate organizations but are two parts of the same body. The alumnae are but students grown older. Our experience is a little larger and we wish the present students to profit by it and save themselves from some of the blunders we have made. To-morrow the active student-body are going to be alumnae. By keeping the fires of school spirit burning brightly about us, these youths are going to be anxious to become members of our vast following and will not feel when their Commence- ment comes that it's all over now. First, let's keep in touch with our High School by closely following her progress. Read up the games, subscribe to her publication, support the lecture courses and attend her plays. The present pupils may not know us personally but they'll have a warm feeling for the alumna who has not for- gotten the little red schoolhouse by reason of her superior college training or years of graduate experience. Secondly, why not visit the High School? Revive your former good times, know the present student-body, see what they have done that is different from our old school days. There are always changes in the buildings, furnishings and customs. When should we return? Holiday season is ideal, but any chapel day in the school calendar is great. After that visit we will know all the things the students are doing, the big accomplishments they've made, and the bigger ones they have planned ahead, aside from renewing some old acquaintances among our faculty friends. Every school needs the help of its alumnae. It cannot thrive or work successfully without it. l..et's give thought, time, interest and material aid at all times to our glorious Johnstown High School. We will be well repaid! A Northernefs lmpressions of Florida Helen lVl. Vogel, '20. ' There are many amusing suppositions concerning life in Florida among people of the North. One popular supposition is that alligators and crocodiles are so numerous here that they crawl lazily down the principal streets of our cities. Indeed, a girl from New York State, who recently arrived in DeLand to spend the winter, actually confessed to disappoint- ment, because she had not yet seen an alligator. Probably she 36 SPECTATOR was expecting a reception committee of hideous Florida rep- tiles to meet her at the station on her arrival. Of course she was disappointed. The only alligators she will see in Florida are the few' rare specimens kept by private individuals as curiosities-for tourists. Another popular conception of the Sunshine State is of a land very hot, eternally hot, intolerably hot. The tempera- ture does occasionally reach one hundred degrees during the summer months, but yet it does not compel us to live in our bathing suits on a cake of ice near an electric fan. We live as normally as in the winter months, which are delightful. Beach picnics and dances are enjoyed during the summer to an even greater degree than in the winter. It is customary to speak of Florida in terms of the super- lative. The climate is very wonderful, the oranges are very delicious, the scenery is very attractive, and the sunsets are very beautiful. And without exaggeration. There is an in- defmable something in the atmosphere of Florida that grips one's heart and makes one feel that it is God's own country, the next best place to Paradise. I say this without irreverence. As the Florida negroes express it: Yes, suhl Anybody who done gets some ob dis heah Flo'dy sand in der shoes shu'ah will come back heah right sma't. Lawsy, yes! The most prominent feature-and the most-widely ad- vertised-of this land of sunshine and flowers is its climate. Since it is not my purpose to advertise the climate-it almost advertises itself-I will say merely that it is ideal. Every day is a sunshine day, with now and then a light shower for the sake of variety. Rainbows are frequent and of vivid colors. The mornings and even.ings are comfortably cool, but the days are warm and languorous. Yet, the climate is sometimes ca- pricious, especially when the icy north wind is blowing Florida- ward. Then palm beach suits and thin summer dresses are discarded for heavier clothing, and fires are built' in the fire- places, and people remark to each other, They must be having zero weather up North! Florida is appropriately named the Pine Tree State. Pines,, pines, everywhere, and what fine specimens they are! Tall, young giants tossing their proud heads high above the more dwarfish cypresses, they are the personification of the independent spirit of youth, the expression of the spirit of the State., As a foreground for the setting sun, they are in- comparable in their shadows. sPEcrA'roR 37 When I first came to Florida, I was thrilled every time I glanced at a palm tree, but I have seen so many now, that the thrills are becoming fewer. Nevertheless, palm trees are thrilling objects' to a Northerner, for they suggest the tropics and the jungles of Africa. If you desire to experience a tropical thrill, however, don't go to Africag come to Florida, where the palm, trees are and the lions and elephants are not. Who has not climbed an apple tree and eaten one big, big, ripe juicy apple after another till he was satiated? ln Florida, alas! one cannot conveniently climb an orange or a tangerine tree, but the fruit is just as delicious picked from the tree and consumed in generous quantities. Oranges are as common and inexpensive in Florida as apples in Pennsyl- vania. And every citizen of the state has a miniature orange grove in his own back yardg the large groves also are owned and controlled by individuals. Therefore, there is no monopoly on oranges. During the orange season, they sell here at the exorbitant prices of five or ten cents a dozen. The people of Florida are interesting because they are so cosmopolitan. Nearly every state in the Union is repre- sented in our Florida population. Pennsylvania is particularly well represented, and New York and Massachusetts are not far behind. Tourists even come from far-away California and England and Canada to spend their winters here. Then, too, there are ,the native Floridians nicknamed Florida Crackers who are Southern in character and traditions. Southern hospitality is not a myth or the invention of Southern novelists, it is a positive fact. These Southern peo- ple from many states who are now residing in Florida are the dearest, finest, most generous, and most hospitable people whom one could find anywhere. They are hospitable alike to rich and poor, millionaire and pauper. Their hospitality recognizes no limits or barriersg it is neither officious or extrav- agant, but simplicity itself. Another lovable trait is their neighborliness. A new neighbor is visited and made to feel welcome and at home the very day he moves into their neigh- borhood. They are neither unduly curious nor unendurably meddlesome in regard to their new neighbor's affairs, but sympathetical-ly interested. No affectation of superiority, no indifference. Of course Southerners, being human, are far from perfect. They are happy-go-luckyg they are complacentg they are slower and less thrifty and energetic than the people i , sa SPHCTATOR of the North. Their environment makes them so. They are constituted to enjoy life in the best sense, and to assist others to do likewise. ' Florida cities are rich in historical backgrounds. The romance of old Spain still clings to St. Augustine and New Smyrna on the East Coast. St. Augustine is famous for its old Spanish fortress prison frenamed Fort Marion by the Englishl, which contains dungeons, and inquisitions and tor- ture chambers enough to satisfy even an Edgar Allan Poe. New Smyrna, colonized by Spaniards and Italians and Greeks, under Dr. Andrew Turnbull, a Scotchman, early in the eigh- teenth century, still contains the ruins of an old Spanish sugar mill and the foundations of a Spanish mission, constructed of coquina rock. Near Port Orange, a small town near De- Land, stands the well-preserved ruin ofa huge Spanish sugar mill. According to tradition, it was built by the early Spanish colonists in Florida about l600, the machinery being brought from Spain and the work done by Indian slaves. The rollers are in a remarkable state of preservation in spite of constant exposure to weather conditions of three centuries. No rust spots can be discovered. The history of other early Florida towns is interesting. Jacksonville's first name was Macca Pilatka, but it was re- christened Cow Ford by the English. It received its perma- nent name in i822 in honor of General Andrew jackson. Jacksonville is one of the chief cities of the South. Palatka was founded in l82l by an indian trader. Tallahassee, the capital of the State, was incorporated in 1825. Tallahassee was the name 'of a Seminole chief. The Seminole Indians, who now reside on a reservation near the Everglades of Southern Florida, have left evidences of their existence indelibly written upon the geography of Florida. Indian names in Florida are easily recognized. Apalachicola was derived from Apalache. Tallahassee means Sun Town. Miami was originally Mi-am-se. The name of Osseola, the Seminole chief, is perpetuated in the county of that name. The names of nearly all the streams and lakes are unquestionably of Indian origing for example, Lake Kis- simmee. ln some sections of Florida, Indian names are pre- dominant. The subject offers a study filled with romantic in- terest. X SPECTATOR 39 The charm of Florida is well expressed in the famous words of Emerson: If eyes were made for seeing, 0 Then beauty is its own excuse for being. 40 SPECTATOR 1H'rinripe11'n Mags Our Alumni , It would give one great pleasure to look into the faces of all our High School alumni seated in a large hall or audi- torium, or to be seated on some grand stand and see them march by four abreast in review. The thousands of alumni so assembled would constitute a large audience or form a long column in parade. Then we would be reminded, too, of a goodly number of absent ones whose life work is done but whose influence for good is still felt in the community, and whose memories are cherished by loved ones. This great body of men and women are playing or have played their parts well in the community life of Johnstown and other places. One will find them in nearly all the avocations and professions of life-law, medicine, teaching, trades, com- merce, etc. Although time has changed the color of their hair and care has brought looks of responsibility to the faces of many, their hearts are still young and they find pleasure in living again the school days of their youth. They realize that much of their success in life is due to the training they received in our high school. Here perhaps they received their first les- sons in perseverance, hard work, responsibility and that sys- tematic training that made it possible for them to grasp and handle new subjects easily. Sometimes it seemed hard when their teachers would insist on their learning a thing exactly right when they thought if they knew it nearly right was sufficient. But now they know that it was that very exactness that has helped them most to make a succcess in life. It was not the amount of half-learned things that were gathered in a slipshod way that helped them most, but the things that were learned in an orderly way and thoroughly mastered. It took patience, perseverance and hard work to complete this part of their life's work but this made it possible to live their lives more abundantly later on. So, when alumnus meets alumnus, when they grasp each other's hand recalling scenes of other days and telling things SPECTATOR 41 they remember of the teachers they lovecl, let them not forget to be thankful that they were given the exceptional advan- tages afforecl by their high school which has enabled them to get so much real pleasure out of the journey of life. 42 SPECTATOR 'hr liigh Svrhnnl Svprrtatnr JOHNSTOWN, PA., DECEMBER, I922 Sub criptlon Price, 51.50 Per Year Per Copy, 35 Cents Ehitnrial Staff Editor-in-Chief, BRANDON RHODEHAMEL, 'zzm Associate Editor, Jokes EVA NEAFACH, '23 RUSSELL MILES, 'ZZM Literary Editor CHARLES SMITH, 'ZZV2 EDITH RESLEY, 22M School News Exchanges KATHRYN GOCHER, 22M ALICE CLOUGH, 22K-3 Athletics Ruthless Rimes HORACE- BAILEY.

Johnstown High School has taken many strides forward and it stands on the high plane with the leading High Schools of the State of Pennsylvania. We are proud of the number of students who choose to attend the Johnstown High School, and those who elect to further their education in institutions of higher learning. The school spirit shown by these many students should be commended. This spirit has led to the adoption of the Student Government plan, a plan so success- fully adopted by many colleges ,and universities throughout the country. Due to its adoption interest in the school has been increased, athletics have been placed on a higher plane, and greater than these the scholastic standard has been ele- vated. Responsibility is placed directly upon the shoulders of the students and it depends largely upon them what position the Johnstown High School will hold in the future. 44 SPECTATOR The Class of I9I4 is very much interested in your new plan of welcoming the Alumni back to school once each year. The plan is excellent and will do much to cement the cordial feelings between the Alumni and the Student Body. A loyal Alumnus never loses interest in his Alma Mater and such occa- sions tend to make him feel that he is still a part of the insti- tution from which he was graduated. To the members of the Class of I9 I 4, l wish to encourage you as a Class and as individuals to visit the Johnstown High School and familiarize yourselves with the wonderful institu- tion of which you are a part. Let the spirit of the class of l9l4 flame again and reflect in its support of the Johnstown High School. Walter H. Cramer, President of the Class of 1914. l9I6 The Class of Nineteen Sixteen 'iln the valley of the mountains Of our good old Keystone State- My memories take me backward To a time when Joy ruled Fate. Pass onl Pass on l-but my memory makes me wait- Five years! Six years!-I pause-I hesitate. Dreams of my youth come stealing Deep in my heart there's a feeling That there's no joy for me Like the sweet memory Of the Class of Nineteen Sixteen. Years pass-we return again back there The old days have long since gone,-but new days are here: Preparing us for the bigger things Cfor the morrow, let us say, . Those passed were worthwhile done In all seriousness and in fun Stepping stones for our future they did lay. F our years: the best in our lives, mates: Our beginning,--our prelude,-our entrance gate. Ah! you can take it from me SPECTATOR 45 'Tis a fond memory- That Class of Nineteen Sixteen. Arthur Zobel, ' 16. 1917 To the Class of 1917, Greetings: Although we are now scattered to the four corners, and our work is of many natures, we cannot help occasionally looking back and wishing. Let us then resolve to keep those friendships precious and at some near time have a good old- time 1917 reunion. James T. Taylor. m,m....m---T 1918 To the Members of the Class of 1918: Four years have wrought many changes in the lives of the members of the class of 1918. Like tiny rivers, each has turned their efforts and attentions in many diverse directions. Non-parallel lines always meet and with the true spirit of old J. H. S. and the class of 1918 we greet each other. It is with this spirit of fraternalism that I greet- you in this happy Christ- mas season. Sincerely, William E.. Scanlan, President Class of 1918. 1919 To the Class of 1919: The coming year marks another goal with some of our class in that they will have completed their fourth year at a higher institution of learning. To those who were so privi- leged I wish a successful future. To the rest of us who were not so fortunate to pursue a higher education may l say this: Plug hard! ,For with a few more years of concentration and hard work in your under- takings you will have attained the same success as if you had J 46 SPECTATOR gone to college. After all there aren't any short cuts. The best in us develops with time and a decade from now may find us on an equal footing. . May the spirit that held the class of 'I9 in a bond of common interest never die, and as an assurance of its life l would suggest a reunion to be held in l924. With a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the class of l9l9, their wives, husbands, children, sweethearts, and friends. Wilbur C. Mulhollen, Pres. IQZOM To the Class of I920M: Classmates-l am thinking of you to-day because it is Christmas-and I wish you happiness: l shall be thinking of you to-morrow because it is the day after Christmas-and I shall still be wishing you happinessg and so on through all the year. Two years have almost passed since we left dear old Johnstown High. Some of us have taken up the higher branches of educationg some of us who were not so fortunate have started our life work-so we are so far apart that I cannot tell you of this sentiment every day. That mat- ters not-the thought and wish are there just the same. We are separated by space it is true-but at Christmas time when Peace and Good Will and Happiness are in the hearts of us all we seem to be drawn closer in the thoughts of that Temple of Fellowship-our Alma Mater. Emblazoned high on her Chapel walls and enshrined deep in our hearts is her motto Semper Fidelisf' May yours be a Merry, Boun- tiful Christmas and a Happy, Prosperous New Year. Eddie Dittmar. - .... 1921 The Class of I92I extends greetings to the Spectator and its fellow classes. It is with pleasure that we renew our acquaintance with the Spectator, as it rejuvenates old memo- ries of our pleasant four years in High School, and the many incidents connected with our school life. SPECTATOR 47 Although one of the youngest of graduated classes, we have begun to realize the value of our High School education and the valuable training it affords us for our future. Regard- less of what we may do after High School, we see the many advantages that we enjoy over those who have been less for- tunate than us in receiving this education. As for the many friends and acquaintances made during that four year period, we can prize them as most dear to us, and those that will be longest remembered. Because of the Varied experiences of each of us, it is hard to keep in touch with each other, and with the High School. But we can, if we want to, maintain an interest in the school, and it behooves us all to do so. We can follow the football team, but we cannot get an inside view of the present day school life, so that now and then an occasional visit to the chapel would be time well spent. Fulton I. Connor, President of Class 192 I. fl 921 Mg To the Class of Twenty-one and One-half: Once more that joyous Season of the year, Christmas, is upon us. Once more we- are building the crackling fires and stuffing crevices against the winds of Winter. Once more we hear the whistling Wind Maniac pipe out the greetings of the times to us as he plays around the corners. May he carry to all the members of our beloved class and to our Faculty Advisors, Mrs. Myrtle Roudabush, and Miss Violet Findley, the many wishes for a most Happy and Jolly Yuletide that are extended to them. And may he whistle with increasing volume as he delivers a message of Hope to themg a hope that the New Year will be one of achievements and prosperity, of little care and few sorrows, a hope that their future lives, as graduates of this institution will be worthy of the ideals their instructors have wedged into their hearts and mindsg and last, a hope that God will bless them with all His great gifts to honest, hard working men and women. Wliliam C. Bowers, Class President. , 7, m 48 SPECTATOR I922 To My Fellow Classmates: The Class of i922 at this joyous season sends greetings to our Alma Mater, she, who has fostered and trained us for the higher pursuits of life. Some have gone to the commercial field, while others have decided upon a college career. Most fitting then it is at this time when the entire world resounds with the spirit of gladness that each alumnus should remember our benefactress situated in the mountain valley of Cone- maugh. However, this year has been somewhat different from pre- vious years. It was difficult to accustom ourselves to our new environment, the making of new acquaintances, and the settling down to effective study. Indeed, we had our moments of sadness, but also times of joy. Do we not remember the initiations, the penalties for violating certain rules, and too, the various tricks played upon each other? These remain with us as pleasant recollections of days that have been and which the years cannot efface. The spirit which H. S. instills is the spirit of fraternal comradeship. There is a longing in all of us to go back to you. Though this may be impossible, yet there remains the affectionate bonds. Inspired with this feeling it is our en- deavor to go forward with firm determination, vigor to ac- complish that for which we have been fitted, and bearing in mind that our achievement will but reflect the training we have received from our beloved Alma Mater. My Fellow Classmates, I wish you all the compliments of this joyous season. I remain, Sincerely yours, Francis Scanlan, President '22. SPECTATOR 49 7 hitnrialn l:OI'CWaI'd We bid the former editors and contributing alumni mem- bers a welcome on their return to the columns of the Spec- tator. It was our pleasant task to read the various arti- cles before they went to press and we feel sure that our readers will Hnd a wealth of fun and wisdom in them. Through these may we hope that the student body will be influenced to higher ambitions, keener appreciation and greater love of the school. May they be imbued with this school spirit which is reflected in the response of the alumni. Through all these years we feel that the alumni have cherishedfa love which needs but to be awakened by a call such as: Members of the Alumni, the Spectator needs you to put across a school project, and from every walk of life, from the corners of the world, the scattered cohorts again rally to our Alma Mater. The members of the present Spectator staff wish to ac- knowledge the cordial and courteous response of the Alumni, and to assure them of their sincere appreciation for what they have done. To the readers and to all our friends the Spec- tator, at this season of fraternity and good will, wishes to extend greetings. , B. F. R., '22. An Expression The honor of being permitted to again participate in editing the Spectator leads me to an expression of gratification of the wonderful growth of the magazine. My felicitations are extended to the successive editorial staffs who have so ear- nestly labored for this accomplishment, chronicling the activi- ties of the High Scthool, its student and faculty. We, the Alumni, share in its success. lts pages tell of our doings. We glory in every victory recorded there. The cohesive thought of our school's interests are summarized for the perusal of our- selves, the Alumni, our friends. As in the past it is still the 50 SPECTATOR mirror of pleasant memories to us and likewise it reflects, at all times the earnestness and hopes of the student body. Let us continue to see therein the reflection of our best efforts. Let us strive for perfection in all our schoolday activities and duties and so feel that we have measured in full for the Spec- tator's approval, the praise of the faculty and the honor and glory of our Alma Mater, the Johnstown High School. Harry Confer, '99. I Greetings The Spectator -what happy memories recalled-what true friendships. ln all these twenty-two years since '00 went forth to conquer the world, what thought have we given Johnstown High? What evidence of appreciation have we shown of the efforts of that earnest group of instructors whose work was the foundation of the present efficient Senior High? Of our little band, some have passed on, life's part too shortly played. ' Those of us still present in our little way should encourage and lend active aid that Senior High may, as in the past, send out into the world young men and women equipped to com- pete. Kramer, Editor in Chief, l900. A Message The letter asking for a brief message for the Alumni num- ber brings suddenly and forcibly to mind that The Spectator and I are twenty-five years-a quarter of a century-older than we once were. And with that realization, proud for you and rather appalling to me, comes the question whether dur- ing that time we have grown and flourished like a green bay tree fby the way the righteous sometimes do that as well as the wickedl or whether we have been as the moss covered stone in the shade of other such trees, andtare merely twenty- five years older. I shall be interested to see the Alumni num- ber and perhaps discern which it is in your case. As for my- self, l'm not telling, and l even refuse to say whether it is shame or modesty that forbids. SPECTATOR 51 It gives me not only great satisfaction to know that I was there when the Spectator was born, but also the keenest kind of pleasure to look back on those days. How we wrestled with it! I hope that it is no longer necessary for the editor to write half the stuff at the last moment because the lure of seeing their literary achievements in print had been insuffi- cient to draw out the Addisons and Steeles of our day. How proud we were when we achieved a room of our own in the new High School on Market Street-the new High School which was so farsightedly large as to be dubbed Fred Krebs' Folly . It took only one high school genera- tion to justify his vision of the needs of, and his faith in the future achievements of the community which he served so well. So if l have any message , in the evangelistic sense, it is carry on , viewing each attainment as merely good prac- tice, preparing for an eVe'r better and better Spectator, with which you can be almost-but most decidedly never quite- satisfied. Sincerely yours, A. P. L. Turner, '0l. Education ln Our Public Schools Physical development should be given greater promi- nence in public school education. The experience with the selected men in the World War should have convinced the nation of this necessity. An astounding proportion of the five million men called were found physically unfit for mili- tary service. If a man is unfit for war service he is certainly handicapped in time of peace for business duties and the up- building of a family. Our democracy takes great pride in its public school system, providing for universal intellectual training. Physical training, however, has not received suf- ficient concern. A dozen years ago Johnstown High had no compulsory provision at all for the body-building of the stu- dents. The football, basket ball and track teams furnished opportunity for those of naturally splendid physique and superabundant energy, but the majorty of the students, lacking the talent or the urge to qualify for athletic teams, were entirely neglected. The High School had no equipped gym- nasuim, no swimming pool, no athletic Held of its own, no 52 SPECTATOR course of instruction in hygiene, and no classes in physical training. A modern school should have all of these. Today a number of large corporations require their sedentary workers twice a day to take brief calisthenic exercises under expert leaders. It is far more important to give the students in our schools physical training at a time of life when defects in structure and physique may be corrected, and when health habits may be easily acquired. Our eastern colleges are now endeavoring to minimize the superimportance of varsity athletics in college life, and are trying to encourage one hun- dred percent participation in athletics by developing intra- mural contests. Our public schools should awaken to the movement, and should not neglect a great duty. Healthy bodies help healthy minds. E Carl E.. Glock, 'l0. Breaking The Educational Monopoly Public education evolved in this country as a democratic agency for assuring equality of opportunity to our youth. It was recognized by leaders that a nation is great only as its people is intelligent. With few exceptions, this opportunity extends, at present, only as far as the high school course. Social compulsion is so limited that even the percentage of students finishing high school is small. Beyond high school we have looked upon education as an individual matter, available for those who have the wherewithal to seek its advantage. ln urging students to obtain a college or university train- ing, emphasis has been placed upon the increased earning capacity which should result. Foregoing the present low income in order to take advantage of more remunerative opportunities resulting from further training has been heralded as a good investment. This attitude necessarily assumes equal opportunity for all, or displays a faith in some mysterious pro- cess by which there is a survival of the fittest, the survivors passing on to college and professional training. As a matter of fact, there is more variance between the income from different types of work than between native abilities. This evidences a lack of opportunity. The reason may be sought in some cases in the failure to realize the possi- bilities of higher education or in family prejudiceg on the SPECTATOR 53 whole, however, it is an economic problem. With the low standard of living forced upon numerous families by the mere subsistence wage earned by the father, the children are drawn into the necessity of helping support the family by going to work as soon as the law permits. This is doubly true when the wage earner is killed or crippled. These children become earners of low wages in jobs with no future and are automati- cally cut off from the higher education which their mental capacity might warrant. On a higher plane of income are many families which are just able in relative comfort, econo- mies enabling their children to pass through the grades or high school. For them four or six more years of schooling is impossible, for their budgets could not meet an additional minimum of S700 fwithout clothing and transportation, which each year would require for each student. Our conclusion must be, then, that except for the few who have the superior physical strength to ,work their way through college, or who have the fortune to receive a substantial scholarship aid, the opportunity for higher education is by no means equal. More than an absence of qualityi it takes the form of monopoly for the upper and higher middle classes,- in terms of financial income, not of native intelligence. For the benefit of our social group as well as for the in- dividuals concerned, this monopoly must be shattered. At present there appear to be four educational agencies working toward that end: city and state colleges with day and night courses, extension departments of universities, correspondence courses and labor colleges. City and state colleges are still slow in democratizing their influence. Extension work is at present limited to a territory sufficiently proximate to the university to be visited by its instructors. Correspondence courses are confined to private schools or are conducted on private bases with profit as an object: this exploitation con- siderably modifies their effectiveness. VThe labor college is still in its infancy in this country, but its voice is lusty. As developed in large industrial and urban centers such as Boston, New York and Chicago, it is promoted by workers for the young generation of workers and brings to its teaching staff instructors from the universities. In a few years its influence will be felt not alone in labor's ranks, but also throughout all the strata and activities of the nation. Another approach to the problem is the enactment of social legislation which will relieve the disparity between 54 SPECTATOR individual opportunnity-. These laws include the prevention of child laborg a standard eight hour day to give more leisure for studyg minimum wage above the mere subsistence levelg accident insurance backed by the state, bringing aid to the injured Workman: illness insurance helping tide the worker's home through the wage-earner's sicknessg old age pension for the man and woman who have given their best efforts to society during their life time: unemployment insurance sta- bilizing the working year against the wolf at the doorg and life insurance or wido'w's pensions helping the struggle in the home after the father has passed on. This is the frght which we can help to win. Enlightened European nations have forged ahead of us in social legislation. Many states are far in advance of Pennsylvania. It is our individual and collec- tive responsibility to influence our representatives at Harris- burg and at Washington, and to check up closely whether their activities and their ballot are directed always toward these social needs. - John H. Cover, 'l l. Some Qbservations This opportunity to serve the Spectator once more brings with it the memories of Johnstown High School in the days when it was our duty to fill this, the Editorial Column, with sage sayings and sound advice couched in the well-known editorial we . The Spectator has served me immeasurably. My pleasure is ever to do my best to serve it in return. There are some observations which deserve expression. First of all, in our four years of college life we have rubbed shoulders and matched wits with students from high schools and prep schools far and near, large and small. It is our firm conviction and conclusion that Johnstown High stands second to none. To be sure, we are aware of the present crowded conditions in Senior High and we are con- scious of some more or less general knocks against the Johns- town school system, ,but we who have come up through the ranks have found that the advantages offered by our high school to students who apply themselves enable those to hold their own against students from any and all other preparatory schools. The faculty has changed somewhat since the time its constituents toiled to penetrate our thickness, but many Y. SPECTATOR 55 remain still faithful to H. S., and of these there are none who could not well serve in higher institutions of learning. You students often fail to appreciate your opportunities. When you reach the high school age you should have realized that teachers can give you, by their personality and association, far more instruction than that embodied in text-books. Men in all walks of life go out of their way to converse with and to obtain the matured opinions of teachers, for the progressive teacher is a student of all situations. You students have every advantage that you can avail yourselves of your teachers' influence without going a step out of the way. Students in high school are at a critical age. The years from twelve to eighteen are known as the early period of adolescence which continues approximately to the age of twenty-four. This early age, however, includes most high school students and it is a period when mind, body, emotions, and ideals are experiencing their greatest development. l-low are they to be developed? What will they be when they are developed? These are your problems and upon your solution depends your future satisfaction or dissatisfaction. Here it is that your teachers can be of so much benefit. You have a faculty whose example and advice can aid you in attaining the most worthy development of mind, body and ideals. We have much opportunity to observe what H. S can do and to profit from what it has done. Consequently we believe it to be for your greatest welfare to become ac- quainted with your opportunities and your faculty. Our motto isg and may yours ever be, Semper Fidelisn F. Estol Simmons, H. S., 'l9. I lT An Editors 's Retrospect How long ago it seems since 192 l's farewell to Johns- town High School. Through the vicissitudes of two years, my own thoughts have constantly been with my Alma Mater, wishing her success in all her undertakings and her strivings, confident that in the future, as in the past, her history will be a noble one. More particularly have my-thoughts oft returned to The Spectator. An E.ditor's Retrospect-it is indeed filled with indelible memories-memories of opportunities and losses, of failure and of success. Although two years have vastly changed policies and even individuals, as editor, se sPnc'rA'roR i my sincerest hopes have always rested in Johnstown High School and the agency through which she attains her just fame- The Spectator . To The Spectator --which is as a dear product of my own, looking back over two years of time, this old editor sends her fondest and best greetings. Dorothy E. Wilder, '2l. First Experiences ofa Freshman in College Many and varied are the experiences of a student who enters college for the first time. The High School graduate still possessing his senior dig- nity enters college feeling somewhat shy, but nevertheless confident that he will be much respected by the upper class- men with Whom he is to corrie into contact. He even expects the professors to marvel at his wisdom, but that old and time- Worn pharse, Pride cometh before a fall never was more true. The Freshman, much to his consternation, finds that he is not only obliged to obey the numerous rules of the school, but also rules given by the upper classmen. Only too soon does he find that he is a mere nobody, an object of mirth to the upper classmen. The new student now encounters the almost unsurmount- able difficulties connected with the arrangement of his college schedule. After numerous conflicts he finally settles down to the routine of college life. In a short time he finds that college assignments are far more difficult than those given in High School. The professors seem as grim and unapproachable as Egyptian Sphinxes. During the first few weeks at college usually come the first symptoms of that dread disease homesickness. Only those who have had this disease can sympathize with,the Freshman. Words cannot describe it! By this time, the newcomer begins to think that college is all work and no play. Soon, however, social functions such as fraternity dances and banquets, parties, and hikes make college life seem brighter. By the end of the first month in college the student understands why the first year in college is said to be the happiest. Gladys Bantley, 2 I SPECTATOR 57 A Retrospect When we, the class of l922, passed from Johnstown High School for the last time as students, the future to us was merely a haze of uncertainty that would clarify itself as time passed on. ,Now that mist has risen and we have found ourselves in a new sphere, not perhaps entirely unfamiliar, but one based on a much larger scale. Numerous problems have con- fronted usg greater responsibilities have heaped upon our shoulders. Nevertheless, it has been through our high school preparation that we have been able to compete with the de- mands of higher education. Not so much the work, but the sentiment connected with it, has served to remind us of what has gone before. We well remember the spirited class-meetings and our chapel exercises. The earnest endeavor of our principal and faculty, to further our progress has increased our desire for success. There is happiness in knowing that we are welcome in our high school where yesterday's reality has become the memory of today. Anna May Franke, '22. I SPECTATOR 'J 9 f J?

The lesson was read by Park Shaffer. Brandon Rhode- hamel made an announcement concerning the Senior Specta- tor. The entertainment of the morning was a play entitled 'LA Ghost Story by Booth Tarkington, which had been pre- sented at the Senior Hallowe'en Party. Visitors to the Cambria Library during the week of No- vember l2, had the pleasure of seeing a display of very at- tractive posters for More Books in the Home Week. Among the most attractive of these posters, were those drawn by the students from our drawing department. SPECTATOR 63 A meeting of the Student Council was held in the School Library, Monday, Nov. 20, at which the matter of smoking around the school, was taken up. Emory Kristof handed in his resignation as a member of the Kiwanis Club, Albert Seihl being elected to take his place. , During the months of October and November, fifteen new students entered our high school. We Wish to extend to them our hearty welcome, and hope they will enter into the spirit and goodfellowship of the school. Many students spent the week-end, Nov. IO, 'l l, l2, at Greensburg and State College. Among those who attended Penn State house parties were: Miriam Davis fTheta -Kilg Madaline Elliott and Kathryn Gocher CPhi Kapua Tau, 5 Hen- rietta Von Lunen, Mildred Bigler, Vivian Raab and Betty I-lagin. The Freshman Class celebrated Halloween season by giving a party and dance on Oct. 30, l922. Between seventy- Hve and eighty Freshmen attended. Nearly all were masked. The costumes varied from the old-fashioned girl of '76 to the tramp of to-day. Seven ladies attended acting as chaperons, two of whom were teachers. The affair was held in the gym- nasium and the Freshmen used decorations that the Seniors had arranged for their dance. Prizes were awarded by George Flinn, President of the Freshies , Miss Fleck, and the chape- rons. The prize warded to the best looking girl was won by Phyliss Kress. The prize awarded for the prettiest costume was given to Evannah Edwards. The prize for the youngest person was awarded to Sadie Kaminsky, and Florence James captured the prize for the funniest costume. Catherine Cos- tongo was awarded a prize for having the most colors in her costume. Room 106 was given the prize for having the high- est percentage of pupils present. A play entitled A Halloween Prank was given, and enjoyed immensely. Refreshments were served and at ten o'clock a happy crowd of Freshies disbanded, all glad to know that the Freshman Class of '25 M and '26 had the honor of holding the first Freshman party in five years. 64 SPECTATOR 7 xrhangvn The Spectator wishes to express its appreciation of the increased number of exchanges received during the month of November. The results of October's watching and waiting had almost convinced us that the contributors to our exchange column had forsaken us: but suddenly a veritable deluge of their coveted publications found its way to our table. How- ever, it matters not how fast, or in how great numbers, ex- changes continue to come in, we can always take care of just twice as many, for the Spectator anticipates making many new acquaintances.

The following lines, selected from the Nor-Win , are an excellent sample of the school spirit , of which we have lately heard so much: It isn't the school which you attend, Or the students who go to be taught, Or the number of subjects which you attempt, Or the passing them as you ought. an It isn't the way your work is clone, Or the way you cheer at the games, Or whether you take a certain course, And do the things that it names. If you get in tune with conditions 'round you With your heart and your labors, too, You will love your school thought it has its faultsg For it isn't the school, it's you. V 66 SPECTATOR Aihlvrim Johnstown High Qutplayed by Greensburg The Greensburg High School football team repulsed the Johnstown High attack at Athletic Park, Greensburg. Seven thousand people witnessed the game, which turned out to be more of a surprise to the Greensburg people than they ex- pected, for the people in that town were of the opinion that Greensburg High School would beat Johnstown High by 90 points. , The Greensburg team made its first touchdown in the first quarter when Marsh made a lateral pass to Guarino who swung around the right end. Guarino dropkicked the ball through the posts for an extra point which made the score Greensburg 7, Johnstown 0. Guarino made another touchdown when he skirted the left end for I5 yards and a touchdown in the second quarter. The score was Greensburg 13, Johnstown 0. The third quarter proved to be the hardest for the Greensburg team. They were unable to gain ground as early as they had done and the quarter ended Greensburg l3, Johnstown 0. At the beginning of the fourth quarter the ball was on the I3-yard line, when Hull broke through the Johnstown line, shook off several tacklers, and made a touchdown. Hull made another touchdown from the 50-yard line, this making the score: Greensburg 27, Johnstown 0. A few minutes play and the final whistle blew ending the game.

Altoona High School Defeats Johnstown High School The Johnstown High School football team was defeated by the Altoona High eleven when the two teams met on Cricket Field, Saturday, November 25. About l0,000 people witnessed the game which was hard fought from beginning to end. The first quarter proved to be one in which neither team was able to gain ground. A strong defense on both sides was an-outstanding feature and the system of play confusing to both teams. The first quarter ended without a score. Altoona scored twice in the second quarter. Nicker broke through the Johnstown line for the first touchdown. Maley broke through and blocked the attempt of Mobus for a placement. Bartholomew made a 78-yard run for a touch- down. Ullery made a drop kick for the extra point. The score was Altoona I3, Johnstown 0. The third quarter was a hard fought period in the game and neither side gained a great deal of ground and at the end of the quarter the score remained the same. The fourth quarter brought the Johnstown lads success, but it came too late for they were unable to gain enough ground after they had succeeded in scoring. Capt. Maley snatched one of the Altoona passes and ran 42 yards for a ml 68 SPECTATOR touchdown. A neat drop kick by Maley added another point. The game ended with the score: Altoona l3, Johnstown 7.

Johnstown High Wins Game With l-lollidayshurg ln one of the most hard fought games of the season Johnstown High School triumphed over the I-lollidaysburg football team. The local team displayed some of their old- time pep in the last half of the game and succeeded in scoring I3 points. The Hollidaysburg team had the game all their own way until the last half opened, when the Johnstown boys swept them from their feet by their quick succession of forward passes and end runs. SPECTATOR 69 The first quarter was uneventful and neither side seemed to be able to gain ground. The quarter ended with the ball on Johnstowrfs 42-yard line in possession of Holiidaysburg. The beginning of the second quarter proved successful for I-lollidaysburg. Sommer dropped back and kicked the ball. Von Lunen fumbled and it rolled over the goal line, where E.. Fleckenstein recovered it. Before he could again get on the field he was tackled by Pfalggraff, thus giving Hol- lidaysburg a score of 2. This was followed soon by a touch- down but the Johnstown team succeeded in blocking the placement. The score at the end of the second quarter was Hollidaysburg B, Johnstown 0. The third quarter proved to be a surprise. The Johns- town boys came on the field with determination to win, and they did. They swept Hollidaysburg before them in their forward march down the gridiron which ended when V. Hart- nett made the first touchdown. The score at the end of the third quarter was Johnstown 6, Hollidaysburg 8. The first touchdown was followed by a second in the fourth quarter when Hartnett again made a line plunge. Maley succeeded in his placement. The score was Johnstown l3, Hollidaysburg 8. A few minutes play and the game ended the Johnstown team victors and the spectators pleased with the score Johnstown I3, Hollidaysburg 8.

In 209 l'd have to say- Should I happen to wander away And come to school the least bit late- And there would be dealt my fate.

One Christmas eve, Old 'Santa Claus, Came sliding down the chimney, He had concealed within his bag, A little cat for Jimmy. This cat it was a funny thing With three wide stripes across its backg And around its neck there was a ring, Of white and gray and maybe black. Tied around its tail there was a card, Which said in letters very small, That if you'd punch it very hard It would meow like Tabby Moll. Santa put it in the stocking: Then up the chimney he did hie Lest it would be very shocking Should Jimmy find him by and by. ml SPECTATOR Jimmy loved his little kitten, Made him meow 'most every day, But at last the cat was smitten, Alas, his meower did give way!

What interest rate or profit is promised? If the rate is high-higher than you could obtain from well- known, sound securities, beware. What does the circular say in plain English and plain figures? The substantial proposition sticks to its last. The fake runs to frothy superlatives, dear friend stuff and opportunity of a life-time spasms. Look for financial statements, with income state- ments and balance sheets, audited by a reputable or- ganization or sworn to by a reputable person. If you do not find these things, stop right there. Beware of long distance promotions. The far- ther a promoter has to go from home to raise money, the more risk you run of a bad investment and the less chance you have for redress or restitution. These rules do not apply in every case, but they are good rules by which to save the family savings to the family.

SPECTATOR 39 '4 it 42? ,Q llll fa vi.. D Dr. Kellog's Strange Patient Vallie Lengyel, 'ZZM Clarence Kellogg's great ambition was to become a fa- mous surgeon. With this in view he studied the various sci- ences at the local High School, Where he was a senior. One day While the physiology class was discussing the various organs of the abdomen and the thorax, the question rose as to the functions of the gall bladder. One student had asked the question, What becomes of the bile when the gall bladder is removed? The teacher asked for volunteers in thexclass to report on this subject on the following clay, and Clarence promptly volunteered. That evening he went to his uncle Dr. Brown, a well known surgeon, to ask for information on the subject. His uncle was too busy to go into details but gave him a medical book on the subject of the gall bladder. He was amazed by the size of the book but he thanked his uncle and went home. Without saying a word to the other members of his family, he went to his room where he set himself the task of reading the book. As he proceeded, the technical terms and the details of the treatise confused him until the printed page before him became a mass of unintelligible statements. His head sunk down on the table and he was soon asleep. Directly he dreamed that he was Dr. Kellogg, a famous specialist, one whose reputation was as far-reaching among the poor as the rich. 40 SPECTATOR One night while in his study he was disturbed by the butler's informing him that a man in chauffeur's uniform wished to see him on important business. Thinking that it might be the servant of one of his wealthy patients as no other would dare annoy him at this hour of the night, he told the butler to admit the man. I-Ie asked the man what his mission was at this hour of the night. The chauffeur re- plied, His excellenecy wishes to see you immediately. The case is a serious one. Dr. Kellogg lost no time in donning his coat and hat, and with his instrument case in his hand, he hurried down the steps and entered a luxurious limousine, the curtains of which were drawn, and thus he was unable to see in what direction he was being taken. just when he had reached the point of being concerned about the matter, the car came to a stop and the chauffeur informed him that this was the place where his Excellency lived. The house appeared to be a two story building which looked old and dilapidated. There was no light except in one of the rooms on the first floor. Dr. Kellogg followed the chauffeur into the house and was taken into a room that served as a parlor. The dim light revealed a certain elegance of days long past, and as he stood in the shaded room, a hag- gard looking old man who walked with great difficulty, ad- vanced toward him and asked very anxiously, Are you the famous Dr. Kellogg whom I sent for?i' I am Dr. Kellogg, but I do not understand. You are are not one of my patients. The old man gave a hollow mocking laugh, I am Death. You may not know me, but I have been at the bed side of many Whom you have tried to save. Sometimes you had defied me, but now a strange feeling has come over me. I fear that I am going to die. I beg your help. For a moment Dr. Kellogg recoiled at this strange state- ment, but after a moment all of his professional feeling came back to him and he consented, saying, I shall have to ex- amine you first, so that I can diagnose your case, and then I can tell what I can do for you. Death willingly submitted to the examination. When it was over Dr. Kellogg said, 'il am afraid that your only hope lies in an operation. This frightened Death and he spoke with great effort, I am afraid that I wouldn't be able to survive an operation, especially the effects of the ether. SPECTATOR 41 Dr. Kellogg laughingly replied, Why, my dear man, l have successfully performed hundreds of operations of the same nature, and I now believe that l could do it blind- folded. This seemed to relieve Death's fear, as his next words were, 'il am willing to submit to the operation since l trust you. With the aid of the chauffeur, Dr. Kellogg improvised an operating table on which they gently laid Death. After having placed him under an anaesthetic, Dr. Kellogg pro- ceeded to operate. During the operation there came into his mind a sudden thought and he said to himself. Suppose l should let my knife slip purposely and Death should die. Mankind would no further fear this monster who robbed them of Life, that which was most dear to them. Then again he thought that since Death has put so much faith in him, he ought to do his duty. But he could not drive the evil thought from his mind, and the longer he thought about it the more determined he became, until it seemed so easy to make the fatal cut. A few moments later Death stopped breathing. Dr. Kellogg turned to the chauffeur and said, Your master is dead, you should have called me sooner, then I might have been able to save him. The chauffeur did not seem to be concerned about his master's death, and helping Dr. Kellogg gather up his instru- ments, they proceeded on their return trip. During the ride, Dr. Kellogg saw visions of his name in the papers, heralding him as a hero and saviour of Mankind. He even saw himself being feted by kings and presidents, as the most talked of man of the day. Then suddenly the car came to a stop, and a middle aged man, tall of stature, closely resembling Dr. Kel- logg's latest patient, opened the door and extended an en- velope toward him saying, Here is S5000 for your services. It is too bad that Dad had to die, for l will now have to con- tinue his work. I should have called you sooner. Dr. Kel- logg was so dumbfounded that before he could say a word to the stranger, the door had been closed and the stranger had disappeared. He fell back into the seat very much ag- grieved in seeing his hopes shattered so suddenly. Clarence was awakened from his sleep by a familiar voice calling, Clarence, what are you doing? Why don't you go to bed? Don't you know it is after I2 o'clock? 42 SPECTATOR The only response that Clarence gave, was, Oh, gee, Mother, l'm only studying my physiology lesson. Marjorieis Thrill Evelyn Nelson, ZZM. Oh, Marjorie! exclaimed Helen Ford to the pretty girl sitting at a dressing table in a spacious, sunny bedroom. Why will you let your jewelry lie around? l'm so afraid some horrid burglar will break in. Nonsense, Helen, laughingly answered Marjorie. What stupid burglar would ever visit such a place as Belle- ville? I wish such an event would happen. It would cause a little entertainment in this dead place, anyway. Well, you'll get enough excitement if some horrid burg- lar comes in and scares you to death and takes all your belongings, Helene retorted petulantly. Well, if they scare me to death, l shan't need jewelry, Marjorie answered, with a laugh. This conversation took place in the girls' dormitory at Belleville School. Helen, Marjorie's rather timid little room- mate, had tried, ever since the two girls became friends, to convince the latter that the daughter of a rich manufacturer should not so carelessly place her jewels. Marjorie, how- ever, made as light of Helen's advice as she had on former occasions, for without putting away the much discussed jew- elry, she caught Helen by the arm, with the exclamation, Come, we'll be late for class, and swept her toward the clas room. Here they met two of their classmates, Dick Benton and Howard Franklin, and the four talked while they waited for the class to begin. The subject drifted to amuse- ments, especially the amusements of Belleville. 'iWell, said Dick, Belleville's a swell little place. lt suits me admirably, added Howard. Why, you boys surely can't be in earnest! Marjorie exclaimed. The place is perfectly dead. I forget what it feels like to be excited. Young lady, just what kind of excitement do you pre- fer? teased Dick. We'll try to supply it. Oh, thrills and then more thrills, answered Marjorie. SPECTATOR 43 Yes, Helen interposed, she actually said she'd like the excitement that a burglar would cause. Can you irnagine? And Helen lifted her hands in just protest. PheW! exclaimed Howard, you're welcome to any burglars that drift around Belleville. Here the conversation was dropped, as the recitation be- gan. Several evenings later, after an especially trying day, Marjorie and Helen were preparing for bed. Of all tiresome days, this has been the most tiresome, complained Marjorie. I am completely worn out. I do wish something exciting would happen to liven up this stupid place. Maybe something will happen if you wait long enough, Helen drawled sleepily from under the covers. Before Marjorie was ready for bed, Helen was asleep. Marjorie was restless and unable to sleep. Her nerves were on edge. Every sound disturbed her. Helen even snoredg and she could not remember having heard her do so before. She tossed restlessly for some time, then, finally, sank into a doze. ' M Suddenly she sat uprightiiin bed. What was that sound she had heard? She must have been asleep. But, there it was again, an unaccustomed, strange grating. Peering into the darkness, she saw, to her horror, a dark figure beside her dressing table, and another at the window. With a shriek, she buried her head under the covers. Her cry awoke Helen, who, jumping up, shrieked, Oooh! l-t-t-told y-you so-ol Startled by Helenis cry, the figure by the window drop- ped out of sight and the second figure followed swiftly. It seemed ages before the girls gained courage to get up and examine the room. Then, they discovered that Marjorieis jewels had disappeared. Oh, my jewels, my jewels, wailed Marjorie. They're g-g-gone. There was no more rest that night. In fact, for several days the school life was disturbed. No clue to the robbery could be found and Marjorie repeatedly complained that she did not understand why a detective was not put on the track of the burglars. A detective could surely find them, she argued. One 44 SPECTATOR was a 'nigger' of medium. height. l couldn't see the other one. About a week after the robbery, Marjoie went from Latin class to her room for a prose book. She opened the bookcase, and was about to take the text from the shelf, when she started and exclaimed, Well, l never! There, on top of the books, was a box of jewels, and on top of the box was a note reading: Buy your excitement and thrills from us. We are ex- pertsf' Respectfully submitted, The Burglars. With a happy laugh, Marjorie rushed back to her class. The whole situation had dawned upon her. Oh, l've found my jewels! she exclaimed. And you, Dick, she added, ul don't know what I shall do to you and Howard. At any rate, you provided rne with the long-hoped- for thrill, but l think I have had enough excitement for one dose. Then, from a far corner of the room, came Helen's voice, which, true to its sex, rang out triumphantly, I told you so! Success Over Failure Charles Sakmar, ZZM It was in the small town of Hickville that David Telling was reared, and it was Hickville he chose to be his place of retirement. His twin brother, Henry, was just the opposite. He chose the outside world as his home. Henry was very wild in his younger days, while David, the more timid and steady, took all the blame of his brother's mischievous tricks. Their father sent the boys to a boarding school, where Henry continued to play upon his brother's weakness, of taking all his blatme. College days were now over and we find David longing to center all his interests at home, for here were his parents, friends, and above all, Jenny Wilkins, who had prorriised to marry him as soon as he was through school and well on the way of earning a living. SPECTATOR 45 Henry was glad to see his parents and his friends, but after a stay of two weeks, he set out into the world, with one thought and that, was to be a successful business man by starting from the bottom up. Through his commercial training, he managed to get a position as salesman for a small firm. His salary was low and he did not have money enough to see him through. After a stay of six months he became well acquainted with the city and in order to get more money he took to gambling. The gamblers looked upon Henry as a fiery, energetic youth, who craved activity. Having no knowledge of the gambling game, he soon lost all of his 'money. He did not have a cent, not even enough for a meal. One of the gamblers, seeing the position he was in and thinking he would do anything to obtain money, drew him into a robbing scheme, placing him on guard. Henry had no idea where he was being taken, but the in- stant he saw that the home that was being robbed, was that of his employer, he Hed. He thought of the bad name he would receive, if he was caught, and too, he would be pointed out as a gambler. He was ashamed of himself. It was a year since he had chosen the bad side of life, but always there was one thought kindling in his mind, and and that was concerning his mother. A thousand questions he could have asked about her. Of his college days he now thought, of his brohter. Here he was a social outcast and a failure in life, with no business or profession. He could not apply for a position, for he was known all around that district as a bad character. He could not go elsewhere, for he had not money enough to see him through. He finally borrowed train fare and turned his face homeward. It was with a heavy heart and a grim determination, that he journeyed Eastward, to the town of Hickville, to home, the last and best place on this earth. Henry arrived in the town after dark and the first thing he saw was the town church. He gave it a long thoughtful look and went on towards home. It was only a brief walk from the station, during which time he managed to gather enough wit and humour, with which he had always entered his home. Before entering the door, he glanced through the window. There were his father, his brother David and his wife, toog but his mother,-where was she? 46 SPECTATOR All were glad to see him, not enough of welcome and joy could be extended. He inquired for his mother, only to be told, after a moment or two, that she had died two months before. He was stunned. He would have given up his own life for her sake. He had loved her dearly, and it is just when he needed her most, that he realize dhis great loss. It was a sorrowful time for Henry, for, he felt it was he who had really caused her death. Henry braced himself up and became a man, well worthy of his name. The Tolling Engineering Company, reached its height of success and it was this motto, taken after Henry's experience, that David often quoted to his children: Do not aim to strive toward success until you've started from the bot- tom upf' Luciais Victory Lillian Fye, ZZM. One evening, Lucia, alone as usual, walked slowly home from school, deep in thought. She was discouraged, for dur- ing the past four years she had been isolated by her class- mates. Had it not been for one teacher who was interested in her, she could not have finished her course. Now gradua- tion was near, her father had failed in business, and she did not know how to meet the expenses which graduation in- volved. After pondering over the mattering she had gone to ask Miss Brown what might be done, but she learned this one friend was absent on account of serious illness, so, sadly she Went home with the problem unsolved. When she reached the house an automobile stood in front of the door and she found her mother and a doctor talking very seriously about her father, who had been brought home in an unconscious condition. Exhausted by worry and business failures, he had overworked in order to keep the little family, and now the break had come. The doctor suggested taking him to a hospital, but financial circumstances would not permit this, and family pride would not accept charity. Weeks slipped by and finally because her mother was worn out with caring for the patient, Lucia's attendance at school became very irregular. Cne morning she read in the paper of a contest which the Editor of the school paper, the SPECTATOR 47 Echo, had opened in which articles were to be written for the big Senior Number. The person writing the best article whether story, editorial, or essay, would be awarded a prize of twenty-five dollars. With little hope of success, yet with great desire to Win the prize, Lucia decided to enter the con- test. She had two weeks in which to do the writing. During those weeks, however, many things came in the way so that she had no opportunity to write. On the day before the contest closed her father was so critically ill that the doctor looked very grave when he made his last call. l-le said that if the patient could sleep he would pass the crisis safely, but without sleep the outcome was very uncertain. Her mother and she waited anxiously. About ten o'clock the father sank into a quiet sleep. They watched breathlessly. The regular breathing convinced them that the sleep was nat- ural and her mother dropped upon a couch to rest. As Lucia watched her father anxiously she was reminded of her early childhood in Italy, and she felt a certain homesick- ness. Then she thought of the contest. Finally she took pencil and paper and wrote for some time. About midnight her father roused but soon fell asleep again. Thinking it not necessary to disturb her tired mother she began to write once more. For hours she wrote. She wrote of her playmates in their village home in ltaly, of her mother's friends, of the beautiful olive groves which she had seen so often, of beautiful Venice, and of Rome with its wonders of ancient times. Then she wrote about the things she had been told of America with all its opportunities. But how different was the America that she had found. While she had 'more opportunities everyone seemed so selfishg her parents and she had been isolated, lonely and disappointed. They had suffered greatly because of poverty and illnenss. She did not wish to complain but the climax of her paper was an appeal to Americans to help those who came to their land. The next morning found her father much improved. Lucia reluctantly went back to school, Where she timidly put her story into the Echo box as she passed the office. A week later at the Assembly in the auditorium the prin- cipal of the school introduced lVlr. Smith, the chairman of the committee that had judged the articles submitted in the con- test. lVlr. Smith said that many of the papers were very good, but the article entitled The Personal Experiences of a For- 48 SPECTATOR eignerf' was the most appealing and best of all the articles on account of the material used and the excellent English. He asked for the person who had written it. For a moment there was breathless silence. Then Lucia, trembling with joy, went slowly to the platform where she was given her prize amidst loud applause. From every side she received congratulations, she had gained recognition, perhaps even ifriends. The news of her success was a joy to her parents not only because the recognition meant financial aid towards her grad- uation, but especially because it had won for her friends who brightened the last weeks of her high school life. Through Mr. Smith's interest in her future she found a position which en- abled her to help support her parents and gave her opportu- nities by Which she was able to go on later in life as a successful writer. 1 sP1zcrAToR 49 Class Song .UW -Raymond Kellar The time has come to say farewell to dear old Johnstown High, Four happy years have quickly passed to tell of them, we'll try.

Jack Bonnor sat, dangling his legs over the edge of a big rock, looking down into the valley. A small creek wound through the brown meadows like a silver thread through a bright colored piece of cloth. The corn had been cut and the shocks were standing in long even rows. Here and there a splotch of bright orange told of great heaps of pumpkins. The hills that rose from the little valley were each in red, orange and green. The sky was clear blue with one little line of clouds in the west where the sun was fast disappearing. Jack was to leave all this and go into parts unknown to Search for the brother of the man who had been a father to him. Charles Bonnor had adopted Jack when he was a very small boy and had been the lad's only friend. Would Jack carry out his foster father's last request or would he spend the fortune Charles Bonnor had worked so hard to make? No, he would find his man and try in some way to repay his foster father for picking him up on a lonely street in a distant city and bringing him to Pleasant Valley where he had received a home and a name. With quick strides he went down the winding path and walked into his beautiful house. The house itself was an old colonial mansion which had lately been equipped with modern conveniences. The interior with its artistically carved panel- ings, Jack had made the most beautiful house in all the country about . He fastened the strap on his traveling bag and took a last look at the big hall. I-le heard the old grandfather clock strike seven as he locked the door and put the key in his pocket, and he heard the train whistle a few miles up the valley as he started for the station. Exactly a year after jack left home-a year of fruitless wandering-he stepped from the train in the little town of Sunrise, Alaska. Seeing a boy on the platform, he inquired for a place where he could obtain lodging. Come with me, said the boy, and I will take you to the best place in town. The boy led him to the front door of a picturesque log cottage. A woman answered his knock and bade him enter. I-le made his wishes known and was given a room. SPECTATOR 51 That evening, while sitting before the fire with a num- ber of the lodgers, he began to tell the story of John Bonnor who had been missing for about twenty years. ul knew that man, exclaimed an old man who had been listening with interest. I prospected with him in the Klon- dike. We came here and he started this inn. I-le died only a few months ago. His daughter, Miss Bonnor, has taken over the business. I often thought John had money, but no one knows where it is. He left no will nor records. There is absolutely nothing, not even a deed to this property, which I helped him buy. It seems mighty mysterious. I hope something will turn up yet. Well, said Jack, I have at last found trace of the man l have been looking for, even though it has taken me a year to do it. What is Miss Bonner's first name? Mary, answered the old prospector, and a fine girl she is. I must see her, said Jack as he sprang from his chair and made a quick exit into the hall. Cautiously he opened the door from the hall into the kitchen which he knew 'was Mary's particular domain. Upon stepping inside he was greeted by a very angry, but good looking young woman who was washing dishes. She was apparently chief for she had been giving orders to a stubborn cook. Well, what do you want? she snapped, the latter part of the question losing its sharpness. May I speak to Miss Bonnor? asked Jack in a rather frightened voice. I am she, and the girl smiled perceptibly. So you are my cousin Mary? said Jack as the color began to creep into his face. Your what? said Mary. Then Jack told her the story as it had been told to him by his father. How two brothers had quarreled over a pocket book which had been missing. john was blamed for stealing it and rather than quarrel, he had left home. The purse was found later and Charles had spared no money or effort in the search through the whole country for John. The search had been vain for he was unable to travel as a younger man could have clone. On his deathbed he had requested jack to make a last search. 52 SPECTATOR V Well, said Mary, Daddy was an honest man and had always been a good man. He did very well on one of his trips to the Klondike, but I never have seen any gold or any trace of it. l think he must have it hidden somewhere in the house. If you really want to help me, just solve this mystery. Surely l will help you. What shall l do? inquired Jack. I That is what I should like to know. If l knew I would do it myself. You are just like all men. They always want the women to do the thinking. Suppose you conduct the search. Perhaps you can solve the mystery, I can't, said Mary as she passed out of the kitchen leaving Jack standing in awe at being so suddenly put in position of Sherlock Holmes. Nice girl, was his mental comment as he stumbled up the narrow stairs to the room which had been assigned him. It was a long narrow room, rather badly lighted by two small windows at one end. A chimney with an open fire place filled one end. The walls made of oak were stained and polished until they shone, but the scant furnishings of the room gave it the air of a hermit's cell. For a long time Jack sat on his bed thinking. There was no time like the present, yet he knew he could do nothing that night. Dreaming of finding hidden fortune he passed a rest- less time until daylight. , That day he began a systematic search. I-le started in the cellar. Mary took keen interest in seeing him turn every spadeful of the earth floor and watched him eagerly as he tapped every stone in the Walls. The task required three days but brought no success. In like manner they proceeded through all the rooms of the cottage including the room which Jack oc- cupied and which had been John Bonnor's. Here Mary and he were particularly careful. They even removed great pieces of the wall panels and of the Hoor, for Mary was most anxious to find valuable papers which she remembered having seen in her father's desk shortly before his death. But all the efforts were fruitless. Mary gave up. Jack concluded that he was a failure as a treasure hunter if that treasure meant papers and gold. He did feel, however, that the house contained at least one treasure for him, so he lin- gered and the days lengthened into weeks. Finally he could SPECTATOR 53 make no further excuse for tarrying and reluctantly prepared to return home. When he was packing his bag he stopped every few minutes to examine some crack and curious piece of paneling for he said to himself, lf there is anything, it must be in this room. As he closed his bag, he gathered up some scraps of paper and a larger bundle of piled up newspapers, threw them into the fire place and put a match to them. To his surprise the smoke poured out into the room. He hurriedly stamped out the fire and then with the aid of a lamp began to examine the opening into the chimney. To his surprise he discovered that the flue was entirely closed up by what looked like a damper. He tried to turn it. But it would not turn where- upon he examined it more closely and found it to be an iron box securely wedged into the small opening. With the aid of the poker and by prying he succeeded in knocking the soft pine wedges out and the box fell into the fireplace. The box was made of sheet iron and was about two feet square. It was made by some skilled Workman who had put an iron strap completely around it, the ends of which were fastened together with a light lock. A few quick blows with the end of the poker broke the lock and Jack threw back the lid. The box contained many valuable papers and a large quantity of gold which was Valued at thousands of dollars. Well, l guess that is one thing l found without a woman's aid, teased Jack as he handed the contents of the box to Mary. Mary, however, proved to be jack's biggest discovery at the Bonnor lnn. I-le said dozens of times if he said it once, that he was glad that Mary was only a foster cousin. A month later Jack's car drove up in front of the house at Pleasant Valley. Jack stepped upon the front porch of his home. l-lis foster father's old servant opened the doorg and as the old grandfather clock struck seven, Jack carried his bride over the threshold of her new home. 54 SPECTATOR A Victorious Knight Mary Cook, '22M. Will Lewis started from his Hblueu reverie and opened the door to admit his churn, Ro Strong, flushed and excited. His excitement, however, changed to disappointment as he saw the expression on his friend's face. By George, Lewis, what did 'she' do this time? Couldn't you put on a longer face-you remind me of the old man of the sea! Let's hear your tale of woeg you'll feel better for tell- ing it. Drawing up a chair, Strong pushed Lewis into it and himself took possession of the bed. Lewis who had brightened at his friend's appearance, fell into an attitude gloomier than the former. Theres simply no use, he began. Every time l call, something turns up. The last time l called l thought at first l was getting along fine until she began to fool with that Curly of hers. Confound that dog, anyway! I believe she likes him better than she does me. He concluded this speech with such a woeful expression that Strong was convulsed with laughter. Brace up, Old Man, you're good for a few years longer. I say, Will, have you forgotten that we fellows were to take the girls for a climb over Caveman Hill? 'Shes' going along, you know. Caveman Hill was noted for its numerous rocks and heavy scrubby undergrowth. Some parts of the hill had been partly cleared, and one of these clearings was particularly well known to the boys. Here they had been collecting Biology specimens during the summer and on this occasion they had invited the girls to help them complete their fall collection. Saturday afternoon found Caveman Hill resounding with the shouts and songs of the young people. Suddenly in the midst of the merriment, Marian Campbell screamed. ln an instant Will was by her side. I-le was just in time to see a snake shoot into the thicket. Marian held up her hand and cried: It bit me. Oh, it bit me. Will seized the hand, drew out his handkerchief and bound the arm tightly above the wound to stop the poison from circulating nearer the heart. Next he sucked the poisoned wound and bound it with handkerchiefs supplied by numerous m SPECTATOR 55 hands. This bit of first aid completed, Marian was rushed to the hospital for further treatment. Two weeks had passed since the Caveman Hill accident. Ro Strong was torturing his chum with a banjo and some new college songs when the phone rang. Yes, this is Will.--You, Marian? What? - Thank me for what? -- Aw, forget it. - You can't forget it? Well, then I don't want to be thanked over the phone. Suppose I -may l--Youill let me come over? - Thanks, I'll be over in half on hour. Will hung up the receiver and turned to his chum. Ro, old fellow, what do you think-, he began. Don't get excited, you boob. Do you suppose that rag musicihas so entirely deafened me that l couldn't hear you? But congratulations, old man, even I'll admit you did a good piece of first aid and deserve your reward. Now run along, and good luck. With that, Ro helped Will into his coat and watched him leave the room. A few minutes later, Will rang the bell of the Campbells home and was admitted by Marian, herself. Come in, Billy, why, you're fifteen minutes early, she said, as she ushered him into the parlor. Early! I can never be early when I come over here! Hello, Curly, here as usual. You don't seem to be very fond of Curly, teased Marian. Of course I'm fond of him. I like anything you like. I-low is your arm, Marian? he asked, changing the subject. Oh, very much better. Now will you accept my thanks? H she asked. Will had taken his place beside her and his arm was resting on the couch back of her. Your thanks? Am I to be paid with mere words, Marian? he asked. What do you mean, you naughty boy, she pouted. Curly, come here this instant. But Will's arm was quicker, and from that moment Curly's place in lVlarian's affections was strictly second. 56 SPECTATOR l-lis First Date John Ford, 'zzn Tonight was the big night. Ted Mercer had been think- ing of it, preparing for it and dreaming of it for the last three days. Tonight he was to go out with his girl. To tell the truth she could not be called his girl, because before this he had merely been acquainted with her. He had known her in school and from the beginning he had an ambition to be more than a mere acquaintance. Marjorie Kohn was about seventeen. She was pretty, pleasant and fun-loving. All the fellows at school were wild about her. Ted had never cared much for girls and seldom went near them, but when Marjorie appeared tjhe even tenor of his school life was broken and he asked her for a date. She accepted and Ted was half joyful and half fearful at his own audacity. Long before the time set for the meeting, Ted was all dressed up. I-le wore a new, blue serge suit, a very brilliant colored tie, new shoes, silk socks with clocks, a white English broadcloth shirt and a new Stetson hat that was really becom- ing. Ted did look nice. After he had finished dressing he ate his dinner hurriedly, and went to his room to put the Hn- ishing touches to his appearance. It was 6:30 and his meeting with Marjorie was scheduled for 8:30. He paced nervously up and down in his room, glancing every few minutes at his watch. At 7 o'clock he could stand the strain no longer and donned his overcoat and hat and went out. He Walked to the corner of Main and Market Street Ctheir rendezvous, and set 'himself for his vigil. His watch said 7:15. One hour and fifteen minutes to wait. He watched every girl to see if she was Marjorie. The minutes dragged by like hours. I-le be- came tired and sauntered to the drug store and sat on the wainscoting under the window. He felt better and began to plan what he and Marjorie ought to talk about during the evening. He felt some one tapping him on the shoulder and looked up to see a big policeman standing in front of him. The officer was smiling. Ted smiled too. Then the officer told him that he happened to be sitting on wet paint. Ted jumped up horror-stricken and looked at his overcoat. Sure enough, there were two streaks of white paint on his coat tail. Fortu- SPECTATOR 57 nately the overcoat was a light cream-colored one and the paint did not show brilliantly. He went again to his old post at the corner and glanced up at the town clock. It was eight o'clock. Surely it must be later than that, he said almost aloud. He took out 'his watch and found that it agreed with the town clock. He waited a while then. By George! l knew I was forgetting something. He had forgotten his hand- kerchief. He ran up the street and into the house nearly bowling over his father who was just coming out to have a quiet evening smoke. His father was still mumbling unprinta- ble words when Ted again flashed past him, burst open the gate and ran down the street at top speed. He reached the corner just as the town clock struck the half hour. Marjorie was not in sight. Still he waited. Finally at 8:50 Marjorie arrived. Ted suggested that they go to the Majestic and Mar- jorie agreed. They walked to the theater half a block away. There were a few people in line. Ted took his place at the end and gradually worked his way up to the ticket window. Two down, he demanded, in his haughiest tone. The ticket man pushed the tickets out and Ted 'reached in his vest pocket for his money. He drew out fifty cents. The tickets were each seventy-five. He felt again. No, there was nothing in his vest pockets. By this time the people were impatiently asking who was blocking the line. Some of them were throwing coarse jests at him and making fun of him. Ted feverishly searched his pockets. Great beads of perspiration stood on his now crimson face. Finally he could stand it no longer and he walked sheepishly over to Marjorie. Marjorie, very embarrassed at the sight of all those people staring at her. turned her back on Ted and walked out of the lobby. Ted followed her and caught up to her. She proceeded to tell him some very uncomplimentary things. After her anger had cooled he apologized and told her that it was purely acci- dental. He offered to go home and get more money, but she would not hear to it. He then suggetsed that they go to the street dance and social that was being held at Sunnyside, a suburb of the city. They rode out on a street car, spending twelve cents of Tedis fifty. He now had thirty-eight cents. They went to the street where the dance was being held. There were a number of booths arranged on the sidewalks where various articles were being chanced off. ln one were chances for a Chevrolet car. Ted spent twenty cents and 58 SPECTATOR took a ticket. Marjorie and he met some friends and danced and had a good time for an hour. Then the auto was chanced off, and Ted, glancing at his ticket, discovered that he had won it. Marjorie was very much excited when she knew that he had the lucky number. She urged him to go up and claim it. Ted showed the man his ticket and was announced as the winner. The crowd cheered him as he climbed into the driver's seat and Marjorie got in with him. He started the car and soon they were spinning along the highway toward the city. They were very happy over the way the evening had turned out. Ted drove up to the gate of Marjorie's home and when she was going in he asked her for a date to go out in the car the next night. She consented. And Ted drove off satisfied that his first date had been a complete success. -ii P aid Back Catherine Ober, 'ZZM The hot sun of a bright summer day beat down in a burning stream on a ragged man trudging dejectedly along a dusty road. He was hungry and thirsty-fearfully so. Oh, for something to eat, and a cool refreshing drink. As he came to a turn in the road, he' caught sight of a large and Very beautiful mansion with high terraces and a path leading into a picturesque garden. He followed the path to the garden gate where he hesi- tated, then entered. On the other side of a large hedge sat an elderly couple on a bench. They caught sight of him at the same time he saw them. The elderly man rose, asking: 'iwhat do you want. Food, please, sir. l am willing to work for it. l've had nothing to eat since yesterday, he added half pleadingly. The elderly man knitted his brow and replied impatiently, 'iThe same story. You all come asking food but you don't want to work. The poor man made no reply, but turned toward the gate, when he heard the lady say, But, Robert, this poor fel- low seems honest, he is hungry and poor, and we have so much, that we can at least satisfy his hunger. Well,-since you think it best, Martha, l suppose we can at least feed him. SPECTATOR 59 So a maid was summoned, and directed to bring food to the man. When he had finished eating he came back to thank Mr. and Mrs. Gordon for their kindness. There was some- thing in his manner that aroused their curiosity, and interest. By a few well directed questions they learned that this wretched man had, at one time, been wealthy and happy. He had always confided in a man whom he thought to be his best friend. This friend later turned out to be his most bitter enemy. He was now a ruined man-ruined business and home life by his once good friend. His health broke, he then took what little means that remained to travel. He traveled till his money was exhausted, so from that time on he worked on small jobs. Now he was out of a position of any kind. But so complete was his ruin, that the man who accomplished it, had prevented his going back into the business world. And now, sir, I am willing to do any honest work, if you will give me a chance. Let us give him a chance, pleaded Mrs. Gordon. So he was given a chance-as a gardener of the estate around the old mansion. Jack, the young handsome son of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon, was without responsibility. He was an only child, always having his own way. To him, money was nothing. He had a mania for playing cards. He enjoyed them because they were exciting and the stakes were always high. Previous games showed Jack very lucky but now his luck was turning- the bills were sent to his father. They were always paid, but only after' much discussion. One day an exceptionally large bill came to Mr. Gor- don, after which jack was forbidden to play any longer. Jack passed his words with his father on heedlessly, and Went about playing as before. Three weeks later found Jack worried, wondering how he could get out of the large debt he was in now. Jack owed Jenkins, his card shark friend, a large sum of money, which was to be paid in full the following day. He dared not ask his father. What was he to do? How was he to get the money? He begged jenkins to wait, but Jenkins refused. He told Jack, that a few days before when he had called for him, he saw his father place a large roll of bills into the safe. Know the combination? asked jenkins of Jack. Jack sprang at him, What do you think l am? A thief? 60 SPECTATOR Cool down, dear friend, it's the money I'm after and if you don't get it,-well,- At this Jack drew back, white and terrified. I'll give you till one o'clock A. M. I'll wait here to get it then, said Jenkins. Their conversation took place near the hedge in the garden, and little did they think that the gardener, Old Joe, was on the other side of the hedge, weeding the garden. Old Joe thought the voice sounded familiar, but he could not see the person speaking. He heard that young Jack was in trouble, and was being forced to steal. What would his mother and father think if he would be caught? That night about one, jack decided to steal the money. He must do it quietly for the whole house was silent. He Went to the door, tried the knob, but it refused to open- it was locked! He must get out of the room, and get the money. He went to to the window, looked down from his room on the third floor. He turned away. What was he to do? In the garden behind the hedge was Jenkins impatiently Waiting. Every few minutes he looked at his Watch. Fifteen minutes past one and Jack did not appear. Where was he? The only thing left for Jenkins to do was to steal the money himself, if jack's nerve had failed him. This was very easy. lt would not be his first venture. Jenkins quickly climbed to the porch, tried the window, Which was unlocked, due to someone's carelessness, thought Jenkins. in a minute he was in the library before the safe with his Hash light, ready for work. He was startled when a voice shouted, Hands upli' and the lights flashed on. Before him stood Old Joe, the gardener, with his revolver ready, lVlr. and Mrs. Gordon watching the scene. Why, hello there, Harkins, I thought I recognized your voice the other day, cried Old Joe. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon wondered what was meant by this greeting. But Old Joe explained himself by saying: lVlr. and Mrs. Gordon, I wish you to know this man, Jenkins alias Harkins-the man, who caused my degradation and almost that of your son. All I have to say is that he shall be 'paid back', so please telephone for the police. SPECTATOR 61 John's Bear Beatrice Barclay, '22M. One evening in late September, John was going to town. He had just missed a car and knew he would not get another for fifteen minutes. He left the little station, walked up the road and sat down at the foot of a large maple tree. He had sat there a few minutes when he heard the patter of feet coming down the road. He looked up to see a strange object coming towards him in the twilight. Not knowing why, John shivered, got up and began Walking up the road. Curiosity, however, caused him to look around. Imagine his astonish- ment, when he saw, lumbering behind him, the queerest black bear he had ever seen. lts eyes seemed to change color as it looked. Its month opened and shut, showing long, sharp, whit teeth. When it saw John pause it rose on its haunches, and with its forepaws seemed to make a circle in the air, as though hugging something, at the same time the most horrible growl came from its throat. The bear advanced toward John, cutting queer, fantastic steps. For a moment John stood in the middle of the road, paralyzed with fright. Then, as the bear came nearer, his senses returned, and with a yell, he ran for his life. As he ran he heard the patter of feet behind him. Look- ing back he saw the sharp claws, the long gleaming teeth, and the wicked eyes. , ln spite of his efforts the bear gained on him. He heard low savage growls. His hair stood on end, and then, he stumbled and fell, landing headfirst in the dust. He was too stunned to move as he heard the bear growl just over his head, and felt the furry body against him. He gave a terri- fied shriek and began to kick and claw at the bear. Suddenly the bear rolled over and John heard, Say, you poor little imp, stop kicking me. l'm not going to hurt you. And John, opening his eyes, which had been tightly closed, saw above him the happy grinning face of his best friend, Jim Brown, who stood holding a huge bear skin in his arms. John looked foolish, and Jim roared with laughter. But after Jim explained that he was practicing for a circus, which his friends were giving, John forgave him and they parted closer friends than ever. 62 SPECTATOR SENIOR PLANS NAME L VOCATION I SCHOOL 4 i Rorb Armstrong Teacher lionekewenno Frances Ashcom Teacher lNormal Horace Bailey Architect Penn State Martha Bailey Beatrice Barclay John Bauerle Private Secretary Private Secretary Electrical Engineer Grove City Agnes Beenr Teacher Juniata Bessie Beerman srenogrenber Leno Berkeluile srenogropber Sera Berry Teacher Indiana Robert Bowers Electrical Engineer Clarence Bowman Music Conway's Conservatory Helen' Bowser Private Secretary Mary Brant Kindergarten Miss Inman Reb eeen Buclerman Journalist Sadie Boriernren g Stenographer Alice Clough Costume Designer John Conway l Pharmacist Philadelphia Mary Cook Dickinson Orpha Daugherty Nurse ivienroriei Hospital Raymond Davis Doctor U. of Penn.

Until this evening my companions had been most satisfactory. Not until after Thomas Neel had left for home did I realize his valuable friendship, and I was overcome with a desire for human friendship. The next morning I took my horse and departed from the wilderness to return to civilization after ten long years. I arrived at the railway station and noticed a building which looked as thought I might leave my horse until I returned. On entering I recognized Anna Blough, the stenographer for the Collins-Cherry Company. I then left for Johnstown. Arriving in the city I took a bus and traveled along a spacious avenue. On both sides were beautiful mansions. From the remarks of the passengers I saw the magnificent home of Ned Stutzman, the great naturalist, and Floyd Waters. of the Consolidated Toothpick Company, also that of Robert Bowers of the United States Senate. I found my knowledge of the town uncertain so I inquired the direction of the hotel. I registered and found the clerk to be Lena Berkebile. In the lobby I chanced upon Louise Reed. She discussed the progress of a few classmates. She told me Rex Woods and Carrol Hamilton had entered the ministry, also that Lillian Fye had attained an enviable repu- tation in composing classical music. As we were talking a gentleman approached whom I recognized as Kennth Mc- Means. We talked a little while then Kenneth and Louise departed. Later as I sat in the smoking room, an elderly looking man entered. It was Edson Wissinger. I attracted his atten- tion and we soon renewed our acquaintance. He told me he was leaving for Japan to which country he had recently been appointed ambassador and he asked me to join him. The next morning found us in the transcontinental land- ing station in Elton enroute to San Diego. After many hours of travel we arrived safe. We were viewing the city when I was attracted by a group of women on a large veranda. Almost instantly I rec- 66 SPECTATOR ognized them as old classmates. They were Edna Scott, Catherine Ober, Helen Bowser, Eleanor lVlolitor and Marie Schenkemeyer. After explaining their wonderful prosperity they told me of an unusual circumstance, that Florence Saylor, Catherine Stager and Ruth Hines were now successful auto- mobile mechanics. l looked for Edson only to find him in a nearby park talking to Irene Weis, Hilda Harrington, Ruth Armstrong and the Gold Dust Twins -Charles Smith and John Reed. The twins being of the same genial nature they had shown in school, invited us to dine with them, but we could not, as we had to leave for San Francisco. We traveled by auto-bus, and all along the road we could see some display of the ability of former classmate. The most notable of these being the large observation tower of Charles Stahl. His name was known all over the country as the scientist who was attempting to overcome the power of gravity in order to make a visit to the moon. Arriving in San Francisco we made preparations for our journey to Japan. At the steamship office l found Gerald Holsinger and Beatrice Barclay. They told us of the responsi- ble positions they held in this company. With them we went to call on Gladys Zubrod and Francis Ashcom, now practicing law. They invited us to accompany them to the court house. With them we entered the courtroom. Here they pointed out John Baurle as policeman and the judge as Vallie Lengyel. The trial began. We received the surprise of our lives when the judge announced that Robert lVlclVleans had brought a charge of assault and battery against Ray Harshberger. With john Conway as attorney for Mr. lVlclVleans and Horace Bailey for Mr. Harshberger, the trial was conducted rapidly, and the jury returned a verdict of guilty. The judge sentenced lVlr. Harshberger to settle all expenses and buy a Coco-Cola for each of the jurors as a sign of renewed friendship. Gladys pointed out some members of the jury as Martha Bailey, Sara Warren, Alice Clough, Sara Berry, and Madaline Evans. She explained, however, that they had all changed their names thru a matrimonial process. We were sorry we had to leave our friends so soon but we had to board our stearner. As we were walking thru the crowd l recognized Julia Stuckey and Edith Resley, who were on their way to Hawaii. SPECTATOR 67 We arrived on board the good ship Tomato Can. On all sides cameras were recording the departure of my distin- guished traveling companion, the ambassador to Japan. On my first coming on deck, l recognized Charles Sak- mar in the officers' quarters but his duties were too exacting for him to talk with us. Two days out our ship came to a little island where we stopped for fuel. Edson and l landed and were attracted by a crowd of natives around a speaker. Com- ing closer, l found Brandon Rhodehamel teaching these can- nibals Darwin's Theory of Evolution. With him he had a strong body guard--James Hanson, Raymond Keller and the red-headed wonder, Russel Miles. We returned to the ship satisfied that we had landed. It was now evening and we learned that the officers were to give a dance in honor of their distinguished passenger. The whole ship was in a spirit of merry-making. I walked thru the crowd here and there chancing upon tourists, among whom I found Pauline Thomas, Emma Custer, Harold Harenburg, Eleanor Ferner, Evelyn Steele and Ruth Wissinger. The captain, who by the way was Phillip Miller, came down from his quarters and entertained us by accounts of his twenty suc- cessful trips across the Pacific. After the sbip reached the Japanese port Edson and l were viewing the city from the deck when two young ladies spoke to us. Edson recognized them as Mildred Barnhart and Lillie Rhen. We talked for a time, when two men entered. They were formally introduced as lVlildren's and Lillie's hus- bands. The next day when we left the ship crowds of people were ready to greet the new ambassador. On every side were newspaper correspondents among whom l recognized as Joe Walling, Albert Seihl, Nathaniel Griffiths, Nathan Kline. The govern.mental escort made up of notable statesmen conducted us to our hotel. While the duties of Edson held him in his office, l spent my time viewing the sights about the city. l was not Hsight-seeing long before l found that the western fads had arrived in Japan. From a sign reading James 8: James Co. I found that Robert and Donald james had gone into partnership and bought a confectionery store, shoe shine parlor, and peanut roaster. A little farther l found Wilbur Stuver practicing medicine and was very successful. l-le told me that the Standard Oil 68 SPECTATOR Company had its offices just on the outskirts of the city, and employed some people from the class, Esther Fyock, Katherine Hawkins, Orpha Daugherty as stenographers. I left Wilbur and returned to the hotel, where I found Edson absorbed in a story written by Evelyn Nelson. As soon as I entered he began to praise the literary ability of the writer, and leafing thru the magazine, he pointed out another good article written by Kathryn Gocher, an author of growing reputation. The artistic appearance of the cover attracted my attention and on exami- nation I found it had been designed by Mary Cook. After several weeks in Japan I decided to return to the United States, arriving safely. On my way across the conti- nent I stopped off at Chicago, where I met Dr. Park Shaffer, Mabel Heaney, and Helen Wallace. The girls informed us that their voices had been their fortunes for they were singing in grand opera. We walked past a political meeting and recognized Mary Brant electioneering for City Council with Sadie and Rebecca Buderman as her campaign managers. Here also we met Pryce Buchanan and Clarence Bowman, the talented cornetist. Leaving the meeting we passed a large radio broadcasting station belonging to Edward Hahn. I-Ie had very efficient workers under his employ, among them being Robert Jones, Cathryn Ford, Glenrose Hankeson, Eva Harshberger, Rose Reisman and Bessie Beerman. We found ourselves now on the outskirts of the city and Park suggested we take a trolley. As we were seating our- selves I recognized Raymond Davis and he told us that he had met success in life and that he was now high chief of all the schools in Chicago and had several of the classmates as members of the faculty being Margarita Giglotti, Ethel Mae Keen, Kathleen Kern, Orpha Daugherty, Eleanor Ferner, and Eleanor Driggs. We had to get off the car at the station to catch the next train. I decided I would return to my home in the Canadian mountains well satisfied with my trip so far as meeting old acquaintances was concerned. Parks train came a few min- utes before mine so we parted once more, wishing each other the greatest success and happiness. From Chicago it was but a short jump back to my Canadian recluse, and so, satisfied that no class had ever made such rapid strides as had those classmates of mine and content SPECTATOR 69 that there was a promise of even a greater future for 'ZZM and its additions I returned to the Canadian woods there by a fire replenished with golden memories of the past to dream the long nights through.

Time, the manager, has said we disband tonight and oh what a wealth of meaning that command carries to each of us bound for so many years together in common interest. Every act of the Great Drama has its cycle and we its actors are continually learning the philosophy of it. Even as we crowded out, four years ago, the popular review of that day, so we today are being crowded out by the Review of 'ZZM-'25M, which is the cycle of tomorrow. Fate, our audience, is fickle, with heart of stone she will not be changed. As individuals we have had parts, of varying importance, in the Review but after all the play's the thing and we were all for one and one for all whether in rehearsal or on the road. There has come a certain reluctance now to leave the old order of things, to break away from those who have been our associates in the various episodes which have contributed to the Review. Out in front the electrics Hash the names of the stars, the more prominent names of the company. All the world knows who is being starred tonight and yet-back in the chorus there are those for whom success yet waits and there are those who are even now in preparation for a Review on the Big Time. The Review of ' l SM-'ZZMH is proud of its actors and proud of its scenic artists who have been able to create the big scenes which have made our review famous. And yet what a multitude of bigger scenes, of greater characterizations are promised in the Reviews to come-for that is the rule of the Great White Way called Life. Bankers, lawyers, soldiers, nurses, doctors, a host of them all to form a part of the coming Reviews. Here we have the President of the United States stepping from the humble chorus and the one timid songbird stepping out as an oper- atic prima donna. This is the promise of press agents Ambi- tion and Fortune, for the future. And now as the last curtain falls, as the plaudits of our audience are echoed across the footlights to the company back - 1 SPECTATOR ss stage, we come to that last and hardest word in the lines of any actor: Farewell Stout hearts, brave hearts and merry hearts falter as they halt in the last salute-a tender salute to 'Z2M,its colors and its members-may we ever to our colors holcl true. B. F. R., '22M. SPECTATOR 91 School News The Pep Club, which was organized during the football season, recently elected new officers. The results of the election were as follows: President, Spear Sheridan, Vice- President, Emory Kristoffg Secretary, James Donahue, Treas- urer, Wilbur Mcl-lenryg Sergeant-at-Arms, John Grady.

A. meeting of the Term VIII class was held in 304, De- cember I4, l922. The class banner was displayed to the class for the first time. The class discussed a number of prob- lems relative to graduation, among which was the Baccalaure- ate sermon and whether or not caps and gowns would be worn. The Baccalaureate sermon will be preached by Reverend Snyder at the First Lutheran Church and caps and gowns will be worn at graduation as usual. This Senior Class, like all previous Senior Clases, is look- ing forward to having the best Senior Chapel Exercises ever held. Among other entertaining features, the program will include a one-act satire entitled By Ourselvesf, This play was Written by Ludwig Fulda. The cast is as follows: Dr. Felix Volkart, physician, Edson Wissingerg l-lermine, his Wife, Sara Berryg Baron Herbert von Berkow, Albert Siehlg Bauman, a servant, Charles Sakmarg Lotte, lady's-maid, Eleanor Ferner.

The Term VIII students, taking English the third period, were given a short talk by one of the Alumni, James Resley. He is a graduate of the 'ZOM class and is now studying Dra- matic Art at Carnegie Tech. As the Senior Class is now studying plays and playwrights, his talk of his work at school was of much interest. During the week following the Christmas holidays many graduates returned to visit their Alma Mater. Among these visitors were many of the old Editors of the Spectator. Those who visited the school are as follows: James Resley, Stewart Gocher, John Mcl-lugh, John McWilliams, james Rishell, Guy Volpitto, Dwight Berkebile, Dorothy Wilder, Ada Prit- ner, Helen McCall, Jane Gore, Gladys Bantly, Sara Ann Moore, Ruth Korns, Florence Korns, Zelma Stanton, Elizabeth Wicks, Anita Tredenick, Louis Friant, Ignatius Cunningham, George Strehler, and many other college students. We were very glad to see them again and hope they will continue to take interest in their Alma Mater. HERE! rfusveu, .

SPECTATOR 97 Athletics The Football Season The Johnstown High School Football Squad had a rough and stormy season, but when it is called to mind that they have played the hardest schedule ever attempted by a local high school team they have done remarkably well. No little credit is due Mr. Green. The team worked under handi- caps this season due to the fact that most of the old players graduated last spring or have gone to other schools. The team won more games than it lost which is creditable when we consider that they were under the leadership of a new coach and had new men on their team. The atmosphere created this season in our high school by those who had some hard feelings was anything but encouraging to the team, and it made the work much harder for all those connected with the football campaign. If there is anything needed in this high school it is a feel- ing of co-operation on part of the students in making the general public feel that the Johnstown High School Team is their team upon which their boys play and that it is up to them to boost it. The football team has never had a cleaner record than it has this season. Never before have local teams displayed better behavior, never before have we had a finer group of players. Our coach tried to keep his team clean. The value of his teaching will in time tell upon the brand of foot- ball we play. A clean team this year will be the foundation of strong teams in the future. And though we did not win every game it must be re- membered that the team was young and that they worked under difficulties which could not be helped. ,,, .l...i-- JOHNSTOWN HIGH BASKETBALL TEAM DEFEATS WESTMONT The basketball team defeated the Westmont High School Team in the first game of the season by a score of 27 to 20. Both teams displayed close guarding and the game was re- markable in that Westmont scored but one field goal and most of the scores were made by foul shooting. 98 SPECTATOR The line-up: Johnstown 27 Westmont 20 Kline ................... ............

I. When we as Freshmen came to school, We never broke a single ruleg We always did our lessons right, And always kept our books in sight. We never were the least hit late, Our notebooks were always up to date. Our English themes were always in, We studied so that we'd win. We never talked, nor dared chew gum, And at our teachers' calls we'd come. II. When we as Sophs the second year, Returned to school, ourselves to cheer, The change in us was somewhat marked. Along the halls ourselves We parked, We wrote on the desks and lost our booksg The girls thought of nothing but their looks. They primped, they powdered, they bobbed their hair The boys asked for dates from the ladies fairg The teachers were shocked and told us so, But we dicln't care-we were on the go. III. ln our Junior year, we were all puffed out, Wednesday Chapel! was the shout. I-lair was put up and trousers were lengthened, We were proud and our power we strengthened. We grew careless and were late for our classes, Social functions we'd attend in great masses. SPECTATOR 10 Class meetings we held, and argued at Will, We talked and giggled and wouldn't keep still. Each day some one a period would skip, And then pay homage to a 3:20 slip. IV. At last as Seniors we came into our own, We never took any lessons home, We were too dignified to raise any fuss, If things didn't go just right for us. We thought that the sun ought never to set, Unless our consent it first would get. We were so proud of the girls in the class, Who, on the honor roll, the boys, did pass. And so with my story, I must close, And in the Spectator with others, this goes. nl quite assure you that all this is so, For, l, as a member, ought to know. J. H. S., 'ZZM Our Class Just turn a page, not only half, It is the honorable class of '22M, A lawyer bright, a dancer fair, A pianist with her technique rare. A doctor with such marvelous skill, An orator, Whose tongue can thrill. An athlete who is known to fame, A citizen with a brilliant name. A nurse, who is known to cheer, An artist who has known no peer. An author crowned with happiness, A poet, who has no love for dress, A teacher, too, of all that's good. A singer, much sweeter than a a bird. You doubt it? There, don't laugh, Please watch the class of '22M. . H. M. H., 'ZZM '221A5. I-lere's to our class of '22M, We're full of pep, and good looks a-plenty, There's only one thing that gives us sorrow, When it comes to boys, Weill have to borrow. R. M. H., 'Z2M. 02 SPECTATOR A Senior's Waming Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and all, Be ready to answer your teachers' call. Take home your books and do your work, Never from your lessons shirkg Don't be late or talk out loucl, Don't chew gum, don't act proudg Never say yes when you should say no.' Never giggle and never be slow. Do your problems without a growl, Take things as they come and do not howl, Hand in your notebooks on the very day, Never have very much to sayg Aim to make A's, aim to make B's , From your report card banish all E's . If all these things you try to do, Your teachers will be good to you. J. H. S., 'ZZM When big and tall am l, And to the Alumni l'll belong, To be back in dear old High, They'll say I'll pine and long. But looking at it now, When everything is blue or black, l really don't know how I'l1 ever want to come back. A Freshie SPECTATOR 103 Alumni Otes The holiday vacation brought the return of scores of Alumni who are away at various schools and colleges. The occasion was marked by an unusually large number of social events given by and for them. The Johnstown Bucknell Club held their second annual Christmas dance December 21, The Open Hearth, an organization composed of University of Pennsylvania students, held their annual formal dance Dec. 26, while the Wilson College Club entertained with a dance December 28. ln addition to the above, several reunions were held, while a number of dinners and entertainments in homes were given. 1904 1907 1910 Notes From the Class --lVlrs.

M Madison and the University Brandon Rhoclehamel, 'ZZW 'iFour limpid lakes, four Naiades Or sylvan deities are these, ln flowing robes of azure dressedg Four lovely handmaids that uphold, Their shining mirrors rimmed with gold, To the fair city of the west. , -Longfellow. Thus Longfellow in his beautiful tribute to The Four Lakes of Madison expresses the feelings of the traveler who enters that fair city of the West, lingers to marvel and departs singing the praises of the Badger capital. Nor was the writer, journeying there as the Spectator representative to the Third Annual Convention of the Central lnterscholastic Press Association, immune to the witchery of the .sun-kissed, 'moon- bathed lakes of sylvan beauty. I shall pass over the portion of my visit which had to do with the business of the convention and from time to time shall merely touch on convention instances which will give the reader an insight into Madison and the University. There- fore, not content to lose one precious moment of our stay, accompanied by Las Vegas, a convention-found cousin of mine, and the Editor of Canton High School paper, I set out, that night to explore Madison. s sPscTAToR g Perhaps it is not always best to judge a city by its night life or by its shadows but e'er our nocturnal exploration had been completed awe had passed the King's Approval on both. Nor were we to regret our decision by the mornings light, as will be seen. Down the shaded avenues, tree-lined, we made our way, while off to the right of us the campus bell chimed the passing hours. Here was a brightly lighted sorority house and there a frat house from the interior of which was wafted upon the evening breeze the strains of, dance music. The spirit of the holiday season seemed to have indeed enveloped the life of the University. Urging on our footsteps from sights so pleasing we en- tered the business section--the center of lVladison's night life. Madison is planned along the lines of our own National Capi- tal. The center of the city is the state capitol building, around which are the leading shops and the palaces of mirth. From the four corners of the square the four avenues branch out and these, as they lengthen, are interspersed by avenues of greater beauty. . We turned the corners of the square, viewing with in- terest the displays in the shop windows. Strange to say the majority of the displays did not pertain to the needs of the housevvife or of the wage-earner, but rather the majority invited the patronage of the maid and man who were dancing away the merry hours at the University. It is always this way in Madison-everyone awaits the pleasure of the University. Hitherto we had delayed our footsteps that we might witness the last show at the Orpheum-the variety house. It was at this show, we were led to understand, the university crowd attended and when, at nine o'clock, we entered the door of the theatre, brushing shoulder to shoulder with the campus citizenry, we were glad that we had delayed. Never before have l seen a theatre which was so small yet so beautiful. The very tone of it was beauty, harmony, and scintillating luxury. A grand staircase led to the balcony and there, in seats admirably located, we witnessed a per- formance most enjoyable, for the magnificent price of twenty- five cents. Indeed, let me say here that Madison prices are made to Ht the pocketbook of the student. On the return trip, we stopped for a midnight lunch at Sporty's Dugout which is really the rendezvous of college stu- SPECTATOR 9 dents at all hours and which became ours eier our stay was over. Assailed by the most appetizing odors we answered the jovial challenge in the slogan Try to get in, and after they are in admonishes them with this statement: lf you don't like your wife's cooking, don't get a divorce. Eat here and keep her for a pet. Needless to say, it seemed that many were obeying to the letter the sage words of Shorty, a six-foot-six giant of jovial good nature. He who has dug into the food at Shorty's Dugout can never do other than sing the praises of the place wherever he goes. Everything is homemade, reasonably priced, and served with a portion of the great heart of Shorty. Back at the frat house we enjoyed the hospitality and fun typical of houses of this nature. indeed, every man is his own king and every man joins in the fun. In the parlor we amused ourselves with various victrola selections as we examined the House Trophies. ln the midst of this we were startled by a crash followed by the loud singing of our friends of the second floor followed by the answering chorus of the third floor. This we came to appreciate aslthe nightly.sere- nade. Later we retired to our beds in the extremely cold sleeping room where heavy covers are the only friend and were lulled to sleep by the music of an orchestra playing for the dancers in a house down the avenue. ln the morning mingling with the first class students we made our way to the campus from which we were to be con- ducted on a tour by a 'lman from Cook's so to speak, for one of the Seniors served in that capacity. The college is built on a section of rolling hill country and paths cross and recross in a pleasing sight. The main buildings of the university form the sides of the campus. There is Biology Hall, South Hall, North Hall, Main Hall, Music Hall and a smaller hall the name of which I do not recall. The buildings are new and beautiful in their architec- ture. At the top of the campus is Main Hall, flanked by North and South Halls-the latter the center of journalism. Before the Main Hall is an imposing statue of Lincoln behind which broad steps lead up to the building. It is here that the open air mass meetings are held. Beyond the campus a winding path leads to the Observa- tory, and Lathrop Hall-the recreation center--lies just over 10 SPECTATOR the hill. Everywhere the ground is dotted with plates com- memorating some event or indicating the camping ground of Indian tribes' which at one time frequented this locality. Perhaps the greatest center of interest at the University is Lake Mendota, twenty-eight miles around and on which and in which something is going on at all seasons of the year. At the time of our visit the waters of Mendota were raging with all the fury that was in it and the wind was blowing wintry blasts across the waters, inland. At this time, also, along the banks the fellows were taking in the canoes and small boats and getting ready for the winter sports 'on the lake. Encompassed by these preparations for winter it was my one regret that l could not linger for the inauguration of the winter sports. In winter there is tobogganing and skiing on the hillsides and on the icy surface of the lake skating and iceboating are the rule. Across the lake in the low hills those who are interested in hunting indulge in that sport. ln the summer the lake again monopolizes the field of sports. Swimming and boating occupy the water enthusiasts. On land, the time after college hours is spent in various games and archery contests. The most enoyable recreation during this period of the year, however, is riding along the bridlepaths which are so numerous in the outlying sections of the town. V The last place of interest is the residential section of the University. Outside of two dormitories for women there are no others--all students boarding in the town or staying in the frat and sorority houses. These houses front the lake and have each their own pier. They are indeed places of beauty. ln conclusion, may l hope that succeeding editors may enjoy the same good fortune as I by attending the conven- tions of the C. l. P. A. in the future and may the Spectator profit by the report of each of its representatives. SPECTATQOR 11 The Accident Agnes Hartnett, '23 Constance Donnely and Jim Norton were Hjust married and as the term implies they regarded each other with the utmost devotion. They had scarcely been married four months, however, before their happiness was shattered. Jim had secured a position with a reliable firm at a salary of two hundred dollars a month. But his repeated attentions to the good-looking office assistants was a source of annoy- ance to Constance. On the other hand, Jim had learned that Constance was not all the dream-girl he had imagined her to be. Upon returning home unexpectedly one day he had found her face carefully hidden beneath a mass of cold cream which her hair was bound in wire curlers. It was a great shock to know that the golden waves were not natural and that the beautiful complexion was the result of careful creaming. Previous to their marriage Constance had placed Jim on a pedestal above ordinary men. It was, therefore, with a gasp of dismay that she realized he was like the rest, rather selfish and decidedly careless in his habits around the house. Their matrimonial affairs slowly drifted from bad to worse. While they were both keenly aware that all was not as it should be, they failed to realize that tragedy seemed almost inevitable. One sunny afternoon, as Constance reclined in a wicker chair, her mind began to visualize things as they had been and she was suddenly filled with a pang of regret. She con- cluded that Fate was dealing unkindly with her and decided to forget her sorrows by going down town. After she completed her toilet she regarded her reflec- tion in the mirror and her look of pride was certainly justified. With her golden hair and appealing blue eyes she was naturally good looking and the white sport costume she had put on emphasized her beauty. i She locked the doors and within a half hour of her departure, found herself a part of the busy throng hurrying in and out of the shops and thru the city streets. A Completely absorbed in her thoughts, she started to cross a street just as a huge truck, at the cornerman's signal, moved 12 SPECTATOR swiftly forward. The driver saw Constance too late to avert hitting her and she was rushed to the hospital in an uncon- scious condition. The nurses and doctors worked feverishly till their efforts were rewarded by a low cry of pain from the patient. When Constance became fully conscious, the author- ities learned her identity and quickly notified Jim of the acci- dent. Jim grabbed his hat and hurrying into the street hailed a taxicab and gave the driver orders to reach the hospital as soon as possible. ' Jimis mind, however, was traveling faster than the taxi for with a sigh of regret he realized how unfair he had been to his little wife lately. And now she might be dying, possibly she was whispering his name with a last dying effort. Jim squared his shoulders but tears came annoyingly to the surface. The driver startled him from his reverie by bringing the car to an abrupt stop. He was rewarded with a five dollar bill and Jim fairly flew into the hospital. Within five minutes he entered the room which contained his beloved Constance. The doctor, being human, cautioned him to be quiet and then found another patient requiring his attention. Jim hurried to the little form on the bed and leaning over her whispered tenderly, Connie girl, it's Jim. She gazed at him out of exceptionally clear, blue eyes. ln a minute Jim was asking for forgiveness, and when Connie had smilingly granted it, he informed her that she was the darlingest little wife into which God had ever put the breath of life. Jim kissed her and her sigh was one of peace and con- tentment. Girls, Past and Present Jean McDougall, '23 According to our mothers, grandmothers, and maiden aunts, the girls of yesterday must have been paragons of virtue and modesty. How familiar we are with the ex- pressions, Uln my day , or When I was young, girls did or did not-. There seems to be a particular outcry against the girl of today. She is accused of extravagance, immodesty, frivolity and said to be entirely without ideals. To some extent these charges are undoubtedly true, but only in so far as a mm SPECTATOR 13 general laxness seems to be the tendency of the time, and we maintain that in this laxness, the modern girl is no more to blame than her elders. There are those who say that this slackness or negligence is the aftermath of war and that it is a temporary condition. The girls in all probability like to believe this. Let us grant that it is so. But is there not danger in it? Unless the girls do all in their power to check the surging tide, it may overwhelm them and do permanent in- jury. It is incumbent, therefore, upon the girls of the present to clear themselves of such condemnation by revealing their better qualities,-for they have them,-their ideals, in order that they may prove themselves worthy of the duties which lie before them., where as women grown and responsible, they must lead and inspire others. A We insist that, in spite of the apparent frivolity and heedlessness, the modern girl does have aspirations in the nature of ideals. It is natural that youth should frolic and dance, for youth is the playtime of life. It is natural though not creditable, that they should thoughtlessly seize any sort of amusement that is offered to them-and the world is offering them much that is not worthy -even if it takes the form of jazz and extreme dancing. Let us hope that these are, as it has been said, the manifestations of hysteria that follows the tension of war, an hysteria that will kill itself. However, we must remember that this death will come sooner if the girls themselves assist in the greatly- to-be-desired consummation. ln the quest for pleasure they must not go to the extremes, must not cultivate a taste for boisterous, unlady-like amusement. They must not allow am- bition to be lessened or ideals to .be dimmed, for they, the girls of today, will be the women and builders of to-morrow. The American Beauty ' Edith ons, '23 ' Kathleen O'l-lara was alone for the first time in her seven- teen years of life. just one week ago her grandfather, her companion as well as parent, had been taken from her. When she was a small child both her parents had been drowned on their way to this country and she and her brother had been left to the care of their grandfather. He had taken the children to a quaint little Irish settlement not far from New 14 SPECTATOR York City and here he had brought them up, educating them in his own manner. In 1914, when the cries of the nations of Europe reached America, Tommy O'I-Iara had returned to Ireland and had joined the Irish Dragoons. Since that time neither Kathleen nor her grandfather had had any word from him. Two years had passed since Kathleen had come to the city and in that time she had become secretary to Lawyer Mackensie. It seems a long time since I came her, lVlr. Mackensielu exclaimed Kathleen. Two whole years. You see when grandfather died he told me to come to Lawyer Mackensie in New York to settle his affairs. I don't know what idea grandfather had as to how I would make my living nor do I know what would have become of me if you hadn't helped me. Never mind, Kahleen, never mind. There are always opportunities for those who take advantage of them. Mr. Nlackensie walked toward the window of his office and Kathleen resumed her work. The noise of Wall Street traffic reached their ears. Immense signs confronted them on every glance at the outside world. Except for this the office of John Mackensie was quiet and as gloomy as the falling winter dusk. Dadl The exclamation startled the quiet and out of the dark doorway came a tall youth of perhaps twenty-two. ' My boy! were the only words that John Mackensie could utter as he gripped his son's hand tightly. Gee, Dad, it's great to be back. But say, why so startled? Didn't you expect me? I wired you that I would be here! For an hour the father and son sat talking, utterly uncon- cerned as to their surroundings and all the while Kathleen was the silent auditor. Oh, it was so interesting, so thrilling, all these war time experiences. Going to the front line, being captured, escaping, wounded, and then the long fight for life. Through it all Bob made continual reference to his beautiful companionship with an Irish Dragoon. Dad, he was great! Bob announced. He shared every experience of mine but his pull for life was unsuccess- ful. SPECTATOR 15 Oh! It was the low cry of Kathleen. Could-could you tell me his name, I mean your young Irish friend? she asked. Bob was silent for a minute, studying her all the while. He was your brother, he finally answered slowly. I know it by the picture of you that he gave me. Will you tell me more of-of Tommy, sometime? she asked softly. It did not take John Nlackensie long to note that young Bob was at the office promptly at closing time each evening. Nor did he ever fail to find Bob with Kathleen if he perchance wanted him. Their friendship had grown out of their love for Tom. One evening Bob was telling Kathleen of Tom's last experience. He knew he was 'going West', he said, so he gave me this to bring to you. . From his pocket he brought out a letter and a brooch in form of a miniature American Beauty. Kathleen opened the letter eagerly. Dear Kathleenzn it began. 'Tm afraid I'l1 not be home again. Gee, l'd like to set foot on good old U. S. A. but they got me the last time. Bob will tell you all, Kathleen. l know you'll like him. Ask Grandad to forgive me for running off. It was an experience any fellow would give his life for. Goodby, Kathleen, I love you and Grandadf' Tommy. UP. S. l gave Bob the American Beauty brooch. It was mother's you remember. Take care of it. Kathleen looked from the letter to the brooch in Bob's hand. lt-was my father's wedding present to mother, she said softly. May it be mine to you? he asked as he put it in her hand. 16 SPECTATOR ,Further lncidents of My Trip to Cali- fornia With the 6th District Rotary Special J. Earl Opperman, '23 We arrived at Los Angeles, California, from Riverside, at 1:30 P. M., Pacific Time, or 9:30 A. M. Eastern Time. Members of the Los Angeles Rotary Club were at the station to welcome us and take us to our hotels in their cars. Our hotel, the Ambassador, is in the residential section ofthe city and we passed through some very beautiful parks and past some very fine looking residences on our way there. l was a little disappointed in Los Angeles as I had expected it to be level and close to the sea-shore. Instead it is about thirty miles from the ocean. The central part of the city is more hilly than Johnstown. The suburbs- are the same. The next morning, Tuesday, June the sixth, we went into town to the Philharmonic Auditorium where the sessions of the Thirteenth Annual Convention of Rotary International were held and attended the first session. ln the afternoon we took a drive to Pasadena, which is a short distance from Los Angeles. There we saw many beautiful homes and gardens. Many rich people have their offices in Los Angeles but live in Pasadena. William Wrigley, Jr., the chewing gumlking, has a very fine home there. ln the evening l explored the hotel and found it to be a small town in itself, having a moving-picture theatre, auto- mobile sales rooms, antique stores, drugstores, beauty parlors, and stores with the latest fashions from Paris, both in dresses and millinery. Outside, the hotel has spacious grounds of broad lawns bordered with beds of flowers that bloom the year round and dotted with huge palms. In the morning and evening scores of blackbirds darken the lawns which are kept damp throughout the day by sprinklers. The main dining room, which is also the ball room, is almost as long as the high-school building and as wide. It has an arched ceiling. The flower boxes at each window and small palm trees on either side of the windows, are a sharp contrast to the whiteness of the walls and ceiling. S P E C T A T O R 17 Wednesday, june the seventh, we saw a very pretty pageant in the auditorium. A representative of every nation that was represented at the convention had some part in this pageant T ' The Presidenfs Ball was held that evening at the Am- bassador Hotel. That was some ball! All Rotariansand their wives who were in Los Angeles at the time attended. , ,x ,, The next day we went out to Catalina Island, which is owned by Wm. Wrigley, Jr. The island, is about thirty miles from the coast of San Pedro, the harbor for Los Angeles. It takes about two hours to make the trip, one way. This was my first experience on an ocean going steamer and I felt queer for a while. The island is a very pretty little place. Wrigley has a two million dollar mansion on top of a hill over-looking the.village'and the harbor. There are two 18 SPECTATOR hotels on the island. We had luncheon, a plain, but good, sea-food meal, at the St. Catherine Hotel. About the only attraction that I could see was the glass-bottom boats. They took us up along the shore of the island where, the water was not so deep so that we could see the fish and sea-weeds as plainly as if they were in a fish bowl at home. One of the crew explained the different kinds of sea-weed and a diver, who stayed under the water about three minutes, brought up several shells and some kind of a fish, the name of which I have forgotten, This fish looks like a cucumber. It is soft like a sponge before it is caught but as soon as the diver picks it up it gets hard. During the daytime it hides, feeding only at night. f S Friday we went to Long Beach and visited some people who lived in Johnstown at one time. They showed us the town. On a hill south of the city but still in the city limits oil has been discovered and in a year there are several hun- dred oil wells spoiling the appearance of what was at one time a beautiful residential section. Saturday, our last day in Los Angeles, was taken up by a trip to the Hollywood Motion-Picture Studios. We went through the Roberts and Cole Studios and the Fairbanks- Pickford Studios. We saw Doug Fairbanks making a scene for Robin Hood. The settings for Robin Hood were as realistic as if they really were some old castle over in England. The Rotary Club of Los Angeles served lunch to their guests in the Hollywood Bowl, a natural ampitheatre in the hills near Hollywood. ln the afternoon we were introduced to several movie stars including, Harold Lloyd, Mabel Nor- mand, Mary Miles Minter and others whom l do not remem- ber. They had a very nice display of day-light fireworks for our entertainment. Our train left early so we could not stay to see the whole program. The Special took the shore route to San Francisco. The track runs right along the sea shore most of the way up the coast. After dark it was a very pretty scene, a full-moon shining over the quiet Pacific and tents of campers outlined at irregular distances along the beach. A concrete road follows the railroad all the way up the coast. lt was a relief to see water and mountains after passing over the desert the week before. The next morning when we were about SPECTATOR 19 fifteen miles from Frisco our engine went dead and we had to wait two hours till another came to our rescue. We arrived in San Francisco about noon. The San Francisco Rotary Club served a buffet luncheon in the Palace Hotel. They then took us for a drive around the city. We visited the grounds of the Centennial Exposition, held in 1900. We went through Colden Gate Park and stopped for a few minutes at the Cliff House where we saw a few seals on the seal rocks. The site of the proposed bridge across the Golden Gate is also visible from this point. Our drive took us to other points of interest in the city, including Chinatown. The Chinatown of San Francisco looks the same as the rest of the town except that the signs are in Chinese instead of English. We have all heard about the wonderful climate of San Francisco, that it does not rain there except once or twice during our winter months. Well, the Rotarians had the laugh on the Californians even if it did spoil our visit, because the weather was foggy and raining We left the Special here at San Francisco and visited relatives in Oakland, across the bay from San Francisco. During the following three weeks we made several trips across the bay to San Francisco. On one of these trips we went to the sea-shore, near the Cliff-House with the intention of bathing in the surf, but we discovered that the people do not bathe there as they do at Atlantic City because the water is entirely too cold. l do not like San Francisco or Oakland because during our stay the weather was foggy and cold half of the timle. Of course if we speak to a San Franciscan we will not hear a word about rain because to them the sun shines 360 days out of the 365. If overcoats are worn in the evenings in summer time, we wonder what they are wear- ing now, that winter has come. It is a common sight to see fur coats any time at all in San Francisco and Oakland. After all I think the climate of good old Johnstown is the best. 20 SPECTATOR Principals Page ' To The Freshmen The Freshmen class that entered High School January 29, l923, is the largest class that has ever enrolled at mid- term.. We hope that the achievements of this class will be commensurate with 'its size. We can think of no better advice to give to these two hundred, seventy-five boys and girls than to remember that the present is the past of your future . Some day you may look back on the present, which will then be your past, and may you be able to say, l have taken advantage of every opportunity, have utilized wisely all my time, have supported every movement which was for the betterment of my school. I have been a good school citizen. l have had four profitable and happy years in the Johnstown High School. My suggestions carry the weight of years of experience, and l cannot urge too strongly that you, the Seniors of the future, work enthusiastically for all the organizations of your school as well as for the honors of scholarship. May the boys of this class show their parents and other citizens of our city that boys, too, have ability and that they can and will share equally with the girls the honors of the class of I925M. ' Boys and girls of the class of l925M, start right. Make the first recitation count. Do sufficient home work to pass each subject. If you find that you cannot carry four solids creditably, drop one. To pass from day to day gives confidence, accumulative strength. It means success. Failure in -recitations means discouragement, lack of confidence and self. respect, trouble in school, and disappointment to mother and father, and finally a Nquitterff It is far better to carry but three subjects and pass them than to carry four and fail one. Let this be your slogan, 'il will pass every subject, every month 'for the four years.

Aside from this encouraging fact, the school, as a whole, has been a success, in the real sense of the word. This achieve- ment, both in scholarship and school activities, made possible by the co-operation of all the students, should intensify the desire of everyone to make good in this new term. Each organization in school, as well as each student, now has a chance to remedy the faults of the past and start afresh. Will we do it? Now is the time to begin! The new term lies ahead, its rosy outline appearing faintly in the dim shadows of the future. It is clean, free from all blots and errors. Shall we keep it so? For the honor of the school, we must. To stop, when at the beginning of a record of high standards, would be foolish, and disastrous to the name and reputation of Johnstown High School. Let us make every day, every hour, every minute, count. Let us all strive to do our best, in the best possible way, that the standards of our school may be so high, that each class to come will have to work to reach them. It is a mighty big task, but if we wish to keep the reputation of our school, we' must do it! --W. iVlcH. Our Music Department Because music promotes co-operation, should we not do all in our power to stimulate interest in our music department in high school? The present student body is exceedingly proud of its musi- cal activities, it will require no encouragement to persuade the upper classmen to take interest in the orchestra, glee clubs, band, and music classes. But the incoming Freshmen and Sophomores may not understand or be so deeply interested. m SPECTATOR 23 To them we appeal to avail themselves of the opportunities of our music department tage of the opportunities which our music department offers ' a ower and use their talents in helping to make our music p to the school ancl a pleasure to the city. -E.

SPECTATOR 29 DEATHS We regret to report the loss of two members of the Alumni whose death occurred since the last issue 'of the Spec- tator, and take this means of extending our sympathy to the bereaved families. I9I7 1922 -Miss Verda Rankin, 'I 7, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lee H. Rankin, of Napoleon Street, died of hemor- rhages Jan. I3, after about a year's illness. Miss Rankin, until her illness, was employed as stenogra- pher in the Order Department of the Cambria Steel Co. She was a member of the First United Brethren Church and was very active in the Sunday School, Christian Endeavor Society, and the Otterbein Guild. Her death will be mourned by all who came in con- tact with her. g A -The death of Zella Berkebile, '22, which occurred Friday, jan. 5, proved a great shock to her many friends in the Alumni and the student bodies of the- High School and Juniata College. She became ill dur- ing the Christmas vacation and succumbed to peri- tonitis about a week later. Zella Berkebile was the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Berkebile' of Dale Terrace. She completed her grammar school education at Meadowvale and was a graduate of the class of l922. She left a splendid record in the High School, both for application to her studies and for her keen interest in all other activities. The same characteristics followed her at Juniata College, and secured for her the highest regard from every one. The funeral, which was largely attended, was in charge of the Rev. W. D. Killer of the Walnut Grove Church of the Brethren, the Rev. S. P. Hoover of the Moxham Church, and the Rev. H. Cassiday of Juniata College. 30 SPECTATOR Exchanges Across the length and breadth of the United States, yes, and even to our possessions in far-away Panama, goes the Spectator of Johnstown High School.

Added Tonnage for American Merchant Marine gave interesting glimpses of the individual members of the graduating class. The poetry, especially Old Panama is splendid. In fact the magazine is one of the best that has come to us. We hope to continue our exchange with you in the future. V The Maroon and White is one of our very best ex- changes. It is an excellent paper in every department. The Literary Department is deserving of special commendation. The Red and White contains some fine editorials, especially the one entitled Co-operation. The Literary De- partment is also good. The Thistle has some good stories, especially To- Kalonn. Great Scotts is interesting. We are looking for- ward to your Freshman Thistle.

We wish your student body success in securing your new high school building. ' . The Racquet is a fine paper throughout.

SPECTATOR 7 ' 1 At Last Susan Horney, '23 Mrs. Purvis's plump, humorous face was very rosy from the steam in the laundry. As she went into the yard to hang up the clothes her neighbor, Mrs. Boggs, remarked about her finishing so early. Mrs. Purvis replied cheerfully, Yes, I'm in a dreadful hurry. An old school friend of mine, Annie Anderson Applegate, is very ill and wants me to come to see her. Poor Annie, she continued as she shook out the linens and hung them in even rows. Poor Annie was a nice sensi- ble girl who studied hard and was graduated at the head of our class and won a scholarship. She went to college for a year, then came home and taught school. She was married for two weeks and two days when her husband fell down the cellar steps right on his head. He died soon after. That, of course, as you known meant-a new black silk dress. Mrs. Purvis smiled broadly as she recalled the incident. Mrs. Boggs leaned idly on the fence. Why a new silk dress? she inquired. Mrs. Purvis regarded her pityingly as she started to tell of her experiences in funerals and black silk dresses. I never go to a funeral without a black silk dress, she boasted. My first husband never talked much. l've heard people say it was because he never had a chance when- l was around, but you know how it really is. Well, to go on with my story, 8 SPECTATOR everyone was surprised that we had beans every Saturday night for six years. Albert never seemed to tire of them until one evening he said, I don't feel like beans to-night. ul was so surprised that I just sat and stared at him. I thought he must be sick. He was and he kept getting worse. He died in a few days. It was so sudden that I didn't have time to go pick out a black dress so my sister had to buy one for me. ' My second husband fell from a scaffold and was so badly hurt that the doctors didn't think he could live. l decided to be prepared this time but it was just money thrown aqway. He didn't die, but we did get a divorce. Black was so becoming to me that l always said that that was what attracted my second husband to me. After we got our divorce l wondered why l couldn't wear my black dress after all for he was the same as dead to me. She had finished hanging up her clothes so she went over to- lean on the fence. Here she was able to be comfortable and talk at the same time. I My husband now is perfectly well--no danger there. But in case Annie gets worse and dies, I'll have a dress. I'm so glad they wear black for mourning. Everyone says l look so nice in it. i The sharp sound of the telephone broke off her sentence. Presently she returned to the waiting Mrs. Boggs. Annie's better, she said regretfully. She only had a bad headache. Of course I didn't want anything to happen to her, she added apologetically, but my black dress will soon be ruined. You know how silk rots when it isn't used. Late in the afternoon Mrs. Boggs saw her coming up the walk, her radiant face in striking contrast to her sombre black dress. ,Hit was this way, she said excitedly as she met Mrs. Boggs. At two o'clock Mrs. Jones came and said she was going to a funeral. She knew I liked to go to them to see who cried the most and see which mourners were in earnest so she asked me to go along. Then with a sigh of deep satisfaction she added, Silk dresses, especially black ones, come in useful once in a while and mine was used at last. .. SPECTATOR 9 The Mountain Climbers Paul D. Olejar, '23 There's another city fellow here, remarked Jud Hem- kins to his chum, Rod Dougall, as they walked down the only street of Bennett's Crossing, at dusk in the early spring. The boys were about the same-age, seventeen. They were inseparable chums, but different in disposition. Jud was sunny and smiling, Rod pessimistic. He was critical qf every- one and everything, but his particular aversion was the city fellows, who came quite often to the little village. He de- clared that they were sissies, and he would have very little to do with them. Beyond his contemptuous comment, I-l'm, another sissy, Rod did not discuss the matter, but Jud knew he was interested. When they came to ,Iud's home, Rod tossed him a careless Good night, and continued on his way. As he approached the gate of his own home, he was accosted by a young man, who, he knew, was a city fellow, for the hamlet had only one hundred inhabitants, and Rod knew every one of them. , Are you Rod Dougall? asked the stranger. Rod grunted. The youth continued, 'Tm hunting for a guide to go up Mt. Nescopek. My name is Jack Peterson. I'll pay you if you will take me up. You see, l made a bet that l'd climb the mountain, so I'm going to do it to-morrow. Rod understood. He looked at the stranger, half- amused and half-pitingly. Many city boys came to climb Mt. Nescopek and Rod had guided many parties, at least part way up, for though the mountain was not high, it was difficult to climb. Only two seasoned climbers of all those that had tried, had reached the top in three hours of climbing. That was one of the reasons Rod disliked the city people. He and jud had reached the top in a little over an hour. What time do you want to start? asked Rod. Oh, about seven. All right, he responded, I'll be at the hotel at that time. The young man hesitated a moment, but, seeing that Rod was uncommunicative, he turned and went down the street. Rod went into the house. 10 SPECTATOR 1 That fellow thinks he can climb the old hill, he men- tally commented, Hand he looks strong enough to do it. But if he gets past the halfway point I'll go ,as fast as when I raced Jud up, and that fellow will quit. They all do. At seven o'clock the next morning Rod was at the hotel ready to climb the old hill. He found Jack Peterson, clad in the newest style of hiking clothes, looking every inch city-bred. The two started, Jack hoping that they would reach the top and Rod sure that they would not go much farther than halfway. The foot of the mountain was a mile away from the hotel, and then there was a climb of a mile by the path to the top, though the peak was not more than a half a mile above sea-level. The path was steep and rocky, winding around the mountain. At first the path led through a forest and the going was easy, but later the brush and trees rapidly thinned and the path became rockier and steeper, so that even Rod had difficulty in keeping from slipping as they neared the half-way mark, a small hut. Jack was pant- ing heavily. Better take a little rest here, said Rod. Only about five minutes, panted the youth. l want to get up there as soon as possible. They started again, Rod leading. He set a fast pace, which in a few minutes made hirn pant. He could hear Jack behind him, his labored breath coming in gasps. Rod mo- mentarily expected the city youth to call a halt or a slacken- ing of pace, but no call came. They passed the three-fourths mark and Rod looked around in surprise. l-le saw the boy gamely keeping the pace and felt that, here, at last, was a fellow who would go to the limit. Climbing was hard and Rod was becoming tired. He could hear the boy stumbling back of him and panting horri- bly. Rod was beginning to pant more. Getting tired? he asked. Want to quit? No sir, gasped the youth, and with an additional effort he reached Rod's side. That last quarter of a mile was a terrific struggle between the two. They came within sight of the peak. It was barren with the exception of a few tufts of grass and a stunted tree at the highest point. ln the last few yards Rod and Jack raced side by side, both very tired and out of breath. With one desperate effort, Rod reached the tree a second before Jack. You Won, said Jack, glancing at his watch and drop- ping down on the ground to rest. Why, it's only eight SPECTATOR ll o'clock. Eightl ejaculated Rod, Hand We started at seven. We have come up in one hour. That's the record, isnit it? H asked Jack happily. lt is, said Rod, and you're the only city fellow that has climbed the mountain in that time. You're no sissy. 'il should say not. After resting awhile and enjoying the splendid view, they started down leisurely. ' ' That was a pretty hard climb, remaked Rod. Did you ever climb before? Yes, answered Jack. Do you like to explore? There is a big cave in this mountain. I have explored part of it, but it takes courage to go to the farthest end. l don't know how far back it is, but Jud and I went back quite a bit and the cave didn't seem to have an end. If you want to explore the cave, l'll taike you over. I would like to, replied Jack, but l have to go back to the city this afternoon. l will explore it some other time. Hlill take you any time you want to go. They had entered the outskirts of the village and as Rod said this, he heard a smothered laugh back of hirn. Whirling around he saw Jud with a broad grin on his face. What are you laughing at? asked Rod half-angrily, while Jack stood by, too surprised to speak. The high and mighty Rod stooping to talk to a city fellow, answered Jud laughingly. Well, said Rod embarassed somewhat, he's a regular fellow. The three walked down the street of Bennetfs Crossing and discussed plans for exploring the innermost depths of the cave. jack Peterson departed in the afternoon, and he left two friends behind him. That evening Rod gazed at the mountain bathed in the moonlight and said softly, Yes, you old hill, a real fellow, from the city climbed you to-day, and he would have beaten me if he had not carried all those unnecessaries that style says he must. ln a city twenty miles away another youth gazed at the peak of Mt. Nescopek, barely visible in the moonlight, and 12 SPECTATOR remarked, I must be out of condition for that mountain was almost as hard to climb as some of those in the Rockies. And my guide can surely climb! I'll have to give him the cup l won by climbing Mt. Birch out in Wyoming in less time than the champion mountain climber, Norris West, did. Central Eva Neafach, '23 . Number, please? The line's busy. Out of order. -These and a few other phrases constituted the entire vocab- ulary of Betty Weston during her business hours, for Betty was a Central People seldom think of the telephone operator at the other end of the wire when making a call so Betty never had reason to 'look forward to the morrow with eager anticipation. On this dreary March day, as she sat at her switchboard looking out of the office window, she saw a few pedestrians who were battling with the strong wind. For the time, she forgot her fellow-workers and wondered whether she would be compelled to answer telephone calls for the remainder of her life. Oh, she thought, would something different never happen! But something different did happen, for Betty was aroused from her musings by a little flashing of signals which forewarned a call. She answered it with her usual, Number, please? Imagine her surprise when, instead of hearing a number, the voice of an impatient woman sounded over the wire, Won't someone from the telephone office please come over to 342 B- Avenue right away? l need help. The appeal in the voice moved Betty to rush immediately to the home at 342 B-- Avenue. After a hasty explana- tion to the force, she hurried out of the office and hailed a taxi-cab. If by chance an acquaintance had seen her, he would have known that something unusual was occurring for Betty had not the means to ride around in taxicabs. Once in the taxi Betty thought that the section of the city was very respectable and the woman's voice had certainly sounded as though it were cultured. Still she wondered Whether she should have some kind of protection. The sud- den stopping of the taxi recalled her to action. She paid the SPECTATOR 13 driver, and hurried up the steps of a fine looking home and rang the bell. She received no response and finally walked into the hall. The same voice she had heard on the telephone summoned her upstairs. As she reached the room from which the voice had come, Betty thought she had never seen so lovely a bedroom. It was quaintly old-fashioned-a room in which Martha Washington might have slept. Betty was surprised to find it in a house otherwise modern. ln the bed near a large window, Betty saw a sweet-faced old lady, who asked abruptly, 'Are you the young lady from the telephone office? Betty answered in the affirmative and the patient went on, I am Mrs. Lane. It seems as if everyone in the house has' the afternoon off and as I am unable to mlove, I cannot take my medicine. Will you please give it to me? Betty was curious to know if this was all Mrs. Lane wanted when suddenly the latter asked, Where have I seen you before? What is your name? ' My name is Elizabeth Weston, but I don't know where you could have seen me before, Betty replied. You fare Virginia Weston's daughter! How stupid of me not to see the resemblance! After many questions and explanations, Mrs. Lane drew from Betty the story of her monotonous life. Betty, I am considered a very eccentric woman. I fail to appreciate this new age with its extreme styles and jazz- music which you will find in this home. I have, therefore, had this room fur- nished for me. It is the only room in the entire house in which I feel comfortable. Several years ago as the result of an un- fortunate accident, I became helpless. Now I can only go from one room to the other with the aid of my wheel-chair. To-day it seemed as though everyone had deserted me, and I felt so lonely I didn't know what to do. The telephone was the only available aid. It then occurred to me to call Cen- tral. l'm glad now for it has been the means by which I have met the daughter of an old schoolmate. l was grieved to hear of the accident in which both your father and mother lost their lives and often wondered what had become of you. Now that both you and I are alone, can't we be friends? Betty, l've been thinking of engaging a companion. Will yougcome to me at double the salary you are now receiving? When Mrs. Lane paused, Betty was too stunned to grasp the full meaning of this proposition. When she did finally 14 SPECTATOR understand, Mrs. Lane needed no assurance that Betty was grateful. A very short time found Betty established at 342 B-- Avenue, never again to return to the dreary round of duties as a Central Our Mid-Winter Day's Dreami' Mary Dibert, '24 One snowy Sunday afternoon, while exploring the Stonycreek's muddy banks, we came upon it--our cave. It was the greatest source of inspiration to our imaginative minds throughout that long, snow-clad winter. That is, it was an inspiration to my best friends,--Terry, then ten years old, her younger brother, Eddie-Pete, and me, Terry's senior by seventeen days. It seemed we were no sooner confronted by our 'LMid- Winter Day's Dream, as Terry aptly revising Shakespeare's title, called the cave, because the red and gold cover of the play appealed to her from the topmost shelf of her father's library, than its stone and gravel sides and its small opening into an expansive interior fairly seemed to shout- Pirates! Acting upon the suggestion we promptly began a thorough search for a suitable treasure-chest, and treasure, which we found in the guise of a discarded cigar box, some stray pieces of tinfoil and a few marbles. After we had put our spoils into the treasure-chest, Terry placed it as far back in the cave as she could reach through the narrow opening, while Eddie- Pete and I tried to prove to her that if our treasure-chest re- mained untouched it would be a sign that no one else knew of the cave. We returned to the cave a few days later-again in search of inspiration and amusement. Eddie-Pete was the first to think of playing Napoleon, and of course we had to submit to his being that great leader while we were merely his forces. So Eddie-Pete placed himself, in what he thought to be a Napoleonic attitude, upon a large rock which sloped precipitously towards the river. We, his forces, had turned to rescue our overshoes from the mud when a terrifying splash made us know all too quickly that Napoleon had met his Waterloo. Consternation prevailed! We speedily recog- SPECTATOR 15 nized the situation and came to the rescue with sticks. Pres- ently our dripping leader, crestfallen, appeared above the water. Alarmed at his downfall, we quickly dispatched him to his mother. Our cave never ceased to inspire us in the most delightful ways. We were seldom allowed to visit it after Eddie-Pete's misfortune, but it continued to be our Midwinter Day's Dream. The jewel Thief Harold M. Nickel, '23 Onevnight, as I returned from the theatre about eleven o'clock, I passed through a wealthy residential district. Fancy my amazement upon seeing a massive form clinging to the wall surrounding the home of a multi-millionaire jeweler. Upon my approach, the figure quickly disappeared over the wall into the darkness. I entered a side gate of the estate but seeing nothing to arouse my curiosity, I directed my footsteps homeward. The next morning, I was finishing my breakfast when my friend, Ralph Morgan, dashed into the dining room wav- ing the morning paper excitedly. As he presented it to me, he pointed to a head-line which ran across the front page. It read: ' ' HALF MILLION DOLLAR ROBBERY Wealthy jeweler ls Robbed of Precious Stones According to the newspaper account, the millionaire who, at the time was spending a few days in Florida, had placed the jewels in a special safe in his home. One of his servants discovered the safe open and its contents ransacked. Detectives were already on the trail of the thief. This account brought to my mind the incident of the night before and its probable relation to the theft. I told Ralph what I had seen for he had, for several years, been at- tempting to solve just such mysteries as this, and the possi- bility of a reward stimulated his efforts. As I revealed this bit of information, he became even more excited and imme- diately began to formulate a plan by,which the thief might be brought to justice. 16 . SPECTATOR We rushed out of the house and were soon at the spot where I had seen the figure disappear. We examined a portion of the wall and the moist earth on both sides of the wall. in several places, the ivy, growing over the wall had been torn loose. The soil revealed queer foot prints which we were not able to identify. As we hurried across the extensive lawn, we met an excited servant who, thinking us to be detectives, conducted us to the mansion. He led us into a large room which was in great disorder. Books and papers were strewn about and chairs were over- turned. The safe was found to contain nothing of much value, showing that the thief had made a thorough search. There had been a rumor that the jeweler, before he left, had placed one half million dollars worth of jewels in the safe. The knowledge of this had evidently prompted the thief to direct his attentions toward some means of obtaining them. Ralph was examining some fingerprints on the window sill when a heavily built elderly man entered the room. l recog- nized him to be Mr. Wilson, the jeweler, and owner of the estate. ' 'iwhat does this mean? he inquired in surprise. The frightened servant attempted to explain the situa- tion to his employer who had returned so unexpectedly. Mr. Wilson listened for a moment and then going to the safe he hurriedly examined some of the papers which remained. Then he turned with a smile. ul should have told you, John, he began, 'ithat I placed the jewels in a safety-deposit box, just before I left. As to the thief, he got absolutely nothing from the safe. Just then, a negro, employed on the estate, entered. lVlistah Wilson, dat ar ape what you bring from Africa, he got away las' nightg but ah ketch im dis moanin', prowlin' 'roun' de chicken coops. Lahd! but he fight. But Ah use de whip on 'rn and drew 'm back in de cage. Turning to the servant, Mr. Wilson inquired, Are you sure every window was closed last evening? i'Yes sir. Ah, er, I mean-no, sir. That one, over there, was open when I came into the room this morning, sir. Mr. Wilson held his sides and laughed for fully two min- utes. Finally, controlling his laughter, he decided to let us in on the joke. Since l brought my young chimpanzee from Africa, I have attempted to teach him a few tricks. One of these was SPECTATO'R 17 to open the safe for me. He has become so ambitious that he breaks from his cage, enters the house and opens my safe without my knowledge. With this Mr. Wilson broke into another fit of laughter. Crestfallen, Ralph and I stumbled homeward, deter- mined that we would make sure of our grounds the next time before we would undertake to run down a criminal from his foot prints. The Coward Paul Morrissey, '23 At his post, on sentinel duty, stood Private Jimmy Mur- phy. As he paced to and fro on his beat, he was in a bitter mood. Soon, the relief sentinel appeared, and with a feeling of satisfaction he made his way to the dugout where his squad was stationed. Here, some of the soldiers were playing cards, others were telling stories. Jimmy stretched himself on an im- provised bunk, where he could rest, and at the same time watch the progress of the game. Finally he burst out, When's the 'zero hour', Lieuten- ant? directing his query to Lieutenant Ryan. The Lieutenant looked up from his cards and answered crisply, 5:40. During a lull in the game, he suddenly turned to Jimmy and said, jim, you remind me of a brother of mine, but unlike you, he was a coward, afraid even to enlist. He laughed at me when l urged him. To-night, he's probably having a good time over there, while I have to fight. But l'cl rather be a dead hero, than a big live coward like him. Had anyone looked at Jirnmy, he would have noticed a peculiar expression on his countenance. However, no one observed him, and turning his face toward the wall of the dugout he was soon fast asleep. Jixnmy was awakened by the sound of the barrage that precipitated the infantry advance. There were thou- sands of guns of all sizes. The smaller ones were shelling the nearer battlements, spreading havoc among the front line trenches of the enemy, while the larger ones shelled positions in the rear. The air was filled with smoke and the flashes of 18 S'PECTATOR the guns. It seemed as if the firing would never stop, but gradually it became lighter until the larger guns were the only ones that were hurling projectiles. The critical moment came. The huge tanks began to move forward, vomiting fire and destruction from their ma- chine guns and light armament. Then the signal was given. The soldiers scaled the sides of the trenches, waited until the line was closed, and moved over the shell-torn ground, their officers leading. The squad to which Jimmy belonged, occu- pied a position in the advance wave. Suddenly a murderous fire poured from hidden machine gun nests. Undaunted the men pushed on, only to find that the enemy by a Hank move- ment had surrounded them. Desperate, they attempted to fight their way out, but the terrible fire from the machine guns, cut them down. Finally only Jimmy and Lieutenant Ryan survived. Side by side they fought. Two of the foe attacked Ryan. Fear- lessly, Jimmy lunged forward, his bayonet finding its mark, but the second foe struck him down, mortally Wounded. ln another moment Ryan also fell, pierced by machine gun bul- lets. Jimmy, said Ryan hoarsely, you were a brave sol- dier. ln a weak voice jimmy made answer, Lieutenant, you said something in the dugout last night that made me feel queer. Like your brother, I was afraid to enlist until every- one, even my mother, called me a slacker. I enlisted. l didn't do much. Still --- Then after a pause. 'il hope your brother has changed his mind. - I don't think he had enough grit. He told me in his last letter that he hadn't, but you were a real brother. We'll 'go West' together. ' Jimmy's lips moved as if to say something, he smiled faintly, and with a long sigh, breathed his last. There was a brief lull. A huge shell fell, and when the smoke from the explosion had lifted, Ryan too had gone West. sPEc'rAToR U 19 Principals Page Who Will Win the Prize? The state scholarship for VCambria County for I923 should be won by the Johnstown High School. Any mem- ber of the class of IQZZM or l923 is eligible for this scholar- ship. There should be a large number of contestants from lthese classesg and if there is I have every reason to believe that one of our students will win this valuable prize. Johnstown High School was not represented in last year's examination. The scholarship was won by Barnesboro High School. This will be the fifth year in which our state has offered scholarships to high school graduates in every county or sen- atorial district within its borders. An applicant for this scholarship must be a bonafide resi dent of Cambria County and a graduate of some first class high school ffour year coursel in Pennsylvania. Candidates must indicate their willingness to comply with the regulations established by the State Council of Education. They are as follows: CI D The candidate must pursue in an approved college in Pennsylvania a regular four year course fday sessionj lead- ing to the B. A. or B. S. degree. QZJ The candidate understands the scholarship is not available for evening courses, attendance at normal schools or professional schools, such as a school of Dentistry. f3J A candidate failing to enter college during the year the award is made understands that the scholarship is forfeited and that it will be awarded to the next highest on the list of competitors. C41 The candidate further understands that before payment for the current year is recommended the Registrar or the Dean of the college must certify that the holder is in good scholastic standing and that payment will not be made until the completion of the work of the first semester. The examination will be held May 4, l923, and all can- didates must take English and American History. They must 20 SPECTATOR select one subject from the following: Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, l..atin,, French, German or Spanish. The time allowed is from 9:00 A. M. to l:30 P. M. The amount of time to be allotted to each examination is left to the discretion of the candidates. I shall be glad to have pupils of our High School consult me with reference to the examinations, to the kind of ques- tions submitted, and to other information that may be desired.

Only those students whose grades are not below a B at the end of each school term are entitled to membership. It is worth the ,while of every pupil to belong to the A-B Club, for it is an honorary organization. To some stu- dents, it has proved an incentive for better work, but this num- ber has been comparatively small. Of the sircteen hundred students that attend our school, merely one hundred are mem- bers of the A-B Club. There is no reason why this number cannot be increased. Now though there are but three months of school to complete the term, there is a sufficient opportunity for stu- dents to improve work and become members of the A-B Club. It is unnecessary to appeal to those students who are already members for they know of the benefits derived and the fine times to be had. ls there any A-B student who does not eagerly look forward to the social functions every year where both teachers and students enjoy themselves? V This companionship with the faculty is but one of the pleasures the pupils receive. To the incoming students especially, we wish to show the importance of starting right. There can be no better way than by becoming an A-B Club member. Et N. N. An Opportunity The basketball season was a fine example of what a team representing Johnstown High can do. Of course we had our defeats, and were disappointed in the cheering and representation of students at the games, but, since it is all over now, we shall remember the good work, done by the team, and try to give stronger support to the rest of our activities of the year. Opportunity to do so will be given soon, for the SPECTATOR 23 track team has already begun training, and Coach Simmons reports that the future, in track, is very bright. Our one big task, this season, will be to show what the student body can do, when it is backing a school team, fight- ing for H. S. It is for each individual student in school, regardless of class, to work unselfishly for the team, and the school, and when this is done, who shall stop us? W. MCH. 24 SPECTATOR School News The Pep Club held a meeting in 301 January 29. The campaign for new members was discussed and several new names were voted upon at the time. Pep was aroused for the remaining basketball games. ' The Term VIII Class held two important meetings dur- ing the past month. At the first meeting the class voted to have the former officers serve during the present term instead of 'electing new ones. The officers are: President, John Maleyg Vice-President, Madelene Elliottg Secretary, Mary Blanche Foster, Treasurer, Dorothy Hoffman. Miss Ulery and Miss Findlay were chosen as faculty advisers of the class. At the second meeting Mr. Turgeon was chosen as the class photographer. Several other matters incident to gradua- tion were taken up. Interesting chapel exercises were held February 7 and 8. Edward Cattell, statistician of the city of Philadelphia, de- livered a very fine address. The students showed their ap- preciation by a rising vote of thanks. The chapel exercises of February I4 and I5 were given over to a musical program. Robert Bishop rendered two pleasing vocal solos and Agnes Martin played two selections on the piano. The special orchestra, consisting of members chosen, from the large orchestra, also furnished music. Mr. Simmons, the basketball coach, asked the support of the student body in the remaining basketball games. The A-B Club held a meeting in 305 February 21. The chief business of the meeting was the re-organization of the club. Eva Neafach was elected Presidentg Margaret Kantner, Vice-Presidentg Beatrice Thomas, Secretary, and Florence Korns, Treasurer. Miss Evans and Mr. Simmons were selected as the faculty advisers of the club. The chapel exercises of February 21 and 22 were among the best held during the year. Miss Fearl, head of the Latin Department, delivered an exceptionally fine address on Edu- cation, which the students heartily appreciated. A trio, consisting of Mr. Odell, Clarence Bowman and Fred Darr, rendered a unique selection. The band played several special numbers. , almond If Dzzpils H - j5f:f,5:-5SY1ICK3N5' q45'pvL211Naa 533 va,-1 :L-g.,: gf!! A ' N YW ' ' 5 x- ' 'J 5 .. 41? ,, - ' f'-'.' rl-I 1 N.

Your Exchange Department excels that of any of our other friends. The Flambeauf' Sandy High School, DuBois, Pa. It is hard to decide just what to 'say about a paper like yours. If you had some glaring fault our task would be easyg but there are so many good things that we could say and so many ways to say them that we have decided to resort to the worn but sincere expression: Your paper is very good. The Orange and Black, Middletown, Conn. Your December issue is fine. You have probably the largest Literary Department of all our exchanges. Forum, Senn High School, Chicago, Illinois.

It is a self evident fact and yet such a venture usually results in failure. I am speaking of the inevitable Study Hall of our High School. , To evade that room is a tragedy, to enter the room in an attempt to acquire knowledge is more or less a comedy. The evading leads the guilty person to wander aimlessly through the halls. This is not unlike a game of chance at a horse race or a participation in a playful game of hide and seek, for he must constantly be on the lookout for the floor walkers who keep the guilty person dodging from stair- case to helfry in an effort to.pass unseen. But at last the inevitable happens. He is caught and with disgust and shame is led off to the Court of Justice. Here he meets the stern- faced Judge who pronounces the long sentence of Deten- tion not less than forty-five minutes or more than sixty minutes after school. . At the conclusion of the sentence the culprit is led back to the same cell and restored once more to his accustomed seat. On the other hand, if your better judgment decides that you shall enter the open door you do so in a half dazed man- ner, but presently your reverie is broken by an unearthly noise which seems to emanate from withinq Half frightened, you X l s KSPECTNATOR draw away thinking that you have left school and have come to a zoo or a circus for the roaring reminds you of a den of lions. Again the spell is broken and a chattering is discerni- ble above the roar. Presently all the former fears become groundless. The ringing of the bell and the gentle voice of the ever-patient .waiting keeper calling the noisy group to order. After a few minutes the scene changes and becomes -as quiet as a storm in a movingL picture drama. However, the silence does not mean that everyone is at work. No! far from it. While some of the 'iweary ones amuse themselves by looking out of the dusty windows, others seem to be gazing into space and their faces register a blank, far-away look like that of some Ancient Pharoah. V The beautiful keeper then counts her charges as a mother hen counts her chicks to determine that none had gone astray. This accomplished, she begins her promenade, stopping here and there to observe the subject ,matter, that her precious ones have carried with them, or to answer foolish questions of some hollow-minded fellow. ' The pupils next attract your attention. Near you are some familiar faces. Some you know personally, others only by association in the same room. At this m,oment something attracts your eyes. What is it? Oh, nothing but one of the feminine flapper type, frantically waving her indispensable powder puff in an effort to land some of the floury substance on her nose. She evidently accomplishes her purpose be- cause when the cloud of dust subsides she emerges aghast. In disgust, you turn to your neglected books. At this time, you realize that time is passing rapidly, your thoughts turn to your books a second tirne. You wish that you had worked that hard Geometry problem or studied that difficult Caesar lesson. How fervently you wish then that Caesar and all of the rest of those, humbug Romans had never been born or that Caesar had died while fighting the Helvetians. Then a gong sounds. You are startled from your day dreams and worthless thoughts. What was that? Thank heavens, the end of the period. You quickly pick up your books and join once more the laughing, boisterous throng with fear in your heart of the ordeal you are to meet in your next class. You enter another four-walled prison determined to do your best and bluff it out. It is your chance to do or die. SPECTATOR .9 The Smoke of Johnstown Joe O'Connor, '24 Standing on the railroad platform inthe stillness of night, looking across the glistening belts of steel that wind away into the dim distance, I behold the huge smokestacks of Johns- town's industrial center belch forth clouds of blue-black vapor -a strange contrast to the deep blue of the sky. The smoke rises in a varying, glaring plume, and spreads out like a huge octopus over the heart of the cityg vivid pictures are brought to my mind, pictures that the genii of old could not conceive of. I first let my fancies take me out into the spring flowers-the beautiful green foliage of the trees where in happy boyhood hours llhad danced and played in'glee, delighting in the fragrance and eternal life that always springs anew in nature with the coming of springtime. K But now that I have grown older l look in vain to see the trees take on new foliage, no longer do I hear the first wild notes of the robin on an early spring morning, no longer do l wander in and out aimong the flowers wafting their sweet fragrance on the summer breeze. A city has sprung up where once small 'white cottages and well kept gardens stood, and has marked the passing of the sweet carolers of spring and all the beautiful things that are known only to the lover of nature. ' Now when l think of all these things, l look at the blue vapors above me as if they were huge vultures about to pounce upon me and l draw back in terror afraid ofll know not what in that dread hour of midnight when good people say, ghosts are prone to prowl about. But now a new volume of smoke pouring out of the srnokestack in a long, sinuous wave conjures new fancies to my mind and I am led off once more. l see in the gushing forth of that smoke a new era--an era of industry and progressg a city is being built up, the poulation is growing and business is progressing making us a stronger city, a city that will be valuable to the nation, a city whose people will bask in the sunshine of its prosperity. , ' People of Johnstown should not condemn but should promote those huge waves of smoke that come out like a large scarf and go sailing somewhat akin to a ship sailing on the seag for those waves represent progress and betterment of the I 10' SPECTATOR city. That smoke is of vital igmportance because without it Johnstown would decline and a village would be left where now is a great and prosperous city. , ...mm....-.... A A Cat-astrophe ' Edward Custer, '24M ' Winifred Meow, a cat of refinement and good breeding, lost the high esteem of the members of the high class cat society when she ran away from the richest home in the neigh- borhood to marry Tom Purr, a mere alley cat, who had to depend, upon scraps for a living. It' was prophesied that Winifred would soon divorce Tom because of non-support: But these prophecies came to naught because the couple, al- though very poor, were happy together. Soon a child was born to the happy pair, but, alas, the poor kitten soon became an orphan. Tdm was out late one night withrseveral friends and while they were singing a quartet on Mr. Grouche's back fence, Tom was struck with an alarm clock and killed on the spot. Winifred, when she heard the sad news died of a broken heart. Thus poor Tabby, their child, was left an orphan. Tabby wandered over all the city west of 31st Street, gaining an ability to take care of herself thatfshe would have lost had she remained under the care of her mother. One day, as she was sauntering down I-logan's Alley, a place where she had never been before, she was confronted by a delegation of cats. They 'asked her if she would lead them in a revolution to overthrow King Tut, an unspeakable tyrant, the present ruler of Hogans Alley. Tabby, anticipat- ing a good battle, agreed to do so. The revolutionists or- ganized their forces and easily defeated King Tut's paid forces. After the tyrant was executed, Tabby because of her bravery was elected by a great majority to the queenship. Under the reign of Queen Tabby the kingdom had ag great wave of prosperity. Only one thing marred the happiness of I-logan's Alley cats and that was the fiercenessiof the D Street kingdom of dogs. Thedogs, under the rule of Bow Wow, had grown very powerful and subdued the cats. Of ,late the dogs had become worried because of the increase of power of the cats K X 1--Q..-4,11 IVJQVV .- 'N - . , .v4f -r. W . SPECTATOR 11 in Hogan's Alley. King Wow had organized an army pre- paratory to an invasion of I-logan's Alley. K Tabby, too, pre- pared her army, floated Liberty Bonds and did various other things. .1 - i When the two armies did meet, the noise of the fray could. be heard at the police station. The cats Hnally weak- ened under the heavy forces of dogs and were saved from defeat by the police whotcaught all they could. Then many squalling cats were put into a cart to be taken to the pond to be qdrownecl. A Johhny Smith, an interested bystander, stole Tabby from the cart and took her home. In Tabby's estimation, johnny was a cruel master because he gave her so many baths and combings. Tabby, however, became so clean that all the fleas, on her that were not drowned, left in disgust. Under Johnny's care Tabby became a very beautiful cat. On the advice of his mistress, Johnny took Tabby to the cat show, where she easily won the ribbon. Mrs. Morgan, Johnny's mistress, gave Johnny' fifty cents for the best cat in the world. Johnny invested in sour balls and gum drops. I5 Mrs. lVlorgan's home Tabby live a life of ease. She had her choice of cushions, beds and servants, and also the best of foods. ln spite of it all Tabby was discontented. Her chief happiness was' to .steal off to the basement' and roll in the dirt and pry into opened garbage cans. She was usually punished for thisdemeanor by being given a very thorough bath. One day a brilliant idea came to her. Why not go back to see her old friends? So on the servant's day off she ran away and visited her old friends. They induced her to stay. The usurper on her throne was speedily executed and Tabby was given her old place. For all l know Tabby still lives her life of hardships and danger, but she is supremely happy. 12 SPECTATOR Riding On the Bus Betty Monaghan, .Z 4 It is just an oidinary ride on the Johnstown to Dunlon bus-the same kind of a ride that l take five days of the week. But to-day l have decided to be especially observant in order to turn out an essay on the subjects l am determined that l will neither dream of the wonders I am going to perform in the distant future nor the material for my next new shirt. I am not even going to think up brilliant remarks for the benefit of assembly and study hall teachers who seam to have the idea that they.are the only ones who should talk during study periods . While I have been getting ready to make my observa- tions the bus has started and is already half way up Main St. The seating is arranged as in the smaller street cars--one long seat along each side. To-clay six passengers are 'facing me from the opposite side of the bus. The first of these is a stout man of forty years or thereabouts with a little mus- tache and twinkling grey eyes. His sunburnt face and the absence of collar and tie proclaim him to be the kind of man who likes to fool around with a garden and a coop of chickens. But, becoming aware of my steady scrutiny, he is looking at 'me inquiringly. That is the trouble with this business of being, observant. If it is indulged in too much, the observer is liable to get a bad reputation. People don't like to be stared at. , Y The next in line is a nervous young girl with an armful of bundles and a satchel at her' feet. No doubt this is- her first trip on the bus. She is probably wondering when she is to pay her fare and how she is going to let the driver know her destination. When she knows the ropes she will not sit up so stiffly nor hold to. her bundles so tightly. Next to her are two gossiping, middle aged women from the same neighborhood who are returning home after a day's shopping. l can catch only a word here and there above the roar of the engine but when the bus stops for a moment behind an unloading trolley their voices suddenly become unnaturally loud.and startling. A srmell of burning leather which has been faintly evi- dent for some time is becoming stronger. At last the driver . Qgk, lr ,. 1 V SPECTATOR 13 slows down, long enough to cast a fleeting glance over his right shoulder at the line of feet under the opposite seat. A general shuffling ensues as arctics, rubbers and shoes are removed from the hot pipe underneath. The bus resurnes its former pace but the burning leather smell is still evident. The driver again slows down and glances severely over his left shoulder at our seat. But we have taken his former hint and our five respectivetpairs of feet grace the center of the aisle. Once more the bus picks up speed. The odor of burning leather is still apparent. At last, seemingly, addressing the windshield, the driver loudly remarks, Those there pipes under the seat are. hot. The nervous girl in the opposite seat hurriedly removes her satchel from the pipe. Presently the odor disappears and the episode is closed. Beside the gossiping women is a distinguished looking, near-sighted man wearing the garb of a priest. Every five minutes or so he emerges from a deep reverie and blinks at his fellow travelers in surprise. A red book protrudes from one pocket of his overcoat. For some time l vainly try to make out the title. 'The one word Charms is all l can dis- cern. Whether the book concerns Those Endearing Young Charms or Reviving the Charms of Religion l have no way of telling. The last of the occupants of the opposite bench is a boy about my own age whohails from my neighborhood. Three or perhaps four years ago this boy was cheerfully returning my compliments and stones from the other side of the creek. Two years ago he would have nothing to do with any old girl. Last year he was painfully bashful. This year he is exceedingly distant and aloof. l wonder how he will be neict year? Just now he is deeply engrossed in his own affairs. A smile lights up his face as some happy thought suggests itself to him. lmmediately, however, the smile disappears. l-le clears his throat and takes a quick look around to see if anyone has noticed. I display tact and good breeding by swiftly looking elsewhere. There are four others besides myself on my bench. On one side of me is my brother, nine years old, contrary and impudent. His face is dirty and his hands, all except one finger, are black. The finger has been in his 'mouth the greater part of the day employed in wiggling a loose tooth. At present he is attempting to do the wiggling with his tongue ...4 f I 14 SPECTATOR and .other teeth, thereby causing strange contortions of the face. On my other side is a postman. So much I can tell 'from his uniform, But I dare not look higher than his neck without attracting undue attention. The other two occupants of our seat I cannot see at all without craning my neck and staring. Therefore I shall allow them to rest in peace. The bus is nearing Baker's apple orchard. At a par- ticular broken down tree in this orchard I begin as usual to gather up bundles. At the next bend in the road I dig my elbow into the postman in orderito extractlthe fare from my side pocket. A little farther on the bus pretends to stop. I get up. The bus gives one more jerk. Withbut the least hesitation-in fact quite suddenly I sit down on the postman's lap, much to that gentIemen's embarrassment. Again I get up., step on everyone's feet, and hat boxes, proceed tothe front of the bus, drop the fare into the driver's hand and descend into the inevitable mud puddle. ' Innocent , , Joe Bennan, 'Z4M HI am very weary, my head is in a whirl of swift events, and I feel as if It were about to faint. Q k To-day in the large court-room amid the buzz of voices, the scratching of the cIerk's pens, the arguments of the at- torneys, the shouting of the ushers and, the whispering of the jury,f I, Henry Addison, was convicted of murder in the first degree, which means that very soon I will be in the chair for the last shock of my unhappy life. The grave faces of the jury are still before my memory. The harsh tones of the judge are still ringing in my ears, and as I was led to my cell I felt as if I were leaving the World behind. Here I am in the cold, bare cell. My supper stands on the table untouched, as I write of my unhappy ending. I have become frantic in the resolve to seek my freedom. If there is any possible means I will fight until the last horri- ble moment, for life is precious, 'and one lives on this earth but a short time. I am in the prime of life. I was just be- ginning to feel life worth living gwhen' this very sorrowful tragedy occurred. Why should I die when I am innocent of w rf 5- 11' X , I SPECTATOR 15 any crime? Because l happened to find the dead body of my good friend Arthur Davis on the floor of his study, and because I picked up the weapon of hard steel that was used to commit the crime I am condemned to die.' I have already lost my few friends, my small fortune has been confiscated, and my name is shamed before the world forever, unless the guilty one confesses. , The note given above was found' in the cell of Henry Addison, beside his dead body the morning after he was convicted for murder. I The doctors who examined the body, stated that death was due to heart failurercaused, according to their opinion, by the intense excitement aroused when he was writing'the note. I , Three months later a criminal accused of burglary con- fessed to the murder of Arthur Davis, with the intention of robbery. ' A K . The Fad Richard Tredennick, ' 24 On my return to High School after three years -of ex- perience in the school ofhard knocks, such as shoveling coal and' doing odd jobs, which forced me backinto a state of barbarism fwith due apologies to one famous Latin teacherl, l discovered that in order to bring my mental status back to normal l must resume my education. So here I am in the Junior year, ready to absorb various bits of knowledge. However, as a man of the world, l had become very keen and observant, and of course did not wish to be an old Fogy,' as my age would naturally indicate. My schoolmates soon discovered this unusual faculty when one day I neglected my daily trip to the tonsorial par- lor. This result caused no little comment, by both faculty and students. Consequently since mustache-growing had become a fad, I determined to act on the wise suggestion of my red headedibrother and become a member of this exclusive society. , To the inexperienced the art of raising a mustache may seem trivial but to the experienced it is a serious matter, 16 . SBECTATOR especially when the hair on each side does not balance, and still further when it grows below the lip and annoys the chin. Then again, to keep the mustache in trim is no little task, for it takes patience and persistence to keep it shaped properly and divided artistically. Right here l almost became dis- couraged, but since my aspirations to belong to the elite were so great l took on new courage and with the patience of Job, watched developments. This time. however. l tried a method that was easier on my temper but harder on my pocketbook. This method was to give this pet over to trained hands and by paying a nominal sum of twenty-five cents, emerge properly groomed. f Even at this point accidents happen. Just as l was ready to leave, the porter approached me with a brush and while giving my clothes a dry cleaning, he set up such a draft that itvcaught my mustache in a direct current, which caused about three dozen brilliant bristles toiseparate from the loyaliones. This so changed my appearance that looked like a veritable HBullfighter ready to leave the arena. At that moment the barber came to the rescue with a stick of wax and patted the disobedient hairs back to their original position. h Thence l departed quite satisfied with the job. , Of course my experiences at school 'were somewhat varied. Can you imagine my taking on the dignity of a faculty member? Well, such was they case. l was actually taken for a new teacher. This flattered me as li knew'then that my face did not betray my mental stagnation. This feeling of superiority was soon replaced by a feel- ing of resentment when my schoolmates began to make light of my precious pet. One had the nerve to ask if it'was the variety of baseball team l was coaching on my upper lip, and still another with greater brass advised -me to sprinkle some commercial fertilizer on my parted dust catcher, so that it would aid growth of the beautiful moss that was creeping under my nosef However, since mustache-growing is the fad, andia person who wishes to be in style must accept the discomforts, that accompany any fad, l have not regretted the experience as l have the satisfaction of knowing that l have .accomplished the art of mustache-raising. V I f X . SPECTATOR 17 ' Inquire at the Little Brown House Mildred Furry, '24 It was storming fiercely and the rain beat upon Peter Dresdan as he hurried along the muddy country road. He was greatly discouraged for he had been hunting work and his search had proved unsuccessful. It was a day when few ventured out so Peter was surprised when he saw a rickety plumber's truck lurching toward him at breakneck speed. When the truck went over a bump Peter thought he saw something drop but when he reached the place, the truck was out of sight. However, on the road lay a strong steel box securely locked by a heavy padllock. It had evidently dropped from the truck, but there was nothing about the box to disclose the identity of the owner. He picked it up and took it to a little brown house, nearby, where Grandmother Dobson lived. The old lady welcomed him gladly and prom- isedito take care of the box till the owner came for it. With a parting injunction that she should not give it up until it was fully identified, Peter left and went back through the rain to the place where he had picked' up the box and there put up a small sign, Inquire at the l..ittle Brown House. He rea- soned that when the owner would miss the box, which he rightly believed to contain something valuable, he would prob- ably remernberlthat bump and come back there to look for it. Meantime, Sam Gordon, the driver of the truck, speedecl along till he reached the office of the Detective Agency of Bookwood. 'But when he looked into the back of the truck for the box, it was gone. At first he was utterly stunned by the realization of his loss, but soon he remembered that bump in the road and decided that that was the only place it could have fallen out. started back immediately but despair clutched at his heart for he remembered having passed some one on the road, and that person had probably picked up the box. u He soon reached the place but saw nothing ofthe box. Then his eyes fell upon the sign, Inquire at the Little Brown House. q He went to the house and upon inquiring found that a box had been left there. When he had identified it to the satisfaction of the little old lady, he told her this story: The box contained papers that were the evidence which was Q ,m,,,, , 18 SPECTATOR tor secure the arrest of one of the cleverest criminals in the state. These papers had been stolen by friends of the crirni- nal several days before, but as one of the detectives on the case, he had found the house in which they were hiding. Disguised as a plumber, he gained entrance to the house, and secured the box. ln his hurry he had struck the bump in the road, throwing the box from the truck. When he came back to look for the box, ihe had about concluded that it had fallen into the hands of his enemies when he say the little sign. So, he said, the state owes a great deal to the young man whose ingenious little sign, 'Hlnquire at the Little Brown l-lousef' led to restoration of the papers. Y Adventures While 'Writing a Poem To many, the writing of a poem is a pleasure, not a duty. But not so for me. I consider it a duty of the first water. When I am told to write one, I immediately begin a series of experi- ences, in which l run the gamut of all the emotions. And the poetry that results is usually much more try than Hpoetf' I remember particularly one such episode, which oc- curred during my second year in High School. We had been reading Enoch Arden , and one day Miss B. announced that, for the next day's work, each member of the class should write a short poem in blank verse, using the lambic Pentameter line. A Any kind of poetry was difficult enough to write. How- ever, in our earlier Work, we had usually managed to find a few rhyming words, and then fill in the lines. But now, even this one comfort was taken away. We were dismayed. On the way home from school, my churn and l, together with several other girls, discussed a number of possible sub- jects for our poems. We even composed several lines, but never kept on one subject long enough to get good r.esults. Milly, my churn, wrote excellent caustic epigrams, or cleverly humorous animal jingles. Grace wrote poems, or rather ballads, that discussed subjects treated in the comic papers. l wrote fairly good sentimental couplets. We re- cited offhancl, a few of these, but -even our united efforts on one subject, failed to bring a unified poem. .. . ' . SPECTATOR 19 While I did the supper dishes, I tried to think of a good subject for a poem. But no ideas were forthcoming, probably because my surroundings were so prosy and unromantic. So just as soon as I finished, I called Milly, and we went for a walk. i As we walked, the moon rose over the treetops, and, mentally, we both composed several lines about it. Presently a dog, rightfully named Dumbbell , appeared, pursued by a white cat. We laughed. The charm was broken, and we were unable to recall our ideas on Moon-Rise , but Milly recited an impromptu epic on The Retreat of the Dog. Next we approached the Incline. I decided to write on - The Lights of the City, as this topic seemed to leave plenty of space for imagination, exaggeration, and such things. Milly decided on The Beauties 'of Springtime. We walked for some time in silence. I had a definite subject, I succeeded in hammering out five lines. Milly composed six. Then we went home. H - ' The next day, in my first period, which was a study, I wrote down the lines composed the evening before. But, try as I would, I could make up noxothers, probably because I lacked a good mental picture of The Lights. So I dropped that topic and triedlothers. When the bell rang, I had written-outside of the work on The Lights -exactly twelve lines, scattered over nine different subjects. I stopped work on my poem-to-be, and thought of more practical sub- jectsfor the rest-of the morning. . I At noon, I ate at the cafeteriaf with the regular crowd. The Freshies called us That Silly Soph Set. But we weren't very silly that day. Fully half of us had our heads in the clouds, for we all had poems to write, and said poems were due at the sixth period. After lunch, Milly and I set out for a walk, armed with pencils and notebooks. Milly must have been thinking poetry all morning, for when we reached Palliser's orchard, she set down under a cherry tree,- and wrote thirteen lines at one sit- ting! Butof course, that was just like Milly. She claimed to be non-poetic, like the rest of us, but we knew enough not to believe her. It often took some time to get her into the poetry-writing mood, or for her to decide on a good subject, but, given these, she could spout poetryi' until we said she equalled Matthew Arnold, her favorite poet. Correcting, re- 20' SPECTAVTOR vising, and sticking' in a bit of synecdoche, took but a few minutes. And lo! Her poem was finished. She wrote about King Silver Tongue, and based her poem on the old tra- dition concerning the Indian Mound. This poem was later accepted for The Phoenician , .our school paper. ' Milly's poem completed, we strolled 'back toward the. school. On the way, fl Wasdoing some desperate thinking. Finally l hit on the bright idea of telling about my trip to Twin Tunnels. This didn't sound romantic enough for Milly. But after l told her of the old tradition connected with these tun- nels, of the deep, mysterious pool in one of them, and the lovely little mountain dell at its end, she was convinced that Twin 'Tunnelsi' would Umore than do as a subject. X Needing extra nourishment at this stage of the game, we went into Johnnie's store for peanuts. There, l wrote the first eight lines of the masterpiece. Then, on re-reading these lines, l found that l had no lyric description, some metre, and no figurative speech. So l proceeded to rack my brains for .a moment, and then condensed line one, wrote in two metaphors, a simile, one example of metonymy, and a would-be paradox. Next, l changed the entire meaning of line five, in order to obtain alliteration. All during asse-mbly period, l worked feverishly, either poring over a dictionary or Book of English Synonyms, or '-'counting outu the metre on my fingers. As soon as l com- posed a line that seemed fairly good, l scribbled it down and hastily attacked another. ' 1 A ' In due time the bell rang, and llwent to my fifth period class. There, with one eye on the Caesar teacher, and the other on my paper, I attempted to punctuate the poem in- telligently. Shortly after l had finished, the bell rang, and we went to English class. Some of my classmates were still ucounting out metres, or hurriedly sticking in figurative speech. But we, the more fortunate members of the class, who had finished, rattled our papers importantly, to let Miss B. know iof our success at writing lyric poetry. ' .. Smiling, Miss B. stepped forward and said, You know, I haveia great deal of Senior and Freshman Work, that I want to finish, so I shall give you another day on your poetry. I looked at Milly. Milly looked at me. Oh! Dear! A perfectly good noon hour spoiled for nothing! After all that L gg Q r X SPECTATOR 21 l hurry and flurry, tool . We wouldn't admit it then, but we really enjoyed Writing those poems. i 13:20 Friday ' lrene Devlin, '24 X What a thrill you receive when some one says: This is Friday, but how insignificant it is when compared with the tingling sensation that runs through you whenfthe gong ana nounces 3:20. Even though you have been watching the clockifor the last fifteen minutes and know the exact second the bell will ring its clanging ,has all the wonderfulness of a sudden discovery. When 3:20 arrives it means freedom from the grind of one long, long week of weary plodding, of useless agony and of feverish haste. You may be yourself till Monday and Monday is oft in the future. And then who knows, some- thing may happen to prevent yoursreturning when that time arrives. Monday! what's Monday? Why you will ,never think of itrunless you are very pessimistic and pessimists should make their appearance only the first of the week. The seventh period is the hardest to endure when Friday afternoon comes. Imagine sitting in a geometry class expected to be able to do innumerable problems and theorems.

No matter how bright or how industrious the student may be it is almost im- possible to pay close attention while someone juggles,A's, B's, X'S, Yis and Z's around without any apparent reason., At that time l am ready to agree with the educators who say that mathematics has no place in the curriculum of a High School pupil.

V Oh, lVlary, l sold ten thousand dollars' worth of pianos toTurner's Company in Georgia and the boss says l am now entitled to a month's vacation plus one-thousand papers on the clear-just think one thousand to spend extra now on our honeymoon. We have only one week to wait for we shipped the pianos yesterday. , So Bob and Mary planned-as they generally did- happy times when the piano money arrives. E The next day Bob was in his height of joy when the president opened his office door and said: Bob, Turner's have decided to return the pianos. They'll arrive on the 5:l5 freight on the Georgia Liner. , ' I What, return them! exclaimed Bob. iiwhy l'll take them right back and see what the trouble is myself -and snatching his hat he was gone. ' - On the Hve-Fifteen boat the pianos arrived but Bob ship- ped them back. The next day a tired but anxious Bob climbed the steps to Turner Bros. office. At the door he met Mr. Fred Turner. Mr, Turner, we have had a little misunderstanding, l believe. Mr. Turner, a little nervous man with twitching black eyes and a twisted mouth, turned with great surprise on seeing Bob. Bob continued: The pianos were returned but l ship- ped them back because I knew you wanted them. Just what is' the trouble? in ' T Well-er, you see-er, after we had orderedyours-er we decided the price was too high, so we decided to order a shipment from Fisheris firm instead, returning yours. ' - iiwell if-H but Bob didnit finish this sentence thinking it would injure his company's reputation, so instead he said, 'Tm Very sorry, lVlr. Turner, but could we not have a re- arrangement ? ' ' ' ' No, no, we don't want. more trouble so good-day - and with the bang of a door Bob was alone. X .-X, .,., X Q -l V, + 1 N,,, SPECTA'TOR 23 . Now what do you think of that! I won't go back until those beastly pianos are sold, for after all the planning lVlary's made l wouldn't do it! ' Going over to the wharf he found he hadn't enough moneysto return the pianos. Where's this ship headed for now?i' he asked one of the sailors. Honolulu I I'll just stay on, Bob thought and made arrangements with the captain who was anxious for someone to go along as company for himself. ' ' At four sharp they- set sail. For two weeks everything went nicely but at the end of this time a terrific gale rose and the ship was driven out of its course. Two days later it anchoredin the harbor of a mysterious island where the captain decided to stay until the storm had passed. I The sailors stayed on board for close to the ship, but the Captain and Bob roamed. X After miles of walkingialong the coast they came upon a hut smooth boarded and painted-very peculiar to see one such as this here.. They knocked and a very old man with a long white beard and snowy hair, opened the door. ' , They learned that he had been a minister, then a mis- sionary, and natives had once attacked him on a large island about fifty miles south of this one and he had escaped in a row boat to this island. He told them all about the island, its wealth and how the native king controlled all the gold. Then he told of the curious Ways of the natives-one being about the king'-s twelve wives of whom the king himself was afraid. V After this visit they returned to the ship. The next day Bob thought that perhaps, he could sell at least one of his fourteen pianos to this missionary so he invited him over to the ship that afternoon. When the missionary arrived Bob played it for him. This pleased the missionary very much for he had not heard beautiful music for years. When Bob asked him if he did not want to buy it fforithe missionary could also play, the old man said he would like to, but the king of that island owned all the gold. Bob played for him anyway seeing his great love for-music. i 7 x ! 24 s'P1zcTAToR Suddenly, out of the wilderness, came a war whoop. Then a long procession of black dancing barbarians came until about one hundred had passed. Then as many more followed pulling a cart in which a man and woman were Oh, that's the king's thirteenth wife, exclaimed the old man. . ' Bob not wanting them to 'think he had noticed them kept on playing. Suddenly the cart stopped and the negro girl jumped out and ran to Bob tapping him on the shoulder and pointing to the pianos. Bob not knowing what to do finally said Good after- noon. ' , A . This strange language frightened the girl, she ran back to the king. Bob thought she was angry with him the way she screamed and -jibbered to the king. The king, however, approached Bob, and said some- thing to the preacher, who in turn asked Bob, Can he buy this piano? U , Q , Bob, very much surprised, answered, Yes, Yes, and began playing while wife number thirteen danced. That afternoon they took the piano to the kings palace and immediately wife number thirteen began pounding it, .harmoniously indeed. On hearing this strange noise the other twelve wives quickly came when they were told it was for the new wife they began fighting her and the king. The king, at last, succeeded in escaping and running to the old man he asked if he could buy twelve rnore pianos. Bob, on hearing this, took the sailors and in a short while they had -all but one of his pianos sold and at three times as much gold as they were worth. B The next day the sea was calm and clear. The ship set sail for Honolulu--without any pianos for Bob had given the missionary the remaining one for being so kind to them. Two days later the ship sailed for the States with a new Bob-510,000 extra and a happy future awaiting him. f L H- Y k SPECTATOR ,25 The Mystery of the Diamond Stick Pin X Marion Varner, '24M Among the beautiful hills of New England there is sit- uated a boys' boarding school which has been the favorite of numerous aristocratic families for more than seventy-five years. Hardly a boy attended there whose name had not re- echoed through the ancient halls and had not appeared on the records of the school at some earlier date. The very name of this place of education signified honest manhood. No unmanlyiact had ever occurred to blemish the standards of the school. ln this school, as at all other schools, were many clubs and social circles but the most interesting one and that around which mystery centers was the Friendly Four. This club was composed of four boys namely: Bob Montgomery, a strictly modern youngster of sixteen and a descendant of a family well-known throughout the Southg jack Morris, an ex- ceedingly popular youth and a descendant of a Western familyg George Watson, an unusually talkative lad but through all a good sportg and David Lee fsometimes called Davyl, the most studiious of the four., With these four different types of boys you can well imagine that the f'Friendly Four was quite a successful organization and one that was much envied throughout the school. I might also add that Jack Morris and Bob Montgomery were ideal room-mates, in fact the most ideal in the school. I The Friendly Four met on this particular evening for the first time after the Christmas holidays and naturally the boys were full to the top with new experiences. They first began by each naming the gifts which the so-called' Santa had bestowed upon him. After each boy had described some of the gifts which' he had received Bob showed them a stick-pin which his mother had given him. It was made of beautifully carved platinum -in the midst of which was set an unusually pretty diamond. It was a pin which was very attractive, and being human the boys were interested in it. The conversation than drifted to other incidents Ysoh that before the boys realized it was time for adjournment. The following day returning to his room Bob found a hastily scrawled note from George asking him to attend a 26 SPECTATOR lecture. Having nothing else to do he decided... to attend the lecture but just as he was leaving the room he remem- bered his pin. Returning to the room he opened the drawer, got the box and found that the pin was gone. Where? What? Who? Why? were the questions which cbnfronted him and hastily putting on his hat he ran to -George and Davy's room. There between pants and gasps he managed to -tell his story. George and Jack fwho was visiting with themj immediately sympathized whole-heartedly, but Davy, the studious remained silent. ' Bob reported his loss to the faculty and immediately a search was made, but, finding no evidence of the theft, the affair passed over. Everything went smoothly for several Weeks when one day George awoke to find his watch gone. Everybody sympathized and offered suggestions for finding it except Davy, and he, when spoken to, concerning it colored furiously. When several weeks later neither the watch or the pin 'had been returned rumors began to be circulated to the effect that Davy was the thief, but he himself had not as .yet heard any direct accusation. One day while walking over the campus he overheard a conversation in which it was intimated that Dave was the thief. He became so furiously angry that he vowed not to rest until he had found the thief. One night David was walking down the street alone Cas he usually appeared since the theftl when' he saw Jack with his hat placed so as to nearly cover his face strolling down the street.. Dave unconscious followed him when sud- denly Jack disappeared. He went to the spot where he had last seen Jack and found himself before a gambling den. He entered and stationed himself behind some hangings. From this position he peered into a dirty room where he saw Jack Morris with four half-drunk men. By little snatches of conversation he found that these men would probably be valuable to the police. He reported what he had seen and heard, and some policemen came to place the men under arrest. Dave soon learned that Jack, of the good family, the least suspected of all was a tool for a powerful band of swindlers. They were all arrested and punished according to the theft each had committed. ' Dave was thus freed from suspicion while from that day the club became The Friendly Three. X SPECTATOR 27 rincipafs Page Time Lost, Lost Forever l cannot shirk the duty of reminding our high school pupils of the very great importance of avoiding on their part of any and everything that is a waste of timeg they owe this to the public, to their parents, and more to themselves. A The tax payers through the Board of' Education have provided the very best of facilities for a thorough and prac- tical- education for the boys and girls of Johnstowng to this end it is necessary that no time be wasted by them. The daily school session consists of five hours per day. There are but five days per week and but nine months a year. Look about you, boys and girls, and make note of the exten- sive and costly outlay made by the citizens to get the best possible results from the five hours per day, five days per week, nine months per year. Remember that poorly prepared lessons cause a serious waste of time, and remember what has been said of the Water that has gone over the dam-lost, lost forever. The present is your golden opportunity. Time wasted in high school will haunt you throughout life. The present is more valuable than any time in the future. Every hour wasted in high school makes you just that much less efficient for life. Time is moneyg but time properly utilized in- high school is money that will yield a hundred fold. Make use of time, let not advantage slipg Beauty within itself should not be wasted: Fair flowers, that are not gathered in their prime Rot and consume themselves in little time.

' l x KSPECTATOR 2? ditorials Spring Fever This is the timeof the year when pupils are apt to suffer from so-called spring-fever. Let this be a friendly warn- ing, Don't fall down on the job. To the Seniors especially does this season mean a good deal. Within two months the list of graduates will be made and the honor roll students listed. Now is a good opportunity to raise marks. We can't afford to have spring-fever. If we feel the symptons coming on, let us put into practice that little formula of Dr. Coue's:- Every clay in every way l'm getting better and' better. Perhaps auto-suggestion can help where the will-power is not strong enough to resist spring-fever. ' E. N. N. uniors We wish to congratulate the members of the Junior class on their hearty response to the Spectator. For this Junior number, the editorial staff was fairly deluged with stories-stories of every type and description. It was our only regret that all those submitted could not be published. This is true school spirit, Juniors. Keep up the good work! A Seniors , ' lt has always been the ambition of every Spectator staff to make its Senior Number the best. The task, there- fore, has become more difficult with each school term. Seniors, it is now the time for your numberg its success lies with you. 'You may well follow the example set by the Junior Class, and make the literary department the largest as well as the best so far accomplished. Rudyard Kipling says: lt ain't the individual nor the army as a whole, . But the everlasting team-work of every bloomin' soul. 4 1 3,0 SPECTATOR I Let us prove our school spirit by having the Ueverlastin' team-work of every bloomin' soul. .... . Social Functions A social function to a live high school student is a time and place to rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for it is there that the hopes and wishes of school are realized. A high school dance is a place where class distinctions are thrown aside and participants-be they seniors or sophomores, have a really enjoyable time. To see one's good friends, with their good friends in a place where all good friends gather for enjoyment and relaxa- tion from school routine, is worthy of much planning, and anticipation. After days of hard school work, a dance or party appears like an oasis, where one may find relaxation and refreshing enjoyment. It may be said that the social functions of school are the lamps to the feet of the students, aiding them to become more interested in school activities. One thing which is appreciated by the participants at a social function is the gentlemanly conduct by high school students. This greatly-to-be-desired quality is peculiar to a school function, everyone being intent upon having the best time, and most enjoyment possible. Are social activities the right thing for the school at large? They are, when properly conducted. I W. Mel-I. .l A Correction Through an oversight, the attractive cover design for the March number of the Spectator was not accredited in the table of contents. It was the work of Lynn Conrad, one of the art editors. A f . 1 SPECTATOR ai chool News Jay Bollinger The Dramatic Club, consisting of Term Vll and VIII pupils who are interested in study and acting ofiplays, was organized February 28. The following officers were elected: President, George Leeg Vice-President, Raab Hamiltong Sec- retary, Pamela Mcwilliamsg Treasurer, Nathaniel Griffith. The work of the club is under the direction of Miss Ulery and Mrs. Roudebush. L Interesting chapel exercises were held on March l and 2. Mr. Henderson,-extension officer of the La Salle Univer- sity, delivered an address on Value Equals Individual Minus Supervision. ' ' Regular chapel exercises were held' March I4 and I5. Mr .Yoder, a profesor of Juniata College, addressed the up- per classmenc on What Juniata College Has to Offer to the High School Graduate. Mr. Yoder also sang several pleas- ing solos. Cloyd Luttringer made an announcement con- cerning the Term VII Class activities. ' -.-......m. V On the mornings of March 22 and 23 the students wit- nessed a moving picture entitled, The Making of an Auto- mobile. The picture, which showed the development in the making of an automobile from the separate parts to the fin- ished product ,was very interesting and educational. Dr. Earl Barnes, the noted lecturer, delivered a series of lectures on Practical Psychology in the High School. The series began March Zland ended April 6. These lectures at- tracted wide attention and were attended by many pupils. The A-B Club held several meetings during the past month. The chief topic of discussion was that of the club's insignia. Gold pins, accompanied with a bar of ribbon to denote the number of the award, were selected. The mem- bers of the club also decided to have an A-B. chapel in the near future. ' Q 32 SPECTATOR The Term VIII Class held a St. Patrick's Day Party in the Gymnasium of the High School on March l7th. The Gymnasium was appropriately decorated for the occasion. The dance favors and refreshments reflected the spirit of the season. EDWARD HEILMAN Edward l-leilman, a member .of the Senior Class, died March 6. l-lis death-was the occasion for sorrow and regret not only in his home but also among his many friends. Edward was a fine scholar and had held membership in the A-B Club for several terms. He was also a musician whose achievements were always a source of credit to his class and to the school. His finest qualities can only be appreciated by their loss in his death. A X A large body of the Senior Class who attended his funeral paid a tribute to him which showed the high esteem in which he was held.

SL Josephs Prep. Chronicle, St. Joseph's College, Philadelphia, Pa. A We have received two issues from you and wish to con- gratulate you on the fine appearance of your paper. The stories and poems found in your journal are probably the best that We have read in any of our ,exchanges this year. Thistle, Scott High School, Toledo, Ohio. Without doubt your Freshman Thistle is a wonderful success. The Freshmen of '26 can feel proud of their issue. They have established a splendid precedent for the coming Freshmen. The cuts in your paper are more numerous than in any of our other exchanges. The Mountain Echo, Altoona, Pa. We were very glad to hear from our friend across the mountains after, several months of silence and to see that the Mountain Echo still maintains its high standard. Your lit- erary editor certainly needs to he complimented on the quan- tity and quality of the stories. We delight in reading Shavings and might quote a few lines of good advice to the-Freshman: When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the mind is low and the lessons high, ' When you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, ' Rest if you must-but do not quit.

Their combined capital was small, but they made up, in courage and aggressiveness, backed by a reputation for honesty, what they lacked in money. With no funds to purchase a delivery outtlt, they went from house to house on foot carrying their wares in a large basket. Today from this humble beginning has developed the greatest commercial enterprise in the world. Buildings that cover an entire block in the heart of Brooklyn, N.

At her own door at last, she fitted the key into the lock. Something was wrong, it would not turn. She drew it out and tried the handle. The door opened, and the girl stopped short in amazement. What could it be? Had her small room doubled in size and the furniture trebled? Her imagination always active, for one wild moment suggested that some fairy god- mother had wrought this miracle. But, then the dull reality shattered her foolish castle-she was in the wrong room. She walked to a window and looked downg yes, there was the back yard she usually found below her four houses away. She had simply entered the wrong door, she must retrace her steps. She paused a moment and made a careful inventory of her surroundings. Big, roomy, comfortable chairs, with beau- tiful tapestry coverings-it was a sitting room--no offensive bed behind a faded screen. What woman owned all this? She looked around for traces- no sewing. Pipes! it be- longed to a man! She must go. She moved toward the door but the bright, warm fire in the large beautiful fire-place held her fascinated. A piano too! And not to teach the children on, but to enjoy. Here some man lived in comfort, while she slaved all day with her teaching. Suddenly she heard the sound of rapid foot steps. She tried to escape but it was too late, the door opened and a man stood before her. se S-ILECTATOR How do you do, he said, 'Tm sorry to have kept you waiting. Where is lVlrs. Esterbrook? I-I-she--she couldn't come, stammered the girl. Couldn't come-Oh l'm sorry, said the young man. She said she would come if she could, but-l had bet- ter go. Not a bit of it, the man said laughing. Now l have you here I shall not let you go. It was very brave of you to come alone. You know brothers-in-law are presumptuous things. l-le smiled at her and looked at his watch. You must have waited a half hourg l said four o'clock, l'm sorry. She lowered her eyes. I was late too, she replied, and felt a horrible weight lifted from her. They surely could not be comingg she could go in a moment, he would never know until she was beyond reach. But she reckoned without her host. Draw up closer to the fire, he began, you know l won't see you before the Wedding and l want to know some- thing of my brother's wife. Bob said l must see something of you before you and he left for Paris, and l will not be able to go west for the weddingf, She must say something, she must get away in a moment, but for a moment she must enjoy this extraordinary situation that fate had thrust upon her. You think you will not be able to come to the wed- ding, she queried blushing. ul think not, he replied. But tell me how you came to know Bob. l-le was surprised at the deep blush that answered his words. Don't you thin.L.i.t..is rather warm in here? tempor- ized the girl. He got up and opened one of the windows and then stooped and picked up a letter from his desk. Why, here is a letter from Mrs. Esterbrookf' he said. Why didn't you tell me? Oh please, don't open it now, wait until l have gone. l'll explain later. As you like, he said. But to go back to Bob. Bob and l never could understand each other, and you are not exactly the girl l thought Bob would choosef' What did you expect? she asked. SPECTATOR 67 Well, frankly, a silly little blonde thing with curls flying around her face. Strictly speaking you are more of the type that I should have chosen. A mischievous gleam sparkled in her eyes and she added That is--if I should like you. Of course, but you would know, he replied. 'iWhy? she demanded flushing. Why? Because I would make you. I am a Very determined fellow and I usually get what I set out to get. Then followed a short pause which was broken when she leaned forward and said, Do you really want to know why I accepted Bob? He nodded. She kept her eyes on the floor. Because I wanted a home. Why--why werenit you happy with your aunt and uncle? he demanded. She shook her head. No, and Bob was so kind. The man started to pace the Hoor. But she continued, I came to tell you that I have chang- ed my mind. I have broken my engagement. What, broken your engagement! he said in a startled voice. But why please explain. Well, a girl just like you thought Bob would choose-. Oh yes, I see. Just like Bob, I thought it would be that way. You certainly aren't Bob's type. But I hope you didn't feel bad about it. I Well, I did at first but not any more. You see Bob IS1. Yes, yes he interrupted. Bob is quite a flirt and-and he is somewhat fickle and I thought it best to break the engagement. I must go, she rose nervously, I came-. A sudden desire to tell the truth swept over her. Only one or two more lies and she would be out of it. I came to see what you were really like, Bob said that you and he were just as different as day and night. Well if you must go, you will allow me to accompany you to your door, he said. Oh-no, no. Mary, he said. She started. 68 SPECTATOR You will allow me to call you that, I was almost your brother. But, I am going to be your friend. When mayl come and see you? The girl flushed. Never. Why? he urged, 'ijust because you aren't going to marry Bob is no reason that we shouldn't like each other, is it? U . No, she replied. Well then, your address? Oh, no. I'll ask Bob for it, he will give it to me. Wait until you hear the story from Bob and Mrs. Ester- brook, then if you will look you will find me. Find you? he repeated. Yes, tomorrow will be Sunday, and if you stand on the steps of this house at l0:30 and look up the street you will see me. She moved toward the door, but suddenly stopped and drew from her bag a small memorandum book out of which she tore a page. She scrawled a few hasty lines on the paper, folded it and laid it upon the table. At the door she turned to him. Read Mrs. Esterbrook's letter first, then mine. But wait until you hear the door slam. Good-night, she said breathlessly. 'iGood-night, he replied as he held the door for her to go. ln a minute the slam of the outer door reached his ears. He tore open Mrs. Ester-brook's letter and read--. My dear Philip:-Mary and l had to return unexpect- edly to Cleveland. We are sorry to miss the last opportu- nity of seeing you before the wedding. Yours sincerely, Louise Esterbrookf' Was he seeing things or not. l-le hastily opened the second. Forgive me. l am not Bob's Mary. l got into the wrong door. Your fire and room were so cozy that I couldn't leave. Then you came and you were so-kind. Philip stared at the paper for a minute, then grabbed his hat and dashed out into the street. But no solitary girl- ish figure was visible, and he returned to his room. There he threw himself into an easy chair before the fire to smoke and-to dream. SPECTATOR 69 The Clothes and The Man Jean McDougall, '23 I sat down at a table for two in the Fountain Room of Venture Inn and ordered tea. That is to say, I ordered iced coffee and pasteries-for I knew that Grace would join me in a few minutes, and she had requested that there be something sizzling cold and disgustingly rich ready for her upon her arrival. Then I rolled back my long gloves, stole a look in one of the many mirrors and relapsed into the lux- urious placidity of a purring cat. For' the Fountain Room in summer has a most soothing effect on warm, tired people with jangled shopping nerves, it is not large and glaring with glass prisms as is the main tea room, but it is small, dim, thickly carpeted, and well cooled by the play of water into a semi-circular pond against the wall. It is like a moss-floored grotto in a dull tarnished green and old gold, saffron lighted. I looked around the roomg there were more than twenty people, of whom nearly half were young men of the typical tea-houndn type. I could not help mentally applying to them the criticism so adequately expressed by an old friend of my grand-mother to the effect that the young men now- a-daysg they're poor squashy thingsg they look well enough, but they won't wear, they won't wear. Then there were various young girls in broad hats and summery gowns, who evidenced ennui in the casual finger- ing of their frosted glasses, and minced prettily with their ices, without any noticeable partaking. At the table nearest me sat a rotund dowager who twinkled and tinkled with jew- elry, and with her was a younger matron wearing a combin- ation flower garden, fruit- garden and aviary on her head, and a dress. that must of been designed in a rage and put on in a fury. But my glance traveled unarrested over these beingsg back in the farther corner it stopped at a table where three men were apparently enjoying a very belated luncheon. There was something striking in the combined society of these three for no one of them seem to coincide with the appear- ances or personalities of his companion: rather they all appear- ed to be living contradictions of one another. One was very large and several chinnedg his consumption of perilous mouthfuls was interspersed with intense, machine-gun state- 70 SPECTATOR ments, every word drawn with the sound of popping corks from the depths of his pompousness. Across from him sat an animated young fellow who was as attractive and agree- able to look upon as the stout person was unattractive and disagreeable to behold. Yet there was something too nslicki' in this young man's appearance-a little too much conceit in his easy grace and self-consciousness . His hair might have been patent leather, so smooth and black it wasg his features were too consistently regular and perfect, and his suit, tie and silk shirt had been fitted and chosen and matched with too great a degree of nicety. The third man who sat facing me, was the most interest- ing and the most inconsistent of the three. I found myself searching for the mot-juste whereby to classify him, and I could arrive at no conclusion other than that of poet I-Ie was small, slight, frail-looking, with large dark eyes and a sensitive expression. I-Iis hair, black and parted in the mid- dle, curled a little on the top of his head. I-Ie wore a care- less dark-blue suit and a shirt of French-blue charnbry with a soft collar of the same shade. I-Ie ate little, said little, and smiled seldomg he divided his attention between drink- ing from a tall glass and listening to the popping corks and the suave tones of his respective friends--who, however, seem- ed to regard him with great deference. For a moment I thought he might be an eminent violinist, but the blue chambry removed that thought from my mind and I came back to the idea of the poet. Curiously considering the matter, my revery was sud- denly interrupted by the simultaneous arrival of waiter, iced coffee, pastries and Grace--and it was not until all was set- tled and we had made inroads upon our sizzling cold and disgustingly rich repast that I recalled my poet in the corner. Then I asked Grace if she had any idea who that nice poetic looking young man was, and she after a polite fleeting back- ward stare, gasped and queried incredulously. Why! don't you know? Not the faintest idea, I rejoined. Think of him with a tiny mustache and a derby and a , c-. Charlie Chaplin! I almost shrieked. Grace nodded smiling. SPECTATOR 71 One Up Harry S. Phillips, '23 Hello Doc. Hello, Harry. Care if I go around with you? Not at all. just as soon as we get some caddies. They seem sort of scarce today. So Bert tells me. By the way, I think I shall hunt him up. I want to ask him about my follow-through. Suits me, I guess he is in the locker room, come on. uAnything exciting happen on the old home course while I was at Pinehurst? 'iAnything exciting? I-Iaven't you heard? Well, you don't know what you've missed. Suppose we go up stairs and get some ice-cream or something. You can see Bert later and I can tell you much better if I have something re- freshing. Did you ever see it so hot? Not since I last fixed my furnace. I-Ia, I-Ia.-Sit over there in the corner.-Lemonade for me, please. l'll take a large dish of strawberry, please. By the way, how's the new chef? I-Ie makes the most delicious ice-cream imaginable. Ah, here we are. Now then, whatis the news? This is fine lemonade. 'iwell to begin with--Aw, let me eat this first. iiweill never have time for a round at this rate. Anything to humor you. Do you, by any chance, know Elizabeth Gerard? That feminine golf-nut? H Mfhe same. She caused all the trouble. I'll admit this much, she certainly is beautiful enough to cause anything even if she does think, eat, and sleep on golf. Anyway there are two fellows in this town who would lie down and die for her. You know what I mean. I'll bet I can name one of them, Joe Logan, our best player when he's in the mood. Right you are, and the other is Bob Lang, not so much of a golfer, but a perfect Romeo. And she preferred the best golfer I suppose. Well, she leaned his way but was still doubtful. To make a long story short, she said the man of her choice would be the winner of an eighteen-hole match. just like a woman. 72 SPECTATOR However, everything was arranged and the match took place. And now she is Mrs. Logan? Now Doc, be so kind as to give me a chance and I'll tell the story. As l said the match took place. They both teed up on No. l and drove. Joe got his usual two-hundred yards and Bob, to everybody's surprise fincluding his ownl got a very unusual two-hundred himself. He even halved the hole! just a stroke of luck we thought. Along about the sixth hole l asked about the score. lmagine my amaze- ment to learn they were still playing even. Anything is possible in golf. Later I made a similar inquiry and found they were coming in on nine still even. Understand, l had not followed them further than the first green, expecting to hear of a walk-away. l then and there decided to view the second round. . Surely you are bluffing me! Not in the least. You should have seen Joe. He was purple with rage at being held even by a third rater. He somehow kept his emotions in check and they started the second round. I knew something unusual lay at the found- ation of Bob's playing and l closely observed him during the remainder of the match. V He did nothing dishonest, did he? Far from it, though what he did was so novel that it will make you laugh. But first we'll finish the match. All was still even up till the seventeenth. On the eighteenth tee l noticed something peculiar about the color of Bob's ball that l had not seen before. l looked closer. Good night! Bob hated Joe, such is the way of two jealous men, and there on the ball was a picture of Joe. Bob would take a look at the picture, wish it was Joe's face and drive two-hundred yards. Who but a desperate lover would have thought of such a thing? Believe me, there are ever so many ways that one can use to develop one's golf. Well the contest ended. All even so the judge said, but Bob won by one up, or a bride, for he eloped with Elizabeth that very night. What about Joe? He's through with womenf' So Bob the third rater, won by a bride over the champ. lt's the brain that counts, though. Shall we start now? Yes, our caddies are here. SPECTATOR 73 Gloriais Return Catherine Oppy, '23 On the morning of the class election, the situation began to seem hopeless on account of the disorganized state of things. The class was so evenly divided on all points that it looked as though neither side would ever succeed in elect- ing its nominee, since there was no enthusiasm for either of the candidates. It was decidedly an off year. The class of the year before had taken out of college all the dashing, brilliant sort of girls. ln fact, there seemed but little material for any of the usual college activities. The seniors stood in the halls discussing affairs with great excitement. They were going to class meeting that afternoon like sheep without a shepherd to vote by chance on whoever happened to be nominated. Suddenly a Sophomore dashed up the steps, her face glowing with importance. What do you think? she cried to the first group she met. You remember Gloria Temple- ton, who was to graduate last year, and went home at the end of her Junior year to come out in society? l saw her at the station, and l really believe that she is coming back to grad- uate. She had a trunk and suit-casesland her tennis racket and things! The news ran along the corridor very quickly. Gloria Templeton! Was it possible that she was to be a classmate- she, the darling of the college, who was regarded as the girl who could do everything and did? Thank goodness, she had come before the class election. The Fates pointed her out as the class president. In a momentary pause, every- one thought of some particular accomplishment in which Gloria was a leader. Then with one movement, they all turned toward the door. As if making a stage entrance for dramatic effect, up the steps ran lightly a tall, athletic girl with an alert face. Be- hind came a chauffeur, who carried two suit-cases, a pair of skiis, and a bag of golf clubs. The girl herself carried a vio- lin case, a tennis racket, and over one arm, a sweater with a letter on it. ln an instant, she was the center of a throng of girls, whose brown and black heads hid all but her sandy hair and dashing little hat. The first really distinguishable question came from Isabel 74 SPECTATO-R Connor, Whose forceful voice commanded attention. Why, Gloria, how did you happen to come back? Gloria turned to answer, but she was overwhelmed in the chorus from the seniors who were asking her to be a can- didate for the class presidency. Certainly, said Gloria crisply. A fresh group of girls arrived breathless, Why, Gloria, you old dear! You are back! Will you be candidate for the captain of the basket ball team? We've got a wonderful team this year, and if you'll captain us, we've got every team in New England beaten. 'iWho are playing? asked Gloria, and listened shrewd- ly to the names and positions. At the end, she nodded. ul certainly would be foolish not to captain a team like that. If you can elect me, I'll accept. lsabel Connor stirred to action again. Gloria, why did you come? she queried. 'il thought your people Wouldnit allow you. l thought you had to-.H She was interrupted by a dignified lady who advanced upon them with outstretched hand. l'm very glad to see you back, Miss Templeton, she said. nl have been think- ing of you lately, and as l am on my Way now to a meeting of the Young Women's Christian Association, l should like to know if you will act as leader this year and represent the col- lege at the Boston Conference. We expect to have an ex- tremely active year, and your talents as an organizer would help us very much. Gloria's face Hushed with pleasure. 'ilndeed l Will, Professor Morris, l am Very greatly interested in that sort of work. She turned away into ,a little room, full of girls by this time, and sank down on the davenport. Her dauntless young face showed haggard lines. Why, Gloria, you don't look a bit in good condition, cried one of her admirers. You've been living indoors too much. Up here you must get out more. Won't you help me to start a hockey club? Yes, I will, Gloria exclaimed. All last winter l used to get fairly raging at a man who said women couldn't play a good game of hockey. We'll get up a series and show him. Isabel Connor sat down by the girl and took her thin SPECTATOR 75 hand in her own plump one. Gloria, you haven't told me yet why you came back. I know it, Isabel, l started to a dozen times. Why you see, mother got Worried about-.H A girl dragging a cello past the room. As she caught sight of Gloria, she gave a glad cry. Glory be! If it's not Gloria Templeton dropped down from the skies. Our first violin is provided for. Senor Torres has been tearing his hair. I-le will be overcome with joy. just wait till l tell him! She hurriedly left the room. lsabel turned again to her friend. Gloria, why did-. Isabel Connor, if you ask me that again, l'll shake you. You know l'm nervous as a witch, and you've been asking me that question for the past two hours. Now listen, and I'll tell you! l was allowed to come back because mother was worried about me, and a doctor told her l'd have to have perfect quiet for a year before going into society, l'm all broken down nervously, so l'm going to rest for a year, donit you see? The Man Who l-lad Plenty of Time Marie Coco, 'Z 3 A certain man had intended to go to New Orleans, for he said, It is now winter, and l prefer to take my exercise with the fishing pole and the golf club, and not the snow shovel. l-le arranged his business, which was not very brisk, bought a ticket and a berth upon a sleeping car, and to all his friends he said, HlVle for the balmy breezes of the Gulf, with tarpon fishing and magnolia blossoms and a trip to Cuba, and maybe a look in at the big ditch at Panama. Now, therefore this wintry climate shall know me no more until after the Mardi Gras, and l will return with the flowers that bloom in the spring. On the appointed day he arrived early at the station with his ticket in his pocket, for he said, I like to have plenty of time. His train which was called the Limited, had not yet been backed into the stationg for it was more than half an hour before time for the train to leave. He said, I will 76 SPECTATOR buy a magazine, and I will sit and read, for it is great to have plenty of time. About the time he was started with the magazine, a man shouted through the megaphone. I-e-e-e-llinois Central Limited. Train for Cairo, Pa- ducah, Memphis, Vicksburg and New Orleans, now ready on track number sixf' The man with the magazine looked up from his maga- zine to the clock, and said, I have my reservations, l have my tickets, the light here is good, and as this story is a little ucorkern l need not hurry, l have Uplenty of timef, The man with the megaphone called a second time, but the man with the magazine said within himself, lt is a long ride to New Orleans, and l shall weary of the train. l will remain here for a little while, l have Hplenty of time. The man with the megaphone called yet a third time. But the man with the magazine was at an interesting place in his story and as he had grown accustomed to the noises of the station he did not look up, neither did he hear. The great clock of Time moved slowly but surely on. He came to the end of the story, rolled his magazine, put it into the pocket of his overcoat, then said, I may as well go on board. l-le picked up his bag and left the station. As he walked toward the gate he glanced at the clock, and a cold sweat started upon him. He rushed to the gate to behold the tail lights of the Limited, disappearing in the dim distance. He swore at the man at the gate and said, Let me through for l must catch the Limited. But the man at the gate answered, 'iYou may catch the Limited tomorrow or the day thereafter. Swear not, for you have plenty of time. Burglars Paul Olejar, '23 h School was over for the day and the children poured out of the only school house of the town of Spring Garden. They rushed out of the building laughing and shouting, hurry- ing to their play. The crowd thinned rapidly till only a few stragglers were left. Alton Burns, twelve, looked cau- tiously out of the door of the school. Seeing only a few SPECTATOR 77 girls he walked out furtively, glancing this way and that. But whatever he was expecting to see did not appear, and he soon ceased to look about. Suddenly from an alley sprang two boys, larger than Alton, Alton gave a look and fled with the boys in pursuit. They overtook him and held him. Leave me alone, Jim Wertz-Ouch! he cried, as jim twisted his arm. l'm go- ing to tell your mother on you, Bud Lang. E ls that so? asked Bud advancing threateningly. Alton stood his ground and Bud paused. 'iWell, let's tie him up anyway, he said. '6Come on, ordered Jim. Though Alton struggled, he was forced to go with his captors. They reached Jim's home and Bud produced a rope. We are going to tie you to this tree, remarked Bud. Alton struggled till he was exhausted, yelling at the top of his voice, but they tied him. Yell all you want to,,' said Jim, My mother isn't at home, Alton subsided. Now, will you go with Susie anymore? asked Jim. Sure, you're not my boss, replied Alton. All right, pinch him, ordered Bud did this gladly and Alton roared, I'll quit, I don't like her anyway. l like Mary Bridges. mls that so? asked Bud, iiwell, l do, too, and he pinched Alton again. No l don't, I was fooling. uYou've got to quit going with them. Alton discreetly kept quiet. l..et's play- robbers and policemen, proposed Jim to Bud. But, two can't play. We'll have to untie him said Bud, with a jerk of his thumb towards Alton. W-e-ll, l guess we will have to, said Jim, Do you promise not to go with Susie May? 'iAnd Mary Bridges? chimed in Bud. Alton sulkily agreed. Now, let's call the rest, proposed Bud as he untied Alton, Here, you go and call Jerry Michaels and Charlie Roth. Go yourself, returned Alton. l..et's tie him up again, said Bud seizing Alton. Let me go, I'll call them, said Alton. 78 SPECTATOR Don't be long. As Alton hurried off Jim inquired, 'iwill we have the policemen do anything to the robbers if they catch them, or what. We will be burglars. l..et's make them policemen and tell them they can do anything they want with us. They'll never catch us, anyway. l'm a policeman, said Jerry, coming up breathless. 'Tm a burglar, said Alton. UNO, Bud and me'll be burglars because we made the game up, said Jim. You can be robber after a while. lt's more fun to be a policeman, and then you can't run as fast as l can. Hls that so? asked Alton, ul can run faster'n any of you, why I can give you a big start and beat you, he declared. l'luh! said Jim contemptuously. He immediately started running. Alton was determined to show that he could outrun any boy there. He gained upon Jim and Bud till he was at their heels. lnstead of trying to catch them, as policemen were supposed to do, he tried to pass them. ln some way his foot caught Jim's and the two sprawled on the road. They picked themselves up slowly for they had been going fast and had fallen hard. The others crowded around. Oh, my kneel wailed Jim. And my elbow! chimed Alton. Aw, that's all right. Come on and play, said Charley Roth. Sure, come on. lt's almost supper time, urged Jerry. This hurts. l'd like to see you fall on the bricks and not get hurt, wailed Alton as he rubbed hisielbow. I'll bet l can fall down harder than you and not cry like a baby, said Charley. Aw, who's crying like a baby, demanded Alton. Jim had stopped crying and was ready to play. ul want to be a burglar, urged Alton, ul can run faster'n you. You can't, retorted Jim, can he? he asked turning to Bud who had just come up. Sure l can. I ran so fast I tripped you, returned Alton. Well come on, said Bud starting off. Jim and he ran over the roughest places they knew, over the fields and fences SPECTATOR 79 and across the brook where Jerry in his hurry fell in, but con- tinued the chase. Alton was tired out, but determined. I quit, announced jerry, it's supper time and l have to change my clothes anyway. At last ,lim sat down, too tired to run farther. Alton and Charley sprinted and caught him. They marched him to the tree where Alton had been tied, and tied him, Alton taking great satisfaction in making sure the knots were tied properly. Bud was hovering close, trying to get a chance to free Jim. With a sudden dash Alton and Charley captured him and tied him. Well, we captured you easy, said Charley. Oh no. We are better burglars than you. No sir, said Alton. Oh there's Susie, May and Mary Bridges. Let me loose, chorused Jim and Bud, struggling to free themselves. I-lello! said the girls as they approached. They stared in astonishment at jim and Bud, who seemed to be quite em- barrassed. Where are you going? asked Alton while Jim and Bud sulked. We're going to the store, Want to come along? asked Susie. Yes I'll come. X Let me loose, yelled Jim, that's my girl, you burglar. as as Let me loose, echoed Bud, that's my girl, you bur- glarf' Alton turned tantalizingly, HNOW, who is the best bur- glar? he demanded with a wave of his hand. Missing Apparatus Harold lVl. Nickel, '23 One morning, as Norman Winters and his chum, Leon- ard Gordon entered Normanis small laboratory, they found everything in disorder. Chemical and electrical apparatus were scattered about the room and several flasks and bottles were broken. Naturally, Norman was very indignant. l-le picked up a few pieces of broken glass and then exclaimed, l'll fix the bird that did this! 80 SPECTATOR After returning the various pieces of apparatus to their proper places, he discovered a number of articles missing. A retort, some glass tubing, rubber tubing, and a bunsen burner could not be accounted for. The remainder of the morning was spent in repeating several experiments which the boys had performed in Physics class, the day before. That afternoon Norman busied himself in constructing several queer looking electrical instruments. These he arranged about the room, running wires from them to a small box which he concealed in one of the corners. After testing the various circuits, he gave the whole a tryout to insure the success of his plans. About seven o'clock in the evening, Leonard received a telephone call. The caller proved to be Norman who ex- tended this invitation: lf you want to see some fun drop around at eight bells. With his 'curiosity thus aroused, Leonard decided to be present at the appointed hour. Eight o'clock found him at the door of the Winters res- idence. Norman appeared and conducted him to the labor- atory. We have only a few minutes to wait. Squeeze in behind that large box. Leonard slowly complied with his friends orders but began to ask a series of questions. Keep still, cautioned Norman. Leonard still insisted on asking questions but was soon quieted by the application of Norman's hand to his mouth. Silence continued for several minutes. Suddenly a window on the opposite side of the room was thrust open. The dark form of a man slid noiselessly through the window into the room. He moved cautiously towards a case which contained most of Norman's glassware. Opening the drawer, he withdrew a piece of apparatus used in distilling water. This he placed in a burlap sack, together with several flasks and a large bot- tle. just as he reached for another bottle, Norman touched a small switch on the box which he had concealed. A large spark leaped from the metal surface of the case, apparently striking the man in the arm, for he staggered backward falling upon the bag containing the apparatus. The sound of break- ing glass and a hoarse cry were followed by a desperate leap for the window. ln accordance with Norman's manipulation of another switch the window closed with a bang. The man, seeing that the door was his only means of escape rushed to- SPECTATOR 81 wards it only to be met with a cloud of red pepper. Over- come, he stumbled blindly over a box, falling flat on his face. Norman threw on the electric light and almost at the same moment a man in uniform entered. Theres your man, officer, said Norman, as he pointed to a mass of cuts and bruises which lay huddled on the floor. You did him up pretty bad, observed the policeman as he examined his prisoner. X After applying antiseptic and bandages to the man's wounds the officer hustled his bewildered captive off to the city hall. uDon't be too hard on 'mf' called Norman after the policeman. Then, returning to Leonard, he said, H About the fun. First of all, l did a little detective work and discov- ered that this fellow had stolen part of my apparatus to con- struct a moonshine distilling machine and that he intended to return this evening, so l staged this little performance to teach him a lesson. Her Senior Dance Beatrice Thomas, '23 Ellen Richards was a little old fashioned. ln the days of her grandmother she would have been a decided success. But in these days of jazz, bobbed hair, and slang she was a dismal failure. But Ellen was a girl, with all a girl's love of pleasure, and she was just graduating from high school. All the other girls were preparing for the senior dance and Ellen longed to go with rather a pathetic longing. But no one -had asked her and she could not go alone. Then came the day of the senior picnic. This day was worse than usual. Except for an occasional greeting as her fellow-students passed she was left alone. Suddenly the un- believable happened. ,Iack Chester, the leader of his set had taken a bet that he would spend the afternoon with Ellen. At first he had the air of one who was performing a very tir- ing duty, but Ellen gradually drew him out of this mood and before Jack was aware of it they were on friendly terms. They talked of many things. Jack ventured to speak of the senior dance. Ellen desired to avoid the subject. Then Jack began to think. He would show the boys that 82 SPECTATOR he was game. There was something fascinating about Ellen and almost before he had formed the idea, he said, How would you like to attend the senior dance with me? Ellen was startled to hear herself saying, I should like it very much. The night of the senior dance came. She could not tell what but something filled her with uneasiness as she climbed the stairs to her room. Presently a lively song from the street below aroused her and her depression vanished. She ex- ecuted a bizarre little dance step as she looked into her mirror and she imagined she saw a long beautifully decorated dance hall where the happy students were enjoying themselves and where Jack and she would soon appear. The thought thrill- ed her. The visions passed and repassed in the little wavy mirrors, but presently she aroused herself with a happy sigh and began brushing out her hair. l-ler gown lay stiffly disposed upon her smooth White bed. It was a lovely blue satin with an artistic touch of lace. She held up the dress and was sat- isfied. At nine Ellen was nearly ready. She had the silver slippers with the neat buckles on her feet and she had poured white-rose perfume upon her lace-edge'd handkerchief and was eagerly sniffing the scent when the sound of flying feet in the hallway struck her with instant fear of disaster. It was Min, the little girl from next door. The child burst into the room sobbing: lVla's sick again! l'm afraid she'll die this time! Oh, please come! and she grasped Ellen's hand frantically and dragged her towards the door. Minis mother had spells , and when she had such an at- tack no one in the neighborhood could quiet her except the gentle Ellen, who loved the frail little woman. From next door Ellen heard faint moans. She gave one glance at the lovely gown--then while tears of self pity ran down her cheek she ran hand in hand with the terrified child, stopping only long enough to say to her mother, Please ex- plain to jack. I can't go. It was two hours later that Ellen went slowly back home. The power that had enabled her to quiet the sick woman had left her weary. Jack would never forgive her for leav- ing him at the last moment. As she stepped into the house she was startled to hear SPECTATOR , 8? Jackfs voice. I thought I'd wait, he said half apologetically. Ellen stared amazed. Who led the Grand March? I don't know, I wasn't exactly interested seeing that- oh, you know how it is, when your girl-.H And Ellen's evening was not spoiled after all. A Chinese Mystery Rohr. Kam, '23 a Many people have related terrifying and veritable hair raising happenings to me,but the experience that caused beads of perspiration to gather on my brow was brought about by an ordinary collar which I took to a Chinese laundry in the hopes of having it cleaned. The laundry was operated by Bish Wone and Fanny Wang, two seemingly docile and backward Orientals 'who never bothered any body and who attended strictly to the operation of their small establishment, which adjoined the only bank in our progressive little village. From outward appearance the bank, known as Mfhe Farmer's Trust Co., was of solid material and supposed by the officials burglar proof. Because of this security the citizens had placed most of their money and many Liberty bonds in the protecting walls of the bank, and were losing no sleep over the matter, until-well, I was awakened about 5 a. m. with the cry All out,-somebody gipped the bank. After hastily slipping on my clothes I rushed into the street, and found many of my neighbors running toward the bank. Upon arriving at the Farmers Trust Co., I was confront- ed by three of the local police, who after seeing me with- drew into hasty consultation, and at length approached and gently informed me that I was under arrest. I will admit that I was surprised, but my anger rose when I was told to accompany one of their number to the local jail. A crowd began to gather, and seeing that resistance was futile, l accompanied the escort, but with reluctance. After reaching our destination I was taken before the chief, and reported as being suspicious, whereupon, despite my pro- testations I was lodged in a cold cell. ' Only a few minutes elapsed before my rival, Billy Kaish, a newspaper reporter, arrived to get the full details of my arrest. Upon being ushered into my presence he began ex- 84 SPECTATOR pressions of false sympathy. ln an unguarded moment l told him that I should like to see Gwendolyn, my fiancee. I-le politely assured me that he would take my message. lmagine my humilation, when he returned a half hour later and tri- umphantly handed me my ring, with a message that Gwen- dolyn never wanted to see me again. While brooding over my predicament a number of prominent citizens entered my cell and with profound apolo- gies from the chief l was informed that I was innocent--and free. Needless to say, after purchasing a newspaper, l hur- ried forth, but stopped short upon seeing my picture on 'the front page, and below it, an article telling of my arrest. The content was this: About 3:45 a. m., the night watchman had heard an explosion in the bank, and upon entering had found the safe blown open, and the valuables missing. He instantly in- formed the town detectives, who, upon investigating, found my collar in front of the safe.-You know the rest. Joe Blowen, a carnival man was caught soon after, trying to hop a freight car, and was returned to jail along with the uswagf' He had entered the laundry gone into the bank, taking with him my collar to hide his tracks. Needless to say, Gwendolyn soon forgave me and at present she is laundrying my collars. The Return Agnes Hartnett, '23 ln a small village in the northern part of Maine lived the Benton family. Mrs. Benton, a widow, was a small gray haired woman with a sunny smile and a pleasing disposition. She had two children, lVlary, a fourteen year old daughter and David, a sixteen year old son. The children were very fond of the mother who had done so much for them and they had affectionately termed her the little gray mother. Mrs. Benton was proud of her children and had planned great futures for them. David, however, was a source of worry to her for he continually talked about leaving his native town and seeking broader fields. One night lVlrs. Benton sat waiting for David to come home. As it grew later she imagined that at every noise SPECTATOR 85 David was coming. But he did not come that night and the next morning news was brought that he had gone away early the previous evening with Charles Mathews, a worthless fel- low. Mrs. Mathews bowed her head and, with tears stream- ing down her cheeks, prayed that her boy might come home again. Time passed, but the anxious mother received no word from David. She tried to smile but her attempt was piti- ful, for beneath the smile she hid a broken heart. As Mary grew older she began to show a strong inclin- ation toward literary work. Although she sent story after story to publishing companies, they were always returned. Since it was imperative that she earn money in some way, she secured a position in the town store and spent her evenings in writing. It was ten years after David's disappearance. Mrs. Benton had been gradually failing in health, although she was under the care of a capable physician. As her condition became more serious, she often expressed a desire to see David once more, to hear his boyish laughter, his quick, light step on the walk. Mary did her utmost to comfort her mother and to in- spire he with new hope for David's return. Since her moth- eris illness she had written more earnestly than ever. On her twenty-fourth birthday she again sent a story in. Within a few weeks she received, with overwhelming joy, a letter stating that her story The Little Gray Motheri' had been ac- cepted. Many people thought it queergthat Mary used her real name on the book, but she only smiled when anyone men- tioned the fact. ln the meantime David had drifted far since the night he left his little home town. I-le had gradually sunk lower until he finally became a tramp, working only when he had tO. One day when he had won some money, in a poker game, he was walking along the street, when he noticed a package lying on the sidewalk. l-le picked it up but did not open it until he reached the seclusion of a park bench. With a queer mingling of surprise and remorse, he gazed unbelievingly at the object. It was a copy of The Little Gray Mother by Mary Benton. As a rule tramps do not spend their time reading books, but with misty eyes David read page after 86 SPE-CTATOR page. It was a story of a boy returning home to his heart- broken mother just before she died. David seemed to know that the book was a last appeal to him to return to his own mother. l-le also realized that he could not return home in his present condition. With the book under his arm he hastened to the nearest barber shop and thence to a clothing establishment. ln a few hours he was walking toward the station, more like the David of his motheris dreams than he had ever been. It was about five o'clock when he boarded the train homeward bound. As the train sped on he review- ed again little details of his boyhood. At seven o'clock the next morning he was walking rapidly toward his home. Mary was in the kitchen preparing breakfast when he came. With a glad cry of amazement she welcomed him. To David's anxious inquiry about his mother, Mary told him all that had happened since his departure. Then quietly she guided him to the room where Mrs. Benton was sleeping. They went noiselessly to her bedside, David was leaning over her trying to control a desire to take her in his arms, when suddenly she started and cried out pitifully David, Davidln She was calling to him in her dreams. l-ler eyelids fluttered and in a few minutes she awoke to find him at her side. Her joy was uncontrollable as she clasped David to her heart with a fast failing strength. ul-le has come back she whis- pered, over and over again. ' Suddenly her grip relaxed, she fell among the pillows. There was a bright light in her eyes as she lay there with her cold hands clasped in those of Mary and David. She smil- ed and her eyes closed forever. His Bet Edith Otto, '23 You've got to pass that exam to-morrow, Bill, or else spend your vacation in making up that subject. And l want you to spend the summer with me. You'll surely fall in love with Sis, I'll bet! No, l won't. I clon't like girls. Even if l did your bet woulcln't be any good for l'm not going to pass this exam. 'Frisco' sounds good to me, though. The first speaker was young John Reynolds, the second was Bill Warner. They were room-mates at the Colorado SPECTATOR 87 School of Mines. Bill was from Pennsylvania and John from California. Bill was in danger of failing this examination in chemistry and had been cramming for the last few hours. If he passed it, it meant that he could accept Mrs. Reynolds's invitation to spend the summer with John. Well, work ahead. l've got some 'Math' to do so l wonit bother youf, At the same hour the next evening the boys were again studying. Too bad, old top, said John as he looked up from his book. I would like to have made good my offer but you'll have to stay here and bone up. A There was a knock at the door and Fred Arnold burst in upon them. K Ho, Bill! Mr. Knowlton wants to see you. Thanks I-lere's Where I'm given the invitation to drop chemistry. A few minutes later Bill came bounding into the room. ul go to California, John! You know the Prof. sent a notice saying I had flunked? When I got down there he handed me an A paper and asked Whether it Was mine. I looked at the A and then at the writing. l knew the writing was mine but l couldn't account for the UProf. Went on to tell me that he was not in the habit of giving credit to papers without names but when he had read mine and had seen what an improvement I had made, he decided to give me credit. I guess l thanked him a hundred times. I knew that spelt California for me. Gee, that's great, Bill! The last of June found the chums on their way to San Francisco where John's father owned an extensive fruit or- chard and a fruit canning factory. Their home was a palatial residence on Orange Avenue. Besides John there was a daughter, Muriel, who was a student at Vassar. John was two years Muriel's senior. Muriel was to make her debut this season and for the first time, Mrs. Reynolds was really taking an interest in her. Mrs. Reynolds' time was divided between social functions and beauty parlors. Neither John nor Muriel could ever remember having been out with their mother. Mr. Reynolds, however, had always been interested in his children. Out of courtesy for john's guest, Mrs. Reynolds was 88 SPECTATOR at the station to meet them. With her was a very attractive young lady. 'ilVliss Dixon, I want you to meet Mr. Warner and my son John. This is the young lady I have been writing you about, John. Muriel is a friend. of the family, Mr. Warner. The Dixons were neighbors of our until they moved to New York a year ago. Muriel has come to help plan the social functions for our Muriel, who will be here in about two weeks. lsn't she a peach, john? H Bill whispered as they drove home. g Watch out, 'old fellow, or you'll lose your reputation as a woman hater, John answered him laughingly. For two weeks Bill and Muriel saw much of each other. There was a constant whirl of gayety including charity balls, theatre parties, yacht races and lawn fetes. Finally the day arrived for the return of Muriel Ray- nolds. Mrs. Reynolds was to give a dinner dance for her, and their home was beautifully decorated for the occasion. Mr. Reynolds was short of labor during this season and the boys had gone to the orchard to help him. They did not return until seven o'clock. Where's Sis, mother? John inquired anxiously when Bill and he came down dressed for dinner. She will be clown directly. At promptly eight o'clock Miss Dixon made her apppear- ance. She was especially beautiful, John thought. John advanced to meet her, putting his arm around her. Bill looked his astonishment. John laughingly explained. Bill, l want you to meet my sister Muriel. Muriel, this is lVlr. Warner. But l-er-H, stammered Bill. 'il knowf' John replied. When l made that bet with you l couldn't possibly see how l could make good about the girl. l Wrote to Muriel and explained. She offered to help.

That was a good one on you. 'Tm ready to concede that youive won. If all bets turn out so delightful for the loser I'll spend my life in betting. Suppose you do,H Muriel said archly as she turned to greet the first of her guests. SPECTATOR 89 Nancyis Triumph Catharine Murdock, '23 Deep clown in her heart Nancy was disappointed. Very much so. The names of those who were to take the various parts for the class play had just been read. The seniors were enthusiastically preparing for this as their last triumph, be- fore bidding farewell to West End High School. Nancy's name was not among the ones chosen, and, althoughushe would be the last one to betray her feelings either by word or look, she had secretly hoped for a part, however small it might be. Instead of pouting she returned to her class room, and re- joiced with Helen, her chum over her good fortune, for Helen had been chosen for the principal part. Oh Nancy cried Helen, grasping the other's hand and dancing about the room with her, It doesn't seem possible that l should have been given the leading part. l could hard- ly believe it when l heard them call my name. Really l don't deserve all this. Of course you deserve it, Nancy quickly replied. Who else if not you? I am as happy about it as you are Helen. I will help you learn your lines, and we will rehearse them together at home, so that you may make this the most suc- cessful of the year's activities. Nancy was the only child of wealthy people who had adopted her when she was a baby, but they loved her dearly and granted her slightest wish. All this indulgence on the part of her parents, however, had not spoiled her and she still remained the quiet, lovable girl she had always been. But somehow Nancy lacked the pep and dash the others had, and they naturally took the lead. That must have been the trouble. Nancy was not a leader, but preferred to sit quiet- ly back and do her share by helping when the opportunity presented itself. If there ever was a time when Nancy had a desire to be in the public eye, it was now. She knew her mother and father would be there and she was always striv- ing to do what she thought would please them most. She tried to forget her own disappointment and glory with her chum over the honor the class had bestowed upon her. The girls did not see much of each other the next day, until near the close of the afternoon session, when Helen 90 SPECTATOR spied Nancy down the hall, and had just time before going to class to invite her to be present at their first practice that even- ing. There was much chattering in the auditorium as the boys and girls discussed their parts, Nancy helping much by her practical suggestions. The two girls returned to their home that night very tired but satisfied that the play was well on its way, and was going to do much to keep up the reputation of the class of '23, The weeks passed and the long looked for day was not far off. Helen was doing splendidly with her part, thanks to Nancyis help. One day as the girls entered the library of Helen's home, their attention was arrested by a large yellow envelope on the desk. It was a telegram to Helen who tore open the envelope and hastily read the contents. Oh Nancyf, she cried, Umy mother is very ill and I must go to her at once. She has been visiting my aunt in Kensington for the past week, I wonder what could have hap- pened to her. If I hurry I can go on the l l :26 train tonight. In their haste to pack Helenis things both girls forgot everything for a moment. Suddenly they faced each other. Nancy, what will I do? The play is only three days off and I can't fail them at this late date. Oh, what will I do? cried Helen in despair. Then her face brightened. Nancy', she began, HDO you think-Oh, could you take my place? you know my part nearly as well as I do. Please say yes. Nancy hesitated a moment before she replied, Yes, Helen, I know the part I believe I could carry it through, even though there are only three remaining days. For your sake I will take it and do my very best. You blessed angel, you will make a huge success of it lim sure. The next day Nancy started in a little fearfully on the task before her. The consternation of the senior class was relieved when they found Nancy was to be Helen's substitute. At last the opening for the play arrived. The curtain rose and Nancy faced a large audience. During the first act she was a bit frightened. Gradually she gained confidence and with the splendid support of the other characters the play ran smoothly. By the second act Nancy had completely won the admiration of her audience. Then came the third and SPECTATOR 91 last act and finally the climax. As the curtain slowly de- scended the applause assured the success of the play. It was a happy and smiling Nancy that returned home carrying with her a huge bouquet of roses as a token of appre- ciation from her class, and a sign of her triumph. The Brown l-lat Philip Curran, '23 The whole town of Midland was aroused over the 350,- 000 robbery of the Smith home. Newspapers head-lined the smallest development in the solution of the crime. Political leaders took advantage of the robbery to denounce the city government. ln fact, it was the main topic of conversation everywhere in the town. And then, as if to add more fuel to the fire, the Chief of Police announced that a total of 515,000 would be given as a reward for the capture of the thief. D The effect of this announcement was to increase even more the activity of the police department and of every de- tective agency in the town. But there was one person who more than all others the announcement had aroused. I-le was Clarian Davis, a young detective with a thirst for adven- ture and a conquer-the-world attitude. When the news of the 315,000 reward heached him, he decided to leave Pine Shore, his home town, the next day, for Midland. However, his uncle, Captain Royer, who was a police officer in Midland, called to see him and hinted that Mayer Morbey, a notorious criminal, had committed the robbery but that it was impossible to get any trace of him. The next day, just as Davis was ready to leave his home at Pine Shore for Midland, Captain Royce telephoned about some business matters he had entrusted to him. Everything's O. K. But what's the latest out there? impatiently replied Davis. Nothing much, only Mayor Morley's gone out your way. Davis's heart beat fast. At last the chance of a life time had come. Do you mean to say Mayor Morley is coming to Pine Shore? 92 SPECTATOR l believe that's what I said. But what does that matter to you? The question was lost, for Davis banged up the receiver and ran for the railroad station, reaching his destination just as the train arrived. Boarding it, he remarked casually to a passenger: You don't happen to know Mayer Morbey, do you? Mayor Morley! Why, I'll say I do! See that fellow over there with the brown hat-that's him. Davis walked over as directed and began dramatically: i'You're arrested in the name of the law! To his dismay, Mayor Morley never moved. Davis started out again: You're ar--H Beg pardon, Mayor, here's a young man to see you, said one of the Mayor's friends. 'LTO see mel exclaimed the Mayor, turning to Davis, Well, what can l do for you? H You're arrested and we got you good. Come along now or I'll use force. The Mayor was dumbfounded. He was to be the prin- cipal speaker at a banquet of his lodge in a city not far from Pine Shore. I-le could think of nothing he had done in his whole career which could be called a crime. What am I arrested for? he demanded in amazement. You know better'n l do, was Davis's curt reply. Don't know anything about the robbery, do you? The robberyli' yelled the Mayor. Non-performance of duty-just some new move of my political enemies. So the Mayor surrendered peacefully. Now that he had actually made an arrest, Davis knew not what to do. The next train for Midland did not leave for half an hour. Somehow he trusted his prisoner but then he reasoned it was not the proper thing to do. So he decided to take him to a small restaurant across the street and wait for the next train. He did this. Both men took off their hats and hung them on hooks. The mayor noticed that both of them had brown hats. Quite interesting, he remarked to Davies. Wouldn't it be interesting to collect all the men in the world who wore brown hats? Yes, replied Davies, not knowing what else to say. SPECTATOR 93 And here comes another man with a brown hat,H said the prisoner with increasing enthusiasm. Quite interesting! Quite interesting! Fifteen minutes passed and in another fifteen he would have his prisoner on the road to Midland, and then 315,000 and a reputation for life. With thoughts like these running through his mind it was no Wonder the mayor's soliloquy was lost on Davis. Another FIVE minutes passed and the man with the brown hat left, Then Davis remarked: 'il guess we had better start, five minutes till train time. Davis reached for his hat. Confound it! he exclaim- ed That fellow took 'my hat. Such luck! The mayor laughed. That's a good one, Brown hats! It's a good Ht anyhow, Davis answered impatiently. Two hours later they were in the city. To Davis, Mid- land was the big city and he felt smart in showing up those city fellows, as he termed them. What do they know about this detective business anyhow:-V, he thought. Davis marched his prisoner to the police station, where he found Captain Royer in charge. Hcongratulate me uncle, l have just arrested Mayer Morley, he said bring his prisoner forward. Next thing you'll be arresting the President, gasped Captain Royer, taking the matter as a joke. A political move I guess, spoke up the mayor. Whatl are you really arrested?,' asked Captain Royer, in surprise. Sure, said Davis, this is Mayer Morbey you told me about. You know, he continued, the robbery. The captain fell back on his chair and roared. His laughter could be heard all over the building. When he had recovered sufficiently he spoke: uYou've made one grand blunder. We want M-a-y-e-r M-o-r-b-e-y, not lVl-a-y-o-r M-o-r-I-e-y. Upon hearing this the mayor looked relieved and then seeing the joke laughed even more than Captain Royer had. It was now Davis's turn to look crestfallen but despite dis- appointment he took their jokes good naturedly. An exciting adventure all right but l would like to get the owner of this brown hat, was the grumbling attitude of Davis as he reached home. Perhaps it would be a good 94 SPECTATOR idea if I would try to find the owner's name in it. He shook the hat and from the lining the following note dropped out: Will be at the corner of Broad and Ninth St., at seven o'clock in Buick. Be ready and ask no questions. Every- thing O. K. Will blow three times. upretty interesting and pretty suspicious, too,H mused Davis. He examined the note more closely. I'll follow this up. That evening Davis stopped his Buick car, which he had borrowed at the corner of Broad and Ninth Streets and blew the horn three times. A man stepped from the curb into the car, 'Speed up, he yelled anxiously as he dropped a satchel at his feet. We want to get out of here as soon as we can. Davis did not so much as turn his head, but drove the car at high speed directly to the police station. Then with a quick movement he covered his man with a revolver. The man, off guard and surprised by Davis's action, was soon inside the police station. There was great excitement for the police officers re- cognized Mayer Nlorbey. ln a satchel in the car they found 345,000 in valuables. The whole force congratulated the young detective who single handed had solved a 350,000 robbery which baffled the whole police force of one of the largest of our western cities. Cien Pies A La lzquerda Paul Morrissey, '23 There were four of us in the smoking compartment of the Limited. Dr. Haynes, a well known scientist, George Ames, a noted lawyer, Bob Thorne and myself. Without warning the train stopped. A moment later a small, gray-haired man entered. ln his right hand he carried a heavy valise and over his left arm he carried a light top-coat. Dr. Haynes rose and, extending his hand, addressed the stranger, ul think live seen you before. You look like an old friend of mine who was my colleague at Oxford. His name was Charles Jordan. At Oxford? Of all the surprises, this is the biggest one, Haynes, was the reply. 4 SPECTATOR as 'Introductions followed. Haynes and Jordan talked about their university days. Finally the conversation became general and we drifted to the stock market. This interested all and we soon were discussing the merits and faults of various stocks. Jordan had said very little. Suddenly, Haynes burst out, i'Say, Jordan, whatever be- came of that old piece of parchment you had at Oxford. Did you ever find that buried treasure you talked so much about? H Jordan smiled, Ml still have that old parchment, but Haynes, l'm 'brokef l've spent almost two fortunes trying to find this hidden wealth but as yet l have come upon noth- ing. l looked at Bob. He was all attention. Addressing Jordan, he said, Won't you tell us about it. It sounds in- teresting. l imagine it would be exciting. l have read of wonderful discoveries and have often wished l was the lucky person. i'Only a few attempts have been successful, perhaps one out of a hundred. l know how you young fellows are. After you have used up a fortune or two, as I have, you will realize how difficult it is to find such hidden stuff and wish you never had attempted it. lf l tried, l believe I could find it. Bob was becoming too insistent, I thought, so I inter- posed laughingly, Bob, you never could find a treasure. Mr. Jordan has used up two fortunes. I-le has had the experience. l-le ought to knowf ' But Bob was persistent. Turning toward Jordan, he said Maybe you didn't look for it by good methods. 1 Perhaps l did not pursue the right methods. Yet the fact that l found nothing proves that either my map of the location is incorrect or there is no treasure for l have carried out all the directions of the map. I'd like to see that map, was Bob's rejoinder. As a last resort, l said, banteringly, Old man, I'1l bet you five hundred that you can't find the treasure. You couldn't find it, map or no map. Haynes, who had been silent during this part of the con- versation suggested, Ul..et Charley hold the stakes. l will testify to his honesty. You're on, answered Bob. In the meantime, Jordan had opened his valise and had 96 SPECTATOR extracted an old parchment and a piece of paper of modern texture. Bob and l wrote checks for the amount of the wager and gave them to Jordan. He spread the two pieces before us and said, Hln the first place the site is not far from Cascasia Pass, an unfre- quented defile in the Rockies. The parchment is mapped out in old Spanish, while this other is diagrammed in English. An Indian gave me the parchment. He said it had been given to him by his uncle. A friend of mine translated the writing on it and made this other map from it. I'll help as much as I can but l think you will have the same results as l have had. Bob was absorbed in the maps. Finally he asked, Ulf we find anything will you agree to divide with usl-'H There'll be no treasure to divide, Jordan replied dryly. At this point, Ames played his part by drawing up a deed and affixing his and l'laynes's names as witnesses. Two weeks later found us at the place where the treasure was supposed to be hidden, Cascasia Pass, situated on the lofty summit of one of the mountains of the Sierra Nevadas. Nearby was a rude cabin which Jordan had built years before. We consulted the maps, measured the distance from the Pass, that was designated by the spot from which the treasure site was to be measured, and began to dig, almost in the same spot Jordan had dug. Throughout all the proceedings Jordan stood by watching us skeptically, telling us that he had dug in the same place and had found nothing. Undaunted we con- tinued digging for several days, not only in the same spot but also in several places nearby and around it. At length, on the afternoon of the fourth day of digging, Bob threw down his shovel and said, with a sigh, I guess it's no use. I..et's fill up the holes and quit. There was a twinl-:le in Jordan's eye. You see, he observed, I was not wrong. Later that evening as we sat, outside the cabin, watching the sun disappear behind a neighboring ridge, l suggested that we examine the maps once more. Jordan and Bob agreed. I turned to the shelf where Jordan had placed the maps under a small block of wood and extracted them. Then a strange thing happened. A piece of thin white paper, in all respects like tissue paper, curled up on the surface of the parchment. We were amazed, but Jordan exclaimed, I remember. My SPECTATOR 97 friend placed a piece of fine tracing paper over the parchment in order that writing could be easily discerned as he had poor eyesight. Evidently he forgot to take it off. l guess the direc- tions are the same now that it's off, though. As the writing was very faint, we examined the parch- ment with a powerful magnifying glass. I had studied Span- ish While in college and l was able to translate the Spanish Writing on it. There was a dotted line drawn from a point, that we interpreted as the Pass, to a queer mark, underneath which was written in Spanish, Cien pies a la izquerdaf' Translated it meant, A hundred feet to the left. But, interrupted Jordan in excitement, 'ithe transla- tion my friend gave me was, 'Cien pies a la derechaf That means a hundred feet to the right. This word, iizquerdafn l interposed at the same time pointing to the map, 'imeans 'left'. iiwhat? Then the translation was wrong? All these years lost? He was almost overcome by agitation. Being highly excited we measured the distance of a hun- dred feet to the left and began to dig. Jordan was helping now. Before we had accomplished much, Bob exclaimed, wlor- dan, if we find anything, the first thing We come across will be yours. For several minutes we dug in silence. Then Jordan pausing for a moment, mused sadly, Guess we won't find anything this time either. He had only dug for a short time after this when his shovel encountered something hard. Soon he unearthed a small, rusty, iron box. Upon opening it, he found that it con- tained old gold and silver coins. Bob had, however, continued to dig. Suddenly his shovel came upon something heavy which upon digging a little more, proved to be a larger box. ln his eagerness, Bob exclaimed, Too bad, jordan, that we didn't get the first box and you this one. There was a sad expression on Jordan's countenance. lmagine our chagrin upon opening it to find that our box was filled with old armor, which might command a few cents at any junk-yard. We dug a little longer but found nothing and so we returned with our spoils to the cabin. Jordan was a changed man, despite the small amount of treasure we ob- 98 SPECTATOR tained. There was a twinkle in his eyes and a smile of con- tentment on his face. Bob, too, was happy. Well, old fellow, he observed, addressing me, nl guess l won the five hundred, but perhaps it would have been. different had it not been for 'Cien pies a la izquerdaf' And Jordan re-echoed the sentiment, H 'Cien pies a la izquerdaf Half a life time lost by an old parchment and 'Cien pies a la derechaf Half a lifetime and only this for iCien pies a la izquerdafi' Their Adventure Dwight Adams, '23 It was a sunny afternoon in June, i920 that John Breech- er and Henry Crawford were walking through a thickly wood- ed section of Germany. The boys who both were about eighteen years of age were Americans. Breechefs people had formerly lived in Germany. l-le had been left a consid- erable fortune at the death of his father, and since he did not know much about his ancestors he had decided to visit Ger- many. This is what he told Henry Crawford, who after much persuzsion, went with him as a traveling companion. Craw- ford could not understand why a young man who had every- thing necessary to be happy should choose to go on such an expedition. He suspected some other reason for the trip. After going down the wooded hill where we first found them they entered what appeared to be a deep ravine. Wishing to see more of the woods, the boys left the beaten path and cut through the underbrush. They had not gone far, how- ever, when Henry stopped suddenly. His chum, hastening to his side, saw him looking intently at a stone on which a small arrow had been cut. mlqhis looks as though it has been put here for a pur- pose! exclaimed John. l..et's follow it and see where it leads. After going some seventy-five paces they came to an- other marker identical in size but pointing to the right. Fol- lowing this direction the boys passed several more markers of the same type. The trail at last ended against a massive rock. sPEcTAToR 99 Thrilled with excitement, and remembering stories of hidden caves,they looked for an opening. John was the first to discover a small ring hidden in a recess of the rock. He pulled this and a section of the rock slid back smoothly. it was probably counter-balanced by another weight. To- gether they entered the opening and found themselves in a clark, narrow, passage-way. From his pocket John produc- ed a small flashlight. The passage in which they stood was cut in solid rock, and was at least twenty feet long. At the end was a roughly finished room. Henry discovered an elec- tric light switch at the doorway and pulled it. The room was immediately Hooded with light. The lamps were supplied with power from some hidden source since the boys could see no wires entering the rock. This first was bare of fur- niture,but opposite the entrance was a heavy iron door. On opening this the boys found a completely furnished experi- mental station. The walls were covered with shelves on which were boxes and bottles of materials and apparatus. ln one corner stood a desk on which were a typewriter and a large Wireless telephone outfit. The storage batteries, prob- ably destroyed by the action of the electrolyte, had not been used for a long time. John, in a hasty examination, discover- ed many kinds of explosives and rare chemicals on the shelves. Henry, who was a very inquisitive lad, found a set of electric switches. He pull one of these and heard a low rumbling sound. A loud crash followed this. His curiosity still, unsat- isfied, he pulled another large switch. There was a blinding flash resembling lightning. John and Henry rushed from the cave and did not stop until they heard a loud explosion. They looked back to see 'the remains of the laboratory dropping back to earth. The boys terrified by their act left the vicinity immedi- ately. Henry remembered the time of Carl Schurz, when a man was imprisoned for life if found guilty of attacking an arsenal. With the aid of their passports they were enabled to secure ocean passage at Hamburg. They left the country none too soon for news of the destruction had already reached the newspapers and officials. After the boys were once more in their home in Ohio, John showed Henry a short clipping from a German news- 100 SPECTATOR paper. He translated this for I-lenry's benefit. A summary of the clipping follows: On Thursday afternoon the people of H- heard a terrific explosion. On investigating its source an officer of the law found a huge crater torn in the earth on the govern- ment tract outside the town. This land belonged to John Breecher, formerly of H-. Breecher Went to America in l89l and became an American citizen. At the outbreak of the recent war his land was confiscated by the govern- ment and an experimental and research laboratory was built on it. This was constructed secretly since no one in this vicinity knew anything about it. It seems that a bomb was placed in the cavern when it was abandoned and some in- truder has evidently touched this off. Since no bodies have been found this intruder has been blown to atoms, providing a fit punishment for his crime. Well, commented Henry, I am glad that last part is not true. Then John explained, My real purpose in going to Ger- many was to find out about that very land. A clause in dad's will gave me possession of some land. It was this land on which the laboratory was built. Thanks to your curiosity, it is lost for me. Well, teasingly answered Henry, you didn't have to take me with you, did you? You wouldnit have been given the land anyway since land belonging to foreigners was con- fiscated and was not returned at the close of the War. At least l tried to blow a lot of it over here with us. The mystery of the abandoned caverns was thus solved to the satisfaction of the inquisitive Henry Crawford.

Once more, the last day of school and commencement approach. Once more the call of the world comes and enthusiastically, another class responds. But how different this year encl seems. It is cliflicult to realize that our friends, our school- mates, and our companions of years are to set out for them- selves in the big adventure of life. Their leaving concerns us so intimately that our minds are filled with conflicting emotions. , For the outgoing seniors, the regret of leaving old J. H. S. is, in a measure, overcome by the hopes which they have for the futureg for theythink happily of a new era in their lives. Members of the class of twenty-three, you are leaving old H. S. better for your having been here. Take with you happy memories of your four years as students. The school as a whole and especially the members of the class of 1923 l-2 who will take your places, wish to express deep appre- ciation of your Work, and their regret for your leaving. The school will remember you as a class, prominent in all the activities of the school, and its life. W. MCH. 116 SPECTATOR , Our Dreams Ever since We can remember we have been dreamers- even the most practical of us. When Very small children we belived in fairies and dreamed of kings and queens. As we grew a little older we eagerly snatched for pencil and paper to write. Though the result was merely a few scratches, We pretended to read it and dreamed of the time when we should go to school. As public school students we began to formulate plans and ambitions for the to-morrow.. Again during our high school career we have dreamed of the future and what it holds in store for us. Now, as we are about to leave high school, our senior plans show that we still are dreaming of great things to accom- plish. Some of us are dreaming of higher education and of entering the professions, others of our number are dreaming of great business enterprises through which they will be of service to the world. We may be useeing the world in bor- rowed colorsf' but what youth has not done so? ls it not our right, for I 'iWe are the dreamers of dreams, For each age is a dream that is dying Or one that is coming to birth.

SPECTATOR 121 Music in the High School Grace Broderick, '23 One cannot participate in High School life and not be- come interested in music. ln chapel semi-classical and folk songs are sungg which help the pupil to become acquainted with the songs that every true American should know. The two chorus classes that meet twice a Week are under the instruction of a competent instructorg and are taught songs that require time and work. These interesting classes train the student to appreciate good music. The history of music class, another phase of the mus- ical department of our high school, study the lives and com- positions of the famous composers. The pupils are also taught, through the medium of the victrola, the art of listen- ing to good music, and the appreciation of the efforts of the composers. In the School Music Class the pupils are taught sylla- bles, sight reading and the method of teaching songs to grade children. A well balanced orchestra furnishes music for the chapel exercises, and is frequently called upon to play for local or- ganizations outside of school. The band, another attraction in our high school, is composed entirely of students. Under a student director, the band plays for all athletic functions. This relieves the instructor and inspires responsibility among the students. ln the last few years the music department, under the direction of Mr. Odell has raised the musical standard, but it takes more than capable instruction to bring out the best in music. The students must become interested and give their best efforts in order that music may hold its rightful position in the Johnstown High School. Why not give your support?

To sit beside some murmuring stream, With a pole along to try some Hshin', U Or do nothing all day long but dream and dream Vvould be the height of my ambition. II. Or in the summer time, to go out with a tent, And listen to the winds sighing thru the trees, Forgetting for a time, home and the rent, just to be wafted to sleep by a cool evening breeze. III. But with the coming of the fall, When one loses thoughts of going ufishinu just to try to play some football, Would be the height of my ambition. --E. K.

Though the world seems wrong and bad, And from your very soul you cry, Though your heart is tried and sad i Be a man, don't long to die! If you are sick and tired of living, And you cry out, O why? A Remember pleasure comes from pleasure giving, Be a man, don't long to die! When you are worn by grief and troubles, And you heave a heartsick sigh, With a smile, start blowing bubbles, Be a man, donit long to die!
