Why did we die? We died because we lacked school spirit. In this editorial we are going to show' you that our Hudson High School is dead, and that we must either wake up “mighty quick or be hopelessly lost. Students of Hudson High School, do you know that we seldom if ever have any contests, either athletic or literary, with those schools we competed with eight or ten years ago? Do you realize that the institutions we now send our first teams against, and fnd it difficult to defeat, are the very schools we formerly sent our second teams against? Do you realize that now if w'e compete with one of the schools w'e contested with ten years ago it is usually our big game, and that we invariably lose such a contest? How many of our students can name the institutions we competed with eight or ten years ago? Well here they are: Superior, Ellswvorth, Menomonie, Stillwater, Eau Claire, New Richmond, River Falls High, River TRUE BLUE 3 Falls Normal, .Minneapolis Central, Minneapolis South Side High, St. Paul Central, and St. Paul Mechanics Arts. And we won from them in any line of work. What kind of a football team did we have in ’02, ’03, ’04, and’05? Was there anything around this part of the country that could defeat them? Indeed there was not. How is our football team nowadays? We have not had a football team for the past two years. O yes, we had one this year. We actually played one game, and any high school that can get enough eligible men to play one game is “some school.” Why have we descended to the class we are in now? Ft is because we did not have school spirit. For another example take girls’ basket ball. Eight or ten years ago, the Hudson High girls’ basket ball team irtet and vanquished by decisive scores the strongest girls’ teams in this section of the country. They played such teams as Menomonie, Baldwin, Dunn County Normal of Menomonie. Minneapolis Central, and South Side High of Minneapolis. Today what is the outlook? We have not had a girls’ basket ball team for several years, and this year at first practice only seven girls turned out. Still another example is found in debating. Eight years ago we had two debating societies, which had debates every few weeks, and there were several teams each year to debate such schools as New Richmond, Ellsworth and Grand Rapids. A noticeable feature is that the members of these de- bating societies were boys and girls prominent in athletics. Ten years ago when debates were scheduled with New Richmond, a special train was chartered to convey our enthusiastic High School students to New Richmond. Last year when Hudson High debated River Falls High (at Hudson) less than twenty high school students were present. Last year when New Rich- mond debated (hat same River Falls team, over two hundred high school students were present. It is a startling comparison (or rather contrast). Even our True Blue has deteriorated within the last few years. But this is not because the editors have been poorer, but because within late years the paper has not been the student’s, but the editor’s. You read an issue of the True Blue published in, well 1905. What do you find? You find in it articles of interest written by many different students. In fact the majority of the articles were written by students prominent in Athletics. At present many of our athletes consider themselves such great rough- necks” that it would disgrace them to write an article for the True Blue The High School is not supporting the True Blue financially. And those who are not taking the paper please remember this: seventy-five cents means just as much to us, and is just as hard for us to secure as it is for you. The only difference is that the subscribers have a little school spirit while you hove not. Many of you have not even enough grace to say you won’t take the True Blue. Recently, in the main room, all students who would take the paper were asked to stand. The majority of you did stand, but many of those who stood did not subscribe for the True Blue. Those who did this will probably “swipe” the paper from their neighbor’s desk 4 TRUE BLUE and read it without digging up seventy-five cents. If you do this, all the school spirit you have could be enclosed in a mustard seed, and even then there would be so much room left that it would rattle like a bean in a bushel basket. So get some school spirit. Participate in at least two school organiza- tions, and aid financially all the rest. We know that we all have a tendency to become enthusiastic over new and attractive possibilities for betterment in any direction, and to stop there; to recommend admirable courses of ac- tion to others, and tail to adopt them ourselves; to advise change and remain unchanged; in short, to preach without practicing, but we are going to at- tempt to practice that we preach, and cultivate school spirit. And so we say again that this editorial is written to try to focus the dormant school spirit into action; to point out that Hudson High has lost its leadership, and that it can regain it only through the concerted, though individual action, of every student who believes we can regain the lost ground, and who wants Hudson High School prosperity, Hudson High School prestige, and Hudson High School leadership. If we have school spirit our interests are united. We are the Hudson High School and if anything is going to be done by this institution to regain its leadership, it must be done by you and me, acting as patriotic students. OUR AIM. It is the aim of the True Blue staff to reflect impartially the best thought of the school; and on its own behalf, to speak plainly on all questions affect, ing the school’s welfare. It aims, furthermore, to present the thoughts and actions of the student body; and above all, to increase the school spirit. BASKET BALL The Basket Ball season will open soon. l et’s boost for the team, so that we can have a successful season. And you inelligible men who are good basket ball players remember that if you had any school spirit you would not remain inelligible. You basket ball men, remember that you ex- pect the Glee Clubs, debators, and other organizations to support you finan- cially, but also remember that it is up to you to support the True Blue, Glee Club, and debating, and if you don’t support the other organizations, you have absolutely no school spirit, have absolutely no business playing basket ball. When the basket ball sale of tickets comes along, let us make a new record. Let our motto be: “For every student a basket ball ticket.” OUR POLICY In looking over the old files of the True Blue, we notice some very peculiar things. About every two years the same editorials are reprinted. This will not occur this year. If we can not find a suitable subject for an editorial we will “cut out” the editorial altogether. Another noticeable fea- TRUE BLUE 5 ture is that every year the class reporters, report the same thing. That’s mighty suspicious. If the True Blue reporters send in such reports this year, this staff is going to be minus four class reporters and class reports will be done away with entirely. For the past few years the best themes have been published in the True Blue. This has excited a great deal of ad. verse criticism. This year this will not be carried out unless we have ex- ceptionally good themes which are very humorous and interesting. Another department which will be remodelled this year is the Athletic Column. We are going to have better, longer and more interesting reports. The Exchange Column will also be improved. We are going to attempt to have at least fifty exchanges on the reading table. The exchanges are of in- terest to every student and we will attempt to satisfy them in this respect. This year remember that this True Blue does not belong to the staff. It belongs to you Y-O-U YOU. See that you make it yours. Ever since 1 entered high school I have heard nothing but unpleasant remarks made of the True Blue editor. Now you just remember that poor True Blue was not the fault of the editor or the staff. It was your fault. In the future make this your True Blue. Have a better paper, better athletics, better lit- erary work, and more school spirit. Let us get out of the ranks of the dead and enter the ranks of the living. A SQUARE DEAL If it were not for the advertisers, we would not have enough money to pay for the True Blue. So we must give our advertisers a square deal and, in turn, patronize them. It’s the right thing to do. THE STORY CONTEST A few w-eeks ago, we asked for some good themes for the first issue Only a few were turned in. .Most of them were not up to True Blue stand- ard. Only one was good enough for publication. This theme was written by Gertrude Kelley. (i TRUE BLUE HISTORY OF THE NEW TEACHERS There were several positions left vacant last spring by the resignations of Mr. Fuller, Mr. Burkholder, Miss Smart, Miss Server and Miss Heritage. These positions have been filled by five new teachers, whose names, posi- tions and history will hereby be related. Miss Feeny and Miss Holden have never had the honor of a biography in this wonderful magazine, so we will also record their histories, as well as Miss Thurston’s. Miss Smith is the only teachdT who has had honorable mention in these illustrious columns, so we will not include her little biography, but for the satisfaction of the inqusitive Freshmen we refer them to page three of issue number one of volume XIII. FRANK GORDON JONES Shawano, Wisconsin, holds the honor of being the birthplace of Frank Gordon Jones, our new superintendent. He secured his elementary educa- tion in Shawano, and graduated from Shawano High School in ’99. While in high school he took part in oratorical work, and was also President of the Literary Society for three terms. He first taught in the country schools, and later taught in state graded schools for four years. He then took up the regular Normal work at Oshkosh, from which he graduated in ’08, raak ing the course in a year and a half. While in Normal he went out foi basket-ball, and made center for the first team. At this point Mr. Jones TRUE BLUE 7 had an accident and sprained his hand very badly, which terminated his basket-ball career. The principalship of the Prentice Schools was held by him for one year. From Prentice he went to Fairchild, Wisconsin, acting as superintendent of the Fairchild schools for two years. He then attended the University of Wisconsin for one year, attaining his degree. For the past two years he has been superintendent of schools at Kilbourn, Wis consin, and from Kilbourn he journeyed to Hudson. COURTNEY CLARENCE SHERMAN Courtney Clarence Sherman is the assisiant principal, and is also the science teacher and athletic director. In “Lab.” he instructs the intelligent Seniors in the mysteries of Physics, and although the year is only two months on, the Seniors are willing to swear that anything he does not know about Physics is not worth knowing. He was born in Mineral Point, Wisconsin, and attended the common schools there, as well as the High School. While in High School he took a prominent part in Athletics. He played quarter, half and end on the football team, forward in basketball, and field and third base in baseball. He was also captain of the track team. He also took part in debating and was on the team which defeated the Milwaukee, Whitewater, and River Falls Normals. The fact that Mr. Sherman took part in so many outside school organiza tions shows that he must have done good school work and so affords an ex- ample which some of our own althletes would do well to follow. MISS AGNES E. FEENY Miss Feenv, our jolly Mathematics teacher, was born not far from here, in the city of St. Paul. It was there, at Central High School, that she began her progress toward future greatness. While attending High School, she was placed on the staff, of “The World,” the school paper of Central, as reporter of locals, and was also a member of C. H. S. Glee Club. She graduated from this school in 1906, with honors; ranking fifth out of her class of one-hundred and sixtysix, and again took up the furthering of tier education at the University of Minnesota. Here she specialized in Mathematics, one of the hardest courses in College, and was also a member of the Minerva Literary Society. At this time, she was known to take a “Weekly Constitutional” from the University to Bedford Ave. in order to save five cents car fare, with which to buy ice-cream soda in summer, and to be squandered on popcorn or peanuts, when the weather was cooler. She graduated from University in 1910. She took charge of her first classes at Hastings; and from there she went to Fifield, where she taught both Mathematics and English. She accepted the offer of teaching Mathematics here, about the middle part of last year, and we hope she will remain here for many more years. 8 TRUE BLUE MISS HELEN M. BROWN Miss Brown, who accepted her present position of trying to teach th- Freshmen how to express themselves, so as to be understood, was born in Chippewa Falls, Wis. It was here that she received her primary education, and graduated from the Chippewa High School in 1907. Her higher educa- tion was obtained at the University of Wisconsin, where she took a special interest in all forms of athletics. Among the various forms, in which she took a personal plirt, were baseball, hockey, and bowling. Through the earning of five “honors” in Athletics, she received as a reward, the red “W,” and white sweater which she now wears. She completed her course at the University in 1912, and was then engaged to teach in the graded department of the schools of Chippewa Falls. From here she went to Spring Valley, where she filled the position of English teacher. Hudson then procured her to teach in the same branch, where she is found to be an all around good teacher, and is appreciated to the utmost. MISS EVA WHITE Miss White, the teacher of Junior and Senior English, was born in our own state of Wisconsin in the city of River Falls. At this place she at- tended the State Normal School, and showed a great deal of interest in all school activities. She was a member of both the Glee Club, and school orchestra, playing the Cello, in the latter. Besides this she belonged to the girl’s basketball team and was undoubtedly a first class player. After finishing Normal, she began her work of teaching in the graded schools of Baldwin, Wisconsin. Not being content with her education at Normal, she again resumed her work at the University of Wisconsin. While here she became a member of the “Gamma Phi Beta” Sorority. After graduating from University she accepted a position in River Falls, where she remained until she was offered her present position in the Hudson High School, where it is hoped she will be satisfied to remain for some time. MISS LI LI HOLDEN Miss Lila Holden is the only one of our teachers who was born in Hud- son. She graduated from the Hudson High School in 1907, and then went to l awrence University for one year. While there she was a member of the l awrean Literary Society. After teaching three years in a country school, she again went to school at Macalaster. Here she became a member of the “Hyperion Literary Society.” She graduated in 1912, and taught one sem- ester in Spooner. Then last year at the beginning of the second semester she came back to Hudson and taught Ancient, Mediaeval, and United States Government. This year she has the Ancient, Mediaeval, and United States History classes here. TRtJE BLUE 9 MISS SIDNEY PATTEE Miss Sidney Pattee was born and educated in Minneapolis, Minn., graduating from Central High in 1902. After this she took a four year course at the University of Minnesota, graduating in 1906. While at the University she belonged to several literary societies and clubs. After graduation she taught in Minneapolis, and then in l,ake City, Minn. She came to Hudson in October as a substitute for Miss Travis, the German and Latin teacher, but we are delighted to hear that she is going to stay the whole year with us, for we are sure she can guide us thru the difficult- ies of Virgil or of “Immensee.” MISS RUIE THURSTON Miss Ruie Thurston was born in Ellsworth and graduated from the Ellsworth High in 1906. Then she attended the River Falls Normal for two years. While there she became prominent in Athletics, especially in basketball. She was elected President of the girls Athletic Association, and played on the Normal team during her Junior and Senior year. She also belonged to the Glee Club for two years she was there. She graduated in 1912. Then she taught the fifth and sixth grade in Hudson for the past two years. This year she has six classes in High School, two of Physiology two of Physical Geography, and two of Arithmetic. LITERARY DEPARTMENT THE GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB The Girls’ Glee Club was organized the first month of school and now has a membership of about forty-eight. It was moved and carried at the first meeting that each member should pay a monthly due of twenty-five cents. The following officers were elected: President, Viola Solheim, Treas urer, Virginia Clark, Secretary, Isabelle Utman. It is planned to give an operetta this year which will include both the boys’ and girls’ clubs. We shall expect the school to boost by attending. Hallowe’en was celebrated by a costume party at Utman's. Every character imaginable was represented including the gypsy fortune-teller, who bore resemblance to Miss Feeny. Hallowe’en games were played ghostly stories told and “all sorts of stunts done.” Refreshments took up a good part of tne evening. The party broke up, at not an early hour, with cheers for the Glee Club, Miss Angst and Miss Utman. —V.C.T7 “HIS REWARD.” “A letter, mother—a letter, Hurrah!” cried Jeanne Evans, “and from— A. H. Mither, postmarked Europe. What can it be? Please hurry and 10 TRUE BLUE read it.” As Mrs. Evans glanced at the postmark, a frown clouded her usually kind, placid face. “Geneva?” she thought, “Can it be—Oh no, it cannot be from Kathie.” She tore the letter open, and hastily scanned the first page. Genera, Switzerland, Oct. 27, 189?. My dear Beatrice: — My far away, but only loyal friend, when you receive this letter, T will be in “Happy T and.” But as you love me, carry out my wishes, for the sake of my son. You are wealthy, and can afford this. My son, a lad of twenty-four will be alone in this world; he is not strong, so I would die content if I might know you would do as I say. December first, he will land in Southampton, England; and I beg of you to meet him there, and take him home with you. My dear Beatrice, be a mother to him. My hand trembles, I can write no farther. Good bye; forever and ever, good bye, KATHERINE. When Mrs. Evans lifted her tearful eyes from the letter, her face wore a sad expression; for the letter was from a friend of her girlhood, Katherine Hastings. All the time her mother was reading, Jeanne sat with clasped hands, gazing into her mother’s beautiful face. At length, she said, “What makes you so sad, mother? “O Jeanne,” her mother replied, “my friend Katherine, you have heard me speak of her, is dead.” “Yes, mother, was there nothing else in the letter?” “She left a son,” Mrs. Evans continued, “whom I am to meet in Southampton, England, December the first.” “Mother! Mother! to Europe! That will be glorious. When can we start? I can see London, and Oh, I don’t know7 what all.” “Please, please little daughter, don’t bother me now! Not so many questions,” replied her mother. Jeanne departed down the country road, to impart her great joy to Fern Milton, her bosom friend. “Fern, it is too wonderful,” she exclaimed, “just think of me, poor little me, going to Europe, and to meet a man. How romantic! But mother did not seem a bit joyful.” The girls talked long and earnestly together, till the sun began to “Jean, Jean,” laughed her friend, “you're so funny, and so excitable. sink behind the hills in the distant west. Jeanne suddenly started. “I must go, Fern,” she called back. “Mother will worry.” Supper at the Evans home the night was a quiet affair. It passed with no mention of the European letter. Late that night Jeanne raced up the stairs. She laid aside her dress and donned a soft trainng dres'ssing gown. Her hair she let fall in curls about her shoulders. Before climbing TRUE BLUE 11 into bed she took one peep at herself in the glass. “1—I really believe I’m pretty,” she gasped. Then with a terrific leap, she landed in the middle of the bed. A mighty crash followed and “meow-meow-me-o-.” “For Heavens sake, Jean, what is that?” called her mother from the bottom of the stairs. “Nothing, mother, only Betty, the cat, and the leg of the bed.” Mrs. Evans laughed lightly, and returned to the library, to her waiting husband, with whom she had been discussing the European voyage. “It is this way, John,” she said. “Of course you and I must go; but I do not think it right to break into Jeanne’s school work this way. 1 think it would be a good plan to let her stay with them, but it will break the child’s heart, as she is bent on going.” “I say she cannot go, and that is final. She cannot always have her way. She is a good girl, but too flighty, too flighty,” retorted .Mr. Evans. The next morning .Mrs. Evans told her daughter of their plans to sail November seventh, leaving her at home. Jeanne’s eyes filled with tears. “Alright mother,” she said, and left the room. She had been severely wounded. Jeanne as usual donned her hat and coat, to go to Fern, to pour her sorrows into that patient girl's ear. “It is cruel, mean; it is terrible,” shrieked Jeanne. “I am not going to Europe with father and mother; but I am going alone. You know I have my own money! I’ll not speak of this to anyone for I have not fully made up my mind. I will see Europe in spite of father. I suppose he did not mean to be so cruel.” Mr. and Mrs. Evans were to sail November seventh on the DIANA Meanwhile, after much contemplation, Jeanne planned to sail on the JUNO, November fifteenth. The Evans’ day for sailing arrived at last. Many were the farewells from their numerous friends. The weather for the voyage was perfect, and the voyage proved a great success. Once more Mrs. Evans’ joyousness returned; each day her health improved wonderfully. Arriving at England, they first proceeded to London, where Mrs. Evans saw the many places she had longed to in her ardent girlhood. Jeanne, however, stayed with her friend till the fifteenth. Once, before she sailed, she wrote to her mother and thought, with a pang, of the wrong her mother would experience when the letters stopped coming. Alone, Jeanne packed her trunk and started east, and on the morning of November fifteenth Jeanne sailed for the-first time away from her native land. The voyage proved unfavorable for Jeanne, for, overcome by sea sickness, her days were spent in the stateroom, out two days before landing she recovered So Jeanne at least had a happy remembrance of two days of the voyage. Arriving at Liverpool November twentieth, she was dazed by the strangeness of the city. Her mother, she knew, was in London, so Jeanne planned to spend the days before December in Liverpool. A room was first 12 TRUE BLUE obtained, with much difficulty, at a commendable hotel. How lonesome she was that night! “But it is for the best,” she murmured, with a quaking heart. The days of sight seeing passed rapidly enough; and at length November thirtieth arrived. This day she was to start for Liverpool. Jeanne had had a letter from Fern saying Mrs. Evans was very much worried, and asking her if she had not better tell Mrs. Evans where Jeanne was. But no, Jefcnne would not submit. She was not going to give in now after all the thrill of going to Europe alone, even if she was disturbed about her mother. So on the morning of the thirtieth, Jeanne, all excitement at the thought of surprising her mother at Southampton, packed her trunk again. She was going to meet Arnold Elton, “What would he be like?” she asked herself. “I think,” she said, “he will be of medium size, with a thin hand- some face, and a shock of curly, brown hair. Early on the morning of December first Jeanne was at the dock at Southampton. Her mother would surely be there to meet Arnold Elton, and to sail on the DIANA on its return trip. Jeanne herself had secured pas- sage on this ship. Jeanne waited and waited but no father—no mother, and no man; at least she could not tell if any were the right one, the men were so numerous. The ship was due to sail at twelve, but at eleven fifty-five, no parents had appeared. She perceived a man parading about the dock as if looking for some one. She thought it surely must be Arnold; but she could not see his face. At last it was necessary for her to go on board. The man also got on and she was more convinced than ever that it was he. The ship pulled out of the harbor, and started on it's course; but Jeanne remained on deck, thinking intently; for she was actually worried. At length she went to stateroom 43. “What a tucked up little hole it is!” The tears sprang to her eyes; she wished she had stayed at home. After a good night’s rest, she felt refreshed, and although it was chilly next morning she went on deck. Her chair was in a sheltered corner so she could write in peace, for she must communicate with Fern. Few people were on deck and these were mostly far away from her. A sudden gust of wind wrenched the letter from her grasp. “Here, Miss, it is safe,” a man said, who seemed to pop out of nowhere, with a courtly smile. Jeanne looked up and with an astonished “Thank you,” and thought to herself, “If this is Arnold, how different from my ideal.” The man was dressed in black, was tall, slender, with dark hair and kind, open, leafy brown eyes. His face wore a rather sad expression. The man looked as if lie would like to continue rue conversation. Finally he said, “I think you are a stranger on board, are you not? Would it be ask- ing too much, if I might talk to you a little? I am also a stranger.” “You might talk in moderation,” replied Jeanne, with a coy smile. TRUE BLUE 13 “Yes, I am a stranger,” continued the man, “although I expected the Evans’ on board ship, still they did not come.” “I expected my mother and father on board and they did not come, so I see we are both in a fix.” The gentleman in black enjoyed Jeanne’s company very much and every day he begged her to come on deck. “Where are you going?” he asked one day. “To Cinncinnati,” she replied. “Why, so am I, this is wonderful.” “ Do you live there?” Jeanne asked. “No, my home was formerly in Geneva.” My mother died there and I was coming to America to live,” he continued. The weather was very unfavorable, so of course the voyage was pro- longed. A week passed, but still they did not reach land. On the night of the eighth day a storm was raging The ship was drifting out of its course. Jeanne went to bed early, with a headache, but towards midnight she was awakened by a loud knocking on her door, and “Miss Jeanne.-Hurry-Come on deck, I will wait for you there.” She hurriedly donned her garments and stepped outside. Her friend, the man, took her arm, “This way,” he said, “the ship is in danger.” The touch of his hand upon her arm thrilled her through and through. She was silent and meekly let him lead her around. There was a rush and a cry; the ship was going down. “We will have to jump. Come,” he said. Jeanne jumped; they reached the water. She felt his arm around her. He grabbed a piece of timber and placed her upon it. Suddenly he gave a joyous exclamation, “A life boat.” The boat was only partly full, so Jeanne and her friend clambered on board. Here the half fainting girl was revived and the party drifted along in silence, till some one exclaimed, “A ship!” At first it seemed as if they would not be seen: but finally the ship slowed down and then stopped. The refugees were taken on board, and the people gathered about to view the arrivals. The men half carried Jeanne on deck, she was so weak. Jeanne peered about. “Mother,” she gasped. A woman made a start for the girl. “Jeanne, she cried, “You here? How in the world—” “Yes mother I’m here; I went to Europe anyway; and would not be here now if it were not for him, Arnold, I think.” Arnold!” exclaimed Mrs. Evans, “Is it really you? We missed the Diana. How can I thank you for saving my girl?” Mr. Evans came on deck, “What is it, Beatrice? ne asked. “What' Not Jeanne!” “Yes, and this is Arnold. John, Jeanne went to Europe anyway; she was on the Diana and he saved her.” “My God!” cried Mr. Evans, huskily. “What if our girl had died. Young man, how can 1 thank you? What shall be your reward?” “Jeanne,” Arnold said simply, “that is, if she is willing.” Jeanne’s only answer was a faint blush. —G. K. T7. If our little jokes offend you Do not fear, they will not end you; If they please you, we shall know it, For your beaming face will show it. Rev. Rayburn addressed the assembly of the Hudson High School Oct. 6, on the subject of “Character Building.” His talk was very instructive and entertaining, and was enjoyed by all. The Senior class gave a reception Sept. 25th to the teachers and par- ents of the high school students. A short program was given and refresh- ments served by the girls of the Senior class. At the reception the par- ents were afforded an opportunity to meet the members of the faculty. For latest thing in ear rings apply to Edwin Becker. Slug pearls a specialty. Mr. Wright, representing the railway, gave an interesting talk to the students upon “Safety First.” Dr. Davis then addressed the students, outlining brie-fly the history of the Red Cross association, followed by demonstration of “First Aid to the Injured.

The poor culprits alone in the main room Hear the pattering of many feet, Of those excused at 3:30 In the Gym. or Glee Club to meet. For its only the culprits of high school Who are honored by making up time, For failure in two or more subjects, An offense considered a crime. The after school hour is a long one, It lasts from 3:30 till dark. And pupils must study in silence, If next month they expect a good mark. If not, then down to the office That pupil with books must stray, And he’s seldom if ever detained long. Just instructed to go on his way. Mr. Jones—“Boys’ basketball will meet tonight. There is no reason why every boy should not turn out, who has no physical defects or heart trouble (laughter)—that is, the heart which cannot stand excitement. “Why are freshmen like wheat?” “Because they need thrashing. Mobilization of the Grand Army of the Hudson High has taken place on the boy’s stairway. Raw material has been rapidly converted into well- disciplined troops by Brigadier-General Sherman and Field-Marshals Holden, Feeny and Pattee.

On Nov. 20th, the High School students gave Shakespeare’s, “Merchant of Venice.” Further notice will be given in our next issue. A Junior girl, charming and fair Chewed gum with a grace debonair, One day her vexed teacher Said to the fair creature, “Just throw that stuff out thru tne air.” She went to the window with grief, (Tho her jaws fairly ached for relief) And removing the cud.

An answer in time saves nine. Say, P., and J., and E. And all you awful chumps, Yot’ll have to mend your manners, And not make so many jumps When you go down stairs. Or sure as you’re alive You’ll have a private column Five minutes after time. So you better keep your feet right And mind what you are about, Or Miss Feeny’s agoin’ to get you. Ef You Don’t Watch Out. It is the psyche twist which all girls wear, Who would the latest “do up” have in hair. Year after year behold the silent toil! Each one a martyr to her lustrious coil. Build up more stately headress, O my girl. Keep up the pace in old Dame Fashion’s whirl. Let each new coiffure crimpier than the past, Cover your head with a dome more vast, Till your identity be lost in hair And all forgotten the pretty face once there. SOCIABLE CONUNDRUMS If you were to quit school suddenly, would anyone miss you? Are you a real part of the school, or are you a wall flower, or desk orna- ment? Are you a booster or a knocker? Do yon go with the brainless scrubs, and knock, or do you boost? Anyone can be a knocker; As anyone can be a rough neck. But it takes a MAN to be a MAN.

If each teacher we obey. “How long did you study your History?” Asks Miss Holden in accents clear. “One period ma’am,” “Twill never do; You won’t get thru this year.” And Shorthand needs two periods. Not a minute less will do. Physics needs two also. And English Literature two. Now we have just seven periods To study and recite, Reciting six, and study nine. Have I got the number right? PURPOSE OF ATHLETICS IN A HIGH SCHOOL Perhaps as you have journeyed around this terra firma ,a yell from a group of High School students as they gave a bon voyage to a parting team or welcomed a victorious team home, met your ears. Perhaps if you possessed the quality which killed Ix t’s wife, you asked, “Why a celebra- tion?” Then some excited youngster exclaims, “Why this is our team.” What does athletics mean to the general public? A form of gladiatorial combat wherein might makes right. What does it mean to the average school board? 1st. A good form of cheap advertisement. 2nd. A good way to keep some of the more energetic youngsters busy and so out of mischief. 3rd. A form of exercise which tends to make physical giants out of their boys. To the average student school athletics may mean: 1st. A chance for personal glory. 2nd. A way to spend odd hours. 3rd. A cheap form of amusement. 4th. A good way to show some neighboring hamlet that our High School can carry off the bacon at any and all times. Such people clamor for a winning team irrespective or ways and means and as a result H. S. athletics defeat the very purpose for which they were placed in the high school. What should be the aim of athletics in the High School? 1st. To givp a form of enjoyable and agreeable physical exercise open to all High School students. 2nd. To give something of general interest to all where each one will put aside their petty grievances or false standards and stand on an equal footing with his or her fellow creatures. 3rd. To make sports of all, not in the street sense, but in the great, broad, democratic- sense. Perhaps we had better define this term. Who is a sport? Not one who cannot put aside the joy of cost, nor one who would steal by trickery from an opponent a prize won. But one who knows the rules of the' game, who fights hard, plays the game from the word go; men, high minded men: TRUE BLUE 21 men wlio their duty know, but know their rights and knowing dare main- tain. He was a sport who, when his team, was tired and bruised, cheered them on to victory with the words: “Comrades, play up, play up and play the game. Who, when his brigade was broken and ragged by rifle shots, picked up the fallen standard and rallied the brigade by, “Comrades, play up, play up and play the game.” For you, readers of this paper, you who are representative of the thought of this community, what does H. S. athletics mean to you? Are you with the coach in his efforts to make this years athletics fulfill the big aim herein set forth and make your school a by word for sports- manship among other schools? —C. C. SHERMAN, Coach. FOOTBALL The season's athletics began this year with football. There was much talk about having a good showing up of players, but when the actual prac tice came, there were hardly enough men to make one team. However, Nr. Sherman, our coach, instilled into the minds and hearts of the few players a little enthusiasm, which was not advanced by the student body. The first two games played were scrimmage games between Hudson High and Galahad. The boys made a pretty fine showing in the games. The first and onlv real game played was with River Falls High. Hudson vs. River Falls. On Oct. ? d our boys, I say boys, because our Prof, and Coach, due to the phenomenal condition of the freight train being out on time, went in a Chinese Mercedes, But our boys, did 1 forget the girls (?) went on a freight to River Falls to indulge fn the first, hish! also last football game. After much meditation, over officials, the game was called about three o'clock. Referee tossed up a coin and River Falls won choice for goal Hudson received the kick but lost ball on a fluke forward pass. River Falls plunged line for touchdown, etc, etc. Final score of game 12-0. Which considering that the only man who ever had played football before was Beggs, surely doesn't seem very bad. Some of our boys played an exceptionally good game considering: i. e. lew Coit, John Durning and Edmund Bleier, not.to forget our end, Starr, who tipped his men in pile-driver style. What about a team next year? Do you belong to the boosters club? FOOTBALL LINE-UP Denniston, Durning, Beggs, Coit, Hosford, Slater, Lystad, (Stevens) Phil Tourtellot Paul Tourtellot Edmund Bleier (Hodgins) Olson (Martinson) 99 TRUE BLUE BASKET BALL The outlook for basket ball this year is very bright. We expect to play a much larger schedule this year than ever before, and it is up to the boys to be out for practice, and help to regain our lost leadership. Basketball tickets will be out in a few weeks and we need yoilr help to boost the sale. Our motto “Every student must buy a basketball ticket.” The Schedule f Dec. 11. Menomonie at Menomonie. Jan. 8.

GIRLS BASKET BALL For the first time since 1905, the girls of the Hudson High School are going to have basket ball teams and play at least class games. Wonderful, isn’t it? It didn’t seem very wonderful though at the first practice when two Seniors, three Juniors, and one Sophomore appeared for practice. But at the next practice there were nearly fifty girls assembled in the gymnasium. It is true about twenty-five of these were freshmen, but it showed a start in the right direction,— one of the first indications of school spirit. Regular practice is held twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday, and the girls are ably coached by Miss Thurston and Miss Flynn. Class teams are going to be organized and class games played. But if we can have class games, why not have a high school team and play other schools? Surely it is not because we lack material, for in a bunch of fifty girls there ought to be at least five who could play well enough to go against outside teams Why not have a champion team like they had in 1905, when Nina Webster, Florence Fall, Pearl Mayer, Uucill Menkey and Estella Crogan were in High School? We have just as good material and with good hard practice ought to be able to turn out a team the High School could be proud of. One of the things noticed at the first practice was a tendency of the girls to plav football, rather than basket ball,—to run with the ball every chance they got, but after a few days’ practice they learned better and are TRUE BLUE 23 now getting along in fine shape. The Freshmen especially are to be recom- mended for their good showing at the practices, and although the upper- classmen can advise the “poor Freshies” in about anything they might prifit by their example in this matter, and make a better showing at the next practice. It is a peculiar thing that many girls who come to practice once, never appear again. Why is it? Even if you are lame and stiff or bruised, don’t let such little things as that keep you from enjoying one of the best games there is for girls,—but come out to practice next week, try to make some class teams, and work for a High School team that can win the Champion ship for 1915. —I, u. ’15. EXCHANGES Since this is the first issue of the True Blue, and the staff has been organized for only a short time we have been unable to get exchanges from other schools. When the True Blue gets under way in earnest, however, we mean to make this department what it is supposed to be. We wish others to show us where we can make improvements and criticize us as we will criticize them. Remember, fellow Exchange Editors, “our best friends are they who tell us of our faults.” RULES FOR FRESHMEN The following rules, although borrowed, should be obeyed by the Freshman of Hudson High School: 1. Freshmen should take advantage of their study periods, and spend their time in study, not in trying to urge the Assembly room clock to make more speed. 2. On approaching upper classmen, male Freshmen should remove their hats and remain holding them while addressing the upper classmen. 3. Freshmen should handle the books given them with care, and turn the pages with the reverence they deserve. 4. When receiving your monthly copy of the True Blue, don’t immediate- ly try to point out to your classmates how much better you could fulfill such and such a position. Remember that the staff of said paper is com- posed of grave and experienced upper classmen, and as such, honor their efforts. 5. Freshmen should be especially careful in using the stairs, not until one has attained the honorable position of Sophomore may one go down stairs with a history in one band and a note book in the other, preparing the next lesson. 6. Freshmen should carry two pencils, a pen, an eraser and a ruler. Such articles should always be at the demand of upper classmen who are thus spared the necessity of providing tor themelves. 24 TRUE BLUE 7. Feminine freshmen, whose hair requires a ten minutes preparation in the cloak-room, should come provided with their own mirrors; the monopoly of the cloak-room mirror should be left exclusively to upper classmen. Teacher:—“What use is the study of botany to the modern business man ?” Pupil: —“Grafting.”—Ex.

We love the little Freshies They try so hard to learn. They never will get roasted. For they are too green to burn. —Ex. Think you not,” said the Senior to the maiden fair, “my mustache is becoming.” The maiden answered as his eyes she met, “It may be coming, but its not here yet.” —Ex. Once he was a starving Freshman, Daring not to smile or speak. Next he was a stupid Sophomore Planning new things every week. Then he was a good old Junior, Helped along the Freshman class. Now he is a dignified Senior Praying only, that he’ll pass. —Ex. Speaking of Ford automobiles, a sparrow was sitting in the street. A Ford ran over it. The sparrow looked up and said, “Cheap! Cheap!” Teacher, trying to make a showing before the superintendent, “There are five children in the family and the mother has only four potatoes to divide. What is she to do?” “Mash ’em!” cried Tommy. —Ex. “Keep pushing ever upward, With a smile and not a frown, It takes a live fish to go up-stream Any dead one can come down.” —Ex. “Why is a Senior like a music box?” Because he is full of airs.” —Ex. 26 TRUE BLUE ALUMNI The Alumni of the Hudson High School now numbers 579.

The first class meeting held, Lawrence Singer was elected President; Anna Arnquist, Vice President and Mary Tourtellot, Secretary and Treasurer. The class colors chosen were Maroon and Gold, and motto “FORWARD.’ —E. H. ’18. SOPHOMORE CLASS REPORT Our first meeting was held in October for the purpose of electing new officers. . Paul Anderson called the meeting to order and opened nominations for the Presidency. Ralph Pearson was elected for that office, the other officers elected were Paul Anderson, Vice President, and Harriet Slater, Secretary and Treasurer. —G. F. ’17. JUNIOR REPORT President, Cyril Howalt. Vice President, Bernice Nelson. Secretary and Treasurer, Frances Fabel. The .Turners had a vacation from English for three days due to the fact that Miss White attended the convention at Milwaukee. We are taking up English T.it. this year instead of having it in our Senior year. The Junior girls “beat up” the Seniors once in a while in Basket Ball. This ought to inspire a few more to come out for practice. —E. R. ’16. SENIOR CLASS REPORT We started this year with a membership of thirtvseven and are in hopes that none of es will be obliged for any reason to drop out. Arthur Tomlinson of River Falls, was with us for a very short time this year, but owing to the fact that he could not arrange the studies so he could finish this year, he was obliged to drop. The class is having a very feast of learning under the topic “Physics,” and are at present willing to believe that anything is nothing and that noth- ing is everything, but they are determined, nevertheless, to master the intri. cate principles of that study. But if we had not been taking this subject we would not have taken the trip to the sawmill. We had a meeting some time ago and selected and sent for our class rings and pins and at the time of this writing are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the same. —J. J. D. ’15. 28 TRUE BLUE BOYS!
