Perth, Scotland Moody Manners Grand Opera Company in “Carmen.” “Nothing could be finer than the Don Jose of Mr. Reed.”—Perthshire, Courier. Danzig, Germany D’Albcrt’s “Tiefland” “The house rose to Mr. Reed shouting ‘Bravo!’ with wild enthusiasm after each act. At the close of the opera Mr. Reed was recalled fourteen times, amidst deafening applause. This is all the more gratifying for the American artist, as the Danzig public is proverbially cool and reserved.”—The Era of New York copying Danziger Zeitung. Trier, Germany The Flying Dutchman by Wagner “Erik in The Flying Dutchman’ is a somewhat insipid figure, which few of our tenors know how to properly handle. Mr. Reed surprised us bv his remarkably artistic interpretation, both in voice and acting, of the amorous huntsman. We have never had an ‘Erik’ in Trier to equal his.”—Trierische Zeitung. Portland, Oregon “No finer work than Mr. Reed’s in tone production, artistic phrasing, and distinct articulation has been heard in years.”—Oregonian. “Mr. Reed has a large voice of wide range and of very pleasing quality. That he is the finished artist was quickly discovered in the opening numbers.”—Journal. “The soloist, Mr. Reed, a grand opera tenor from Berlin and London, captured his audience early in the evening. His voice of fine sympathetic quality and dram- atic in character, made a strong appeal, while his phras- ing and enunciation were artistically satisfactory.”— Telegram. 2 June, 1921 The Spectrum Your New Suit for Graduation The best styles you can buy at $25 to $40 A splendid selection of Young M en’s Models in all wool materials are here waiting for You We guarantee a perfect fit, and the biggest value in Portland.

But, ah, we soon must say goodbye, And bravely face the test. But life with all her beauties rare. Shall strengthen all our fears, And we shall ever love the school We've known for four short years. Chorus Farewell to you, oh Jefferson, Our school days have passed all too soon, Our lives have only just begun, Oh, carry on, June Class of Twenty-one! We'll lift as we climb to life's highest peak, The best that she offers we'll seek, To Jefferson we ll e'er be true. The school of the Gold and Blue! How often we have walked your halls, Our hands in friendly clasp, But now we’re going to leave it all, And soon it will all be passed. We’ll always love you, Jefferson, No matter where we are, To you our loyalty we’ll vow, Our guide shall be your star. To MR.

We stand before the altar now, Our craft will sink or sail, We’ll lift as we climb to our success, We’ll vow to never fail. Let the dappled fires of heaven, Always light us on our way, Let's on, spend not Life’s shortness basely, But follow e’er the ray. Increase our endless thirst for knowledge, And praise our one desire, Our wish to know the when and why, Let’s carry on, inspire! And in the years that are to come, We'll always do our best, We'll fling the past behind 11s, We'll never be disfressed. Protect us, God, from all that’s wrong. And give us self-control. No obstacle shall stop our course. Until we reach our goal! 40 September 21, 1920—This was the organization meeting of the June ‘21 class.

I'm human—I live—I tingle with mirth, As I leap to greet in the morning light, Or nestle at sleep in the sweetness of night. Perhaps sorrow already has crept by my way, Perhaps love has come in and taught me to pray; But always beyond the great breathing span Of earth, and its mysteries, and secrets of man; While above swings the sky, a star, or a tree, I am breathless below—exultant and free. 46 May Helliwell “Now, Marian, sit right clown here in front of the fire and tell me all about everything.” So saying, we settled our- selves for a good long chat. We talked for hours (as girls do who have not seen each other for years). “Well, as I was saying before dinner, this afternoon. Lillian and I went to the new theater that Lewis Davenport has just remodelled. We saw Katherine Wightman in Harold Burkitt’s new play, ‘The Princess.’ The leading man was Ed Miller ; he saved Katherine from the clutches of Gordon Wilkinson, the villain. Although it was good. I didn’t like ‘The Princess’ as well as ‘Contrary Mary,’ which featured Anita Davis. “Before the curtain went up, John Sullivan, who, you know, has just been made manager of ‘The Burton Woolen Mills,’ made a speech on ‘Money and How to Get It.’ When he finished, a man jumped upon the platform and cried. ‘Three cheers for Sullivan, and make them big.’ We were surprised to see that it was Joe Misovetz, of whom I had heard nothing since we graduated. Just as we finished giving the cheers, the orchestra, under the direction of Lars Bergsvik, began to play. We noticed that Marie Christian- son and Patsy Neilan were the violinists, Truman Bidwell was the drummer, and that Frances Nendel was the pianist: (Joe told us afterward that it was a player). “Before ‘The Princess’ began, Pathe News items were thrown on the screen. The first picture showed President- elect Chapin bowing and smiling to cheering crowds. Be- side him were Lewis Payne and Harry Harris, the newly- appointed Secretaries of State and Treasury. In the crowd we noticed John Andrus and Carl Vreeland, who, you know, are math, professors at Harvard now. “The next film showed Elisabeth Van Hook giving a speech on ‘Woman Suffrage’ at a women’s meeting. Mary Harris was presiding, while Claudia Plank and Jean Rugg were taking notes. “Now the scene changed to Switzerland. Hilda Thorne, Ruby Warner and Doris Thompson, the celebrated Ameri- 47 The Spectrum June, 1921 can hikers, were shown climbing the Alps. They were talk- ing and laughing when suddenly they slipped and started to fall. We held our breath for one long moment, but finally were relieved to see that their guides, Gilbert Mahoney and Bruce McGregor, had heroically saved them. ' In the comics we saw a circus in which Price Sullivan as clown, Harold McAndie as thin man, and Helen Pearson as fat woman, took the main parts. It was one. of the funniest comics that Howard Kinard has ever written. After the show we saw Joe, who said that he and b red I Ienkle were running a candy store in partnership with I-.dgar Bohlman. They are having fine success as Bernice Hunt and Maxine Stout arc two of the clerks. He said that the other day Donald Breakey and Floyd McKalson, of Breakey McKalson, Photograph Studio, came in. They e a hurry as they were on their way to a dance that hleanor Simpson and Mamie Turner were giving for the benefit of the Schroeder Orphan Asylum. Joe also divulged the secret of John’s fine speech. He had been coached by James McKinley, the eminent Wall Street financier, who had come all the way from New York for that purpose. Coming on the street car, whom do you think we met? Eunice Hudson and Virginia Broughton, the editors of the Oregonian. We were busily talking when we were inter- rupted by ’Fares, please.’ We turned to see the smiling face and outstretched hand of the conductor, Nettie Senn. In reply to our surprised questions, she said that she was conductor and that Mary Huchinson was motorman of the car. ‘But,’ she added, ‘we go off duty at five, and Flora Wakefield and Carol Squire take our places.’ ‘“Mercy,’ Marian interrupted herself to say, ‘is that clock striking ten? And have I been talking all this time? Well, I must go now, but don't forget we will call for you tomor- row at nine in our new Bullen five passenger.’ “The next morning we started out early as we wanted to make the round trip to Utopia, which had recently been discovered. Carroll Bullen himself was pilot. The other passengers were Margaret Carroll and Ruth Lounsbury. As out machine was a fast one, we passed several others on the way. But just after we passed Catherine Hogshire and Eleanor Hartman, we were stopped by a wireless from Floyd L'tley, a member of the aerial police guard, telling us we were speeding and were to report to Sergeant Rimbach at the police headquarters, as soon as 48 June, 1921 The Spectrum we reached Utopia. However, we did not allow this little incident to mar our otherwise pleasant trip. We laughed and talked gaily, exchanging news. We were all surprised when Margaret told us that Francetta Roeth and Gladys Crabtree had established a hot dog joint at Portland, while their partners, Lois Chitwood and Muriel Henrickson, were running a branch joint at Gabbertsville, Utopia. “While we were calmly talking, Ruth astonished us by suddenly bursting out, ‘Oh, I heard the most wonderful solo last week at the Walkup Scotton Open Air Theater. Gladys Duvall sang, accompanied by Lola Dobbins. There was a good whistling act, too, by Alice Lindell and Ruth Sensenich. Esther Figgins gave a fine reading “Just then we were hailed by Lucile Carter, the pilot of a passing machine, and our talk turned to the recent race around the world, in which Wilma McAyeal and Doris Ward beat Evelyn Underwood and Maud Neighbor, the Reuter and John Pearson, William Peak and Gordon Riley, Francis Bareinger and Charles Bloomgarden, Evelyn Joy and Gladys DuBois. Ethel Davis and Mildred Luther had also started but had not been heard of since, so we sup- posed they were kidnapped. As we were discussing what might have happened to them, Carroll called out, ‘Here we are and we landed on the island. We reached there just in time to see the famous Utopia champion basketball team, composed of Edna Payton, Barbara Hixon, Mildred Seufert, Ramona Dawson, and Lucile Hollingshead, play the West- ern Champions—Winifred Humfeld, Rose Jones, Thelma Sunderland, Lois Logan, and Catherine Woodard. The Utopian team won, 20 to 19. “After the game we went to the police court, where Sergeant Rimbach fined us fifty dollars, as this was Carroll’s third offense. While we were there, we saw Charlotte Kirk- wood and Greta Brumage, who had also been speeding. As we went out we noticed that Anna Lee Smyth, the clerk, was busily engaged taking down notes in shorthand. “We were so exhausted by our ride and court experi- ence that, at Carroll's suggestion, we gladly went into a nearby restaurant to get something to satisfy a curious inter- nal longing. We seated ourselves at one of the tables and were looking over the menu when we heard Robert Offi- cer’s gentle voice, ‘Well, where did you folks come from ? We looked up and saw Ronald Frazier and Robert. They were the proprietors of the restaurant, and seeing us enter, they had come over to speak to 11s. After serving us they sat down and told us the news of L topia. I hey said that 49 The Spectrum June, 1921 Florence Heath and Bessie Holts and Annie Lund were teaching in the new Cummings school, which Eva had gen- erously endowed when an aunt died and left her a fortune. Helen Chambreau and Helen Yersberg were French teachers in the same school. Just as we left they told us to be sure and see the stunts to be given that night on the fair grounds. “After walking around for a while and discovering noth- ing of interest except the Camberg candy store (which was especially interesting to Carroll), we went to the Wallin Hotel. We were shown to our rooms by Ed Peck, one of the pages. “After dinner, which was served by Penn Wilbur, we went to see the wonderful performance. The first number on the program was some Japanese wrestling between Wayne Kuhn and Edward Miller (Wayne was thrown in the first round). This was followed by the main feature of the evening, fancy diving stunts by Austin Trumbull and Dave Weiser. They did corkscrews, double flip-flaps, greased lightning and many others. Austin was finally awarded the prize for the best ‘air dive’ because of his marvelous ‘falling star’ stunt, which no one else dared try. The enter- tainment was closed by a dance in which the Utopians were gracefully represented by Mary Dengler and Mildred Crocker. “As we were returning to our hotel, we noticed an ad- vertisement on one of the brilliantly lighted billboards: ‘Concert to he given under the auspices of Mile. Kelsey, the renowned French actress, featuring Stella Van Vleet and Gloria Christ.’ As it was to be given the next evening we decided to attend it. “However, in the morning Marian received an airgram from Violet Gordon, asking us to come to the dance she was giving at the Koberstein dancing pavilion near her home. We were very glad to accept as we had never been to her new home in the Breen balloon colony before. “Before we started, we bought a lunch at the Marston restaurant. We stopped here longer than we expected, as Dorothy Larkin and Lona Strickler were clerks. After talk- ing to them a few minutes, we hurried to our machine, stop- ping only to buy papers from Henry Goon, whom we recog- nized in spite of his pretended blindness. “When we were cosily settled in our car, we began to read the papers. The first thing we noticed were these headlines: ‘Skavlan Mystery at Last Solved! Queene Cheadle Discovers New Clues! Burglar Followed and 50 June, 1921 The Spectrum Captured by Detectives Evelyn Rennet and Dorothea Gil- bert !’ “On reading the article, we found that Edward Bernst, the long-sought thief, had been captured, only to escape through the carelessness of his guards, Hilding Rosen and Robert Rcrry. But before he escaped, he had confessed that his partners in the Skavlan mystery had been Kirk Wright and Stanley Emmel. The famous bloodhounds of Carl Garbe were now on their trail. “On the sporting page we read that in the National Swimming Contests, Mable Howard and Alice Lekander and Alice Purdy had won prizes, while Mae Nehl had won in the diving contests. “When we turned to the movie page, we saw Wesleyia Bressler’s familiar face smiling out at 11s. She was the leading lady in a play to be given at the Elkin’s theater in Oregon City. “When we reached the balloon colony we saw several of our old friends. Eunice Jonsrud and Lucy Hoover, two prominent authors, were staying at the home of their friend, Rae Glover. Edna Egger, Lena Harris and Sadie Anderson were taking their vacation together and had come hip’ for the dance. We stopped to ask the way to Mar- garet’s home, and they said that they were all stenographers in Walter Crusoe’s big leather company. “When we first went into her home we were startled by the curious swaying motion of the balloon house but we soon became used to it. “At dinner that evening we were surprised to see Mar- garet Dickey, Hilda Guler, Laverne Severance and Paul Sin- bad. We also recognized two of Margaret’s servants as Fred Andrus and Merwin Dickson. During dinner we exchanged news. We found that Myrtle Knudson was a prominent law- yer in Texas, having won her last case from Olive Turney. Hilda said that Genevieve Rosen had run for Senator in Illi- nois, but had been defeated by Rachael De Yo. One of Rachael’s staunchest supporters had been Josephine Hen- dricks, assistant manager of Tilley Otto’s big department store in Washington, D. C, while Fritz Salstrom and Joseph Shea, joint owners of the largest jewelry store in Chicago, had worked for Genevieve’s election. “We talked so long that we had to hurry in order to reach the dance in time. We had a wonderful evening and met a number of our old classmates, James Eckles. Ruth Jasmann, Ressie Morrison, Rosina Zipple, Gladys Yoe and 51 The Spectrum June, 1921 Lois Logan. James said that he was a judge (he didn't look it, though), that Bessie and Ruth were reporters, and that Lois was a printer. He also said that Gladys and Mil- dred had fallen into the Pacific when their aeroplane had caught fire, but luckily they were picked up by James Griffin and Arthur Leaf, who were cruising around in their new launch. “After the dance, Margaret showed us all around the balloon colony. We saw the candy store which Idelle Egbert and Irene Noland had established, the nursery which Dorothy Wagner had founded and the most beautiful home, that of Martha Eckert. We also saw Anna Packer and Rhea Mae Martin, the strolling musicians of the colony, the famous Vance and Weigandt beauty parlors, and the magnificent theatre estab- lished by Dorothy Weslor, where we saw Elizabeth Robin- son in one of Robert Stephens' new plays. In the theatre we recognized two of our old friends, Ruby Johnson, the owner of the largest restaurant, and Aaron Touhey, one of the colony's most prominent citizens. “The next morning we returned to earth, feeling that we had had a very enjoyable trip. Hearts on Lonely Hill Anita Davis T is only a simple story, just little pieces from several lives pasted together. The Philosopher might have told it to vou himself, but you see, it was too close to him. It was too much a part of him. So I have gathered it together bit by bit, charmed by a little theme of faith that sang its way into my heart from the lives of these people. Such faith indeed must have been larger than a grain of mustard seed. It happened on a lovely June morning that a girl was seen peering down into the village from a rocky precipice on Lonely Hill. The morning had just begun, and the hills surrounding the town appeared to be filled with a myriad of signal fires as the mist rolled upwards in rolling clouds, melting into the rising sun. Below, it looked as if the town had not yet awakened. The girl crouched on a single foot- hold inside of a crag, clutching the roots of a tree. Slowly some of the terror left her eyes, and she scrambled to the top of the hill, weeping furiously. “I hate them, Mark! I tell you I hate them!” She threw herself at the feet of her horse, exhausted. There was no alternative. She must go into the town. She had been eating nothing but berries for several days, and was hungry—so hungry. Again she peered over the crag and her eyes softened. If she only knew him, the flower man who lived down there in that speck of a house. He had smiled at her. Yes, as if he had understood and knew as well as she that her father was innocent. She clung to the earth in a spasm of grief at this remembrance. Again she was in that stifling little room amongst the ignorant crowd whose hungry eyes had so willingly sentenced her father to prison and left her alone and shamed on the top of the hill. How could she go down there amid their curious glances now. even for food? 53 The Spectrum June, 1921 Rut he had smiled at her and how beautiful were his eyes when he smiled. With the warmth of that smile still in her heart she re- turned again to her horse with renewed courage, and the two descended the path. At the foot of the hill the Philosopher was seated at a table among his flowers, writing in the early morning. He was smiling softly over his work when he heard the rolling of pebbles as if a horse were descending the hill. For some reason he did not look up until he felt the horse and its rider near the gate. Perhaps he guessed it was the timid little outcast whose father had so recently escaped his prison term by suicide, and did not wish to frighten her. When he did look up, it was just in time to see the red head droop over the horse’s neck and then—she fell. And this was how the Philosopher met Berry Bar- tholemy. He had his own reasons for coming all the way trom irginia to see her, reasons she must never know. Rut never in his wildest dreams had he imagined finding her so alone and miserable. In the warm summer days that followed, their friendship ripened, and one day in the early fall the Philosopher stood in the dingy court room, his white head raised proudly as he was sworn the legal guardian of Berry Bartholemy. Beyond miles and miles of railway from the little vil- lage, a man who might have been a mountaineer or a back- woodsman from his speech and dress was bending over a table by a small lamp. “A-p-p-l-e,” he spelled laboriously. “Fine,” a keen-eyed, merry looking, little woman spoke. “Now spell arithmetic.” “N-u-m-b-e-r-s,” spelled the old man as his eyes twinkled. “You’re coming on,” the teacher laughed, and closed the speller. “I guess we’re through for tonight.” Her keen eyes swept his face. She noticed the sensitively chiselled features beneath the full beard, the high forehead and the brooding eyes. She would have liked to question him. but felt instinctively that to do so would make him shrink into the sullen-eyed monster he had appeared to be when he first came for lessons. One thing she was sure of—that she was teaching a gentleman of rare possibilities to read and write, and naturally she was curious. Tonight he seemed to be brooding again. He said goodnight and 54 June, 1921 The Spectrum shuffled to the door. With his hand on the knob he asked without turning around: “How do ye spell—how do you spell Berry? “B-e-r-r-y.” “Thank you. B-e-r-r-y,” she heard him repeat to him- self as he closed the door. . Six years later the Philosopher was bending over his pebbles as he made a pretty pathway across his flower bed. The pebbles were carefully chosen, many of them being rare and beautiful agates. At his side a pale blue-eyed woman stood with arms folded. “It’s going to rain,” she finally announced. The Philosopher did not hear. One of his long, white fingers touched the ruby petal of a tulip. “It’s going to rain,” announced the woman again. “Forgive me. I was dreaming a bit,” apologized the Philosopher, throwing back his head to look at the sky. “Yes, it is going to rain. Do you want me to drive you home ?” “No.” The woman walked sullenly to the gate. The Philosopher followed her. “Did you see any you wanted?” He indicated his flowers. “Well, I thought maybe I’d like to get some of them forget-me-nots. You could take em to the station to her and say they’re from me.” For a moment the Philosopher forgot to smile. “My flowers, Nellie Henderson, are to give happiness to people, not sorrow. I know you came this afternoon to talk about the return of Berry Bartholemy. You and your clan don’t want her back on Lonely Hill. The property is hers and we can’t keep her from living on it, though God knows I wish I could for her own sake. She is of age, you know, and a college graduate.” He looked up at the sky. “Yes, I believe it is going to rain.” “It'll be a rainin' more than hail or sleet on Lonely Hill afore we’ll be a lettin' that Bartholemy kid tear down our houses and cut down our trees.” The woman's pale eyes shifted. “An’ where’d she git her money, says I, and says everybody else, and it's the talk of the town her engagin' herself to—” “Yes, I think it’s going to rain, Nellie.” remarked the Philosopher, closing the gate with a click. “And let me see,” he pulled out his watch, “the train comes in at five- thirty and it's almost five now. 55 June, 1921 A wagon rumbled around the pqrner. It was an ancient affair, driven by two enormous horses. VYJiat s the trouble wi ye, Nell?’’ called the driver. “ hat’s to keep ye from ridin home?” The driver slowed up as he spoke, anxl the woman climbed in. “He air goin’ to the station to git her,” was her only comment as the wagon began to ascend the road that wound its way up Lonely Hill. The Philosopher stopped on his way hack to the house to pick up a sweet jasmine vine that had broken loose from the trellis, as if weighed down by its own fragrance. The whirr of an automobile attracted his attention. And such an automobile! Never had the curious pines and watching firs that overlooked the town from Lonely Hill seen its like. It crept like a grey skinned cat to the very gate and paused, purring with satisfaction. The driver jumped to her feet and spread out her arms to the hills. “Oh, you are all there, every bit of you,” cried Perry. And, 0I1, how beautiful you are!” Then jumping from the car she met him. We were thirty minutes early, Mr. Flower Man,” she whispered as she kissed him. “Thirty whole minutes. Tangent and I heat the train. Isn’t he a beauty?” Again the Philosopher forgot to smile. But he had been doing that often of late. Perhaps, he thought to himself, he was getting old. “ by, Mr. Flower Man, you are crying. “I m jealous,” and all the merry glints returned to his eyes, jealous,” he chuckled, of Tangent.” Afterwards Berry never forgot the evening of her re- turn, or the merry luncheon with her guardian in his flower garden. She had told him of her graduation, her dreams and her love for Chad. Later Chad had come himself and the had talked upon the porch awaiting the coming storm. Once Chad had spoken of the automobile. es, I got it for Christmas, she had answered, hut she had not seen that in the shadows the Philosopher’s face Paled and little tired lines crept into his face. Then they had taken her to her home on the hill. “Some one in the house,” exclaimed Chad as they entered the gate. “Only some one I sent before me to get things ready.” Leri} ran to the door. Now you two skip along before the storm conies and please forgive me, hut I want to he alone just for tonight.” The Spectrum 1.1 56 June, 1921 The Spectrum After the two men had gone Berry opened the door gently and peered in. “Hit air her,” announced a shrill voice in a nasal tone. Berry looked into the face of Nellie Henderson. Surround- ing Nellie was a group of mysterious eyed people. A tall, stout man approached her. “The law of this town has decided that you cannot return here. Miss Bartholemy,” announced the Sheriff. “It has been decided that property bought and used bv money stolen from our bank cannot belong to you to build over or reside upon.” At the foot of the hill Berry’s flower man was pacing the floor of his room. “Tve had faith,” he was saying, “I’ve had faith all these years, but now what good does it do? If she will not ex- plain to me how can I help her? Chancellor Lee,” he turned to Chad, who was listening in amazement, “I am telling you this because your mother will if I don’t. She came here yesterday. You sec, she isn’t anxious that you marry Berry.” “You say her father is dead and you do not believe he stole the money,” Chad repeated mechanically. “Yes. lie escaped from prison, and during the chase fell from a cliff on Lonely Hill and drowned where the slough is now. He wasn’t of mountaineer stock. His father emi- grated from the south soon after the war. He was sick of it all and raised his son, letting him grow up uneducated, high on that hill when the eagles were more plentiful and wild bear meat was served on their table. I knew Berry’s mother. She was traveling through California when she met John 15artholemy, and to the surprise of everybody who knew her, married him. She was engaged to another fellow at the time, a graduate from Oxford. Now, here’s the sit- uation. Henderson and his wife have claims to Lonely Hill, but Berry owns the greater part of it. They are going to drag the thing into court and prove the land was bought with the stolen money. You know how your folks will feel when they hear about it.” The boy leaned against the window, his heart sick within him. “But you said you didn’t buy her. Tangent, and all the other things. Why didn’t she tell me?” “I don’t know,” the Philosopher shook his head, “but it s all right, boy. And if it should happen that she is spend- ing stolen money, what then ?” 57 TheSpectrum J une, i 921 “Oh! but that wouldn't be. Berry ’ cried the boy miser- ably. At this moment the phone rang and Berry's voice came urgently over the wire. A few seconds later the two men were rushing up the hill. Berry met them at the door, her face white and drawn. “Please send them away,” she pleaded, “please. “It’s just this way,” the Sheriff explained, raising his voice, annoyed by this new interruption. “She'll give up her rights here and now or he summoned into court tomorrow. “But I can't decide yet. Give me a few hours to think it over. I’ll phone you my decision. The house is already half remodeled, you see.” “We’ll just fix that all up, hon’,” a deep voice, vibrating with anger, caused the little group to glance at the top of the staircase, as a tall, white-haired, old man, smooth shaven and neatly dressed, stood watching them. As he slowly descended the stairs nobody spoke. Then suddenly the Philosopher recognized John Bartholemy. Berry clung to the banisters, white and still. “It’s all right, hon’,” his eyes blazed. “Your old dad'll fix it all up.” Me turned to the Sheriff. “I'm John Bartholemy, and I’ve come back to prove myself innocent. I didn’t want to before. I hated you and wanted to go away where I'd never see you again. I did go away and found these trees and rocks and hills were a mighty small part of the universe.” And so it came about old John Bartholemy had not drowned and all the ignorance and hatred of mankind rooted in the depth of his ignorance had been swept away before a never-ending desire to learn: How he proved himself guiltless by showing the money he had spent was obtained from a gold mine discovered by his father would be another part of the story, but suf- fice to say, he brought happiness to Lonely Hill. It was only yesterday I saw the Philosopher working at his pebbles and he was smiling again, as he whistled softly to himself. 58 June, 1921 The Spectrum June '21 Eunice Hudson LITTLE boy was riding in a street car, and, observing a kindly looking woman, he snug- gled closely up to her, and unconsciously rubbed his dusty feet against her dress. She leaned over to a woman on the other side of the little boy, and said shortly, “Madam, will you kindly make your little boy take his feet off my dress? The other woman said, “My boy? He isn’t my boy. The little fellow squirmed uneasily, seemed to be greatly dis- tresed, and looked disappointedly into the face of the woman who had disowned relationship to him. The woman whose attention had thus been called to the boy, presently observed that the child's eyes were fastened upon her with a peculiarly wistful expression, and she said to him, “Are you going about alone? “Yes, ma’am, he replied, ‘T al- ways go alone. Father and mother are dead, and I live with Aunt Clara, and when she gets tired of me, she sends me to Aunt Sarah, to stay as long as she will keep me. But they both tire of me so soon, I keep changing from one to the other. They don’t either of them care for little boys like me. fhe woman’s heart was drawn to the motherless boy, and she said, “You are a very little boy to be traveling alone like this. “Oh, I don’t mind, said he, “only I get lone- some sometimes on these long trips, and when I see some one that I think I would like to belong to, I snuggle up close to her so that I can make believe I really do belong to her. This morning I was playing that I belonged to that other lady, and I forgot about my dirty shoes. But she would not let me belong to her. Do you like little boys? The pitifulness of that appeal overcame all restraint of the woman's feelings, and regardless of a car full of spectators she put her arms around the tiny chap, hugged him close, and kissing him, said , “Yes, and I only wish you wanted to belong to me. The boy looked at her with rapturous content and replied, “I do. And she said, “You shall. The little hoy in his new home was the happiest boy in the whole wide world. Was he the only happy one in this little home? No, not at all, because there existed a real feeling of comradeship and the woman’s life was made much happier. 59 The Spectrum June, 1921 Amidst these happy surroundings, the little fellow grew to manhood, but not by spending his time in idleness. He wanted to become a famous lawyer when he grew to be a man ; he wanted to make his adopted mother feel proud of him. This worthy ambition was backed with a strong determination, the result being that he studied and worked hard. At last he won a famous case, and from this point, he really began to climb the rounds in life’s ladder. Later the kind mother was made exceedingly proud and happy be- cause her “little orphan” succeeded to the point where he wore the judges ermined robe. He became a person who is very useful in his country; but let us not think for a moment that at any time he forgot his fidelity to his foster parent. He cared for her as long as she lived, making her life just as happy as he possibly could. This little story portrays the most striking characteristics ot the June C lass of 21. In the class there exists a feeling of comradeship because the whole class is just like one large family, everything that happens in regard to the class being the concern and interest of all. Usefulness is another of the strong characteristics. The class as a whole has not only done many things for the good of the school, but it has taught the different members the value of making oneself useful. It has taught them that the first demand of usefulness is to do one’s work in the world, whatever it is, in the best manner possible; that everyone has his part; that each is as necessary as a cog- wheel in machinery. 1 lie June Class is also symbolical of fidelity, because it shows faithfulness in all tilings. V lien tasks are intrusted to it, it performs them without shirking; when work is to be done it performs it without delay. The members learned that when responsibility is laid upon them, they must shoul- der the load and fulfill the demand at any cost. Determination! Yes, this is the strongest characteristic. This trait is really the keystone of the arch of the characters of the different members. The determination of the class as a whole really increased the ability of the individuals to enforce upon the habit of life the practice of courage, self- reliance. obedience, patriotism, and indeed all the phases of conscious action. It increased the power of each to whip every faculty to the front and force success. It increased the spirit which says: “Where there is a will, there is a 60 June, 1921 The Spectrum Autobiography of a Violin Patsy Neilan HEY say that, as one grows older, the scenes of childhood grow nearer and dearer. So it is with me. My first days were spent in a quaint little village in Germany. It was Johann Jacobus who brought me into this world as he carefully carved me from bits of precious seasoned wood. Looking back, I see the little cluster of thatch-roofed cottages on the edge of a black and threatening forest. That was over three hundred long years ago. The village, the villagers and the forest are probably all gone now, perhaps supplanted by a thriving modern city. Carefully my maker carved me. Softly he rubbed the wood with tender hands, watching the grain become more distinct to his experienced eye. Years did he work, ever finding a new point to perfect. At last he had finished. Other violins Johann had made but I was his favorite. How dear to me are those tunes, folk songs and ballads, the first of my life time! Years passed and my mother was at last laid to rest. Even in his la$t moments he did not forget me. To his son he said, “Keep my violin, Frederick. Handle it gently and by it re- member me ’ I was not the only thing of which Frederick came into possession upon his father's death. There was money. In his happiness over the latter, I was forgotten and laid away on a shelf. The fortune did not last forever, though, and in the end I was able to be of service to Frederick after all. He sold me for a few marks. Then indeed did I begin a new life. John Flinch, my new owner, was an Englishman who had come to Germany to seek his fortune and had not found it. But he was young and very optimistic, and I soon grew to think of him with a love as great, though very different, from that which I had for Johann. Our life together was a roving one, starting with our voyage to England. A miserable, rough journey it was. We traveled in the hold, musty and dirty and very wet 61 The Spectrum June, 1921 before the voyage was over. On dry land again, I gave a sigh of relief. John sought everywhere for his fortune, but after many years gave up in despair, deciding that I was all he had. He became a wandering minstrel. Our life was a merry one, going from village to village, joy- fully received by all. After many such years we went together to London, city of fog and smoke, even then. Here it was that John fell in with a crowd of rough men who got part of their living by playing on the streets, the rest by means less honorable. How could John know that it was not for himself that they welcomed him, but because of the small amount of money he had managed to save against fast ap- proaching old age? Oh! but he found out all too soon. One dark December night when the rain was driving down in torrents, we met the five, bound to wait no longer for the money. Who would spend a night like that out in the cold and wet when the needed funds might so easily be obtained by one lacking in scruples? Standing in a secluded nook they talked together, planning the Christmas serenades and carols. Then came a stunning blow and I felt my master sink slowly. One of the brutes had knocked him senseless, a cowardly act, done as it was behind my John’s back, but there was no one to come to his defense. They rifled his pockets—and then, alas, they took me from him, leaving him lying there in the mud. In the grey hours before dawn the rain turned to sleet and then to snow. A penetrating wind had sprung up out of the north. Though 1 was safe and comfortable myself, I suffered much to think of that still figure, now probably grown stiff with cold, if not with death. I have never seen John Flinch since. The next occurrence which I can recall with any degree of certainty was one day when I was taken to what would correspond to a modern pawnshop. There I lay on a shelf for days and weeks and months. Then one day Aaron took me from my place, looked me over carefully and muttered something about “a pretty good old fiddle.” Two days later I saw Aaron as he really was, the sharp, unscrupulous swindler. He took me apart, belly and back, neck and hoop. Truly, if ever a mans heart was broken, mine was broken then. When lie put me together again, many of my original parts, fashioned by the master hand of a loving craftsman, had been sacrificed to give fictitious value to a clumsy, newly made instrument. A man has 62 June, 1921 The Spectrum strength and can fight for his rights. But for a violin, with only a soul and stronger feeling than any man, there is nothing to do but bear it. I don't know how many years I stayed with Aaron, but it seemed a very long time. He rented me to a great many different people who played at dances and weddings. In all those years there were only three persons who treated me with any consideration or love. Oh! how I longed for that tender care of my younger days! At last I was sold to a church in Ashton Underline, England, and again came happier times. During the hun- dred and nineteen years in that church, according to the old account books, I was played by seven masters. All of them gave me the caresses which I had missed for so many years. My last lover and best beloved in that little old church was David Baxter. A strong attachment grew up between us at the very start and at the end of forty years we thought we were inseparable. Then the blow came! All the instruments belonging to the church, including myself, were raffled off to raise money for a pipe organ. The man who won me sold me to Patrick Neilan for “the price of a pair of brogan shoes,” being the sum of one crown six- pence ha'penny. Patrick was a little lad of seven, but he loved music and, unlike many boys, handled me with due respect. At the age of twenty Patrick came to America, bringing myself and his pretty young Irish bride. After we had been in the States a short time, music lovers came to know my master and his violin. How proud I was to play under Pat Gilmore, when he lifted his baton over one hundred violins at Boston, Massachusetts. My heart beat high again, a few years later, when Pat- rick's young nephew drew his bow solemnly across my strings at Ole Bull’s wedding. After the grand event that famous violinist came to me and tenderly looking me over, praised the beautiful quality of my tone. For the fifty years that Patrick Neilan owned me I was hardly ever out of tune. It was a tragic moment when the Irish bride, grown older and much, much heavier, accident- ally sat upon me. While I was being put together, little Frances found me and dragged me about by the neck for a doll carriage. Poor little girl; she soon repented her mistake. Other stirring times came when Patrick played “The Star Spangled Banner, then handed me to John, his five- 63 The Spectrum June, 1921 year-old son, who played “Yankee Doodle as U. S. Grant’s train started for the front in 1862. How the patriotic blood thrilled through my veins. I was becoming Americanized. On the death of my dear master I went South with John. There in the land of the cotton I learned the songs of the darkies. I still had the same gentle treatment because of the great love John bore to his father and his appreciation of music. After fifty-five happy and peaceful years, during which John always came to me for consolation, he at last sent me West to a niece. That trip was a queer experi- ence for me. I traveled in my crude case, made in 1868 by Thomas Smith, the village carpenter at Pokerville, Wis., packed in the midst of a trunk filled with a girl’s pretty wardrobe. On reaching my destination I was carefully unpacked and fitted out with reverence. I spent the night in wonder- ing how I should like being played by a girl. The first thing she did after playing a few strains was to send me to a famous repair man. My hand carved bridge was changed for one a little less roughly cut. The pegs and tail piece which John had whittled were replaced by more smoothly polished wood. The worm holes were filled. Rut thank goodness! that man knew his business and did not chnage any of the essentials. Again I played for marching soldiers, this time in the hands of a girl, and for troops returning victorious. The strife is over. During the three hundred and seventy-five years of my life I have witnessed nearly every trial and joy hut I am happy now with the thought of those who love me. Very often John sends me messages and writes such tender words as “Pet the old fiddle and I know it will give you its best. It is just like a human, and petting brings the best out. Be good to it for my sake and its own.” Oh, he knows—he knows! I am happy now and do my best for the love of those who love me. 64 EDITORIALS ri Yr Vol. Twelve Portland, Oregon, June 1921 No. Eight The Spectrum is the official publication of the students of the Jefferson High School and is published by them monthly during the school year.

The building needed a name, so it happened that it was called Jefferson High School. These three words, “Jefferson High School, were a name and that was all. Next a man was placed in charge, a man of high ideals who had the welfare of boys and girls at heart, and then those three words began to acquire a definite significance. That was about ten years ago. Today, thanks to that wan and those associated with him, Jefferson High School stands for supremacy among High Schools. When the name of Jefferson High is mentioned, one does not think of a mass of building material, one thinks of all Jefferson stands for, and that includes the highest in ideals for young people. Edward Miller Do we, slanguage ? the present generation, speak language or SUCCESS VI R( a NIA BR )UG 11 TO N As the members of the graduating class turn for the last time from their studies and leave their high school days behind, they look forward into the future, and the one word uppermost in their minds is “Success. '1 here is not one of them but has his dreams of future accomplishments, his hopes of future success. But do they know just what is this success which they are to attain? In the world today there are two standards of success; two ways of measuring the worth of an individual s accom- plishments. Success, in one sense of the word, means the gain of material things, the concrete result of effort, the attainment of wealth or position or fame. Most people compute a man’s success by his bank account, the make of his car, or the size of his house. Perhaps these things do show success, but not in the truest sense of the term. Sometimes, some one stops to consider just why he was put upon this earth, just what is his mission in life. Invari- ably, his conclusion is—surely not to fill his own pockets with gold, his own life with ease, his own mind with the contentment of self conceit. I he greatest men in this world have been those whose lives were spent in the service of others, in the uplift of humanity, in forgetfulness of self 71 The Spectrum June, 1921 and sacrifice for others. Our bravest heroes are the thou- sands of obscure souls who labored to make another’s burden lighter, another’s day happier. The thinking people of today are coming more and more to the realization that the men and women whose lives have been spent in the interests of others, whose efforts have gone to the betterment of humanity, whose good influence has borne results, and who have done their share of the world's work—these are the true successes, even though they live and die in poverty. As we read of Florence Nightingale, Abraham Lincoln, John Milton, Theodore Roosevelt, and a score of others in every walk of life, we revere them and love them, because we know that their lives were given in all sincerity to their let them remember that others before them have asked the meaning of the word success, and that through all the ages from the long pages of history comes the answer: “He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of intel- ligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has never lacked appreciation of earth’s beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory, a benediction.” President Butler of Columbia University has sagely said: “It is well to have an open mind, but it is not well to have it open at both ends.” SPORTSMANSHIP Idelle Egbert “I’m not a-going to play with you any more. I’m going to tell my mother about you.” Who of us has not said this many times? However, we all used to dislike anyone whose especial feature was arranging for the chastisement of his playmates. What was there that we disliked in one who was continually “telling mother”? It was the lack of sportsmanship. Everyone is to achieve some certain greatness; one’s crown of success and everything one does is a step toward or one away from it. It is not hard to be a good sport when things come our way, and when we do not have to overcome obstacles to gain 72 June, 1921 The Spectrum success. It is often hard to be a good sport when one has done his best and lost, in the eyes of the world. The world, however, sets false standards and has (jueer ideas of suc- cess and achievement. It considers whether or not you rank higher than someone else. So it is not a test of strength when we have nothing to overcome. Our obstacles are merely opportunities to prove our worthiness. Therefore, we must not lose heart and be discouraged at things that stand in our way. “Every failure is a stepping stone to success.” So, if it is easy to be a good sport when things come our way, and if obstacles are our opportunities to show superi- ority, what excuse have we for not being good sports? The Spectrum June, 1921 14 oodland Scenes Marion Zollinger When the shades of night have fallen. And the full moon reigns supreme, When the flowers and birds are sleeping, And the world seems in a dream, When the brooklet sings its night song, And the zephyrs hum the tune, And the atmosphere is laden With the breath of early June, It is then, when all of nature Is so beautiful and free, That the fairies all assemble For their dance 'neath forest tree. Flowing veils of dainty colors Wrapt round forms of simple grace, Bands of tiny golden fireflies, All enhance this fairy place. Soon the fairies form a circle, Dancing round the royal throne, While the queen, with wand uplifted, Rules the rythmic steps, alone. Thus the merry dance progresses ’Till the first approach of day, But as soon as dawn awakens All the fairies haste away. Once again the moonlit heavens Overlook a spot serene, Xot a trace reveals the secret Of this pretty woodland scene. 74 June, 1921 The Spectrum TINtLY 0 ]TOFICS[M JEFFERSON STUDENT WINS HONOR AT COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY It is with interest that Jefferson hears of the success of her alumni in the various colleges and universities which they attend after graduation from high school. In a recent news clipping received by Mr. Jenkins from Columbia University, New York, mention is made of the fact that Charles Purdy, a former Jeffersonian, has been elected secretary of one of the college’s largest organizations, the Philolexian Literary Society. The society held a formal banquet on May 12, of which Mr. Purdy was chairman. A number of prominent men of today who were affiliated with the organization in past years attended the banquet. Among them were William Fellows Morgan, George Middleton, the playwright, and Ex-Ambassador William W. Gerard.—The Editor. The students of Room 66 regret the enforced absence of Miss Elder, due to illness. However, they wish to ex- press their sincere appreciation of the efforts of Mrs. Bertha Slater Smith, who has been in charge during Miss Elder’s absence.—The Editor. A SENIOR’S OUTLOOK Idelle Egbert “A Melody in F,” or maybe in U, is what we are all singing, now that reports will soon be out. But whether the melody be in F or U, and hoping that it is in G or E, we find the words to be the same: ‘‘Welcome, sweet Springtime, we greet thee in song. Murmurs of gladness fall on the ear, Voices long hushed now their full notes prolong Echoing far and near.” Yes, and the flowers are waking from sleep, balmy and life-breathing breezes are blowing, bestowing new vigor; 75 The Spectrum June, 1921 my heart beats with rapture anew as Earth’s fairest beauties again meet my view. Thus are all the qualities of Spring combining to awake, to r-invigorate, to thrill us anew. Indeed, that is Spring itself—it is the symbolism of renais- sance. For, after all, it is not new things that the different seasons bring; it is only a change, a renewal of the things we have known each year—each season is but a revolution in the cycle of things—but a link in our progression. In winter, the flowers and our hopes are not dead or passed; we need but the Springtime to develop, to bring them out. Like unto the seasons are our school careers. Whether a Freshman, a Sophomore, a Junior or a Senior, each is a revolution in the cycle—the years are not different, they arc but renewed. Each year we have the same pleasures, the same sorrows, the same worries and the same achieve- ments. When the cycle is finished, it has become but a revolution in the greater cycle. The work we do, our asso- ciations with others, our friendships, each is an outgrowth of the other. We cannot complete any of them ; they are con- tinual. It is pleasant to think that all is a repetition or a renewal —that nothing really dies, that each thing we think new is merely an outgrowth of something we thought dead. Each year has been an outgrowth—a progression from the last. Thus may it be in future years. Our graduation is not a completion of anything—it is merely a step to some- thing greater to which each future year will lead. THE HERONS’ NESTS Edna Mae Payton On a winding trail five miles from the road at Linnton are located the herons’ nests. A great deal of underbrush and logs cover parts of the trail and along the sides so that it is difficult to progress with much rapidity. An open space, with only a few immense fir trees that have no branches until at the very top, is known to be the location of the herons’ nests. High up in the branches of the trees, close to the trunks, are the nests. There must be a hundred or more nests in which the blue herons live. The nests are made of twigs, roots, and grass and are about three feet in diameter. Now is the time the young hatch out, as a few broken shells are found on the ground. The egg of the heron is five times the size of a robin’s egg. 76 June, 1921 The Spectrum 1 The heron lives on the water during the day, for this is where its food is found. It eats frogs, snakes, and fish. Sometimes the backbones of fish are found beneath the nests. The blue heron, which is three and a half feet high, has a long, slender neck and also extremely long feet and legs. Back of the crown on its head two long feathers project, commonly called the “topnot.” The bill of the bird is rather long and thick, the only means it has of protecting itself. The scientific clarification of the heron is a “wading bird.” It is said that the heron lives for sixty years. As the heron flies about, it moves slowly, making up and down strokes with its wings and its feet which are stretched out parallel behind move in and out a tiny bit. When a hundred or more herons live with their nests together, it is called a “rookery.” There are only two rook- eries in Oregon. So many herons, egrets and storks have been killed for their beautiful feathers that the National Association of the Audubon Societies has successfuly had some of the state legislatures pass laws for their protection. I sincerely hope such places as the herons’ nests will never be destroyed. 78 JANUARY. 22 Seniors! I wonder how many of us realize that the January ’22 class will soon reign supreme? With the pass- ing of the June ’21 class comes the rise of the January class to power. Although we are happy over this fact, we are going to miss the June class members very much, and it will take some time for us to become accustomed to their absence. Our hearty congratulations are extended to them, and may they have good luck in the years to come. On February 11. the January 22 class became an or- ganization. A 'hart time after, we chose Henna and Harding Gray for our class colors, and we also selected our class flowers and our motto. The members became acquainted at a get-together party on March 5. The gymnasium was gaily decorated in Kelley green and shamrock, and everyone enjoyed himself very much. The greatest event for the class was the receiving of their official “JV on April 6. With the pins we also wore our class colors. On April 2. the June ’21 class entertained the January '21 class at a dance given in the school gymnasium. We hope that our meetings will prove to be just as “peppy” and interesting next term as they have been during the past one. Alice Aldrich. Secretary. SPANISH CLUB The term is now drawing to a close and everyone is looking forward to the summer vacation, but the member of the Spanish Club are confident that this term has been the best term since the organization of the club. The most enjoyable affair of the term was the costume party given at the home of Chrystal Carrigan. Vice Presi- dent. Every meeting has been of great benefit to the mem- bers and one can notice the improvement that has been made in Spanish conversation. 79 80 The Spectrum June, 1921 We sincerely hope that next term will prove to he as successful as the past term has been. Elizabeth Strohecker, Secretary. PI DELTAS The Pi Delts have been kept very busy lately in making- good their offer to advertise any school activity. We fur- nished speakers for the recent “pep assemblies, for the tag sale, and for all the important baseball games. We hope the good work will be kept up next term. Unfortunately, the Pi Delts got the worst of the Pi Delt-Zeta debate, but we have two perfectly good alibis. In the first place. Edgar Pengra lost his pocket dictionary the day before the debate, so he was then forced to use words that his audience could understand. No wonder we lost! Moreover, we have it on a better authority than any Idelle Egbert quoted during the debate, that Idelle had a’ horse- shoe in her pocket, which is a direct violation of the debating rules. On Wednesday evening. May 11, we had a special meet- ing at the home of Edward Miller. The program included three solos by Frank Lacey, a cake-eating contest which was won by Mr. Lacey, and a pie-eating contest which was won by Fred West. A number of old members were present among whom were Walter Malcolm, William Wiley, Clar- ence Foster, and Bruce Curry. The Pi Delt number in the Live Wire Vaudeville was a big success. “By the Sign of the Owl. ye shall know us. Robert Berry, Secretary. TRAILS CLUB The last trip taken by the Trails Club this term was the hike to Whatum Lake. This marked the end of a series of very interesting hikes. The wind-up event of the semester was an enjoyable banquet given at the Oregon Hotel. The organization was started at the beginning of this year, and has proved to be a live club, as the members have taken an active interest in it. They have not only enjoyed the club, but have received a great’ deal of benefit from it. because it has given them a taste of outdoor life, and 82 Trails Club Girls’ Glee Club 85 Live Wires June, 1921 The Spectrum permitted them to see some of the wonder spots of our beautiful state. The Trails Club expects to take many more hikes in terms to come, and the present members sincerely hope that they will rank as high as those of the first term in the life of the organization. Carl Vreeland, Secretary. GIRL’S GLEE CLUB 1 he ('iris’ Glee Club has accomplished much this term, and we all feel that our efforts have not been wasted. We are hoping that the organization next term will equal the present one, and with the material we already have we are sure that it will. Alice Freeland, Secretary. LIVE WIRES One of the biggest events of the year, the Live Wire audeville, is now over and it came off with great success. All who saw it were glad they had had the opportunity to go. I lie two skits and other numbers were cleverlv pre- sented. 1 J,le ta� salc for 1,1 S term brought us a net total of S20 .40. 1’rizes were offered to the Live Wires sellin - the’ largest number of tickets. _ Clayton Scott, of Room 4, re- ceived the first prize o'f $5, and Emma Bowman received the second prize of $2.50. The freshman who sold the largest number was Jay Harden. This sale will help in getting supplies for baseball and track. 1 he moving picture machine has now been installed and this is cue great event in Jefferson’s history. The various organizations in the school have worked hard to raise funds for this project and as a result we have one of the best moving picture machines in Portland. The first picture shown was enjoyed by all who saw it. I 1 izes toi the Spectrum subscriptions were given out Ruby Warner receiving the first prize of $5. Carroll Bullen the second prize of $2, and Jay Harden the freshman prize of $1. For selling class play tickets, I lelen Shank received the hrst prize Charles Pacher, the second prize, and Lola bellman, the freshmen prize. . Rose Kennedy, Secretary. 86 87 French Club Kanadakas 68 The Spectrum June, 1921 hi Y The Jefferson Hi Y's have been very busy this term. With the co-operation of the June class and the students, the lli Y's brought back the Monday singing assemblies. The aim of the dancing campaign was attained. Posters were placed in conspicuous places about the gymnasium and everyone was reminded that it was up to himself to see that Jefferson’s standards were untarnished. The lli Y’s were one of the organizations that helped make the “Strenuous Life,” which was given for the benefit of the Junior Red Cross, a success. Besides our work, there is connected some ‘pleasure. Swimming, “Feeds” and other diversions were held during the term. d'he semi-annual Hi Y dance, given March 18, was said to be the most enjoyable of this and all preceding seasons. Remember J. II. S. ( Jefferson's High Standards). C a roll Bullen, Secretary. FRENCH CLUB The French Club has resumed its regular bi-monthly meetings, and all have entered into the work with a resolve to make up for time which was unavoidably lost. At a recent meeting, Lucy Hoover gave a part of the speech which was given at the reception of President Wilson in Paris at the Palais Bourbon, January 3, 1919. This made the club realize more than ever how welcome Mr. Wilson was in France, and what great love the people bore for him. As is the custom, a little humorous French play was also given, this time by Jane De Lin and Alice Fnderud. Una Davies. Secretary. ❖ KANA-DA-KAS “All's well that ends well.” The Kana-da-kas’ trip to Inarch Mountain wound up a very successful term. During the year, we have taken about twelve hikes. The official pins, in the form of K-D, were received during the latter part of the term. On June 10, the girls in the club who were graduating were entertained. At this time the girls presented the president, Margaret Hall, with a token of their appreciation for her work. Elizabeth Van Hook, Secretary. 90 Camera Club Naem phi The Spectrum June, 1921 CAMERA CLUB The Camera Club has had a very successful term, and several hikes have been enjoyed by the members. On Friday, May 12. which proved to be a very lucky day, the members brought their cameras to school and proceeded to “snap a number of the students. A large number of the members of the club are graduat- ing this term and we hope that next term the new mem- bers will try to continue the good work that has been going on during the past term. We have taken advantage of the sunshiny days, and those who graduate will have some pictures to remember the “Good cld high school days by, even though their mem- ories fail. “Freshmen may come, and Seniors may go. but our clubs go on forever.” Is it not true? Marguerite James, Secretary. ❖ NAMEPHI The girls of the club had a very good time making pop- corn balls at a party given at the home of l� essie Morrison on May 9. The sale of the pop-corn balls was held on Tuesday, May 10, and it re-imbursed the treasury to the extent of nine dollars. The girls made a hike on May 21. A large number of the girls will graduate in June, and of these, quite a few are planning to attend the Normal School at Monmouth during the summer season. Elsa Egans, a graduate of the January 21 class, who is teaching school at Sherwood, gave a pie social on May 20, which was well attended by the Xaemphi and their friends. Ruth Nixon, a graduate of the June '20 class and a Naemphi, is planning to spend her vacation in the Philippine Islands. The graduating girls wish all the girls success and hope the Naemphi will find many new girls in its ranks next fall. Charlotte Kirkwood, Secretary. TRI-ELLES The Tri-Elles, with an active membership of 75. have had a most successful term. First there was the annual banquet attended by all the Tri-Elles of the city. Following this was the get-together party, the purpose of which was 94 Clatawas Zeta Delta Sigma Spectrum Staff The Spectrum June, 1921 to get acquainted. Later tlie club had a skating party at the Oaks, and last of all, our initiation party was held. Mixed in with these were the monthly suppers at the Y. W. C. A. which were enjoyed very much. At our regular meetings, we have enjoyed interesting dis- cussions based on a hook about friends, and we have also had some very interesting programs. W ith the money earned at the candy sales which we have had this term we have done a great deal of philanthropic work. We intend to send several representatives to the Y. W. C. A. Summer camp at Siltcoos, where plans for next vear will be decided upon. All girls wishing to join our organization are invited to hand in their names for membership next term. Lillian Ricketts, Secretary. He CLATAWAS The Clatawas have this term started a club which will, m the future, prove one of the most popular clubs in Jefferson. I his term we have had several hiking trips, some of which have been long and others short. All the girls have very good times on each tramp. Our faculty advisers, Miss Boyle and Miss Poggott, have been very enthusiastic, and have offered us many valuable suggestions as to pleasant hikes to take. I his month we made a long trip up the highway. We took our own lunches and leaving early in the morning, spent the day tramping through the hills. We feel that, for a new club, we have accomplished a great deal, and that if. next term, the new members coming into the club are as “peppy” as the ones leaving it this term, the organization will be one of the finest in the school. Mildred Lutiier, Secretary. ZETAS As Mr. Reed says, “The last is always the best,” so we think the Zetas this term have been the best. Besides helping the school in all its activities, the Zetas have been interested in and have promoted the welfare of many organizations outside of the school. The girls have gone to the different hospitals of the city to entertain the children, they have entertained the girls of the Louise 98 Class Play Cast Boys' Glee Club The Spectrum June, i( 2i Home, and have assisted in selling tickets to raise money for the Albertina Kerr Nursery. One of the regular events of the term was the semi- annual debate with our brother club, the Pi Delts. The subject was, “Resolved: That the United States should have the largest navy in the world ’ The negative was upheld by the Zetas, who were represented by Jean Rugg and Idelle Egbert. The negative won by a two to one vote. Instructive and humorous debates are frequently held at the regular Zeta meetings, and besides these debates several girls take part in the program of each meeting. As the Zetas this term are fortunate enough to have a real musician, Patsy Neilan, and a true wit, Helen Pearson, the programs have been entertaining and worth while. hen the routine of school became monotonous, the Zetas and Pi Deits decided to have a joint-meeting. At this meeting, besides getting acquainted, the clubs decided to have a Hard Times dance. It is said that this dance was altogether the cleverest, peppiest, and the best that the “gym” has ever seen. A matinee dance was given by the Zetas and Pi Delts to raise money for the Community Chest Fund. The dance was a success from both a financial and social standpoint. The Zetas are proud of their work this term and an increased feeling of goodfellowship has been spread over the school because of them. Claudia Plank, Secretary. FIRE SQUAD Hie Fire Squad has now completed a very successful term. The speed in emptying the building from one minute, forty-five seconds to one minute, five seconds is a very excellent record for a school with 1935 students. There will be only two members of the staff left on the squad for next term, due to the number of boys graduat- ing in June, so there is a great opportunity for advance- ment. Arthur Samuelson will have charge of the Squad again next term. K verne Severance, Assistant Chief. 102 Usher Corps I Club 104 We have been continuing our regular Monday musical assemblies and have derived a great deal of pleasure from them. May 2, Dean Fox, who is the dean of girls at the Uni- versity of Oregon, spoke to the students about college life. She gave the students a very good description of the campus as it now is and as it will be in the future if it continues to grow as rapidly as is has the last few years. Edward Miller gave a humorous talk, advocating the tag sale for the benefit of athletics. May 12, a general assembly was called for the purpose of hearing the Girls’ Quartette from the University of Oregon. Mr. Dundorf, manager of the Glee Club, spoke to the students about the concert to be given in the evening. The quartette sang a number of songs which the students greeted with much enthusiasm. An organization has been formed this term by the name of the “Lamp Club.” This club is similar to the “J” Club, in that no one can be a member unless he has received an official pin. These pins are awarded in assembly to students who have received the most “E” averages during the year.

While there, my straying glance happened to fall upon a most attractive display of those useful little articles of feminine adornment known as combs. As I took a more careful survey of this bewitching display, there came to my rational faculty the story a friend of mine once imparted to my impressionable mind. In the year 1921, B. C., there was in a state of existence along the coast of Southern England, a tribe of uncivilized descendants of Adam who gained their sustenance by draw- ing from their watery habitations the fishes of the sea. On the remotest corner of this insignificant village there dwelt in harmony (sometimes discord), the worthy Azariah and his uncongenial consort, Ethelend. Women, according to my friend, even in that day and age, were exceedingly extravagant in their bodily adornment, so, ipso facto, the good Azariah was stricken with res angusta domi. Once, after an unsually wearisome day of labor, Azariah betook himself to his place of lodging. He had fond hopes of a supper and of a peaceful evening, reposing in his cranium ; but. as he entered his home his expectations subsided im- mediately. As usual Ethelend was complaining of her un- happy lot. The conversation which followed disclosed the fact that she was deeply greived because she did not possess the wherewithal to make herself beautiful. As the evening meal progressed, Ethelend never ceased to utter complaint after complaint. At last she presumed so far that her long suffering husband’s patience was en- tirely exhausted and as my friend expressed it, ‘‘the worm turned.” Azariah rose in his wrath; he seized a fish : he raised it in the air, he flung it at his wife! As it flew through the air the flesh of the fish separated from the bones and fell to the floor. The vertebrae that 107 The Spectrum June, 1921 had so long propelled its owner through the waters of the sea, lodged in the jet locks of the astonished Ethelend. Woman-like she hastened to find consolation with one of her fellow sufferers, but she was greeted with, “Oh, how lovely, when did you get it, I must have one!,, Thus combs were invented. From that time on, all through the ages women have appeared in public with many different shapes and styles of combs, my friend had con- cluded. At this juncture my meditations were interrupted by a student voice behind me, “Have you any of those new fangled combs the girls are wearing ?” The wrath of Jupiter Pleuvius, having been appeased, I walked on, wondering why on earth that man ever threw that fish at his wife. (The following is based upon an actual happening in Port- land, namely, the opening of a new Woolworth store on Broad- way.—The Editor.) HALF A BLOCK (With Apologies to Tennyson) ' Flora Wakefield Half a block, half a block. Half a block onward. Packed into trolley cars Rode the Six Hundred. Autos to right of them, Fords to left of them. Jitneys in front of them, Rattled and thundered. On through the streets they tore, On through the crowd they bore, To Wool worth's fifteen cent store. Rode that Six Hundred. Maidens and matrons hale. Tall spinsters slim and pale, On to the bargain sale Rode the Six Hundred. 108 June, 1921 The Spectrum When at that mart of trade. Stern faced and unafraid, Oh, the wild charge they made. All the clerks wondered. Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to pacify All that Six Hundred. On bargains still intent. Homeward the buyers went. With cash and patience spent And friendships sundered. What tho their hats sport dents, What tho their gowns show rents, They have saved fifteen cents, Noble Six Hundred.

Miller A mouse had ventured from his hole Decked in his best array, And goes to see the “Light of his Soul,” Who lives not far away, lie crawled along a six foot pole To see what he could see. When all at once—Alack ! Alack ! “I slip! I slip!” squeaks he. He slipped, he fell, and on his back He lit flat in a pail. Little Miss Mouse came screaming out As hard as she could wail. The pail was full and on a bet This poor mouse could not swim, To sink he must—but not just yet,— For Miss Mouse,—She jumps in! She did her best to save her love, By fate it could not.be,1 And as the water closed above, Her spirit rose to flee. So ends a tragedy so sad, If it hadn’t been thus, it might have been glad. And after all. I think you’ll find. Where e’er you go, that Love is Blind. Ill The Spectrum June, 1921 IVho s IVho W’e have a young leader named Chapin, As an actor his ways are quite takin’. He’s a guide without peers, So here are three cheers For our pilot, and king in “the makin’ ”! That “our Mary” is queen it is true, But the tale of her lamb is quite new, For when living was high, He refused to say die, So she ate her lunch without stew. There’s another young fellow you know, He’s the one with the pep and the go, Lars Bergsvick by name, W ho won all his fame, hen he buttled so stately and slow. Then we have our Anna (belle) Lee, Who dived in the deep, briny sea; “Hello, what is this?” Cried a startled young fish. “Oh, a young peach from E7D.” Who is it flies so fast down the hall ? She isn't so short, she isn’t so tall. She’s the girl worth your while, She’s the girl with the smile, “ irgy,” whose “Specs” are the best of them all. Bernice is an artist we boast, Of friends she has quite a host. When painting the sun, Or rollicking fun, We don't know which we like most. I've heard of a lady named Frances, Who swims quite as well as she dances. Whether driving a Ford Or striking a chord. It's all one to this versatile Frances. 112 June, 1921 The Spectrum Now then, “Gib” is the boy with a way, Who can argue on civics all day, But never complaint Or quarrel in vain, For he’ll run for next mayor, they say. Who’s the girl in the heart of the game? Who’s the girl with the popular name? ’Tis Lucy who sold, In blue and in gold. Her flowers for the M. P. F. fame. Our matinee idol can smash Both dishes and hearts in one crash. For you see it’s a fact, Bruce McGregor can act Along with his looks and his dash. Dot Larkin’s the girl that we like, As a friend we’ll say she’s all right, There’s a color means true, And her eyes are quite blue. Now figure this out if you’re bright. 113 Behind the Scenes Name Familiarly Known Their Forte Most Famous Line Anderson, Sadie______ Andrus, Fred ........ Andrus, John ........ Bareinger, Francis ..

Just before the game started, a little rain began to fall and. as the game progressed, it came down harder and harder. The athletes were drenched and the diamond be- came a sea of mud. The ball was so slippery that neither twirier would risk a hook and both relied on speed and con- trol to fool the opposition. The first inning was scoreless, but Jeff started the ball rolling in the second, when she marked up two runs, Price Sullivan and Leaf crossing the platter. The score stood 2-0 until the seventh when Jeff oiled up its bats and chased three more runs across the rubber. Leaf led off with a hit and took second on Weiser’s out. Brough- ton singled to right center, scoring Leaf, and was out a minute later when he overslid second on an attempted steal. Johnny Sullivan singled to center and stole second, Mim- naugh singled to right and Sully scored, George going to second on the throw to the plate. Burton punched out a hot line drive to right and Mimnaugh completed the circuit on the clout. This ended the scoring for the blue and gold nine. Benson came right back and chalked up two scores. Mills and Larson singled, Butler struck out, and Mills and Larson moved up a base on Grund’s infield out. Bennet hit a fly to right and Leaf, steaming in on the ball, ran aground on an island and the ball went over his head, two runs scoring. After Coach Clifford's team had scored three times in the eighth, the clouds opened up to stop the slaughter and Umpire Davis called the game. The lineup: JEFFERSON BENSON AB. R. H. E. AB. R. ii. E.

QUAKERS NOSE OUT DEMOCRATS 5-4 Jefferson lost her second league start to Franklin High by a 5-4 score. 1 he game was very exciting and should have had the spectators on edge. There was a noticeable lack of enthusiasm from the Jeff stands, however. The Jeff stands had lots of pep in the first and ninth innings, and in both stanzas the Democrats crossed the plate twice. Johnny Sullivan led off with a single over short and when the hrankhn fielder fumbled the ball, Johnny took second. Johnson hit the first ball pitched to him for a single to right, W illiams singled to left and Sullivan scored. Russ Burton then cracked a liner over second, but “Cutie” Shade speared the ball with one hand, Mimnatigh walked and Leaf singled to center, scoring Johnson. To get back to the game, Johnny Sullivan led off with a single over short and when the Franklin fielder fumbled the hall, Johnny took second. Johnson hit the first hall pitched to him for a single to right. Williams singled to left and Sullivan scored. Russ Burton then cracked a liner over second, but “Cutie” Slade speared the ball with one hand. Mimnaugh walked and Leaf singled to center, scorin0 Johnson. Franklin scored a run in the second and again in the fourth, tieing the score at 2-all. The score stood this way until the sixth inning, when the Maroon and Gray put over three runs on two hits and two errors. Then came the ninth inning. The Jeff stands awoke to the fact that this was Jefferson s last chance and raised the 134 June, 1921 The Spectrum roof with yells. Mimnaugh led off with a single to center. Leaf singled to right. 1 Sullivan doubled into the left field tennis courts, scoring Mimnaugh, after Weiser had fanned. Broughton poled a fly to center field. Leaf scoring after the catch and P. Sullivan going to third. The next man whiffed and the game was over. A large crowd attended and they certainly saw a good game. The lineup: JEFFERSON | FRANKLIN AB. R. H. E.| AB J. Sullivan, cf . .

The Democrats crossed the plate once in the first canto, but the Saints came back with a bang. ith the help of several errors and a couple of bonehead plays, they scored three runs in the second inning and two more in the third. At this moment Mr. Jenkins appeared, and his arrival seemed to restore the balance to the Jefferson team. Prom this moment the “double J lads were almost helpless be foie Broughton's slants, obtaining but three hits in the last six innings. The Jeffersonians struck their stride in the third, and from then on the battle was a runaway. The Democrats marked up three runs in the third five in the sixth, and five more in the seventh. R. Miller, James John center fielder, was painfully in- jured when Mimnaugh’s high fly suddently appeared from behind the sun and struck him in the face. Two runs scored on this play, which should have been an out. “Tiny Pete” Williams and William Price Sullivan fea- tured at the bat for Jefferson, while Weidner and Robinson 135 The Spectrum June, 1921 proved most successful among the loosers in their attempts to solve Shorty Broughton’s puzzlers.

Finally, she turned to a young man who was showing her through, and asked: “What is that big thing over there?” “That’s a locomotive boiler,” he replied. She puckered her brows. “And what do they boil locomotives for?” “To make the locomotive tender,” and the young man from the office never smiled. She—“While I appreciate the honor of your proposal of marriage, circumstances beyond my control compel me to decline.” He—“What are those circumstances?” She—“Yours.” 137 The Spectrum June, 1921 t D.
