Our School JLX mf HISTORY OF RIVER FALLS HIGH SCHOOL S this book is the first attempt of the River Falls High School to issue a year . book. it seems fitting that it contain a few glances into the past of our school. In 1854, less than a half dozen years after the very first settlers came into this valley, a tiny building, twenty by thirty feet in dimensions, was erected on what is now Fourth Street on the lot where the residence of Dr. Gallup now stands. The school site was donated by Powell Brothers. Mr. Lyman Powell was the father of Mrs. Weld and Mrs. Ensign of this city. The money was raised by subscription, and the building served as both school and church. Miss Helen Flint was the first teacher. Her salary was paid by subscription. The next year school district No. 1 was or- ganized and the management of this school was put into the hands of a school board. In 1856, the uRiver Falls Academyi' was built on the west side where the High School now stands. The funds for this building were raised by the River Falls Academy Association by subscription also, and the land was likewise donated by Powell Brothers. Professor Benjamin Wilcox was the first principal, with Mr. A. P. Weld, his assistant. This building was leased by district No. 1 from 1862 until they purchased it in 1865. It then became a public school Mrs. Alice Weld, who was then a little girl, tells of the joy and pride with which the children formed in line, and with their teacher at their head marched from the old one-roomed building on Fourth Street to their new building on the West Side. Here later, Mrs. Weld became a teacher in the primary department, with Mrs. Armstrong, of this city, as an assistant. At the same time, Miss Emma Levings was principal of the upper grades. It was during this time that the first attempt at grad- ing and systematic promotion was made. The old academy was destroyed by fire in the fall of 1879. A temporary build- ing was erected, and a year later a five-room brick building was constructed. This now comprises the east wing of our present building. Since then additions on the west, north and south have been made. Page Ten -E132 As the school increased in size new courses of study, and new methods of teach- ing were introduced At a meeting of the school board held June 28, 1884, a reso- lution was passed for the establishment anad maintenance of a high school depart- ment. The old records which we still have on file, show that the first algebra class was comprised of two students, the physics class of one, and the literature class of one. The next year showed a wonderful growth for four pupils took Latin, Botany, Geology and Rhetoric. This first high school course, covering a period of three years, wtas continued until 1894- when it was changed to a four-year course. At this time, also, the high school became an accredited school under the principalship of Prof. H. L. Wilson. The first class to graduate was the class of 1887 of which there were five mem- bers. Diplomas were given to the following people: Anna Burhyte, now Mrs. Fred Lord of this cityg Mary Evans, who later became Mrs. H. W. Marsh, and is now residing in Milwaukeeg Walter Campbell, deceased, Charles Putnum, now living in California, and Angus Morrow, who is in Walterville, Oregon. So bit hy bit, the public school of River Falls has developed until this year, 1922, we are sending from our ranks forty-five people-the largest class which has ever been graduated from this institution. All honor to those public spirited pioneers with vision, who amidst their strug- gles in a new country full of privations and dangers found time and means to lay the foundation for a school system which has furnished us such rich opportunities. KENNETH HEALY '22 A PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATION CMRS. HILL.l PARENT-TEACHER Association was organized in November, 1921. This or- ganization was the result of the growing interest of a few parents in the welfare of the school. It was a move for which Supt. Davee had long hoped. Witli Mr. Mason and his able corps of teachers assisting, the results have been most gratifying. The object of such an association has been to secure a better understanding on the part of both teachers and parents, of the many problems of education which con- front the thinking people today. Never has there been such a widespread interest aroused in education. With parents and teachers co-operating in such an organiza- tion. the satisfactory work done in our school can be doubled. The officers elected for the year were: President, Mrs. Pomeroy, vice president, Mrs. Tubbs, secretary and treasurer, Mrs. Kulstad, Prof. Olson, Ex-State Superintendent of Schools of Minnesota, spoke at the first meeting in ,lanuary on What America Has Done for Mef' Judge Perrin of the Superior Juvenile Court lectured at the February meeting on Child Welfare.'7 In March a health program was carried out. Several local doctors and dentists and Mr. Cridcr, Physical Training Director, presented different subjects pertaining to the health of the individual pupil as well as to the school as a whole. A question box in April cleared up several perplexing problems and helped to fulfill the original object of the organization. The year closed with a picnic in May with everybody feeling that KA task, well begun, is half done. From a membership of forty, the association grew to one hundred twenty-five. Witli this number of vitally interested people all working together with but one aim -the betterment of our school-the future with its call for new buildings, better equipment, and the best instructors, holds much promise.

J-5335322 MRS. INA SIMS Senior Class Adviser P ge TI 1 JT Q SUPERINTENDENT H. A. DAVEE Pg F L TO THE CLASS OF 1922 By H. A. DAVEE, Superintendent Hove you fuilh in yourself? Do you want to win? ls your hour! for success nthrob? Tlzcrzfs just one thing that can bring you in With the winners-love your job. OU are right anxious to he of some service in the world-you want to succeed-you want to be happy. These ends can best be attained by finding the thing you want to do and then doing it a little better than anyone else. The only great works in literature, art, agriculture or what not, are poured hot out of a soul for the pure joy of self-expression. No really great work ever was or ever will he done for pay alone. It isn7t of so much consequence what particular vocation'you may follow. The thing that is of greatest consequence to you and to others is the amount of intelligence you put into it, and conse- quently the amount of joy you get out of, the work you do. Some folks imagine they are paid for what they dog this is not true-they are paid for what they think while they are at work. Hllye live in deeds, not years, in thoughts, not breathsg In feelings, not in hgures on a flial. We should count time by heart-lhrobs, he most lives Who thinks rnosl, feels noblest, fzcls the bestf, Page Fifteen TO THE SENIOR CLASS By H. C. MASON, Principal F I were to select a class motto, I know of none better than this--Wlihe great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction are we moving. We have had some vivid examples of this during this school year. Students from whom we expected much, have done little, and others from whom we ex- pected little, have won high honors. It is not where we stand that counts most, but the direction in which we are moving. Oliver Wendell Holmes says-and if you have not read the Autocrat of the Breakfast Table, I suggest that you put it on your reading list for this summer,- To reach the port of heaven we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail, not drift or lie at anchor? Grow we must, even at the risk of out-growing all that we love. Sooner or later we may have to leave our home town, we may have to part with life-long friends, go to new places, meet new people, and face new problems. And we must not tarry too long nor be too sentimental. We must not fail to give the best we have to those who have a right to expect it. Let us sail then, for we must sail. B-ut as we bowl along uwith foam sparkling at our bowsv let us not forget those little acts of appreciation and kindness that make a rough trip worth while for those whose ships must be towed into port. Your class has shown unusual wisdom in the 'things it has chosen to do as well as the things it has chosen to leave undone. In choos- ing lVlrs. Sims as your class adviser and dedicating this book to her, you have expressed your appreciation of a teacher who ever keeps your happiness and success as her chief objective. We confidently hope that you will always be as considerate of all of those-father, mother, brothers, sisters, and friends who have helped you to be what you are-people whom you may outsail, but whom you can never quite repay.

Tho often thoughtless and seemingly unappreciative, we ever know that 'tis through the nohle ideals, the patient gentleness, and the heroic sacrifices of our fathers and of our mothers that we have made our small successes. ' To them-above all others-we shall owe whatever of good may come into our futures. ONLY A DAD Only a dad with a tired face, Coming home from the daily race, Bringing little of gold or fame To show how well he has played the gamcg But glad in his heart that his own rejoice To see him come and to hear his voice. Only a dad, neither rich nor proud, Merely one of the surging crowd, Plodding along in the daily strife, Bearing the whips and scorns of life, With never a whimper of pain or hate For the sake of those who at home await. Only a dad, but he gives his all, To smooth the way for his children small, Doing wi-th courage, stern and grim, The deeds that his father did for him. This is the line for him I pen: Only a dad, but the best of men.-Guest. MY MOTHER'S WORDS O you know that your soul is of my soul such a part, That you seem to he fiber and core of my heart? None other can pain me as you, son, can dog None other can please me or praise me as you. Remember the world will be 'quick with its hlame If shadow or stain ever darken your name. Like mother, like son, is saying so true, The world will judge largely of mother by you, Be this then your task, if task it shall he, To force this proud world to do homage to me. 'Be sure it will say, when its verdict youive won, uShe reaps as she sowedg this man is her son. -West Point Handbook. Page Twenty- Two -QE Eff I ,f fr! 1 If XXAI iw s .

A. 4. 16313552 SENIOR HISTORY ct-IAPTER 1. N tlte beginning of the ninth month in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighteen, there entered into this Hall of Learning sixty seekers of knowledge. Some came from the lower grades, some from the Normal School where they had for many months drttnk long and deeply from tlte unqueneltahle fountains of knowledge therein found, and some were green and fresh from the country where they ltad been tillers of the soil. And it came to pass, as they entered this I-lafl of Learning, they were received with wild re- joicing and much bawling Utll by those who would henceforth be their companions in the slippery paths of knowledge, And it came to pass that a woman called Williams, a woman wise far be' yond her years, was appointed to rule over this band and to lead them in paths of righteousness. And unto her were given many to assist her in her arduous duties, and these did labor long and earnestly with this hand, but to small avail. Now it came to pass that this body felt the need of a closer bond so they issued a call unto all their members, and they gathered together and organized themselves into a class, and they chose a leader and they called him president. And they said, Lo, this task is too great for Bird alone, and they appointed to serve witlt him, Brown and Baker. Then they said i'That all men may know us, let tts hedeck. ourselves with green and whitef, New so great was tlte lvrilliancy of this class that their light could not be hidden, and honors came unto them even in the first year. They sang songs of exceeding beauty and sweetness, and one Bird did argue with powerful and convincing speech and bring home to lay at their feet a lteautiful banner. And now it came to pass. as this sixty dwelt longer in this land, they fell in with the customs nf the inhabitants and their greenness and strangeness wore away, and they became as the rest- eotttented attd happy. CHAPTER II. . Now it came to pass at the beginning of the second year, that much disappointment and sorrow fell upon these people, for many of their number had journeyed into far lands, and many of their leaders, likewise, had wandered afar. Now these remaining youth did elect to rule over them-Chapman, Bailey, and Enloe-and that they might continue to stay in tlte paths of rectitude, they asked Miss Williams to watch over them. This same year, tlte members of this Hall of knowledge cltid proclaim with much rejoicing a puhlie entertaintnent-a circus. And tlte merriment did wax hot and furious. Now chief of all these entertainers were tnentbers of this noble band of youths for they did put on many jovial stunts and they did blaeken their faces, and sing many songs and propottrtd many hilarious jokes. And again, did this class capture many and great prizes for tlte men formed themselves into a team, and they sallied forth with a ball and did so kick this ball and so valiantly attack all others who opposed them, that defeat never once came upon them. And the women of this band were filled with pride and said, That our hero men may continue to so struggle and fight and sltow much courage, let us feed them with choice viandsf' And they prepared a great feast and bade unto this feast. all these brave and strong men, and they did eat and drink and make exceeding merry, and their eourage was renewed sevenfold, so that they went forth and conquered manv other teams. Thus winning many laurels did this wonderful class journey onward toward its final destination. Page Thirty- Three rarer CHAPTER Ill. Now it came to pass that the third year, there returned, unto the Halls of Learning five and forty brilliant Juniors whose minds were filled with visions of someday being Seniors. Now the class of 1921, were soon to leave the royal halls for far countries, and the hearts of the class of 1922 were filled with good will and kind thoughts for the Wanderers so they planned a grand ball to which many friends should be summoned. This brilliant aflair was held in the gymnasium of the Mansion of Learning and much money was brought to the coffers of the class that the place might be made very beautiful and that sweet music might be discoursed. Messages were sent east, west, north and south saying, Come ye, and make merry with us for the class of 1921 is to depart. into a far countryfl And many came and they apparelled themselves in beautiful raiment and with glad words of good cheer and encouragement did bid farewell to the class of 1921. CHAPTER IV. Now, this the fourth year of this great and wonderful class has been one of much hard labor, but of many laurels, and well earned victories. For it came to pass, that in this last and most eventful year of their sojoum in this Hall of Learning, there came to rule over them a wise and learned man, called Mason, who inspired all the band with great spirit and ambition. And he said unto them, Let us study and work to- gether many long and tedious hours, and let us become exceeding wise and very proficient in our speech, and then we will go unto other lands and vanquish many tribes with wise and learned debate. And they did meet and pondered many books and this learned man did wax wroth and did overwhelm and crush each and every one with harsh and vehement criticism and there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth amongst them. But being filled with great courage and much devotion to their band, they rose up again and put forth renewed effort, and they armed themselves with many and divers cards and went forth and defeated the band of Ellsworth, New Richmond, Ladystnith, Portage, Augusta ,Brillion, and Appleton. Verily, the entire state was vanquished by their eloquence. ' Great honor and rejoicing came thereby to this Mansion of Learning, and to the oity round about. Moreover, one of their number called Driscoll, did likewise bring unto his tribe great honor and renown, for he did so toss the ball and run and jump even above all others that the sages of the land did announce unto all the world, Behold, this man Driscoll! He with four companions shall be exalted above all others, and they shall he called, 'The first tournament team.' 1' Now the courage and pride of this class had grown to a wonderful bigness, and their leader, by name Moe, did call them all together and discoursed unto them in this wise: Great and Noble Seniors, we shall soon leave this Mansion of Learning to go our many ways-perhaps never to meet again. Now it is altogether fitting that we have a record of our many deeds of nohleness and bravery. Let us issue a book where in shall be engraved the faces of our leaders, and the faces of each and every member of our band, and let us record in this book the courage and valor our heroes, so that when the days of darkness and sorrow and old age shall descend upon us, we may read and greatly rejoice, and our hearts shall be stirred and our burdens shall he lifted. And this class being ever brave and loyal did agree and one Brown arose and did say, Let us call this book 'Kinnick' that it may ever remind us of the stream flowing by the homes of our youth, and the class was well pleased. And many did assemble for exceeding long and numer- ous hours and did give the best of their time and mind unto this book. ,And it came to pass that these people did choose a ring as a symbol of loyalty and devo- tion to each other and to this Hall of Learning, and they placed their rings upon their fingers each and everyone, and made a vow that by their deeds they would prove this loyalty and devo- tion to all the world. V But it is written, Hln the day when ye shall have eaten of all these fruits ye shall surely be driven from the land. Now 1 say unto you each must depart hence and each go his separate way into lands he kno-ws not of. May the blessings that ever attend the noble, brave, and true, and the reward that crowns work well done, come to each and every one of the class of 1922.

Page Tlxilty-Six JT JRE Eiff- CLASS PROPHECY 'I' was on .lilly lfli, I930, that I, Margaret Bailey, world famed reader and impersonator, left my mansion in Shell Lake to begin summer tours with the Redpath Chautauqua. Saying good- byc to my ever-faithful butler, Orford Prisk, and my most willing little maid, Mildred Kuschcl, l left for River Falls, where my first lecture of the season was to be given. River Falls is a thriving city, the inhabitants of which think only of pleasure and entertainment. Everybody in the U. 5. who seeks for pleasure turns his foot-steps toward River Falls. Arriving at the sta- tion, I bought my ticket of a most pleasant and accommodating agent, my old class-mate Clyde Taylor. He wished me good luck and I proceeded on my way. As I glanced up at the conductor. I was surprised to find that it was another old class-mate Maynard Fnloe. Nlaynard ltowevcr, did not recognize me and passed 011. I did not draw his closer attention, fearing if he recognized me he might ask me to marry him. I was doomed to H still greater shock, however, for coming down the aisle of the car was Helen Mooney. Helen, a nationally known movie actress, was on the screen for the famous Thomas Ince Corporation. My attention at this point was attracted by a very tall man shouting, HPaper, paper. As he came closcr I was awe struck to see that it was Cecil Iilill, one of the most studious in my class at High School. Such a fate for a brilliant student! I felt sorry for poor Cecil and bought a paper from him. Looking at the paper. imagine my joy when I read the glaring headlines. Baker Pro- poses Amendment to thc Constitution! I always knew Bake had it in him for I recalled the ficry eloquence of his rebuttal in the debate of 1922. Another Haring headline caught my eye and l read that Winfred Bird and Bessie Moe, noted moonshiners and liquor smugglers, had been caught in the most thrilling capture ever made. Clifford Evenson, shrewd detective, and Ken- nctlt Ilealy. a dashing, fearless policeman, were credited with the capture of these criminals. To think that they were my former class-mates. Reading on I came to these words: 'iGeorge Hut- chins with his great diplomacy accomplishing wonders as prime minister to France. Good for George! I knew he would atnount to something some day! lVhen I bought the paper from poor Cecil, I never knew that I would learn so much con- cerning my former class-mates. ln this paper, Catherine Chapman told of her experience as a Chinese missionary. Coming to the society section, I felt another great thrill as I read of the largest and most brilliant social event of the year in which Eva Gaiiield, Marie Haugh, and Maymc Hawkinson, world famed society queens, entertained the Prince of Wales. One thousand guests were said to be there. Looking out of the window, I thought I recognized the farm of Douglas Corson. I was right, for there arm in artn Cas they were in the old school daysl were Douglas and Eva driving home thc cows.. It made me feel happy to think that they, at least, were contented on their little farm. Contentment, thou art a jewel! I turned the sheets of my paper over mechanically until I came to the sport page and there in big print was an account of how Carrol Lindquist retained his titlc as champion heavy weight boxer of the world hy defeating the famous Dempsey. A pic- ture on this same page caught my eye for I thought it appeared familiar. Slure enough! It was a picturc of Kenneth Luberg, the champion horseshoe pitcher of Pierce County. The brake-man shouted out River Falls, don't forget your packages, and I prepared to leave the train. As I aligbted and hurried through the station with the rest of the mob, a young man selling fruit at one of the numerous booths attracted my eye and I saw that it was Floyd Pearson, another one of my old chums and class-mates. I could not stop and talk with him, how- ever, as my time was limited and I hurried to the street. A young gentleman grabbed tny arm and said i'Taxi, uptown? I immediately recognized Wayiie Taylor and I got into his Lltlt0. He was a wonderfully expert driver and a most willing talker. A traffic cop was waving his signal to the throng of motorists and as he appeared fam- iliar I asked the pleasant Wayne who he was. He replied that it was Carleton Ames, one of our old classmates. Turning a corner sharply we almost ran into a street sweeper whom I immediately knew to be Carroll Brown. Mr. Taylor then explained that Carroll had invested all his wealth in a glue deal and lost fame and fortune, and now had to sweep the streets for a living. Poor Carroll, and such a brilliant promise! This certainly was a day of surprises for the hotel clerk Page Thirty-Seven g JT f was the loquacious Belden Thelander. Do you remember that he was always thus? As I had a little time before dinner, I thought I would take a walk through the city, in hopes of' finding old landmarks. I had not gone very far when I came to the Gayety Theatre and being a little curious stopped and looked at the program for the evening. Irene Noltner, the queen of the show and her dashing-dazzling troupe of assistants consisting of Grace Wilton, Frances Webster and Inez Bjersted were to perform that evening. Well, well, how little we can see the future. Walking on, I passed a man shining shoes and saw to my surprise that it was James Mcliahan. He was too busily engaged to notice me and fearing his pride would he touched, l passed, on. At the next corner a tall heavy man walking with a stately stride caught my eye and I inquired of a small boy who he was. The boy said, That's Stanley Hall, our Mayor. Why, don't you know him? He's the biggest man in River Falls. We sure think a lot of him. Guess you don't know all heis done for this city. Guess you must be a stranger. Going on farther, I saw a large gathering of people listening with awe, at the magnificent voice of Mary Enloe, who, perched high on a pile of boxes was holding a breathless crowd in awe struck silence. She was convincing them that dancing was the best means of recreation and ex- ercise. As I needed a hair-net, I went into a ten-cent Store and asked a most elaborately gowned clerk for one. A more careful look at this clerk told me that it was Lucille Stevenson. After a few minutes of joyful reminiscences, I turned to leave, when a beautiful voice from the rear of the room made me halt. Turning around, I saw that it was Ruth Scott, singing the popular pieces of the day. My time was limited and I found I must return. On the way hack, I passed another place of amusement where the bills said that George Driscoll and Florence Bennett were to sing in Grand Opera. Reaching the hotel, I met Alice Lindquist who was employed to clean machines for the Underwood Typewriting Company, After my lengthy walk through the Gala River Falls, I had a longing for something to eat and sat down for dinner. A smiling young waitress came to me and I saw that it was Harriet Liedman. She was very glad to sec me and we talked over our past experiences. Harriet told me that Frances Mooney used to be cashier in the hotel dining room but a certain young fellow came in one day and since then they have seen nothing of Frances. That night I talked to the largest audience I ever expect to see. After the lecture zt beautiful young woman, dressed in the most wonderful gown and wearing priceless sparkling jewels came to me and invited me to her house for the evening. Under the sparkle of jewels and the glow of her beauty, I finally recognized Gladys Segerstrom. Gladys told mc that she was married to Richard Smith who had made tnillions as a short story writer. Getting into their luxurious car, we went to the Smith residence. Arriving at this home, a pretty maid whom I recognized as Evelyn Sonmor, took my wraps and I sank into a large leather rocking chair, by a mammoth fire- place. I was gradually falling asleep when the loud ringing of the door bell aroused me: I was most pleasantly surprised to find that it was a group of former class-mates, who hearing that I was at the Smith residence, had come to greet me. We talked over and over the many happenings of those good old school days which we all agreed were the happiest ones of our lives. As the shadow of night changed to slaty grey foretelling the coming of the morning. we gathered around the piano and sang our dear old class song, the words of which l distinctly remember ran as follows: O, River Falls, dear River Falls, To thee we will prove true 'Twill be our aim to bring thee fame Whate'er we chance to do. No matter where lifc's path may lead We'll strive to do the right And ever we'll he loyal To the Orange and the White. -RICHARD Swtrri-r, '22, Page Thiflv-Eizhl 55551322 ORATION RONALD BAKER ULl'l,'lCAl,, and religious reforms move slowly. We change our beliefs and at the same time hold fast to old customs. Far-sighted public opinion has declared war to be unchristiang sound statcsmanship has slumped it as unjustg the march of events has, in the majority of cases, proved it to be unnecessary, and yet we continue to build mammoth engines of destruction as if war were inevitable. Truly, the millennium is not at hand, nor is war a thing of the past: but. whereas war was once the rule, now it is the exception. This is an age of peace, controversies once decided by force are now settled by arbitrationg during the last fifty years the United States has had only five years of foreign war, while during the same period more than one hundred dis- putes have been settled by peacefulmeans. The willingness to arbitrate has been manifestg the means have been providcdg the permanent League of Nations' Board formulated by President Wilson actually lives and has already adjudicated five important controversies. But arbitration, you say, will never succeed because the decisions cannot be enforced. You forget that already some two hundred and fifty disputes have been settled by this method, and in not one instance has the losing power refused to abide by this decision. Yesterday the man who advocated universal peace was called a dreamerg today throughout the world, organized public opinion demands the abolition of war. Yesterday we erected statues to those who died for tlteir countryg today we eulogize those who live for humanity. Yesterday we bowed our heads to the god of warg today we lift our hands to the Prince of Peace. l do not mean to say that we have entered the Utopian age, for the present international situation is a peculiar one since we are at the time blessed with peace and cursed with militarism. This is not au age of war, yet we are burdened by great and ever-increasing armaments, we are inventing ucw and more deadly machines of destruction, while the relative strength of the powers remains practically the sameg the intense and useless rivalry of the nations goes on, until, accord- ing to thc great Russian economist, Jean De Block, it means slow destruction in time of peace or swift destruction in the event of war. In Europe today millions are suffering the pangs of abject poverty in order to support this so-called armed peacef' Note the condition in our own country. Last year we expended on our army, navy, and pensions, ninety-three per cent of our total receipts. 'fhinli of il! ln a time of peace and reconstruction, over nine-tenths of our entire expenditures arc charged to the account of war. Now we do not advocate radical, Utopian measuresg we do not propose immediate disarmament. but wc do maintain that at a time when millions of Russians are starvingg when the French government, having exhausted every source of revenue, reports a yearly deficitg we do maintain that when such is the sittvalion, sound statesmanship demands that we keep abreast of the times, ccasc to consider great armaments a necessary evil, and take immediate steps to limit preparations for war by international agreement. What are we doing to meet this responsibility? lt is true that we have limited our navies to a small extent, that we have organized societies in behalf of arbitration and disarmament. On the other hand, we are no longer trusting our neighborsg we are warning them to beware of our mailed hslg we are thereby declaring to the world that we have lost our faith in the power of justice and are now trusting in the force of arms. And why this paradoxical situation? Why do we at the same time prepare for war and work for peace? lt is simply because many of the world statesmen believe that the best way to- pre- serve peace is to prepare for war. lvlilitary enthusiasts would have us believe that to presewe peace we must train the youth in military tacticsg we must teach the young man to be suspicious of all other nations, and to believe that some day he will be called upon to defend his country against the wanton aggression of England. Japan. rr France. Prepare. not for the probable. but for the possible, they say. Seize every questionable act of our neighbors, magnify it a thousand times, publish it in letters of Hame throughout the land. and make every American citizen believe that the great powers are prepared to destroy us at any moment. Having educated the people up to a sense of threatened annihilation. Page Thirty-Nine JT gf burden them with taxes, build artificial volcanoes dedicated to peace, parade them up and down the high seas, and defy the world to attack us. Then, they say, we shall have peace. ls this reasonable? It is true that a certain amount of strength tends to command respect, but as sure as thought leads to action, so preparation for war leads to war. The best way to preserve peace is to think peace, to believe in peace, and to work for peace. How much better it would be, if we were to follow an educational plan such as the following: teach the people, that a gentlematfs agreement between nations is as valuable as a promise in private lifeg that to trust and not to suspect a neighbor is the best way to win his confidence. Show them the exact existing conditions in every portion of the world and the fundamental causes of war will remove themselves. Public opinion carries such a weight that, once in motion, there is no obstacle too great to overcome. Lucia Ames Mead, in a speech after th.e world war, says that if one-fiftieth of the whole amount that the United States spent in the past war had been used to educate the people, to tell the t1'l1il1 and not to spread falsehoods, to establish peace and not to prepare for war, it would have prevented the twisted logic and tl1e ignorance of economic laws which were the fundamental causes of that war. After this plan of education has been completed, the League of Nations will step in and not only promote peace but make war merely a memory in the minds of the people. How, we are asked, will the League of Nations prevent war? Did not the union of the English Colonies in America stop the strife between them? Do we have quarrels to-day between states of the Union which result in bloodshed? The League of Nations provides for three things which would settle any quarrel that might arise: lt provides first for a conference of the members of the league. This alone would suffice to settle nearly eveiy dispute, as is shown by the opinion of Viscount Grey in l1is statement that the Austro-Serbian quarrel of 1914 would have been settled within a week if it had been submitted to a conference. in event of the failure of a, conference, a commercial inter- dict would be applied to the offending power. This would consist of the severing of all relations and the elimination of all commerce with this nation. This would bring tlte strongest power in the world to terms, because no nation can at thc same time exist on her own resources and carry on a war of aggression. Last of the three points, the league provides for an international police force lnade up of proportional strength front each member of the league. This police force would be strong enough to conquer any one or two offending nations, and yet there would be no large loss for every country, such as the present system calls for. Not only would this plan shorten wars, but it would actually avert them, because to declare a war of aggression under the shadow of such a pact would be suicidal. Who is better able to meet this situation than America? England cannot take the initiative. So long as the other nations of the world keep their armaments, Engand must have her navyg it is lter only safeguard. France cannot disarm first, surrounded as she is by military Germany and Bolshevist Russia. Who then is there to lead the way? None but America!! We belong to no entangling alliances, we have no need for large armaments to protect our bordersg our outlying possessions are not benefitted but hampered by our large navy. We find that, should any nation wish to seize the Philippine Islands, we could do nothing to stop them. It would take two days for our fastest ship to go from San Francisco to their aid. No longer can this world be lJll1'ClCIlCCl with militaristng it endangers lives' and policicsg it provokes war and it hampers progress. We have become a world power, and therefore we have a world-wide responsibility, and that responsibility is to establish justice, not forceg to build colleges, not battle shipsg to enthrone love, not bateg to insure peace, not war. Our mission is to strike the chains from the ankles of war- burdened humanity. Our duty 'is to proclaim in the name of the Most High our faith in the power of justice as opposed to the force of arms. May it be said of us that we found the world burdened with militarism, but left it blessed with peaceg that we found liberty among the strong alone, but left it the birthright of the weakg that we found humanity a mass of struggling in- dividuals, but left it a united brotherhood. May it be said of us that we found peace purchased at the price of human suffering, but left it as free as airg that we found peace bruised and stained with militarism, but left it ruling the world through love and liberty. May it be said of us that we fulfilled our mission as a world powerg that we were brave enough and strong enough to lead the world into the path of universal peace.

I like your balance. It is a great thing to have the spirit, the clean, keen, wholesome outlook which is you1's. The manner in which you 'gcarry onv in your school life, in your home life and and in your social activities is a delight to your older friends, who are watching you. lt is splendid to see you boys, who take part in school athletics, go at it as you do. It augurs well for the manner in which you will take up life's duties 'in later years. You are keen to make good on the team, you play always to win, you play fair, putting your honor far above any momentary glamour of victory. You realize the power of ,team-work, you accept and absorb advice,-coaching. You realize that the one game is not the whole game,-that it is but an experience which will help you in other activities,-bigger things. What applies' to the athletes applies to you all. The spirit in w'htich you take up any of the present activities,-the daily routine of study and play, the school pro- grams of debate, oratory, etc., indicate the manner in which you will fill your place in the game of life. Whatever course you may follow you are now laying a foun- dation for your carecr, a career worth while to yourself and to others, the making of a life worth while to yourself and to others is in the last analysis the most satisfying and is the largest measure of real success. We older 'uns, watching you with interest, and I must in truth add, envy, feel the thrill of satisfaction and delight in the promise held forth in you youngsters of today. I FROM THE ALUMNI OF 1921-TO THE CLASS OF 1922 ITH greetings and with words of cheer, the class of 1921 welcomes you all into the ranks of the Alumni. Attending high school is indeed a continuous joy, but it is never fully realized at the time. As a means by which the students can express their appreciation and love for their school after they have graduated, the Alumni Association has been organized. We are confident that the spirit of the graduates of 1922 right and that you all will enjoy returning each year to meet old friends at the Alumni Association, and that you will take pleasure in holding discussions and planning there for the betterment of the school which you and all of us represent. The Class of 1922 and all those who have inspired the undertaking deserve espec- ial credit for presenting the first high school Annual to the public. It is evident that initiative, ingenuity, and energy are characteristic of every member of such a class. This annual should awaken memories of happy hours, of well-spent efforts to gain the best results, and above all, the stall' should feel that its labors have not been in vain, for the working together with one common aim, has drawn the class together by a close and strong bond which will long endure. Our wish for every High School student and teacher of the school year 1921- 1922 is that each may hnd success in every undertaking. The Class of 1921, ELVIRA L.

FOOTBALL THE football team of the Junior High deserves much credit for the work it has clone this year. Although we did not have a perfect string of victories, we had as perfect spirit as could be desired. Each member of the team worked in perfect harmony with the other members and with Coach Lowell Bird. The back' field, consisting of Mack, Bennett, Fait, and Brown was unusually strong for Junior High, and the line with Nebel at the pivot point was hard to beat. Much of the good work of the team is due to Mr. Bird who gave his' time every night and worked faithfully toward the development of a team which would not only know the game but which would play it with plenty of pep and Hght. Next year, we hope to furnish foot-ball material to the High School which will make it proud of its sophomore class. MARSIIALL NORSENG, '25. Page Sixty- Tivo Junior High Basketball Team JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL LTHOUGH this has not been an entirely successful year as far as shown by the scores, yet we feel that the showing made by the Junior High School team has been exceptionally good. While we lost some of the important games, the team went into each contest with hne spirit. and fought to the end. The boys certainly deserve credit for the pep and grit which they put into their games. Much of this credit belongs to their captain, Roman Fail, who, although not so tall and muscular as many of the others, yet showed as much knowledge of the game, and hghting ability as the best of them. He is a true sportsman and was always ready to take defeat without an alibi. The team played a clean fair game and played it until the last whistle blew, and wc feel that it has developed some good High School material. The line up was as follows: Forwards, Nebel and Faitg Center, Davidsong Guards, Bennett and K. Paceg Substitutes, O'Malley, Mack, and G. Pace. Donormr SMITH, 525.

This made the outlook for the nineteen twenty-one football season far from being as bright as usual. But in spite of this handicap, our tealn followed regular practice, our school pep and backing was fine, and we were able to give a good account of ourselves even though we played with strong Minnesota teams who were greatly superior to us in weight. Regular practice began the first week of school and several new candidates turned out for the squad. We also had seven letter men back from last year. The team was rather handicapped for nruch hard scrinrmagc practice, because we did not always have men enough for two teams. Nevertheless a very creditable team was turned out by Coach Crider, who must be complimented for his good work under' these adverse circumstances. RIVER FALLS 0 ST ILLWATER 19 Tire i921 season began with a rush when Stillwater came to River Falls bringing 22 men. It being the first game of the season for our boys, we were far from being in condition and met with rr defeat. The boys deserved a large amount of credit for the grit and pluck they showed. With only 12 men on the field it looked had for us, especially as we had only one week's practice. Matt Nelson was injured and the only sub we had was put in. With Matt out it left a big hole in the hack field. Tile final score was River Falls O, Stillwater I9. RIVER FALLS 0 RED WING 42 This was the only game of the season in which our opponents ran up a high score against us. lt was played on their field and it was not a very good one at best. We were rather handicapped during this game because two of our first team men, Dawson and Corson were unable to play. The lied Wing team was considerably heavier than ours. Red Wing made nearly all of her gains by forward passesg in fact, only two of her six touch- downs were made by line plunges. RIVER FALLS 55 We were fortunate enough to be offered a ELLSWORTH 0 game by the Ellsworth ineligibles. They were very confident because they had just beaten the Ellsworth conference team 25 to 0. Our team showed up very well for since the Red Wing game there had been some changes made in the lineup and some new plays had been added. The passes and trick plays worked so well that many long gains were made. Wtith for our opponents to break thru the line. Speed Rielrardsorfs passing Captain Parr and Dawson deserve a great deal gains. The final score was 55 to 0. at center it was impossible took them off their feet. of credit for it was by them that we made our long Ed. Follansbee playing We very much regret that we had no chance to compete for the championship, for Hudson won it with a team that defeated Ellsworth by a small score onlyg the ineligtible team defeated the Ellsworth conference team 25 to 0 and our learn beat the ineligible team 55 to 0. RIVER FALLS 0 HASTINGS 10 Our last game of the season was played at Hastings, and the team had a great many difficul- ties with which to contend. Our lineup was weaker than it had been at any time during the sea- son. Parr, our captain and our fastest man was not able to play because he had wrenched his knee. The line also was considerably lighter than usual, The game proved to be a close one and the absence of Parr was keenly felt by the players. The hrst half consisted of printing mainly, neither slide being able to hold the ball for any length of time. By a series of line plunges Hastings finally succeeded in making a touchdown and also kicked goal, making them a score of seven. ln the last quarter Hastings managed to make a lucky drop kick and the ffinal result was Hastings 10. and River Falls 0.

A can BASKETBALL f Buskvtball k BASKET BALL 1922 ASKl2'l'IiAl,l, practice began immediately after Christmas, there were a large number of candi- dates. and the season proved a real success. The learn was slow in reaching its stride, but once started. it quickly developed under the excellent coaching of Mr. Crider. Even with our late start we were able to win second place in the district tournament-being defeated by New llielnnond only. At the stale tournament. New llichmond was able to win over most of her 'opponents by a larger majority than she had defeated us. and she lost first place to Fond du Lac by but three points. This. with the fact that most of our men will be back, makes our outlook for a winning lt-am next year very encouraging. Much of this seasoifs success was due to the excellent spirit of the student body who stood bark ol' the team by turning out strong at the games and giving the players the most loyal support. River Falls 27-Prescott 9. The season began very favorably for us when we played Prescott on January 27. The game was a walkaway lor our team. as it was not until the last twenty minutes of play that Prescott succeeded in making a held basket. They then scored four points. Most of our points were made by Richardson. lfollansbce. and Parr. Dopkins played a line game of guard. River Falls I4-Spring Valley 15. On- February 3 our tcam lost to Spring Valley by the close score of 14 to l5. Dawson opened the scoring with a field goal and Spring Valley came back with three long baskets from thc middle of the floor. Luck seemed to favor Spring Valley in her long shots as nearly all of her scoring was made from long distances. The first half ended with the score ll to 5 in favor of Spring Valley. Our team came back much stronger in the second half. Two field baskets by llichardson and one by Follansbec cvcned things up. The game was nip and tuck until the very end when Spring Valley took a lead of one point by a long field basket. River Falls I6-Hammoml 27. On February l0 we went to Hammond. The trip was made in sleighs and many of the students accompanied thc team. The llammontl team was too much for our men on their small floor. llichardson was unable to play and Follansbee took his place at center. Driscoll and Dawson were our score gutters. while Parr played a fast floor game. . River Falls 27-HflHZ'H10IlIl 20. Our second game with Hammond was played at home. The game was fast and hard fought front start to finish. We scored the first goal in the hrst minute of play. but the next few points were made by llammond. At the end of the half the score was a tie. ln the last half our team greatly outplaycd their rivals. Hammond could not get the ball by our guards. while our boys were able to work down to the baskets. Both teams were very successful with their free throws. We made seven more points in the last half than Hammond. River Falls 21-Hllrlson. 22. The game with Hudson was undoubtedly the, most evenly matched and the most thrilling one ol the season. School was dismissed in the afternoon, so the students could go with our boys. The locals rushed lludson off their feet at the start, but with much luck the Hudson players gradunllv increased their score. so that when the half ended it was tied at eight points. In the last half, points by one side were quickly followed by points by the other, until the last two minutes of play. when Hudson made a long field basket. The Falls followed with a free throw. This still left Hudson one point in the lead. This lead they kept during the remaining few seconds ol play. The River Falls rooters certainly supported their team at this game. River Falls 41-Prescott 20. Our second game with Prescott was played at home, and as the score shows. it was an easy victory for our team. Prescott was very unsuccessful with her long shots and was unable to work the ball past our guards. Our subs showed up well when given a chance to play in the first half. The hrst team men were put back the last half. and added twenty'one points to tl1e twenty already won. Prescott, also. came back stronger in the second half, and increased her score from eight to twenty points. Pngr' Suuz'nly40nr 1 THE SEVENTH ANNUAL BASKET BALL TOURNAMENT HIS was held in the Normal gymnasium March 15, 16, and 17, and has been pronounced by many the best tournament ever.

Elmwood drew New Richmoridg River Falls, Prescottg Clayton, Cumherlandg St. Croix Falls, Ellsworth. New Richmond and Cumberland both came here with clean slates, each having won twelve straight games, and these teams were therefore picked for winners. WEDNESDAY P. M., MARCH 15. New Richmond 28-Elmwood 12. The first game of the tournament was between New Richmond and Elmwood. The fighting Irishmenf' as they call themselves, had a wonderful team. River Falls 27-Prescott 8. River Falls had twice beaten Prescott earlier in the season and so went into this game with confidence. She started in scoring at once and when the final whistle blew had rung up 27 points to Prescottis 3. Driscoll was the individual star on the offense securing five baskets. Gibson showed up exceptionally well on the defense. WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 1.5. Clayton. 17-Crlmiberllmd 19.

The best game of the tournament was staged by River Falls and Cumberland. Thursday evening. We had a grudge to settle with Cumberland, and they were determined to keep an unbroken record. Five minutes from the end found us leading by 6 points-19 to 13. They took a sudden spurt, however, aIId the final gun found the score tied 22 to 22. ln the extra five: minute period, necessary to off the tie, Captain Richardson Zlllll Driscoll won the hearts of all our rooters by making tlIe scores which saved the game. Richardson caged three free throws. and Driscoll a field basket. We shall always remember Richardson by his accurate frec throwing, Gibson for his great guarding, McKinnon and Follansbee for their fast floor work and Driscoll for his shooting as lIe made 7 field goals in this game. It was at wonderful game. FRIDAY P. M., MARCH 17. Elmzooozl 28-Clayton. 11. Elmwood struck their stride for the first time Friday afternoon. Gardiner scored 24- of Elmwood's 28 points.

Because of winning two first contests, we played New Richmond the last game of the tournament for first place. We knew that New Richmond had a superior team and we exp:-cted to lose.

Page Sexenty-Two W ll exft - X . , 1 T, ' 1' fy' 'S' ,- - A Tttnon of joy went through the heart of every High School student when Driscolls name was read as forward 011 the all- tournament team. This was not alone because of the honor Paddy had brought to his school, but because Paddy is an all around likable fellow, a good student, and a good friend, as well as a swift heady man on the basketball Held. Driscoll was second in the tournament in number of points made, and was a big factor in placing our team in second place. No om: in the tournament more richly deserved the honors won there, than did Gihbie.'l A quick, strong, nervy, fearless player A lighter from the first whistle to thc linal pistol. Gibbie was ever there when most, needed. Wasn't it fun to see some one try' to take the hall from hint? This is Cibson's hrst year on out team, but he has certainly made good. Gibson is the type of athlete wc are proud to own. A faith- lul, dependable student, reliable and honorable in all things. A character of worth, but quiet and modest withal. Cibbie will do the work, but his friends will have to do the talking. Fon Two Ytattlts, Follansbee has been quite the hero athlete of the High School. Ed is perhaps the heaviest man on the basket ball team, hut that doesn't keep him from being one of the quickest. The conlidenee of our students in his athletic powers was proven hy the sighs of relief and the cheers of welcome which greeted him when he arrived to take his place in the Cumberland game. The townspeople, also, have the same confidence in him, and feel he is a big man on our team. The fact that Ed has been chosen for two consecutive semesters as president of his class proves that he is not popular as an athlete alone, but as a friend and leader in the school. llllitllltlll At.wA'rs Quttrt' and unassuming, there are few in our school who have more influence with the student body than Speed.l' Richardson is a big level-headed six-footer, whose conscientious work in his studies disprovcs tlte fact that an athlete is all brawn and no brains. , As a player, Speed is cool, steady, dependable, and a fighter to the finish. Always retiring and modest in his manner, he is most popular with teachers as well as with the student body, and with the team which he has led through a successful season.

Undefeatecl in entire state contest. 'T IS seldom that a school has the honor of such decided victories as have been won by both our allirmative and our negative teams in debate this year, Never has a school been more proud than is our school of these two teams. The state contest started with eighty-one teams in the race and by the elimination of the losers at each debate, it reached the finals April 15th between the three winning tcains-Apple ton, Brilliou, and River Falls. Every debate in the series necessary to decide the contest was won by our teams-not on percentages, but by the vote of the judges. The question Was: Resolved, That disarmament to the status, of an adequate police force. within a period of ten years, is practicable. The first debate was held February twenty-seventh-the allirmallive here against New Rich- mond, and the negative at Ellsworth against Ellsworth. The decisions botlt in our lavor allowed us to continue in the race for honors. Cumberland being forced to drop out on account of a flu epidemic. we contested with Lady- smith. both here and there, on lVlarch tenth. Again both teams were victorious. The hardest contest of the four was that of our negative team against Portage there. and of our affirmative team here with Augusta. Both of the opposing teams were clear. keen thinkers and fluent speakers, and it took the utmost ellorts of our people to vanquish these two teams, It was done only by the rebuttals. Tlte last debate which decided the state championship was our aflirmative team against Apple- ton there and our negative team here against Brillion. - Wittfred Bird has taken part in seven inter-school debates.

It has been the work of this organization to take charge ol' the sale of tickets to the various games, to provide for the entertainment of visiting teams and in fuel, to he always back of our boys in their athletics. Early it1 January of this year the Athletic Association put on a girl's popularity contest. This was for the purpose of advertising and for the raising ol' money for athletics. A vote was taken in the High School in order to discover the ten girls most popular with the student body. Then two boys were selected as campaign managers for each ol' these ten girls. The sale of every season ticket counted one thousand votes. The contest ran one week and was a light from start to Enish. It finally resolved itself into a contest of classes. The Sophomores were determined to elect their candidate. and the upper class men were as equally determined that their nominee sltoultl win. When the final count was made it was found that Bessy Moe. a Senior, was in the lead. The boys who successfully piloted thc winner's campaign were Orford Prisk and Carroll Brown. V -,aa-41.

Land. water. and sky are full of elemental music of many degrees of intensity. It is cultural background and intellectual training that make the difference in the appreciation of all music. A ' The potency ol' music has been acknowledged in all ages by all races. There is only one kind of music and that is good music. When music can be called bad, it ceases to be music, and br-coin:-s simply rhytlnnic noise. ' 'l'o the average European. even of the lowest class. music is a necessity-it is an expression of his inner lift-. and a means of communication with the outer world. but Americans have too long regrarded music as something apart from their daily lives. To them it has not been a vital part of their 1-xist,ence-but an incident-an amusement. A noted educator has said: ln the broadest educational sense. no other study in our public st-hool is more valuable than music. Public school music often leads to the discovery of real talent. and to the majority who have little or no talent, the systematic study of music opens up it vista ol' appreciation and pleasure unknown to the musically ignorant. . llntil a few years ago. music in the liiver Falls school was a neglected subject. but in the fall oi 1920. Miss Cecelia Wind. a violinist of much ability. was employed to teach both vocal and violin music. 'l'he lirst violin class was very small. but the results attained by these few amused such a vital interest in thc work that two more classes were soon necessary. This year. Miss xVlllll'S entire time and attention has been taken up by the violin classes. and filiss llitchcock has taken over thc chorus and glee clubs. ' Last spring the girls' and boys' glee clubs put on an operetta 'LPauline. which was a decided success. The glee clubs are now preparing an operetta The Pennant, which will be given April l0. Miss llitcheoek has unusual talent. being a skilled pianist. and with her faculty of winning a hearty response from her students is sure of giving the public an entertainment of which we shall be proud. 'l'ho orchestra under direction ol Miss Wind is worthy of especial commendation. W'ith absolutely new material. and with but little public interest in such an undertaking, Miss Vlfind has been able to build up an amateur orchestra which is a credit to the schools. With this impetus in the study of music. and the new interest aroused in it. we hope for steady progress in the one universal language which may be understood and enjoyed by all nations.

The stenographcr and bookkeeper is needed everywliere. and our schools must be prepared to face this necessity. The two words that stand out distinctly in the business- world arc-Accuracy and Efficiency. Alter attaining these. one is qualified to lill practically any position, with assurance of satisfaction to his employer. At the present time great advancements are being made in educational opportunities along the eotninercial line. Business colleges are being founded where short courses are offered. Many of our public schools are establishing two-year business courses and thus enabling a -large number of boys and girls to take advantage of these opportunities of commercial training. This year. the River Falls High School has an enrollment of 138 pupils. of which 40. or approximately 34- per cent. are tal-:ing up commercial work. At present. the Gregg System of Shorthand is taught in this department. The first year is largely devoted to the learning of the principles and wordsigns-dictation at the rate of sixty to one hundred words per minute. Olliee training. legal papers and olhce appliances are also studied. ln our typewriting department we have fourteen machines which are in use at all periods of the day. The beginners must at first learn to master the keyboard. After this is accomplished. accuracy tests are given. this being the first essential in typewriting. The second year is largely devoted to the increase of speed. Every month Underwood tests are given and students writing. thirty or more words per minute are rewarded with a certificateg forty or more words per minute wins a bronze incdalg a bronze bar is added for each additional ten words. The first semester. this year. several eertiiicates were awarded. The work in typewriting consists largely of exercises and letter writing. The students also take turns acting as private steuographer in the office of the principal. writing his business letters and doing practical ollice work. Among other commercial equipments the school has a mimeograph and mimeoscope. With the aid of these. the weekly sehool paper is printed and circular letters for the school and husia ness firms of the town are written. ln connection with shorthand and typewriting in the commercial course, one semester of com- mercial aritlnnetie. one year of bookkeeping and one semester of commercial law are required. Miss Kelley. in charge of this department. is conducting a night school in which short courses in shorthand and typewriting arc offered. The object of this is to make more proficient those who cannot attend day school. but who wish to do better work in their places of employment. The enrollment has to be limited on account of the small number of typewriters. The problem of each individual is given special consideration and such work is given as will prove beneficial to the work of the student. This night school was introduced for the first time this year as an experiment. but it has proven of so much benefit to the ambitious young workers ol River Falls. that it is safe to predict that it will become a permanent factor of our public school system. The following pupils are enrolled at present: Irene Bcastrorn. Virginia Meyer. Marie Beskar. liuniee I.iedn1an. Lila Williams. Edwin Johnson. James Parr, Leo McLaughlin. and Margaret Smith.

He may live without bookwwhat is knowledge but grieving? He may live without hope--what is hope but deceiving? He may live without love-what is passion but pining? But where is the man that can live without dining? Domestic Science has been offered in our I-ligh School for several years past, but two years ago an arrangement was made between the State Normal School and the City School whereby the work is now given by the Normal teachers in the Normal laboratory. This gives our students advantages otherwise 'impossible to the small high school. The Freshman course in cooking covers the care of the kitchen, the stove and its fuel, the principles of cookery and the values of the different foods. The Freshman girl learns how to best cook vegetables, cereals, eggs, meats, and other proteins. She plans and learns to properly prepare a well balanced nourishing breakfast at a reasonable cost, she studies the luncheon menu and learns to serve both of these meals correctly and daintily. The Sophomore year starts with the fall canning, preserving, pickling, jelly and conserve mak- ing. The oven, open kettle, and cold pack methods are tried out and compared. Alter this work is finished, an exhibit of the results las shown by the many jars of delicious fruitsi is held at the domestic science rooms. Later, the dinner menu is studied, and the student learns to plan, cook, and serve a formal dinner or banquet. This is made a practical problem by dinners served to their mothers by different groups of students. The course in sewingconsists of instruction in the use and alteration of the commercial pat- tern, the drafting of the more simple patterns and a study of textiles. I-lere the girl learns to choose suitable and durable materials for her own clothing. A study of the silhouette, and the designing of simple appropriate costumes is made, and the pupils have the practical work of making real usable home garments. Prge Eigh ly-Six f THE MANUAL TRAINING DEPARTMENT HE manual training department, as well as the domestic science department. has been oper- ated for the past two years in connection with the State Normal School. By this plan. it has been possible to give our students complete and finished courses with thc advantage of adequate equipment in large and convenient quarters. The course consists of carpentry, benehwork. blaeksmithing. lathework and mechanical draw- ing. The students in this department are under the direct supervision of Mr. Spriggs and Mr. Segerstroni of the Normal School. CAFETERIA OR a long time the need of a cafeteria has been felt. but it was not until last fall that one was opened. The intention was to supply one hot dish to the students from a distance who brought their lunches. However. the cafeteria became so popular, and there was such a demand for more dishes, that cocoa, sandwiches, and a simple dessert have been served together with Z1 hot dish. such as scalloped potatoes or chop suey. All the work has been done by the Domestic Science girls under the supervision of Miss Pedersen. Some old tables were lixed up by lVlr. Goddeug these were covered with oileloth by the Ctnnp Fire girls. The old Manual Training room has been used and very little of the equip- ment is new. The average price of a lunch is twelve cents. If a student cares to bring his own lunch, he may do so. supplementing it with one or more hot dishes from the cafeteria. The cafeteria has been self-supporting. The food has been sold as nearly at cost as possible without dividing the pennies, and the small profit used to buy new equipment, such as trays, dishes. and silverware. Much credit should be given Miss Pedersen for making the cafeteria a success. Due to her efforts, the students may now enjoy a warm meal rather than the hastily eaten cold lunch of former days.

The plot was an interesting one of college days. huill on the love of a hard working Senior for the charming daughter of a self-made business man whose wife aspired to marry her daughter to a title and to enter society. The operetta was full of amusing situations, pretty scenes, peppy dialogues. musical solos and catchy choruses. Catherine Chapman. with her simple unassuming charm and remarkably sweet voice. and Mathias Nelson, who has an excellent voice. and an unusually pleasing personality. made strong leads. Carroll Brown portrayed the typical English dude so well that the audience forgot Carroll and saw only Lord Wootlby Rich. Billie Parr as Levi Lender caused laughter and applause whenever he appeared. Added to his acting ability, Billie has a really good voice-strong and musical. Richard Smith. the freshman just from up country, was perfect in his make-up and acting. and his efforts to escape the widow, and his final capture by her. was one of the good comedy bits of the oneretta. Nina Colwell as the widow who would and did get a man was decidedly clever and showed real acting ability. Evelyn Holt was the mother who had social aspirations and she looked and acted the part to perfection. Lawrence Dawson as the father who loved vim and deeds hetter than titles. hut who was dominated by his wife was one of the good characters of the play. Lawrence has a deep. rich bass voice and his acting was fine. The parts of Miss Young and Miss Sweet. taken hy Shirley Sansburn and Marie lslaugh. were well executed. Ed Follansbec made a most excellent coach while Ronald Baker and Marvin Scott as friends of .lack took minor parts well. The choruses were remarkable for the clear musical tones and distinct cnunciation and showed the careful and efficient training given them by the director. Miss Dorothy Hitchcock. Miss Hitchcock is deserving ol great praise and appreciation from the pupils and friends of our High School. Page Eighty-lfiglit fi, f FOR 0LD UNION By l,lLLlAN Comma tFooxoi:o ox Ttuua lNCIlDl'IN'l'S IN THE Catsataa or Bo lilClVl1LLl'lN.l A'I'IIlCli Tlltlli had taken another step. September had arrived, but the last days of the pre- ceding month still intermingled with the first of the new. The oppressiveness of August was in the air. Gut on the football field. where half a dozen boys were marking out the gridiron, the heat seemed to be more intense than any place else. The air was almost stifling. and the sun. which was casting long shadows across the field. looked like a red ball of fire. Now and then a sickly breeze made a vain effort to stir tltc heavy air. - ln spite of the heat the boys never stopped in their work. Even though they were putting forth their best efforts. they were having a hard time to make the old field look as if a game of football could be played on it. The field was rough. and covered with parched grass which was worn bare in places from the baseball diamond of the spring. There were hard spiky bunches of grass over tho entire surface aml in one corner the land sloped sharply downward. At one end was a tangle of shrubs so close to the goal-post that many a time the ball had been lost in it. llere could be seen the nodding heads of goldenrods and a thick mass of sumacs which seemed to be bound in a single cluster with poison-ivy. Beyond this stretched open country. with here and there a lonely looking house which the inhabitants had hoped would some day be surrounded by others. The college buildings were a little to the south of this. They were built for use. not for beauty. as one could see at a glance. They were square substantial buildings. set one beside the other. with mathematical precision. The lawns were merely little patches of brown. seared grass burned by the fierce heat of the summer sun. The buildings were somewhat redeemed from their ugliness by great trees which cast a softer light upon them and furnished inviting looking shade. The boys had just finished their task when a couple of their fellowmen came out on the field. One was their captain who was carrying an old battered football which looked as if it had seen years of service. The other was Bob Hunt-the life and star of the team and the favorite in college. lloh was noted for his unselfishncss and for his humblcness in spite of the fact that he was the best football player in Kentucky. l'lello. Bob. said one of the boys. looking up. g' 'l.o. Red. You're all done marking. l seeg l guess we'll start right to work practicing. Uncle Charlie will be out in a few minutes. Uncle fiharlieu was their coach. This affectionate title showed the love with which he was regarded by all tltc boys. Come on, boys. Old linionis rep is at stake. Let's go. When llncle Charlie arrived every man was patiently going over and over thc different shifts and plays. lle called the boys around him. Well, boys. he began. you all know what we've got before us. ln two weeks a game with Kentucky State aml a week later a trip to Harvard. You think you've worked before. Say. boys. you don't know what work is! But wr-'ll do it. boys-we'll beat them for old Unions sake. Always remember. though. that it takes eleven men in every play. not one man. not two men. but eleven. Starting with tonight we will practice as we have never practiced before. With that every man trotted out on thc field to take his place. ready to fight with spirit and vim to the last drop of strength in him. So it went clay after day for two weeks. Every man was on the field practicing in the heat of the afternoon sun. never stopping until the stars were twinkling in the sky. The day of the Kentucky State game llnclc Charlie gave them a few more battle-tactics in the gymnasium. Sud- dcntly he stopped. his face strangely serious. l3oys. I know l've been a rough cuss in my day, but l believe in Cod and l tltink l-le looks after folks who are doing their best. I wish one of you boys would say a little prayer. There was a dead silence for a minute, and then one of the boys said: Let me pray. boys. and with halting words he prayed not for victory. but that no man might be hurt. badly enough to bc taken out of the game. and that every man might give his best for old Union. With awed faces and tear-filled eyes. the team went out on the field and played as they had never played before. It seemed to the boys that a power stronger than their own was with them that day. The week between thc Kentucky State game and the game with Harvard seemed shorter than any other week. Some of the boys felt nervous because they had never ridden on the train and had never been in a city. They did not know what they might encounter in a city the size of Cambridge. This name had always had the power to thrill them. and now when they knew and were really going there. they felt awed at thc thoughts of a game with Harvard. At last llle day came when they were to leave. All their suits had been washed and mended and new cleats put on their shoes in preparation of the one event of the season. The entire town was out to see them off. Page Eigli ly-Nine d o There were no rooters to accompany them because it was too expensive a trip. Through the entire journey the boys could do nothing but look and cxclaim at the wonders of the outside world. When they arrived, Uncle Charlie was the only one who could act naturally. The boys were nervous in the street cars and confused by the crowd. They spent the night in a hotel. the most luxuriant place they had ever seen. The next morning they arose early and after having a break- fast served in courses, another novelty, they went to look at the school buildings and campus. They were charmed by every new wonder they saw and when they went to see the gridiron, they were speechless. Bob was the first to find his tongue. Uncle Charlie, how can we play football down in that? he asked, pointing down the twenty- seven feet of cement slabs. into the depths of the great stadium. Boys, said Uncle Charlie, don't lose your grit now. It doesnit look that way when you're down in there. It is marked off just the same as the gridiron at home and is a sight smoother than ours. By this time Red, who had been using his eyes, found his tongue and said: What are all those little holes in the sides for? Those, said Uncle Charlie, are the tunnels where the people enter the stadium to watch the game. There are thirty such entrances to this one stadium. The boys all looked quite dubious as Uncle Charlie took them back to the hotel. for they must go to bed and rest. it was a beautiful day and every man was feeling his best. The game was to bc called at three o'clock that afternoon. As they were dressing they could hear the cheers coming from the stadium like the rumble of a cannon. ' t'Oh, Uncle Charlie! We can't do it! Vffe can't do it. l'm so scared, Uncle Charlie. We'll never do itlu burst in pitiful sobs from Max, the little big boy of the team--eighteen years old and a giant in stature. :Can't, cried Bob. If only the holes where these shoes lace wouldn't wobble so. l'd show vou. HListen, sonnyf' returned Uncle Charlie, holding the sobbing boy close to him with steady comforting arms. You'll play to the last ditch. You'll give the last bit of strength. the last drop of blood in your body, and you'll smile, and you'll win for old Union -and he knelt to lace Bob's wobbly shoes. The Union team went on the field with grim determination on every face. They scattered in formation for signal practice, paying no attention to the tumult which raged around them. Amid a burst from the sixty thousand the Harvard eleven came. and whirled into line for a last rehearsal of their machine-like tactics. The minutes dragged by like hours while the ollicials con- sulted with the two captains in the center of the field. Then the two elevens ranged themselves across the smooth turf. There was a dead silence. A Harvard toe lifted thc ball far down toward the Union goal. It was Bob, the Union fullback. who waited to receive the ball. It bounded from his too eager arms. A Union back fell on it in time to save it from the clutches of a Harvard end. The two lines locked and heaved in the first scrimmage. Time and time again, they met, an invincible force against an immovable body. Both knew that they had found their equal. The first half was over with no score. Between halves, the Union team encouraged one another as brothers would. Uncle Charlie begged-he pleaded- For Union's sake, boys-for Union's sake, boys! They gave thanks for their ability to hold the Harvard team so far and asked for strength to do as well the next half. The boys trotted back out on the field dusty. tired. and bruised but hopeful. They wheeled into position. Again the fight was on. No gains the next quarter. The roar in the grandstand never ceased. The crowd was now almost equally divided in their support of the two teams. The plucky Union team had won the hearts of thousands of strangers. Was the last quarter to be the same as the others? The tide changed. The tired little quarterback gave the signal foraforward nassg the ball sailed into the arms of the waiting fullback who passed it to Davis. the half back. Davis was a faithful senior who in all his four years of honest work had never had the thrill of making a touchdown. He saw the ball dropping toward him. He went speeding down the- field. It seemed as though he could never catch it. Suddenly he seemed to hear the words i'For old Union. Stretching out his arms, he caught the hall and went plunging toward the Harvard goal. the whole team after him. None could equal him in speed: one final plunge, and he fell across the goal line with the ball hugged beneath him. The crowd gave one terrific yell and the game was over. Union ltad won. ln the dressing room Davis came to Bob. tears streaming down his grimy cheeks. Bob,,' he said. Why did you do it? Why didnit you make that touch-down? Every one expected you to do it, not mc? 'iNow, old boy, replied Bob, Cut itl Dry up! Wliy' did I do it? Say. old kid, this is your last game for Union. You've fought the big hght again and again only to give the ball to some other fellow and see him plunge across the line for the touch-down. but you had never known the thrill of going across with the old pigskin hugged to the heart of vou. and 'lt's for old Union. For old Unionl' ringing through your very soul. Wliy did I do it? Oh, boy! Page Ninety f HWHEN TRAINING COUNTEDV BY Manoatuzjt' Banner. llli following men of the second team need not report for final practice tonight-Kelley, Nlason. and Newton. The principul's deep voiee resounded through the assembly room of Denton High. where two hundred pupils were gathered awaiting the signal for dismissal. The silence that followed his announcement was deadeningg to Verne Newton it scented that no one moved, and that the stillness could never be broken. Need not report for final practice. The words rang in his ears. The pianist began to play. and the students filed out of the room. Many of them cast sympa- thetic glances at Verne. for they knew that it was his chief ambition to be able to take part in this last and hardest basketball game with Princeton High. Not every one was in sympathy with him, howeverg one tall. light-haired fellow had a look of exultalion on his face which was not noticed by most of the students. Kendall was, to everyones belit-if. the star player of the team, and his jealousy of Verne was a well known topic in the school. lah- disliked Verne for many things. but principally because Verne was a true sportsman, some- thing that Kendall was not. Verne went home with the most discouraged feeling that he had known for months. He had eountt-d so much on participating in this final struggle, and had trained as well as any of the other men. only to be left out al. the last minute! Oh. well, it wasn't any use. The great night came at last. The big gymnasium was filled with people, excited and doubtful as to the result of the game, for neither of the two teams had been defeated, and they were deadly rivals. Orange and Black. Denton's colors, were seen everywhere, but there was also a good mixture of red and white, the colors of the visiting school. Verne sat in the front row of seats in the balcony. He wasu't going to stay home and miss the game. even if he eouldn't play. But as he watched the crowd pour into the gym and heard the songs and yells, a feeling came over him that his chance was coming soon, and he felt pre- pared for it. The teams ran out on the Hoor for practice. each one greeted by deafening cheers. Verne watched both teams closely. and he came to the conclusion that they were almost equally matched. What if Denton shouldn't win? Would the school ever recover front the shame of the defeat? Oh, they eouldn't lose! The rcferee's whistle blew, and the players sprang into their places. Now would come the real test of courage and training. Verne watched the players closely the first few minutes, for the ball often got dangerously near l'rineeton's basket. Kendall was playing his best, but somehow his manner lacked the snap and dash that had characterized his playing in the preceding games. Verne alone knew the reason. but he would never have told. Ten minutes went by without either team getting a basket. Kendall was tired out but was unwilling to admit it. The coach saw him and said to himself that if the star player didn't show up better soon. he would have to put in Ames, one of the subs. The rest of the half was a hard fought struggle, but Princeton managed to get two baskets. This only put more fight into the home team. The ball passed from one end of the gym to the other, but the guards were always on the watch and it never reached the baskets. The first half ended with a score of 4 to 0, in Princeton's favor. Verne was getting desperate. for he saw that Kendall was tired out, and he felt sure that the other two subs were not capable of filling Kcndall's position as forward. He knew that the coach was aware of this, and he had a vague hope that he would get a chance to play. .lust then the coach himself stepped out of the side door onto the gym fioor and looked up at the crowd. I-lis eyes immediately met Verne's which looked at him half pleadingly, half defiantly. The coach. acting upon a sudden impulse. beckoned to him, and Verne. hoping against hope that his chance had come. pushed through the excited crowd and ran down the stairs to the dressing rooms. Cot on your suit and be ready to play. was the coaclfs curt command as he saw Verne. Kendall isn't fit to go in again. I know what's the matter with him now. Verne needed no second bidding. He was ready to go out with the other players for practice when the ten minutes rest was up. The crowd a little disappointed when they saw that Kendall was not in the line-up. lle was their favorite because of his dashing plays and reckless daring. Verne knew this, and he saw that besides overcoming the excitement of playing against such a team as Princeton. he must gain the eonhdence of the rooters. He felt that he could not play his best without them hack of him. Page Ninelyf0nc EEj Again the whistle blew. The men were soon in their places and the gante continued. The coach had told Verne that he could not play until the other two subs were tired ont, so ht- sat on the sidelines beside the coach. watching every move the men made. The game was as exciting now as it had been in the first half. lint Ames. the new forward. was not lit for the position. Again and again the guards passed the ball into his hands. hut it seemed as if he could not locate the basket. After seven minutes of play the coach substituted Browne, the other sub. in Ames' place, but his game was no better. The Princeton men put in three baskets during the short time Browne was on the floor and the coach saw that tht-rw was nothing left to do but let Verne play. The game was stopped. and the coach gave Verne a few swift parting instructions. and st-nt him in in Browne's place. The whistle blew. Verne was ready. Now the test was to come. Whether his training and skill would prove strong enough to meet the strain ln- would soon know. He must prove that the coach's faith in him was not misplaced and eonvincc that crowd that he could play basketball. The guards passed the ball into his hands. and. dodging his own guard. he threw for the basket. But the ball only hit the bounding hoard and his first chance was gone. Verneis heart grew faint. Was he to be a failure. and only seven more minutes to play! just then someone leaned over the railing of the balcony and shouted: , S'Say. there. Newton. what's the matter with you? Are you scared? Aha. we know you. So that's what they thought of him. Well. he'd soon show them where they were mistake-n. Scared! He got the ball into his own hands at last. and shot for the basket. Did it go in? lr must have. for the spectators were apparently going wild. Well. he hoped that impudent fellow was satisfied. The game went on, sharper than ever. Finally the game was 8 to 10 in I'rineeton's favor. and one minute left to play. Verne was weary. but his spirits were as high as ever. llc must get at least one more basket. two if possible. He was now almost under the basket and he threw for it again and again. lt was useless. Every time he received the ball three men were watching him. and he could not dodge them. Then for a second a man was off his guard. Verne tltrew the ball-it went in! The final whistle blew and Verne Newton had saved Denton High from utter defeat. When Verne went off the floor. he was praised and cheered by many friends hut he counted as the highest praise these few words which the coach spoke to him: You played a good game, Newton. As l've said before. itis the training that finally rooms. The Code of a Good Sport l. Thou shalt not quit. 2. Thou shalt not alibi. 3. Thou shalt not gloat over Winning. 4.

Two score and two years ago. our school board brought forth in this city. a new school house conceived in pride, and dedicated to the supposition that all students were created equal. Now wc are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether these students. or any other students so conceited and irresponsible, can long endure. We are met in the great as- sembly hall of that school. We have come to dedicate a portion of that hall as a final studying place for those who here will prob- ably have to give their lives that this spot may be kept sacred to study. It is alto- gether fitting and proper that we should do this. 'iBut in a larger sense. we cannot dedicate -we cannot consccrate-but we can rule this study hall. The brave faculty, past and pres- ent. who struggled here, have attempted to consecrate it lar above the poor students' power to add or detract. The world will little note or long remember what the undcrclass- men say here. but it can never forget what the Seniors did here. Prge all is for us, the upperclassmen, rather to be dedicated hcrc lo the unfinished work which the teuchcrs who fought herc have thus lar so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us. that from these unhonorcd tencli- ers wc take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of their crahhiness, that we hereby highly resolve that these teachers shall not have policed in vaing that this school, under Mason. shall have a new birth of quictnessg and that study ol' the students, by the students. lor the students, shall not perish from our assembly hallf' REVIEW! REVIEW! REVIEW! Have you ever had your tcachcr say llunk '? 'Tis a pitiful sound to hear. It seems to lill your soul kerplunk With a strange and speechless fear. 'Tis thc voice of the teacller who cries Outsidc! In class you should never sleep. And many and n1auy's the time I'vm- cried To the teacher llunking us lar and wide. Both the Sophs and Seniors deep: What do you want, 0 cruel one. What have I not yet done? And the teacher would say in her cruel wav: Review! Review! Review! My principal told mc long ago lWl1en I was a little tad! That when the teachers began failing us so, The pupils had been had: And when. with a heart as heavy as lead, To the principal I had been sent lVith the zeros piled up round my head I'd think ol' what they all had said And wonder what each teacher meant. And. How can I help it? l'd ask Of the principal always true, And then he would say, in his tnuaniugzlul way hlleviewi Review! Review! That this is true I must allow- You'll not believe it, though! Yes. though I always study now. It was not always so. And if you doubt what things I say. Suppose you make the lestq Suppose. when you'vc llunkr-d some day And to the principal are sent away From the smart ones. and the rest- Suppose you ask, lWhat shall I do?
