TAHOMA I3 Q iii, ,Q li. 1 ,ixiiiw The Knight of the lVlarsh RUTH WAHLBERG 'I6 I ,K I. i WILIGHT shadows were stealing over the ridge, but far out on the marsh lffmlf the yellow fields still caught and held the sunlight. Soon dusk would shroud alike the marsh and hill, a silvery crescent moon would glide from the horizon, and the stars, one by one, would come peeping out from the depths of the sky. Now only the hoarse croaking of the frogs and the occasional twitter of a sleepy bird broke the stillness. A little form huddled on a stump near the edge of the ridge and listened intently, straining every nerve, for the thud of a horse's hoofs on the wind- ing road below. The frogs suddenly ceased their raucous discord, and nearer and nearer, in rich, vibrant tones, came the words: Oli sliladows iliai lengthening steal, Over the plain and the hill, Oh night-eyes ilial wilness my flight, Guide this lone numd'rer still. The boy waited until the powerful black horse had ascended the hill, then climbed to his feet on the stump, raised his arms and was swung up in front of the rider. Well, lad, and how is it with you the night? Any big stones in the pathway that a little knight couldn't lift? The man smiled down into the tremulous little face, and grasped the two fluttering little hands in his own hard, horny ones. It's Brindle, sir. All the other cows are home, but I can't find Brindle. And Pap Jawn'll scold me if I don't bring her. I-le's awful mad. Pap jawn is. The Big Knight smiled reassuringly but his keen blue eyes grew keener, and his arms tightened about the slen- der little Hgure. You ought to have a bell for Brindle, ladg 'twould be easy to find her then. Pap jawn says he won't put no bells on his cows, with all his fences needin' to be fixed and nothin' to fix 'em with. The Big Knight said nothing, but his face was grave as he turned into his own cabin yard, and without dis- mounting, took a lantern from a shelf on the wall and lighted it. We'll find Brindle, and then come back for some supper before we go I4 THE TAHOMA over to see Pap John, he said, and at the assurance and lack of fear in his voice, the Little Knight gave him- self up to the pleasure of his ride with the Big Knight. They were a strange pair, these two, who believed so implicitly in the present existence of brave knights and fair ladies, and of dainty fairies who danced by moonlight and performed miracles of beauty and goodness. And now, as they rode thru the dark wood- land trails, whistling and calling for the straying Brindle, the man told his little comrade that some day the Master Knight would open Pap Jawnfs heart, and the fairies, with their laughter and tears, would soften it and let in the sunshine. And will he love send me to school just like I was real kin? The Little Knight's voice was eager, and the glow in his big blue eyes made the muscles of the Big Knight's throat suddenly contract as his arms held the child more closely. He was spared the necessity of a reply by the sight of Brindle's huge bulk in the trail, and the homeward ride was taken in silence, the Little Knight resolving to be less frightened at Pap John's blustering ways, the Big Knight wondering if work was the only motive in the adoption of the little waif, It was late when they finally arrived at Pap John's cabin, -and the moon had disappeared behind the bank ,of clouds that now hid the stars. The frog chorus was momentarily hushed. and the hoot of an owl in the pine trees sent a nervous tremor thru the lad. Pap John himself opened the door, holding a smoking lamp high above his head. His grim features relaxed somewhat at the sight of them, but the acidity of his temper was in no whit lessened. Well, so ye're back ag'in, air ye, after 'moonin' round half the night! me then, and An' me settin' here near worrit to death an' not knowin' whar ye wuz. Better hump yeself off to bed now, so's ye kin git up in the mornin'. I wonder which you were most concerned over-the lad or Brindlef' mused the Big Knight, as the farmer kicked the door to after the boy's de- parture. John Wilbur,,' the Big Knight said, eyeing the other sternly as he turned from the door, whatever possessed you to adopt that boy? Why, I just thot I'd like some- one around to talk to, was the evasive reply. Yes, you thot you'd like some one to brow-beat and bully! If that was your only reason for taking him, you'll give him up mighty soon. l'le'd be better off in an orphan asylum- at least he'd have a chance at the start of an education. From now on, you're going to see that the lad does not have to roam around after stray cows half the night, and what's more, you're going to send him to school. If you don't l'm going to see that measures are taken that will give him the chance to have the things other boys take for granted. The Big Knight strode to the door in a manner that left the cowering farmer no doubt as the truth of his statements. as as as as -is as as af- The rain-washed earth gleamed green and gold in the glow of the rising sung the hazy blue mountains beyond the marsh were tinged with a delicate rose light, sweet and clear the feathered choristers of the wood car- olled their morning' song, and the soft, cool air, was scented with pine and misty violets. U The Little Knight stood on his stump and watched 'a black horse galloping down the road, the thud of hoofs growing more and more faint. The Big Knight turned in the saddle and waved to the lonely figure, and Tl-IE. TAI-IOMA I5 soon was lost to view. The jingling of a bell caused the lad to turn, and he met the soft gentle gaze of Brin- dle's eyes. Jumping down, he grasped her two horns and rested his head against the star between her eyes. Brindle was of an affectionate as well as a roving disposition, and remained passive until a voice, less gruff than usual, called to the Little lknight to hurry lest he he late to school the first day. The Master Knight did hear me, and sent his fairies, and I was afraid he wouldn't, and the Little Knight smiled and his heart was full of sun- light as Brindle's new bell tinkled before him up the road. 50-'. r l' Xi M' KT '! , , gr ,' ' - N- J X-X ,- lt: E - Q.. -- A A , ,f ' - of . ,jg 1 :Z i, I 'I ' f- ' 4 yo -q:- . . 5 L, , ry it 3-f I .

The turbulent ocean thundered on the bar, breaking white from shore to shore, and within, surf foamed about the cliffs below the North Cove Light. just outside the danger line a little fishing schooner pitched and tossed with the swell. The spirit of that which is sinister hung over the weather- beaten hull and tattered sails of the old steamer, Willapa. Its useful- ness as a freight steamer over,-con- demned, it hadgcome into the hands of Captain James Bantley, and now, as a sailing craft, was engaged in the lishing industry and-other things. Captain Bantley, iron-jawed, stern eyed, reticent, swept the foaming bar and the bay beyond with an appraising glance. Two weeks had they been out from Cape Flattery, and food was getting low. To enter the har- chance of detection bor now meant a -to wait for the protecting dark was impossible in the another half hour bar and seek the sea, there to wait who could say rising storm. ln he must leave the safety of the open another day. Yet what another day might bring? If he entered now, night would have fallen anyway before he should reach Stony Point, four miles within the harbor. Danger lay in either course he chose, so why not end the suspense and enter at once? A life of large risk and large re- ward was that of Captain Bantley- the boldest of those ostensible fisher- men of the early eighties, who made fortunes on their trips to the halibut banks off Cape Flattery. Opium, stored in the hold, augmented their earnings and was easily disposed of if the United States revenue cutter appeared. More profitable, though, was the smuggling of Chinese. To be brought from the coast of British Columbia and landed at Stony Point, that barren stretch of beach on Shoal- Water Bay, whence he could escape to and become lost in the near-by Chinese settlement, many a China- man paid from three hundred to live hundred dollars. On this trip Captain Bantley was carrying seven Chinese in the hold, and few halibut and rock cod above as a blind-and Stony Point was almost in sight. Twilight deepened as the old Wil- lapa fought its way in over the bar, and the captain was beginning to wonder why he had seen any ele- ment of danger in entering, why he had hesitated. Could it be that he, James Bantley, was beginning to lose his grip? The mate, slightly agitated, broke in upon his reveries. An unfamiliar light had been seen near the shore line. The captain's keen eyes, searching the place designated, needed no glass to confirm his fears. Only too well did he know that boat, its long white hull, its two masts and one smoke stack. The revenue cutter was put- ting out from the sheltering cove, where it had lain in wait, to run them down. One side of the Willapa's deck was hidden from the government boat, but it would not be for long. The THE T cutter would swing in behind them. Time was short. It was for such emergencies as this that the fishing schooner's ballast was of sandbags, and these plentiful in number. On that hidden side of the deck the crew worked fast and with great care, for the tides must carry to the shore no trace of what they did. The revenue cutter drew along- side and the government official, a quick, efficient looking young man, came aboard. l-le looked long at AI-IOMA I7 the catch of halibut and cod, at the few scattered handfuls of rice in the hold, and longer at the inscrutable face of Captain Bantley. Then he left the boat in silence and the revenue cutter drew away. The old Willapa, with the wind whistling in the tattered rigging, fought its way thru the blackening waves on up the bay toward the settlement at the mouth of the river. There was no need to stop at Stony Point now. sv X .f A Z! 14' V l V i Till , 1 - r c 2- :iii l '.-9,2 -5 nzf - -Y 4 W X-if , ,IJ S .- 'LX -- -Z - ,,.

FORSYTHE 'I6 From Aldrich's AHAHO, loving her vainly, Qlksil silently grieved as he watched her. Like a great hulking shadow he stood without the door of her Wigwam. Ever he waited for a call that she needed him. But Miantowona, bending over the dead form of her father, Chief of the I-lurons, only moaned in her an- guish. In the village without the mourners wailed the Death Dirge. Great Spirit! You took my brave- hearted Wawah in the hunt, she moaned. My father is dead. Oh why not take lVliantowona? Gray twilight was fast fading into the blackness of night. Miantowona knelt and softly closed the sad eye- lidsg swiftly she fastened the deer-skin over his shoulders: then laid beside him ash-bowl and arrows that he might enter the happy-hunting grounds at the singing of the Death Dirge. Sad is the loon's cry heard in the twilightg sad is the night wind, moan- ing and moaning: sadder this wail of Miantowona. Farewell, Oh Father, Oh Son of the Forest Thou goest to the home where great Spirits dwell, To the hunting grounds, the land of the hunter. Oh Father, oh Son of the Forest-! s 'Mianiowona Higher and keener it had grown, but when she came to the final- Farewell-she paused, her body tense with the effort of listening. Suddenly startling the silence, startling the mourners came the ominous shrill of the loon's cry. Twanda has entered the Hunting Grounds! the mourners cried. But Miantowona, now ruddy as sunrise, her eyes unseeing, continued to like unto departed Waw- of his reed-flute came to melody thru the woods. stole from the mourners listen.

Once he paused and lis- tened. Then he sped forward more fleet than ever toward the brink of the bright lake. Breathless he reached it, eagerly he grasped the trailing robe of the maiden. When lo! out from his grasp she was wafted and before him was only a circle swiftly expand- ing. But as he watched up from the center slowly, superbly, rose a pure- white lily. Slowly and sadly Nahaho bowed in the rushes, murmuring tenderly Miam- ,towona! Soft as the dew falls down thru the midnight, cleaving the star- light, echoes repeated, lVliantowona!

Finally the howls became so vociferous that it was impossible to ignore them any longer, so she picked the child up and, cuddling her in her arms, asked the cause. For a while the answer was unintelligible because of the accompanying sobs, but even- tually she made out: That M-Marion Stole, d-d- do you know wh-what she said t-to me? She s-said let's go out on y-your f-flirting porch. With great effort Peggy stifled the laughter which rose to her lips, and, tho her lips were sympathetic as she soothed her small sister, her lips turned upward at the corners. And I said it W-wasnit a Hirt- ing p-porch at all, continued the child: but she said, well, thatis what my sister calls it, anyway. The laughter was gone from Peg- gy's eyes and in its place was an expression of scorn. Poor little petty, jealous cat, she mused: then aloud, Who did her sister say it to, dear? To Ronald Rhodes. Anger blazed in Peg's eyes-that was different. Mildred must be jeal- ous! She thinks she can take him away, does she-she even stoops to ridicule me to him. She shan't have him-she shan't!,' For a long time Peggy sat by the fire and planned. The next morning the Preston house- hold wore an air of great industry. Peggy in cap and apron was directing E the placing of many articles of com fort and decoration on the big side porch. Yes, Ann, just that couch at the end, crosswise, with the green covering on it and that small table beside itg now those magazines and the fern on the table, no, that Oriental goes in front of the armchair, cornerwise-and the chair wants to face the bay. We'll put this swing on the other end-so. Helen, clear, run up and get the green pillow from my armchair, please. Put the wicker footstool in front of the wicker chair, and farther out-there. Hello, Bud, help me with this table will you pleaseg thanks. Doesn't it look cool and inviting, mother? Helen Preston! You take your sticky fingers from the table this min- ute! There-don't cry, I didn't mean to be crossf, Then she stood back and surveyed the result. Mm, flirting porch? Well, may- be. And so, chuckling confidently, she went upstairs. Meanwhile, Mildred Stole, crouch- ed on the floor of her room, in the house next door, with the curtain be- fore her face for concealment, and viewed the proceedings and speculated. What under the sun is she doing? Must be having a party-still, she wouldn't put magazines and footstools out for a party, nor those rookwood book ends. Gracious Heavens-here she comes all dolled up in her green voile dress-must be a party! No, it can't be-she wouldn't be sitting down to read if it was. I can't imagine what- Peggy, glancing up from her maga- zines, spied the brown head behind the 20 THE TAHOMA curtain and grinned at her reflection in the door glass. There she is up there spying on me -l hope she sits there all afternoon -I hope she cries her eyes out-I hope she hates me,H fiercelyg and then in a pleasant voice: Hello, Ted, yes, isnlt it lovely, kind of hot in the sun, tho, isn't it? Come in and I'll have Ann bring you some lime freeze. She smiled invitingly. The porch did look cool. Peg did look charming in the green dressy and lime freeze was his favorite ice. So Ted came, and stayed. l-le was the first, and there were others, eight in all. Peggy played the ukelele and laughed and talked and gave each one, in turn, her flattering attention-and flirrt- ed just a little with each one. But Peggy was not satisfied. What were eight men you didn't like partic- ularly to one that you did like? About four o'clock, however, Ron- ald Rhodes came by. Hello, Rod, she called out, come in and let me give you something cool, won't you? Ronald, eying the eight young men occupying the porch, said: No, thanks, I'm in rather a hurry, and walked on past Peggy-up the steps of the house next door-and into it. Peggy was furious! Once more her eyes blazed-and once more she smiled scornfully-this was only the first day. For seven days she held her court. and for seven nights her porch, was occupied by many white-trousered young men. For seven days she fussed up and looked beautiful. For seven days she felt angry and acted charmingly, vivacious, captivating: but for seven days Ronald Rhodes passed by and up the steps of the house next door. On the morning of the eighth day her eyes were red when she came downstairs, and when her mother asked what was the matter she answered UNothing! Once more the Preston household wore an air of industry. Once more Peggy, in cap and apron, directed the placing of articles of comfort and decoration. Take the couch in and put it in the den, Bud: run up and take this green pillow back, Helen: help me with the table, Ann: yes, the small rug goes on the piano stool. When the porch was all clean save for the porch swing she smiled a crooked little thank you and, running up to her room. locked the door, and throwing herself on the bed, cried out her de- feat and shame. Two hours later, the signs of the storm removed by water and powder, she came clown- stairs. l-le hair was plainly dressed and she had on a shirtwaist and skirt. lf anyone comes, Ann, l'm not at home. She sank down desolately on the bottom step and thot it all out again, and blushed. Half an hour later, answering the phone, she cried excitedly: Oh, yes, Ronald. lf you think you can stave off your other numerous beaux this even- ing l'd like to come out and talk to you. There is something l've want- ed to say to you all week, but you are so popular that l couldn't expect to talk to you alone, but l'm tired of waiting, May I come? Once more the front porch was oc- cunied in the evenings-and once again, and this time without effort. Peggy captivated her audience of one. THE TAHOMA 22 THE TAI-IOMA ??. l..ord! We had a great time, said Bilious, when asked about the trip he and three other savages had taken up l'lood's Canal the summer before. And cheap-why, we got nearly all our eats, chickens, and eggs and vegetables, you know, for nothing, or 'for the takingf if you want to call it that. .And we made more 'summer acquaintances' in those two Weeks than in all our lives before. All those farmers us or knew of us Say, it was great. up that Way knew before we gots thru. You see, there were four of us and we'd never been away together before, so the trip was full of sur- everybody. They called or 'Biliousf according to what I was doing'at the moment. Then there was 'Uselessi fhe pro- nounced it Ulyssesj, the 'Cherubf so called because of his unsophisticated and innocent expression when he ex- plained to the farmer why he was weeding his vegetable garden. And then there was F lossy, which needs no explanation. We had decided to let 'Uselessl run the 'Tin Lizzy' on account of the dexterity with which he cut the corners on 9th and Broadway in his Hudson, but when it came to the simple matter of starting that Evinrude, there was nothing doing. Useless started his Hudson by pulling a lever, and stop- ped it by pushing another one, and when anything else was required, he telephoned down to the garage for some one to come up and assist with the car. Flossy and the Cherub weren't any good at this either. The former had taken Physics from Tvlr. prises for me 'Cap' 33 .99 Post and was entirely too theoretical. and the latter was artistically inclined, so of course I had to start the thing. I had a hair pin that I used to wiggle around in the old engine and sometimes it went and sometimes it didn't. Mostly it didn't. Our morn- ing recreation was getting that engine in a good humor, and when that was accomplished, we had to let it go until it ran down itself, and it certainly landed us in some queer places. Well, we all met on the dock about 3 o'clock tha.t afternoon and started to load up the Tin Lizzy with our stuff and Useless' 'baggagef as it turned out to be. All I had was what I had on and some canned eats, a fountain pen and some stationery. The Cherub's chief possession was half a sack of spuds, which he clung to fondly, ignorant of the land of milk and honey which lay before us. Flossy had enough canned cream to supply the Day Nursery for a couple of months, and Useless deposited two huge U. S. mail sacks bulging over with bundles in the bow of the boat. l-le told me of cold roast beef his mother had cooked, olives and lots of trimmings. They' turned out later to be a regular Keystone Comedy or Barnum or Bailey side show. A 'LThere are more ways of loading a boat than you can think of, and be- lieve me, the four of us had all the combinations there were. It was half past five before we were ready to start, and then there was another half hour for tuning up the engine. I wiped it all out with a soft piece of rag torn from one of the mail sacks, THE TAHOMA 2 'wmmanmmmm ,Qz 00,0 . , ..,. V' M ' 1 .1 1 . ..1, ' v1 ': ' 'A 'X ' -in H ' H nous az xfgh 0,59 -.

K.: 'Useless' was tinkering with his cam- era, the Cherub and Flossy were ac- quiring a good coat of sun-burn, bliss- fully ignorant of the consequencesg and I was steering and writing a letter. That night about nine We landed at a little town miscalled Lisabuella, con- sisting of a combination saloon Cthis was l9l5, rememberl, drug store ftho they are sometimes synonymousj, and a drygoods store and a standing population of five in the winter and ten in the summer. We made a good fire on the beach and prepared to turn in, at least three of us did. Useless, it seemed, was accustomed to certain formalities at this stage in the game and was overhauling the larger of the two mail sacks with a worried look on his face. He was making the dickens of a racket, so I yelled at him: H 'For the love of Pete, man, what do you want to eat at this time of the night for?' Poor Useless' face and voice were tragic. H 'E.at? I'm looking for my pa- jamas, you boobl' I That was the beginning of the side show that I mentioned above. It appears he was also looking for his gold-mounted tooth-brush, a pillow slip, and sheets! And he found them, too-all except the pajamas, and proceeded to use them. Talk about 'roughing it de luxeg' Useless was there with the goods, all right. ul-lalf an hour later when all was quiet, I crawled stealthily out to the boat and fished out the rag that I used for wiping the engines when we started. Closer investigation by the fire disclosed that it was a pair of lavender silk pajamas with Useless' initials on the pocket. Nothing happened tioning that afternoon. AHOMA Next morning he brought out some cologne, a bar of Pear's soap, and a disinfectant for the washing water. We broke camp at nine and ran up to Port Orchard Bay and then to Kingston. About three in the after- noon the engine went on an indefinite vacation, so we stopped and tried to see what was wrong. We camped there all night and took turns sleeping, because there was an old fisherman's shack just above us and he had taken great interest in us and our belongings. We didn't want him or our belong- ings to get the sleep-walking habit, so we really stayed up all night. We had a line dinner of spring chicken, new carrots and biscuits. We would have had some plums, too, but F lossy wa.s surprised by the appearance of the farmer whose tree he was look- ing over, and he fthe farmer, didn't seem to be satisfied by the explanations Flossy gave, so he flrlossyl came back to camp empty handed. The Cherub went on the prin- ciple that everything was good to eat until he'd proved it otherwise, and was always bringing some new kind of fish in to try. One morning he got a particularly ugly brute. The color alone was enough to make you sea- sickg but the Cherub cut it up and cooked it. l-le ate it himself, we weren't anxious to try experiments of that nature, but he didn'l seem as enthusiastic afterward when he start- ed. The next morning we struck a bunch of Hsherman and described the Cherub's fish to them. H 'Them's what's called rat lish,' said one of them, 'Scavengers, no good for eatin'.' Well, we hung round and decor- ated the landscape until they had pulled in the net and were all deeply interested in the contents when Flossy went tearing up the beach towing a monstrous crab by the foot and yelling like the dickens. l don't sec: how THE TAI-IOMA 25 that crab stood it as long as he Eid, for he stuck to Flossy's bare foot for half a block, Flossy only going 54 miles per. The only way to pacify him was to let him take a picture of us. We stood up with as many fish as we could hang on to and let him shoot. lqhe fish didn't mind it half as much as the men, who all ran, except one, and he was tied to the boat. Those nights up in the Canal were great. The mountains came right down to the water's edge, and the scenery beats anything I ever saw. After supper, which was usually beans, bacon, fried spuds, fresh trout and coffee, varied, of course, according to the locality, we used to lie around the fire. You clicln't have any inclina- tion to do anything or say anything-- just listened to the wind in the trees and watched the moon over the water that was lap-lap-lapping on the stones. Gee! That was the life! And you ought to have heard us singing 'When the Moon Shines on the Cow Shedf Away down at the end of the Canal we met a bunch of joyriders from Seattle. They were whooping it up. like good sports and werc a trifle under the weather fwhich wasnlt any too good to begin withj. They had evidently bought out a tobacco store before they left Seattle and pres- sed upon us a box of stogies, twenty- five centers. They even insisted that we light them then and there 'like gen'lemen.' So Cherub and Flossy half hearted whiffs and that they ought to tie more securely. Useless linger, but tore ourselves found the other two the boat. There were in it that they had been to take away the dizzy took a. few then decided our boat up and I clidn't away. We resting near some oranges trying to get feeling, but so far had been unsuc- cessful. The Cherub complained peevishly that the boat didnlt stay in the same place. 'The tide must be coming up,' and believe me it was 'coming up' in more ways than one. Finally Flossy solved the question by pointing an oar at the boat and crawling along, hanging on to that oar for dear life-and oranges. The trip home was made for the most part in a hurry. Our camps were few and far between, for the inhabitants of that part of the country were too well known to us-or rather, we were toot well known to them for our peace of mind. We hadn't been quite out of touch with civilization, for Useless had been more than generous, and we lived like kings all the way home on stuffed olives, chocolates, tinned meats and jams. f-le was a good old sport, even if he did bring along lavender silk pajamas, and the pictures he got were certainly great. We got into Tacoma about 'ioon one day, just two weeks after we had started, loo-kingolike veritable 'Knights of the roacl,' only in this case it was water. We made for home the quick- est way possible, but Useless gave a fitting climax to our adventures by taking his car from in front of the Pan and riding home in style. Vlfhen Useless, sister came out and looked for the car a little newsie offered the information that a 'little guy wid whiskers' had taken it.

I-lis deep blue eyes, and his hair very light and streaked with gold, were the only marks that distinguished him in appearance from his Arab com- panion. l-le had been born on the great desert under the shadow of the Sphinx: this accounted, people said, for his queer ways. For the boy loved wild flowers, but would not pick them from their stems, as other children did. Also, he seemed to have the power to commune with the timid wild animals and birds. l-le had no playmates, for his quiet retiring manner did not win him many youthful friends. His mother, his Arab servant, the woods and his books, made up his little world. ' When only six years old he had come with his mother to the great forest country of Maine. I-lis delicate health kept him from school, so his mother and the Arab servant were his only tutors. The education given him might have been frowned upon by some teachers of today, for he was taught only that which interested him most. The best liked of his studies was the Myths of Greece and Rome. I-Ie knew every story that was associ- ated with the name of each god and goddess. l-le thought of them, ,dreamed of them, and played with them until they seemed human com- panions. But the god beloved above all others was Pan, the joyous, the irresponsible, the maker of sweet, plain- tive music, the god who never grew old. The Boy as he wandered through the forests wished with all his young heart that Pan would come and to- gether they would skip and dance far into the heart of the forest. In imag- ination he could see Pan dancing over leafy hill and dale, 'his slim goat legs keeping perfect time to the music of his two pipes. l-lis long curly hair was wreathed in fresh, fair flowers. A low tender melody came from somewhere near, it rose and fell, and was silent. The Boy listened intently, then started forward calling eagerly, Oh Pan, wait for me, l'm coming! He ran and the melody seemed just ahead. on, on, down hills, over dales, and across brooks and through green tangles th-e music led him, until ex- hausted he fell murmuring the name of Pang then all was blackness. A tiny brown bird on a limb near by ruffled its feathers and its throat swelled with a low, joyous rippling song full of melodious chords. Months had passed since the Boy had followed the notes of a hermit thrush, thinking it the music of Pan. Months, and still he lay pale and al- most lifeless on his white bed, where the Arab servant had brought the un- conscious boy from the heart of the forest. The doctor looked at him and gravely shook his head. l-le will surely die if we cannot arouse him from that stupor. The words had hardly left his lips when a song of infinite beauty and plaintiveness floated quivering thru the air. Again and again it was repeated. THE TAHOMA 27 The frail form on the bed stirred, and a faint smile curved the thin, pale lips. A whisper hardly more than a breath said, Pan, you have come back at lastg dear Pan, you are so gooclf, i The crisis passedg soon the Boy began to grow in strength of body and minclg but always, even to manhood, he had a listening attitude, as if always waiting to hear again the pipes oi Pan. ff, v, , f to f Q55 24-NN ui JMX Rf MXSQYXIII ff WKTTTLIH W A G51 f- 55-angie FN 5 S10L3iiTfTiiiTTTJR :N 1 E Eli? 75-4?-ieiff K 28 THE TAI-IOMA The lnventofs Safe SANFORD MARTIN The tall lnspector stood staring fixedly at the body as it half sprawled on the desk, where it had relaxed when its life was snuffed out. ln the side of the head was the hole of a thirty- eight caliber bullet, but from where it had come no one could tell. The other detective examined for the third time the locks on the four windows of the laboratory and workshop, but with little satisfaction. That they had been locked from the inside could not be doubt-ed and probably by the inventor himself as he prepared to work on the plans of a new invention. Finally the Inspector spoke. Pro- fessor Girardf' he said, was shot from inside this room, but how the murderer escaped, heaving the win- dows and doors locked on the inside, seems an unsolvable mystery. The other detective said nothing, but con- tinued his examination. The jani- tor, the Inspector went on, said posi- tively that there was a key in the lock which he had to push out before he could unlock the door, which means that the door also was locked from the insidef, That morning Prof. N. E. Girard, the inventor, had been found dead by the janitor of the office building. On going to the inventor's iaboratory to perform his duties he had noticed the light burning, an uncommon occurrence so early in the morning. Receiving no response to his knock he had let himself in with his pass key. The professor's assistant, Frank Nichols, was known to be out of the city on business, but he was practically known to have no connection with the pro- fessor's death, because of the intimate relations between the two. Inspector Furnow aroused himself from his deep thought and took a general survey of the room. At the far end was a work table stretching the width of the room and above which were numerous rows of shelves lined with unlimited chemical and elec- trical apparatus. At the opposite end was the inventor's desk, at which he now lay just as he had fallen. Across from the desk on the side of the room was a safe, not a large one, raised on a pedestal so as to be reached more conveniently. This practically com- pleted the furnishings besides a few pieces of small machinery. here and there. A second door led to an ad- joining room frommthe end where the desk was, but this was locked and the key still in it. The Inspector stepped to the desk, emptied the waste basket on the floor and carefully sorted over the contents. There was nothing but a few pieces of crumpled paper. One of these he smoothed out. It was a telegram dated the day before and read, Will return at eleven-thirty Wednesday. Nichols. - The Inspector looked at his watch. It was a quarter to eleven. ln three- quarters of an hour Nichols would be there and throw what light he could, if any, on the mystery. The detective again went over the case from the beginning. The light had been found burningg the doors and windows all locked from the inside, no signs of a scuffle: no weapon found in the roomg and no place could be found where a bullet could have en- TI-IE. TAI-IOMA 29 tered the room. He sat in a chair motionless, with his eyes closed, turn- ing the matter over and over in his mind. Finally he heard a step out- side the door. l-le hastened across the room and opened it. A man of apparently twenty-five stepped in. He wore a surprised look on his strong, handsome face. Ir was a rare thing that anyone besides him or the professor was ever in the laboratory. Mr. Frank Nichols? asked the Inspector, 'as he eyed him closely. Yes, but what-Q? With a shock he saw the body of the profes- sor. The Inspector explained the cir- cumstances of his death so far as he knew them. Nichols listened atten- tively until the detective had finished. Then he walked quickly to the safe, and examined closely with a pocket lense a small hole above and to one side of the dial. Yes, just as I thought! he ex- claimed. I often warned him, for I knew it would happen some time, but I never dreamed it would -. prove fatalf' The Inspector was mystihed, but Nichols continued: I can't open this safe, but I can explain how this happened. The two detectives moved nearer to get every rx IMI N part of the explanation. This safe contains a burglar alarm that Prof. Girard invented himself. In this hole dir-ectly above the dial is a piece of selenium. This is a metal well-known to science. While there is light on it it is an electrical conductor. With no light ray on it it becomes a non- conductor. This piece of the metal is connected with a cell in such a way that when a burglar's lamp or any other light is flashed on it a re- volver is fired through this other hole. There is also a clock work which disconnects the current at live in the morning and connects it at ten at night so it will not go off in the day- light. You will observe tha.t the pro- fessor's chair is directly opposite the safe and when he was sitting up his head was on a level with it. He was working on an invention which he hoped to Hnish soon and was work- ing at night on it. Last night prob- ably he became so absorbed in it he forgot the time. At ten o'clock the current in the safe was switched on and as the light was shining on the selenium cells the revolver was dis- charged. It was mere fate that the professor was sitting in the path of the bullet. He probably never knew what happened. MYISSLLIJ CX A 7 x' .

D. 1941 CooPER BEFORE COURT Banker Denies Charges Against Him. This morning William W. Cooper, the former president of the Cxraftional Bank of Tahoma, was brought before the court for his first hearing. Cooper, it is charged, embezzled the funds of the organization that he is the head of to the extent of SI,560,343,567, and it is for that reason that the authorities have brought him before the public. The board of directors of the bank have suspected for a long time that there has been a bad leak in the organization's financial matters, but that body could never find any trace of the culprit. It was only a few days ago a discharged employe of the company gave out the inside facts of the case. She graphically described the underhanded manner that Cooper used to appropriate the bank's funds, and Prosecuting Attorney Carl Ekvall believes that if the girl, who is Miss Elizabeth Kirkwood, almiddle aged spinster, will tell the same story before the court, the conviction of the grafter is practically assured. Cooper remains calm and does not seem to worry the least bit over the coming trial. l-le steadfastly refuses to be interviewed by newspapers and the only picture he has allowed to be taken is that made by Bertillion Ex- pert Harry Naubert. ATHLETE DOWN AND QUT Coming as a complete surprise to old friends and former associates, the news persists that Joe Crumb had ap- plied to the Associated Charities for aid. Crumb disappeared from sight about eight years ago and his appearance at the local institution yesterday was the first that had been heard from him since that time. Crumb is down and out in every sense of the word. About twenty years ago he was one of the most popular characters in the entire coun- try. As an athlete he was unsur- passed, being a first string pitcher on the Stadium school ball team, a foot- ball player of no little repute and a wrestler who gave Crotch the hardest match that that individual had ever encountered. Following his athletic activities Crumb took to the stage, he being un- surpassed as a Shakespearean dram- atic and grand opera star. This life got too much on Mr. Crumb's nerves and the ordeal of dodging vegetable tributes every clay of the week broke down his nervous system. Crumb next took up newspaper writing. In this position Crumb made a hit, for never did Crumb have time to write anything except about him- self, which occupied all of his time. The editor of the journal decided that the name Joe Crumb was getting to TI-IE. TAI-IOMA be much too regular on the front page. so the budding young writer was dis- missed. Being unable to secure another position, Crumb gave his time to drink and other vile vices that go to ruin a man's career. His wife, for- merly Miss Cecila Godfrey, deserted him, and Crumb left, leaving his stack of debts behind. Crumb is not a bit lik-e his old self. His health is broken downg indications are that he uses snowg his nose betrays the fact that loganberry juice has flown freely and he is utterly devoid of the sense of right and wrong. It is very likely that Crumb will be placed in the local poor house to spend his weary days in peace and solitude. 'sf Q PRUSSIAN SCIENTIST MAKES DIS- COVERY Boneville, lVlichigan1rrom Bone- that Herman ville comes the news Thiel, the famous German chemist, has made a most startling discovery. Thiel has been heard of before, both as a mathematician and a scientist of no little repute, he having conducted experiments on the sixth dimension and to have conducted chemical experi- ments along the line of powderless baking powder and colorless shoe blackening. Professor Thiel's new discovery was the direct result of his attempt to better the lives and looks of men of his own calling. V Heretofor-e all chem- ists have been troubled by the fumes of the numerous compounds they are forced to make every day coming in contact with and killing the hair on th-e worker's cranium. Chemists have for years been forced to go ba.ld- headed after a short period of chem- istry work, but Thiel's new discovery will once more make all men equal in the eyes of the Worm. ' It is said that Thiel first got his idea when in high school, he seeing his chemistry teacher was minus a head of hair, and finding that it was due to the nature of the work. The new invention will be cast out to the entire public immediately. 'QQ' ARTIST l'LIRTS WITH MODEL People in the vicinity of South Sixth Avenue and Trafton Streets were recently brought out of their homes due to the commotion arising from the home of Boscoe Carver, the French artist. All sounds gave the impression that someone was being murdered within, so an entrance was effected. On entering the house the artist was found lighting on the floor with his wife and it was only after a hard fight that the neighbors succeeded in pulling the combatants apart. Mrs. Carver has not yet decided whether or not to start divorce pro- ceedings, she thinking it a good plan to give her husband, whom she still loves, another chance. 'Q45 Efficiency is gradually bringing the high cost of ,living down to a very nominal figure. This efficiency work is being carried on by means of experts on the subjects, one of the most -important of these being Robert Shaw, P. D., R., an old head at the game. Professor Shaw's latest work has been carried out in the tooth pick making industry. Through the work in efficiency that has been carried on in the factories of that industry, the cost of manufacture has been reduced 50.00001 on an ordinary box for household usage. This cut in the TI-IE TAI-IONIA manufacture enables the factory to place 502 tooth picks in a ten cent box where formerly but 500 could be sold at that figure. This extra quan- tity will mean a great saving for the public, as tooth picks are used in every household. 'Q-'Q' MTI-IE. FATAL Sue HERE NEXT MONTH Theater goers of the city are quite enthusiastic - over the announcement that Sir Donald Scanlon, the celebrated Shakespearean actor, and his all-star cast will be seen in this city, at the local opera house the first part of next month. l'le will present mlqhe Fatal Sipf, Sir Don has toured every country of the world and it is considered quite an honor for a city of this size to have such a great and powerful company in our midst. The members of the cast of The Fatal Sip are all stars, down to the lowest servant, and promise to give this city the most powerful production ever witnessed. Supporting Sir Don Scanlon in the cast are Costa Nylen, Sam Henkle, Mvrtle Calkins and Beatrice Wright. These four dramatists are all stars themselves, so that the com- panv is an AI organization is very easily recognized. Q 45 BUNco STEERER AGAIN AT WORK Detectives and special police are out from the East looking for Carl Peterson, a celebrated conlidence man who has operated in and is known in every city in the east. I-lis latest act was to sell the Statue of Liberty to a farmer, Leith Johnson, of Wash- ington state, for the nominal figure of 327. Old timers can recall the clever methods that the same Carl Peterson used to pull off in this city, a fair example being the selling of Mount tacoma to Lee Schoettler, a fellow high school student. Immediately af- ter that act Peterson left the city and nothing has been seen or heard of him since that time. The eastern detectives are of the opinion that the culprit has gone to seek larger hauls in foreign countries and expect every minute to hear of the selling of the United States of America to some European monarch. 'SQ Loccea RUNS AMUCK Wl'6CkS Saloon l..emmy Wingard, the moose log- ger and pride of the South-Western Wasliington logging camps, last even- ing became intoxicated with the exces- sive usage of soda water, and wrecked the South Pole soft drink parlor, which is owned by John Wolf. As Wolf gave the story to the police, the big guy, as he designated Winga1'd, whose head is seven feet from the ground, came in and drank two gallons of charged soda water. l-le asked for more, but, seeing the unstable condition that the logger was then in, Wolf refused to fill the glass. Wingard then became enraged, and picking up the entire counter, threw it out into the street. Chairs and tables were next demolished and to make the riot scene complete, Win- gard hung the stove on the chandelier and yanked the door off the four- ton safe. At the police station this moning, the logger was very repentant and offered to make all damage good. It is not seen how it will be possible for him to do this, as he is penniless, so it is very likely he will be given a long sentence in the State Peniten- THE TAI-IOMA tiary to learn how to put his brute strength to more useful advantage.

The guests ejected him by the seat of his pajamas and hilariously returned to their orgies, which were materially brightened by the incident. The party finally broke up, however, and by sunrise all of the guests were re- turned to their homes. Two wild young carousers were not quite ready for bed yet. They were Wa1'de Hiberly, a young sport, and Chas. Thompson, a cheese merchant. They stole a milk wagon from Espey Hampton, who drives for th-e American Dairy, and drove off down the street. Hamp- ton ran in pursuit and finally found the culprits curled up under the clriver's seat. The case will appear in court tomorrow. 'Qbf'Qf WANT ADS PERSONAL-Old soldier desires to marry.

They were assembled in a large and beautiful hall, befitting only a class of their rank. Silence prevailed throughout the entire body. Not a sound could be heard except the heavy breathing of the multitude that was waiting patiently for their leader to say the last word. The leader stood up, tall and stately, realizing that this was the last time he would stand before his class. There was a look of defiance in his eyes, but his face showed many wrinkles, signs of deep thought and worry. He slowly gazed into the sea of faces before him. It was the last time that he would see them, upturned and looking at him with such a sad expression. Uschoolmates, We are here assembled this day for the last time. We are about to pass from out of the High School life into the land beyond. The almighty School Board and the Mighty Ruler Hunt have signed and delivered to us our death warrants. We are condemned to die, they have agreed that we should no longer live in this High School life, but must pass on to the unknown. 'iWe are here assembled to read and to issue our last Will and Testa- ment, which has been drawn up in due form and manner. Here he turned slowly toward me, and beckoned. 'I stood up, the Will in my hand. Our classmate will now read our last Will and Testament. It. contains all that which is in our power to give to our faculty, school board and underclassmenf' Our leader sat down and I c-ceded to read the last Will Testament of the Class of l9l6. pro- and We, the Class of l9l6, being of sound body and clea.r of mind and memory, do hereby make our last Will and Testament.

You will remember that in the usual form, first there is In our freshman year we were secondly In our sophomore year we did, thirdly In our junior year we attempted and fourthly While in our senior year we became-H I want to apologize for the two Vs I have used to this point and for the many which are to follow. If I should write down what we did, it would not fill many sheets, but if I shall chronicle what you did and what I did it will, in outline, consume many pages. As a class we were much like other classes but as individuals we were preeminent- ly superior. We should look upon this high school with much the same sentimental attachment that we look upon the kind relative who pulled our first tooth or the little boy who gave us our Hrst bloody nosef' I grant you it is hardly an attitude of entire devo- tion, but yet it has something of sentiment in it. Our tooth had to be pulled, our nose, for our spiritual development, had to be punched And it was this high school, dear old Stadium High, that robbed us of our baby-hood. As I look back, I can locate to the minute when my infancy Hrst took sick and doubtless you can do as much for yours. We had all been herded into the new auditorium. had been used and, if I remember correctly, the first time Mr. Hunt had seen service, also. The sophomores and some juniors and seniors, had paraded by for our amusement, but at last, from somewhere, a little bell rang and the procession ceased. Mr. Hunt explained to us that as he called our names, we were to rise and follow a certain teacher. He would call Susie Green, Maggie Jones, etc. The aforesaid would come to the front and march out behind Mrs. Varnes, for example. He was reading off a list of names that were to follow a certain manual training teacher. I heard him read Tommy So and So. Now Tommy So and So was seated not three aisles away and he did not rise. Tommy was half-witted 'or perhaps three- quarters witted. Mr. Hunt read the list again and still Tommy did not rise. I knew Tommy should rise and I knew by all grade standards I should inform Mr. Hunt that there Tommy sat. My hand was half way up when it crossed my mind, i'What aHair is it of yours? I put my hand down and have never, for such an end, raised it since. I say there my infancy sickened prepar- atory to death. Doesn't this remind you of some experience of your own? All during that first week, the ends of my lingers were cold and I was frightfully nervous. The strange part is, I did not attempt to conceal it. Now, at such a crisis, I sprawl myself expansively over my desk and the one in front and both aisles, and assume a bored expression. But then I merely quailed under Miss I..iddell's fiery glance. I became more and more daring. Within two weeks I had whispered in rollroom. And within three I had deliberately skipped a meeting of the Tahoma associate editors and had ignored one lesson completely. Most of us know how that goes and THE TAI-IOMA I07 many of us to our sorrow. My sal- vation came from without. I can no more explain how my teachers kept me at it and still kept me adoring them than I can explain how you can spend a dolla.r and still have it. It was just such a miracle. For I was as lazy as the next one and still I worshipped the ground they walked upon. And now for a paragraph on what we did. We .captured the football championship of the school. Most of us will not soon forget that day, in assembly, when the freshie team losr to the seniors in a debate by a two to one decision and how everyone except the judges acknowledged the manifest unfairness exhibited. We were a splendid class in the good old days. As sophomores, in a body, we were fairly inconspicuous. But as individ- uals, we began to shine. Olive Swain, for example, much to the envy of us all, contributed to the HTahoma. As juniors, we began to look up. We organized, and P-red Gilbert was our president. We established a Student Loan Fund by giving a read- ing, 'iThe Rivalsf by President South- wick of the Emerson School of Ora- tory. This affair was under the able direction of Miss Wagen, with Warde l-liberly doing the blowing while she worked. We don't mean to be hard on you, Wa.rde. You've helped out in many a pinch, but we couldn't re- sist the being humorous. At last we were seniors. Our sen- ior year is marked by our class elec- tion and silence is more eloquent than words on that point. We had a splendid senior assembly, and con- tributed to practically all the assem- blies. And we had a class play. And again words fail me. But ask any ignorant freshman, tutored in the jitney opera and ignorant of the methinks of the Bard of Avon and he will grin to his toes and say merely, Fine. And now, by your leave, I will close. I know I have forgotten more than I have remembered. I have not mentioned the Pirates or Pinafore or Sylvia nor Cinder- ella nor Queen Esther nor The Contest, but consider that I have been silently eloquent on them. Within a year we will have for- gotten every date and every name we ever learned. We will multiply the exponents when we divide X4 by x2. In two years we will have for- gotten each other and cannot locate that face when we pass it on the street. But in twenty-Hve years we will still remember the school and in fifty years, whether the name are with us or not the teachers will be in us, for they will be to us The Choir lnvisiblef' who, Beget the smiles that have no cruelly, Are the sweet presence of a good diffused Whose music is the gladness of the world.

TAI-IOMA THE TAI-IOMA H3 The Road to Fame LINCOLN PARK PROPHECY William Smith, commonly known as Bill, pa.ced the softly lighted deck of the Hyer as it sped thru the night. Far below an occasional cluster of lights glittered for a moment, then faded. Now and again a soft wind, caused by the airship's flight, stirred his thin- ning hairy he passed his hand thru it and smiled. Fifteen years ago. when he was a light-hearted Senior at Lincoln Park High, his thick, glossy hair had been a source of pride to him. ' Fifteen years! What changes the world had seen. He himself had gone to Europe immediately after the war, accepting Carusois offer to act as his impressario. Now he was manager of a great operatic company, but the temperamental natures, of his three stars, Valley Bigby, Ruth Hjertaas and Julian Perkins had forced him to go on this vacation. i On the horizon the lights of'Taco- ma grew stronger. The great ship steered for a blazing tower which reared high in the air on the site of the old depot. Linn Alger, manager of the United Air Line Company, came across the deck. He had ac- companied Bill from the Trans-Ab lantic Aerodrome at New York. I just magnetiphoned the tower, Bill, he explained. There's a. big crowd there. The ship having glided to rest on a spacious platform, they entered a lift for the central level. ' As they stepped out a shout greeted them, and the Glad Hand to Strangers League rushed up, and Bill shook hands with Banard Alstead, Helen Hammerlin, May, Ellen, Harry, Will and Ralph Beeman. They all entered Hilding Ander- son's big city flyer, and sped toward the North End. As they sailed over the new city hall, a sleek, handsome head popped out of a window. There's lVl-erritt Stiles, our Beauty Expert, remarked Hilding. Beauty Expert? ejaculatecl Bill. Yes, You see, the girls nowa- days are graded according to' looks in the 'general rights' system, and Merritt passes on them. H'm! sniffed Bill, Merritt al- ways was a pretty good judge. When will that office be vacant? Suddenly a slim car darted from the building, and the flyer was stopped by an electric retarding ray. A sharp voice commanded them to descend. What's the meaning of this de- lay? demanded Hilding, indignantly. Exceeding the speed limitf' snap- ped the policewoman, whom Hoyt rec- cgnized as Sybil. But we were c-nly going a hundred miles an hour,' protested the party. Kenneth Hazen ushered them into a spacious office, at one end of which was an elevated platform for Mar- garet Platt's desk. Same old Bill, sh-e beamed, Hnot here half an hour and pinched for speeding. Well, since I couldn't meet you, l'm glad you came to see me. HTO see you,'i he stammered. ..WhyT., Don't you know?', Olson, lVIargaret's our lice. Sure, said lVlargaret, when the Revolution swept women out of the kitchen and into public office, I just had to get in the swim. ' Just then Elsie Forsythe tripped cried Edith chief of po- II4 TI-IE. TAI-IOMA into the room. Ah, cried Margaret, cur little prosecuting attorney has come to investigate the case. Behind her strode Merritt and Winifi'ed Gs- born. Hour mayor, said Merritt, indi- cating Winifred. Margaret proving to be a very lenient chief of police, the party soon resumed their flight. What are those funny lights? exclaimed Bill suddenly. Our city gardens, answered Mad- eline. You know all our vegetables are grown under electric rays-you can plant them today and eat them tomorrow. Whewl,' whistled Bill. She's too modest to tell you, broke in Don, that she's the agricul- tural expert at the farm. Say, Bill, laughed Madeline. see those purple lights over there? that's Don's province. What is it? asked Bill. The public nursery. All the city's children are placed there to sleep under the stimulating antiseptic Purple Ray. Don is head inspector of the nursery. My! Bill gasped in bewilderment. And is Jerome head nurse? John McDonnell is head nurse, replied Mary l-lamaker, and Jerome is Cupid. What? again whistled Bill. Oh, yes: you know, nowadays, most people don't marry by choice. They decide to take the fatal plunge, then go to the City Cupid, who makes out a chart of their birthday, disposi- tion and character. Cupid then picks out a corresponding chart, introduces the couple, and there you are. Jer- ome's Cupid. Does-does he carry a bow? asked Bill weakly. Yes, and poor Howard Parker is going to feel it. He actually dared to refuse his chart mate. Poor manf' sympathized Bill. Yes, all bachelors over thirty have to file a chart with Cupid for reference. Then when a woman comes looking fc-r a chart mate, if he doesn't accept his allotment, he is arrested. And Howard? Wlqurned her down. Said he didn't like her looks or some such nonsense. But she proved before Judge Nee that she fitted his chart, so he either takes her or he is put up at public auction. Oh, don't worry, soothed Stella laureguy, the girl he really likes has lots of money, so she'll buy him in. just then the car arrived at the Anderson mansion and the party des- cended to the dining room. This feed was prepared by Evelyn Oliver, the city chef, whispered Onetia Bodenheimer to Bill. It was a gay party, and the speeches of Lorimer Langlow and Mary Pakenham brought back mem- ories of auld lang syne, while Glen Carpenter convulsed them all with his flow of wit. At the conclusion, l-lilding led the way to a larger room hung with black, and pointed to a huge machine. A little surprise prepared by our famous inventor, Bob Minshallf' he said. Bob rose. I have just perfected my world-scope, he exulted, which by a sympathetic ray-collector can be set for any part of the world, and will throw upon the screen a picture of what is going on there. Wand-erful I Simply an inverted wirelessfi -'miled Robert. This attracts rays, instead of repelling them. With this apparatus we may visit our absent friends. Who shall it be first? But can they see us? queried Ralph Pinkerton. Surely. I throw the Z-Ray on you, which projects your negative into TI-IE. TAI-IOMA II5 their sphere, and by the aid of the projectiphone, we may even talk with them. Only we will be but shadows to them. l..et's visit Henry Cramer's Con- vent, cried NaAmy. No one's ever been inside. Henry in a convent? Bill was plainly astonished. He refused to furnish a chart to get married with, explained Ruth Johnson, and established a convent for bachelors, next door to that soup joint run by Heloise Eggers and Myrtle Gooref' With a slight movement, Bob photographed Henry, of the flowing robes and pensive mien, walking in his garden. As the party was flashed into the scene, he cried out in mock fear: Classmates! Cover your faces! There are women present. Oh, who are they? questioned Marguerite Cory. Gee, it's 'Gertrude Augustine and Geneva Ball. Stub Nelson edged forward, but was restrained by Hild- ing's hypnotic gaze. Laughing heartily, the party left to visit a crowded hall, where they found Helen Hollensted harranguing a mob. uShe's running for president this year on the votes-for-men ticket, ex- plained Melvin. They say she's a second Roosevelt. She gained a lot of popularity with her home for Friendless Con- ductors, said May Murphy. l..et's go and see how Ethel Al- drich is faring in her new position of Hrofessor of Slang at Bryn Mawr, and if she has her assistants, Ned and Lee, trained to the highest notch of eth- ciency, suggested Elsie. When they had done this, Bill sug- gested Hnding his opera company, and immediately there flashed before them a most amazing sight. Valley, Rutl' and Julian were held captives by savages, to entertain the fat, oily king. Valley's golden voice failing to charm him, Ruth began a lively Car- rnencita, which so delighted his king- ship that he commanded the others to dance also. ln spite of his protests. Julian was forced to give a Salome, while Valley rnajestically executed a Highland Fling. Enraptured, the king leaped from his throne to dance with her. The party sprang to their feet. Throw that ray on us, cried Glenn. We'll make them hike. Men nothing! exclaimed Esther Jensen, rolling up her sleeves. We girls are in on this. ' Immediately their shadows were flashed into the king's tent, and the savages became dumb with fear. They soon recovered, however, and a lively riot ensued. Edith Elkins, watching the fight, remarked to Lillian Whitman that the savages used the same method as the airship party. V I wonder how they learned it, puzzled Lillian. Millie Gault and Margaret Magnussen teach that method in the Ganz, Pitcher and Sather School from Hoag's book, Fist and Tooth. Lillian Brilfet told me about itg she made the illustrations for it. Suddenly Laura Shock yelled, Hello, Linn, and as everyone turn- ed to stare at her, the fighting ceased. Then followed a perfect torrent of explanations. Linwood, Ernest and Percy, tiring of civilization, had in- duced several of their friends to join this tribe with them. Mary Mc- Artor, Helen Grant and Mabel Tol- strup had come upon them in their wanclerings in the missionary field, but their efforts to convert them had failed. True, Butch Davis, Harold, Clarence and John Feeney had wavered, but Bill Gamer, Fred and Ben had held them steadfast. The tales of their life impressed Alvin Holmes so favor- j II6 THE. TAI-IOMA ably that he decided to found a tribe of his own, and Charley Pruess and Fred Packard cast their lots with his. Now what? asked Robert, turn- ing from the machine. How about the Butt institute? suggested Bill. ln a moment they were there, and had th-e privilege of watching Ruth, assisted by Inger, grafting Elsie Freiheit's vocal box to Laurence Al- gyer's throat, thereby making him a wonderful songbird. . ' As they fl-ew along again, Hilding pointed out the McCabe, Sullivan and Tripler Powder Factory. ls that where they're having the strike that the Garceau Daily Gossip talks so much about? Yes, Hazel Johnson and Nluriel want I-lildur-she's manager-to give Ralph Afden and Wilfred work, and when she refused, they sent for Har- riet to lead a strike. Snartemo, Wil- son and Athow, the Company's law- yers, are trying to restore peace. What kind of powder do they make? asked Bill. You've heard of the Emma-June F ace Powder, surely, exclaimed Ger- trude Moseback. uRoy Carden sug- gested the namef, 6 5 J i WN? it X Say, who's running that submarine line that lVlclVlullin,s Weekly adver- tises? Those are some ads,'i and Bill's booming laugh rang out. Aren't they, though? So are the bill boards around the Bomstead Play- grounds. Hannah Berg owns the line and Li'l Arthur is traffic agent. For good ads go to the Kiezling-Lief Company. Robert now dropped the curtains over his beloved world-scope, and the party repaired to the cooler part of the mansion. Herbert Anderson, Hil- ding's butler, phoned across the street to Guilford's Soft Dring Parlor and in about ten minut-es Orsova had sent, by way of a pipeline, a delicious cool- ing Huid. A dull thud as the evening paper came thru the mail shute announced Axel's flight over the housetops. Hil- ding glanced at the headlines and jumped up. Look here! l..et's all go down to see the Dunlap and Carlson Trained Sea Animals. How many are in for ir? ' Every one seemed to be, so they all piled into the flyer and sailed off. RUTI-I WAHLBERC.

I20 THE TAHOMA i r i r Within a few days. we, the Class of 1916, will have ceased to exist as a class, and will be merely a memory, a memory composed of traditions, records and duties performed. These three are our greatest gifts to our school, and our only hopes for remembrance. As a class we have established, and helped to establish, traditions which will probably outlive the memory of the class itself. We helped to establish the Student's Loan Fund, and we started a revival of oldtime class spirit. Then, too, we began a few' customs in relation with the faculty, and in various class ajfairs. Witli these, our own poor traditions, we hand. down that .vast number we have received from former classes, the traditions that will guide future classes as they have guided ours. We have set a few records. too, that will aid our chances for remembrance. ln athletics our class teams have been unusually successful, and have aided in rousing a good class spirit. We have done our best in providing musical and other entertainment in assemblies and concerts, and if we may be pardoned for it, we feel that we have done more than fairly well. We are proud, too, of our class plays, and feel that they' have set records in Shakespearean and modern drama which will be surpassed only by the intensest of efort. ' The duties we leave behind us are ofthe greatest importance to subsequent classes, especially to the Class of 1917. On our departure, it falls to you, members of the Class of '17, to bear the brunt of school life. You'must create and encourage the highest of school spirit and make yo-ur school the synonym of fair play and good spirit. It is your duty to stand behind the faculty in all decisions, else there will be continual friction in all school affairs, and everything gained thru your school spirit will be lost. The responsibility of backing and organizing all school activities is yours, the success of next year's clubs, teams and musical organizations depends largely upon your efforts. The Tahoma also is yours, and you must talfe it with all its short-comings, an dmalfe it bigger, better and broader than ever before. There is vast room for work there, and we hope sincerely that you will do all within your power to improve it. Finally, there are the one hundred and one lesser duties that a Senior class must perform. Some are large and some small, but all count toward making the Senior class what it really is. T, VER since high schools were THE. TAHOMA D IZI When all these duties are taken into consideration, the task before you. Class of 1917, is no small one: but we are confident that your class is one that will accomplish everything that falls to its lot, and more than that, accom- plish everything well. To revert to the original theme, our hopes of remembrance depend on these three factors: The Traditions, Records and Duties which we leave behind us. Today no one can say whether our class will live or even whether we have accomplished anything worth while-that goes more deeply into life than we can see. But if, in the future, a member of the 1916 class finds a tradi- tion, a record or a duty we established, and finds it respected by tho-se who malge use of it, he can then feel that the Class of '16 has been of worth, and does exist, not in name, nor in substance merely, but in the only true measure of worth, in its deeds. fs- 'sf THE HIGH SCHOOL BOY the summer and earn enough to put them thru the winter months. ln' wit' originated, there has been the criticism, often just, ,gtial perhaps, that high-school boys do nothing but bum, dance, and have a score or two of girls on the string. However, investiga- tion has proved it different. It may interest Tahoma readers to hear the high school boy side of the case. viz 4 One afternoon not very long ago we interviewed Mr. Lancaster, who, with Mr. Edwards, has charge of the Employment Bureau at Stadium High. He is a man who strives honestly and earnestly to help boys and befriend them at all times. On being ques- tioned concerning the success of the employment department, he answered that he has had more jobs than he has been able to till. During the year he has placed more than seventy boys in a great variety of situations, such as planting potatoes, piling wood, mowing lawns, doing advertising work, distributing hand bills, doing odd jobs for room and board, chauffeur duty, tending furnaces, working in stores, delivery work, tending gas engines, milkings cows and doing stenography work in offices. He added that ap- proximately thirty or forty per cent of all high-school boys work during Now students, parents, and others who may read this, does the criticism mentioned sound entirely just? At Lincoln Park High three hundred boys do odd jobs of all sorts. Two boys earn as high as thirty and forty dollars a month, many support themselves, and one boy earnsnfifty dollars a month and pays board. Think of that! Yet just three weeks ago a business man said that high-school boys do not know how to work. Was that criti- cism just? A Of course, there 'are black sheep in every flock, always some who dis- grace themselves and the school by sporting around, attracting attention, and giving the school the wrong kind of advertising. But that is no reason Why 1400 students should be sland- ered, many of whom work from three to eight hours a day earning the means whereby they can obtain an education. -R. P. 'I6. fEditorial Note-The writer of this editorial, being one of those two or three hundred boys who work, feels that the criticism is unjust, and has taken this opportunity to present the other side of the picture to those who are interested., l22 THE TAI-IOMA ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS S.

The Art and Commercial Depart- ments have been of especial assistance. They have helped immensely in mak- ing the Tahoma what it is. Thru the assistance of a number of the Seniors, the matters of pictures and Writeups for the various members of the graduating classes were com- pleted, and a very difficult matter so disposed of. Those who helped were: Herman Thiel, Robert Shaw, Warde l-liberly, Elsie Forsythe, Helen Hol- lensted, Ruth Hjertaas, Julian Per- kins, Ralph Pinkerton, Harry Markoff. We are deeply grateful to the busi- ness men of this city who have been regular advertisers in the Tahoma. It is due chiefly to their patronage that the Tahoma retains its prestige. Finally, we wish to thank our prin- ters, engravers and linotypers for the interest, they have taken in our paper. It is their effort which gives the Ta- homa its neat and clear-cut appearance, a factor of no small importance in our success. NECESSARY I hear that they buried the Janitor last week.

Q QA CLASS PLAY Altho it has not been given first column, it still holds a our memories. gossip that is handed each Senior Class has play the best, therefore, place in this Hrst place in From the down to us considered its we should hesitate in declaring our play the best. However, considering that it was a Shakesperean play, which amateurs fear to attempt, and the natural talent of the players under the direction of Miss Black these fac- tors made the play unmistakably the best ever given by a Senior Class. The play of 1916 was and always will be the best play ever given at Stadium High School. So, dear Society Editor- to-be, we have set you the pace, see that you keep it up. The leading roles were played by Nora l-lavel and Donald Scanlon, and from gossip heard about school no one could possibly have tak-en the parts better. In fact, the parts of Katherine, the Shrew, and Petruchio, the tamer, were written for Nora and Donald only. The more romantic and appealing roles were taken by Myrtle Calkins and Herman Thiel, the successful suitor, Joe Crumb and C-osta Nylen, as disappointed suitors. The comedy parts scored a big success, being played by Cecilia God- frey, as Curtis, Ralph Barrett as Grumio, and Virgil Anderson as Biondello. Other important characters in the play were Samuel Henkle, as the old father of the two girls, a most difficult character to assume, Carl Ekvall, portraying an old gentleman of Pisa, and Thomas C-ilpatrick, as Tranio, and Beatrice Wright as the Widow. The minor parts were taken by lVlyrth Mason, l-larry Walker, Lee 124 THE TAHOMA ,.. Te eq.

Crafts. of Wash- ington, D. C., paid us a visit May I6.

'QB' 'Q' At a recent assembly Miss Dodds' l2B English class presented the court scene from the Merchant of Venice. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all the students, Hugo Carlson making the biggest Uhiti' with his interpretationof Shylock. Another big treat for that assemblv was the talk given by Prof. Frank Kraeger of Pullman. He an- nounced his subject as Marriage, but it ended in one of the best talks for boys ever given at this school, one that will be remembered by the students for all long time. -Q is Our Senior Class play, Sher- woodf' although now an event of the past is by no means a forgotten episode. During our high school career, espec- ia.lly our Senior year, we have been involved in many activities, but Sher- wood was probably the most gigantic undertaking of all. And here we may say that memories of it bring a great re- ward, inasmuch as it reminds us of a successful work. , Early in Februarv the problem of selecting a suitable play confronted the class. A student committee consisting of Helen Hc-llensted, Ruth Hjertaas, Margaret Platt, Hilding Anderson, Merritt Stiles, Julian Perkins and Don Brothers was appointed to judge plays. These people, in conjunction with a faculty committee, spent many hours debating over the worth of this play and that one. There was a great agitation for a Shakespearean production, owing to the tercentiary celebration this spring. but after many lengthy sessions Alfred Noyes' Sherwood, was chosen. The play. although woven about in- cidents familiar to every reader of Eng- lish literature, was an entir-ely new one to everyone in the school. At first the magnitude of the production, the great size of the cast, the short time for prep- aration, the enormous cost and a count- less number of other incidents made the success of the play rather dubious. But the entire class displayed a spirit of work that pointed to success. In choosing Sherwood, the class certainly had a wonderfully interesting subject to work with. Around the deeds of Robin Hood, the outlaw, and his merry men, numerous plots have been woven, but romantic Sherwood is said to be the greatest of all. ln the main the plot is as follows: Prince John, who .would usurp the throne of his brother. Richard Coeur de Lion, who is crusading in the East, de- sires the hand of the beautiful Maid Ma.rion, daughter of Fitzwalter. He offers his love and is rejected, as Maid lvlarion is betrothed to Robin Hood, Earl of Huntingdon. Queen Elinor, crafty mother of Prince John and Richard, is secretly in love with Robin and also does much to prevent the mar- riage of Robin and Marion, but is un- successful. Subsequent battles between Prince ,lohn's forces and Robin Hood's band follow, and bring the play to a most exciting climax. King Richard's re- turn also is very drama.tic. Robin I28 T I-I E.

TI-IE TAI-IOMA 129 Hood is finally wounded by one of Prince John's men and makes his way to Kirklee priory. Here Maid Marion comes to aid him and both fall vic- tims to the treacherous Queen Elinor's knife. The plot is interspersed with delightful fairy scenes, and the clever work of Shadow-of-a-Leaf, court fool, greatly increases the effectiveness of the play. ' Miss Docia Dodd, our teacher of Oral Expression, was given the almost impossible task of whipping a suitable cast from the Seniors. She entered on her work with a sincerity, zeal and good spirit that has endeared her to all of the school. The duty was a great one and although it sorely taxed her strength she finished triumphantly and with success on every side. It was mentioned everywhere that Sherwood was 'ithe best ever in hign school pro- ductions, and to Miss Dodd belongs much of the credit. Although her work was of the heaviest, she states that she was amply repaid in the way in which everyone responded. Miss Catherine Winslow had charge of the dances and her able drilling was noticeable in both productions. The dancing of the fairies was really fairy- like. Mr. O. B. Sperlin was given the little-praised but hard-worked position of stage manager, and he certainly up- held the high tone of the play in the scenes. 'lhe scenery was beautiful and Mr. Sperlin is certainly deserving of praise for his conscientious work. Others of the faculty who rendered in- valuable service and helped greatly to the success of the play were Miss Drummond, Miss Ford, Mr. Mallory and Mr. Ball. Mr. Sperlin's squad of stage hands also worked like troop- ers. Russell Nelson was appointed business manager and Ralph Pinkerton advertising manager. And now for the cast: Everyone who saw the play knows' that they handled their parts ably. From the leads down they acquitted themselves nobly and in a manner showing their careful prepa.ration. Although the tedious re- hearsals meant many a sacrifice not a one complained. Everyone was glad to do it for the play. The Seniors are indebted to several outsiders who volunteered for unfilled parts, namely: Nancy Hedberg, the cunning Puck: Floyd Baker, as Blondel, and Glenn Moore, as Alan-a-Dale. To make the venture a complete success, the production was greeted with two capacity houses, with total receipts of over S550, the largest gross re- ceipts that have greeted a Tacoma high school production in years. The ex- penses totaled slightly over 3400, so we are able to leave a goodly amount to the school. ?F'l.J'fX f es fs? U1 67 ,age A My tr, l ,LJ 'Fl' 1. fr' STADIUM HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY .4 of EIHJ.

A new, splendid concert grand piano that will play a prominent part in school life for many years to come has been placed on the platform. On looking over the music depart- ment work for the past three years we recognize that we have been more than ever fortunat ein having such an able leader as Mr. Ball. Mr. Ball has put more life and spirit into the music department than any other director has ever hoped and for that reason we all feel a fond affection toward that indivlaual. For the future music work we wish the highest success and we are confident that if the present able director retains his place our wishes will blossom into the highest of reality. Q Qi Friday evening, May l9, a de- lightful concert was rendered by the Stadium Music Department, with out- side artist's help, in the school audi- torium.

The numbers that the boys sang were Evening Bells, 'iln Old Madrid, We Tickled the Tail of the Tad- polen and Crossing the Barf, They had many very good encores also. One of the numbers that was the most enjoyed was a violin solo by Mr. Roy Andersong another was a cornet solo by Mr. Sewall Snypp. Besides accompanying the boys at the piano Mr. Nelson Morrison play- ed two very enjoyable piano solos. Mr. Adams has certainly made a good director for the boys. QQ- A piano trio by Julia Raymond, Helen Cameron and Bertha Dow was enjoyed immensely Friday, May 12. Q Q Thursday, May IS, will remain a red letter day for the students of Lincoln Park High School, for they certainly enjoyed the songs that the Varsity Double Quartet from the University of Washington sang to them. It is a very rare thing to have some one come and sing the most popular songs to us, and there is no doubt but what they made a great hit -especially the China- man. Meg Cory said she fell in love with him at first sight. Oh, if he only knew it. r Q Q At the program given by the Par- ent-Teachers' Association May IS, both the Girls' Glee Club and the Boys, Glee Club were heard from.

April 29, l9l6. The Tahoma can claim my little services any time my whereabouts offer material of interest. This time I feel like a volume and have little faith in affording copy of interest within the space of a letter. However, know that our comforts are those of a French soldier and that is why I must write this seated inside my car upon my bed. German prisoners, cap- tured last night in the soggy trenches, soiled to the neck, climb the road fif- teen feet from us. Aeroplanes descend IOO feet above our heads, with the harmonious whistle of their wings and wires perpetually in our ears, bring- ing news from the front and from behind the German lines to the avia- tion parc across the road. We mix well with aviators, in fact, with a.ll Frenchmen. Quite naturally we were obliged to meet them with their own language. It was labor, but an in- teresting and now most entertaining accomplishment. Must not devulge any secret or this will not arrive. Please be patient if I can only give you a general idea of where we are located. We, made up of college graduates principally, number 20 in section No. 2 of the American Ambulance, are credited with being one of the most mobile sections, and for past services were complimented by an opportunity to take part against the German offen- sive around Verdun. That battle would fill out a High School course, and our little part consisted in driving Wounded brought in by Frenchmen, over a shell swept road: so shelled, in fact, that we were obliged to learn the road over again each time We passed by the shelled districts: for to drive into a hole meant the ruination of your car. Eclats, or pieces of shell, have whistled by our earsg the ex- plosion often obliging us to drive through its dust. Many of us have come in, our hair on end, only too willing to let off pressure of excite- ment by relating what just missed us on our last trip. It was imperative that the road be used-the only avenue of issuanceg that is why soldiers and horses were killed on it. They missed us, and let me confess, it was splen- did fun to be missed. This was of two weeks duration. The first two weeks of the German drive. Since, we have been moved again, nearer Verdun, and yet out of gun fire. At the present moment our dangers are confined to the airy should a Zeppelin or an aeroplane make a call. May it be said with penitence that a few of us without permission, eager to ob- serve from a position more proximate, drove our cars beyond Verdun, after inspecting the battered hisorical city, until the expected appearance of a shell explosion and then some more cirove us back. We had been within two kilometres of the fiercest battle ground the world falls heir to. We had penetrated far within the French artillery, and our ears were deaf from the departures, suddenly revealing can- not fifty feet away ingeniously con- cealed from German aeroplanes. Why they allow the Americans such license I can not answer. I guess it is be- cause they take it. We have wit- nessed aeroplane combats in air and in every instance the German fell. The aviators relate their experience to us. Most interesting. Would like to make a Bight with them. We have seen Navarre drop two German machines precipitately from several miles in the air, after the Germans had dropped bombs near us. What falls they were! And the cars we drive: They are disguised Fords competing with cars that cost 557,000 and 356,000 The beauty of it all is that from the stand point of the wounded they are better, and the trouble they give is nominal. The practical Ford I36 THE TAI-IOMA has never rendered a better service. We have covered more than 200 miles in a day at times while carrying wound- ed. It is the sling to the body we have put on which renders the ambu- lance disposed to easier riding. I wish l might send you pictures, but there is not the possibility of a chance: regulations to the contrary. Pictures that arrive in the U. S. are carried across by someone. Be sure that we pride ourselves in the care we give the wounded in our charge. It is greatly abetted by Americans who generously send us tobacco for dis- tribution. To be sure, I have men- tioned little, hoping thereby not to intrude upon the- Censor's peace of mind and thereby facilitating the pas- sage of these lines: utandisque main- tenant je peux voir s'esquisser sur la bouche de cuistot les mots a tablef, Very sincerely, - CARROLL G. RIGCS '09, 'QP 'Q' Seniors who are thinking of col- lege, and even those who are not, will enjoy the following letters from Cuecrge Long, who is studying engin- eering at Cornell, and Dorothy Demp- sey, who is completing her second year at Vassar . nlumni Editor Tahoma: ln reply to your request, I am very glad to write a few lines about a big subject, Cornell. In the first place, Cornell is located in Ithaca, a town of l5,000, situated at one end of Lake Cayuga, and is just a four hours ride from Buffalo and Niagara Falls and only a night's ride from New York and Philadelphia. Lake Cayuga, contrary to usual be- lief, is a large lake, some 35 miles long and about 3 miles wide. On the hill along the eastern side of the Lake Valley and above the town lies the University campus, known as the most beautiful of all the Universities. Numerous streams How thru the Campus in deep gorges and waterfalls, and this, together with the wonderful view of the valley and lake, have earned the campus its reputation. ln fact, the scenery of the surround- ing country is so remarkable and varied that a large moving picture concern has located a studio on the lake shore, and which incidentally af- fords a popular place to spend an afternoon, watching scenes filmed. The main buildings of the campus are grouped in the form of a huge quadrangle, and the new dormitories lie on the hill slope commanding a full view of the lake and town. These buildings contain the various colleges of the University, the most famous being the Engineering College and Chemistry, with the Law, Agri- cultural, Medical, Veterinary and Ar- chitectural Colleges all ranking among the best in the country. In evidence of the reputation Cornell has in the business world is the fact that at the present time 26 large firms have repre- sentatives here interviewing the seniors of the College of Mechanical Engin- eering in regard to positions after graduation in June. Along with the work athletics play a very important part, and Cornell is recognized as the all around inter- collegiate champion, winning this last year, for example, the championship in football, crew, track and a few others which l forget. The Cornell crews are so famous that they need no special mention, except that they have won I4 times out of Z2 at Poughkeepsie, and in that time have also made 5 clean sweeps there of all 3 races. Along with athletics comes drill, the Freshman's nightmare. In the Cornell Corps there are about l'700 drilling out of the University's total enrollment of 5500, and next year they plan to increase the number in the corp to over 3,000. Ithaca being a small town, the THE. TAI-IOMA 137 student activities and societies play a very important and necessary part, and there are some 63 fraternities, not including the sororities or honorary clubs and societies. Altogether, the situation is about ideal for a Univer- sity, and for any course or subject, one can hardly make a mistake in coming to Cornell, for the more one inquires and learns about the school, the more will one realize the rank it takes among the leading Univer- sities and the advantages it has to offer. Sincerely yours, GEORGE. S. LoNc '14 Q fc- VASSAR COLLEGE, POUGI-IKEEPSIE. N. Y.. Dear Stadium High: It seems an impossible task for me to try to tell you about Vassar: there is so much to say and I don't know which things you want most to hear. Altho I couldn't recommend it for all of your graduating class, I surely would for the feminine portion. This year has been an especially interesting one because of our cele- bration last fall of the fiftieth anni- versary of the founding of the col- lege. The Pageant of Athena being a series of incidents from the lives of famous women, was given in our natural out-of-door theatre by the students. The pageant was one of the most inspiring parts of the weeks of festivities and conferences that made up Fiftieth Just now the college is most beauti- ful, as is every place in the spring. The big athletic circle is in use all the time, either by basketball, base- ball or track team, and the tennis courts are no less popular. While We do not have intercollegiate athletics the interclass baseball games are as exciting and full of spirit and rivalry as any one could want them to be. Philadelphia is the name of our dramatic association, which presents live plays every year, three of which are called Major Hall plays, and are quite big events, and then two smaller ones, Minor Hall plays, in which only Freshmen and Sopho- mores can take part. Our one intercollegiate activity is debating. The big Trinagular De- bate between Wellesley, Holyoke and Vassar is one of the exciting and important events of the winter. There are two debating societies in college, so that everyone having any inclination towards debating is eagerly welcomed. The first two weeks in May are always full of characteristic celebra- tions and activities in the college. The events that come then are May day, last Major Hall play, Founcler's Play, which will this year cele- brate the Shakespeare and Cervantes anniversaries as well as that of the founding of the College, and Sopho- more Tree Ceremonies, at which the Sophomores get their marching song, for only upper classmen can ma.rch singing across campus. I seem to have spent so much time talking about the many fascinating non-academic activities that there isn't much space remaining in which to discuss the Academic work. But the Academic reputation of Vassar be- cause of its scholarly faculty, illus- trious alumnae and high standing with other colleges, is so well known that there doesn't seem any necessity of speaking further about it. There are very few people who come here who do not get inspiration and preparation for their future. Altho I have not told all I should have like to about our wonderful col- lege, I hope I have succeded in giving you some idea of the life and events here, as I know all the girls who really want to go to college would find Vassar an ideal place. Sincerely, DoRo'rHY DEMPSEY. I38 TI-IE T LINCOLN Although our alumni list is small, this being only our second year, the reports that we hear of those who have gone to other institutions of learning and out into the business world, fully make up for our lack of numbers. We hear interesting accounts of our representatives at the several colleges. Marie Cook, at U. of W., has set ahard pace for us to follow. Besides being busily engaged with social affairs, she has thus far kept an average of 92 in her subjects. This is especially en- couraging to some of usg for with diligent study and concentration, without the social side of college life, we are now entertaining hopes of at least passing. At Pullman, Mary Setzer, 'l5, is doing remarkably well. She has been recently appointed assistant matron of one of the dormitories and is also making good in her domestic science course. She is remembered as the winner of several prizes in the domestic science line while in high school. In the case of many of our alumni, after graduation has preparing for college future careers. Among Parker, Blanche Cum- Lowe and Kenneth of our prominent stu- the Hrst year been spent in or in deciding these, Howard mings, Bennie Bates, a few dents, are planning to join our ranks at the U. of W. next year. We expect to hear great things of them in the future. Hazel Bigby 'I5 has been en- AI-IOMA gaged as teacher for a school on Vashon Island for next year. By hard work, both summer and winter, year's course and one-half years. Olive bovee finishes also, bearing with her the same record. These girls are the first l... P. H. S. from Belling- she has completed two at Bellingham in one alumni to be graduated ham. Floyd Baker 'I5 is selling Hup- mobiles, at least, he is trying to amid all the class play rehearsals and his vocal lessons. He will take the part of Blondel in the l9l6 class play. Louise Stilke 'I5 is specializing in the Home Economics course at Pull- man. Katherine Firebaugh 'l5 tells that she is having a dandy time at Wellesley. We see mat she has not changed, for she will have a good time wherever she goes. Turley Therkildsen 'I5 is work- ing at the St. Paul Lumber Co. Frankie Wotton, Society Editor of 'l5 Tahoma, is studying art. Cur visitors this past month were Mildred Anderson, Margaret Hen- nessey, just home from her school, Anne Carpenter and Melvin Reilly. 'Q 'Q BLISSFUL News Saturday, May 20, Carl Knauff 'l5, was married to Margaret Mc- Queen, also a student of L. P. H. S. last year.

'Y 1 - i!l!!' l STADIUM As we leave old Stadium High this year, it is with that self-satisfying feeling of 'deeds accomplished, of work well done. When a person has done a thing well, when in the minds of others he is deserving of praise, he, too, is entitled to this opinion on the subject-and we do not ca.ll it conceit, eithe1'. It is only another example of that old Persian proverb: ul-le who knows and knows that he knows, is wise. Follow. him. And so this is the way we Seniors, especially those of us who have been interested in the Forum Club and De- bating in its many phases-and that is a large number of us-feel about this time. As we look back upon these four years spent in tSa.dium High, we realize that our record, while not an extraordinarily brilliant one, has, at least, been worthy of our school. Four years ago, as Fresh- men-timid, wary, but determinedd Freshies-we took our first stroll thru the unaccustomed halls of Stadium I-Iigh. And now, but a short four years since that time, as Seniors- capable, confident, but still determined Seniors-we walk for the last time thru those same familiar halls. Along this short pathway there are landmarks of our achievements, the good work done by the Forum Club, the winning of the Interclass Championship in our Junior year, and again in our Senior year, and most of all, the record of our Big Team. 'fb' 'Q' To THE JUNIORS We leave with those who will take our place as Seniors next year, the wish for success also, not brilliant- that kind doesn't last long-but stead- fast, glowing with futurity. We wish them good debaters, good debates, and good support. We cannot wish them more. fs Q THE FORUM CLUB We have all heard a lot about the Forum Club lately, thanks to the efficient management of our- president, Beatrice Wright. But there are a few who did not attend, and for their benefit we shall say: That the Forum Club had four impeachment trials. That in each case the teacher was successfully impeached . CThe jury was a tribunal of studentsj That Mr. Daniels was convicted of making Isabel McRae color-blind by the ex- cessive use of yellow slips. That Mrs. Varnes is now guilty of retard- ing the progress of civilization by 140 TI-IE TAI-IOMA teaching a dead language. That Miss Gibbonsi-retards the progress of her students by the shortness of her lessons and the slowness of her procedure. That Miss Alcott is guilty of assault and battery of Roy Muehlenbruch. Remember, the Forum Club will still live on without us next year. Q' Q LINCOLN -e This has been the most successful year of debating at Lincoln I-ligh. Last year Lincoln Park had only the State Team, which was of credit to the school. This year at Lincoln each class had two teams and there was a series of very interesting class de- bates which the Seniors came out of with colors flying at top mast. Be- sides having the class debates there was also a series of debates with the class teams of Stadium, from which Lincoln High came out of on top. 'Q' 'Q' Those that made the state team have high regards for the coach, as he was a hustler and kept them on the jump. 1 'sf 'Q Henry Cramer, the star debater of Lincoln, expects to go to the Uni- versity of Michigan next year to study law. We not only expect him to be a great law student, but we also expect to hear from him in debating. u Q Q The race next year for the honors as star debater will be between Robert Ellsworth and Marguerite Edgar. You will have to put on a little more speed, Robert, or Marguerite will beat you. 'Q' 'Q' Robert Ellsworth still has his fam- ous brush back, safe through all the worries of debating. Q Q, The debate for the championship of the two schools will be held near the first of June at Stadium High. The question is Resolved: That the Philippine Islands should be given their independence in five years. Lin- coln has the negative and Stadium the affirmative. 'Q' Q' The Senior team wish to thank Mr. Nesbitt for his faithful work with the team and wish him good luck next year. TI-IE TAI-IOMA 141 -:E - '55 ' i 5 .-E.

Your quarterly, splen- didly balanced with clean stories, vig- orous verse and articles and editorials on men and affairs, has this strangest, yet finest interest, of any of our contributers to the Exchange Depart- ment. Your exchanges, written by dif- ferent individuals fone to each maga- zinel of your Senior class is more thoughtful, therefore, of more value, than the usual department. The one note of bad taste was the favorable comments on your paper scattered, like obituaries, made prominent by heavy frames, thruout your dignified yet unpretentious literary department. i Q Q Shamokin l-ligh School Review, Shamokin, Pa.-The fad, which we see you have adopted, of printing on a loose leaf some prominent school gossip, the basket ball team in your case, evidently with the idea of al- lowing the adoring public this photo- graph to hang upon the wall or otherwise singularly honor, we con- tend is inconvenient and useless. In six months, it will be lost, if separated. If attached, it will remain forever with the magazine and, as many of us save the magazines, will always be on hand. If the copy is to be found, for example, with the rest of the year's numbers, what will become of the basket ball boys on the loose leaf? Also we would suggest that you scatter some jokes, as bait, among your advertisements. Your literary department is good. Your exchanges show thought and are appreciated. fs is The Sentinel, Daytona High School, Daytona, Florida-A splendid an- nual, well balanced and artistic is yours. Your stories show talent and training and it is a pity that your authors cannot, more often, appear in print. We were surprised to find that you numbered so few. Your paper led us to suppose you had a mass to support you and from which to draw your material. Is it a school custom for the boys to occupy the fore- ground whenever a picture is taken? -is -Q5 The Habit, Salinas High School. Salinas, Kansas-Your size, your print, your paper in every particular is model. Perhaps an enlargement of the story department and a verse or two might have taken the unpleasant tinge of commercialism from your sheet. We were charmed but dis- I42 THE TAI-IOMA pleased with Twelve Masked lllien of Madrid. Why did the author have to make it all a dream if not to get the hero out of the hole and that, we contest, is bad form. Aside from chaff, it is the best story of our April criticisms. Q Q The Eastern, Detroit Eastern High School, Detroit, Mich.-The idea of a contest in the writing of stories, poetry and the making of drawings for your paper is most successful, judging from results. Tho your poetry is not inspired, perhaps, still it, and all the rest, are more studied, more earnest than if they had been solicited and begged for. Q Q The Salem Oak, Salem High School, Salem, Ore.-The size of your paper, the print and the arange- ment is anything but attractive. You repel the reader who is a stranger. Doubtless, with your own exchange, you know how an utterly foolish. meritless paper you will read thru because of the print and the shape and quality of the pages. It is a shame that you do not make your worth more apparent. We were grat- ified to find you taking an interest in politics and civic affairs. After all, your readers are more interested in Prohibition or Mexico than in the class election, or if not, at least they should be and so you are serving an educational purpose. fb 'Q' The Opinion, Peoria, Illinois, is an attractive little Daper. You're a jolly bunch of students: We have only to look at jokes to see that. Eleven pages of an Athletic Depart- ment is Ngoing some. If there were more magazines with a large Exchange Department like yours we would not have to worry about not receiving school papers. The Outlook, Pawhuska, Okla- homa-'We think white paper would make your magazine neater and more attractive, and it would look less mixed up if it had distinct depart- ment headings. Your authors are original and in- teresting. The faculty ought to feel honored by having an edition dedi- cated to them. Q Q, The Omnibus, Franklin, Penn. -The cover .design almost convinced us that we had come upon a comic paper: we quickly changed our mind, however, on looking further. We agree with the editorial-your Sophomores are exceptionally clever. They should be commended for the splendid issue. Q' fs The Easter number of The Nug- get, Lead, South Dakota, ought to be appreciated by the student body. The neat arrangement of departments deserves honorable mention, as it is one of the essentials of a good paper. There is one thing lacking, though- a table .of contents. We missed the poems.

The department headings are decidedly original. Q' 'sf The Polarisf' Minneapolis, is a new exchange on our list. In regard to that first editorial: We're glad to see you have punch enough to stand up for your paper- it's worth it. The inside facts of the war given in that letter were inter- esting.

Q setiiiiw h .. t V I I I l W STADIUM the football championship and were After another busy season in the annals of sport the time comes again when many of our old friends always consistent in bringing home the bacon will make way and leave their stacks of laurels to be regained by some younger aspirant. They say Every dog has its clay. That's true, and our case is no exception. We realize we've had our day, yet now that it's all over We wish we had not had our day and had the whole ex- perience to live over again. ln the class of 1916 are many men who have set up enviable records in his line of sport and their records will not be forgotten, nor are we idly boasting we have the stuff and we've done it fair and square. The Class of l9l6 has won almost everv laurel that can be won on the athletic field. Pardon us if we seem egotistic, but the past records of the athletes ofthe class of I9I6 of the Stadium High School prove this and show the merit they deserve. First we go back to the days when we were wee Freshi-es. How hope- lessly we were c-utclassed, that- is, from the Senior's point of view, but nevertheless, we romped away' with not scored on during the series. When we were Juniors we handed the Sen- iors the same sour pill and held our form throughout our Senior year, in all, annexing three football champion- ships. Paul Shager, Forest Gillihan, l red Gilbert, Joe Crumb and Robert Reehling were members of these teams throughout the complete four years. For the past two seasons the bas- ketball men of the Senior team, head- ed by Dukes Tonneson, Wesley Gor- don, Fred Gilbert, Pat Murphy and Fritz Geiger have brought the honors home to the Senior class. In baseball the Senior class has also been most successful. Last year under the leadership of Paul Shager the Seniors won the baseball cham- pionship and were not scored on during the season, snowing under the Senior class at that time with a whole shower of runs and taking the other classes down in a like order. We would have done the same thing this year had it not been for the shortness of the season. In the track and field events the Seniors have also been supreme. The long list of the Senior track stars TI-IE TAI-IOMA 145 includes the famous Fred Gilbert, Don Griffith, Dukes Tonneson, Lemuel Wingua'rd and Fritz Geiger. Mainly by the consistent work of these vet- erans the Senior class has been able to romp away with the Interclass Meet and also the Dual Meet, held with the aspiring track men of the Junior division. It might also be mentioned that Joe Crumb, of the present Sen- ior Class, has held the school cham- pionship for wrestling for the past two seasons, and added the Pierce County Championship to his string of victories. It is sometimes assumed that a Senior Class has a right to win on account of the superior training and experience, but when we look them all over we find that We often had the ihandicap, so without apology we give our old reliable heroes the praise they deserve. Q Q TRACK The track season this year at the Stadium has shown the old stars clipping the seconds off their old marks in order to keep pace with the new material coming in. Among the veterans who have shown exceptionally good form are Victor Morgan, Dukes Tonneson, Don Grifhth, Fritz Geiger and Harrison Clark. A number of the dark horsesn are blames Pratt, Lemual Winguard, John Boles, Tom Crumb and Newman White. Win- guard is a Senior and has shown him- self to be one of the most promising athletes ever turned out at the local institution. In the class meets so far held the Seniors have had a shade the ad- vantage of the other classes in the score column. The Freshmen defeat- ed the Sophomores in their meet by a score of 75 to 42. However, the Sophomores did pretty well, con- sidering that Stone and Landstrom were the only men who entered for them. ln the Senior-Junior meet the Seniors were victors by a score of 69 to 48. In the free for all class meet the Seniors were also victors by a score of 61 to 53 for the Juniors. The Sophomores won three points, while the Freshmen were let down with the onesided score of nothing. 'Q-'Q' SENIORS 69, JUNIORS 48 Results of the Junior-Senior meet: 50-yard dash - Winguard first.

'ibibf BASEBALL The baseball season has been a rather unsuccessful as well as an un lucky one for the Stadium team. Lincoln seems to have th-e edge on us in the baseball line, though we cannot attribute this fact to Coach Post, who has been heart and soul in the work ever since the season began. The first game of the series was a very hard one on the records of the Stadium pitchers. Coach Post used every man he had on hand and then thought that he would have to run in a Northwestern Leaguer to stop the awful swatfest that was being staged by Lincoln Park. The final score was thirteen to nothing, with Lincoln TI-IE TAI-IOMA I47 on the long end. In all they gathered about I7 safe swats from the Stadium slab artists. For the southsiclers Stub Nelson was the whole show. Nelson went into the box on the absence of the regula.r pitcher and held the Stadium- ites to one measly hit, which was pro- cured after much labor by Lemuel Winguard. Earl Coen, playing for Lincoln, got a whole raft of safe bingles and was the star of the game. Robert Boyd, for the Stadium team, played a mighty good game in the field. Larsen, who ofliciated the first live innings on the mound, was found at leisure by the Lincoln Park batsmen and was relieved by Dottener. Dot- tener stuck it out for a couple of innings, then Wallacker took up the burden. Wallacker was unable to get an out against the Lincolnites and Joe Crumb, who won a couple of games from the Southsiders last year, was rushed in. Crumb held them safe the remainder of the game. But at that Lincoln had I3 runs, so she should worry.

The final score was I9 to 5, and at all stages of the game they had the contest well in hand. The Lincoln force began bombarding Smoky Joe Crumb in the Hrst inning, and never ceased their cannonading until that luckless person was jerked in the eighth. Crumb's support was very erratic. his inheld weakening several times. Lincoln hit well but fielded poorly. Lincoln Park scored in the first on some good hits and on Shager's throwing to the bases. Stadium came back and scored their first run in the second on an error, a hit and a fieldefs choice. Lincoln staged a rally in the third and when the smoke had cleared seven tallies had counted. Neither side scored until the sixth. In this inning Sta- dium shoved over three runs on ac- count of errors and' by timely hitting. I48 THE TAI-IOMA In the seventh the Lincoln heavy artillery was brought into play and the Stadiumites had a merry time shagging Hies. Anderson drove one for four bags to show that he has not lost his eye. Baldwin replaced Crumb, but he could not suppress the Lincoln team. Nelson pitched good ball for Lincoln, but his sup- port was weak. Skahan had the batting honors of the day.
