Came they shyly, came they hold, Some young in years, some rather old, T0 the sandstone building,towered and spired, Renowned for wisdom there acquired. As trod they now that sacred ground, In wonder deep they gazed around On Seniors, boastful, vain and haughty, On Juniors, mirthful, carefree, naughty, On Sophs twho one short year before Were green as they now joined to score The Freshies for simplicity, And at their actions howl with glee. These venturers in high school life, Embarkers 0n the sea of strife, Who trembling stepped within the door, Were you and I, one-nine-one-four. How well remember we that day When heart and soul of ours did pray That we commit n0 blunder, and Thereby escape a wrothy hand. Upstairs they sent us, to the hall, Where pictures hung upon each wail; We saw them not, we only thought Of what might pass should we be caught Aedoing something we ought not. And each oneis name was called, forsooth, To which the luckless maid 01' youth, Arising, must, before that crowd, Give answer, Presentf right out loud. Then teachers punned upon the name, And smiled at all our eiforts lame. Ah! but what relief was ours, When, graciously, the ruling powers Enlivened us with words like these, You may go home; pasg quietly, please? We left the building, towered and spired, Refreshed by knowledge there acquired, Which we must share with every friend Page Ten Who, to our tale his ear would lend. If older, smiles came in reply, If younger, wonder-opened eye. The days departed, one by one, And, step by step, we learned the run Of things in life at Walnut Hills, A life quite fraught with fears and thrills. How every forty minutesT time A period was, not oft sublime. We grew to answer HSir instead Of itMa'am ; quite firmly fixed in head Where room fifteen was sure to he, Who taught us Lit and Botany, Though still we iioundered Tout at sea? Anon there came the direful day e Demerits dread beset our way; Shuddering, we prepared to die, But 10! we flew not to the sky! We learned to chase the bugs and label Them as well as we were able; We fell the prey of B and C And sat in tubs unwillingly. To Caesar we were introduced; TTwas that or Dutch, so whats the use? We found the ttxt in Algebra, And mixed with ttElo in dread fray. Then once a Senior, brave and bold, The virtues of The Gleam extolled, Requesting pieces of our gold. A few subscribed. a rabble read; We hate to knock, but truth is said. Through Irving's eyes we England viewed; With Bryant friendship we renewed; Page Eleven We read of fair Evangeline Mid Acadieis primeval scene; With Oberon, Titania, and The mischief Puck, we danced in hand; The Gold Bug cypher we did trace, Then wondered at the Great Stone Face; Till one day came examination, The herald of great j 0y, vacation. Two months and more passed by before We stepped again within that door, But then how changed our actions were, Appearance, too; we all concur In saying itwas a reformation Befitting higher education; From freckled Freshies, frightened, green, T0 sweet ttC girls, not quite sixteen, To noble youths with brow serene. Once more we wrestled with our work tBut never lost a chance to shirki ; That German, Latin, English stuff Annoyed us wieder; ,twas enough, But with it came tah, misery D The specter, Plane Geometry; While History its best did try To make it clear to us just why The Greeks and Romans climbed so high. We understood enough to pass; 01' course, that is, most of the class. Of Roderick Dhu and Malcolm Graeme, 01 Ellen fair, whom each would claim As his fair prize, and of the strife This Lady of the Lake made rife, We read. The tale of Rosalind And her brave knight, Orlando, in The Arden Forest, tneath whose shade The duke his outlawed force arrayed; The death of Caesar, friend of all The Latin students thear tem bawll , His slayers, tthonorable men, Who ttstuek him through, and stabbed again; The Cities TWO, With dreadful tale 0f love and hate, of song and wail, The Maker of Shoes recalled to life, The ominous knitting, the sway of knife And gun o'er disregard of right, The echoing footsteps in the night; All this our minds full ably bore; Till Daniel Webster took the fioor, And then we tumbled in a hurry; That guys a reg,lar dicshunnurry. Enough to smother all the nation, The words adorning that oration. To Bunker Hill we bid adieu, Then next in line was one who knew Our burdens, and his sympathy Applied; with him we all agree, When from his heart leaped forth this tune: HOh what so rare as a day in June? It filled us with a breath of life, Beyond the wanted schoolroom strife. Then while we dreamed, why June was nigh, Green was the grass, and blue the sky; And with those blessed perfect days, Came freedom and our own sweet ways. A second time our clan returned, For still we had not all things learned ; And this, our J unior year, revealed Our excellence in every field Of usual school endeavor, for In brain and brawn the prize we bore. Already some had in The Gleam Expressed their thoughts in varied theme. But now, for fact and fancy, jest And jingle, all of them confessed That our way came they for the best. But mention also must be had Of the most charming poster lad, And them Who chased the mocking ad. Then Football, Baseball, Track did claim Our energies, as seasons came; While some upon the platform paced And for debating honors raced. Of course those lessons stayed with us, Es macht nichts aus how hard we fussed; Two added tongues ,peared on the scene, Both French and Spanish, and the mean 01d Algebra, and after him 01d Trigonometry, his kin. Then History, and Physics, joy Of every little girl and boy. In Lit, 0h say, it was a time Of feasting in both prose and rhyme; Were we distinguished by great strides? Well, much can be said on both sides,U As 01d Sir Roger quaintly said When into great decisions led. The theft of sweet Belindats hair Page Twelve Did much, we fear, our girls to scare For all us ttfellers sure got on To what makes beautyethis aintt con. The darkness fell on Auburn sweet; The weary Christiants patient feet Trod the tortuous narrow way, As we ourselves, from day to day. Good Doctor Primrose, shepherd true, Described his life, of comforts few; Then Tam 0' Shanter raced his mare Thorough the misty midnight air; The Chillon captive, Ivanhoe, And Johnson, soon we came to know. HThere was an ancient mariner, And Lorna, with her John Ridd, Sir; And then the little maid of Devon Who ever answered, We are seven? On January ninth at morn Excitement great our way was borne; You see it came about this way, Our school caught fire upon that day. They rang the bell; we all filed out, The most in wonder whafs about; But oh! the horror in our looks, When told the fuel was Latin books! Though really itwas a funny sight To see the Seniors in their might charrying pails of water bright. The engines came with lots of noise; They dragged a hose in through the boys. But Cap yelled out, ttMen, shut ter off; I put it out with my little cough. The cops came after all was cinched; Page Thirteen Jiggel's, fellows, the house is pinched. Thus did we prove to our desire How brave we stand up under lire. The A-B dance, the Red Corn Feast, Arrived and fied; while winter ceased Its sway, and gentle spring assumed Her place, and soft her song she crooned, Whereat uThe heart with rapture thrills And dances with the daffodils? Ourselves we found the ruling powers, T0 Seniors raised m the school was ours. 'Twas here at last, the day of grace Ton Which our class took up the mace, Affairs of school to supervise, To have some fun While looking Wise. Itts surely been just one grand rush With sometimes planks and sometimes plush, But imid the hurly-burly strife, Wetve had the time of our young life; While making ready for the rough, Unyielding life of sterner stuff That lies before us, dark, unknown, Where earnest labor gains a throne. The handclasp and the hugging der, We gayly stepped within the door, For this, our last at Walnut Hills, Had lost the terrors and the thrills 0f Freshman year, but found instead A love of school unmixed With dread; And yet down deep in every heart Though from our school we hate to part, There is a gladness tcause wetre through And Tom us lies a life quite new. Of all this yearts astounding work, Of Shakespeare, Milton, Chaucer, Burke, Of Latin, German, History, Of Spanish, French, and Chemistry, We Will not speak; wetve only just Removed their disconcerting dust. Of actions in and tbout the school, Since our way came the right to rule, ,Twere better that you all refer T0 ande'rn page, the Calendar. HOWARD LAWLESS, 14.

It was a hard blow to their pride to step from the throne of the grammar school to the low and menial position of D Graders, lorded over by the Sophomore, tolerated by the Juniors, and absolutely ignored by the Seniors. But this particular band of seek- ers after knowledge were of hardy stock and survived the stormy sea of the D Grade so successfully that the following September found them Iordly Sophomores, and one rung higher on the ladder of learning. Ah, Sophomores! and such a change in the appearance of that noble group! Pig- Pag: Fifty-Eve tails had vanished. Loud and flashy ties and socks made their debut. Here and there ap- peared a budding athlete or a literary genius, and some even sought fame 0n the football field, and were actually recognized by the Seniors. But, hush! quite a number de- veloped astonishing nerve and attended the annual Boat Ride. Taken altogether, things were much improved, life was well worth living and it was With eager anticipation that all looked forward to the coming Junior year. Tango shirts, hats with feathers in them, tight skirts, mincing steps and dainty coif- fures, marked the third epoch of exterior changes as this sturdy aggregation gained the third rung of the ladder. Now all he- comes chaos e dances, boat rides, lessons and all passing so swiftly that it is with a gasp that the last rung in the ladder of learning is perceived almost within reach above the dust of the whirling tumult. May the com- ing year witness the same march toward bet- ter things as the last three years have wit- nessed, and may each member of the Class of 1915 so conduct himself that in future life he may look back with pleasure upon these the golden days of youth.

Everything was new and strange. The novel method of distributing classes, the new teachers, the new rules, and the building itself, with which we were un- acquainted, involved us in an unfathomable mystery. Some were discouraged, and the al- ternate billows of hope and despair rose high. From this predicament we were gradually rescued by our patient teachers. Our sur- roundings became familiar, and our duties apparent, while our groundless apprehen- sions marvelously vanished. Feeling that we had conquered, we undertook our regular routine of work with a will. Only one source Page Fifty seven of dread remained ethe frequent threats and violent actions of the upper classmen, who seemed to us unnecessarily hostile. But soon our confidence returned, and then our sole ambition was to rise from our humble rank and become glorious C Graders. That cherished hope we have now realized. We have left the days of our childhood and a new era has dawned for us. We must each be a vital factor in our present school life, setting a good enough example for our little brothers of the D Grade, and at the same time preparing ourselves to uphold the honor of our school both in its intellectual and in its physical contests 0f the future. As our scholarship has advanced, so also has our ambition, which now soars into the hazy distance of the A Grade, and hovers over the final graduation day. The pursuit of our ideals may lead up a pathway that is rough and rocky, but with Toil as our guide we can not fail to attain the coveted goal of Success, which our older brothers of the A Grade have already reached. T0 the Senior Class we wish to extend our hearty congratu- lations for the splendid manner in which they have sustained the reputation of our school, and to assure them that our fondest hope is that in the years to come we may follow worthily in their steps.

Many of them are very rude, but a pleasant smile and a cheerful word will melt the coldness of their arrogant man- ner. We can sympathize with these older pupils, since they have experi- enced the same embarrassing situa- tions and hardships that we have en- dured. But we D Graders, though humble, E, the pupils of the D Grade, arrived at Walnut Hills High School one bright September morning, feeling very strange ' t and bashful. We will admit that during the first week of our high school life we felt very much out of place and that many humorous and trying experiences were ours. But we bore them bravely e we lived through the strife w and now we are floating peacefully along the quiet latter half of the school year. Strange to say, we find the Seniors very obliging. They have finally descended from their haughty throne, and, discarding for- mality, treat us with intelligence that ap- pears almost human. Page Fifty-nin: '5 are not wanting in ambition, and if we proht by the training received at Walnut Hills High School, we may perhaps some day become great musicians, renowned artists, or even famous poets. We hope that the record that we leave behind us this year Will serve as an inspira- tion and an encouragement to the future pupils of the Freshman Class. The road of life lies before us, unob- structed. Every day, every hour, every minute, we are working e striving to realize higher ideals. Perhaps you Seniors will ask, Little D Graders, what are your ideals? Our ready answer isecharacter, success and culture. RUTH G.

AFTER HIGH SCHOOL WHAT? Considerable canine?! was caused in un- rious circles by the table publixhed in THE GLIHM hat month, wherein the Seniors sigi nihed what they would probably be doing next year According to the hgurec. many of the class will mntinue their studies and altenrl colleges, the boys scaltcring to various inxtllu- tions far and wide. and the girls. for the most part, going to the L'nivcraity of Cincinnati. These decisions are not, of course. Fmal; in fact, many of the students have changed their minds already. It is indeed a serious question that must be decided, one upon which the whole course of life may possibly depend. Perhaps you say you've learned enough. you're tired of schoel, and now you want In get Dul and do something. That desire to make a place for yourself as commendable; but relied upon this. There is a vast a'uount to learn in thls world, and really, as yet wu've gotten SO very little of it. A little learning is :1 dan- gerous thing, and knowledge, although some times difficult to ohtain. is power Ignorance is bliss ; but a fool is blissful. and who wants to he a fool? So, bcfore quitting school, think hard; examine all the possibilities, are what is offered you, listen to the suggestiom of tlvuu who are older and who have thaln-selves faced that very problem Study the offerings of the different'places of learning; seize the chances for investigation such as 1mm offered by Yale to Cincinnati high-schonl students and which is told about in this issuc. The one great objection raised against going to COHEge is the expense which is incurred. lt docs mst considerable money, but, opposed to your career in lifel it stands insignificant. Perhaps the folks at home can not possibly spate it. that of that? A great body nf college students are earning their own way through; there are various wan of acconr plishing that end. Work can be secured that will not interfere with the studies: the long snl'umer vacations can he profitably employed. Instances of such opportunities can be Cited everrwhere: in this issue of THE CLEAM ii one hfl'er of summer work, Bear in mind the matte of the Class of '14. Yield not to mis- fortunes. but advance all the more boldly against them. THE GLEAM AM W; A school paperts a great invention, The Stow? gets all the fame, The primer gets the money, And the Editor the blame. , HE name of the one Who origin- ' ated the above jingle is un- the common property of all school papers for years. From the sentiment expressed, we might infer that an editor was the author eprobably the first editor of the first school paper. This does not appear at all unlikely to the writers. The Gleam embarked upon the nineteenth year of its existence with a 1arg'e and capable Staff, willing to work, and loyal in their sup- port of the Editor. A high standard was set, and everyone labored faithfuly to main- tain it. Although the ideal was not reached, as is the case with every project of any worth, the paper sustained the enviable repu- tation established and preserved during the preceding years. It was eminently success- ful, both from a literary and from a business standpoint. The paper is now to pass into the hands of others, and we, Who have conducted it this year, extend to them our best wishes for as great a good time as we have enjoyed in managing it. Page Sixty-Eight w 4.0 man moves in so exalted or so 1i low a plane of life, but that his 'i character and personal influence i have some effect, either for good or for evil, on those with whom he comes in contact. The personal influence of some people steals upon you unconsciously and With irresistible force, and casts its be- neiicence along the perplexing paths of life, j ust as gentle zephyrs, passing over flowery meads, bring sweet fragrance to everyone who comes within their sphere. Cast a pebble into the ocean and it causes waves to go on in ever-widening circles. Touch 2. heart with some little word or deed of kind- ness and you start in motion a wave of human sympathy which shall spread until it becomes impossible to reckon the amount of good it has done or the number of lives it may inhuence. The power of the personal touch is almost unlimited. If the motive which prompts its use is pure, it will smooth the way, in any vocation or walk of life for the accomplish- ment of greater and better things. Perhaps nowhere has it a more benign and satisfactory exercise than in the business world. The wise business man knows that Page sixty-nin: his profits will show a larger increase if the work is done by men and women who bring heart service as well as body service to their labor; men and women who are devoted to the interests of their employer, and who are constantly planning to improve the condi- tions of his line of business. The personal touch is also a potent factor in the administration of civic alfairs. When the mayor in power sinks self and political ambitions for the good of his office, and con- ducts the business of the city in such a man- ner as to make the citizens feel that they are in a co-partnership with the executive, and that all are working harmoniously and ener- getically for the good of the community, he will reach that plane of efiicient and adequate service, to attain Which should be his one ambition, his soul-stirring desire. But in order to win the cooperation of the masses, the mayor must come into personal touch with the people of the city. He must attend as many of their neighborhood welfare and mass meetings as his other duties will per- mit; he must find out just what they need and desire most, and then choose the course which to him shall seem most indicative of wisdom and justice. Let him, in his rela- tions with his subordinates, infuse into their minds that sympathy of service which he himself feels for the public welfare, and through their agency he will do more to in- fluence the conduct and general policy of the city than by all the tistump speechesil and charlatanry of political demagogues. The solution of the immigration problem requires the personal infiuence of every right- minded individual. It has been said that iithe eradication of a vice is the implantation of a Virtue. So we must get down beside the immigrant, find out his virtues and his Vices; eradicate the vice and thereby implant the virtue in its stead; discover which of his national accomplishments we may assimilate into our own national life, what traits it would be advisable to eliminate from his character, and what elements of our high education and civilization would benefit him most. It is, above all, expedient that We cause him to feel that we are personally in- terested in his struggle for existence and for a social standing in the community, and that we realize that he is human, and that his joys and sorrows may be the same as our own. Then, and not till then, will this per- plexing problem be solved. Nowhere has the magnetism of the per- sonal touch been more clearly exemplified than in the lives of some of the great men of the world. Napoleon Bonaparte was hated and despised by all the courts of Europe, yet he was greatly beloved by his army. Europe saw only the ambitious general; the army, the comrade, the intrepid soldier. He made himself one of them, sat around their camp- fires, listened to their stories, and showed a never-failing interest in any achievement which raised itself a little above the ordinary. Hence, they became oblivious to all his fail- ings and serious faults, and saw in him only the Victorious commander, and imbibed from him that unfiinching courage which enabled them to follow him unquestioningly into the jaws of death. Abraham Lincoln, who has shed a brighter luster 0n the annals of history than any statesman of ancient or modern times, pos- sessed to a marked degree that Hone touch of natureit which ilmakes the whole world kin? When elected to the presidency, with that elimination of self and that burning patriotism which characterized the whole of his great and glorious career, he appointed William H. Seward this opponent for the Re- publican nominationl and Colonel Edwin M. Stanton to the first positions of his cabinet, because he saw that their services would be invaluable to the country which he so dearly loved and for which a few years later he gave the last full measure of devotion. They had never before come into actual per- sonal relationship with Mr. Lincoln, and they considered him only as an inferior states- man. They were of the opinion that they could guide the ttship of state to suit their own policies without giving any considera- tion to Mr. Lincoln. But when they came Page Seventy into close contact with the invincible courage and well-balanced mind of the President, they saw the utter folly of adopting such a course, and became two of his most devoted follow- ers. It was the personal influence of the Hmaurtyreol Presidentii which caused Mr. Stanton, when mourning at the bier of the first American? to exclaim, uNow he be- longs to the ages! It was his personal touch, coupled with his absolute integrity, his adamantine courage and his heart of al- most feminine tenderness which causes the name of Abraham Lincoln to linger lovingly 0n the lips and in the hearts of his country- men. Besides these there is a list of names of men and women of every nation and period, men and women from the high and from the low stations of life, whose success has been due largely to a tactful application of the personal touch. Among the names in this list there appear not only such familiar ones as those of Washington, Livingston and Roosevelt, all great men, but also that of the greatest of all meneJesus of Nazareth. It is the personal touch of the public school Page chcnty-onc teachers of America that has brought our schools to such a high state of eHiciency, that they are second to none in the world. The successful teacher leads his pupils to believe that he is interested in them individually; in their successes, and failures, too, and that he realizes all the joys and pangs of school life. Not only has the teacher the privilege of planting the seeds of knowledge in the ductile brain of youth, but also, by precept and example, he may inspire in their bosoms. patriotism, honesty, integrity and all the other attributes which go to make the true American. Now we are about to set sail on the sea of life. Therefore, let us be true to the high standards of honesty and integrity of the business world; let us he true to the patriot- ism and legacies of honor bequeathed to us by our forefathers; but, above all, let us be true to ourselves. And if we do this we shall leave our God-given inheritance of righteous- ness and freedom unstained by our personal touch, and touristsfyfisiting our country will write home to their friends, ttCome, see the land which the Lord hath blessed!

Captain Gaither started 7 . out with only six players from the team of 1912, and with about twenty in- experienced candidates he turned out a team which was a credit to the school. The team, being light and fast, was almost always handicapped by muddy, slow fields. The sea- son as a whole was a success, and when the size of our school is considered our record of two defeats and four victories is quite formi- dable. WALNUT HILLS, 74WFRANKLIN, 0. Walnut Hills and Franklin met at Nor- wood Inn on Friday, October 10. Soon after the whistle blew it was evident that Franklin was no match for our team, but nevertheless our opponents fought heroically throughout the entire game. Captain Gaither tried many of his new men in this game WALNUT HILLS, 56 - MIDDLETOWN, 0 Accompanied by Mr. Crane, the team jour- neyed to Middletown, prepared for a hard a'gehk ummw JKhKKLMW , F OOTBALL ex. 1 I .Mt th battle. Captain Gaither did not play, be- cause of an injury received in the Franklin game. Middletown held Walnut Hills to three touchdowns in the first half, but in the second half our team scored at will. This was without doubt one of the cleanest and fairest games of the season. WALNUT HILLS, 6 e MIAMI MILITARY INS., 0. On Saturday, October 25, Walnut Hills, accompanied by Mr. Henshaw and Mr. Crane, went to Germantown to play the Mi- ami Military Institute. The soldier boys Were over-conhdent because of their victory over Walnut Hills the year before, and were greatly surprised when they found that they could not gain through our line at all. When there were only two more minutes to play, the M. M. I. team, led by their coach, left the field because of a dispute. The entire game was marred by disagreements among the players and arguments with the omcials. WALNUT HILLS, 12 w WOODWARD, 6. Walnut Hills and Woodward met at Carson Field on Friday, October 31, in the hrst con- test for the interscholastic championship. Page Seventy-eight The field as usual was muddy which was somewhat of a handicap to the wearers 0f the red and grey, as they were considerably lighter than the Woodward boys. Woodward started off in a rush and made a touchdown in the first five minutes of play, but Walnut Hills got busy and tied the score in the first half and won out in the second half. The teams were very evenly matched and the en- tire game was hard fought. WALNUT HILLS, 7 w Noswoov, 14. Walnut Hills played Norwood at the Nor- wood Ball Park on Friday, November 14, the game being undoubtedly the most disap- pointing 0f the Whole season. Both of Nor- wood's touchdowns were made on lucky fum- bles which were the result of another muddy field. Walnut Hills gained twice as much ground as Norwood, but just seemed to he doomed to lose. The crowd insisted upon swarming 0n the held, which was a great handicap to both teams. WALNUT HILLS, 0 e HUGHES, 20. After being postponed twice, the Walnut Hills-Hughes game was finally played at Car- son Field on Tuesday, November 18. Each school was well represented by rooters, the seats on both sides being filled, while several hundred spectators were standing. The held was a sea of slippery, sticky mud, which was ankle-deep, and the game should have been again postponed. The condition of the field was a decided advantage for the heavy Page Seventy-nine Hughes eleven, which averaged about fifteen pounds more than our team. Although Wal- nut Hills was beaten, the game was not so one-sided as the score would seem to indicate, and might have had a different outcome had the game been played on a fast, dry field. CARL MITCHELL. Members of the Team AL GAITHER, the captain and left half of the Foot Ball Team, was llsome captain. He was always on your trail; you just couldnt get out of practice with Gaith on the job. At practice, instead of telling you what he wanted done, he would get out and show you. iiDer Captain was one of our best ground gainers, and a l'bearil on the defense. COSTELLO, right half, starred in almost every game. Although the Irishmanii was not as heavy as the average player, he used his speed and agility to good advantage. He was a sure, fast tackler and always gained ground on his long end-runs. TOM GAITHER, fullback, did all of the ttskull-draggingjl and iltook care of it'l with the greatest of ease. Tommy hit the line harder, and gained more ground, than any fullback on an opposing team, and in the game with Hughes he proved that he was in a class by himself. We all wish him success as captain next year. RED KRUECK was wished on us by Woodward, and what a pleasure it would be if they had a few more like him to give away! He ran the team well and could always be de- pended on to gain those last few yards on a quarter-back buck. He was a iine tackler and his continual talk kept the team on edge. STATLER, right tackle, used his strength and gym-team ability to perfection in Hhold- ing down his position. Very seldom did a play get by him and many a play did he help out by making a hole in the opposing line. Deaconit was a player that would not give up. MITCHELL, left end, played full time in every game this year, as he did in every game last year. tiMitchii was one of the fastest ends that Walnut Hills ever turned out. He was great at breaking up interference and getting forward passes. SWEENEY, left guard, showed what can be accomplished in football by a boy, who, even though inexperienced, is willing to work and learn. Although he got a late start, Army Dog played :some football in every game, no one being of more assistance to the team. CARR, right guard, was never sensational, but was always on the job. Carr played a good, steady and dependable game the Whole season. He Will be a great help to next years team. HABEKOTTE, center, the good old Dutch- man, held down his position to perfection. Dutcht was always Krpulling oiftt some com- edy stunt, but aside from this, he could itun- cork some fine football-playing. He was considered by many the best center in the city. KINKER, right end, didnit start to play reg- ularly until late, but he certainly made up for lost time. He became famous at German- town, where he scored our only touchdown. SCHUR, guard, showed up very well in all of the games that he played. He was a great assistance to the team throughout the entire season. JUERGENS, end, put up a fine game his first year, considering his size. He is very speedy and can show the best of them his heels. He will fit in nicely next year. BYARD, quarter, lasted only a very short time, but he showed gameness, and deserves a lot of credit for coming out at all, because, you must remember, there is not much to Dock? LEW ROTH, quarter, did not get much of a chance to show his ability, but, being fast and pretty solid, he will show up well next year. SIMPKINSON, end, gave promise of becom- ing a star when it was necessary for him to give up practicing. Here's hoping he can play next year. ROUGHNECK,, DAVIS played almost every- thing this year, and there is no telling what he will play next year. He ought to make good in the backfield. CARL MITCHELL.

How gladly we tripped up to the Gym every morning before school for real practice, and at recess for amusement. How will- ingly we paid our fifty cents dues, thinking how reasonable that amount was for the privilege of belonging to the team for the long period of four years. How many bumps and bruises we got that hrst year because of our awkward manipulation of the apparatus. How we gazed with rapture and admiration at the demonstrations of the up- per classmen who were more experienced than we in ttswinging and ttchinning. In the Sophomore year we were given a great privilege. We were invited to partici- pate in the election, where we elected a J un- ior for Manager and a Senior for Captain of the team. In the same year we were given first place at the head of the line in claSS work, and were called upon by Dr. Knoch to show how to do the exercises properly. But we had lost some of the members who had entered with us, these having dropped out because of. the strenuous work required of the team. In our Junior year we again had the de- lightful task of voting for one of our own classmates for Manager. This honor fell to Myra Winkler, one of our most ardent mem- bers. We now began to take extra hours of Gym besides our regular two periods a week. All our spare study bells we went in and ttshowed 011' before the classes. In our Senior year a great calamity befell us. The authority of bossing the team, which had formerly always been a Senior's privi- lege, fell to a Junior girl. But nevertheless we enjoyed the work, and graduated with a feeling that we had accom- plished something during our four years of school life. M. W. Page Eighty-six e- HE prospects for another win- , ning track-team were very bright at the beginning of the year, as all but two members, l Davidson and Babbitt, were back at school. Ellis Foote had also returned, which would have partly made up for the loss of Davidson and Babbitt had he Hstuck it out, but he quit as usual about the middle of the year. Things still looked very bright un- til the mid-winter carnivals came around, when three of our best track-men, Capt. Stat- ler, Costello and Krueck, were ruled out by the interscholastic board for running on a church relay-team. Although this ruling seemed rather stiff at the time, when you think it over it was the only thing to be done, as the rule is there and must be observed. The team was further crippled by the loss of several other valuable members, who were kept out because of low averages. On March 7 the team competed in the in- door meet given by the C. A. A. F., and did well to come out third, considering its crip- pled condition. The little midgets, of whom there were only eleven to be found in our entire school, succeeded in coming in third in the relay race. Page EIEhty-seven TRACK TEAM lg. The juniors made the best Showing, winning their relay race after a very interesting and close contest. The relay team consisted of Matz, Horst, Fry, Davis, Chatelier, and Juer- gens. Juergens won second in the 50 yard and the 220 yard junior. Stevens came in third in the 440 yard junior and could have done much better had he ttlet out sooner. In the senior events Blackburn grabbed second in the 440 yard and third in the 50 yard dashes, and would have done much bet- ter had he not been tripped on the turn in the 220 yard, injuring his leg. Mitchell won the 60 yard low hurdles in good time. Costello came hrst in the pole vault, but was disqual- ihed. Blackburn and Mitchell also took part in the big open meet given by the C. A. A. F. on March 14, Blackburn winning the 440 yard tnovicel , and getting second in the 220 yard tnovicel . Mitchell won the 60 yard low hur- dles tnovicel. The next big track events will be the meet at Miami University on May the 9th and the meet to be given by the Cincinnati University on the last Friday in May. Herets to the success of the few that will be eligible to compete. CARL MITCHELL. Track Team Page Eighty-eight TRACKTEAM I sun.rnm, OFFICERS CARL MITCHELL . A . . ......... ., ..

' - N the evening of January 16th, t the walls of the Hughes Audi- torium were assailed with the declaration that ttCincinnati Should Adopt the Commission- Manager Form of Government Rather Than the Federal Planit Right ably did our de- baters argue the question, and Walnut Hills that night achieved the greatest forensic Vic- tory in the history of the school. Over one thousand interested people were in the audi- ence, fully expecting to hear the debate of their lives. And hear it they did! Our team gave a marvelous exhibition of argument and ora- tory, and at the conclusion of the rebuttal there was no doubt as to What decision would be reached by the judges. Our first speaker, Dwight Slater, gave a clear explanation of the subject. and laid the foundation for the affirmative arguments. Pa ge Ninety-aeven Our second speaker, Miss Ruth Aultman, de- livered a hmain speechh Which could be con- sidered a masterpiece of debating. With her clear delivery, her sincere manner, and her forceful logic, Ruth certainly drove her 0p- ponents t0 the wall. Our third speaker, Les- ter Jaffe, showered such convincing argu- ments on his opponents that he almost over- whelmed them. It was the rebuttal, however, that showed the mettle of our debaters. The Hughes team had difficulty in answering our arguments, while our team tore its adversariest argu- ments into pieces. Miss Aultmants rebuttal was characterized by sarcasm and satire, and she surett did make the audience sit up and take notice? But if she brought the other team into the lire, our third speaker may be said to have raked them over the coals. Our C-aptaints rebuttal was one of the best im- promptu speeches ever delivered in an inter- seholastic debate. In the brief time of four minutes, he answered every argument brought up by his opponents, and still had time to indulge in a few humorous remarks. The Hughes team is to be congratulated on its splendid work, and our debaters certainly had to go some, to beat them. The aifair was a great success from every standpoint, and the audience left feeling that they had spent a most enjoyable evening.

N the night of Friday, May let, the Walnut Hills High School met Woodward High School to . debate the question whether or not Cincinnati should own and operate its own street railway system. The contest was staged in the Woodward Auditorium, and much credit is due to the committees in charge for so well arranging and executing the program. After the Woodward Orchestra had rendered The Jolly Coppersmith and O Beauteous Night to the delight of the large audience assem- bled to witness the contest, Mr. Pliny John- ston, the Principal of Woodward, introduced Dr. Condon, the Superintendent of Schools, who acted in the capacity of moderator. Page Ninety-nine After a few humorous remarks befitting the occasion, Dr. Condon read the rules of the debate and introduced the speakers. The debate was opened by the Woodward team, which presented the arguments on the affirmative with great force. The Walnut Hills team, supporting the negative side of the question, presented its arguments clearly, and fought gamely to the end. Certainly, each team considered the other a foe worthy of its mettle. After the last impassioned plea was over, the orchestra played the beautiful ttCollege Overturef which, if the truth must be told, was enjoyed far less than it deserved by the audience and speakers, now impatient for the decision. Dr. Condom had quite a de- lightful way of teasing the anxious multitude by displaying his sense of humor, and by de- laying his announcement of the decision of the judges. When at last he did make known the decision, the Walnut Hills aggregation turned sorrowfully homeward, foreOh, Fate, how could you will it thus?ethe judges had been unmoved by our efforts. They had placed the laurels of victory on other heads than ours. A11 honor to the victors! CEDRIC J. PRIEBE. B Grade Debating Team Page One Hundred THE JUNIOR-SENIOR DEBATE ,1 HE debate of April 3, 1914, be- tween the Junior and the Senior Debating Clubs, was successful far beyond the anticipation of ,. the club members, especially for the Juniors. The voluntary interest shown in the affair by the school at large was un- precedented, and doubtless there would have been an even larger crowd had not the base- ball team and the Boys' Gym Team had other activities scheduled for the afternoon. The program opened with a delightful piano solo by Miss Besuner, which was en- thusiastically appreciated by the audience. T0 the prolonged applause that greeted her performance, Miss Besuner responded with an encore which, though short, was sweet indeed. Mists Aldrich then introduced as moderator, Mr. Cedric Priebe, President of the Senior Club, who, when the applause had died down sufficiently, read the rules of de- bate and stated the question: Resolved, That Cincinnati should own and operate her own street railway system; after which he announced the sides and introduced the speak- ers. The Senior Club, in support of the Page One Hundred aml On: affirmative, was represented by Messrs. W. F. Smith, M. K. Weller and Wm. Mason, with Mr. F. F. Rees acting as alternate. The Junior Club, supporting the negative, was represented by Messrs. B. Finney, J4 Shields and S. Cooper, with Mr. Wm. Gillespie acting as alternate. While the judges were arriv- ing at their decision, the audience was enter- tained with a violin solo, rendered by Mr. C. Crane, accompanied upon the piano by Mr. H. Koller. The judges, Miss Kohnky, Miss Woods, and Mr. Benedict rendered their ver- dict twhich had been reached by a vote of two to onel that the team representing the Junior Club had best presented their side. The congratulations being over, almost all present adjourned to the Gym, where an in- formal dance was given under- the tactful chaperonage 0f Mise Aldrich. The music was rendered by Miss Creemer and Messrs. Salmar and Seiders, with an occasional out- burst by Mr. Mueller and the others present. Among the many thrills of the afternoon were the 'tdeath-defying and dare-devil dances of Messrs. Krueck , Cahill and L. Roth. WM. FERBER SMITH, 15. THE DEBATING CLUB I'EVIEALIZING that not only pleas- ure, but education, can be de- rived from a well-managed de- bating club, a group of zealous students, at the beginning of the year, determined to organize such a society. Their aim was high, but they were in earnest, and they went to work with a Will that meant success. At the first meeting of the club, of- ficers were elected for the first semeeter. The constitution was drawn up and accepted, and it was then decided to hold weekly de- bates in the elocution room. Gradually the club grew, and within three months it had trebled its original enrollment. The mem- bers became more and more enthusiastic and the weekly debates were always hotly con- tested. At last the popularity of the club was such that even the fair sex clamored for admittance to membership, with the result that now, for the first time in the history of the school, boys and girls alike battle weekly in verbal argument on the forum of the e10- cution room. The club soon became so large that it was decided to hold future meetings in the school auditorium, where the weekly de- bates were thereafter held, with all the digni- ty and seriousness of parliamentary contests. The record of the former Walnut Hills de- bating societies was one to be proud of, and because of it we had no trouble in arranging for public debates. The great victory over Hughes gave the club an added prestige, and after its reorganization, in February, it be- came one of the most prominent and innuen- tial societies of the school. Some of the questions which have been de- bated in the club are as follows: 'tNational Ownership? uMunicipal Own- ership, Commission Government? ttThe Federal Plan, ttThe Commission-Manager Plan, ttWoman Suffrage, ttSocial Centers? uCapital Punishment, HProperty Qualifica- tions for Voting, ttFree Trade and Protect- ive Tariff? Panama Canal Tolls Question, ttInitiative and Referendum, Restriction of Immigration, ttLiteracy Tests, Labor Unions, ttSocialismF L. J. Page One Hundred and Two DRAMATIC CLUB FfNE fine day last September the L Dramatic Club was organized. - organized by a band, which, like the immortal Pilgrim gathering, was small in size but mighty in purpose; and during its short life it has grown rapidly, drawing into itself the best dramatic talent of the A grade. From the beginning the work which the society has undertaken has been interesting enough to awaken enthusiasm, even in the most indifferent. As our textbook we took Brander Matthews? ttStudy 0f the Drama? and every two weeks Miss Aldrich gave us lectures on this book. These lectures, with the informal touch which they gave to the work, made each lesson thoroughly enjoyable and a thing to look forward to. On the weeks alternating with the hook-study,short half hour plays were given to the club by several of its members. There came a day when the Dramatic Club was called upon to display its talent to the en- tire A grade. Six members were singled out to appear behind the blazing footlights of the Study Hall stage, in the farce, A Likely Story? We shall always think of the play with a happy smile; a smile at the bright appearance Joe Cohn made, with the rouge on so thick we Page One Hundred and Three couldnit tell where his hair began and his cheeks left off; a smile at the dainty way Sue Brown learned to faint. On the day before Christmas, the play, ttA Proposal Under DichultiesF was given to the entire school. In the picture of this yearis school life which will remain in our minds, that play will stand out as one of the high lights. It was because the actors entered thoroughly into their parts that we enjoyed it as we did, because they were natural and at ease 0n the stage. Long will we re- member Lester Jaife on his knees proposing to an old sofa, and Anna Oesterlein vigorously brandishing a feather duster. Long may we remember the hospitality with which Louise Gross served Harry Keller with hot water and the thankfulnesg with which he received it. That was truly a memorable play. Yet, all these affairs, though they put cer- tain ones of the club in a Huster for some time, all these are as nothing in comparison with our final play, gThe Rivals. Let us speak in whispered tones of its success. Let us remember it in the future, as we looked forward to it in the past, as the chief pleas- ure, the crowning glory of a yeafs happy and successful work. RUTH AULTMAN.

The cast was as follows: Mr. Bob Yardsley ..................... Lester Jaffe Mr. Jack Barlow .................... Harry Keller Suitors for the hand of Miss Andrews. Miss Dorothy Andrews, 3 much-loved young Woman, Louise Gross Jennie, the maid .................. Anna Oesterlein The play was very amusing and the efforts of the actors elicited continuous bursts of laughter from the audience. It was indeed a surprise to see the exceedingly ridiculous and ironical expressions upon the countenance of Page One Hundred and Seven gig Lester Jaffe. He sure was some! bashful suitor. Harry Koller also rendered his part with great success, and as the bold suitor, Jack Barlow, in his conversations with the innocent Yardsley, he gave evidence of genu- ine talent. Louise Gross interpreted the part of Miss Andrews creditably and the theo- hues of Miss Oesterlein as Jennie, the maid, put the audience in a sympathetic mood. So well was the play performed that it was given as a treat to the entire student body on the day before Christmas, together With an elaborate musical program. And it was cer- tainly a treat! The entertainment was a huge laugh all the way through, and was one of the events which caused the Dramatic Club to come into such heaIty favor with the students. DAVID COHN, Dramatic Critic.

In the spring of 1913, at the interclass field meet, m Julian Both, a member of the class of 1914, suggested to Prof. A. M. Crane, the appropriateness of a club for the study of photography. Later those students inter- ested in this art met and started to organize, but the approach of vacation interfered and the club disbanded without having accom- plished anything definite. In September 1913, the Kamera Klub was organized under the direction of Prof. Crane. A constitution was adopted and offi- cers were elected for the hrst term as follows : President, Ewart Simpkinson; Vice-Presi- dent, Kingdom Weller; Secretary, Lillian Meeds; and Treasurer, Katharine Kriedler. On February 6, 1914, the mid-year re-elecm tion was held and resulted as follows: President, Kingdom Weller; Vice-President, Virginia Burke; Secretary, Dwight Slater; and Treasurer, Howard Lawless. The purpose of the club is nt0 promote an interest in the art of photography. Mem- bership is limited to A and B Grade students. The regular meetings are held weekly on Fri- day, the seventh period in the Physics labora- tory. Accompanied by Professor Crane, several excursions were made for taking pictures. In the fall the club went to Pleasant Ridge to take pictures in the surrounding fields. An enjoyable afternoon was spent. In De- cember the club went to Eden Park. A pic- ture taken on this trip of a rehection in the pond in the greenhouse, attracted attention. In March the club went to the Zoo. The weather was very unfavorable for kodak- ing, and few good pictures could be taken, so everybody turned his attention to merryu making. The club observed January 14, 15 and 16 as special days for taking pictures at school. Many pictures, characteristic of our school life, were taken. Through the kindness of Miss Gist, the drawing studio was used during the week of February 23d for an exhibition of pictures. The favorite picture, among the members of the club, was entitled The Day's End, and was taken by Lawless on that delightful little excursion to Pleasant Ridge. The Kamera Klub has been so successful that its continuation is assured. DWIGHT SLATER. Page One Hundred and Twelve Page One Hundred and Thirteen Mr. Cranets Christmas Party W , HE first of our class festivities Iteame off on the afternoon of December 23, under the benefi- cent auspices of Mr. Crane and the Dramatic Club. This happy occasion, one of the many bright spots of the year was dedicated to MM? the class of classes, and to our football men who had ae- quitted themselves so 110ny on the gridiron during the season j ust closed. The entertain- ment was given in the study hall, and was at- tended by nearly the whole grade, for the Whisper had gone around that there were go- ing to be some refreshments. The program commenced with some solos by a few of our budding musicians, notably Harry Koller and Miss Eugenia Remelin, but the ttpiece de re- sistance, so to speak, was a play presented by the Dramatic Club entitled 'tA Likely Story. This little sketch acted entirely by A graders, was very well presented, and was enthusiastically received, proving that our class is as little deficient in dramatic talent as it is in any other of its extraordinary and well known virtues. Refreshments were then served, consisting of ice cream and cake, with m14 iced upon it. Undeterred by the terrifying rumor that the cake had been baked by the fair hands of our classmates in Room 1, the boys attacked it bravely, and soon there was not a crumb to be found. To date, there have been no casualties, a fact which speaks well either for the skill of the girls, or the physical resistance of the boys, and which only goes to prove the exceptional merit of our class. After the eats had suc- cumbed, a dance was held in the Gym, and was greatly enjoyed by all. In this dance several of the football heroes showed that, however skillful and proficient they might be on the gridiron, they were sadly ignorant of tango lore. Referring to one of them, an agonized partner cynically remarked, ttHe couldnt find any place to step but on my feet. However, they made up in energy for what they lacked in grace, and so a happy equilibrium Was maintained. Mr. Henshaw adjourned the meeting at six P. M., and all went home, tired but happy. LOWRY SWEENEY. Page One Hundred and Fourteen The Senior Dance k NE of the events looked forward i to for the last four tin some ' cases fivei years came off in February, leaving us just one step nearer to the event of eventsn in June. There is no need to say that the Senior Dance was a grand success. The affair was held in the gym, which was prettily decorated in purple and gold, our class colors,ethe re- sult of much labor and toil by the Decorating Committee. What a time we had watching our hearts labeled Girl No. 10 or Boy N0. 16. Soon partners were found and programs were filled; then on with the dance! iwith our thoughts far removed from textbookseas usuaLi Page One Hundred and Fifteen At the end of the tenth dance, in response to our president's request, all the dancers, and the chaperons too, trooped into the Study Hall, profaning its usually quiet aisles with their Chatter. Girls found seats, and were soon followed by their escorts, each bearing two plates of ice cream and a pocket- fuI of cakes, which proves conclusively iif any one is so blind as to require a demonstra- tionJ that the One Stepti is a tonic; though, judging from our noon-hour appetites, it is doubtful if any of us really need such a stim- ulus, however much we may like it. Too soon six oiclock arrived and a limping lot landed on the first floor. Good-byes were called, after which silence prevailed and our dance was over. L. W. Dramatic Club Dance REFRESHMENT COMMITTEE.

Louise Gross. 3 NE of the most successful social affairs of the Walnut Hills High . School year was a dance given by the Dramatic Club, in honor b of the Senior Class. The day, March 27, cold, dark and dismal, was in striking contrast with the warm, bright and joyous interior of our loved Old School Gym. The exceptionally good music was compli- mentary, and furnished by Dorothy A. Creemer, J ennings Seiders and Fritz Salmar. An interesting method of selecting part- ners was devised and introduced at the ttGrand March. Each boy was furnished with a card bearing the name of some great author. Each girl was furnished with a sim- ilar card bearing the name of the authofs most noted work. It was rather amusing to notice a student nearing the completion of a four years, literary course, now acting as Oliver Wendell Holmes, but unable to remem- ber that he had written the famous book, The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table. John Milton had no trouble however in find- ing Paradise Lost. The school colors were observed in the se- lection of the flowers for the occasion, the girls wearing the white narcissus and the boys wearing the yellow daffodil. The programs carried the class colors, pur- ple and goldepurple letters, W. H., in a golden circle. The much criticised modern dances were not in evidence. The old and well known waltz, the two-step, and other dances made up a most enjoyable program, and furnished nothing to be regretted by either teacher or student. A most bountiful supply of ice cream and cake was served near the middle of the after- noon, and, judging by the repeat orders, it must have been thoroughly satisfactory. Realizing, as the students did, that this social gathering would probably be one of the last of the year, each one felt that it was in a sense a farewell reception in the 01d Gym. GERTRUDE ANDRIDGE. Page One Hundred and Sixteen The Popularity Contest tConducted By Harry Malteri esting election took place in which many of our popular stu- 5 i dents participated. First of all, the class voted to determine who was the most popular boy in the A Grade, and Carl Mitchell won by a large majority, which he well deserved. Good luck to you, Carl! Next came the voting on the most popular girl, and many of our fair and handsome young ladies put up a fierce battle, like a crowd of militant suffragettes. But the Hlittle one came out on top. Guess who it was? Why, Leslie Wil- liams, of course. Malter then read out with a melodious voice, The best-looking boy, and everyone sat up and took notice. Statler, who, as you all know was a pretty baby, has retained his comely looks to the present day, and with his glorious pompadour came out triumphant in the election. A close race then ensued between Florence Harding and Mi- nerva McGregor, and Florence won. Per- haps if Minerva had changed her name to Venus, she might have been the victor. The contest for athletic honors resulted in the election of Costello. But he had to go some to win, for he had David Barton to contend with for the honors. There was surely a mistake, or it was poor judgment on the part of the voters, that Bar- Page One Hundred and Seventeen ton was elected the biggest grind. He does not take more than eight or nine books home with him every night. Our friend Statler surely should have come out victorious, al- though he got only third choice. It looks as though Statler is liable to get brain fever at any time, for he does study so hard, but it is not in books, it is a study of the fair sex, the female of the species. Poor Pauline Oesterlein was voted the biggest Hirt, With Sara Hook a close second. Neither Pauline nor Sara was responsible for the large number of votes she received. Both are so attractive that the young men can hardly help noticing them. Did you see the spring opening at Burk- hardt's not long ago? Well, guess who was there? David Strickland, standing in the window with a short cut coat and tight trous- ers ta splendid ad ll. Of course he is the elaSs dude with David Barton his only rival. Lowry Sweeney, our prospective general, is about as ambitious as Julius Caesar. If Brutus were living today, even he would say $0. One thing to be proud of is that Ruth Ault- man was considered the brightest member of our class. Virginia Lee, better known as Jennie, was considered the most attractive. Her bright golden hair and noble stature has caused much comment among her fellow- students. A modern Milton has been discovered in our class, being the popular girl, Eugenia Remelin, the class poet. A hot race and a lot of counting took place for the cutest in the class, and Leslie Williams won. She is as cute as she is small. Did you ever stop to think of how much talent we have in our class? Krueck, alias Red, is a modern Caruso, only he has a beautiful soprano voice in- stead of a tenor. When he sings it sounds like the birds in the trees. Could it be any sweeter? Mary Campbell should never have gone to high school. She should have gone on the stage, for the class all agreed that she was the funniest. An injustice has been done to Habekotte. He deserves a trial by jury, to be vindicated. He has been elected the laziest, with Sweeney right at his heels for second berth. Why, Habekotte had a race witha snail one morning, and the snail won the race. Dave Brown and the wee Joe Berger got places respectively. in the contest as the tall- est and as the shortest member of the class. They make a good Mutt and Jeff combina- tion. No need telling you who is the biggest grumbler. Fifty-five votes were cast, and Malter received only fifty votes. He and the bears at the Zoo would make a good team. Joseph Cohn and Gertrude Andridge were chosen the best dancers. Our Joe is the fa- mous serpentine dancer and in his famous poses looks like Gertrude Hoffman, while our Trudchen dances around as lightly as a fairy. Next on the list came the voting on the best musician and of course Harry Koller was the winner. He is so musical that when he walks his feet become musical and squeak a melodious tune such as the popular song entitled Dear Old Walnut Hills, of which he is composer. Without a doubt Miss Remelin is the neatest girl, and Sweeney is positively the neatest boy. Just come in Room 3 and look in his desk. See how spick and span it is kept! Almost everything is in order. He never has more than five pounds of waste paper in his desk. Have you ever noticed Statler walking along the street? He plows along with his head toward the ground and his brows knitted. What can he be thinking about? He is so serious. It must be about the next meal he is to grub in the lunchroom. The pupils were right in naming him the most serious boy and the biggest grubber. Ladies and gentlemen: Three of the well known noise-makers, namely, Louise Dohr- man, Harry Malter, and David Barton, will be presented for your approval. Their names appear in the order of the noise it is possible for each to make. This trio is guaranteed to make more noise than any German band on the face of this earth. iApplauseD Do yen think Sara Hook is silly? Well, anyway she was donated the honor. One time in the his- tory class, she asked if the underground rail- road was a real railroad. As the wit of the class Habekotte was elected by a large ma- Page One Hundred and Eighteen j ority. We expect him to write books like those of Mark Twain some day. Poor Sara Hook, how badly they do treat her! They call her the giggler. Why, she never giggles, she has a split lip. Our second choice was Henrietta Schlotman. She surely is a gig- gler. When she laughs, her large, pearly teeth remind one of Theodore Roosevelt say- ing 2Delighted. Louise tVidD Dohrman was considered the jolliest of our classmates, with Sue Brown second. Well, they deserve to win, for they always have a pleasant smile for everyone. Next came the voting on the actor and act- ress! This was a close race. Ruth Aultman was elected the best actress, Sue Brown Win- ning second place. Prophecy :esome day we Will see them both starring in a great cast, with a world-Wide reputation. Hereis hop- ing so! It was hard to decide Which of our boys is the best actor, as there is so much dramatic talent in the Class of 1914. Joe Cohn was, however, awarded the honor, Harry Keller and Lester Jaffe receiving an equal number of votes for second place. Some day Joe Cohn will be playing melo- dramas, and the other two HGentlemen of Verona Will be starring in some great Shakespearean drama. Page One Hundred and Nineteen POPULAR BOY. C.

E had been delegated as a Com- mittee to wait upon the oracle of e Apollo to find out the destiny of ' our Class. So one fine day we ' marched boldly up to the shrine and khocked on the door. Apollo himself let us in, which only goes to show that the good old times are no more. He used to have priestesses to wait on him. The god looked rather shabby, we thought, and certainly he smelled of cigarettes. Well? says he, straightening his laurel crown, for it was all over one ear, ttWhattll you have? Why Apollo, said we, tiit's this way. We want to know whats to become of the Class of 14 at Walnut Hills, and we thought you could tell us? That tickled his vanity, so he staggered over to the tripod and sat down. By and by he began to mutter something. to come, Apollo, cried we, itthattll never do. Talk out like a man; tell us now. Where will Myra Winkler be, say, ten years from nowfw HIn Reno. Very good, and just as we expected. Go on, Apollo? Then he began: III see Belle West pleading for tvotes for menf Madge Elsinger, I see, demonstrating the quality of Pompeian Massage Cream; Genevieve Phillipsethis is rather mistye ah, Genevieve is chief perfume dispenser at the Fair. Near her stand Henrietta Schlot- man and Minerva McGregor exhibiting the Faifs new Summer styles from Paris. Adeline Seifried is traveling saleswoman for the mirror department of the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company, and Sue Brown is edit- ing the womants page of The Post. Hie, hic,-JI itAw, go on, get busy, and put your wreath on straight; you look like a Senior that way? Hie, oh, as I was saying, I spy Crane in the dual role of a mattress-factory president and leader of a brass band; I spy CahilPs Condensed Soup; I spy Barton teaching Greek to Indians;1 spy Stall's Never-Bust Drug Stores; I spyet' iiHorne free! You must be getting back to childhood? tiTee hee, said Apollo. ttOne, two, three, for that guy. You see Roberts is pitching; the Reds finally have a chance at the pen- nant. Ah, now youtre kidding, Appy. No? Well, go on with the story. Apollo proved to be a versatile fellow, for now he broke out into verse. ttBiff, oh watch that ball; Bang, oh see him fall; ITis our friend, Chick Evans, at work and at play. Page One Hundred and Twenty-two We started to applaud, but happened to recollect that he was a professional at that art, so, instead, we looked bored, and then re- minded him that there was another Evans. ttOh, in truth, by my ivory dome, youtre right. Well, for Pete,s sake, 111 break it gently. He is at the new Walnut Hills High School. Still? No, teaching Chaucer.H Our astonishment was great, as you can imagine, for he had seemed such a nice boy. Polly continued: ttI see Lawless, of the Wordly Day, report- ing that Jaffe succeded in winning that great case of J. Berger against D. Brown. The quarrel was over which one was the taller. ttRuth Thornbury, I see, playing the piano in a moving-picture show. I see Dorothy Poll playing a French horn in the Symphony Orchestra. Here is Ruth Stueve rehearsing the leading part in Pauline Oesterleints new drama, The Tearful Womanf Here are Helen Heraneourt and Louise Terry trainin g to enter the Olympic Contest, and Nell Moore, with a bottle of vaseline, ready to go as a trained nurse to Mexico. Whafs this that Cora Pugh and Louise Gross are doing? 0, baking for the Womants Exchange. Herets Esther Saurer teaching Kindergarten, and Louise Dorhman behind the peanutwcounter in Knows. Well, well, and Gertrude An- dridge opening up a dancing school in the Ar- cade, and Evangeline Hudson teaching swim- ming at Chester Park. Herets Mary Camp- bell starring in comic opera, and Marie Boneau giving tBrowningI lectures at the Page One Hundred and Twenty-thrcc Womants Club. I seem to see Grace Seifried and Florence Harding working on a machine which teaches Latin mechanically. I see Bessie OtCallaghan writing plays for the moving-picture shows, and Nannie Berman composing the music for them. I see Anna Oesterlein taking orders for face-powder, and Virginia Lee teaching Domestic Science at Hughes. Priebe is going to be successful as an architect. He will design the garage in Which Steidle will keep his new racing auto- mobile. Statler and Dale, I see, engaged in a swatting contest. Dale is swatting the 'pill, in the Minors, and Statler is swatting Flies in Kinkerts ice cream parlor. Blackburn is a famous doctor, and has discovered a new treatment forehic, hiceI .have been think- ingehiceof going to him myself. Gromme and Gaither have gone into the soap business. Meakin plays the leading part in a vaudeville sketch, The Dancing Teacher.' But hold! Now I see an audience in the Cincinnati Zoots open-air theater. Joseph Cohn and his famous quartette are render- ing Cohn's latest composition, tWhen the Raven Croaksf The other members of the quartette are Riggs, Krueck and Malter. The audience are looking wildly around, but I am unable to tell whether they are looking for the actual entrance of the bird or for the nearest way out. nI see a life-saver out at Chester Park, Cincinnati. A great crowd has gathered around him. With his hands thrust deep into the pockets Which he has had made on his bathing suit, one foot on top of the other, and his eyes fixed on the blue above, Arthur Osborn is instructing the youth how to swim. ttI see another of your classmates, his name is Costello, standing at the corner of Thir- teenth and Bremen, selling Shamrocks. In southern Ohio I see a peaceful little townspeaceful, yet soon to be disturbed- for up the main street flees a small black curbstone setter, yelping at every bound, for close behind him is Whittaker, the dog- catcher. ttNow I see Julian Roth standing in front of a little dry goods store trying to induce pedestrians to come in any buy. On the porch of a suburban home I see a father sitting, proudly watching his children play. In the spacious yard the many little Guckenbergers are running about so rapidly that I can not count them. In downtown Cincinnati one of your class- mates is attracting attention. A large pla- card on his back states that he has just made the long tramp to Newport and back. His name is Williams. gIn a classroom at Princeton I see Miller Outcalt, the head janitor. He was offered a similar job at Harvard, but the orange and black was dearer to him than the crimson and white. NOW in a camp of United States soldiers along the Mexican border, I see a general in gorgeous uniform drilling the men under him. As their ranks part, I get glimpses of the kitchen tent farther back, and see Sweeney, the third cook, paring potatoes. We chortled and remarked that we had always said that Lowry was a brave man. HHarry Kollerls newest ballad, IOn That Dear Old Madison Road Line: is proving to be his biggest success. I see Byard putting it over the footlights. ttI see Slater in the center of a group picture of the United States Supreme Court. I see e ii ttNow, look here, Apollonarisfl we broke in, tfyou have to cease prevaricatingi We're not saying this stuff youtre handing out is not on the level, but do you know, old man, you've been saying iI see, for the last five minutes, and all the time you had your eyes closed as tight as the corner on Sunday. Oh, I can not tell a lie; I see it With my mind's eye. We replied not; we only looked with scorn upon him. I see, I mean I hear, Davy Cohn handling the coin on the rear end of a pay-as-you- enter. It looks like Habekotte 0n the front end. Strickland, after clerking at Burk- hardtls for awhile, has taken to the country, and is now on the milking force of a large dairy. uMy eye,what do I see? Elsa presiding with angelic grace over an artistic home. Pearl Page On: Hundrexi and Twenty-four Cryer is teaching Latin at the University. Thafs nice. Pearl always did like Latin. Dorothy Creemer I see selling pretzels in market, and Mildred Cordell giving lectures on pure food. I see Ruth Railsbach and Helen Kahle ready to go as missionaries to Africa Here,s Sarah Buehl singing in grand opera, and Mary McDowell conducting a party through Europe, and Leslie Williams, mayor of Milwaukee. By the Styx, thaws odd. Herds a dusty Sign, RemeIin and Aultman, Attorneys at Lawf Queer! ' And now I have purposely left one of your most illustrious classmates till the last. But Page One Hundred and Twenty-Hv: you might have guessed that Mitchell would be elected President? We all began to exclaim, but Apollo went on: Yes, Mitchell was, elected President of the Cincinnati Council on the Prohibition ticket. NoW I see Sara Hook telling girls how most effectively to cIean up and paint up.' ' Ap0llo, said we, Hthat's meant for you. IVS good advice. Take it. And we went out the door. RUTH AULTMAN, HOWARD LAWLESS, DWIGHT W. SLATER, Committee. A-B Dance y HE social event of the season, as - far as the A and B Grades are concerned, came off most beau- tifully on the night of May 15, 1914, A. D. Up to date few have been tried and proven guilty of missing this spectacular production, created by the Seniors for the benefit of the Juniors, the class which is to supplant us in the regard 0f the hero- worshiping D Grade. In the language of these same scholarly Seniors, the party was tree bienf, meaning uall t0 the good? Everybody turned out, all dolled up in his best, and danced the hesi- tationf drank punch, and talked to every- body else, No one seemed in fear of having greatness, in the form of two demerits, thrust upon him, although a great many of the faculty were present. Little were the latter feared, however, as they were ex- omcio for the time being, and entered into the fun as much as the younger folks. Our worthy and highly respected President insisted on everybody having a good time, going to such an extreme, in fact, that he buzzed up to several attractive ladies, who seemed to be without partners, only to find that he had mistaken the society editors of our various newspapers for wallflowers. tAn important function like this the society editor herself always reports, to avoid loss of detail, due to carelessness on the part of an assistantj Although the weather was rather warm for dancing, the music was so elegant that the temptation could not be resisted, and few hesitated to 'thesitate while the hesitating was good. The boys seemed to have filled their programs to the satisfaction of the girls and of themselves also, for everybody was happy. But even as this tale must come to an end, so did the dance, and everybody breathed a sigh. No, gentle reader, not of relief, but of regret that the farewell party of the re- nowned Class 0f 14 had to come to an end so early, cut short by the melancholy strains of ttHome, Sweet Home? and by the realiza- tion that they soon must seek their downy couches and the Hsleep that knits up the reveled sleeve of care. So the dance given by the illustrious Seniors in honor of the Seniors-to-be was completed. After many lingering goodv nights and sad partings, as the boys gave a hurried gance at their watches to see What owl they could catch, and thus avoid the weary walk homeward, they hurried the girls off to their far-away homes in the remote corners of the city.

Two little maidens four feet tall, Who always prance around the hall! One little girl named Sara Hook As friend E. Leslie Williams took. Miss Sara Hook, 1 name her first, For she in talking is the worst; But in her chatter lies some matter, Though in her French She makes such clatter. But Leslie is quite dignified, Her clothes have so been classified; Yet not in dress alone Sheis first, In dancing also sheis well versed. Two little maidens four feet tall, Sometimes canit be seen at all, But in their lessons do they shine, To this we all our names would sign. But even though they are so small, They look so mighty in the hall ; One-nine-one-four, of fame galore, Is glad to have them in their score. CRANEiS PROPOSAL BY A FUTURIST.
