SENIOR CLASS POEM Our happy school clays are over. And as we idly sit and ponder; Back to old Waterloo High Our tlioughts will slowly wander. Some days seemed long and tedious; Some days were free from care; And somet imes we didn ' t accomplish The little tasks here and there. But its not just lessons learned in books, That will carry us through the strife; But a broad vision and how to meet The problems of daily life. So now dear old Alma Mater. We feel we owe you a debt. For the lessouj learned with.in your halls Which we can never forget. Thus no matter where we go. No matter where we may be, You ' ll find we ' ll alwa ' ys glow For the Class of ' 2.3. — K. H.

(The llooclnl 1 ' 3B THE CLASS OF OLD ROSE AND GOLD In the year of our Lord, Nineteen Hundred Nineteen, twenty-seven bright little lads and lassies entered the Waterloo High, to climb four rounds higher on the ladder of knowledge. Though many of us have fallen, we received only minor injuries and we were able to rise and climb to the old level. One of our members changed schools, which left us twenty-six at the end of the year. Richard Dannells was president ; Irene Fee, vice-president, and Carl Till, secretary and treasurer. We entered our Sophomore year with a smaller enrollment, but with a greater knowledge of what our future would be. Only twenty members came back, but two of these left us shortly after our Christmas vacation. Irene Fee was elected president ; Paul Hartman, vice-president, and Justin Girardot, secretary and treasurer. We spent our last day at Lake James with the other three classes. We entered our Junior year with only seventeen members. We work- ed hard and at the end of the year we had made a good record. Cyrille Duncan was president ; Paul Hartman, vice-president, and Aileen Fee, sec- retary and treasurer. Our class did not lose any of its members through- out the year. We have now entered the last year. One has gone to another school. V e have gained two new members, who are helping to make our class one of a high standard. Paul Hartman is president ; Marguerite Hamman, vice-president ; Irene Fee, secretary, and Russel Walker, treasurer. We as a class have tried to set an example for the rest of the school, but we hope that the future seniors have better success in making the Waterloo High 100 ' . efficient. — ALBERT WEIGHT, Class Historian. ®he iloeeUitb 19 23 SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the Class of 1923, being sound in mind and having finished our high school course, do hereby bequeath in the manner following some of the things fate has allowed us to procure: ITEM: We leave our jolly spirit to the Junior class.

DELONG, ®itc lloecbxtb 1923 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY The Junior Class of the Waterloo High school started as Freshmen in the year 1920 with twenty members. We ended our first year without losing a member. When we started in our Sophomore year we found that three of our members had found it necessary to seek employment. But we were very glad to find a new member, and thus the year ended with an enrollment of eighteen. After spending a pleasant vacation we have found ourselves jolly Juniors. A few of our members left us, but we were joined by new ones. We are represented in school activities, such as basket ball and society programs. The year ends, and we find ourselves ready to return the fol- lowing term and be Seniors. — MARY BONFIGLIO, ' 24.

Later two of our members left us, leaving the school year close with the enrollment of twenty-two members. In the year of ' 22 we came back to school with nineteen members as Silly Sophomores, and we have certainly lived up to it.

The students were able to offer good entertainment, both in vocal and instramental music. Our music instructor, Miss Wiggerly, has put forth great efforts in instructing us in our chorus work, so that Waterloo will be well represented in the musical programs in the future. We have one period each week set aside for chorus work. At this time we are given musical tests and also given biographies of great musi- cians and composers, besides our vocal training. On March the 16th. there was a contest between the three schools, Ashley, Corunna and Waterloo. This contest was given by the students of each of these schools, for the purpose of selecting the best talent, which would well I ' epresent that part of the county in the county contest. At the semi-county contest Waterloo won the vocal solo and double mixed quartette. This made a good showing in music for Waterloo and it also showed that we had good talent to represent us. The Operetta which was given this year by the High School, repre- sented the best talent in the school. The music was the very best, having been carefully selected, and each part was well carried out. The standard set in previous years has even been excelled. The Children ' s Operetta, Mid Summer ' s Night, given by ninety pupils in the grades, was the first Operetta given by the grades. It proved to be a big success. — HAROLD C. HAMMAN, ' 23. ART Under the instructions of Miss Wiggerly some very good work in art was accomplished this year. There were many different kinds of work given to the different classes. The Freshmen and Sophomores took water colors. The Sophomores also took pastel. The pastel work was very beautiful. The Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors took decorative designing and I ' eed work. The designing was taken the first semester. The reed work was started toward the end of the year. Although reed work was not taken very long, many different articles were made. An art exhibit was given during the last of the school year. These beautiful pictures and reed work made a very good showing for the school during the year of 1922-23. ®Uc lliieclntb 1928 3OCIETIE5 .

They entertained the Ciceronians to a Hal- lowe ' en party. The Ciceronians had to confess that the Zedaletheans were the best. The officers for the first semester were: Aileen Fee, President; Edna Forrest, Vice-President; Harriet Bowman, Secretary and Treasurer; Reginald Goodwin, Sergeant-At-Anns. The officers for the second semester were: Russell Walker, President; Edna Forrest, Vice-President;; John Showalter, Secretary and Treasurer; Carl Till. Sergeant-At-Arms. — IRENE DUESLER. ' 23. INAUGURAL ADDRESS Zedaletheans, Faculty and Friends : I wish to thank the members of this society for this office. I will try not only to keep the society up to its old standard but will try and push it on higher. But we can do this only with the hearty co-operation of every member. Former Zedaletheans have set for us a standard so high that it re- quires much work and co-operation on your part to keep up to this standard. With your assistance, I feel safe in saying that this will be the most successful semester we have ever had. I thank you. — AILEEN FEE, ■23. INAUGURAL ADDRESS Fellow Zedaletheans, Schoolmates and Friends : As I enter upon my duties as President of this society, I wish to thank the society for the honor it has bestowed upon me. Altho I fell there are others more capable of holding it than I, I will fulfill it to the best of my ability. In order that we may hold the society up to the standard, or if pos- sible raise it to a higher standard we must co-operate. When you are assigned a part on the program, do not put it off, but give it some thought and prepare it as soon as you can. The person who does not prepare his part until the last day cannot expect to succeed with his part as well as the one who prepares his earlier. We must be broad minded enough to see the great benefit we will receive from it in the future. Programs are not given for the sake of entertainment, but to instruct as well. So let us as a body put our shoulder to the wheel and make the society the best ever. I thank you. — RUSSELL WALKER. ' 23. (The lU• ecln 1928 gFhc |{ J6cb 1923 CICERONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY The Ciceronian Society started off with a boom this year. The race between the two societies was a close one, but the Cicies (as we are called) came out ahead. The officers of the first semester were: President, Irene Fee; Secre- tary, Cyrille Duncan. And of the second semester: President, Wilma Wiltrout; Secretary, Paul Hartman. The Ciceronians wei-e entertained to a Hallowe ' en party by the Zeda ' s, and later returned it. Good times were enjoyed at both parties. The first program of the second semester was given at the town hall, and the most important number on the program was a three-act play entitled Peggy of Primrose Farm. Every member of the society has co-operated and helped to make ' 22- ' 23 a very successful year. — CYRILLE DUNCAN, ' 23. INAUGURAL ADDRESS Fellow Ciceronians, Faculty and Friends: I wish to thank the members of the Ciceronian Literary Society for this office. As every one knows, co-operation is needed in order to ac- complish anything; therefore if we expect to keep up the high standard of this society we must put forth every eflfort in doing the parts that are assigned to us. The society is what the members make it. So if each member will do his best, we will not only keep up the standard of this society, but raise it higher than it has ever been before. I thank you.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS Members of the Ciceronian Society, Faculty and Friends: I wish to thank the members of the Ciceronian Society for the honor which you have bestowed upon me, and I assure you that I will fulfill the duties of this office to the best of my ability. Co-operation, as you all realize is the fundam ental factor for the successful maintainance of any society. Your hearty co-operation is needed to enable the society to maintain its usual high standard. Honor and fame from no conditions rise ; act well your part, for there all honor lies. Thank you.

SUBSTITUTES— Loy Ayers, Carl Till, Kenneth Hennev. COACH— L. R. Willey. The boys started out with high hopes of having a successful season, but their hopes were shattered after the first few games. Nevertheless, they fought hard and took defeat like sports. They were given new suits for the tournament, but these did not prove to bring us luck. But in spite of defeats we want to congratulate the boys for their noble efforts. The first game, October 14th, was played at Corunna, where we easily defeated Corunna. The score being 9 and 29. The second game was at Ligonier. Here we suffered our first defeat, but we put up an excellent fight and had Ligonier guessing until the last. The first half ended 9 and 9 and the last half 18 to 20 in their favor. Dunn starred in this game. The third game was played on our own floor with Ashley. This was one of the best games of the season. The game ended 19 to 19, having played ten minutes over time. The teams were well matched. The game was all the more exciting because of the rivalry of the two schools. The line up was as follows : Girardot — Forwards — Phinstag Till —Forwards— Elliot A. Kelley —Center— Funk Dunn — Guards — Clark G. Kelley — Guards — Wilson The next game was also on our floor, but this time, with Auburn as our honorable opponents, Waterloo played remarkably well the first half, but in the second half they slackened their speed. The following Friday we played Angola on our floor. We again suf- fered defeat in this game, but it was partly due to poor refereeing. The next Friday we journeyed to Auburn. The boys seemed to be nervous and had very poor luck at making baskets, including free throws. We were beaten to the tune of 21 to 7, but the boys all took it like men. The next week we played Hamilton on our own floor and were badly beaten; this time 26 to 11. Most of the subs played in this game and did remarkably well. The next Friday Corunna came down, and we easily defeated them to the tune of 27 to 7. So far the only teams they had been able to beat was Corunna. The next game Waterloo also won. This time Butler was made to (The lU• ecblt 19 ' 3 bow to us. They were beaten 17 to 7. The next Friday we journeyed to Angola in the Buss. We were completely lost on their floor. The floor being so large was a disadvantage to our boys in making baskets. The game ended 5 to 35. Angola has been district champ for three years and we could hardly expect to beat them. The Wednesday before Christmas, Garrett came over. Garrett hav- ing a much stronger team this year, they beat us, but we put up a good fight. The score bein 14 to 23. Girardot was quarantined at this time and his absence from the team was deeply felt. Butler played their return game on our floor, since they have no place to play. We again defeated them 27 to 16. It seems as if the boys took on new life with the new year, and then of course, Girardot was back again and he helped a lot, too, giving the others more confidence to have their captain back. The next game was played on Garrett ' s floor. Mr. Willey was enjoy- ing a short vacation with his parents and our boys were unable to prac- tice. Mr. Matson acted as coach. We were defeated again, 17 to 33. Our next game was with Ashley on their floor. This game was close and exciting all the way through. The game ended 21 to 26 in Ashley ' s favor. The last game on our own floor was played with Ligonier. This was another big game of the season. We played hard and kept Ligonier guess- ing all the while. Kelley starred in this game. If Grant had been able to play we feel quite sure we would have won. The game ended 22 to 24 in favor of Ligonier. The last game of the season was played at Hamilton. It seemed im- possible for our boys to get started. We were beaten 43 to 12. There were two tournaments this year. January 11th and 12th the county tournament was held at Auburn. The first game was played be- tween Waterloo and Ashley. Girardot was quarantined at this time, and the boys were nervous. At the end of the first half Waterloo was leading. In the second half Ashley went around and the final count was 1§ to 21. The second tournament or district tournament was held at Angola March second and third. Waterloo played Fremont and was defeated 10 to 5. This has not been a very successful year for the boys, but we are proud of the spirit they kept throughout the basketball season. — AILEEN PEE, ' 23. ®hc ii .■0Cblt 19 i3 Orhc lioecbub GIRLS ' BASKET BALL The season started in October. Mr. Willey was chosen coach. After many hard practices the regular team was selected : Forwards, Betty and Aileen; centers, Irene and Iva; guards, Irene and Mary, and with many good subs. They started the season with a rush by winning their first game. They won most of the games and this was a very successful year at Basket Ball. Betty Warner plays at right forward. She is very fast, plays the game hard and helps to pile up the score. She is a Sophomore and will play next year. Aileen Fee, (Captain), left forward, has an eye for shooting baskets and drops them in whenever they are needed. She will be missed, as she is a Senior. Irene Griffin plays at jumping center. She most generally gets the tip off and plays a very good game. She will be with us again next year, as she is a Junior. Wilma Wiltrout is side center. She is somewhat small, but makes up for that by playing a fast game. She comes from Corunna. We shall lose her also, as she is a Senior. Mary Bonfiglio plays at left guard. She makes her forward work very hard to get a shot at the basket. She is a Junior and will play again next year. L-ene Fee is right guard. She plays a very good game and breaks up every pass that comes her way. She is a Senior and will leave us this year. Emily Weyant, from the Freshman class, plays a very good game wherever she is needed. When any rough playing is needed she is the one for the place. We expect great things from her in the future. Cyrille Duncan, sub center, played very hard when given a chance. She will graduate this year. Rose Smith, sub guard, plays a very good game, but she did not start to play until the season was well under way. Ruth Wing, sub guard, played well and may play on the regular team next vear. ®he Uttecltitb 1923 SCORES Waterloo 10 Waterloo 26 Waterloo 28 Waterloo 14 Waterloo 13 Waterloo 7 Waterloo 17 Waterloo 37 Waterloo 27 Waterloo 1 Waterloo 10 Waterloo 23 Waterloo 11 Waterloo 7 Waterloo 10 Corunna 2 Ligonier 19 Ashley 6 Auburn 13 Angola 11 Auburn 34 Hamilton 7 Corunna 6 - Butler 1 Angola 15 Garrett 44 Ashley 6 Hamilton 15 Ligonier 11 Garrett 9 — CARL TILL, •23. The Basket Ball teams had a very successful year, as can be shown by the number of games won. In order to reward the players and also to encourage future players, L. R. Willey, coach of both the Girls and Boys teams, and manager of the Athletic Association, presented sweaters to the members of both teams ; those of the under-classmen carrying class colors and numerals, and those of the Seniors carrying in addition to this, ser- vice stripes. The boys receiving them were: Justin Girardot, Captain; Alfred Kelley, Grant Kelley, John Showalter, Harry Dunn, Carl Till, Kenneth Henney, Raymond Bonecutter and Loy Ayers. The girls receiving them were : Aileen Fee, Captain ; Irene Fee, Wil- ma Wiltrout, Mary Bonfiglio, Betty Warner, Cyrille Duncan, Ii-ene Griffin and Emily Weyant. ©he lloeclntb 1923 mxe U••« clnt 19 ' 3 AN OPEN LETTER My Dear Mr. Matson : I received your very welcome letter yesterday and was very glad to get it as I have been rather lonesome, of late. This Alaskan country is not a very lively place. I ' ve been in the Noi ' th Country since I graduated from high school under your able care. Not many letters find their way up here. I have been prospecting and trapping the last two years and have made a fair living. Nome is a thriving city of about a thousand inhabitants, mostly In- dians and some white people. I drove there the other day. Who do you suppose I had the pleasure to see? Justin Girardot and his old time sweet- heart, Ii-ene Fee. They said they intended to run a boarding house in Nome if the opportunity looked good. I received a telegram while at Nome calling me on business to Unalaska. On the boat I had the good fortune to meet more of my old classmates. Kenneth Henny and Albert Weicht were on the boat. We had a long talk and I asked them for more news of other classamtes. They told me that Mildred Snyder finally succeeded in finding a per- manent lover and husband after her futile search, and landed Don Mc- intosh. They also told me that Aileen Fee and Harry Dunn were happily married and that Paul Hartman was now a famous artist. Cyrille Duncan and Billy Wiltrout had each made a futile effort in search for an ideal husband, but not succeeding, decided to be old maids. At Unalaska I recognized Irene Duesler and Rosanna Castret and hailed them. They were on their way to China to become missionaries. I asked them for more information concerning more of my schoolmates. They told me that Alfred Kelly had married Rhea Dunkle and was part owner of his father-in-law ' s store. That Edna Fon-est was married to Alva Buss and that Margaret Hamman had become a famous educator, and her brother, Harold, a bookkeeper and surveyor, following in the foot- steps of his father. The international lecturer, Russell Walker had mar- ried Bertha Scheik and was out lecturing for the presidency of the United States. Carl Till is now a star basketball and baseball player and is sub water carrier on the New York Nationals. That woman-hater, Howard Hamman is finally married after breaking several girls ' hearts. Well, old helpmate, I will now close after this final outburst. Very truly yours, Q. E. D. mxe lIo9cb t 1923 A REAL SURPRISE Ada Combs was very busy cleaning her mother ' s bouse, for she was going away the next week. She linew her mother would not let her go it ' she did not get the house cleaned, because Spring was here. All the people on that street were busy cleaning house, and they didn ' t have time to stop and gossip like they usually did. Ada was going to New York City to visit her cousin. She arose early that morning so she could get the upstairs cleaned. She thought It would take only two days to clean the house, and then she could make her several dresses for tea parties and receptions that she expected to attend. She went about her work singing like a lark, and so loud that the neighbors all stopped to listen. Of course they wondered why she was so happy, as they had not heard that she was going to the city. Ada was busy upstairs and she did not hear the neighbor ladies come up on the porch. Mrs. Combs was baking bread and pies, for she was planning to have a party on Ada. The neighbor ladies had probably been there an hour or so before Ada was aware of it. When she came downstairs with the rugs she had to go through the living-room. What in the world are you doing here? asked Ada. Mrs. Brown said, I heard you singing so loud and I wondered what it was all about. When I got here the rest of the ladies had come for the same purpose. Now, I guess you can take time enough to explain yourself. Are you going to elope or what? Your mother would not tell us where you were going. Now please explain Ada was so bewildered she just looked from one to another. Then at last she said. I will tell you all about it as soon as I take these rugs out and put them on the line. When she went out the ladies looked at one another and laughed to think that she did not mistrust. When she came into the house she said, Saturday I leave for New York City to visit my cousin, Marie. I think I will stay a week or so; it just depends, if I like it I may stay a month. That is a good joke on you. Mrs. Brown, to think I am going to elope. Next time I won ' t sing so loud and I will be gone before you know it. I am sure we would have found it out in time to see you off. said Mrs. Brown. Ada told them she could spare no more minutes. She went back upstairs to her work and the ladies went on planning what they were going to do for entertain- ment. Meanwhile Ada ' s mother had baked one of the largest cakes that had ever been heard of in that vicinity. Mrs. Brown was to take the cake home with her and put on the icing. When Ada came downstairs to get the rugs she noticed her mother in the sewing room. Of course she wondered what her mother was doing but she didn ' t take time to find out. At five-thirty she called her mother upstairs to inspect her work. At the supper table that evening Ada wondered what her mother and father were laughing about. Ada was so busy with her own thoughts and plans that she did not inquire. She kept her father busy answering her questions concerning the train she would have to take. The next morning Ada was up much earlier than the day before. Her mother helped her clean the rooms so that she would get through that day. They had the downstairs all cleaned except the kitchen, and Mrs. Combs said she would clean it next week. Ada retired very early that evening because she was tired and she gpitg Itoegbitb 1928 knew she would have to awake early the next morning. All the next day Ada sewed and Mrs. Combs worked in the kitchen. Ada was busy with her dress and she did not know what her mother was doing in the kitchen. That evening while Ada was finishing her dress some one knocked at the door. Ada called her mother to open the door. Her mother did not answer, so she had to go to the door herself. Ada was so surprised she forgot to invite them into the house. We have come to spend the evening with you. We are afraid you might not come back to us, said Ruth Brown. Ada answered, Oh, I am so glad you came over and please come in. We will have a good old time. They liad a very pleasant evening together, and when they left they made Ada promise that she would write to them. When Ada retired that evening she was very happy. The next morning Ada left for New York. A number of her friends were at the station to see her off. She rode the rest of the day and all that night on the train. She did not sleep much on account of so much noise. About four-thirty the next morning she arrived at New York City. Marie was there to meet her. How did you like the trip? asked Marie. I liked it alright in the day time, but I prefer sleeping at home, said Ada. In the afternoon Ada and Marie went sight-seeing. When they were going down State street a very handsome young man came walking along. Marie knew him so she introduced him to Ada. May I call and take you ladies to the theater this evening? asked Mr. Harmon. I would like to go very much, said Ada. Marie had an engagement for that evening and she could not go with them. She said, I will meet you at the Summer Garden House after the play. Ada was delighted to go and she wore her new evening gown and coat. Tom called for her at seven o ' clock. On the way to the theater Tom asked all about Winfield (that was where she lived). It is_a very nice place and I would not give it up for all New York, said Ada. If it is that nice I am surely coming there to visit. Do you suppose I could go along home with you and see the city? asked Tom. Ada was so excited she hardly knew what to say. At last she found her speech and said, I would be delighted to have you go. After the play they met Marie at the Summer Garden House. Ada was having a delightful time, so Marie did not talk much, as she wanted Ada to enjoy her visit. When Tom took them home he asked Ada if he could call the next evening. Of course, Ada accepted. Ada stayed about a month and when the day came to go go home she did not go alone. This time it was Mr. and Mrs. Tom Harmon that called at the Combs ' home. Before Mrs. Combs retired that evening she sen out announcements of a party to be held the next evening. On these cards she told the people to bring plenty of rice and old shoes. The next morning Ada and her mother were very busy preparing refreshments for the evening. They baked a large cake and in this cake they placed a ring and a thimble. The person getting the ring would soon be married and the one draw- ing the thimble would be an old maid. That evening a number of people, both old and young, came to get a piece of the wedding cake. Ruth Brown got the piece of cake with the ring and Dorothy Green, the thimble. They all reported a good time. Before they left Ada and Tom had pleaty of rice tlirown at them. — IRENE M.

It was small wonder that the struggle for athletic supremacy had gone on for years. Each went the limit in vociferous faith in their respective high schools, yet never had the rivalry approached such fever heat as this year. The great basketball season was fast drawing to a close and each had gone thro its schedules without a defeat. Westfield, according to rampart reports, was the favorite, possessing Bob Warwick, an all state center and Clayton Stanley whose work at forward had been the subject of many a column in Westfield ' s daily quota of news. It was one of those typical winter days and Westfield Hi had just been dismissed for the day. Hello, Clayton, rang out a boyish voice. If you ' re going down Forrest Street I ' ll skip along. It was Bob Warwick, captain and center of the Westfield Hi team, speaking; his remarks being addressed to Clayton Stanley, star foi-ward and one of the main cogs in the machine in whom Westfield placed her hopes for victory. Rumor had it that a secret disruption had occurred between the two boys; the reason being jealousy on the part of Clayton, because of the election of Bob as captain. Both were seniors, both had been thro previous campaigns, and both were eligible for the honor, but it had de- veloped that there had been little choice as the practically unanimous election had shown. Oh, it ' s you, was Clayton ' s cool reply to Bob ' s words. Why travel Forrest Street when you live on Brown? Why, Clayton, you see I ' ve got perhaps an hour to spare and I ' m going down and split some wood for Widow Collins, was Bob ' s prompt answer. It ' s a mystery to me why you always do things for Mrs. Collins and everybody knows she doesn ' t give you a thing, said Clayton in a sneer- ing tone. Unmindful of the tone or of his apparent scornful demeanor, Bob re- plied in a steady tone, But, Clayton, Mrs. Collins once did Mother a great favor and I consider it my duty to help her. All right, Little Saint, said Clayton. And did you consider it your duty to absent yourself from our little party the other night, or would that have been against your religious principle? said Clayton, a mocking grin on his face. No! almost shouted Bob, but I do consider it my duty to obey the (the K-leclm 1923 training rules of our team. It is my duty to keep myself in the best shape that I may give the best that is in me for the old school. More than that, the people you know and the people I know are looking to you and me to fight for Westfield and it is my duty to live up to the trust they have in us. Bob had become warm in the defense of the principle he most loved, his duty; and having finished speaking his mind, he turned off in the di- rection of Mrs. Collins. As for Clayton, he stumbled homeward as if in a daze. Bob ' s words, my duty, had hit the mark. He had never looked at it in that light before. A flush of shame came over him as his thoughts traveled to the fact that a neighboring town had made him a tempting offer to play with a professional team just two days before the all important game with Marlin, and he had wanted to accept it. Now over him came a change. Clayton Stanley ' s duty was to fight for dear old Westfield; to give the best that was in him and to uphold the trust that his friends had in him. The game with Marlin was the following Friday and this was Wed- nesday. One more night of practice, but he was resolved to use it to his advantage and his resolution was made good. At last the big game. Westfield, headed by Captain Warwick, trotted out on the floor and a mighty roar greeted them. Old Rose and Gold pennants fluttered and waved and the crowd was at fever heat. Marlin at last came out for warming up practice, and a mighty roar of approval went up from their supporters. At last the game began and as the tide of battle swung backward and forward the thought, My Duty, was uppermost in the mind of Clayton Stanley. Forgotten was the tempting offer from a neighboring town. The thought that it was his duty to fight for Westfield Hi remained. In the midst he hear someone in the sidelines yell, Two minutes to go, Westfield. Let ' s go. And with a mighty rush the ball was carried down the floor and with a Marlin guard trying desperately for the ball, Clayton shot it straight toward the hoop and with a swish it dropped thro the net and the game was over. Westfield ' s team had to dive for the dressing room to avoid being carried off by the n ow wild crowd of joyful fans. Dressing now being done, it was arranged by the fans to have a reception in the auditorium of the school for the victors. Clayton edged his way around the dressing room until he came to Bob, who, supreme in his joy at victory, did an impromptu war dance around him, but Clayton silenced him by saying, Bob, don ' t say a word of praise for me. I don ' t deserve it. It was you who taught me the true love of school by your My Duty. You taught me that it was my duty to uphold the honor of Old Westfield. And, boys, said Clayton in his clear, steady voice, I say, let ' s give nine Rahs for Bob Warwick, the greatest captain old Westfield ever had. And do you know it always has been a mystery to the Principal, who was just ascending the stairs at that time, how seven boys could cause such a roar. — ROSANNA M.

Mrs. Harding will make you feel right at home. Well I know, but you know how I feel. You go on and go, I will be perfectly all right. I ' ll take in a good movie. Jimmy Long was a college pal of Robert Brown. He was paying his friend a visit. Bob had been invited to a birthday party at Harding ' s and was trying to persuade Jim to go along. Jim really wanted to go, because he had heard Bob speak of Phyllis Harding and he was anxious to meet her. After considerable coaxing Jim consented to go, providing it was all right with Mrs. Harding. Bob called up Mrs. Harding and she said any friend of Robert Brown was surely welcome. Jimmy Long whistled merrily as he retired that night. Why shouldn ' t he whistle? He had met Phyllis Harding and had danced three or four dances with her. Bob noticed that Jimmy was exceptionally happy so he inquired as to the reason for all the merriment. The answer to his question made him frown a deep sympathetic frown. He knew how de- termined Jimmy was once he set his head for a thing. Better not build your castles too high, he replied, in a tone that made Jim stop and stare at him wonderingly. After a moment ' s pause he continued, She ' s had chances to marry men that the average girl would marry in a minute. Jimmy looked at him again and a slight smile slowly came across his face. Then he said, But you see, Pm different. Then he added, What are her ideals? Maybe I could live up to them. Bob ' s face broadened into a smile that reached from ear to ear. That ' s one thing you couldn ' t do. You ' ve done about everything else in this world that you wanted to do, but that ' s one thing you couldn ' t do. She has a silly notion in her head that she must marry some vicious wild bandit and tame him. He must be a real for sure bandit. So you see it will be impossible for you to be that because you are no more like a bandit than you are like a jack rabbit. Jimmy said no more, but went silently to bed deeply engrossed in his thoughts. Bob let him alone because he knew it would do no good to interrupt him. About three o ' clock next morning Bob was awakened by a loud ex- clamation from someone in his room. He sat up in bed and rubbed his eyes very briskly. On seeing Jim the expression on his face turned to a look of doubt. What ails you, man, prowling around at this hour of the morning? Are you ill? K you ' re not sleepy, pray let one sleep who is sleepy. And with that he fell back on his pillow and covered his head. Jimmy was on him in a minute and took the covers off his face. ®hc lloecb t . - Listen, Bob, just a minute please, I have a proposition to make to you. Will you listen? No, came the gruff reply. Due to loss of sleep and the outrageous idea of being awakened at three o ' clock in the morning to listen to some proposition. Bob was very angry and he absolutely refused to listen. Jim seeing it was no use to coax him, decided to try and snatch a few minutes sleep, too. When Jim awoke the next morning he at once saw t hat Bob had arisen before him. He dressed hurriedly and ran downstairs to find him and to make the proposition. He found Bob in the library reading the morning paper. On seeing him and recollecting his previous attempt to make the proposition, he decided to wait until he was sure Bob was in good humor. Good morning, old top. What ' s the news? Good morning, Jim. No news that amounts to anything. These strikes make me tired. The papers are always full of murders and rob- beries. With that Mrs. Brown called them to breakfast. They said no more to each other until after breakfast when they were seated on the wide veranda, basking in the sunshine. Jim was anxious to make his proposi- tion but he did not know just how to begin. Bob finally broached the sub- ject for him. That proposition, Jim. I ' m ready to hear it now. Jim ' s face broadened into a smile. Don ' t think I have gone crazy, Bob. I really am serious. I am desperately in love with Phyllis and you must help me win her. First let me ask you a few questions. Have you ever mentioned my name to her? Bob studied a moment and then replied, No, I don ' t believe I ever have. Jimmie Long sat back in his chair, and drew a breath of relief Things are coming right my way. I am going west tonight, and in a few days Phyllis Harding will receive a nice little letter demanding her to come west. I will sign it, ' Gorilla, the terrible bandit. ' Bob gazed at him a second, then he rose to leave with a look of dis- gust on his face. Jim, you ' re hopeless. This is an outrageous idea. What would your father say to it? Oh, dad left yesterday for Europe. That ' s why I ' m here. Of course it doesn ' t matter to me what you do, but I ' ll wager you don ' t succeed. With that he walked away. Jim sat for perhaps half an hour making and remaking plans. Then he hurried up to his room. The following Wednesday, Phyllis Harding received a letter. It was very short indeed, but it conveyed a very interesting message. Phyllis read it several times, then she paused and looked out of the window. It wouldn ' t do to tell her mother because she was opposed to her silly idea of marriage. She would tell her that she needed a rest and was going @he |{o6cb t 19 3 west for a while. She would see who this Gorilla person was. A few days later, Bob, reading the society columns chuckled to him- self. Phyllis Harding going west for a rest. She sure was nervy. Things were going too fast to suit him, so he also decided to go west for a short vacation. Jimmy had made a careful survey of the communitv where he was stopping. He selected a deserted shack about three miles i ' rom the village He laid up provisions for about one month, then he hired a few boys to watch all the trains and see if a certain young ladv got off. He rigged up in some bandit clothes and had his picture taken, then he mounted these upon large posters and underneath he printed in large tvpe CORU.- LA, THE TERRIBLE; BEWARE OF ME. Phyllis having gotten nicely settled in her room, such as it was, de- cided to walk around the town and learn what she could about this terrible bandit. The town was a typical little mountain village. It was located on the side of a mountain looking down into a gorgeous valley. The second day in the village she saw the bandit. She was just re- turning from a stroll as he dismounted from his horse and entered the hotel lobby. How wonderful he looked, but he would look a lot better if he was dressed in civilian clothes, thought she. As she entered the lobby she had a strong desire to speak to him but something told her not to. She stopped to inquire for her mail, and the bandit also came up to the desk. When the clerk had his back turned he said in a gruff whisper, I ' ll be at the mill at ten o ' clock tomorrow morning, will you join me for a ride? Phyllis was tongue-tied. She nearly lost her nerve, but she de- cided to since she had come this far. Yes, she finally answered in a weak little voice. The clerk handed her the mail and she hurried off to her room. Was she really doing right by going for a ride with this strange person? He really did not look so terribly, but she would carry her small revolver; surely she could protect herself. Phyllis was a little late in arriving at the mill, and Gorilla reminded her of it. They started off at a brick canter up towards the summit of the mountains. You didn ' t set any definite time for returning, did you? he asked. Why no, not exactly, she replied a little nervously. I brought a lunch along in case we are gone too long and get hungry. It ' s quite a jaunt up to the peak of this mountain, but it ' s worth it. Phyllis was vei ' y silent and Jim wondered about this. He really had expected her to be very conversive. Perhaps she was frightened by his appearance. Next time he would fix up a bit. After a while conversation came more easily and they chatted about the scenery. All the time Phyllis was thinking how much he was like the man of her dreams. It surely must be a dream. Jim too, was thinking. He was not sure just how a real bandit would make love but he decided to be very rough. They ate their lunch near the summit and then continued their journey. When they finallj ' reached the top, Jim dismounted, leaving Phyllis to get off unassisted. She felt very weak and awkward as she dismounted. Jimmy ' s affections were taking deeper root and it hurt him to allow her to be treat- ed with so little regard. Phyllis too, was feeling the deepening roots of love. He walked over to the edge of the cliff and motioned for her to follow. She peered shyly over and drew back with a shudder. The next time she S mxe l{oecb t 1923 looked he gave her a slight push and then caught her. She tried to free herself but it was impossible as he was very strong. He gave her a sav- age look and then said in a gi ' ufF tone, ' Don ' t try to get away from me. I am determined to make you my wife. Make me your wife? Do you know who I am? she replied hotly. Her dream had faded away and she was very angry. Why not make you my wife. You seem to suit my taste. It makes no difference who you are. But you need not worry, because I know. He made no effort now to hold her. She immediately took advantage of her freedom and ran, mounted her horse and galloped away towards the valley. Jim made no move to stop her, but seated himself under a tree and took out his pipe. Had he blundered? Would she leave for the east or would she reconsider and recall her dream ? Phyllis went straight to her room when she arrived at th e hotel. She flung herself down on the bed and wept bitterly. She did love him but she would not let herself admit it. She finally cried herself to sleep and when she awoke it was twenty minutes to six. She hurried to dress for supper and then decided she would write a letter. She met with a surprise when she entered the dining room, for there sat Robert Brown. She was very glad to see him and put off her letter writing until later, that she might have a chat with him and raise her depressed spirits. She didn ' t mention her meeting with the bandit, but Bob guessed that some- thing was wrong. After she left Bob, she wrote the letter, — it was to Gorilla, of course. She told him that she had had a silly idea that she wanted to marry a bandit but now she had come to realize the foolishness of it. She couldn ' t marry a murderer and a thief. It was simply ridiculous. She would leave in a few days but he need not try to see her, because it would be impossible. Jimmy read the letter very carefully. She was right. What would he do now. While he was pondering he heard someone behind him say, Cheer up, don ' t give up too easily. It was Bob. How fortunate. He would cease to be Gorilla, the bandit, but would be Bob ' s pal, Jimmy Long, just arrived in Dayville. Phyllis received no letter from Gorilla as she expected and thought that no doubt he realized the impossibility of the matter and did not want to trouble her farther. She was glad to see Jimmy Long, he reminded her so much of Gorilla. The three spent the day together riding through the valley. That even- ing after supper they gathered on the veranda and watched the moon come slowly over the mountain. When it finally reached its zenith Jim asked Phyllis to go for a walk. They excused themselves from Bob and walked toward the village outskirts. When they were at the end of the road Jimmy suddenly grabbed her and kissed her madly. She struggled at first and then returned his kisses. She knew now that he was Gorilla. You do love me, he cried. They searched for Bob as soon as they got back to the hotel, to tell him the good news. They were married next day by the village parson. Phyllis wired her mother that she had carried out her wild idea and had married Gorilla, the terrible bandit. But Bob, who was more considerate, also sent a message that explained the matter perfectly. Both had won — Phyllis had carried out her dream and Jimmy had won her in spite of the warnings of Bob. — CYRILLE DUNCAN, •23. ®he l aecbxtb 1928 OUR LIBRARY The Waterloo High School Library has been greatly improved this year and now consists of about nine hundred volumes.

A REAL Auburn Car, at $1095, let these facts sink in for a moment, and you ' ll realize that, after all, you can pay a low price and get the kind of car you want. No mysterious secret about this car. It ' s smaller than other Auburn models in size and therefore smaller in price ' But it ' s Auburn value, the same value that is in all Auburn Cars — and that ' s the best value that can be built into a car. The most successful units developed by the motor car industry are com- bined in the Auburn way. You have speed, power, stamina, low operating cost, delightful .satisfaction. Solid, compact, sturdy — a car that will stand up under the hardest of driving. This car is made in two models, the Touring Car at $1095, and Touring- Sedan at $1465.

Maybe It was, but this I ' ll bet, She ' s good for many a long mile yet. The windshield ' s gone — and the radiator leaks, The fan belt slips and the horsepower squeaks. She shakes the screws and the nuts all loose, But I get forty miles on a gallon of juice. When I can ' t get gas I burn Kerosene, And I ' ve driven home on Paris Green. She has a rattle in front and a grind in the rear, And a Chinese puzzle for a steering gear. Her coils are dead and her plugs fire. And her piston rings are bailing wire. But in spit of this she pulls me thru And that ' s about all my car can do. With high-priced cars they give you tools. Some extra parts and a book of rules. Some wire stretchers and a pair of shears Are all I have carried in fifteen years. And if I live to see the day She falls to pieces like the one-horse shay. If old Hank Ford stays in the game, I ' ll buy another by the same true name. TO KEWKTH HEWKY Tell me. O, great man. The secret of Your wondrous knowledge. Do you, O, senior, with your Infinite power of comprehension. Glean your wisdom from. The tongues of trees. The books in running brooks And sermons in stones? Impart to me, O finished Scholar of the ages. Passionate Poet, And learned Philosopher Of all times, the secret of Your hidden charms, enabling you To extract the truths and facts Prom your mystical books which Surround you in your Midnight reverie with The written record of the thoughts Of the world ' s great seers of ages past. ADVICE TO A FRESHMAN Oh. tell me little Freshman, What makes you look so green? Is it because while on the street, It makes you easily seen? Why do you ask of teachers, With ne ' er the faintest smile. So many foolish questions. In length about a mile? Oh, do you know, small Freshmen That you should act just so, And mind your teachers ' every word And don ' t be quite so slow? You should always work quite hard And get your lessons all; Another thing, don ' t loiter ' rou nd And gossip in the hall. Now Freshmen, if you heed these words And mind them, every one. You may expect to pass your grades. And have another year of fun. Man is not the only animal that can be skinned more than once. t t t Henry Wing (Botany) — What is co- caine used for?

SOME DAY SOME DAY you are going to look back on your present day worries and annoyances and wonder just how and why it was that they meant so much to you. Some day you are going to adopt a life philosophy which will lubricate your life ' s track and enable you to ease yourself reasonably easily and gracefully over many of the obstructions which now appall you. Some day you are going to realize that while it is true you must live your own life, that it is also true that whatever you put into life you take out of life, no more and no less. Some day you and we are going to realize more fully than we do today, that this little game we call life must be played according to the rules and that one of the basic rules is, that we attract love or hate, success or defeat, by our thought attitudes. Thought waves exist just as surely as do sound waves, and so, some day, you and we are going to rule our lives practically as we will, instead of being whipsawed back and forth as we are today.

Insured Deposits Our customers are continually saying , ve like your idea of Insured Deposits. The proposition is absolutely fair as well as safe, and no doubt this Safety feature will interest you. Your money should be insured the same as your other property. If all bank deposits were guaranteed, thousands of dollars annually would be saved to the people of the country. The Federal Government realizes this, and demands that any bank in which public funds are kept, must guar- antee their safe return. If the Federal Government, State, County, and Cities require this protection from every bank, then the individual depositors should be protected as well. Every dollar deposited in this institution is Insured, and it costs you nothing to get this double safety for your money. Our facilities for doing business enable us to take care of practically any kind of financial transactions, and we will be very glad indeed to welcome you as a customer and will try to serve you faithfully and well.
