Man has always indulged in reflection. Down through the ages he has turned to the past to glean material that he rriight express himself in art. poetry and music. Paintings and statues keep be ore a busy ivorld a picture of the past. Poetry tells a story in a musical form of the events of by-gone days. Music brings to the ears of millions the Joy s and suffer- ings u ' hich men have endured in other ages. Our book does not pretend to be an art; it only hopes to serve as a scrapbook whose pages will reflect those days which men have always said are the sweetest — schooldays. -► ©•: Page Two =:i®H - • t-K©C =ll 4-«— To the parents of ( ' estern High School pupils, ivhose love for us has made them sacrifice that ive might attend school and whose encouragement and understanding have accompanied us in all of our under- takings, ive dedicate this Beacon of nine- teen hundred and thirtx-one. -♦ ©i: Paic I ' hrcL II 4-«— - -jsec ZI -«- Executives The cordial relations existing between the student body and the faculty of the estern High School have had an out- standing influence on ( ' estern ' s success. A spirit of amiability, affability, and good cheer has alivays marked the points of contact betiveen the two. I trust that this spirit u Hi continue, thereby making our success more pronounced year by year. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. We want no dull boys at Western. To learn to get real enjoy- ment out of wholesome play, to be a good mixer and a good sport, is one of the most valuable lessons of our school life.

The oldest book which we could find was published in 1906. Then it uas printed four times a year, and contained short stories and a department of neivs and alumni notes. The graduates received little recognition, and the book had only forty pages. The idea of a Beacon staff play was thought by the staff of 1930 to be original: but they were mistaken, for in 1908 the Beacon staff gave a vaudeville show which was pronounced a great success. The class of January, 190S had thirty-tivo members. In sports the school was successful, winning many of the football games, the biggest of ivhich was the game played at Hudson, .Michigan, on Thanksgiving Day. Western icon with a score of 10-0. Those were the days when the high schools played schools outside of Detroit. In 1910 the Beacon was devoted largely to short stories and athletics. The chief games of the season were the football game ivhich ( ' estern played icith Port Huron and won with a score of 11-5. and the basketball game in which she defeated Ann .Arbor High 36-13. The classes of graduates were still very small: in 1910 there were thirty-eight seniors. Euterpe, the musical club of ' estern, presented the school with a beautiful tapestry in 1914. This ivas one oj the most important clubs of the school along with the Senate and the Assembly. The orchestra was growing and then had Jourteen members. In athletics the school zvas still successful, winning Jootball games from ( ' indsor. Royal Oak, Monroe, and Central. In 1916 debating seemed to be one of the most popular activities of the school. In that year the Senate. W estern ' s debating society, defeated Sorthwestern, Cass and Central on the subject of Preparedness. The Reading club entertained the students with a Greek play. The Beacon published in feature form the birthdays of famous seniors. There were eighty graduates in the class of June. 1916. Nineteen seventeen found many Western alumni in France, and nearly all of the Jour Beacons contained extracts from letters which they had written in the trenches. The girls ' and boys ' clubs at home were busy doing war work, such as selling liberty bonds and knitting tor the soldiers. Still publishing letters f rom the boys overseas and full of patriotic poems and articles on the work of folks at home, the Beacon told little that was not war news. The service flag boasted one hundred and sixty stars, two of which were gpld. In 1920 when the world was once more at peace and more or less normal again, the yearbook slipped back into the usual news of school happenings. Rankin won the debate from Roosevelt on compulsory military training. The R. 0. T. C. won the Battalion Cup. The membership of the school had noiv climbed to over one thousand. Perhaps sometime a future Beacon editor will look at the book of 1931 and smile over the pictures and written accounts, and it is hoped, if he does, he will find that estern has grown as much between 1931 and his time, as it grew between 190S and our time. The staff wishes to thank Mr. Arduin and Donald Payne for the lettering which they did on the snapshot pages, and Harold Mohr for his assistance with the photography.

Lovely roses as our flowers, Colors of maroon and cream, Scattered o ' er the earth we ' ll shower Blessings great and deeds supreme. Chorus To our Western high school, Long be praise and cheers, Where we drank from wisdom ' s cup, Through the happy years. Farewell, dear old Western ; Hail the red and white. For eternity we ' ll build. Our guide, the Beacon light. II Friends and comrades ranks in order, March we lightly o ' er life ' s sand; Now we start to cross the border To our future promised land. Western stars will guide and bless us, All along the road of life. Problems new will ne ' er distress us; We will conquer in the strife. Theone Harcourt. Motto: Build not for time but for eternity.

Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors — Seniors at last, the long hoped-for honor. It was a memorable day in the li -esof 133 students, that morning in Sep- tember, 1930, when the passed through the threshhold of 118 into the portals of seniordom. The gavel was now in the hands of a new group. Merrill Hershey of the June ' 30 class had presented it to Arthur Castorri. representing the January ' 31 class. Election of officers was a busy time. Harry Cook, football star and captain, was chosen president: Beatrice Johnston, veteran of the student council, ice-president: Alberta Long, honor student, secretary; and Arthur Castorri. R. O. T. C. Iajor, treasurer. All the committees from social to cap and gown were chosen. To start things going, John Sedan and his social committee planned a senior dance. Enthusiasm reigned king from that moment until graduation. Two seniors were honored by the Round-Up stafif. Harry Lee and Clark Bradley were chosen representatives of Western to the N. S. P. A. press convention at Cleve- land. Soon afterward Elizabeth Richards attended the M. L P. A. convention at Ann Arbor. The class chose the motto, and as the artists lettered it on the front board, a thrill only seniors know filled 118. Build not for time but for eternity. The flowers, Johanna Hill and E. J. Hill roses were chosen. Maroon and cream were selected as the colors, and from then on everything with maroon or cream in it was reverent to the seniors. The memorial and luncheon committees were busily engaged. The time just sped along; true graduation time was near at hand. Friday came and with it the presen- tation of the gavel to the June ' 31 class. William Crothers presented it to the incoming class, and John Makar accepted it for them. Monday saw last minute drilling for commencement, with the prom occurring in the evening. After graduation Tuesday the reception and class luncheon were held. And what a luncheon! The color scheme was carried out in everything from the maroon and cream vegetable salad to the maroon ice and tiny cream cakes. After the luncheon .... farewell! ..♦ 11 Page Twenly-five - - st: =l34-t WLECT ONJ- 9. L OM6 .

FAREWELL, dear comrades, we now say goodbye ; The time for our parting is here. Coral and silver are floating on high. Our teachers and classmates are near. Chorus Western High, with voices rising, Voices filled with ecstasy. Sing we now our song of parting, As we take our leave of thee. We are friends whose love is lasting. And, as parting time draws nigh. Our hearts are fondly singing, so Fare thee well, dear Western High.

A. convention: the hand playing at the Denby high school dedication, the R. O. T. C. field meet, and the neigh- boring intermediate schools; and the orchestra at the Senior and Beacon plays and commencement. R. Ashe, G. Baggott, C. Berger, F Black, A Bien, A. Campbell. R. Cazort.

These two victories enabled the Cowboys to tie for fourth place in the est Side League The usual fumbles of a first game were in evidence in the opener with Northern, Outweighed by .Northwestern, the Cow- boys made a plucky stand in the last half when they held the Colts to a lone touch- down. The Cooley game looked like a scoreless tie until the closing minute when a tricky reverse play scored for the Cardinals, Smothered by a rock-ribbed defense and a barrage of passes, the highly touted Redford team bowed to the Red and White warriors. Intercepted passes spelled defeat for Western in the Highland Park game. In the last quarter of the Central game Golembiewski blocked a punt and Cooper recovered to score a safety and a final victory for the Cowboys, Cooper was the keystone of the Ranch defense, while Grieger excelled in line- plunging. Captain Cook did some mighty good punting and Jewell some fine passing. Recognition for clever receiving is due Homer and Schwab, ends. Coach Gunnerson hopes a larger squad will tLirn out this fall. -H i: Page Eighty i- lC :l - Qirl ' s ' Hockey Front row: V. Wolf. D. Levine. I. Lingcnfelter. D. Arthur. G. Ellis, A.

Kozelko THE Cowgirl pucksters had an unsuc- cessful year as they lost three of their four scheduled games and tied the remaining one with Cass. On the whole the contests were well played hy the girls with a strong defense as an outstanding feature. The first game with Northwestern was a series of fouls on both teams. The puck was knocked from goal to goal, hut no one gained possession of it. The colts shot their first goal, and that awakened Western ' s team. Fast dribbling, and quick defense were prominent from then on, though apparently to no avail for another goal was made by a Northwestern girl. The score totaled 2-0. The game with Cass was uninteresting Both teams put up a good defense, so they finished with a scoreless tie. We lost to Commerce and Southwestern with 2-0 score in both contests. Edith Levine, Irene Lingenfelter, and Marie Meier were outstanding during the season in their team work, and ability to get possession of the ball whenever anyone did.

To offset this, Bill Zapalski gained city-wide attention by his brilliant indi- idual performances. Running against the fastest kind of opposition, Bill placed first in two of the quadrangular meets and bowed only to Stuart Fortner, city champ, in the other two. His second place in the city meet was chiefly responsible for Western ' s winning seventh place as a team. The second-best veteran performer, in the opinion of Coach Gracey, was Fran- cis Mondro; the mentor also praised the showing of Victor Lavinskas and John Jeffrey, two newcomers to the team. Coach Gracey pointed out that the poor showing of the team as a whole was caused by the poor condition of some of the run- ners. We had good material, he con- tended, but some of the boys would not train. Letters were awarded to ten harriers, whom Coach Gracey gives the following positions: First, William Zapalski; sec- ond, Victor Lavinskas; third, Frances Mondro; fourth, Thomas Evans; fifth, John Jeffrey; sixth, William Pegler; seventh, Ervin Rutkowske; eighth, Erwin Wojtowicz; ninth, Norman Wojtowicz; tenth, Anthony Yurenka.

The Bears broke a 1-1 tie in the final period and scored two goals to win 3-1. Captain Orr scored the lone tally for the Red and White stick w ielders on a long shot from center. Mackenzie had her hands full in her game with Western Two goals late in the game decided the issue. Captain Orr and George Schwab were the outstanding players on offense, while Grieger, Austin, and Trapp bore the brunt of the attacks of opposing teams. Fettig.

Fotiu, Perry Morris I DIDN ' T think we ' ci win half of our games, Coach Gracey said at the close of the season, but the squad developed the best of any that I have ever had. The disappointment of losing the first game faded after our cagers squelched Royal Oak, Cass, and Eastern. Then the Cowboys finished their pre-season schedule by trouncing Hamtramck and South- eastern. After opening the league season with a victory over Central, the Red and White quintet held fans breathless during three overtime periods with Northwestern before they finally won. Highland Park upset matters and created a four-way tie when the Bears beat the local cagers by a slow stalling game In the West-Side playoffs Western defeated Southwestern and Northwestern in two fast games, the Colts getting not a single short shot. The Cowboys put up a magnificent battle in the championship game against Ham- tramck. With three minutes to play Western was seven points behind, but a whirlwind rally fell one point shortj|of tying the score. Bill Morris, high scorer, was chosen for the all-city team, while Leo Fotiu gained a berth on the all West-Side team. Dutch Jankowsky was noted for inter- cepting passes, Edwin Gerisch for tallying short shots, and Norman Meier for out- jumping opposing centers. But according to Coach Gracey, the best all-around player was Louis Perry. -H Si: :i - — Page Eighly-Jour t- tz -va Top row: E- Levine, E. Schutt. M, Scott. M. Wrenback, Coach Sibl ey.

In 1929-30 the girls were called the greatest team ever to represent a Detroit school by most critics. That season, after the smoke of the last battle cleared away, the Cosmos of Hamtramck were crushed with a score of 50 to 12. This year ' s sledding wasn ' t so simple. Captain Ann Gedris serving her second year as captain and also as the best de- fensive player was the only member of the veteran squad. However, last year ' s sub- stitutes have developed into excellent material, all chosen for their spirit and ability from the girls who came out this season. ' Championship cups and letters have been taken from all the girl basketball players this year, but this did not dampen our lassies spirit. First they won from Holy Redeemer, 20-8, ne.xt they downed Southeastern, 18-14. They emerged tri- umphant over the Commerce maids, 47-4, and over Central, 25-15. The Reserves held the girls of Sacred Heart to a 24-24 tie. Lacking their usual vim the cowgirls were defeated in another non-league game with Hamtramck, 10-9. Western girls won their four scheduled games with Northwestern, 28-23, North- eastern, 29-14, Northern 17-10, and tied with Hamtramck 12-12. If any team deserves city championship, our girls make up that team. Ann Gedris, Marie Meier, Julia Prokopp, Alice Jackson, and Elizabeth Scott have played their last ■ game. Alma Miller is the only regular left, but Edith Levine, Helen Janulis, Marjorie Scott, Edith Schutt, Mildred Wrenback, and Irene Lingenfelter are most promising players for next year ' s varsity. •t- ltZ M i f ■••• Page Eighiy-five -♦ •i: =1 Front row : J Mondro, F.

The team won three dual meets by com- fortable margins, a better record than last year. It was not strong enough, how- ever, to turn back Northwestern, Redford, or Highland Park, though scoring many more points against these teams than in previous seasons. Wonsik showed his versatility by com- peting in the two free style sprints and the di ing. Against each of the three strong- est teams in the city he piled up ten points or more; in every other dual meet he col- lected fifteen. Captain Anthony Sinkie- wicz and Melvin Koepke did double duty also; Sinkiewicz swam in the 100 yard backstroke and the fifty yard free style, while Koepke competed in the 50 and 220 yard free styles. In the city preliminaries Wonsik broke the 50 yard free style record of four years standing. He also qualified in the 100 yard free style and diving. Third place in both swimming races was the best he could take in the finals. — 4-i lI :i®2r-« - Pufie Eighly-, ix - t- BC ztim iwimmmg Front row: B. Wojtaszik, M. Thorns, C. Keith. D. Farrar.

Foss, B- Wojtazik THE girl tanksters of Western swam in bad luck this year though they were ably led by Captain Dorothy Farrar and coached by Miss Edmunds. The only veterans returning to the team this semester were Doles, Bilsky, and Captain Farrar. In their first swim which was with Cass, the cowgirls lost with a score of 44-38. This was the first game of the season, their hopes were high, and they fought hard. However, the diving brought down their points. When they swam next, against North- western, they scored some good points and fought hard, but lost nevertheless with a score of 103-23. They were up against a real team among whose members were the state and city champions. Playing Southwestern our lassies did pretty well. At least an improvement over the beginning of the season was evident, though they lost 51-31. After the scheduled season was over, they swam in two invitational meets. The first, with Hamtramck, resulted in a 54- 37 score. The second, with Northeastern, came out 68-27. The coach and captain pin much hope on next year, for there will be a number of veteran swimmers, who have shown much improvement and are expected to display it during the coming season. The high scorers of the season, who made over fourteen points are: Farrar. for the crawl, Foss for breast stroke, B.

Matz Right Field Orr Left Field Kobane Third Base Wonsik Center Field Theisen Pitcher M Matz Catcher WITH a few members of last year ' s squad forming a nucleus, Coach Higgins has built up an excellent team for this season. He has introduced a new system of directing the team by having a bench captain as well as a playing captain. George Phillips has been filling the former position, and Louis Perry, because of his outstanding work last season, has been elected to captaincy. Western ' s team won two of its first four starts. Our boys functioned per- fectly both in offense and in defense to rout Central, its first opponent. In their game with Northwestern, the Cowboys failed to get started and lost. The breaks were against them in the Redford game and they lost by a close score. However, with Cooley it was a different story. With Thiesen pitching in his usual form and his mates batting timely. Western defeated Cooley in fine style. The spot left vacant by the pitching ace of last year ' s squad, Donald Payne, was ably filled by Neeb Thiesen, a recruit, who has shown by his remarkable work against Western ' s opponents that he is a pitcher of no mean ability. Leo Fotiu, a one year veteran, has also pitched an effective ball in his assignments. On the batting end, Schwocko, Cadillo, Orr, Matz, and Perry have been batting hard. Able substitutes were found in Randall, Hartwood, Morris, and Phillips. —  - Bi: Page Eighty-eight - - t: ri ' -i- Track Bottom row: T. Evans, T. Donakowski, P. Kelly, B. Kochendorfer. C. Gadde, E.

Western lost only one indoor meet and that to Northwestern, city and state champs, by two points in the closest dual meet the Colts have had in five years. At the city indoor meet, Boyd Kochendorfer placed third in the 220, William Balog third in pole vault, and the relay team composed of Captain Erve Rutkowske, Eddie Thomas, John Jeffrey, and Kochendorfer, took third. This totalr ed si.x points, and placed Western fifth. The team was not so well balanced for outdoor competition, for Northwestern romped over the local thinclads by an 83-30 score. The memory ot this was somewhat erased by trimming Central 60-53. Coach Gracey had a whole track team in Captain Rutkowske, who competed in both hurdle races, high jump, broad jump, pole vault, and relay, often winning as many as three or four firsts in a single meet. Bill Zapalski was eligible for only the first two indoor meets, but showed himself a star in the mile and half mile. Others who formed the nucleus of the squad are Balog in the pole vault, Koch- endorfer in the sprints, Jeffrey in the 440. Thomas in the hurdles, Alvey in the shot and discus, and Sullenger in the high jump. —t- BtZ Page Eighty-nine Front row: E. Rettke. J. Edmonds. T. Kiddon. H. Cisco. Coach Edmonds. Second row: A.

The Cowboys easily vanquished Cen- tral, a strong contender. Victory again rested with the local netters in a close match with Northwestern. Highland Park was also turned back. But the champion- ship match against Northern was a fight to the finish. Here the Edmonds brothers, Bob and John, No. 1 doubles team, lost their first encounter. The third team, Erhardt Rettke and Louis Wojcik, downed their opponents in straight sets, and so the outcome depended on the second match. Playing long into semi-darkness. Captain Ted Kiddon and Herbert Cisco clinched the title for Western. Cisco ' s unfailing steadiness and Captain Kiddon ' s accurate smash turned defeat into victory, A tournament in all three classes of doubles teams was then held. Western won every place on the West-Side and two of three against the East-Side winners. Reversing previous results, the Edmonds brothers defeated their former conquerors, while Rettke and Wojcik lost to North- ern ' s third team whom they had beaten before. Captain Kiddon and . Cisco trounced Southeastern ' s team in straight sets. Bob Edmonds baffled opponents with his clever net tactics, while his brother ' s drives were dangerous. Rettke ' s steadi- ness and Wojcik ' s serve were notable. Adam Senderski alternated with Louis Wojcik and won a letter. - - tz :i -« Page Ninety •••- Sl- ;l@ Qirls ' Tennis First row: G. Ellis, K.

Our tennis teams in the past tiave always done well and this one promises much. Edith Levine, Margaret Fletcher, Kathleen Dammeyer, Mildred Boone, Martha Young, and Catherine Knudsen make the backbone of the team. Mildred McDer- mott and Alma Miller, though green on the tennis team, are veterans on the court. The schedule lists games to be played with Northwestern, Commerce, South- western, and Cass. We have beaten these schools with fewer experienced players, so we are sure to win our matches with the splendid team we have. None of these girls will be out next year, so the future glory seekers of Western have a big opportunity to make the team in the spring. Girls ' sport in Western has never been played up very much. Many girls deplore this fact and vow they would do anything to remedy it. The solution is simple and very apparent. If more girls came out for sports, there would be more competiton for positions on different teams. With more competition among would-be team mem- bers, there would be more school interest raised by the would-be members them- selves. When more girls were coming out for sports, when the interest was high as it should be, then would sports for girls be serving its purpose, and then they would have the popularity they should have. ■ -SS i: :i -«- Page Ninety-one - - c :i 4h - E.

The reserve finalist opposing the Cowboys was not Hamtramck but Southwestern who trimmed the local squad 24-7. The reserve victories were close, as seen by some following representative scores: Western 17, Northwestern 11; Western 11, Cooley 10; Western 11, Highland Park 10, and Western 24, Southwestern 17.

AFTER a rousing march by Western ' s band the football teams of College Hall and Chivalry Hall trotted out on the gridiron of Clark Park for a final encounter. Mr. Bovill, director of intramural athletics refereed, while hundreds of students on each side of the field came to watch and encourage their own team. College Hall scored first. In the second quarter, Kaczowski scooped up a fumble and ran through a broken field for a touchdown. Chivalry was not to be outdone and in the final fourth quarter hammered over a touchdown.

But I calc ' late it ' s turned t ' other way round now, True enough, Uncle Abe, To begin w ith, our ball toters kept their eyes on the league schedule with the result that we had the best league season in three years. Then Bill Zapalski took second in the city cross country meet, and his team took fifth. Perhaps you, dear reader, heard some of the caustic comments of Cowboy rooters after Western lost the opening basketball game to Holy Redeemer, And wasn ' t it just like a fairy tale the way our boys played the rest of the season ; ' Girls ' basketball, that all-too-frequently pale imitation of a sewing circle, is a hardy perennial at the local ranch. Those girls don t fool ! Some record, three successive city championships. Speaking serioysly (as one must about hockey teams) we are always sure of not being in the losing column after an ice hockey game with Redford. Two years ago it was a 2-2 tie, and last year the fray ended 1-1, This year, true to form, the score read 0-0, We wonder what it will be next year, As the city goes, so the school goes, Cowboy racqueteers have had good pick- ings the last three years. But that championship cup is much too big for one small tennis team, don ' t you think The baseball team gained a sweet bit of revenge when they rode Central 9-1.

Children ' s Bedtime Story The Two Frogs Once upon a time there was a beautiful princess and a handsome prince. The name of the princess was Mary. The prince ' s name was David. Ha ing fallen in love at first sight these two had agreed that on the morrow the princess should take the oath to love, honor and to be obeyed, and the prince was to carry his shoes in his hand when he came in after ten o ' clock. The princess ' guardian. Duchess Helen, who had the power to change the form of anyone she wished, was opposed to the wedding because she wanted Mary to marry the tin pan millionaire, Pi Face. So the evening before the marriage the Duchess crept up behind the love birds, who were cooing in the park just outside the castle walls, and with a wave of her staff changed them into trogs. She then took them to a nearby farmer and put them in a well beside which the farmer stored his milk cans the night before taking them to the city. With a cruel laugh the Duchess told the prince and princess that the spell could not be broken until they sat on solid milk. This made them very sad. One night after they had been under the spell for a year, they were ha ' ing a contest to see which one could jump the highest when Mary with an extra big jump landed in a can of milk from contented cows. Da ' id immediately jumped to her rescue and the two of them swam around all night. At fi -e thirty o ' clock the next morning the farmer went to the well and saw two frogs sitting on a can of butter. The charm was instantly broken. Princess Mary and Prince David drove to the parsons in their new Ford, were married, rented an apartment in Sunken Heights, and lived scrappily ever after.

(Long ears must be coming in again.) During the hectic debate preceeding the passing of the bill argtiments -for and against the motion were aired. Senator Stefanski declared that some dogs do not suit a plain long bob and that this resulted often in trouble with the boy friends. Senator Bury re- torted that they could impersonate a bob by doing their ears up. The senate decided that this was a dog ' s life and passed the bill. Less intelligent people may wonder why this doggy bill should come up before that of unemployment. Perhaps the senate is elected by the humane society. The senate might soon pass a bill pro- viding that all dogs with curly hair must be ruled off the streets. This should put thousands to work taking the curl out of airedales.

Views from the Ringside By Andy Kruk Bang! clanged the bell as Doug Kid Sprunk nailed Jack Gashouse Grieger with a horseshoe punch. The horseshoe was removed from his glove and the fight continued — to disfigure the two participants. Can you feature that? asked Lyle Wilson glancing at the swollen nose of the Kid. Gashouse Grieger and Kid Sprunk milled about in the center of the ring swapping stories. Then they ploughed in head first shi ering their timbers. They went into a clinch. The Kid drew first blood by biting Gashouse on the big toe. Gashouse retaliated by rabbit punch- ing the Kid on the neck with his corner stool. Grieger smashed a killing blow to Sprunk ' s chin sending him down to lace his shoestrings. The task completed, Sprunk banged a shoestring catch to Grieger ' s head. The suspense was maddening. Finally the doctor announced that the Kid ' s hand was splintered. Kid Sprunk has retired from the ring and is now writing a book entitled, The Slivery Horde. ' Wins Today ' s Brickbat SINCE WE, experts in the culinary arts, have profited so highly by secretes that we have dis- covered, we arc glad to pass the good word along to kindred souls interested in that marvelously interesting subject, COOKING. First, when you are frosting a cake and the frosting becomes stubborn and will not harden sufficiently to spread nicely, add one (1) cup of cement, mix well with other ingredients, and the results will be a smooth, hard icing. When making jello and the jello will not stiffen in time for your dinner guests, melt one automobile tire, and add to the jello. The jello is guaranteed to be stretchy enough to suit the stretchiest tastes. Since many young brides find it difficult to boil water without burning it, if they will add a pinch of starch to the liquid, it will evaporate and certainly not scorch. We wish to help other cooks in their efforts, and hope this contribution will help. We are undertakers by day, and cook only by night.

Twas a nice sunshiny morning As I walked to the gentlemen ' s store, I had made up my mind bright and early That my head should go hatless no more To get there took only a moment I opened the door midst a din, ■ Back brats into the kitchen! For what may I take you in;! Id like to get me a brand new hat Something tony and light, V ou know the kind that the young men wear When they go out stepping at night. Oh. sir, I have just the thing that you want It is London ' s latest creation, Let me place on your head this new silk hat My! won ' t you be a sensation. He argued and bickered around for a while But he finally won by the lining, I paid him his seven bucks and a half And left with my new lid shining. That evening straight over to Jenny ' s I went She is my best Irish lassie, Oh Wesley. she cried, what a wonderful hat! Be jabars you ' re gettin right classy. We walked to the sofa and there we sat She lay my new hat at her side, Then her big healthy mother came in Just a little bit longer than wide. My Wesley, said she, you ' re sure lookin fine With that she fell over the cat And to my horror and deep disgust She landed on top of my hat. Oh woman get up! cried I with a groan As 1 threw her off on the floor, There on the sofa all crumpled and flat Lay the hat that shall never be more. 1 flew from the house I knew not where And I roared about and I spat, But I hope that I ' m shot by the National Guard When I next buy a new silk hat.

I nodded my assent and followed silently as Jack, my companion in this secretly planned affair, led the way. The long empty halls rang w ith our slightest movements, and ghosts of people filling the familiar place by day seemed to follow closely at our heels. We passed a steep flight of stairs leading to a dark, gruesome region below, but we only shuddered and unconsciously hastened our footsteps. We spied a faint ray of fluttering light farther on and hurried toward it. As we approached, a huge white figure seemed to take form from the hazy air! A scream escaped my tightly clamped lips. Jack gasped and then laughed with a short, jerky sound. Its only the discus thrower, he affirmed. True enough! There was old Discobolus shining in the darkness. My locker was over to the right, and I hastily extracted the hook I had come after, and we scooted out of the building before the janitor, or a teacher, should inquire as to our business in the school at such an un- earthly hour.
