Purdy Private Larry faced Christmas morn- the celebration of that most wonderful event of over nineteen hundred years before. He wanted it to Ieem like Christmas, and yet. to him, it wasnit. He hreakfaated at 3 easy cafeteria on Hill ltteet, sitting near the front where he could look over across the ltteet at the Iunlit greenery of the perk. The rows of green, sober benches were tilled with crowds of more 10122: people: tired, sullen looking men, Ind faded, from, homeless women. Then the hay realized with a pang, . that others, perhaps, Were lonely too. I He sat looking a: if upon a play of the shabby tide of life, to strongly contralted with the groups of well-dreued, merry-faced people who passed along the sidewalk; on the edge of the equate; the very color scheme of the park itwlf-the green of the grass and the trees and shmbhery, and the riotous profulion 0! may- colored Howerh-it nil irritated him. HlviI-Ig Enished hi: meal, Larry paid his check and left the eltnhliehn meat, but not until the hright-eyed little girl at the cashier's desk had hidden him - cheery Merry Christmal. That, at least, helped out some. Ho cfoued the street mil enterei the square. Ragged little children were playing around the fountain with shrill cries Ind taunts. He wondered what kind of home: than rngamuflim had. Finding I vncant lent on one of the long row: of benches, Lmy wedged himself In between I gnunt-Iooking youth of nine- teen and I Hashily-dreued womn. Thinking, with a my smile. of that time-old axiom, Bird: of I feather Hock together, Larry tried to start a convenation with his neighhor, the 'youth of nineteen aummen. tWit: day, the Ioidier lad remarked with forced eheerfuimu. Uh-huh, ungrncioully returned the buy. It me u a nice day for Chriltmu, he awed, not dlunted by the other'l incl: of interut. Say, what's eltin ytIhWl returned the gaunt youth. Nice day for Chrhtmn-huh. Ye-h, nice duy for Chmtmu, In Inc without - dime te Imlh name. No ham, no nothizf. My 01' men got lure 'callle I' got canned put; school an' told me to go t' thunder. Nice CiIMIIIIl-Ililh! ' And the mhuppy youth dropped into an unhappy silence. I Thu Larry's bench companion On the other side broke the silence, if the noise and tumble of street cars and draws and the cry of newsies could be called silence. She adjusted her stringy jabot and turned insolently toward the soldier. When a guy talks about Christmas hein' a this: day and sits here, she nodded in the direction of the row of benches, there'u somethin' wrong in his belfry, lure Is livinvt Haven't you got a home eilher'P' nlked Larry. ttHome! Home did yuh lay? Say, honey, I ain't seed a home for so long .I don't know what it looks like. No apron string: for me! Say, how can you have a home and a good time, huh? Nothin' doin' on that gag. Better run home to your mummy, kid, before someone hurt: yuh. Nice day for Christmas! Huh! And she, too, lapsed into silence. The mrroundings of the little part: seemed suddenly distasteful to Larry. He rare, and walked briskly away from the bench where he had sat. Turn- ing his hack on the park he wandered disconsoIately about the streets. No- body had any home, it seemed. His experience in the park, aithough of a trivial nature, made him feel 3!! the more lonesome; and he gradually began to feel embittered agaimt everyone in general. An automobile full of soldier: and wholesome, red-cheeked girl! passed by. How happy they looked, thought OtNeil, and yet-. Well, what did he care anyway. Hetd be over in France in a few weeks, and most likely get wounded or maybe killed. Then this mood deepened. What did he owe to his country anyway? He had been wiliing to give hil life for his country, to give his life for even Iuch people an rthbse in the Iquarer-ancl he had received not one word of thanks, not even I kindly smile. Why should he give his life for these? , This feeling passed away quickly, and was followed by n Ienle of shame that main self-centered .and un-American thoughts had been harbored for even an imtant. - OtNeil looked into this shnw-windnw and that, until dinner time ap- proached. The year hefore-but he would not let himlelf think of it. Hit father had sat at the held of the table, his mother at the foot, and he at her Tight. Just a cusy, home-iike Christmas dinner-turkey and cranberry lance, mi a scarlet poimettia at the center-piece. At tent he would try to make it Ieem like Christnus, and I0 he thrust hunk hi: lhaulderl, tipped his nervice hut at the proper angle, and walked briskly into a restaurant which boldly hemlded to In emply-Itomnched yuhlic by mean: of a large, red-lettered placard, the fact that the bent turkey dinner in the city of Los Angela! wan to be had there for the price of one dolhr. - The bird was a very good one, the dressing excellent, and the cranberry jelly just right, but somehow Private OtNeil didntt enjoy it, and left his dinner practically untauted. The quick eye of the manager noted this, and he hustled forward as Larry wan leaving, to ask if there was any fault in the service or in the dinner that he could remedy. Although I very observing and kind-heuted man, he did not notice that beneath the Plenum, The dinner WM tine, lit. I FOIH' just wasn't hungry, with which Larry replied, there lurked n tinge of loneli- ness. O'Neil was not one to tell all the world his troubles. He whiled away the afternoon in a rather ordinary manner: a picture show and a sack of candy. The candy he gave to a forlorn little street urchin who had just emerged from a fight, defeated and penuiless. Then, with nothing better to do, he handed rm interurhnn cur and rode tq a suburb of Los Angelen where pretty bungalows and tall pepper trees and holly wreath: in the windows made the void in larry'l heart all the more un- bearable. As he wandered airnleuly up one street and down another, absorbing the spirit of. Christmas which these pleasnnt homes learned to radiate, he came upon a little white-walled, green-I'oofed cottage, with a service Hag hearing - single golden star, hanging in the front window. Some force, an unknown fame to Larry, but really what i: called Destiny, caused him to stop and linger in the shadow of a fronded palm. From within came the sound of a mellow-toned piano and a low, sweet voice singing, Keep the home fire; burning, While your hearts are yeaming-u- Though your lack are far away they dream of home. Thereh a silver lining Through the dark clouds shining; Turn the dark cloud: inside out . Till the boy: come home. While Larry stood there, listening to that song, I ten slipped from hi- eye and coursed unnoticed down hi: cheek. Perhaps it was the well of the music, or perhaps it was that God-lent tear, for the steel mesh of lonelineu parted. - The door of the little white cottage with the green roof opened, and a light fmm within the room that streamed forth upon the silent listener nllo disclosed a little, hrnwn-luired woman, who noticed the figure beside the palm with I alight start. Who in it? she allied. Larry tried to answer, but Iomehow the words wouhidt come and he only choked instead. t It we: then that the discerning eyes of the hrown-haired-woman noticed the uniform that urry wore, and noticed, as well, the little rivulet of natty water that the boy ahame-facedly brulhed away. That tune kind of made you feel hometick, didn't it 2' she murmured lympnthetically. ' .. . Yet, it lure did, OtNeil managed to articulate. Have you been in the pervioe long '1 Several months. 1 am going to F rance inn few weeks, he replied. . . Larry atared put the quiet-mamered woman at the patriotic little it; With the single golden star. Fin Yesf she answered simply, in response to hit unlpoken query, my boy died in action over there. Then, recollecting her duties of hospitality, 'Won't you come in for A while? The cottage has seemed pretty lonesome since my Denny-hoy went away. And the light of true mother-Iove shone in the link brdwn-haired womnnIs eye: as she mentioned the name of her boy. Why. yes, replied OINeiI, surprised at his own willingness, I'd like to. The slight ice of formality wan noon broken. In a few momenta the two were chatting away as if they had known each other for years. l'My, but it doe: seem good to have a boy around the hem again, the hrnwn-haired woman remarked, on Larry reached for o welI-thumbed ukulele. nDanny was always a fuldling away on name instrument. I gave him tho! just two years ago tonight. Tickled! He not right down, a: noon on I gave it to him, and began to pick out a tune. IMislouriI was the piece I liked the beat. We would sit out on the front steps, Danny and I, after supper ill the lummer, and he would play 'Miuouri' and I would hum along with him. We certainly were great pals. The boy begun to finger the Hawniinn instrument. Presently he broke out into the little hrnwn-haired woman's favorite piece. He bed a loft hori- tone voice, and as he sang, the Donny-Iels mother listened with twisted hond- Ind gliltening eyes. Thnt does sound good, she exclaimed, u Larry hnished. But if we sit here talking. there won't be any dinner for lll. You'll Itay, won't you? Larry nlsented with little henitnncy, If I won? be too much trouble. nWell, then, III! start things going. You sit where you Ire, end make yourself comfortable. nDun you mind if I come along ? I olwoyn peeled the potntoel for mother. Dear, no. Come right Ilong. I'm going to have steal: Imothered in onions and mashed potaluel. Theta better then hotel turkey and cranberriel, Larry Imwered. The two entered the kitchen. Larry perched on the kitchen table, and the little hrown-hnired women buaied herself I! the stove. There'- the po- tntoes, and there's the peeling-knife, the mid la the boy whiltled I bar from Where Do We Go 1 rom Here, Boys?

His chum: would have described him an a pianotype, grand, squire, and upright. Becnuse of theme qunlitlea he was sent as school representativa to an athletic convention to be held in the neighboring city. Here in the coum of the week he met an old playmate. 0h, do you remember, asked Mary Louise, the time we cut lclwol to go :wimming and how we were kept in, making up time for A month? t sure do, amwered Andy. and how I got twice u much time an you because you looked innocent and l couldn't. Well, Andy, I found all those old pleturel last week. You'll have to come see them before you go. You will, wonlt you? 1 live at 1313 Park Boulevard. ' Andy said he would be charmed. In accordance with the charmed idu, the following night he put on his highest collar, and his newest, and molt blanphemoun tie and aallied forth to pay hi! respects in the lady of 1313 Park Boulevard. He was greatly absorbed in mentally tnhuhting all lain jokes and topics of conversation, which might come in handy during the evening. in fact, he was lost, not only in thought but else in reality. After many and devious turns it wan with a sigh of relief that he reached a lump post marked Park Boulevard in the 1300 block In I few moment: he located 1313. It won with another sigh of relief and anticipltion thnl Andy straightened lli'l collar, Iettled hi: tie, ascended the stem, and rang the door bell. From hr up the street came a newsboy'l cry of Uxtm, Uxtra, all about Jim JeEriell Andy wondered what almut Jim JeErlel. He mammal lo noun him- aelf to read the card above the hell. To his horror he read the name Brown imtead of Smith,--l1e had the e wrong house! Andy WM puz- zletl a: to a course of proce- dure. It we: too lute to run any. Should he explain and Ipologile? Hi: inherent char- acteristic lnerted itlelf, and he neither run nor apologized. He tried bluff. At thi- polnt the door wan opened by a neat maid. Andy fished in his mind for any name but Brown, and u Jelfrieu won the name he had heard last, he very politely in- quired for Mr. James Jetiriel. . iiMr. JefEriel is in anti will he glad ta see you, replied the maid. He ha! been expecting you for some time now. Andy was dumfoundeti. He surely was in a men. A fumbled mm of phrase: such es, ler. Jeffriel home, expecting him, glad to see him, ran through hie mind. 01:, Yes, probably, he muttered. Nevertheless Andy followed the maid into the living room and auto- matically sat down. He was IO confused that he described his brain action as running in circles and Itars. He caught a lifewsized picture of Jim Jeffries, the lighter, as a three-hundred pounder who couldn't buy anything ready made but :- pocketihandkerchlef. He was completely surprised when instead of the immortal Jim he was confronted by a little old gentleman in gray, with tide whiskers. llWell, well, murmured the little man, If it isnit Sammy Parsons. I certainly am glad that you came to see yuur Uncle Jim. I was afraiti you weren't going to get here. You've got the Personal eye: and hair, but your mother'srfatherls nose and chin. Why Sammy, boy, you look so like the . Parson: that I'd know you any place. Andy swallowed hard and liltened to the old man talk on, lietenecl to the birds twitter? as he called it, wondering what held let himself in for, end who in the deuce he wan suppmed to he, and how he we: going to get himself out of his predicament. He was amused from his not too pleasant thought: by a pause where it seemed something was expected of him. k0h yes, what was that you were saying? inquired Andy. You remember little Sepphira whom you used to play with, donit you 7 repeated the old men. 011, surely. Most surely. Why certainly. Indeed. i never could for- get her? insisted Andy. iiWer continued the eager little man, ill called her, she will be dawn immediately. Andy groaned. With a name like hen she probably would be very dull. He felt 'vary much like going ouuide and getting the air. So he began a eerie: of protestations against her coming down and excuses for his own exit. . ill should like very much to eee Sapphira, but you know, Mr. JeEries, 1 jun dropped in. I am in quite a hurry. My train leaves in twenty minutel. live got to get back to my mom and pack. No, I can't spend the night in town. Are there any message. you would like to lend to the folks at home '1' Just then Sapphire: entered, and at light of her, Andy changed his mind and nettled his collar and lie. iii'mlmhira, you remember little Sammy Parsons, donlt youiw Mr. Jea'riel was saying. lll cnnlt decide if he looks more like the Person: or the Johnsonl. What do you think? i , Sapphirajhook hand: with the Huslered Andy and after a critical impec- Eight ' mm 3i: ANANIAS AND SAPPHIRA an: tion remarked, Well, father, l cantt see that he resembles either family. It seemed to Andy that she laid this a little maliciously. . Oh yes, indeed? he protested, ttewerym-le says that I am the living Image of my Grandmother Parsons except thole that say I look like my Grand- father Parsons. , Mr. JeEries soon made that customary and embarrusing remark that young people liked to he left by themselves, and withdrew. A moment of painful silence was broken by Sapphire with, And how are ail the folks at home?' hVery well, indeed. Somehow Andy began to feel Ilightly uncom- fortable. ttAnd how is your brother? Oh, he in very well, very well indeed. So Very happy with his wife and little family. Andy frankly wanted to fund the way out. ttls your Grandmother Parsons as strong as mull? Oh yes! She is very strong and healthy for a woman of her age, very healthy;:' Andy mentally patted himself on the back with Ill, Oh, gee, thin 18 easy ttls Dorothy Lewis married yet? inquired Sapphire. No, but soon to be, if 1 can read the Weather sign: aright. You nee her great uncle twice removed departed this vale of tears, on now Dorothy wean a tragic smile and the latest mourning.

The gentle Dorothy is probably the nigger coo . He tut about for some topic of conversation to divert her mind. He glanced It the newspaper on the table. A musical comedy notice! Andy launched into the subject of musical comedies with all his might. Hare he felt. that he was on a safe topic. He told her of the musical comedy presented by his Frat. in which he had danced in the chorus. Andy proved very unuh ing, and Iinally to illustrate his points, he pulled. out his picturel of the cut and of scenes about the school. The evening came to an end, as all good thingl- will do. Before he left they planned to see Cheer Up the following evening. Why, from what you said when I came in I imagined that you were in quite a hxrry. By actual count your train left an hour and forty-fwe min- utes ago. Oh, did 1 say that? asked Andy rather ahuent-mindectiy. Well, I've changed my mind. But he hnd the grace to blush.

That evening as the ciock neared tWelve the cram! of young people paused in their dancing for a moment before a siikeu American Hag hung over the door. Each uniformed man, soldier and sailor, stepped forward and laid a written resolution for the coming year in a little basket beiow the soft fold! of Did Clary. These were to be read later. i Unmindfui of the hour and the appropriateness of the act, Phyllis went up the stairs two at a time, leaving her guests in the rooms below. She peeped into her father's study. Only the slowly burning open fire splashed the room dimly with light. She shut the door qzzickiy, and with her back to it she read over twice a piece of note paper. ttUh-huh! What have you got there? came a voice on! of the shadows. tiHello, Hal! Whewhy are you poking around here ?i, W am not poking, with grave dignity. I am writing a diary. But my, what is that you have there? A New Year's resolution. And she securely fastened it with the pin that held her rows in the soft folds of her belt. Then changing the subject, Hal, 19:93 see your diary? Not on yuur-exislence. The young man shut the hook tightly. Ha h-d rather bright auburn hair which might, or might not, account for his Je- termined dispoaition. He eyed the aowers that heId the hidden paper speculatively. I did not know you could write books, Hal, she laughed softly. I am not writing them so youid notice it. This is only jotting down events-and resolutions. For the first time his features relaxed into a smile. He sattled hilmelf more comfortably into the chi: and stretched out his leg: to the blaze. How- ever, he never looked away from where she halF perched on the edge of the tabie, as if for high. There was careful absence of any expression on her face to suggest a possible interpretation of what she might be thinking. 01:, yes, lhe gave a little Itati forward, tiDo tell me what you are awearing DE from, Hal. The ulual things-tobacco, club, and all that ? t None of them. This time if! big. That is why I came up here to meditate. Phyllis looked down at the tip of her satin slipper and wiggled her toel.

Myriam continued to scheme while her grammar lny unopened on the hue. Myriam, it was her mother's voice calling, but it seemed dimly remote end minty to Myriam, for her mint! was filled with e viaiun of the coming party. She law herself as the center of attraction, attired in her new then and slippers and having us a'n escort the most popular boy in high nchonl. She did hot think of the reputation her elcurt had among the best students in the :chool, nor Ilid the care at the time, for her mind we: tilled with the glamour of the coming event and the jealousy of the other girl: when they should see her popularity. Myriam, again her mother called, th'u time in n more distinct voice I: if the were Approaching. Yea, came the mwer rather impatiently from Myriam who was still Introunded hy the enchantment of her thoughts. ttYeI, whet in it? Hersh a letter from Camp Lewis, dear. A Ietter-fron1 the camp? 0h mothermn. Suddenly Myriam'u visions Red and the present became a reality. She quickly stipped from her chair and rushed into the living room hanging the library door EB it nearly bunt from it: hingeu. Give it to me, quick! 'she demanded, snatching the letter from her mntherk outntretched hand. We from Uncle Ralph, the exclaimed, us her eye caught the return address in the upper lefthand comer. Haltily the melted herself on the living room rug and deftiy tore open the envelope. The tint words which met her eye were, Dear Madam t'Who could have writ- ten the letter? Her Uncle Ralph never addressed her in thet manner. There must be some mistake; the letter mult not belong to her. Those were her Em thought. Once again she begun. Dear Madam, Just I few lines to let you know I received your welcome letter, and not finding my one else by the same name, have concluded the letter WM for me. I h-ven't figured out yet why you celled me uncle, because I Invent! my nephew: or nieces, but I gueu it's all right. If you care to answer thin letter, I lhould be glad to know a little more about you, and how you happened to write me. Hoping you will amwer, l rennin Yours renpectfully, Ralph Edgewood, Co. R, 342d Infantry, Camp Lewis, Wash. annnn For a second Myriam wan speechless. Then a cry of ciipmay burnt tram her. 01: mother, she cried in horror-strlcken tones. Oh mother. the lwfuleut thing has happened! Ohm and she guped again as the enormity of the situation dawned upon her. Mother. my Hrs! letter to Uncle Ralph went to the wrong person. Then a torrent of wards followed. And to think that lint letter of all letter: should not have gone to Uncle Ralph! It was a good, long eight pages, too. Oh, and I just laid everything I thought of at the mo. ment 1 was writing it! And mother, I began it What adored and revered Uncle,' and ended it lYour most heartsick and lonesome niece? Just think, he read every word of thnt letter and the middle wan the want of all. What will that boy think, anyway? I'm glad he won't ever see me. llm sure I'd die of mortiflcntion it I had to look him in the face. I guess llll have to answer his letter, though, and explain the mistake. After many more such exclamations, Myriam calmed her rulHed Itate of mind enough to get out her letter paper and mlwer the letter and explain the mistake. A: the continued to think about it, the more unusual and romantic the error appeared. Just think of such an occurrence happening to her. Why it didnlt teem possible, but as it had really happened she might a: well make the best of the mistake, she thought to herself as she wrote. So thinking, the added a poltscrlpt stating that she would be glad to hear from the writer again, and then mailed the letter in: flutter of excitement. For week: the train: had been steadily emptying into Camp Lewis their mined: of drafted men from all parts of the West. Some had already been there for several months and were partially trained; others had been at camp but a few clays and were a: yet entirely new to the usual conditions of the tr-ining camp. Among this group was Ralph Edgewood, a young man who h-d nrrived from Wyoming. He had been called by the last draft from the only cantinwed work he had ever known, and since he had few friends amt! no parent: or relative: living, there was no one to hold I reltraining lnhuenee over him. He felt as though no one: cured whether he followed the right or wrong path; no one sympathized with him in hit trials or disappointments, no one rejoiced at hit succeuea and progress. What wan the me of it all, anyway? had been his last thought n he left hi. tent that afternoon for the camp postoiiice. He really had no reason at all for visiting the ol'hee, for he had received but one letter since he had en. terecl camp. Nevertheless, if only to break the continuecl monotony of camp 'routine, he decided to walk to the pelt oEce. The one letter he had received had been very interesting and friendly, but then it had not been for him. The letter was evidently from some girl to her uncle, and the writer hid either for- gotten to put 'on the letter the number of the company or else trusted to luck that there would be but one Ralph Edgewood in the camp. However it wn, he had received the misnive. OE ecurue he had. answered it II loan :3 posu- lible, explaining the mistake, but from the depths of his loneliness had added more than the explanation. He had even bagged the writer, if Ille cared tn, to continue writing, but of course, he reasoned As he mailed the letter, She will probably not care to write to Iomeone she doesn't know. As he entered the low othce door, one of the men who was clistributing the mail for each eompnny called out, Mail for Private Edgewaocl. R 342. Several of the lounging men in khaki turned. They soon learned the men Fifteen whom fortune favored with frequent letters, and Private Edgewood was not among that number, as they well knew. As in a dream Ralph Edgewood Ac- cepted the fetter, and without a word turned and left the office, heading straight for his tent. He made no attempt to open the letter until he had reached and entered the tent. Then after seating himself on the bunk. he looked long and thuughtfuliy at the envelope, turning it flat on one side amd then on the other, Slowly and deliberately he opened the letter, prying up the Hip carefully from each corner. iiWhat was the use of hurrying when she had only written to beg his pardon, for who wouid wish to continue corresponding with one Whom they had never seen '3 he reflected bitterly II he unfolded the dainty blue sheet. At iength it lay open before him. As he read, his breathing began to quicken and his eyes to sparkle. As he finished the last word, he sprang from the bunk and with a loud itHurmy rushed out the tent door with the letter. He was going to tell the corporal the newn, for the corporal Wu the oniy true friend he had in camp. The corporal, kaowing how Ralph was struggling with lonelinen, tried to pmve himaeif a true friem! by taking a deep and sincere interest in everything Ralph did. As he himself was detailed to duty in another cnmp and we: ordered to leave the following week, Ralph would soon be left without the friendly, restraining hand he so greatly needed. For this reason, the corporal Wu glad when some one was found who would take a peruonul intereIt in his friend, and never thought to ask the name of the person who had to kindly consented to write. Four days later, Myriam ran to the mail box at the postmlnil whistle to End a letter postmarked Tacoma. This time she knew of a certainty that it was not from her uncle, but from her new friend, Ralph Edgewood. Quickly she tore open the envelope, The letter contained a paragraph in which he thanked her for continuing to write and also gave a short account of hi: former life, hi: being drafted, nnd hie loneliness at the cup. As soon as Myriam. received the letter, she sat down to answer it. She tilled in the heading and salutetion without any trouble but here she laid her pen down, for she had not the slightest idea of what lhe intended to say. The more she thought, the leu Ihe could find that seemed at all suitable to her. She couldn't tell of the dnmnnt she had last attended, and her enjoyment of the other girhf jealousy, because a buy such as he would not cue for such things. He might even think them frivolous and Iilly. She did not wml to tell of her last uutamohile ride, for he wouldn't understand or lee the fun in going out for a ride with one of the monk popular hay: in school, And coming home after twelve, andw-miiNo, Myriam quickly decided, th-nme of those things would -he of the least interest to such a boy. He might even be shocked. At length lbe started. her letter by telling him about school: how she eu- joyed her English work and how she just detected her hateful geametry. This wan followed by an account of a marshmallow rout her Philathel class had given an the beach and to which was invited the Baraca ctm of her Sunday School. Of course? she thought In Ihe told of it, tithat isn't nearly so excit- ing as some of the other things I've been to, but at least that wonit shock him. She aha added to her letter an account of a few of the thing: her claue; at Ichool were doing to help the soldier boys in France. After writing a few 51'3 ; more Iuch incidents, she cloned her letter and hailin slipping on her coat, ran to the nearest post box. In one of his letters, Ralph encioaed his picture, that of a line, tall, sturdy- lonking young fellow. He added also that he Would be pleased to receive a picture from Myriam. After considering this question for some lime, Myriam decided to send him one, so as she mailed One of her letters she also mailed a. picture. For many months the correspondence continued. In order to find some- thing which he' thought wouid be, interesting to Myriam, Ralph went often to the Y. M. C. A. entertainment; and field games which took place between the diKerei-ut regiments. He coutd not tell Myviam 05 the many nights 05 duty 59 'had formerly spent in the poolhall and at the card table when he hnd fell hopeless and lonely. If she knew of these things, they would surely oHend her, he thought, hand then she mv'lght even stop writingF Therefore, he gradually ceased frequenting his former places of amusement mad recreatinn and spent his time off duty at places which he fen would be of interest to Myriam and in which she would wish and expect him to hem During these months Myriam had been greatiy enjoying her coffe'pon- dance. She also. had begun to change her manner of recreation. A! first ahe chose the lens exciting aims of amusements because she must have something about which to write to her new friend, Before attending a party or entertain. mant, she always said to herself, ttWhat would Ralph thing of this? Would he do it T, and having decided what he would have hn'r do, she followed her decision. Many times she was kept from some good time because of her choosing to do only the things which would be up to RalphJs standard. Often her friends would say to her, Why Myrtam, arerft you going with us tomor- row night? or perhaps they wouM say, ttArc you gping to that party next Thursday night? and Myriam would often have to answer no. Because of her increaling goudy-goodynesa, as some of her former friends termed her chnnge of'apirit, Myriam tost much of her poplarity with a certain group of atudents, hut usher popularity with ode group waned it increased with another class, and soon she was a favorite with new friends. Sevaral month: after the preceding events, Myriam received a letter from Ralph in which he stated that as he was to have a week 9n team: of absence, be had decided to spent it at the home 0f M: friend. the corporal, who had just returned to camp from many months, work at another- camp. The latter did not speak of the place to which he intended to go. Myriam was glad to hear of his leave, for she knew from his hatter: that he hpd been. training ateadity for manths-and that he needed the rest greatly- She though: no more at the. newa, however, for on the following day she was to leave with he; mother fm- .Mgdum, a town about five hundred miles north of her home.

As it was hut three .days until Christmas. their departure must ' necessarily be hurried if they expected to Mach Medesto before that time. Because of :11 these things, Ind in her hurry and exeltment, Myriam quickly forgot about her letter, for such a trip wa's not an everyday occurrence. . Savantun On the succeeding day Myriam and her mother set out amid the usual buitle and hurry of an Implanned-fnr departure. By the time they were ready to start, because of their hasty packing there were more bundles than could well be looked after. Their baggage was composed of two bulky and awk- ward bags, two huge satcheh, a grip, and a large double valise. The trip was one of greatest pleaaure to Myriam, for she had Ilwny: enjoyed traveling, and became of her interest in the passing country and her vision: of the coming good time uhe was to have, she had very little time to think of other things. Only once did she think of Ralph, and then only to wonder where his friend, the corporal, lived, and whether Ralph was having as interesting time as she. Almost tee soon to suit Myriam, the journey drew to it: clone, and al each passing mile brought them nearer their destination, Myriam': thought became more and more fixed upon the joliy time she was to have. Finally, after what seemed to her an interminable journey, the train gradually slowed down at the statian. In the noise and confusion Myriam and her mother gathered together their bags and valises and left the train. Mn. Barlow went ahead carrying the one large valise and the small grip while Myriam managed to gather up all the smaller bags and satchel: in. wild dil- Erdgr, the two small and unwieldy bags under her arm and a satchel in either an . Just 8.! they entereti the station, both bags slipped from under her arm and fell with a thud to the floor, while Mrs. Barlow passed on unconscioul of the disaster, thinking Myriam was following close behind her. Oh, gasped Myriam as they fell, what next? I'll never be able to pick them up with all these other bundles. ' Before she had the thought scarcely cumpleted, a young man in khaki whom she had not until then noticed, ateoped for her and picked up the bags. Quickly Myriam turned to thank him. She stopped speechiess. At the same moment the arm of the khakieciad young man holding the ham dropped to his side and an utterly perplexed look overspreacl his face, By: this time Myriam had regained her lost power of speech. Are youAre you Ralph Edgewoud? she managed to Slammer. Yen, and a smile of recognition dissolved the perplexed look on the other'l face, and you-you are Myriam Barlow? Myriam put out her hand and be grasped it ioyfully. Not until then did Myriam notice the short, hoyish young man wearing the epnuiettes of a cor- poral, who had just entered. ' uPaul, she called suddenly. The young corporal turned at hearing his name and at the sight of Myriam and his friend talking together opened his mouth in astonishment. nMyriam, what are you doing here?n he cried. ttMothenr didntt say a word about your coming up for Christmas. And how do you two happen to know each other? ttWell, corporal, cried Ralph. Who was unable longer to keep silent, she's the girl Pve been writing to for so long. I know her am well as you your- self do. But did he? etWhy-ft exclaimed Myriam, live been writing to him for almost I year. 1 guest I know him better than you do. But did she?

OVER THE TOP By Eugene Wither '20 The substitute chairman, with misgivings, watched the mumbling crowd from the shelter of the green curtains. He was to have the privilege of ad- dressing them in a few moments, but to him it was not a privilege. However, it was too late to back out now. The bell rang, the crowd hushed, and 11.3 curtains parted. Duty called him.

MY YOUTHFUL IMPRESSIONS OF STUDY HALLS By Jean Lyman During my freshman year I had a very Itmnge idea as to the purpose of study halls. I imagined that they existed solely for the purpose of entertain- ment. I fondly thought that they had been originated by some kind loul who had taken this method of brightening his corner. In my ignorance I thought that the enjoyment of study halls was univeraul. My tint impression of study hall is still very bright in my mind. The bell fans with about half of the students in their seats. l was disappointed that there were so few, for 1 had been told that the big room was completely tilled. My dilappointment wore 0E when I glanced to the rear of the study hall, for there I hehelci an indignant teacher with a pile' of slips in her hand. These Eliza looked forbidtiing to me, hut I observed that the receivers glanced at them calmly, stuck them in their pockets, and promptly forgot them. Perhaps there vilias an exception tn this rule who walked away with a muttered, ttMeut old t ing. In about five minute: everyone had reached his seat, dumped down his books, and component himself not for study, as I had been led to expect, but for a very lively, social hour. These periods afforded a clearing house for jokes. Perhaps the children got over-noisy, anti then the teacher manifested concern in the shape of pink slips. I regret to say that in a short time I he- cnme very familiar with that teacher and those slips. There were a few people present, idwl ctudent: they hue been termed, who refused to waste theft time with their neighbors, hut sought pastime Ir'l their hooks. One at our clever pupils suggenled that we change the name from study hall to main! hour. The 31111! Pupil lnggested that a wciol patron be chosen to keep the conversational ball rolling. The true worth of this plan was apparently recognixed in time, for a patron taking the nune Student Governor. Wm ap- Pointed. . . Let me ny in conclusion that my idea of study halls hm changed. They are no longer a P1169 0f ll'EnI-Iaemint for me, but a period of hard, mental e 011.

He who spoke looked from face to face of a circle of boys that stood about him. He had been talkingo-presenting an argument, and having pre- sented it four or five times in tiresome repetition, changing only the order of points, he was out of breath. As he stopped for a rest, he had asked the question of his audience to give his speech a wisevsounding finish. Several of the boy: made remarks afhrmatively of small consequence and repeated them so that all might be certain to bear. While thus they were oc- cnpied and white the armor was regaining his breath for continuation of hi! argument, a quiet-mannered, :erious-faced fellow sauntered ureleuly up to the group. The orator saw the new arrival and straightway upon hi; argu- ment again he immched with frelh force inspired by the addition to his audience. - Anybody from the outaide-fmm another IchooI-coming here and onusing through the dreaming of one of our assemblies would say we were the slowest, sleepiiest, moat uninteresting institution in creation.

FROM LT. DICKINSON Dec. 30, 1917. I shall take this opportunity to appeal to the man of the otudent-hody to train themselves for their country: service. We are GOING to Win thehwar. We are maintaining the mast intellect- ually efficient fighting force the world has ever known and we must keep on making it more efficient. This memu that every man must be educated. This in a mechanical war and he must be educated both a: a soldier and as a trade:- man. To my mind it i; the duty of the schools to make a special eEort to in- terest men in mechnnical arts; and far more than this, it i: the duty of the Inc- to prepare themselves, and to be qualified to render to their country the greatest service pouible. .

Verle Albeitson H7 FROM WILLIAM REAGAN IN FRANCE Paris, France, Feb. 21, 1918 nl have but recently returned from England, where I spent two months taking a course at the Royal Flying Corps School, and I might better give a brief outline an to the wndgtiom in Engiand at the present time.

Not only have they lost their brothers, fathers, and husbands, but those whn were spared from lune: on the battle- Eleltk, in many ween, are the victims when the hBocheh makes hi: nighiiy visit; 0W London. But 'the personal grief that they may have sufferer! has not caused them to give up; instead, it has inatiiied such a spirit of self-sacriiine that England is today the busiest and most eiflcient nati-Dn at war. And it i.- mninly due to the part the women-are playing. In fact, the men are going to have a difficult time getting. their old positions back after W3 all over. You can go into any town and the sight of a young woman on the streets is almont un- known. Upon asking the question, as many of us did, 1Where are all the gigs? the answer was that everyone was doing some kind of wu-work. It'- I kind of spiritihatk going to win.

THE CALL TO ARMS There have been crises before In our school history which we have met shoulder to shoulder and overcome became each individual felt that 1600 other ntudents were fighting with him. When on November 2, 1917, the Wall to arms 1mmded through our halls, we rose again to meet the greatent crisis, and we are hghting now. more earnestly, and with more determination to win, than ever before. On November second out assembly In honor of Coach Kienholz wan far more than a farewell to one who had gained respect and admiration while with us; it was the incentive needed to spur us on to the realiza- tion that we, an a united student- body, had our duties to perform, our sacrifices to make, as well as had tho-e , whom we were sending from u: in another field of duty. The awnkening was all that was necessary. A pro- posal that we organize for united effort In war work was met enthunmtically and unanimmuly. As a result the Wark-Work Committee, of which Min Phillips wm chair- man, Heien Hinge, the Girls' League repreuentntive, and - Gunld Denebrinki representative of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, wan eltabhlhed Miss Phillipa found the work too heavy became of her numerom Red Cross dntm hm! did not remain in Hm capacity long; but many 0f the undertakings Whlnh have men been euccessfully carried out lay Miss Miner, are due to the thoroughneu. of her inundation work. For through the mml: trying periori, -Forww'x of people, Miss Phillip: bore the burden of responsibility and gave willingly Ind eagerly her time, her strength, and her heart. Under this committee nineteen sub-comrnittee: were organized; each with its representative from the faculty and student-body. This would seem to be fair proof of the determination that our work should be thoroughly and effectively done. ' Everyone found his place in the work of one of these nineteen committeen. The Junior Chamber of Commerce came bravely forward to meet the financial need. They contributed sixty dollars for general wnr-work, the pro. ceed: of I greatly appreciated concert by the Fort McArthur hand. It was the boys who made it possihle for so many of the girls to work. The first ship- ment of yarn was secured with three hundred dollars foamed by the Junior Chamber of Commerce. Despite the financiai aid of the buys, a rapidly-growing need for money we: felt, and it was to meet this demand that the idea of holding a school bazaar originated. The final result, the i1331'?! 0n Carniva of December fourteenth, could scarcely be recognized a! the outgrowth of the original plans. The entire faculty and student-body WOTkEd together with a oneness 0f purpose which secured such a success as had scarcely been believeci possible- Each one who but glanced over the tumultuously gay scene of F riday afternoon surely felt a. just pride to repay him for his hours of real labor. Mortals mingled with creatures of magic-land, and were enticed by them into mystic bnwers where pennies were painlessly extracted from their willing owners. When each one left at the end of that glorious day, it was With the realization that he was a little more tired, a little poorer, but very much hap- pier; it wu with the sensation of having done something really worth while, though apparently spending the time in thoughtless gaieties; - ' - '. it was with comforting pictures of smiles chasing tears from 591m Belgian bubyis face, or of a weary Ioldieria grateful ltg . Wan all the preparatory work worth while? Was the Cmy On Carnival 3 success? There is no need to an- swer, but to those who are convinced only by facts, let it be known that after all the expenses hnd been plid, $396.12 remained from the receipt: to he spent in war-work. $35.17 of this was given to the F tench orphan fund, and all the rest to the general wnr fund. Shortly after the carnival the Junior Red Cross was or. gam'zed and into this was merged the War-Work Committee, carrying with it all enthusiasm and energy for success. At the assembly of January twenty-third, Major Hall portrayed for u: very reathtically the war as he had seen it. incidents uni inch, as recounted by him, Were sufhciently stirring to Farty-s 211 an make even I would-hei, slacker feel the necessity for action end the deuixe to do hi. part '3: alleviating such nuEering us that pictured by Major Hall. At a specie! section on the failuwing day an apportunity was given to every high Ichooi. utudent to join the Junior Red Cross. A one-hundred per cent membership remitted, thus making it possible to form an auxiliary. Twenty- iive eentl, or its equivalent of eight houni work, wan the membership fee, and u a distinguishing honor each member received the tiny Red Cross pin. The first large drive, that memorable paper campaign, was made by the ulvege committee. The mountains of newspaper: which nearly buried the Icience building were proof that some were working earnestly. Immediately a plan was instituted whereby every giri in high school, would find work open to her, even demanding her service. The bungalow was fitted up with cupboards, tables, and lewing machines and supplied with ma- teriall. Each girl was asked to go there one period, or more, if possible, every week, and to spend this time sewing or knitting. The teachers of the home economics department willingly gave their free period: to the supervision of the work. At this time, March :i-xth. the hungaiow is a scene of tireless activity every period during the day. The report of the war-work of thin department. however, include; work eompieteti under the Wnr-Wnrk Committee. The girl! of the high lehooI, aided by the teachers. have made all of the following article 325 hospital garments; 228 knitted articles, including 30 sweaters, many Ical'fs, helmetl, wristlets, am! melts; 659 miscellaneous ntticlea, gush as comfort hngl And joke hoolu. Two Belgian relief hoxea have been sent; the Hrs! contlining 132 article: of clothing; the second, 151 articles. At the name time the home economics department has been doing other work, which per- haps doe- not sound In important, but which mutt he done. This in the giving of iecturet end demomtmtiom, and the writing of article: on food comer- nation. The boy: have nine been working: Before the ealahliuhment of our own Red Cross the manual aria department equipped the Red Cmu headquarter: with two cutting tables, shelving, walls, and other general equipment, and made for them thirty-Isix shipping boxes.

WATCH FIRES i I THRIFT STAMPS Patriotic saving is not only a virtue, not only one of the hast proof: of true, unselfish loyalty, but it is one of the necessities of the war. It was with the realization of this fact that the Junior Chamber of Commerce launched the Thrift Stamp campaign, securing Dr. Knowles of U. S. C., to present the new undertaking to the students. John Hall, manager of the campaign, received the desired reply to his application for oHicial recognition as an established agent, Incl the sales begun. Some purchasers chose to wear their stamps in the prominent place often as- signed to beauty spots, but their face value remained the same, in spite of all. At the time of going to presu, approximately $500 worth of thrift stamp: and want savings stamp- have been sold, though the campaign hm just been starts .

THE LEGION 0F LOYALTY The Legion of Loyalty comprises all the boys who Iigned the pledge to devote at least one hour a week to war-work; or, if they were working out- side of school,-to donate the equivalent in money. The boys of the Cadet Corps are honorary memhern. The purpose of the Legion of Loyalty i: to organize the buys into an eEective unit for war-wurk. It aims to provide-and assign definite work for it: members, and it will work in correlation with the Junior Red Cross. The Legion of Loyalty hears aimilitude to the military organization of our army. being divided into squads, companiet. and hatt-liom. Mr. Blake is Cmnmnder-in-Chief, and Gerald Denehrink is General.

THE PATRIOTIC LEAGUE The nation-wide call to the women anti girls in mci'iiice, to nerve, and to obey, was first heard in Long Beach by the girls of the High School Y. W. C- A. Club. In the week follnwing the Vesper service of October 7, 1917, when Miss Alice Moore had preimted the ideais of the Phtriatic League, an oppor- tunity was givn to the girls to sign the pledge, the same pledge that thoumndn - of g'n-Is throughout the United States have been signing. - hpledge to expreu my pntriotism h! domg better than ever hefure whatever work I 11an to do; By rendering whatever medal service I can to my gommunity andcountry; By luring up to the highest ntandudl of charsete'r and honor, and helping other: to do the mind, h- At this thye EfIy-sev'eu gifts took the pledge, gaye vyitingly the small mum of five cent: required In. order that the Work of th- organination might by: advanced, Ind ro- Fr'fty-me I . der which. he lives I! when-it mines to ceived the liltie button with the words Patriotic League In the blue square, - a: moot of their praiseworthy attitude.

Four great thoughts were forced to the hearts of all who heard that talk. In the first place, every girl owes service to her' mother. The second altegiance' Is toward the school, um!

The auxiliary was organized for women only, and a member of the faculty, wife of a faculty member, or mother of a student need only express a desire for service to be eligible for membership- That the members Were earnest in their determination to work has been proved by the amount nlrendy accomplished, prior to March 1. Three hun- dred and flftyeight articles, including the much-needed bath-robeu, sweaters, and socks have been made and returned to the Red Cross, while sixty-threa articles have been made and donated to the organizntian. The financial problems have been met by membenhip fees, receipt: from two teal, a booth at the hCarry-On Carnival, one at the municipal market, and n beniflt recital given by Dorothy Hess and Madeline Lupher Gardiner. e organization was fortunate to ncure both Mr. and Mrs. M-rslon, who spoke on Belgian relief, Ind inspired lhe members to even more energetic-nnd enihu-iutic work. .

One hundred and sixty girls attended the first meeting, at which plans were made fur the new organintion. The object there proclaimed was. to pmmote physical efficiency and clemncmtic spirit. The girls have organized on tile same plan a: that adopted by the boy cadets, and Major Alien: Dewitt: is to assist Miss Gee and Miss Thomas in the drilling.I h I Further than the trainingyihe girl! have another definite aim, to .send .an - ambulance to France. This is too great an undertaking for them alone. Con- sequently, onepf their first duties as girl cadet: is to see that the candylels day is al rigidly observed as the wheat'wu, and to induce their fellow students to gepgit those rucued nickek and dimes in the tiny pasteboard ambulance am . 'Any doubt u' to the seriousness and the earnestness of the girls entering ' the corps is dispelled by the pledge which every girl cadet must sign: ttln this hour of national peril. I pledge to render whatever special service ' I can to my community and to my country. I will serve, for there is much to ' do. I will give, fort the need is great.

Long since had the thundering noia'e of battle become a thing of small consequence to him. Upon his arrival in the front line itOver there the noise had had its effect on him, as it had on an the others, but he had be- que med to it and doubtless he, as many other men have said, would he lost With it. A respite, awaiting reinforcements, had forced idleness upon his regi- menl; and for the first time aince leaving the mobilization center, he had time to think; auch was the speed with which he had been movad, from California to New York, via transport to France, and thence to the' trench where he now at in a somewhat indescribable mood. - He had enlisted in the army; not from a sense of patriotism or the some- thing that makes men and boy: go to war, hut because he had been iicannedii Arum school, a feeling that he had not been given a iisquare deal, a; he put It; When the kindly old gentleman at the head of the institution had told him that he was sorry to take such a step, but he felt it necessary for 'the good of the school that he pass cut of its halh. He had not done all of the terrible things that a high lchoa! buy inay dd, but he had tried most of them and missed his footing on severed. He thought hard thoughts of the school at lime, and of the faculty in particular; he had said so, and. in public. 0n the memorable day of his release he had not'even. gone home, but had left on the next car for Les Angela and enlisted. ' He said to himlf that he hated the achuol andi all'thnt pertained to it. He denounced it from the front lawn to the athletic field and from the Science buiiding to the Mechanical building. Hndnit the principal driven him into thin ditch where he now sat with his feet in the muddy water. and his back against this bank of ice-cold ennh?

BARNETT III IIEIIOIIIAII Under a paii of drifting rain that greyed the sunny south windows of the assembly hall, sixteen hundred students gathered in the auditorium hut Tuesday morn- ing for the most solemn memorial services that the school has ever known. Principal David Burchlm rose to speak. Those students who have entered High School recently or others who may not have been so fortunate as to know Miss Harnett personally can never know the greatness of our loss. But whether it was your privilege to know her or not, there is not one of us here today but is indebted to Miss Harnett. With one accord we feel that she has been the best friend, the kindest, truest, most unselfish friend that Long Beach High School has ever had, It is impossible to exaggerate what Miss Harnett has been to this school. She literally gave her life to the school. Never was life more truly sacrificed on the altar of service. Miss Hamett helped to organize the first Study-Body of Long Beach High School and has been a member of the governing board ever since. She is the author of the first commission form of student government in Southern California. There is hardly a provision in our Student-Budy Constitution that has not known the benefit of her kindly interest and her mature wisdom. ttBusy as was her life, she was never too busy to take a sympathetic interest in the difficulties of others. She was always ready to reach cut a helping hand to the humblest student. Her faith in God, simple as that of a child, continued strong and unwavering to the end. And now that she has gone from us, we can but feel that she has just been promoted to higher and more glorious held: of labor. But in a deeper, true,- sense she is not gone from In. Miss Harnetl will ever be a vital part of the life of Long Beach High School. The services which the rendered to the school will re- main as an enduring monument to her as long as the institution lasts. But above and beyond this the beauty of her kindly unsell-ilh spirit will remain in the minds and heart: of students anti fellow teacher: at a blessing and a benediction to us all a: long as we live. Rev. Booth paid to Miss Harriett the tribute of the older world, outside our Ichool. wTi-in tribute we give Miss Harnett today is better than any crown that Europe can oHerfi he laid. Miss Harnett has given us not alone of her knowledge, which was great, but of her lpirit, which we: vastly greater. If ever the Ipirit of Christ was incarnate in hu- man form, that form was Jane Harnettls. She was in- deed Chriltlike. Here truly could the Lord God say, iWell clone, 0 good and faithful servant.' Mayor W. T. Lisenby, of the city of Long Beach, Ipoke next. She was a frail little woman, but of a great heart and a great mind, he said. Eugene Tincher, city commissioner, and an alumnus of Poly High said. Min Hamett had that power that is born of devotion to duty, and the years and days that have paned since we alumni were with her in the class-room have served to conaecrate her re- membrance. The school and the community are for- ever incomplete without here Mrs. June MacNee, member of the board of edua cation, was the final one to addrels the school. The hour of thnt which we call death, that terribly beautiful hour when all unrealities fade away, he: come to Long Beach. lAu ye saw, no shall ye renp,' and as Jane Har- nett has sown kindnen and service, today is ahe reaping the joy that is hen. We look back and see her long labor- with the schoolil affairs, we see her pouring over the plan: of the great pageant that mmie Long Beach famous, we me her at her church labors, we lee her patiently advising with the hoard of education, and always we remember her great motthiStnnd fast, and Serve,. -High Life. Upon the youth of America will soon devolve a grave responsibility. When the World War has been won by the sacrifices of free peoples, this Nation must solve intricate social and economic problems, elface in- ternational hatreds, and enhance the common interests of humanity. The supreme call must be answered by young men and women who think straight, act cuurage- ously, and see the Divine in things of earth. In no other way and by no other individuals, will the soul of cle- mocracy be saved. W. l... Stephens, Superintendent Z v.01.

Werrenrath is typically American. straight-forwavd, possessed of a beautifully liquid and well-trnined voice, and splendid Itage presence. His singing of two Kipiing Barrack Room Ballads was charming and not soon to be forgotten. In all his numben he dilphyed remarkable control, a Iovely range of tone, anti a voice vibmng with color.

Since diplomacy is nothing more than debate grown- up, debate then will play a ltelllr role in the lives of the nation: surviving the war. Thu debate in high schools must be recognized and supported. It should have its place among the major activities of the school and mount to an important place in the life of the student; A boy or girl who goes into debating gains confidence in himself. Thin is a valuable nuet. Then, too, he gain: the power of quick thought. of clear statement, and of accuracy. Debate, without doubt, is undervalued by the average Itudent. STUDENT-BODY SUPPORT The ltudent-body nupport given to debate this year has been poor. The students, of course, expect a championship, but how can this be pouible when debate is regarded as mere chaff? We are not doing our debuten jmtice if, when they come upon the platform, it is ta hce an empty home or perhaps :me hundred people, seventy per cent of whom are supporters of the opposing earn. Savanty-Eve students out of I Itudent-body of 1500 went up to L. A. Hi the night of the Ezrat clebnte. Since the debate waa-held away from home. there may have been some excuse for so amall a number, but there was no ex- cl-lle Whatever fur the poor aupport given our team in the Anaheim dehntq, for that was held in our own high schnol auditorium, and the admission price was but ten cents. Afmheiln brought over nqarly seventy stndenta, white Long Beach, known state-wide for her ,iazzt' and pep, could not muster fifty. The student-body expect thampionahips, and when they do not 8W them, they ttcmh the team: mm! the coaches. Ninety per cent of defeats are the fault, not of the contestants, but of the student-body. For the betterment of the stud ent-body and its activities, debate needs more 'and better support from. the Inhool. . L. A. HI DEBATE .' . A8 is tha general custom, Long Beach met and defeated L. A.

The team ponened real punch, few opportunities to score ever being Icit or overlooked. Everything that goes to make a winning organization wan present: speed, teamwork. and plenty of fight. When Coach Kienholz was called to the colors at a critical time in the season, the team showed its spirit by buckling claw:- and working harder than ever. During the three week. be. fore the appointment of Cyril Tipton as Kienholz'l successor, the men were under no supervision other than that of Captain Lawson, who acted as tem- porary coach. Great credit is due Lawson for the capable mnnner in which he held the men together. Tipton, who took up hi: dutiEI on the eve of the San Diego game, was also a very important factor in subsequent victories; but the lion's share of the credit for the season's lucceu belongs indisputably to Kienholz, who developed this years unit of veterans from the inexperienced recruits of the previous :eaum. The First game of the season wan held on home groundl, October 6. Ingle. wood came, saw, and was conquered by the overwhelming score of 40-0. Within 50 second: of the opening whistle, Baker ramped ncrou the goal-Iine for the tint touchdown of the season. Five more f'oilowed in rapid Iucceuion. The game revealed the teamh real power, and enthusium ran high a to future prospects. The following Week. in a game featured by countless fumbling, but lpec-u tacnlar tackling and wonderful open-fleld running, the team hauled L. A. High to a 6-6 tie. Although outweighed ten pounds to a man and qufering the 10.. of Lawuon at quarter, the Long Beach .eleven presented by far the mout eHec- live attack, am! was deprived of a vintory only by hard luck and lack of punch at the critical moment. ' h. After Hotlywood had canceled the scheduled game at the hit moment, Manager Reagan lectured a worthy npponent in the form of Whittier State School, OCtober 20. Although pounding the reputation of being n'tiscruppy aggregation, the Whittier player: were powerless in the face'of the formidable athck of the Long Beach foothallen. The gaiety of the proceedings wan greatiy added to by the presence, in the Whittier lineup, of four colored youth. The game ended with the score 34-6.

Dolley, who replaced thon at quarter in the first period, ran the team nicely, while Renim, at center, did splendid work in the kick-OEI. With the overwhelming defeat of the year befm'e staring them in the fate, and confronting practically the tune eleven which had won the State champiomhip the previous mum, the Long Beach tank'i outplayed, aut- fought, and decisively defeated the San Diego eleven the following Sgturday by a score of 27-3. The game was featured by air-tight football aind deadly tackling, the Long Beach line holding like a rock. Two f'orty-ynrd runs by Rodgers and several pretty Lawson-Lawson passes helped subdue the South- amen, but the credit for the victory hclonga to every man on the team. Lung Beachk secund league victory occurted November 17, with a 40-7 victory over Whittier. The Long Beach players uutguessed and outplayed their light, inexperienced opponents to a. standstill.

Backed by a Huge crowd of footers, the Long Beach eleven met Pomona on Howard Field in Los Angeles, Decem- ber 8. The resulting contest will go down in history as the most grueling and bitterly fought prep game of the year. Had luck favoreti our men mi any one of numerou: occasions, the result would have been vastiy different. As it wan, Long Beach had poasession of the bail the greater part of the time, and gained enough yardage to win savers! ordinary games. In all iustme, how- ever, it must be said that Pomona fought stubbornly and gamely; and earned their 9-0 victory. It was due to their work in this game that Rodgers and Renius were chosen for the first AlLSoulhem eleven.

At the beginning of the school year, we were notified that Pmdem, Whittier, and Long Beach were to 'be admitted to' membership in the City League. This causeci the lengue to be composed of nine schools, with the re- sult that an excellent schedule of games was drawn up. It was also decided that basketball should be made a major activity, and a lpecial anembly wal held for this purpose. The teaulting Vote of the student- body was almost unanimous in fever of the proposition. . Our first league game was with Hullywomi. Although our team put up : splem'iid game they were slightly outcluaed by the more experienced tiFoot- Ellen! . ' The Hotlywaod defeat did not discour-g'a our men, however, fut their One Handrail Two Vim and determination succeeded in winning the next three consecutive games from JeHerson, Lincoln, and Lou Angela: high schoois by large scores. in the Whittier game, four point; were enough to deprive Long Beach of victory, but the two Iinnl games with Polytechnic and Manual Art: com- penlated for the defeat. In the Poly same. the City boy! were absolutely out- claued, and the resulting Icore, 49428, was A complete triumph for Long Beach. The Manual Art: game was the Enal game of the season, and our C?Hha-touers only succeeded in defeating the Manualites by the close score 0 33-29. The majority of the guinea were played Without signalsyr team plays, but Coach Tipton did Iome very efficient work along this lme later in the semen.

Our first meet was with Lou Angele- High School on our campus one week after training began. Schatl was the individual star of the day, taking first pince in the diam: throw, the shot put, and high jump, besides winning third in the pole vault. Roberson won the one hundred and two-twenty yard dashes, while Fulton capped the pole vault at ten feet, three inches. Andrews took the broad jump in a leap of twenty feet; F-arrington and Pemberton, both new men, surprisedlhe L.

February Iixteen, the reinforcements had been added to the team and it clashed with Santa Ana, confident of victory. Schali again starred and tied with Denebrink for first in the high jump. Meicheljohn won the half mile, and Andrews the broad jump.

The Thanksgiving defeat wu evidently still stinging, for those Pasadena. boyi entered the' meet as if they meant business. Both Knight; and Kelley were sick, and 'Meichlejohn was not running up to standard.

Under the able supervision of Miss Eleanor Thayer, the Neriua Club has been one of the most wide-awake organizatimis in Long Beach High School this year. Besides promoting friendliness among the younger girls, the cfub ha: 6on2 an unusual amount of patriotic work. The year's work began with an uaembiy, held under the auspice: of Nerisaa, when a deep interest in the adoption uf war orphans was stimulated among Poiy H$gh students. Nerissa adopted Rachel Camille Ankilbo of Dthuizon, France. The money for her support was mixed largely by - Hag sale, held on the day of the patrietic assembiy fur the presentation of the nervice Hag. Some Red Cross work, such as the making of ambulance pillows, he: also been done. A: Christmas time, tweniy-five lonely old peopie were invited to an en- tertainment at the home of one of Nerissa's members. Each guest was re- membered with several pretty, useful gifts. A box of clothing, toys, and candy aha was tent to the club's war orphan. ' Toward the middle of February, it seemed best for Nar-issa to diaband temporarily, u the Junior Red Crux: and other patriotic duties wen demand- ing the time of the girls. Accordingly, upon the approval of Mrs. Gilbert, girls' clean, the work of the club as an organization was temporarily dis- continued.

This mean: competition between students and teachers in all activitiel affecting the we!- fare of the school. Order in the study hall: has been gxeatly improved this yen: by the introduction of co-operative government. Mise Alta Hall, in charge of Itudy hells this year, has rendered emcien: service to those in needx of help in their studies. It was through the co-operative governinent com- mittee that the girls? cloak room was remodeEed. There in now enough room in the cloak room for all girl: in cchoo! to hang their coats and wraps. But one of the most perplexing problems of the co-operative government committee has been the truilic problem. Although the majority of the student: co-operate, there are a few diwobeying the mlen of the student body. In order to take care of the situation resulting from student!- coming through the halls first and ninth periodl, the atudent-hu'dy has adapted a new plan wherein members of the boy? and girls, cadet corp: will be detailed each week to assist the cu-operative government committee by patrolling the halls. This plan promise: excellent results. - 01:! Hundred Twenty The committee this year consists of the Commissioner of Public Welfare Herbert Hindley; president of the Girlsh CQ-operative Government, Harrie; Raycraft; president of the Boys, Co-operative Government, E. Neil Stanley; Ind two faculty advise , Miss Olive Thompson, and Principal David Burchm. This committee in particular has felt the irreparable loss of Miss Jane Harriett. In memory of her, the comparative governinent committee is striv. ing to accompiiah the work she so nobly siarted. THE BOOK EXCHANGE - ch of the-atudent-bady is the Boox Exchange. Thi. acts in view: to provide the necessary supplies the study-body fund by the prom. ae-- An important bran department has two great obj for the students, and to hglp enlarge rived therefrom. ' ' The rental system of the exchange has grown very popular with the students this year. By the rental system the student may obtain a book from the exchange by paying 3 small fee. This not only help! the excllange, but saves the student! money. Second-hlmd books are sold, and the lost and found department of the school is also located at the eifchange. Henry Lowery has effectually performed the duties of manager of this department.
