The half of you people aren't sing- ing at all.” in o U—■■■ “Sunset” The sun is sinking in the West Behind yon distant hill. But oh, the gorgeous color It leaves behind it still The red ! The fiery redness ! The blue and golden seem To blend into that sunset Then fade into a dream. Beside my window sitting I watch the colors go Cntil the world in darkness And shadows seems to flow But one hv one the star-lights In heaven’s da'kness gleam. Then fade into «darkness As did my sunset dream So was it with my school-days So bright they flashed in view Then faded into sunset And all is darkness too. Oh. may the stars of Heaven Come one by one my way To guide my erring footsteps Forward from day to day. —Mabel Clausen, T6. James Francyl Howard Entered 1 )12: Boys' Athletic Association '12. '13.

If 1 am not worth the wooing. 1 am certainly not worth the winning. I lelen has the distinction of being the only Senior girl who has a diamond. Now we know why she is so interested in Home Economics, house plans, and stationary washtubs. Halifax. Hates (Really) Men. As merry as the day is long. She always agrees with everything Helen says as all good little twin sisters should do. Has the misfortune of being the littlest twin hut fully makes up for that by exceeding the talking- limit. Frank. “Makes Few Mistakes. It is the object of education to turn a woman into a dictionary. Frances likes nothing better than a good argu- ment, and she can always hold her own, never you fear.

Very Fine Person.” Vi Nothing lovlier to be found in woman, than to study household good. She's proficient with the needle as well as in the kitchen and she'll make an industrious little housewife for some luckv fellow. She didn't tell us to say this either. We think she has already been captured though. “Jitney. “Keeps Persevering. “Work first and then rest. Has the misfortune (?) of only having two names and feels that he has been shamefully slighted.

Has snapping black eyes and a pleasant little smile. “Rain.”. “Let Me Boss.” “The perpetual repetition of the same idea is weakening to the mind. Lyle would rather talk than eat and is far famed for his Assembly and class meeting speeches. Can also play football, even if he isn't very big and huskv he's quick. Always goes into things with a determination that wins. “Jeff.” “Gladys Practices Much.” “A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. Can make the keys flv on both the piano and the typewriter, and is an industrious student — usually. Makes a lot of trios to Jefferson—there must be a reason but she won’t tell us. “Dad “Derril's a Dandy Actor. “Let the world glide, let the world go. A care-free, happv-go-luckv sort of fellow, liked by everyone. Was never known to get to school more than a half a minute before the bell rang—usually a half a minute afterward.

S. one year he has won a place for herself in the heart of every Senior bv her quiet attractiveness. Has a particular liking for (). A. C. Dick Rather Thick Tongued. It is excellent to have a giant's strength. Dick’s sober and droll but has lots of good dry wit. Has grand brown eyes and is a dandy foot- ball player. Spends his summers in the hay fields developing his muscles. Doesn't seem to have any particular interest in girls, much to their sorrow. Hilda Hildegarde's Real Sweet.” Nature was so lavish in her store: That she bestowed until she had no more. She’s graceful and attractive always, and the Seniors are proud of her. Has a sweet contralto voice and occasionally consents to sing for us. Can’t be parted from Harriet longer than five minutes. Kink Jed’s Just Long. Doing nothing with a deal of skill. Was never known to go faster than a mile an hour, Jed doesn't believe in hurrying anyway. Would much rather study Collier's than History. Is very bashful especially with ladies and favors solitary bliss rather than married life. 5 Floy Esta Filer Ellensburg, Washington High 1912-13: Class Editor 12-‘13: Girls’ Glee Club 12-‘13: Eugene High 1913-14-15: Albany 1915-16: A.

It was the finest looking bunch of Freshmen ever seen that entered the doors of A. H. S. one beautiful morning in September. 1P12. Altho, at first everything seemed new and somewhat strange, it was not long until we learned the ropes and had settled down to busi- ness. Our first social experience was the Freshman Reception. As all of us had heard of what ’‘terrible’’ things the Freshman had to go thru with at these affairs, it was with fear and trembling that we went. But it did not prove so “terrible after all. and we proceeded to enjoy ourselves in true Freshman- like manner. At the beginning of the football sea- son. we felt very proud for had not one of our number. Edmund Tracy, made the first football team? As the year advanced many of the members of '16 entered the orchestra and band, and other school activities. and we were making our presence known generally. Soon vacation came and our first year in A. H. S. had passed, and we were no longer Rooks. It was with a feeling of pride that we came back in the Fall, ready to take up our studies (at least some were) and also, on the side, to make life miser- able for the incoming class of ’17. At this time several -new members joined us. taking the places of a few that dropped out. As Sophomores we became very prominent. Margaret Gibson was chosen for the debating team in which she did splendid work. In athletics we steadily came to the front, having three men on the football team, one 'on Jthe basketball team, and three on the base- ball team. The year soon passed and before we realized it we were Juniors, and as prominent as ever in school activities. In the spring the Junior Banquet was looked forward to with great anticipa- tion. and from all reports was greatly appreciated and enjoyed by every one. September found us dignified and wise Seniors, all ready to study dili- «• ntly and learn as much as we pos- sible could in the short time allotted to us. But was this our desire? Perhaps a few had decided to get in and “bone, but they made us fully understand that it was a case of necessity and last final scramble to get credits. The majority We’. e going to enjoy themselves to the fullest extent and make the Faculty and underclassmen long remember the class of T6. Senior Club was organized during the first semester, and many pleasant evenings were passed at the homes of different members. 'Pile four members of the debating team: Margaret Gibson, Floy Filer, Lyndon Myers and Lyle Bain, were chosen from the Senior class. This team was very successful, and we are certainly proud of them all. Our High School days are almost over, and soon we will go out into the world, some to college, others entering some business, but no matter how far away we may go or what things may happen, there is not one of class T6 that will ever forget dear old A.

(Hass Jpr°pb q? Soon after graduation I decided to visit the War Zone. I traveled thru much of it and upon arriving in Ger- many I had a strange adventure, which I am going to tell you about. 1 arrived in Berlin late in the after- noon and by the time I had reached my hotel and was fixed for the week it was evening. It was a beautiful moon- light night and quite warm. All thru the city was a buzzing and humming of voices conversing of the latest war news and bombardments. I walked out to one of Berlin's many small parks, this one almost at the edge of the great citv. Already the feverish excitement of warfare had seized me for at 11 :30 I had no desire to sleep. As I paused in my restless pacing, a sudden cry rose from the heart of the great city and looking up I was terrified to behold the sharp shafts of light that pierce the darkness just before an “Air Raid.” If you have never been in this predica- ment you cannot realize what the sen- sations are. The cold chills run up and down your spine and you know not whether to stay or flee. However, 1 did not flee but remained just where I was. As the bombardment began, I could bear the whistling of the bombs thru the air, mingled with the shrieks of the terrified citizens, while I stood appar- ently out of it all. All at once I heard a faint explosion and a sweet odor permeated the at- mosphere. My fright blinded my eyes for a moment, and when I was again able to see—Wonder of Wonders! I saw before me Fred Aldrich, not the Fred of 1916 but of 1936. The scenes shifted and I seemed to be in Washington, D. C, and when I saw the White House I finally realized that it was the President of the United States standing before me. Imagine my delight, when he asked me to visit the session of Congress. As I entered his private office, whom should I sec but Gladys McCourt at the typewriter. She had broken the world’s record for speed. As I entered the Senate Chamber I was aware that there was a great argu- ment taking place, as all seemed to be speaking at once. I paid no special at- tention until the words “I object, ‘T object rang sharply through the room. Where had I heard those words before? Like a flash it came to me. It was in the class meetings of '16. After com- ing to this conclusion I was not sur- prised to find that the speaker was Sen- ator Lyle Bain. Before I left I had the pleasure of meeting the lady of the White House, who, not much to mv sur- prise, I found it to be our former Mar- garet Gibson. Everything grew dull and when I was again able to see I found myself in a large hospital. The Head Nurse came forward to greet me and, did mv eves deceive me? No, it was Olive Mill- hollen. I went into the ward with her while she gave instructions. She an- nounced to the patients that Rev. How- ard would be with them in the afternoon and every face beamed immediately: I noticed one patient especially. His face looked familiar, vet I couldn't think who he was. Upon inquiry I found that it was Forest Campbell and that he was suffering with a very severe case of paralysis of the tongue. In a short conversation with Olive 1 learned that Francis Myers was a news- paper reported in Frisco and that Earl Scott was a world famous painless den- tist. I also learned that Helen Myers was now Mrs. Riggs and that she was living in Canada, and that Hallie had made her name as a great designer in Portland, Oregon. Maude Clausen was a great writer and had just finished a modern novel, the name of which I could not find out. As I left the hospital I recognized the janitor to be Jed Looney. All at once I found myself in a hotel and immediately recognized the clerk as Kenneth Phillips. In the parlor 1 chanced to pick up a newspaper dated August 1C. 1636. and seated myself to read until lunch time. I was surprised to read that Robert Roetticher had just written a new poem the title of which was “The Kud that Killed the Kow.” I also read a lecture that had been given the night before by a well known lectur- er (Shorty) Lyndon Myers. His sub- ject was “How to get thin and grow tall. Gilmore Hector had discovered a new method of reducing the amount of ration for live stock which worked something like green persimmons. Vi- olet Painter and Mildred Allen led the Suffrage parade the day before and Madame Floy Esta Filer had obtained fame in singing in a great theatre in Philadelphia. She was accompanied by Virginia Tomlinson, a great violin- ist. In the dining room T overheard a conversation which went something like this: “Who is the Chief Cook in this Hotel?” and the answer was “Mud Thacker.” Albany, Oregon appeared before me. Dear old Albany still supporting two daily newspapers, the Herald and Dem- ocrat. I picked up a copy of each and in glaring headlines on the first page of both I saw the following: Albany Boys Noted Characters President’s Rody Guard Consists En- tirely of Albany Boys—Famous for Good Looks. High School Education and Presence of mind. Under this was a list of the presi- dent’s body guard: Elton Gildow Derril Austin Rill Burnett Willard Brown At the top of the editorial page 1 read. Editor-in-Chief Winston Hender- son. As I gazed into space the Wood- burn High School stood before me. Great was my delight as 1 shook hands with the principal whom I recognized as our old classmate TIarve Curry. As he talked with me he exclaimed. “Oh. I say, you must come up to our house, my wife will want to see you. You probably won't be surprised when I tell you her name is Amy.” I visited several of the class rooms and in one of the teachers I recognized Blanche Ragan anad in another Mar- garet Dawson. In a conversation with Blanche I learned that Harriet Van Tassel and Hildegarde Spillman were conducting a dancing school at Froman Station. Oregon, and that Eleanor Bruce was the wife of a well known dentist. The scenes seemed to shift and I sat in a box in the Imperial Theatre in New York City. There was some sort of a musical comedy on. It was kind of hazy and I cannot remember just what kind, but I do remember when the -nirtain rose I was astonished to find in the chorus the following people whom I knew and suppose you all well remember: Beatrice Hanke. Kathrine Livingood, Rachel Miller, Dale Wills and Gladys Sharp. As I listened the music grew fainter and fainter and my eyesight seemed to grow dimmer and dimmer. I came to myself with a start and found that I had never moved an inch. I was still in Merlin in the same little park on the outskirts of the city where I had been when the raid first began. The only difference in my position was that one of my German acquaintances had come in search of me and was standing by my side. When she saw that I was beginning to take not of things about me she exclaimed, “Oh, I am so glad! You have been acting so queer! What on earth has been the matter? Then as I related to her my strange exper- ience, amid all the din and unroar she threw back her head and laughed up- roariously. saying, You surely must have been under the influence of a “Futuristic Bomb. —B.

This, our Junior year in High School, has been more illustrious than ever be- fore and we feel proud of the record we have made as Juniors. Through the year our motto has been—to be first in everything—and we feel that we have, to a great extent, lived up to our motto. For the past two years we have won laurels in every department of athletics while this year we have had the good fortune fto win the championship in both basket hall and base ball. Although there were no class con- tests in football, the Juniors who played on our victorious team this season, won fame for themselves in every game. Arthur McChesnev, captain of the nine, did exceptionally fine work this year and we are. indeed, proud that he is a member of our class. Loren Davis, our famous 220-pound center, is also a Junior and it will he remembered that lie is considered the best center in the state. Schultz and Allen were also noted for brilliant playing during the games of the season. We expect, also, to make our mark in track again this year as we have in years previous. Some of the men that we are counting on are: Roland Allen for broad jumping. Arthur McChesnev for pole vault and throwing the discus. Francis Beal for distance running, and Louis Schultz for dash and hurdles. From these excellent men we expect great things and—though there is good material in the other classes—we cher- ish a fond hope of victory in the an- nual class track meet. Notwithstanding the fact that our greatest success has been in athletics, we have been taking an active part in the other school activities. There are many members of the Junior class in the band and orchestra and we have also contributed our share of talent to the glee club. There is one thing, how- ever. in which we failed to make a good showing and that was debating. The failure was due not to lack of abil- ity in our class; but to the fact that we did not take the proper interest at the proper time. Recently some of our members in class debates have devel- oped unusual possibilities so that we feel justified in believing that they will be able to uphold the reputation Albany High has gained in debate. A very enjoyable feature of the year has been the various social gatherings from time to time. A number of Junior parties were given at the homes of dif- ferent members of the class and many pleasant evenings were spent. Our fin- al event was the annual Junior-Senior banquet which was given on the sev- enteenth of May at the Hotel Albany. 3unior ;poem Juniors, Juniors, oh so bright. When on deep subjects we cast some light. Juniors, Juniors, what can’t we do And all the classes know it too. Juniors, Juniors, we never shirk nd know quite well what it is to work. And in thletics we can all excel nd all the classes know it well. We always work, we never worry, We never rush, we never hurry. ( f our grades we’re always sure. Measures never can 11s lure. For the Faculty we have the deepest regard ( Kxeept when they won’t let us walk on the yard). We never make the teachers frown or sigh For to make us behave, they never try. In conclusion please let me say We’re always right the livelong day. We’re the best class the school has ever seen So Hail! Hail! to our Class of Seventeen. —N. D., '17. Sophomore (Llass :p°em We entered this school as Freshmen green, The greenest they said, that they had ever seen ; It was hard to study those dry and tedious books, While the upper classmen looked on in disdain and said, “Oh my, those Rooks. We tried and tried their good will to gain. But the way to us was not always so plain, For the Seniors standing around with faces in the air, Were constantly shouting. “Goodness, little one, don’t go in there. And often times it was the case. When across the lawn we all would race. Some upper classman standing by would see us pass And say. “Can’t you learn to keep off the grass?” But all those times they could not stay They had to pass and go some day. They are gone and almost forgotten. Those times when the upper classmen treated us so rotten. The class then got right in And got them a motto, We're out to win.” And through the years past and to come They all will tell you that we couldn’t be outdone. —Marciel Austin, ’18.

We. like all other Sophs, came fresh from Greenville, but while going through the process of Greening” some of us obtained four credits, (some of us didn't ). These credits enabled us to go to HIGH school where the title of Sophomore was given us. As soon as we received our new title, our color began to change. The change of col- ors added much pep to our class. The hoys made a big showing in football, while the girls won the class champion- ship in basketball. In baseball we humiliated the Rooks” and then made the Juniors a present of the class championship. It is needless to dwell upon “Track” for everyone is familiar with the won- derful work we did there. We do not star alone in athletcis, for while pulling down other “class hon- ors we do not forget our studies, for in English some of us have been known to do astonishing things; while in Ge- ometry Air. Wood gives us the cake for noisiness. Miss Thordarson compliments the girls for being able to burn more cake than coal. Aliss Patterson delights in teaching the girls to make pretty things so they will appear attractive in the eyes of other classmen. Miss Heist teaches Real German” and we all enjoy being in her classes. Indeed! our class contains a large number of students, and every student is full of class pep. All games (class games emphasized) were always loyally supported by us, we do not stand for class spirit alone. however, but when the class competi- tions die down we all dissolve and are always anchored back of the school. The upper classmen undoubtedly ap- preciate our ability to have a live party for we notice they always make an ap- pearance at the window before the even- ing is over, once making it necessary to call Johnny to have them removed. ()wing to the fact that we have such a variety of nationalities represented, we are allowed several more holidays than the other classes; we have Xmas, for Jews. Thanksgiving, for Turk(eys) and St. Patrick's day, for the Irishmen. This year we gave special attention to St. Patrick’s day. We gave a party, and Margaret Kelleher entertained us delightfully. We surely have covered a lot of ground this year, but we realize how hard it would have been without the loyal support and assistance of three of the faculty members.

This division is organized with departmental teaching, differentiated curricula, and other features which for- merly belonged to the high school. In- termediate School is preferred to “Junior High School in many places, although the terms are practically syn- onymous. One of the most fundamen- tal reasons for the junior high school is that pupils may he given school work that they should have. The usual meth- od of advancement in the grades is by promotion, which ordinarily means that a definite amount of work has been done, and a corresponding mark or pro- motion card given. In the junior high school the pupils of the lower grades are given work that was formerly taken in high school only. This helps them in their decision of a high school course. The new Junior High School at Al- banv has, in its first year, been a great success, and its different training de- partments, thorough equipment and good management have brought this about. Its fine, large gymnasium gives the pupils of all the grades an oppor- tunity for a physical education and training, and has enabled the boys and girls of the ninth grade to from good basketball teams, which, though de- feated several times, were successful in most of the games they played. The gymnasium has had extensive use, not only in this respect, but as a place for entertainments and exhibitions. The first Junior High band, com- posed of thirty-four instruments, has made rapid progress under the instruc- tion of Professor Lau, and by the end of the year was able to play some splen- did music. The second band, composed of fifteen instruments, has also made good progress, and the orchestra, though small, has shown improvement. The interest that the pupils have taken in their studies, their discipline, and their grades show the improvement of the junior high school system over that of other schools, and we feel proud to know that our school has been suc- cessful in everything it has undertaken.

Early in the school year a series of trvouts was held and from those trying out the following were selected for the two teams who should represent Al- bany in the Interscholastic debates of die season: Margaret Gibson and Lyle Lain, affirmative: and Floy Filer and T vndon Mvers. negative. The teams immediately set to work with a deter- mination to win State championship if possible and at least attain the goal which last year’s team had. Miss Burch was chosen as coach and to her much of the credit is due for the good show- ing which our teams made. She and Mr. Young devoted much time and la- bor toward helping the teams and Miss Burch accompanied them on all their trios. This was the first year of de- bating work for all except Margaret Gibson who has been a member of the team for three seasons including this year; but all showed ability and a will- ingness to work and proved themselves a credit to old A. H. S. The first debate on January 14 was a triangular one between Albany. Leba- non and Brownsville. Albany’s Xega- t've team met Brownsville’s Affirma- tive team at Brownsville while Albany’s ffirmative met Lebanon's Xegativc team on the home floor. Both teams won the unanimous decision of the Judges. The question discussed all through the year was: Resolved that the I'nited States should adopt the es- sential features of the Swiss System of military training and service. The next debate was on February 12 between Albany and Corvallis. A dual debate was held—Albany’s Affirmative team meeting Corvallis' Xegative team at Corvallis and Albany’s Xegative meeting Corvallis' Affirmative at Al- bany. Unanimous for Albany was again the decision of the Judges. On March 10. Albany High met its debating Wa- terloo at Xorth Bend. Only one team, the Xegative. entered this debate ac- cording to league rules and they were defeated by a two to one decision of the judges. We were keenly disap- pointed over the defeat of our team as that ended our debating for this year and lost for us the chance of gaining State championship but we are placing our confidence in next year's team to win for us what this vear’s team did not quite attain. The Student Body pre- sented the debaters with attractive lit- tle pins in appreciation of their good work and the honors which they brought to old A. FT. S. %o?s’ AtfyUtic Association Officers President ...................Lyle Bain Vice President ........... Loren Davis Secretary ............Richard Thacker Treasurer ..........................Guy Butler I lie Hoys Athletic Association re- sumed organization in the Fall after the summer vacation with a good deal of spirit and enthusiasm. (The annual election of officers resulted in the fol- lowing being chosen : President, Lyle Haiti; Vice-President. Loren Davis: Secretary. Richard Thacker: Treasurer, l.ouis Schultz. Besides the regular meetings there were several special meetings through the year and a good deal of interest manifested. The elec- tions for managers of the various ath- letic events placed Arthur McChesney r t the head of football. Gilmore I lector manager for basketball. Earl Scott base- hall manager, and Arthur McChesney manager for track. Upon the resigna- tion of Louis Schultz as treasurer. Guy Butler was elected to complete the un- exnired term. The football season, although handi- capped by the fact that the expenses were greater than the receipts on ac- count of the big games being played away from home this year, was verv successful. A strong full schedule was played and no games lost, while one was tied when we met the strong and fast team from The Dalles on Turkey Day. The trio to The Dalles was one of the most delightful ever taken by an Al- bany team and will long be remembered. The question of sweaters for the foot- ball bovs was in doubt until a start was made toward raising monev to pay for them bv the school fair. Much credit is due the committee consisting of Earl Scot. Roy Eastburn and Rov Reames. who with the assistance of some of the teachers and members of the Domestic Science classes, and a few of the most loyal boys in school, staged a very suc- cessful fair, i his start was augmented by the receipts of Tag Day which was conducted by a band of loyal girl foot- ball fans. Over forty dollars was real- ized and the sweaters assured. I he basketball season was more suc- cessful from the financial side than from the scores. The fact that there had been no I ligh School team for some time made it necessary to develop a new team and most of the early games were lost. The season was closed a few weeks early with some profit to the as- sociation and a good start for develop- ing a strong team next year. The baseball team appreciated the as- sistance given by the Board of Educa- tion in getting the new diamond in shape. The results for the season were quite satisfactory when the absence of a fence is considered. Two track meets were arranged and carried on with Eugene and Salem, but the third arranged with Monmouth was called off by Monmouth on account of had weather conditions and expense. The frequent rains made track training very slow and unsatisfactory this year. The inter-class contests in the vari- ous events were productive of a good deal of spirit and enthusiasm, as well as financial returns. The Juniors ex- celled in all departments and earned their numerals in basketball, baseball, and track. This means that although we lose several good men in the out- going class, still there will be a strong line to choose from in next year’s Sen- ior class, and with this material to work for. the Athletic Association should have another year as successful as the last.

I fpal Howard Ufome Economics (Elub The Home Economics Club was or- ganized in the fall of '15. Ibis is the first club of its kind to be organized under the allspices of the High School, and all the girls interested are eligible for membership. This year has been a very successful one. Interest has been keen and good programs have been prepared. In addition to our papers, we have been fortunate in securing ad- ditional instruction by prominent work- ers. Mrs. Brooks, head of the Domestic Art Deoartment at O. A. C., lectured to the Student Body on Home Econom- ics Day. Miss Davis, head of the Do- mestic Science Department of (). A. C. lectured to the Club on the subject of “Girls' Dress. Mrs. Dolman, also of (). A. C., gave a most interesting and instructive demonstration on Home Nursing to which the girls’ mothers were invited. The officers for next year have been elected and are plan-, ning big things for the future. As president for the past year I have enjoyed my work very much, and sin- cerely hope that the Club will continue to be successful each year. (Bivts’ .Athletics This year the girls of the Senior and Junior Highs have taken a very active part in all forms of athletics. The new Junior High has a splendid gymnasium and the girls were not slow in taking advantage of their opportunity. I his is the first year physical culture has been offered to the girls and it has proven a very popular class. There has been an average enrollment of six- ty-five in the class this year. Miss Metcalf, the instructor, has made the work very interesting and profitable. During the year the girls entertained their parents and friends by giving a very pretty Indian Club drill and by lunning some very interesting races, among these being a relay race. The girls were very enthusiastic over bas- ketball this year and a number of inter- class games were played. The girls greatly appreciate the kindness of the school Board in providing them wtili the splendid gymnasium and their very capable instructor, Miss Metcalf. (BirU basketball Can our girls play Basketball? Any one in doubt should have stepped into the Junior High gymnasium any of the practice game nights during the Basket- ball season, and have witnessed die lively activities of our girls. The Freshmen, Sophomores and the Juniors put out strong teams and com- peted in a double series of games. The Freshmen were defeated bv both the Juniors and Sophomores, but they put up such a good fight that the upper class teams will have to look out for them next year. The Sophomores finally came out victors, defeating the Juniors in a very close contest the evening of Feb. 25th. The final score—14 to 12. All of the girls enjoyed the season and are looking forward to next year with even added zeal and interest. TUBBY 5Ta£ 5 Hubb? 5Ttak $ Ooucfydown .football £cam 1015 ()n the first day of school Sept. 20th. first call was issued for football men and before the week was out all candi- dates were supplied with suits and foot- ball had started in earnest. At the close of the 1914 season Clin- ton Archibald was reelected captain, but upon bis failure to return to school another election was held and Arthur McChesney was elected by unanimous vote. Art is one of the fastest quarter- backs in the state and proved a very capable leader. The team lost a few men by gradua- tion and in other ways. Briggs, Rex- ford. Hart. Simpson, and Archibald, all last year’s letter men failed to return besides many of the second team men. Prospects were not very bright at first. By shifting men and getting some new material Coach Stevens produced a winning team. Paul Miller who played with Corval- lis last year filled the hole at end and Thacker who was shifted from tackle played the other end. This combination giving us the best pair of high school ends in the state. Beals, a last year's back field man was put on the line and with Bain, Pete Miller and Allen gave us a strong line both on offense and defense. Bilyeu and Clelen developed into the first class backfield men. These with the old veterans gave the school a winning team. The team was unusually lucky with injured men this year. In past years there has always been a long list of in- jured but this year only two men were out. They were: Miller with a sprained ankle and Gildow with a frac- tured elbow. Miller's injury was most disastrous to the team. Paul receiving his in the first six minutes of play in the Salem game. With Miller at end we could have easily defeated Salem. Gildow received his injury in the Franklin game and was out most of the season. The season itself was extremely suc- cessful while not actually winning the tate championship we came within striking distance. Salem defeated us by playing an ineligible player. The game was later forfeited which left us still undefeated. The Albany-Dalles game ended in a ten-to-ten tie that left the championship with a Portland school, because the Dalles had been defeated by them. To have gotten the champion- ship we had to defeat them by a larger score. Our football Hfero s Those who upheld the glorious tradi- tions of the Albany High School are: McChesney “Mac” Captain. Quarter- back. Mac is one of the fastest quar- ters in the state and a hard one to stoo. I le was perhaps the brainiest player on the team and was not out of the game a minute the entire season. His sensational spurts around end. his ex- cellent toe work and forward passing have won for him a well deserved rep- utation. “Mac” weighs 131 pounds. Schultz “Pinkie Capt.-elect. Right half. Pinkie is one of the best athletes in school and the fastest man on the team. Pinkie is a terror for running the end and always advances the ball. Schultz will undoubtedly make a good leader and show us a winning team. “Pinkie weighs 130 pounds. Clelen “Johnny” left half. This is Johnny's first year, but his fight and ability developed him into a hard hit- ting backfield man with a bright fu- ture. John weighs 130 pounds. Tracy “Eddie Fullback. Eddie's last year of the High School football was one to be proud of as he was the hardest man to stop and one of the strongest defensive fullbacks playing High School football. This is Tracy’s fourth year. He weighs 173 pounds. Davis “Tub” Center. Tub is the heaviest man on the team, a terror to the opposing teams for smashing plays before they get started. Tub was pick- ed on every All Oregon team chosen this year. 1 ub weighs 216 pounds. Allen Red Right Guard. Red played the game for all there was in it. This being his first year of football he will develop into an All Oregon line- man next year. Red weighs 156 pounds. Miller “Pete Right Tackle. Pete played wonderful ball for a new man. making holes for the backfield and smashing opposing team's plays before they got them started by going thru the line. Pete was mentioned for All Oregon honors. Pete weighs 174 pounds. Paul Miller “Darkhorse Right End Darkhorse came from Corvallis at the first of the season and was slated for a backfield berth, but after the Alumni game he was shifted from here to right end where his work in receiv- ing forward passes and breaking up in- terference soon won for him a well de- served reputation. He was picked for every All Oregon team chosen. Darkhorse weighs 178 pounds. Lyle Bain “Bainer Left Guard Altho Bain is very light he is there with the old fight and many an oppos- ing player has wondered how he man- ages to get thru their line. He sure can do the trick in spite of his size. Bain weighs 130 pounds. Frances Beals “Funny” Left Guard Beals is equally at home in either a guard or tackle position and is sure filled with the “Old Albany Fight. 1 Seals is invaluable because of his speed and the wav in which he gets down on punts and kickoffs. “Funny has an- other year in school. Beals weighs 154 pounds. Elton Gildow “Fit Left Tackle Gildow was unfortunate in being in- jured in the Franklin game, but even with this handicap he made good. ()p- posing teams found him a stone wall on defense and very dangerous on of- fence. Gildow weighs 160 pounds. Dick Thacker “Mud Left End Dick was shifted from tackle to an end position and surprised every� mu.- with the way he played the position, lie proved his ability as an end by his defensive playing which won him hon- orable mention on the all Oregon team. Dick weighs 165 oournls. Ralph Bilyeu Left Half Altho Bilyeu did not win a letter it was not because he didn't deserve one as he was one of the best ground gain- ers on the team, especially in a broken field. Bilyeu was credited as being a most promising backfield man. of (frames The season was opened ()ct. 8 when the proud and haughty Alumni were defeated by a 7-0 score. No forward passes bv cither side were used, both playing sfnight football and working hard for each gain. The scoring was done by Schultz, McChesney making the placement. A. H. S. administered a severe drub- bing to the light but scrappy Franklin High team of Portland on Oct. 23d. It was in this game that Tubby got his niche in the hall of fame by making his first touchdown by a 33-vard run from an intercepted forward pass. The final score was 61 to 0. On Oct. 30th Albany played their first out of town game at Eugene, where we handed out a 41-0 defeat to the scraopv Eugene team. The first touchdown came in the first two min- utes of plav. Eugene accepted their defeat like true sports and showed the best of spirit all during the team's stay. The following Saturday. Nov. 6. Corvallis came to Albany with blood in their eves and confident of victory, but when Schultz, McChesney and the rest of the team started scoring touchdowns every two or three minutes, all Corval- lis could do was to look on. The final score was 47-0. On Nov. 13 the Great Albany-Salem game was played. Albany taking about 200 rooters to Salem, and saw the boys put up one of the best fights ever wit- nessed between two High Schools. The game, while ending in Salem's favor, was a clean, hard fought exhibition of football. Paul Miller and Gildow were injured in the first half, thus spoiling Albany's chances to even up the score. After the first quarter neither side could score and the rest of the game Albany showed wonderful fight, but could not stave off defeat. The final score was Salem 7, Albany 0. The last game of the season was played with The Dalles, who were champions of the state last year. The Dalles played fast clean football but could not defeat us. Time and time again we were in the shadow of their goal but The Dalles would hold us for downs or we would be penalized for offside play. The game ended in a 10- 10 tie. basketball Oeam For the first time in four years Al- bany High was represented by a bas- ketball team. Altho the season was not a brilliant success it was very good con- sidering that it was the first year of basketball for most of the team, but with the experience gained this year we should have a team to he proud of next year. The biggest handicap against the team was the lack of candidates who were eligible to play and would give time to practice. Those who did make the team had difficulty in keeping up in their work and the coach was never sure until shortly before the game who would be eligible to play. ()ne .earn never practiced together long enough to get consistent team work. Altho defeated in most of their games the team had the winning spirit and with another year's experience should prove an important factor in high school basketball. The work of the fellows speaks for itself. The personnel of the team was: Miller. Schultz. Tate. Ril- yeu. M. Boetticher. Clelen and Gid- dings: Hector, Manager. Junior IHigl) basketball Oeam The Junior High School Basketball Team has had a most successful season although the team is light they made up for it in fast team work. The team en- joyed several out of town trips and also played a number of games on their own floor. The team has the honor, a ra- ther unusual one, of not having met a defeat this year. Among the teams de- feated were the Washington Junior High team of Salem and the fast Leb- anon High School team. Both teams were defeated by a large score. I bis team should furnish several members for the senior High team next year. Cecil I'roman. Captain. Chas. King, Forward. Ralph Bilyeu, Forward. Wilber Bruckman, Cuard. Frank Eastburn. Cuard. The baseball team was badly crip- pled this year by the loss of Briggs, last year's 3rd baseman. Duncan, short- stop, Archibald, right field. Rexford and Kay. pitchers: but even with this handicap, the season was not a failure. The greatest drawbacks were the lack of good material and good weather. Just about the time the team would get to going at top speed it would rain for a week and all their efforts would be wasted. The series with Salem were as good exhibitions of baseball as are seen mi High Schools or Colleges. Albany di- vided the series with Salem by losing- one and winning one. Salem came to Albany April 28th and won by a score of 4 to 2. In this game Albany played superior ball but lost by one or two poor decisions at the home plate, and by Salem getting every break. On May 19th Albany went to Salem where they were victorious bv a score of 5 to 1. In this game Salem drew first blood by scoring one man in the second inning. In the third inning Austin walked, cook third on a single by (iithens and then Miller of Albany got a home run scor- ing three (3) men for Albany. Neither team scored again until the 3th inning when Salem scored two men on hits by Procter, Radcliffe and Gill. In the seventh inning Albany scored two more men on (iithens' single, walk by Miller and a perfect hit by Meeker. Salem scored one more in the eighth. 1 he game was one of those that are filled to the brim with sensational hits and stops. The game was very interesting from start to finish. The batteries were Talman and Gill for Salem and Scott and Eastburn for Albany. XEracfc Orack The season of I'M6 was perhaps die most successful in the history of track athletics considering the meets won. The weather would not permit consist- ent training and at times the men were compelled to train in rain and on a muddy track, to get into condition for a meet. The fellows showed the right spirit and trained as faithfully as pos- sible. and as a result, the meets speak for themselves. X5rack The first track meet was held Sat- urday, April 29th, at Eugene. With a score of 70 to 43 in our favor, the track team defeated the Eugene team. Ileal was the star of the meet, annex- ing 21 points. He was entered in nine events and played in eight. The team was composed of Schultz. Leininger, Ileal, Allen, Grove, Butler and Ellis. Following was the record: Mile run—Cropp (E) Peltier (E) Z3cam The school board secured this year the services of Mr. H. C. McDonald of the Y. M. C. A. as coach. 11 is persist- ent effort and popularity with the boys contributed much toward the success of the team. Besides furnishing a coach, the School Hoard showed their interest in track by furnishing a new track and other equipment, which was very much appreciated by the members of the team.

The second track and field meet was held at Salem Saturday, May 6. Sa- lem was given the decision 02 to 59 bv the Salem referee who was also starter. Before the relay the score stood 59 to 57 in Albany’s favor. There were com- plaints on the part of both coaches that there were fouls committed by a run- ner of the other side. Albany com- plained that the Salem man who was being distanced cut in between Beal, who was ahead, and the pole on a turn. Salem held that the outside man must stay outside even when he has passed the man who had the pole at the start. ()n account of these conflicting claims, the referee decided to throw out the re- lay race which was won by Albany by several yards. This gave the track meet to Albany 59 to 57. After the team bad returned to Albany, the referee seems to have changed his mind and given the relay to Salem. As far as we are able to learn. Albany is entitled to the meet with or without the relay. Another fact which gives the meet to Albany without question is the use of more than ten men on the Salem team. It was agreed by the managers that to reduce the expense, there should be but ten men on each team and Albany agreed to pay the expense of their coach as well, but the Salem coach said on the afternoon of the meet or later that he had not agreed to this and re- fused to limit the team to ten men. Beal was again the star of the meet, gathering in 28 points including five firsts. The meet was held between showers and sleet on a muddy track and the time made was very slow, except in the 50 yard dash which was run by Beal in 5 3-10 seconds, one tenth of a second better than the Pacific Coast High School record, 5 2-5 seconds.

Opportunity Opportunity knocks once at each man's door, but if you yourself happen to be knocking when she calls you. you will never hear her. To the High School student opportunity is constant- ly knocking. To the Freshman, opportunity gives you the chance to make four credits. You also have the opportunity to make a place on the debating team or get a position on the football team, basket- ball. baseball, or track team. Watch for your opportunities and take advan- tage of them. To the Sophomore the same oppor- tunities are offered as to the Freshman, only you have one year less, three hun- dred and sixty-five less chances of suc- cess than you had last year. Don’t de- lay too long. .VOW is the time to do it. Don't say “I’ll do it tomorrow” for Yesterday Today was Tomorrow. To the Junior, opportunity gives you the right to assume a small part of the cares and responsibilities of looking af- ter the various school activities. You should feel it your duty to act as a sub- stitute in any position which a Senior has been filling. This year you should useful. Help others.

If you have let your opportun- ities slip by while you were a Freshman or a Sophomore, Wake Up. ..Don't sleep any longer. Drab something and stick to it. Make it a success. Don’t discourage your opportunities by not paying any attention to them. Strive to do something that needs to be done and do it well. The Senior has many opportunities presented to him. if he has used well his previous four years. The oppor- tunities will come but whether you will be able to grasp them or not. depends upon the amount of training and study you have done. To hold an office or position of trust in I iigh School and do it well, you must be qualified and pre- pared to make many sacrifices. The Senior is called upon to make more sac- rifices for the school than any one else. Also do not get it into your head that there is more fun than work in your position. The honor connected with it is very small compared with the work. “Nothing that is great is easy. If you are willing to devote all the time necessary to your position, then accept it. After you have accepted it, do your best. Try to make a record for effi- ciency. Try to make an improvement on former years.

Appreciation With this issue of the Whirlwind the work of the 1916 .staff is at an end. It has been the aim of the editor to give the students a larger and better paper than they have had before. How suc- cessful we have been we do not know but whatever measure of success has been attained is due to the aid and co- operation of a most efficient staff. Some members of the staff have done much more than their duty and I wish to thank once again Winston Hender- son for the efficient manner in which he has managed ’the finances. Although the monthly paper was twice as large as last year and the cost of this year's annual more than twice as much as any other year, he has made the Whirl- wind come out even. This is the first year that the School Board has not had to pay part of the expense. Much credit also must be given Rob- ert Boetticher, our designer, for his work has been exceptionally heavy. Jean Saulsbery has written several stories for the Whirlwind on very short notice. Chas Delaney and Eu- gene Dumond have ever been ready and willing to enlarge upon the suggestions given them. Corintha Hart has also done much to make the Whirlwind a success. In addition to taking care of the general news columns of the mon- thly paper she has also had charge of Cracker Department. She has also done some of the associate editor's work, who was unable to help the last three weeks. To all who have aided and helped in making the Whirlwind what it is. including many who were not on the staff, I wish to thank once again and assure you your help has been much appreciated. Mr. Max R. Boehmer, the fore- man of the 1 lerald printing force, has also given; us much valuable assistance. 1 le has printed this annual in less time than usual. In fact the Annual would not have been out be- fore the close of school except for the work of Mr. Boehmer. I wish to say that I am thoroughly satisfied with the work he has done for us and ap- preciate his many helpful suggestions. The Editor. Our £xcl)ati 5£S During the year we received a num- ber of new exchanges, also many old ones, all of which we welcomed and ap- preciated. The exchanges have been more wide- ly read and enjoyed by the students than ever before. There has been many good and helpful things in these papers, and we hope to find every one of them in the library next year. We have just received the spring is- sue of the Roman, from Rome, (ieorgia. This is a splendid school paper, and we heartily agree with your exchange ed- itor in all that he says in regard to crit- icisms—that they be taken in a kindly manner as they are given in such—as they are made that we may all profit by them. The Xewtonia. from Newton, Iowa, is a well arranged and very enjoyable paper. We like the pamphlet style of publication, and hope that at some later day we will be able to publish our pa- per in pamphlet form. The Garnet and Gray. Albany. X. V. We welcome this school paper as a new exchange. Is enough attention paid to the exchange department of your paper? The Xebo. Roseburg, Oregon. Though small your paper makes up for size in quality and regularity of pub- lication. The Kyote. Hillings. Montana, which is published by the Seniors, is also among our exchanges. This paper is good, especially your poetry. The S. H. R. S. Weekly, of Santa Rosa, California. We find very little concerning exchanges in your paper: otherwise it is excellent. The Granite. Halfway. Baker. Ore- gon. You are making splendid prog- ress with your paper. The class notes are well arranged. The Gazette. Frankfort, Ky. We es- pecially like the grade of paper you use for your publication; it does not come to pieces the first time it is read. The Keramos. of East Liverpool. Ohio, has been upon our exchange table for a number of years. One thing we very much admire in your paper is that attention is given to something more interesting than stale jokes, for so many High School Papers do not spend enough time and thought upon the lit- erary department, or even upon school news. The Scroll, of Milwaukee. Wis., is one of our new exchanges. The liter- ary department of this paper is splen- did. There is, however, enough jokes to please every one. The Advocate of Lincoln, Nebraska, has arrived regularly. Especially did we enjoy the December issue. It must be very interesting to print your own paper. The Stampede of Howe, Montana, is another of our new exchanges. This is an excellent appearing paper and is famed for the quality of its jokes. The Toltec. We have very much en- joyed this school publication and we have no adverse criticism to make. Es- pecially good is the May issue. 1 his paper comes from Colorado. The High School Q” of Quincy. 111. We are glad to have your paper among our exchanges. Some of your locals are very clever. The literary de- partment is also good. The Tattler. Kincaid, Kansas. This live little paper has arrived regularly and shows not only thought but also what an amateur printer can do. The Rail Splitter. Lincoln. Illinois. The cover design of your paper cer- tainly illustrates your name. Some of the stories in your literary department are excellent. The arrangement of school matter is also good. Red and White. Iowa City. Iowa. An interesting little paper full of school news and interest. The Weekly Trindent. another new exchange, comes from Santa Cruz. California. We heartily welcome this addition to our exchange table. The Steelhead. of The Dalles. Ore- gon. This is a splendid paper. Your subscription price is the highest of any paper received by us. The Peace Pipe, another new ex- change from Fairview, Okla. Your paper shows splendid school spirit, and we are glad to add the Peace Pipe to our list. Is this the first year you have published a school paper? The Carthaginian. Carthage, South Dakota. We are glad to have you with us this year. Although small your pa- per is good. Would it not be better to have a little larger literary depart- ment? So often the literary depart- ments in school papers are slighted for jokes, athletics or locals. The Post, Franklin High, Portland. ()regon. The literary department is excellent. We have especially enjoyed the clever “Mother Goose Rhymes, in the April number.

There are still many joys That we will not slight. For Society is one Of the very few things That make life worth living While time goes on its wings. h= Among the first and largest events of this school year was the reception given ()ctober 22nd by the students of Al- bany High complimenting the new fac- ulty and students. The assembly room of the H. S. was the scene of this oc- casion. With a profusion of autumn leaves and small fir trees this room was transformed into a small forest, where rustic benches and Indian blankets were very much in evidence. Games and contests had been cleverly arranged for the evening. A large crowd enjoyed the reception, and later in the evening were served refreshments. $ On December sixteenth, Mr. Boet- ticher. Mr. Young and Mr. Stevens were hosts at a dinner party given to the members of the football team. The dinner was supervised by Miss Thor- darson and served by the girls of the Domestic Science Department. For the occasion, the dining room was very ap- propriately decorated with Christmas greens, and a small Christmas tree cen- tered the prettily decorated table. Af- ter an elaborate dinner the official let- ters were presented to the boys who had earned them during the football season. Miss Inez Lemke was hostess during the Thanksgiving vacation at a large party given at her home on East Sec- ond street. It was given for the pleas- ure of a number of out-of-town guests who were spending the Thanksgiving vacation in Albany. The honored guests included: Ida Spaulding and Carolyn Dick of Salem who were visiting Inez Lemke: Irene Curtis (Salem) guest of I lazel Hockensmith : Marjorie Kay and Bernice Craig (Salem) who were en- tertained by Janet Dawson; Ruth Fish- er and Genevieve Yonkers (Salem), guests of Carolyn Wright, and Carolyn Cannon of Portland who was visiting in Albany. A dainty collation complet- ed the pleasures of the evening. The first social meeting of the Sen- ior Club was held at the home of Har- riet Van Tassel, on Friday evening. November 19th. Many members of the Senior Class were present to enjoy the evening. Later delicious refreshments were served. The Sophomore Class gave a delight- ful “fancy dress” party at the home of Janet Dawson on January 21st. A large number of Sophomores were pres- ent and came in “fancy dress costumes and masks. Games and music were en- joyed until a late hour and dainty re- freshments were served. The first prize for best representation was award- ed to Opal Howard. The rooms were prettily decorated by Roy Reams, Ray- mond Xebergall. Ruth Rawlings and Linnie Conner. Refreshments were served by the committee of Hazel Gil- bert. John Clelen. Opal Howard. F'ay King and Miss Thordarson. The en- tertainment was furnished by .Marciel Austin, Pete ATiller, Janet Dawson and Miss Patterson. The Junior Class gave a party at the home of Ruth Livelihood. A delightful evening was passed with games and music and later delicious refreshments were served to the many Juniors pres- ent. Xot until a late hour did the jolly crowd disperse after having had an en- joyable evening. Robert Boetticher entertained the members of the Whirlwind Staff with a hard times party. The guests arrived dressed in numerous styles of hard time costumes. Decorations were sugges- tive of Orange Day and even the de- l'cious refreshments served by Mrs. Hoetticher carried out this scheme. Those who were present to enjoy the evening spent in games and music were: Francyl Howard (editor in chief). Margaret Gibson, Mary Parker. Kath- erine I.ivengood. Beatrice Sanders, Dale Propst. Clarence Wicks, Winston I lenderson, Fred Aldrich and Robert Hoetticher. During the Christmas vacation the Heta Gammas had a continuous round of pleasure, with an event for almost every day in the week. ❖ ❖ ❖ The A. M. A. Girls also had their share of social functions during the Christmas week of vacation. Among the other clubs taking advan- tage of Christmas vacation to spend it in pleasure was the A. B. G. Club who celebrated with several parties. I’he leading social event of the year was the annual banquet given by the Junior Class ‘17 to the graduating class on Wednesday evening. May 11. at the I lotel Albany. The guests gathered at eight o’clock and after a short time spent in singing and music, were ush- ered into the dining room. Hand paint- ed place cards marked the places at the well appointed tables. Decorations were of the color scheme—green and white, the colors of the Junior Class. The ta- ble for the Senior Class officers was adorned with pink La France roses, the Senior Class flower. Music was en- joyed during the entire eight-course banquet and before leaving the tables the following toasts were given : “Brev- ity is the soul of wit, by Toastmaster Walter (iilbert (president of the Jun- ior Class) ; “This is the happy morn, that day, long wished day —Lvle Bain ; “And this is why I sojourn here Ruth Livengood: “Time's Fatal Wings do ever homeward fly —Mable Claus- en ; “When thou art old, there’s grief enough for thee —Louis Schultz: “Busy. busy, still art thou. Beatrice Sanders; I summon up remembrance by things past —Margaret Gibson: “Look forward with hope for tomor- row —Superintendent Boetticher; “A little work, a little play, and so—good day —Francvl Howard (president of the Senior Class). Besides the members of the Junior and Senior Classes many members of the faculty were present. Much credit for the success of the banquet is due Francis Heals, who acted as Chairman of the Arrangement committee, and Hazel Hockensmith.

L About forty members of the Senior class went to Corvallis Friday morn- ing, April 14. The class were all day guests of the ()regon Agricultural Col- lege. The students enjoyed the ride over in a special motor chartered from the S. I . Co. Mrs. Boetticher, Mrs. Young and Mr. Woods were the chap- erones chosen for the occasion. At Corvallis they were met by a num- ber of former A. H. S. students who acted as their guides. The students were divided into groups and in the morning visited die Administration building the Pharmacy department, the two gymnasiums, the Agricultural I lall, the Dairy building and the greenhouses. A special regimental drill was given in honor of the class. Lunch was enjoyed by the students at Waldo Hall. President Kerr gave a short talk and a short musical program was given. The party then visited the I tome eco- nomics building, the Mines building and the Shops. The jolly crowd then broke up into still smaller groups and some went to see the chickens and others saw the baseball game between Dallas High and the O. A. C. F'rosh. The class left on the evening train after having spent a very pleasant and profitable day. The Seniors extend their heartiest thanks I othe (X A. C .people for the splendid time they had.

Is it going to be a good one? It isn’t going to be like last year's, is it? Is it going to be better? Why are you beginning so early? 1 low is the advertising manager com- ing along? Do you like your job? Is it fun ? When will my picture be ready? I bad one taken five years ago, can t you use that? Say. do you get a salary for being- editor? Some one told me you got fifteen cents a week. These were the most common ques- tions asked the editor and they are the reasons why he always carries a gun. D------------. Ore..

I'ch. 29th Wed.—It rained like sin all day. Mr. Stevens gave us a quiz m chemistry. We had glee club this evening. I saw a new girl in the of- fice talking to Mr. Young. I wonder if she is going to start to school? She looks like a peach. Feb. 30th Thurs. The new girl I saw last night started to school this morning and has a seat just in front of me in assembly. I believe it must have been by the intervention of my guardian angel. She is as pretty as ? picture, a little doll-like sort of persoi with kinda wavy yellow hair, a soft little pug nose, pearly white teeth that are always displayed in the most be- witching smile, and eyes! they are the crowning beauty of her lovely counten- ance. Two large brown liquid orbs of the purest light. I just took one look into those eyes and was gone head over heels in love. I have thought of noth- ing else all day. Her name is Marjor- ie.

It happened this way. we both have an assembly period the third in the morning, h armer Gibson came in about ten minutes late as usual, and Marjorie turned her soft brown eyes on me with the most bewitching smile and asked who she was. 1 was so overcome by her beauty (that is Marjorie) that turned pink- ami stuttered and answered her.

I never even noticed I hadn’t hung up my hat until one of the boys knocked it out of mv hand. I couldn’t think of anything to say so asked her if she found it hard to get used to our ways. Yes, she said, “but it’s harder to get acquainted with you people than with your ways. Why do you know, r---------- “Call me Paul,” said I.

It couldn’t have been more than two seconds be- fore she answered me but they were an eternity of torment for me. I felt my face turn all the colors of the rain- bow and finally stop on a terrible pink.

C all me up this evening and I’ll tell you f I can go; our number is 459J.” I have always thought about making a date as being a great awe-inspiring thing to be attempted only by the most brave, but since my first experience is past I find it is quite simple. I called her up and she said she could go. I then went out on the porch and watched the winter sunset with a great flood of joy and happiness and love overflowing my soul. Obe of tV TMarl s I raveling by one s self is tiresome no matter how beautiful the country may be, so when I came to the small village of Barsell, 1 gladly drew the reins of my horse tight and dismounted. Obtaining a meal at the only Inn, I set out to view the village. Many men were hurrying home from their day's work, children were playing in the yards, and many people were out doors on their porches or on the street. I icing a stranger, all the people paid particular attention to me. Two boys, who had been fighting in the street, timidly tried to sneak awav when they found my gaze was upon them, but I called them back. While talking and making friends with them, the father of the eldest came by and we fell in step together. Learning that I was just from the Last he ventured to tell me some of the adventures of the West, which 1 shall now relate. When my family and 1 moved here. I had purchased .110 acres of land just south of town along the river you crossed when you rode over here from (ireenville. I had made the purchase before they arrived, and I will tell you about that first. Not knowing much about the value of land in the country here, I only knew I was getting the place very cheap. There were two buildings on the farm, both at the extreme north side. Neither house had been inhabited for some time, as 1 could readily see) Mr. Harley, the man from whom I bought the land, took me over the place, which contained a good deal of timber, but we didn’t go close to the river in any part of the land. He seemed to be in a hurry and so we soon went back to town and I paid over the price of the land and the deed was transferred to me.

By this time I was some- what suspicious, but 1 kept still and de- cided. as T was only giving a paltry sum, that I would see the matter thru. My family arrived, and about noon one nice May day 1 took them to the farm. Several people were standing around there curiously watching us and so I asked what they were so interested in. They only shook their heads and looked as if they were sorrv for me. My wife came to me just then and said, “Say, John, what is the matter with that boy over there. He is most impudent, telling my son and me we would soon wish we were back in the East.” At this T knew there was something wrong, but I only said. “Some boys think it is smart to make impertinent remarks.” ell, we settled down for the night, but the next morning 1 decided to call on the man from whom 1 had bought the land. When 1 got to town he was- n t to be found, but one man said. “Why 1 saw him get on the first train the next day after he sold his farm, and he hasn’t come back.” “I guess he won't come back for some time,” one of the bystanders said. At this everybody except me laughed, and I grew desperate. 1 concluded to see the Justice of Peace as there were no lawyers there at the time, and I didn’t know anybody else I could ask concerning the land. Now tell me all about the old Har- ley place and why people think me such a fool for buying the same.” I demand- ed when at last I was seated before the Justice. Well. I'll be brief, and tell the facts as I know them. Mr. Harley Sr. was an old man when he came here about twenty years ago. He had two sons, as fine young fellows as you could wish to see. One afternoon, just after they had been here ten days, they started for the river, which runs along the south side of the place, for a swim. They never returned. There was a search made but no clue was ever found con- cerning either of them. The river was explored and watched for several weeks and the only sign found was a part of an old handkerchief found floating on the water. “The old man grew frantic and for several years he would not go back to the place. Finally he went back and spent his time at the river side idly staring into the water. Of course ev- erybody left him pretty much alone as he seemed to desire to be that way. Well, in ten days, exactly the same time the boys had been on the place before they disappeared, the old man disap- peared. Mr. Harley Jr., the recent owner of the place came by it by inher- itance, but could not be persuaded to stay there under any circumstances. I le took the first opportunity to sell it. which happened to be you. And was the father of the two sons found ? T asked. Xo. that is the mystery. Everybody is satisfied the boys were drowned, but we can't account for the old man!” Well. T remained on the place for five years and no ill luck befell me and the mysteries of the years before were almost forgotten when one day my son came in yelling. “Father, Father, I know what became of Mr. Harley.” What, son, what? I asked. Down by the river, under that thick gray moss. I discovered an old well, and such a c|tieer place it is. 1 almost fell in myself. Come and I will show you, he answered. Mv son and 1 went to the old well and, putting down a long rope, we de- scended with an old lantern. Sure enough, there were bones on the ground in the bottom. Now the place was freed from mystery and we sold it at a very handsome profit. By this time it was quite dark so my friend and I returned toward home. Next day I went on my way but I will never forget the story of the old Harley place. Keep the happy memory of school days for all time.

Reliable Service. 306 West Second St. 35££Ott6 tt)e border Company C. of American Cavalry had been ordered over the border into Mexico to (|iiell a rebellion and. if pos- sible. arrest the leaders. This peculiar band of outlaws had caused such great destruction of life and property during the last few weeks that the border troop had been compelled to intervene in behalf of the oppressed villagers. Tn Company-C. was a plucky, daring young chap, Jack Douglas, who en- tered into the search for the outlaws with all the zeal and enthusiasm of his splendid young manhood. During an exciting search he in some way became separated from the other members of the company and before he knew it he was lost. He was hard on the trail of a fleeing bandit when he discovered that he was alone in the pursuit. The Mexican also observed this fact at almost the same time that Jack did. Jack knew that he would have to deal with the Mexican single- handed now and he felt confident that he could overpower him and take him back to camp his prisoner if only he could overtake him before any of the others of the outlaw band should come to the Mexican’s assistance, and. more- over, even if there were a danger that should not be able to capture his pris- oner alone he could not turn back for that would be a sign of cowardice and fear and, too, the Mexican realizing this would see his advantage and be- come the pursuer instead of the pur- sued. So Jack urged his horse on and kept up the race. The Mexican turned his horse quick- ly to one side and disappeared into the brush. Jack rode up to the place in the road where the Mexican had disap- peared and looked about him. hut the bandit seemed to have dropped com- pletely out of sight. Jack was bewild- ered and just a little out of patience and he rode restlessly up and down the narrow winding road hoping in vain to find some trace of the Mexican. 1 le was trying desperately to think of some plan by which lie could again get on the trail of the fugitive. He was sud- denly roused from his thoughts by the sound of horses' hoofs on the road a little distance behind him, and glancing around he saw a band of Mexicans headed by the one whom he had just been pursuing, bearing rapidly down upon him. He saw at a glance what had happened. hen the bandit, whom he had been following, left the main road he had found some of his companions and now with their help he meant to return to the chase, with himself as pursuer and Jack as the pursued. Realizing that he must lose no time if 116 hoped to save his life. Jack spoke sharply to his horse and touched its sides lightly with his spurs. The horse responded almost as though he, too, knew that a race for life was on. There were about a half dozen Mexicans in the band and Jack felt that they were gaining on him. On and on over the hard, narrow road winding like a snake’s track around the edge of the foothills. Jack’s horse was growing tired and the band- its were gaining when the leader's horse suddenly stumbled on a small rock lying in the road, and fell, throwing his rider over his head. This frightened the oth- er horses and threw the little band into confusion generally. Now was Jack’s chance to make his escape while the Mexicans were quieting their frenzied horses and attempting to find out Albem?

As Jack rode on, he noticed that a river lay a little way below the road and an idea suddenly came to his mind. Should he try it? He must decide quickly. He remembered the old saying, “nothing ventured, nothing won,” and so accordingly he reined in his horse, dismounted quickly, and lead the horse down to the bank. He took off his hat and dropped it carelessly on the ground near the edge of the water, and giving his horse a hasty farewell he turned him loose and ran hurriedly up the bank and disappeared into the foothills much as had the Mexican done a short time before. It was impossible for Jack to make very rapid progress over the rocky hills but he knew that if he did not succeed in deceiving the Mexicans by his river ruse that they would very probably search for him in the hills. As he made his way with difficulty around a large rock, he suddenly came face to face with a young girl. Both were taken by surprise, but Jack was 1 his tongue. I beg your pardon. I hope I did not frighten you.” “No, senor, but why are you here and without a hat? You look tired, senor, answered the girl. She spoke with the Spanish accent and was dressed as the Mexican wo- men are, but her skin was white ex- cept for a little tan and her hair was fair. Jack wondered, could she be a Mexican and yet if not. why was she here in the Mexican foothills? Then he remembered that he had not an- swered her. “I am an American soldier and I am being pursued by a band of Mexicans who have been plundering towns near the border. But how do you happen to be here, you don't live here surely?” I, too, am a refugee, senor. My home was robbed and burned and my father and mother killed by a band of Villa's men and my brother and 1 es- caped and came into the mountains. We have been here for nearly a month. Come with me, senor, I can hide you from your pursuers. My brother and I have a secret cave.” As they made their way to the cave Lolita told him of herself and her fam- ily. She was of American parentage and as a child had lived with her par- ents in Texas near the bonier. While out playing one day she had been kid- napped by a band of Mexicans, who happened to be passing. They had tak- en her to their village where she had been given to a family who had been good to her after their own fashion, and she had practically forgotten her real parents and her old home, and had learned to call them father and mother. The boy who was with her, a youth of fifteen years, was the only child of her foster parents. He had been just a baby when she came into the family and they had grown up as brother and sister. Jack spent a week in the secret cave with Lolita and her brother and then the three left the mountains by a round about way and succeeded in getting over the border into the United States without molestation and before many day has passed Lolita had changed her Mexican costume for American clothes and her name to Mrs. Douglas.

It’s no use,” remarked Phillip Ran- dall gloomily, his shoulders drooping and his feet lagging as he entered the room where most of the Oak Dale stu- dents were gathered together in discon- solate little groups and couples.

I, for one, do not pro- pose to let Oak Dale stand calmly by and see those guys—that is, I mean —I, er—I— and in a burst of ap- plause and laughter he was pulled down to his seat by his friends—the elaborate speech lie had so confidently begun dy- ing unspoken. But Lois Sheldon, the demure and quiet, rose quickly. “I agree with Mr. Randall, and propose that we appoint a committee of two, to search for Billy. “Here, here, cried all. and with much more cheerful countenances than they had heretofore shown, the meeting adjourned. Chap. II. Let us now turn our attention for a few minutes to Cromwell High, in the neighboring town of Cromwell. There seems to be some unusual state of affairs going on berc, for the stu- dents are running up and down the halls in great excitement and a sub- dued air of expectancy fills the air. At last the magic Pr-r-r, Prrr, Prrr of three bells is heard in the distance and the students come pouring into the assembly eagerly, laughing and talking and jostling one another backward and forward. A man with an air fo authority steps up to the desk, taps a bell, and the noise instantly stops, and all fix their eyes expectantly upon his face. A silence of a few minutes ensues—then— I fully realize the importance of the announcement I am going to make,” began Mr. Brown, and although I find it difficult to tell you about it. it is nec- essary that you know that our beloved mascot. Buck, disappeared last night and so far we have been unable to find any trace of him. During this speech suppressed indignation had reigned throughout the room, and now could no longer be suppressed—but “Oak Dale! came a simultaneous hiss from every throat and, Revenge, came the echo. 1 know, resumed Mr. Brown, when the tumult has slightly subsided, “I know that you can hardly be blamed for the attitude you take in this matter, for although there is no positive proof as to who committed this crime, never- theless, we all feel that the Oak Dale school would be more interested than any one else in this affair, still I must ask you to calm yourselves and try to help form some plan for recovering Buck. e can't let Oak Dale have our goat! t this moment a boy at the back of the room rose hurriedly and asked to be allowed to speak.

I whistled, but they were so busy talking they didn’t pay any attention, and, as 1 approached nearer, I could hear they were talking about us, for 1 caught the name, ‘Cromwell’—‘Mascot’—and ‘the woods south of town.’ By this time 1 knew something must be up and I hur- ried to get nearer, but, before I could reach them, a car drove up, hailed them, they climbed in and drove away. Now my plan is this—of course this evdience is proof enough that they are the guilty ones and if we wanted to play the baby and be a set of pikers we could com- plain of it to the school authorities and get our goat back. But it would be lots better, it seems to me, if we just didn’t say anything about it—but organized a searching party, took our lunch and searched the woods south of town high aid low till we found Buck. It isn’t likely there'd be more than one or two kids on guard and any way, 'in numbers there is safety,' and he sat down amid enthusiastic applause. CHAPTER 3. The next day after the meeting at Oak Plain Phillip Randall and Don Graham boarded the early train to Cromwell for the purpose of “learning what they could learn. However, ow- ing to the fact that they were very well- known there and were not experts in the art of disguising, they were forced to lay low most of the day and wait, impatiently, until the night should come and under cover of darkness they would be able to venture out. At last evening did arrive and with caps pulled low over their faces and collars turned up—arm- in arm. they stole out into the street. “Where to? whispered Don. “In front of Smith’s,” answered Phil, and they started out. ()nce there, they waited for what seemed hours and hours and really was about half of one. At last, “Aw, come on, there’s no use waitin' any longer— nothin’s going to happen,” murmured Don—but “Hist, from Phil, Marion Ellsworth and Tom Hood! A pretty girl and her escort were approaching. What are the prospects for winning Saturday?” the girl was asking. “You know what I told you about Simondson's woods,” answered the bow “Oh hush, Tom. some one’ll hear you. and they entered the building. This was enough for the boys. Si- mondson’s woods!” gasped one, and Billy, the other and, waiting no longer, they started rapidly down the street, cautiously discussing the conver- sation they had overheard. It was this conversation that the Cromwell boy had overheard, and it was at this time he had seen them climb into the car of Phil's uncle, who was just then passing by. CHAPTER 4. Anne Douglas ran across the wide green lawn that separated the Douglas home from that of the Sheldon’s, in great excitement, her white middy suit and wind-blown hair making a pleas- ing setting for her glowing young face. Oh, Lois, she gasped. “Phil just called up and told me the Crowwell boys had Billy a prisoner in the woods south of there! “How does he know? ()h, he heard Marion Ellsworth and Tom Hood talking about it last night, and we’re going to hire jitneys—take our lunch, and search that wood far and wide till we find him! “Oh, good! When? “Day after tomorrow.” “Come on. I must tell the other girls”— and away they ran. As they approached the home of the Randalls they saw two figures in the distance, whom they re- cognized as Evelyn Lee and Jack Steele, two of the youngest teachers at Oak Dale High. “Oh. Lois, begged Anne, “do let’s ask them to be chap- erones ! You know every one says they’re in love any way and that would be so romantic!’’ Lois quickly assented, ind overtaking them, they told the news and easily obtained their consent. Where are they now ?

'1 lie sun rose upon a busy scene the next morning both at Oak Dale and Cromwell. I he pupils of the former school started out bright and early in jitneys and the morning air was filled with their merry voices as they sped along the smooth road singing and shouting. At Cromwell, too, all were kept busy, for a place for general camp must be selected, hammocks slung, and hampers unpacked. This accomplished, the first searching party was sent out, tor they had resolved beforehand that this work was to be carried out sys- tematically and certain crews sent out during the day, who were to leave cer- tain signs along their trail, so as to prevent the searching of a place more than once. Meanwhile, the Oak Dale students having arrived, Phil Randall, Anne Douglas. Don Graham and Lois Shel- don immediately set out. as the first searching party, on an earnest hunt for liilly. As they walked along, their eyes opened for any camp, hut or other means of shelter, where Billy might be kept a prisoner, they heard voices ap- proaching. You’re on the wrong trail,” shouted Phil, but, to his surprise, he saw the party were not of the Oak Dale stu- dents, but strangers. ‘‘Billy must be near.” whispered Anne. “Because I think, if I’m not mis- taken. those are Cromwell students and they must be his bodyguard! “Well, T must sav they're nervy,” gasped Phil, but said no more. “If we sang some of the high school songs Rilly might hear and at least know we’re coming,” suggested Lois. The others agreed, and thus it was that the nearest search- ing party of the Cromwell school heard, faintly, echoed on the breeze, “For we must have Cromwell’s goat!” “The Oak Dale song. gulped one. “It must be Buck's bodyguard,” answered the other. “We’ll go in that direction.” Miss Evelyn Lee and Jack Steele had wandered off together— to see if they couldn t find a stream or spring of some sort, to get water to make lemon- ade, as they somewhat vaguely ex- plained. But they seemed to have forgotten the purpose for which they had set out. Perhaps it was due 1o the warm weath- er, or that school would be out so soon, or that this would be their last outing before vacation. How ever it was, Miss Lee soon found herself sitting under a tree, with Mr. Steele standing over her. looking pale, but determined. Evelyn,” he began. Poor Billy, interrupted a sad voice, so near that Miss Lee screamed faintly and Mr. Steele turned quickly. There on a branch overhead sat Billy, evidently none the worse for his ab- sence. Miss Lee embraced him pas- sionately and Mr. Steele, taking his referee’s whistle from his pocket, blew three strident blasts. Then, before the students could arrive, he made the most of his opportunity and took up the con- versation where it had been left off, “Evelvn----- . CHAPTER 6. “Billy has been found. shouted an Oak Grove student, and he ran to an- nounce the news to the camp—and— “Buck has been found,” same a similar call at the Cromwell camp. “This way,” shouted both voices at almost the same instant, and the two camps, coming from opposite directions, soon reached the spot. Great was the joy of the Oak Dale students and great the consternation of the Cromwell. “We demand an ex- planation. shouted Mr. Brown. “Real- ly this is carrying it a bit too far, an- swered Mr. Steele. “We’re willing to let bygones be bygones, but Billy be- longs to us and now that we have him back, we really don’t think an explana- tion is due on your part!” We haven’t had your parrot! We want our goat! angrily answered Mr. Brown.

Steele explained that they had seen nothing of the goat and told him of the conversation overheard by Phil and Don. Marion Ellsworth, rather trou- bled, explained that this had referred to a long deferred promise to go on an expedition to the woods for botany specimens. ‘‘That explains the conver- sation John overheard between Donald and Phiplip, exclaimed Mr. Brown, ‘‘but where is Buck, and how came your parrot here? Just then a car was heard approaching and two wild-eyed boys from the Agricultural College burst into the crowd. The saints be praised, fervently ex- claimed the stoutest, weakly pointing to Billy and sinking under tl e friendly shade of a nearby tree, mopping his glistening brow. Yes, yes, we didn’t dream we’d lo e him. We only thought it would be a good joke to steal the goat and parrot so that each would think the other school had their mascot, but the parrot flew through the open window —he paused, out of breath, looking shame- facedly defiant. There was a long, long silence. At last, Let’s come on to dinner,” sug- gested Phil. “We need it.” Jean Salisbury, '18. Cast! Ufere Ut Us Senior Voting (Lontest For prettiest girl in the Senior Class, Ilildegard Spillman was the popular choice and received a total of 18 votes. Katherine Livengood was second with five (5), and Dale Wills and Eleanor Bruce tied for third place with 4 each. Five other girls have at least one boy’s admiration and heart. They are Bee Hanke, 2; Olive Millhollen, Mable Clausen, Harriet Van Tassel and Mar- garet Gibson, who each received one vote. The official count for most popular girl gave Eleanor Bruce first place with 16 votes. Hildegarde Spillman was next with 6 and Floy P'iler third with 4. Hazel Ross received 3 and .Margaret Gibson, Amy Perfect and Harriet Van Tassel each one. (We know what boy voted for Harriet even if the writing was disguised.) Also by the handwriting we know that F. Aldrich and II. Curry cast one vote. The vote for Best Looking Boy was very close. The girls’ opinions were very different and varied. The result was in doubt until the last four ballots were counted. Earl Scott received the honor by getting 11 votes. Gilmore Hector won second place with 7 votes and Francyl Howarcl received third place with 5 votes. Richard Thacker and Fred Aldrich tied for fourth place with 4 each. Three girls did not think this way and Win- ston Henderson, Derril Austin and Rob- ert Boetticher each received one vote. ( How much will you give us to let you see the writing on these ballots?) For Most Popular Boy, Elton Gil- dow won first place with fifteen. Fran- cyl Howard was second with six. Earl Scott came close behind with five and Lyle Bain was fourth with three. Al- drich and Boetticher each got two votes and Richard Thacker one. Floy P'iler has the distinction of be- HAUSER BROS.

She received 18 votes. I lazel Ross was second with dx. Harriet Van Tassel was third with four and Gladys McCourt, 11 allio Myers and Eleanor Bruce each got two. Five other boys picked as many- different girls. Dale Wills, Amy Per- fect. Gladys Sharp, (this may be satire) Margaret Gibson and Blanche Ragon each got one. For the position of Jolliest Boy, Lyndon Myers was elected to fill first place with 13 votes to his credit. Scott and Gildow tied for second place. Der- ril Austin was third with four. Rich- ard Thacker got three. Boetticher two and Howard, Burnett and Bain each one. We all thought Aldrich would have a walk away for the position of Worst Fusser, but we had another think com- ing. Fred just did win this coveted position by the narrow margin of three votes. Fred received altogether ten votes. Forest Campbell and Harvey Curry tied for second place with seven votes. (We are sorry that they did this for we really wanted to know who was the second “Worst Fusser.”) By only one vote “Editor in Chief Howard de- feated “Our Debater” Floy Filer for third place. Francyl received four and Hoy three. Lyle Bain got two and Helen Myers, Derril Austin and Wil- lard Brown (we didn't think it of Wil- lard) each got one. This must have been very difficult to decide and we don't blame the boy who wrote: “Tied between Howard, Aldrich and Curry.” For Best Bluffer Francyl Howard had a walk away and got eleven votes. (It takes brains to be a successful bluf- fer). Floy Filer and Forest Campbell tied for second place with five votes each. Derril Austin and Fred Aldrich both got three. Winston 1 lenderson two and L. Myers, Gildow, Bain, Bo- etticher and Ixioney each one. Most Studious Senior is Willard Brown with seven votes. Maole Clausen six, Phillips and Boetticher each five. Gibson four, L. Myers thtee, Allen two, Tomlinson, Sharp, Dawson, Howard, Gildow and Mill- hollen each one. i or Brightest Senior “ Farmer Gib- son captured first place with ten votes. Kenneth Phillips was a close second with eight. Francyl Howard was next with six. Mildred Allen five, Hazel .toss three, L. Myers and Robert Boet- ticher each two. Scott, Miller, Hector, ; nit Brown each one. i or Sportiest Guy, Fred’s ability to comb his hair in the latest approved fashion won him first place with 15 votes. Hector got seven, Bain four, Curry two and L. Myers two. Lor First to Get Married, Hellen Myers took first place easily with a score of 22 points. Amy Perfect and Eleanor Bruce tied for second place with three each. It's funny but Harvey Curry only got two votes. Aldrich and Gibson, Miller, L. Myers and Howard each got one. Winston Henderson has die distinc- tion of being the Worst Cut Cp or Tease. Winston received twelve votes. Earl Scott was second with ten. Mal- lie Myers was third with seven. Derril Austin fourth with five and L. Myers fifth with three. Dale Wills two, Bo- etticher, Gibson, Bruce, Milholen, Filer, Howard and Burnett must have been teasing someone for they all received one vote: presumably from the person tormented. Lyle Bain was elected Best Politician. ( Probably because he was never known to agree with the majority and always argued for the repeal of a measure af- ter it was passed.) The official count was: Lyle Bain 27, L. Myers, Elton Gildow and Francyl Howard each 2; F. Myers, D. Austin and L. Burnett, one. Do you believe this ?
