Where is there a scene more heantifnl than the Colnmhia op- j)o.site Astoria durini ’ the season when hundi'eds of Avhite-wiiioed sail l)oats may lie seen far and near! It is especially so at ni.uht fall when the snn dips below the horizon, and the river takes on the mo.st beanti- fnl shades of red. oraim'e and iiray. forming a scene Avhich no artist can paint. ( )ne noticeable feature of the lliyh School is the lack of flowers and })ictnres in the various rooms. Althongh there is some excuse for the absence of pictures as o ir school is com] aratively new. there is none for not having flowers. AVe have these things in onr homes and why shonld we not have them in onr school rooms since we spend Inlly as mnch time hei'e. Pdowers and good pictures wonld greatly add to the beaidy of onr High School and make the honrs spent in study mnch moi-e jjleasant. One of the hii-gest nniversities of this conidiy which h.as es¬ tablished a snccessfnl foian of “student self govei-nmeiit' ’ has done so by means of only five specific rides. For oiir pni'pose we (|uofe fwo, as applicable fo any tMlncafional nistitntioii, whefhm’ it be nnivirsity or high school. Hide II. No stndent shall paidicijiate in more than one dramatic performance in any one year.’' f Rule IV. “Social fuuetions shall be limited to Friday and Sat¬ urday nights.” Frequent preparation for entertainments, the learning of parts, rehearsals, etc., take the mind from study. Frequent social affairs are even more detracting; for no matter hoAV simple they may he, the autiiupation beforehand and the weariness afterward are not cf)nduetive to keen mentality. Let us “cut out too many good times during our high school course and we shall see an improvement in our scholarship. Years ago, the Astoria High School began the publication of a paper called the “Quill.” After some time, the interest waning, the paper Avas discontinued. In the year 1905, the publication was again started, and this time it was called the “Zephyrus, ” meaning “west Avind.” The first editor in chief of the “Zephyrus” Avas LaAvrence Rogers, associate editor, Annie Bergman, and business manager, Ilaiwey Allen. Since that time the ])uhlication of the “Zephyrus” has con¬ tinued Avithout interruption. It is noAv a large and Avell conducted paper full of interest to students and to those not connected Avith the school. It is published monthly and sells for tAventy cents a copy. The annual edition of 1912 is larger and better than any that haAm preceded it. 8 jracult MISS (iERTRUDE IIELSE Teacher of Enijlish : IISS OLIVE L. AVOODWAPJ) Teacher of Gennaa AIR. J. E.

Class of 11)12. C. A. L. ’12. ID Ipropbcc of the Class of '12 As 1 was growing old, fat, and rich, I desired to visit my old ],ome, Astona, and see sonm of n.y old schoolnnates of the class 1-. I ordered my yrip packed, and Ihe areonn.hde brought around to the aoor. I hid my good wife goodi)ye, climbed into my areomobde, and was off at the rate of 120 miles an hour. I sailed over city after city, until at last I arrived at the 1 acihc, and Astoria. I landed at the Park, and took a cable car to the city. 1 got off the car at ! th and Duane St., and looked around. Ihe city luul grown to such an extent that I was utterly lo.st and did not know jny way. As no policeman was near, I stopped a tall slim man with a dense black beard tliat completely covered his face, and asked him the way to the Superintendent’s office, lie stopped and looked at me a minute, and exteiuDd his hand with a hearty, ‘'Hello, Bill.” I was so surprised that I hardly knew what to say until 1 recognized Die old smile of “Wags’ Bakin. “Hello, ‘AVags,’ how are voii? AVhere have you been ? What are you doing and why ari you in su('h a hurry ! I asked as fast as I ('ould. “Hold on ! AAdiere ilid you begin .’ AVhat was your first ([uestioii ?” said “Wags,” and 1 knew that he was up to his old trick of forgetting. 1 used the word that was always a remedy for forget fulne. s in 1l;e oht school days; “ Virginia, where is she?” The wo.rd worked like a charm. “AA ags” gave a yell, and started down the street, dragging me by the arm. After this I found that A'irginia was Editor of a “Popular A ote for Alan” paix'r, and that “AVags” was her business manager. He was now late, and was afraid that she would “give him tits.” “A cll, here is the building,” said “AVags,” and I looked up at Ihe forty-two story building in which “(linger” liad her paper. AA e took the elevator to the ninth floor, and entered Aliss A'irginia's office. 8he had just begun talking to “AA'ags” Avhen she saw' me, and c-sclaimed, “AAdiy Billy, how are you? 'fake tlmt chair.” T Had to tell them my history from tin time I left the .A. 11. S., until the time of my arrival in the city. After a very nic'c talk with A irginia about hei’ prospects and the good old days at High School, I left with “AVags” to visit some of the other memhers of the class of B2. 20 Lenoiv M('( i ivyoi’ I found t(t ho a doctor as jolly and happy as shi h.ad l)ccn in the mod old school days. After 1 had left Ijtniore's office and wa.s takiny in the t(- vn. iny attinition was called to a reiiia.rkahh woman standini;' in a cart, trying’ with mnch yt'stnriny and lond taikinti;, to sell .soiiu kind of a patent inedieiiu'. I thonyht 1 i-eeo iiizcd h.er. so 1 st(“pi)ed closer. At that ininnte she tniaied her fac-e towards me. and [ reeounized deiinie dolnsson. I imuh myst'lf known and .l(‘nnie told me how she was niakiim' a yrand sneeess of selling' a drny, a enre fe.)' all e ■ils and ills, d'his drny was made hy Anynst I’esehl, one of tin best known fake doetoi’s of Amei’ica. 1 hid her oodhye and started down the stri'ct. I had seare(‘ly yone ten steps when a proce.s,sion of peoide with spades ami shovels over their shonldei’s came walkiny down the street, sinyin lustily. At theii' head marched a man who looked familiar, so I iiave a sliyht whistle. The man turned around, walked quickly to me, and extended his hand, with a “Ilow'de Bill.” “Why John, how are yon? What are you doin ?” While askiny these (piestions 1 was lookiny John carefully ovei', and observed that he was dreessed in tlu‘ latest style, with a heavy yold chain across a plaid vest, and everythiny els( to match. ] said “Oh, llo. old felh.w, yon are a sportiny man. are yon?” John Granhery then said: “Oh. yon .see, I an a walkiny deleyate tor the Glam I)iyyei-s' rnion and we aiv out on a strike, Solony. ” Walkiny farther down the street I saw a small hand of people— two women and one man. The man was Instily hlowiny a cornet, and the women were rattliny tambourines and sinyiny “Salvation w the B est Thiny in the World.” On nearer approach I r( coynize(i the two women as Leola Ball and Ella Karinen. I did not at tii-st rta-oy- nize the man, hi'acn-o of his uniform and his lony brown hair which hnny in ti’esses over his shoulders. I saw “Ways” Eakin linrryiny hy, so T stoi)ped him, and asked him the name of yonder individual with the lony hair. I will in- ti'odma him to yon,” says “Ways, and with tl'.esi' woi'ds lu“ titok me by th( arm, marclual me up to the man and said .Mr. (ica Lai- seii, h't me inti'odncc’ y n to Bill Wcotton.” . t the sound of Ways voice, the man turned and wrnny my hand, seeminyly vei-joyed to see me ayain. After a yreat deal of (inestioniny. 1 found that “G ‘a ' had estahli'.-hed a new reliyion, that helief (d‘ which was that the men mn.st ( i ■ i ' ,i)” ,v.ar tans I, air, anj I also foun.l that Klla atol I.eola tvere the only converts that he had been aide to train. , , , , s 1 left “(Jea,’ T heard “Waffs” mutter, “You don t have ,o be Larsen to be crazy.” “Almost,” I said. ‘AYatrs” and I then walk¬ ed to his rooms, and there we talked over old tunes and ot old fi lends. “Where is “Heinie” Jeldness?” I asked. Wa rs” answered sadly, “Tfeinie is among- the dead. Dead!” said I. “Oh, that is too bad, when did he die? lie didn’t die,” said “Wags.” “He is an rndertaker at Goble.” Suddenly I saw through the joke. “And where is Tunie Juntti?” “Oh,” said “Wags,” she is a school teacher in the Clat.skanie high school.” ‘ And Victor Moore, what d’ him?” lie tends bar,” said “Wags.” ‘ ‘ A saloon-keeper 1 ’ ’ said I . “Xo, no saloon-kcepei , he is janitor in the Court House, said “Wags.” “What of Kate Barry, A.sta Hauge, and Edith Lorn.sten ? Are they dead, or do they keep salomis?” 1 asked, somewhat piiiued at “Wags” jokes. “Xo,” said “Wags.” “They run a cannery. “Kun a cannery! said I, “ Why man, the fish industry was abandoned ten years ago.” “I didn’t say that they had anything to do with fish; they are the English teachers in A.stc'ria’s three high schools. With this I shied a plate, but he laughingly ducked, and said, “Don’t get sore. Bill. It didn’t help any, so I cooled down and asked “Wags, ‘‘What fdiout Esther .h‘1t('rs? Is she with the (haul or is she another joke? No, said Wags, She' isu t a joke, she is the mayor at War- K'liton on a r( form tii-kcd, and k(“cps all lazy jieople and grafters go¬ ing some, I can tell you.” Dh, 1 shaw, W aii-s, lets go up to yooi- romus.

Second Term : Pi'esident, August Pe.schl. Vice-President. Rernice IcCregor. Secivtary. Virginia Petersen. Fnder the care of i Ir. Brayton our studies began. Did anyone iver bring .snuff to sehool ? It is an event to be remembered that K. B. remained in our history class but two days all tei-m. (fui‘ class was distinguished by the fact that one of its members. August Peschl, gained a position on the football team where he won many honors for his class and himself. ( )nce upon a time, as the .story goes — some strange things happen¬ ed at school. ( )ur books wiu'e removed, whereat all of ns took tests for lack of the necessary ('(pni)ment to do anytliing else. The alfair was not so fnnny when the hoys were made to carry all the books down from their biding i)lace. And then the Freshmen picnic — Oh. what spoid ! The crowd land¬ ed at Knappton amidst a downpour of rain. Bnt what of that to the .siiii'it of the class t'f 1!IP2? An empty building was found and a ])lcasant time was s])ent in dancing and other amusements. After lunch the class e.xplonel the surrounding country and then cruised up and «iown the river befon returning. Mr. Smith, .Mi’.

A very enteitaining i)eiT'orn;ance was given composed of tableaux, singing, etc In the latter pan of the second term we came to school only to s( e the Junior flag fh ating on high at the top of the telegraph pole which was surrounded hy barb wii-e and notwitlistanding our efforts, the flag still floated. But we ustal this experience to our advantage, for the next year W(' were victorious over the same class who were then Seniors. Who will forget that Sophomore jiienic ?

The next attem])t was a Fafeteria, whieh was held in the lu-e ent Domestic Science room. How good tho.se hot beans tasted! But how heavv they were to carry up the hill! And the Junior lunch (f the left- oveij the next day.

'I'lie annual numb( r of tlu Z('|)hyrus has rcstcal most heavily upon the Seniors and they have mideavored to do their bc.st. 'Phis is il- lu.strated by the fact that tluw have consented to hav( their pictiiivs ] laced in that jiaper, though many feared that it would spoil the same. 25 The class liave decided to purchase rings and the order lias l)een sent. Pixtensive preparations are heing made for a Class Day to Avhieh the school and friends will he invited. We expect to have a picnic in Ihe near future and it will undoubtedly be a success. This is our hi.story in the A. 11. S. hut there is much that may never he written. Our studies are recorded in that most precious of hooks— the “Black Book,” and we believe that our standing is one to be proud of. In all our efforts, in whatever line they might be, we liave always been ably suiiported by the faculty and our friends. L. McG.

Oh, a blonde by the name of AlcOreg’or, To this class lends a “fnnny hone” flavor. She’s (piick at a .ioke, For many she wrote. For this excellent little old pai)er. If IT. Jeldness gets thi’ongh with his class. It’ll re(inire a whole lot of lirass, And a ])retty big spurt. For yon know he’s a flirt. And is awfully in love with a lass. Xow a .Seuior so jolly called E.sther, Is known as a famous debater. Of the “Zeph” she’s an “ed.” Now enough has been said. Except that we all hate to lose her. Tunie Juntti.a chemistry student, Has never been known to he ]U’udent, She gets on the wiggles. And then starts the giggles. But if Aloore didnT tease her she wouldn’t. A g'irdiron hero is Victor, At his .studies he’s not such a flunker, For he is one. Not in the run. Of the ordinary foot hall jdayer. 28 Of len ihy proportions is Etlith, Her classics this girl never reacleth, She ’s a pretty good sort, And also some sport, Though I believe on “iMellins she feedetl Very quiet and thoughtful is Jeuuie. You can pick her out anicug many. She is bashfid and shy. And she never asks why,'' And promptly she writes up her essay. One of our best fellows is Eakiii, Whose faults are girls and sarcasm, He manages Imsiuess, For the A. II. S. Zcphyrus, But a “rep’’ as a “stude” he's not makiu Our classiest girl is Virginia, She’s a credit to our old Astoria. On the Zeph she's a .shark.

It is cut shoi't by various oi'gans bein'; I voin o it Init the reinaiiulei’ of tlie l)ody continiu s in a re.st- state unless acted upon l)y .some other inflinuices or ayents. ” Ibis is ii statement made in tlie year 1!)12 when the V(‘1I known scientist John Billiam had completed his studies on “Life, its Works.” In order to prove this to the satisfaction of l)oth yreat and .smali, Bil- banis constructed a cave, far in the wilderne.ss of the Rocky Mountains, lie lined it with a.sbestos ami ylass to jireveiit any clianye of air or tem¬ perature, and made it completely air tiyht. It was next attached to yreat vacuum pumps, operated by electiacity stored in a series of Ley¬ den .jars. These jars had the power of ab.stractiny electricity from the- air — this was another scientific invention of Billiams. It was so arranged that these wonderful pumps would pum[) the air from the cave in twenty minutes. The electricity of the jars would be all used in this time, and it would rt'cpiire a hundred years for enouoli electricity to be extracted from the air to reverse' the |)umps and thus to reiiiimi) the air into the chambers, and to open the hermeti¬ cally sealed lock of the entrance of the chamlier. Billiams was ready for his experiment. He (‘iitered his tomb of one hundred years, arramied his couch, jilaced his chloroform bottle near at hand and tested his ajiparatus to .s( e that nothiny would fail. Satisfied and supremely haiijiy, he laid himself down, placed the sponye of chloroform to his nose and .set the machim ry in nrition. 'i'lie apii.iratus starteil with a whirr. The door slammed shut; ti'e an was rapidly juimped out; and at last stillness roiyiK'd, and Billiams was a prisiiiier for a hundred yeai's, if all went riyht — for entcrnity, if anythiny went wrony. Written by W. W., Billiam 's Bioyi'apher. Billiams, himself, completes the account of the incident; After I took tin chloi-oform 1 L'll int-) a beautiful ;ind womlerful sleeji with no cares, no trials, and no woi'ries. A life — no, not a life, bat an e.xisteuce like a slow moviny river, now wendiny its way tlmmyh shady ylens. now ylidiny by bi'antiful mountains, but always yrand, beautiful and tran((uil. So was my existence In my captive cave hiylt 31 up in the moniitains for one hnndred years. Wlien the hnndi’ed years were up, the pnnips started to work and the d(ior opened. I coughed and sat up as alive as I was before I en¬ tered the chandler. I felt a little sick, this was probably due to the chloroform, and terribly hnngry.,1 had forgotten niy breakfast and dinnei' during my excitement the night before — no, I mean the hun¬ dred years before. , After I felt a little better and stretched myself, I determin.ed to go ont and get upon a railroad train and make haste to te.stify of my remarkable invention. I strode out of the door of my tomb, when low and liehold ! the place I left as a bai-ren wild was now a thriving city — tliriving but very, very (pieer. The sti’cets were ] aved with bloclcs of metal, and the houses were suspended in midair without any vi' ible means of support. Nob(Kl AS’alked on the ground but all seemed to perambulate in the air without the least effort. The mode of dress had been radically '-hanged, women : eenied to be garbed in the dress of man and men in that of women. Their cuithing did not seem to be made of cloth, but a metal-like substance softer than silk, Avhich T afterwards found was more comfortal. le to wear than that of former texture. Everx'one seemed to stare at me curiously — me, a man dres -'ed in +he garb of a woman, fley ho! Imre came a man walking through the air. I laughed because he h;oked so (pieer with those skirts and frills on, prancing along the midair. The little man whom 1 first saw was alighting on the pavenmiit at my side, lie spoke a few words in a language that I had studded — Esperanto. These Avere the words he said which I translate into the long dead language, English: “(Jood day, stranger, Avhat brings you here with your (|ueer garb and most extraordinary appearance? Are von descended from a race of giants? You are larger than our women.” Before I could answer down the air jiath came a band of these pigmy men, bearing banners with the legend, “Votes for men.” They gathered at a corner of a building over my head and began to give feeble stump sjieeches. A woman policeman, hurrying down from the ciowds, pnickly di.spersed them. T asked the little man how it was that the houses were suspended in the air, and how the people were able to walk in the air without fall- 32 Before he could answer, however, I observed an old fanner woman comin alono- driving' in her aeroplane Avith a load of hay.

Don't yon hear the gay birds singing? Hark to those dear little ones! Can't you feel the joy they’re bringing? Can’t you see that Spring has come? “Spring has come! Thru’ the ground the flow’rs are peeping, Timidly, and one by one, From where all winter they’ve been sleeping, For they see that Spring has come.’’ A bright little bird chirped this gay airy song ns he flitted from bough to bouiih of an old knarled apple tree whose outspread branches were billowed with a cloiul of fragrant blossoms, some just budding out, while the sunset tinted petals of others fluttered down to the cool dark grass, like so many sweet scented snow-flakes. I sat dreaming lieneath, lulled by the song and the murmer of the soft lireeze. A cluster of blossoms, pecked off by the tiny singer, fluttered to the ground. I bent over and was just about to pick up the ':dnster when the petals rolled back and disclosed a tiny head nestled against •i. small satiny leaf. Two little black eyes blinked at me, and a little smile twinkled in the corners of the u{)tui-ned mouth. “Well, if you'll shut yoiir mouth I’ll come out, but I don’t want to be swallowed,’’ the little mouth curled itself into these words. I promptly clo.sed my mouth w’hich had been open on account of my amazement, and out stepped the spriest little elf that ever graced fairyland. He was clothed from head to foot in a little green suit, with those upturned toes and little round cap without wdiieh a creature of fairyland could never be an elf. At his side hung a silver bugle, as bright and .shining, as his little brown face. “Do you like it?” “What?” I gasped. “Me.” “Oh, yes, indeed I do! You are just as sweet as can be. I am .sure I could eat you,” I could not help saying just to see him .scam]ier 35 about the cluster of flowers. When he gained the other side, he cried out in his sliarp little treble, “Oh, no you won’t.” And he kept on the other side of the blossoms until I assured him that there was no¬ thing to fear. “Would you like to go to the Spring Opening?” he asked when we were again friends. “Oil, yes, what is it? Is it when the fairies buy their new spring suits?” lie chuckled at this and placed his bugle to his lips, blowing a long silvery note. Immediately I heard a multitude of whispering voices. I’hey drew nearer and 1 beheld a host of tiny air iieople laughing and talking. They bore a great, almost invisible cloak, which they flapped about as they danced along the sunlit path of air. These are the little wind children, whom you hear when you think the wind is whistling. They will take us to the Spring Open¬ ing, my little fiaend piped uj) with a merry nod. AVe seated cairselves on the cloak and wei'e soon borne among the chattering wind children to a mossy grove deep in the heart of a mighty whispering fore st. AVe seated ourselves on toailstools, (this .seemed pieer for they always had seemed so tiny to me before) and from everywhere, frian the Imshes and through the moss, from aliove and from below, running, hopping, flitting, and skipping came in¬ numerable small insects and animals. They formed a circle, and my little elf bounderl into the midst of them and explained that this was a circus and that he was the clown, while Air. Spider vas the ring ma.s- ter. After a sign from Air. Spider a little green snake curled up like a hoop; and a rabbit with a gayly colored butterfly tilting daintily on his back like a ballet-dancer, jumped through the hoop and perform¬ ed other daring feats. The spider sjuin a web shaped like a trapeze on which the lively bee swning; and all the other animals and insects took their turns in performing while the crickets furnished music on their wnngs and several little black moles played minstrels. The fun was at its best when suddenly the little elf lilew his sliver Imgle. Every animal and insect of the circus troope disappeared as ciuiekly as it had come, leaving his little majesty, the elf, alone before me He cliuckled softly to himself, and his eyes and mouth rivaled each other in their merry twinkling. 36 hand, he rushed me alon ' to the side of a. tinkling', ])ahliny l)fook amid the soft sluules of murmurin”' alders. He yave me a tiny vial and l)ade me till it ith watei’ of the crystal — the brook. A.s 1 dipped it int(' the clear water, a most delicately ])ur(“ odor lilled tlu‘ air. laftiijy tin' vial, I found that it was filled with a i)erfnme so immeasurably sweet tluit my senses were dulled by it. Prc'sently I felt a tiny haml tuyei!!”’ at mine. “ Ye must away, or it will be too late,' the little elf wliis])ered as if afraid to di.stnrb the wateiN of the crystal brook. AVe flitted from flower to flower letting' a droj) of the perfumed water fall upon their sleeping' heads. Immediately their leaves curleil l-ack, and they danced in the sunlight, sending forth a fragrama' which seemed almost unearthly. Presently there was a whole crowd of these sjiring flowers “fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Again the clear note of the silver bugle broke the silence of Flower- land. Scarcely had its echo returned to us when I lu'ard Hie rustling cf many tiny feet upmi the soft, green cai'jiet of leaves. A mighty army of flowers was coming on. First came the satiny trilliuns will', their great glossy leaves in company with the sweet scented violet. 1 hey were followed by anemonaes, Johnny-jump-ui s with tlnur saucy faces, columbines, rock-lilies, dog-tooth. Indian-piiies, bleeding-Irmrts. fo-K-gloves, blue-bells, lady-slippers, and a host of trailing vines and ferns. Scarcely had the last fern made its way through tlii' fe-est, when the .sun began to paint the western sky. (Ireat fleecy clouds hovered overhead, tinted with the rosy and lavender lights of the de¬ clining sun; while lieneath, the gi'cat. green forest foldi'd itsi'lf ‘m the ([uiet solitude of the first si'ring nignt.

Port of Spain, Trinidad, B. W. 1. “Left New York on the twenty-fonrth of Febrnary, and arrived here after a .seven days trip. We were met by tlie Ccmpany's repre¬ sentative and are his guests on board his steam yacht, the “Viking.” Tomorrow we visit the famous Asphalt Lake, or “Lake of Pitch,” the large.st depo.' it of this kind in the woi-ld. Next day we cross to Yene- uela, to a place called Guanoco, where the company owns anothei asphalt lake— from here we go inland, our head(iuarters will be a town called iVraturin, from here we work the county to Bolivar, in the Orinoco river— looking for oil and minerals. We will travel in pairs, and have with us, a native cook, two native interpreters and as many others as we need to help us. We will often be far from communication of any kind. This city. Port of Spain, is the first place at which the American fleet landed on its trip around the world, it is an English posses.sion, and has r.bout GO, 000 inhabitants, two thii-ds of whom are black. The blacks speak good English and hold positions such as street car men, chauf¬ feurs, etc. The city is very clean, with all the streets of asphalt. The costumes of the natives varied — fi-om nothing in the piekaninies tc gorgeousness in some of the women. I .suppose it is like all tropical cities, but to me it is very interesting. I v«aw cocoanut and cocoa trees, bananas and breadfruit. Had many strange fruits and vegetables for dinner today, they were all good. This is to let you know that I am on the trial to IMaturin and miles trom nowher e Have had one trouble aftei' another— the trail is so rough that our burros lost their ])aek,s every little while; one of our best men was bitten by a scorpion and lias an infectetl leg, but as we carry a sui-geons outfit with us, am in hopes it will not be stuuous. Have left him behind with a native to look after him. He hoiv s to jh'in us in Maturin. The trail is just a path, and a very narrcnv one, through the jungle. Ai-rived in Maturin, will probably rest here a while. Have met the mayor of the town and the President of the State. iNtaturin is about the size of A.storia, but very different in appearance. I think 38 lliat we iiULst be the first Americans who havo been here in many years because of the way they stare at ils ami follow us around. We found one man who can speak En lLsh ami he has been taking’ us ai’ound. 'Fhe country around here is principally large plains, and a good deal of cattle raising is done, much more could be done of the men were not so indolent — they sleep most of the time. The houses are all oue .story and are built of plaster or mud, and are of moorish architecture. There are no windows, but a large door in each side of the hou.se, one opening into the sti’eet, the other into a court yard, or “patio.” There are no stoves, all cooking is done on iron plates in the yard. The poor- houses are made of bamboo or mud, with a roof of palm leaves. To¬ morrow is to be a great day here, the celebration of the installation of the first electi’ic lighting plant. We have been asked to ])articipate in the festivities by our friend, the mayor, and will be on liand. After that we leave on another long hard trip, and you may not hear from iije for a month or more.” , Ibe dbinooh limfnb Introduction. X-IK nature of the Chinook wind is well known. When it be- Agins to blow it affects the high altitudes first gradually coming down, sometimes making a I’ushing noise overhead before it is The snow disapi)ears very rapidly before it, especially is this true east of the Cascades. Li-geud. Long, long ago when animals and bii’ds were peoitle, there lived two men, the Southwind and the Xorthwind, and each had four Ill-others. There was great hatred between these brothers because of iheir opposi te dispositions. Cne day the olde.st brother of NoiThwind went on a long journey, ;,nd when lie returned, he told what fun he had had, and of the dam¬ age he had done to people he nnd. He laughed long ami loud be- 39 cause the ])e()ple ha;l .such fear of him, and Im was especially amused at an old couple, the snowbird and his wife, whom he had almost trozen to death. It had been great si)ort to see the little old man roll in the snow when he had breathed upon him. Northwind’s brothers decided to go on a .jouimey the next day to see some fun, but they did not know that the oldest brother of South- wind had overheard their plans. lie was very sorry for the .snow¬ bird and his wife because he had seen them that morning and they had told him of their troul)le and asked for his assistance. Food was very scarce, and tlie old ])eo])le were i2i despair because they knew where nothing could be found. The sympathies of Houthwind's lu’other Avent out to them and Adieu he retuimed and told his bi-others of the treatment the oldest brother of Xoi-tliAvind had giA'en the old people, they decided that .some¬ thing must be done: for XortliAvind had done as he pleased too long rdready and it Avas iioav time to make Avar upon him. A challenge to this effect Avas therefore sent immediately to the XortliAvind and his brothers. The challenge Avas accepted and the oldest brother blcAv fiercely oA'er the tops of the trees and mouiitain.s ami the other brothers fol- loAved on the sjiace beloAv, leaAung in their paths desolation and great havoc. SoutliAviml and his brothers looked on poAverless to preAmiit. but they started out to repair the tlamage as much as possible. The olde.st brother took the lightest position among the clouds and the others fol- loAAwd beloAv, as XortliAvind ’s brothers had done. When they returned from the trip CATrything had been much im¬ proved. It Avas noAv the turn of the X'ortliAvind brothers to make an¬ other trial of their poAver, so they Avent as before only more sloAvly and they Aiere gone much longer. They Avere again folloAved by Southwind and his brothers, avIio Avent faster on their second trip and returned sooner than before. Both sides made Tat trials, then the XorthAvind brothers ga.Aa' up the contest and the SoutliAvind brothers drove them into a caAU in the top of a mountain. There is a hole in this mountain to this day and anyone pa.ssing can feel cool air no matter Iioav hot the day may be. 40 Sometbiiu3 ’) ACK Ilayfield, a Junioi’ at O. A. was speiuliii ' liis smnmep vacation with his undo in old Moxioo. lie was taking a oonrso in enuineeriny and mining at colleue and eonse(((‘untiy spent luneh of his time “ pt‘ospeetin in the liills aroiind his uncle’s shi'ep raneli. One afternoon when lie had yone farther into the mountains than usual, he chanced upon what seemed a small settlement. On elimhimr down to the jilace he saw that it was really a deserted camp. He had onee heard of an ahandoned mini' up in tin mountains that had a liad omen attached to it. and he supjiosed that this must he the place. The camp had been started by a jiarty of yonny Americans who had Imped to become rich on the silver in the hills, but who after diyyiny a few tunnels, had become disappointed and left the place. A.s .lack walkeil alony the narrow street between buildinys, it seemed to him that the place had been deserted only recently: tbe old rojie danyled and clattei'ed ayainst the dinner bell, throuyh the half oiiened doors of the bunk houses he could .sci thinys left in hasty ciisorder, in the mess house wei'e dishe.s and cookiny utensils strewn about in a most ordinary manner, the only thiny that the placo lack¬ ed was life, for not even a bird flew throuyb the sky ai)ove. ''.Vith all the.se siyns of life and yet none, the jilace was e.xtremely uneaTiny; everywhere it seemed as if some hidden jiresence wei'c lui'kiny around corners or l)ehind doors. As Jack entei'ed various houses, he found himself overcome by an irre.sistible desire to look over bis shoulder, lie seemed to feel somethiny lookiny at him. and two oi’ thi’ce times cauyht himself turniny abruptly to face only stillne.ss and em])tiness. Resolviny that the place had an uncanny effect on him he deciil- ed to leave it immediately, lie .started down the hill on a dead lam when all of a sudden somethiny tripped him, he fell and was linrled beadlony with sticks and .stones into darkness, lie .jumi)ed U|) oidy to sink back ayain with a .sharp i)ain in his ankle. The dust choked him and the brush blinded him so that he could see nothiny but a faint light overhead. When he came more fully to his senses he found that he had 'u-oken 41 tliroug'li tlie crust of an old iiiininf ' shaft, and had fallen to the bot¬ tom spraining' his ankle, and tliat it vas only owing' to the lirush that fell with him that his life was saved, he called and hallooed in vain. Nobody was near. Ilis only clnuice of discovery lay in his friend'.s tracking him to this spot and helping him out of the hole. The few more hours of daylight wore slowly on. and as the I’cd fiuled from the glimpse of sky above, dack ilozed off into a . onnd sleep. Suddeidy he was awakened with a start, his ankle pained him horribly, his many cuts and bruises smarted and ached, and added to this he seemed overcome by the most peculiar .sensation of the nearness of some one, such a sensation as he had e.xperinced earlier in the day. A peculiar noise .somewhere in the distance fell upon his ear witn the regularity of clock work. ms it a noise or the fever in his brain? “Was he becoming delirious? Tie had heard of people’s going i?isane and dying in solitude. He li.stened attentively, the sonnd came at regular intervals. It was something real, it .sonnded like the rap of metal on the rocks. Suddenly it flashed upon him that it was his friends who had found him and were trying to dig him out. Joyfully he shouted to them, but the call contained only a hollow mockery that ■'cas echoed back to him from the recesses of the cavern. His hair .seemed to stand on end. his eyes sought to fathom the darkness, b d all he discovered was an annoying sensation of there be¬ ing something behind him. T’ainfully he dragged himself over to the rough wall and with his back safely defended he again listened for the A cird noise. Pick — ])ick — pick — came the sound evenly. It horrified him, yet fascinated him. What could it be? What was it? Once the pick iuisse l a stroke and he wanted to scream so wrought up were his nerves. Xeai'cr and nearer came that unearthly sound — nearer and rearer with that same dolefnl regidarity. No ! the noise was no that made by his frieiuls, he felt that it pi'oceeded from something unearth¬ ly. Now he conid distinctly hear the body of something inovinv with the inck. He wanted to call out, but his lips were dry and his throat closed. His eyes bnrned with the strain of trying to see. Then the sound ceased. He was frantic with the terror of something unseen. He seemed paralizetl, as much as he wished to do so he could not move. 42 he could not even feel his body, only the beat of his heart pound-'d in his ears, and a most i)eculiar sensation i-an up his spine and s(‘emed ti) grip his throat. He shouted violently as he lu ard a slight groan down the passage. Then he heard something dragging itself along like a wounded beast. Hut it was not an animal, as it eaim nearer be could hear h'“avy breathing and once moiv a stifled groan. It was a buman being — the slow, painful dragging came within a few feet of him, his head seemed Inirsting, his blood fn.zen in his veins. Was the awful thing humaii — oi' had it been human .’ All the pent U}) emotion of horror burst upon him in one shock, and with superhuman efforts he gave one horrible, weird .scream — and then oblivion. The next thing Jack llaytield realized was a comfoi‘tal)le sensa¬ tion of someone bathing his hot lu'ad in cool water. He opened his eyes to see that he was again upon the green earth, and two of his friends bending over him. They had missed him and had organized a •searching jiaidy. About two o'clock in the morning they wei'c startled by an unearthly shriek. Following it to its source they found Jack. Tuiconscious in the old shaft, and had, with ropes, pulled him up. Jack told his .story and insisted on tluhr again descending into the siiaft and looking for something. Laughing one of the boys went down oidy to return with a most curious and awe.struck expre.ssion on his fact . Xot six feet from the place where Jack had lain was the skth'ton of a man. Its leg was broken at the hip. Farther back in the pass¬ age was a rusty, broken pick with which the poor creatuiv had dragged himself along. Impiii-ies led to the information that one of the oi-iginal Amei'i- cans disappeared and was thought by his comiianions to have been killed bv (Ireasers. Xobody knew where or how he had met his death. 1). F. 'i:k 43 ©lie of ©ur ©rabuates OW far this little lii ili sehool throws its beam of learning! It ' is wonderful to learn that Ralph H. Worsley, a graduate from this high school in 189! , is now holding a responsible position among the schools of the Philii)pine Islands. He has been on the is¬ lands for four years, he was first principal of the Sorogan High Sehool ( n the Island of Sorogan. From here he was advanced to the i Ianila paper of the Manila High Scho(il, we have the following clipping: “The ‘C'oeoanut’ has sad news foi- the students of the IManila High Sehool. ‘If you have tears, ])repare to shed them now.’ i Ir. AVorsley leaves the school with great reluctance. The Bureau of Education has appointed him Pi’incipal of the Iloilo High School, and it is with heaw h.earts that we take the pen to writ ' of his unexpected departure.” A silver cup was pre.sented to him by the Seniors of this high sch.)oI to .show their regret at his departure, and to show their admiration of him. The Iloilo High School, of which Air. AA orsley has been given the principalship, is the second high school in standing in the Philippine Islands. It is located at Iloilo, Panay Lsland; and has a large corps of teachers, six hundred pupils, and ten acres of school grounds. It gives us great pleasure that Air. AAMr.sley has been given .so responsible a position and we wish him the very best success. 44 Stuno ! H OW tiivd lie was of it all! It seemed as if the past week had been an endless one. Sneh were the thonehts of .Mr. Heart ly the tt 'fH'her in the Lincolnshire hiyh school. Althonyli lie was enpiloyed as a freshman teacher, it was found necessary for him to take the Senior Enylish class. Xow it is general¬ ly supposed that Seniors are of necessity very diliye'd ami diynitied students. But this class, as a whole, was an e.xceptioii. As is usual¬ ly the ease, some were more mi' ’chevious than others, amoiiy whom was a dark haired, dark eyed yirl named Dorothy, but nicknamed ny her fellow'-students. Dor. , Ahw, it seems that Doroth.y was in an esi ecially troubh'sonii' mood all week and by Friday Avas almost lieyond endurance hy rifr. llwartly. She passed notes, whispered, intimtionally said thinys that wmihl make the class lauyh and then when .'•he was rebuked, .she seemed to turn that into a .ioke. ft is no wonder that the teacher left school that Friday witii the determination to foryet his troubh's until the next .Monday. IMr. lieartly was invited by some of his associates at his boardiny house, to yo on a tishiny expedition on Saturday. At first he thonyht of stay- iny at home and planniny his work for the next week, but finally he decided that he needed the recreation, 'file party returned aftei' lark and i lr. lieartly went to bed early for he wished to attend church in tlie morniny. Surely, here at least he could foryet tlie cla.ss axid his annoyiny pupil. But, however yood his intentions were, he was late to church, and just slipped into the first einjity jicw'. IMuch embarassed he .start'd straight in front, but he afterwards discovered that no matter how niucli he Avonld twist, it was impo.ssible to see the minister; therefore his attention began to drift and he noticed a very small girl sitting in front of him. Unconsciously he studied her hat, the color of her hair and also the trimness of her snit. Tie then began to wonder who she was and if she was as lonesome as he. flow curious he was as to her face ! He had decided that she must have Idue eyes, for he Avas very fond of 45 blue eyes and dark hair. He was sure that her hair was dark, for there was a small curl that had escajuKl and was hanging just back of her ear. Mr. lleartly had come to tlie conclusion that she must be one of those nice (luiet little girls Avho listened with the utmost interest to what you said ; yet one Avho had ideas of her own which she coidd ex¬ press without in the least oft'ending a person. Before he realized it the peoi)le were rising for the last hymn., He fumbled awkwardly for his place and disturbed the muff of the woman sitting next to him. He Avaited anxiously for the girl to turn, tor, by his imaginary sketches of her, he had aroused his curiosity. Stooping for his hat, Mr. lleartly dropped the hymn book; but the accident Avas intentional this time, for he Avanted some excuse to remain, that he might see the girl. Finally, liaAdng finished her chat Avith friends, she turned and IMr. lleartly, after “getting one good look at the face,” said, “XeA'er again,” for it Avas Dor., his tonnentor. L. McG. '12. Hn Unctbent on the ILClaUuskf IRiver aN' old fisherman A 'ho had liA'cd for tAventy-fiA’e years in Astoria receiA’ed a motor boat for Avhich he had hoped and AA'ishcd for w the last seA'en years. For this he had toiled and striA'en un¬ ceasingly, and this summer he had accumulated enough money to pirr- chase one. (Ji-eat Avas his pride and feeling of independence; he actually felt as if he had inherited a fortune. As soon as the boat aauis launched, he, of course, tried his ability to manage it, and as only a feAA' mishaps oceured, he ignored these, and Avas, on the A hole, A ery Avell pleased AA'ith the machine and himself. He boasted and argued Avith all the men that his boat aauas superior to theirs. He challenged them, but being inexpei'ieneecl, he could not run his machine properly, although it Avas one of the best make. When the other boats Avent ahead of him and asked him to throAA the line so that they might toAV him (Avhich is customarily said by the Auctorious 46 boat to the defeated one) he heeanie aiiirry and pi-otested witli all kinds of excuses. Early the next morning, still nndannted and desirous of display¬ ing his skill, he took his two sons with him and went np the Young’s Kiver. Ihe sons, being as ignorant of the maehine as the fathei him¬ self, (Inly admired his skill and remarked at the eftieieney of the ma¬ ehine. When the hews said they had heard mention made of a Wallnski Elver, the father said that he would show it to them liy drivinu' nj) It. True to his iiromise, he drove np the Walluski, which he consid¬ ered a navigable river. As they a.scended, they admired the beauty and attractiveness of tlie country on the hanks, and estimated tla value of the land for farm¬ ing. As the father was pointing at a farm and enthusiasticaliy de¬ claiming its good merits, all at once there was a shock. The tent which had been np all the time came down with a crash and the three oc¬ cupants fell forward with it in a tangled heap on the machine. The father having disentangled himself, and looked aliont to s(h what the trouble was. found to his surprise that they had driven into a snag snlmierged in water, about a foot below the surface, so that it could not lie seen from above. As his boat was undamaged, he seized an oar and tried to push the boat away, hut did not succeed. .The boys, having by this time also dis¬ entangled themselves., seized any available means by which they might lielp to disengage the boat. With these efforts tluyv succeeded only in pulling the boat more to one side, although tlu y tried all ])ossil)le means. Casting off' all hope they sat down to wait for some turn of affairs and to think what could possibly he done. At this time it was ])ast high water and was ebbing fast. Imagine theii’ chagrin when the water went down, their boat gradually liegan to tiji. Now here was a woicse trouble; they would soon he suspended in the air while the water would lie many feet below them, and they would not be able to get away un¬ til the return of the high tide which would not he again until eleven o’clock at night. As they calculated, in one hour the water went down two feet; in another, a few feet more; and in a few hours, they were up in the air 47 on the snaji', many feet above the snrfacc. Having nothing else to tlo, the father and sons consoled themselves by hoping for something to lui-n np. Still they were greatly tro d)led for even if someone should come to their rescue, he would surely jeer at them in their predicament and make the incident public. The tide was still ebbing, when a country boy going up to a farm espied them and ran to the bank. He saw that the boat couhl not go because a pipe at the bottom held it fast bound in the snag. He was kinddiearted and considerate of theii- foelings and remembering that there was no skiff on the whole Wallnski with which to help them, call¬ ed out to them to throw a line so that he might try to pull them olf. The father made a line out of odd jiieces of rope and attempted to tln-ow it across. Not being able but everytime throwing it so that the end was a few feet off the shore, the boy Avaded out to get it. (hi the shore he tried to pull the boat off by tugging with all his might, and, pausing a little while to rest, he considered. A bright idea entered his mind, he told them that he would be gone a few minutes, and ran back to the farm. Soon he returned with an ox team. Fastening the line to them he told them to “gid-dap and when the jerked, down the boat came Avith a thump. Having giA'en their heart-felt thanks to the boy. they left the riA'er AA’ith all siieed. The father declared that that Avas the last tiin. he Avould shoAV Wallnski to the boys. TT l THE OHKllN OF THE ASTORIA HIOII S( TlO0L.

Manual training has taken a strong hold in the public schools of the city. This training as taught in the schools of this city is not solely for the develojiment of the muscle, hut for the development and education of the mind, ddie course of instruction is so aiiangeii iliat the student must use his brains as well as his muscle. It is thor(';i‘.zhl pi’aetical. Although Manual training is not comjndsory in the high school, there are several classes made up solely of high school students. 1 hese high school students have taken such an interest in the work, that through the etforts of iMi . Kertig, the instructor in iNlanual 1 raining, an early morning class has been organizeil. 1 his class meets an hour each morning before the I’egular school s “ssion ta-gins.
