Poysky Nlemi Asikainen Hendrickson Jarvi Mis I’oysky Ye History of Ye January Knights IVhold ye reign of one scon bold and chivalrous knights and nineteen lair ladies. Three winters had they labored much, and upon the fourth were they entvtled to join the Knights of Ye Round 'fable. It so happened that ye bold and chivalrous Edward Poysky bore tie shield of this mighty order, and betwixt him and Paul Asikinen, all Other orders were smote with fear and trembling. Also it befell Lady Ellen Hendrickson to assist ye noble order, with its countless wealth, and Lady IIcivic Niemi to be the invaluable scribe. Then fell it so that Simari Jarvi, betekeneth with unmatched strength and display of Arms, smote all enemies from their midst, thereof. This mighty order of one score hold and chivalrous knights and mineteen fair ladies rode forth, throughout ye year, with unmatched honors. Ye Vodvil presented by these Knights and Ladies proved to other orders that they need not assay to match their skill. Alas! it befell this order to seek new worlds to conquer. As they durst not abide at ye Round Table further, they rode forth, bearing the shield that would ensure for them victory in the contests yet to come. Thus endeth the tale of Ye Brave Knights and Fair Ladies of 1926. Page Nine EDWARD POYSKV A clear fire, a clear hearth and the vigor of tl� e game.” Science course. President Jan.

Page Fourteen “BEING A CONCISE BI T COMPLETE IIISTOKIE OF THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF “YE ('LASS OF ’27” There eometh a time in tin lives of the greatest of men and women who they must bid good l v to that which they hold dearest. It is with this in mind that we turn back tin pages of time and review the glories and wondorous histone of “Ye noble knights of the order of 11)27.’ At a very tender age the majority of tin members of this gifted assembly trudged up the mountain side to Castle Astoria, ll was four long years ago on the epoch making date of Sept. 10, 1923. Recognizing the superior intelligence, all around ability and excellent qualities of leadership of the members of the class, the permission to become an organized class was granted them. The first year found them wearing the green, not as the underdogs, but as active contenders in every form f competition. By means of an ingenious idea they carried off tin honors in a spirited contest to determine which class in the castle could present tin most interesting assembly stunt. A bautiful purple and gold banner, awarded by the Executive Council, was the tribute paid to tin class for their achievement. Guided by capable leadership, the order carried on to tin Order of Pages. The selection of Sir Stanford Brooks, president; Lady Marjorie Chester, vico- ma y SENIOR OFFICERS Tolkka Hutching I'. Thompson Miss Brumbaugh E. Johnson Miss Willsic Sparks Page Fifteen president: Sir .John Dalgity. secretary: Lady Barbara Dayton, treasurer: Sir Sigurd liana and Sir Austin Peterson, sargeant-at-arms, proved to be a wise move and the class prospered mightily during this critical formative period. Their advisors were Lady Helen Hose and Sir Brookhart. 'I’he second year found “Ye Order of ’27 winning new laurels. Their basketball team walked away with the championship of all orders. Ye good old ‘ 27 filled all lower orders, and the higher orders with fear because o'' their prowess on the field of combat. Not realizing tin- importance of the class cup, they failed to concentrate their efforts upon this event. Realizin' , its importance later in the season however, and by a tremendous burst of enthusiasm they came within one point of tieing the Knights for first place. The leadership for this glorious year was in the hands of Sir .John Dalgity. president: Sir (Menu I (issuer, vice-president: Lady Marjorie Chester, secretary; Sir Ray McCartney, treasurer: Sir Stanford Brooks, councilman: Lady Madeline Brumbaugh and Sir McCormick, advisors. During this epochal period they placed one man on ye debate team and several on ye football, basketball, track and baseball teams. From this time on. the major portion of the athletics of the Castle rested on the shoulders of this order. Then came the time when the order might advance into the order of Knighthood. They assumed this status with a sober mind and dignity that bodied il! to any other orders who should disturb them. As Squires, ye order entered upon a series of smashing triumps. The presentation of “Ye Arrival of Kitty,” Ye “Squire Bust,” at the Riviera and the Cat n Fiddle: Ye championship of basketball and track teams, and Ye Squire’s Prom, which has never been equaled and probably never will be, filled the cup of glory to overflowing. Then came the climax to all this, the capturing the class cup by an over whelming number of points. The jov of crunchintr the haughty order of the Knights made ye year a glorious one. Ye order was successfully led by Lad Beryl Atwood, president: Sir Carl Cover, vice-president: Lady Alice Thompson, secretary: Lady Helen Klliott. treasurer; Lady Madeline Brumbaugh and Lady Isabel Willsie, advisors. Carried on by this crowning success vc order came into its own on a wave of triumph, holding the awe and esteem of all classes. Ye Order of Knighthood meant great things to the wearers of the 27 and it has added many laurels to its already well filled list. At the peak of success in the achievements of knighthood, the Order of “27 stood out like the rock of Gibraltar. The Senior Ball climaxed the social activities of this order. Tlu novel and interesting program at this dance will never be forgotten. The play of the Knights and their ladies. “.Just Out of College was presented with great dramatic ability and the fame of ”27” was broadcast to the four corners of the world. l'ase Sixteen Ye Knights and Indies of this famous order have celebrated the sacred rites of “Ye Knight’s Breakfast”; “Ye Knight’s Picnic ’; “Ye Knight’s Banquet”; and “Ye Knight’s (’hildhood Day.” Tis no wonder that the members of “Ye Order of “27 look back with loud memories on the events that have passed into history. Now this order is looking forward to new fields of adventure and to new laurels to gain. Those who guided ye order through these Knighthood Days are: President, Sir Brie Toikka; Secretary, Lady Laila Thompson: Treasurer, Sir Francis Sparks, with Lady Madeline Brumbaugh and Lady Isaliel Willsie, as advisors.

Twas early morning and tin sun, glancing from beneath a fleecy cloud, as it arose, shone upon Syvanen castle: its turrents and towers brightening: for a minute as the rays fell upon the cold grey stones. A short distance from the royal estate, riding a great white horse along the glade, cameth a young knight in armour. 11 is mount showed noble birth and intelligence as did the form of him who rode. He seemed not to take in the beauty of the scene before him but besought his horse for haste. Drawing nigh unto the castle the knight drew forth his horn and blew greate blasts upon it. Straightway the draw-bridge descended over the moat and horse and rider passed over and rode forward to the entrance of the castle. Sir Philip met the knight at the door, and inquired of him from whence he came. ‘“I cometh from Arthur's court, sir, spake the stranger. “And art thou one of Arthur's men?” “Yes, by my faith! “A profitable alliance truly, is that of Arthur. Kilter stranger—but what heest thy name? “I am entytled. Sir Robert Carruthers and I am the good king’s messenger. “What! Dearest thou news for me, from King Arthur? Out with it, Sir Hob, I would know the royal message: but hold hast thou partaken of food this morn? Nay, of course, nay. “Lady Helene! called he, “come forth and meet the king’s messenger. From behind the tapestry, came the lady of the castle. The gallant nobleman kneeled before her, saving: “A fair damsel, in truth, who appeareth familiar to me. Then spake Sir Philip: “I wot not but that ye hast seen her before, she is of the family of Klliott. “Haste thou, Lady Helene, order thy damsels to make ready meat for our noble guest. Come, Sir Hob, thy message; wherefore, cometh thou here?” “Ah, yes, sir Philip, tis pressing news. Something, we knoweth not what, has befallen the Lady Alice. She has been missing from the royal court these three days and all Stangland castle is in a state of lamentation. I’aKe Korty-two The fair Queen Artie hast not partaken of food for twelve hours, and sit and mourns for her favorite maiden. The Lady Lila, sister to Lady Alice is in no better state and Sir Eric sweareth by his sword lie shall not rest until she he found. The king hath ordered that all his knights gather to Ins castle this night to begin search for the fair damsel. I hear this news from knight to knight, wherefore all haste may he made to the royal abode this eve. ' “By my trouth. the Lady Alice lost from Stangland castle! A fair noblewoman in distress! I am huh to remain here one minute! Yonder comet!' Lady Helene, thou shalt tell her of thy news. Sir Kobert told unto her his dismal tidings, while she wept into her silken handkerchief. “Ah me, that one we all loveth hath so suddenly disappeared. To arms, my lord, don thy shield and brandish thy sword for my sake, who is the damsel’s friend.” “By my faith! That will I do. and bear thee to Stangland castle with me.” Meanwhile, the hungry knight ate strongly of the food placed before him, taking no part in the conversation. At length he arose, and excused himself, thus: “I am loth to leave thee, but duty calleth. I have yet three castles to visit: those of Sir Hutchins, Sir Brandenburg, and Sir Lonberg; and first not abide longer, lest I attainest not my mission before night falleth. Farewell, we will meet tonight at King Arthur’s Court. He kneeled before the fair Helene and anon bestrode his horse in haste to he gone. The stars came out one by one, a silver moon was just appearing over the north tower of Stangland castle, when Sir Boh rode forward through the gates all in haste to announce the coming of Sir Hutchins and the Lady Beryl, Sic Brandenburg and the Lady Hazel and Sir Lonberg and the Lady Elsa, all of whom had left their own to defend the favorite noble-woman of the king’s court. Sir Boh hadst scarcely ended his announcement and stepped to Lady Christensen’s side, when the throe ladies and knights entered the presence of his lordship. They kneeled before his throne; he bade them arise, and thus spake he: “Arise, my good people: hath thou vet eaten' The table awaits your coming. Behold, knights and ladies from over my kingdom are within tlr next court, and thou shalt join them when thou hast partaken of food.” I'ago Forty-three r As the party came unto the huge dining hall, King Arthur turned to a friend upon his right-hand and spake: ‘‘Sir Stanford. I wist not what to do; yonder cometh Sir Eric; a nobler knight has never fought for a ladies’ favor. Truly 1 trow, he deserves her hand. Shew me the way wherefore we may bring her back unto the eastle and 1 slialt give my permission to thy marriage, which 1 was loth to do lest thou lea vest my presence.'’ Thereupon, Sir Stanford grasped the king's hand, exclaiming: “By my faith! Never shall I leave the noble King's castle, but will dwell with my lady within its walls and serve Ilim until death. Sir Erie, in his heavy armour strode forward at this moment with heavy step and hollow eye. Great care creased his noble brow and forgetful, he failed to kneel unto his king, but brandishing his sword he cried out: “1 hath followed strange tracks unto a strange land and hath found a strange castle at the edge of a vast desert wherein are many strong towel’s, and near the gates of yonder eastle groweth huge weeds. Thou seest () King, 1 have obeyed thy command and returned to thee before striking the blow to save the maiden Alice. I wist not but that she hath been carried thence and dust abide within, waiting for some knight to free her. I wend thee is it not befitting that 1 shouldest be of service to one so fair? “Thou art truly a gallant knight and befitting unto thy tytlc; but my brave Erie, spake the king, “thou must take food and hold until my knights make ready to journey. Wilt not thou be disarrayed for rest ? Therewithal the young knight flushed darkly: “Diddcst thou think, () King, I shouldest cat or take rest while duty awaits. By my sword, nay! Of knights I will have none.” “Sir Eric, thou thinkest wrongly, it avails thee nothing to starve thyself. Thou hast a long journey, mayhap much combat;; presserve thy strength and go unto the table. Thou slialt not be laden with care of men; Sir Stanford slialt take command.” Thus did the noble Arthur prevail upon him and seeing that he ate strongly, called together the assembled knights outside the castle wall. One half of bis men gave he unto the care of Sir Stanford with Sir Erancis Sparks as his assistant, to ride forward with Sir Erie. He, himself, took command of the others that they might further seek for evidence of tlu lost lady. Anon, Sir Eric came forth from tin eastle walls and Sir Stanford, with his ladies' kerchief fluttering from his sleeve, took command of his charge, that they might follow the former's lead. All night they rode and before noon carneth unto a land of heat and Page Forty-four sand. Brfon them with high turrets arose a giant eastle surrounded by a greate moat. Under cover of the huge weeds growing about, the knights did hide until the noon-day sun should fall below the greate west battlement of the castle. Without ado and before In might Ik .silenced. Sir Eric rode forth from the covert and blew thrice upon his horn and anon, there came from within an answer; the gates of the eastle opened up and forthwith stepped a huge knight in armour mounted upon a greate black steed and bearing a heavy shield. II« accosted Sir Eric thus: “What wouldcst thou, stranger: wherefore is thy journey and from whence comest thou? ’ “I seek the Lady Alice from King Arthur’s court whom I see at yonder turret window. I seek for her return or 1 wouldcst give battle.” The strange knight’s brow darkened and he spake: “So be it: hut thou art come a long journey; enter and refresh thyself before thou fight with me, for I am known as Sir Robert McLean, the invin sihlc. 1 wouldcst not take unfair advantage of one who appeareth so unskilled and exhausted.” At this the heart of Sir Erie lea| ed in anger and straightway he blew for two of his men. Sir Robert Taylor and Sir Fat Makinen, to come forth. Likewise, did the strange knight call for his. Sir Robert Minor and Sir Evald Johnson, who prepared their lords for tin combat. Long and terrible was the battle but at length Erie smote down Sir Robert and he yielded unto him. Then did the knights of King Arthur reveal themselves, for from the eastle walls streamed forth Lord McLean’s knights. Here took place another battle longer and more fierce than the first, lasting far into the night. When finally Robert's men were driven from before the eastle entrance. Sir Stanford, who had borne himself right bravely, nor disgraced the kerchief upon his sleeve, lead his warriors to meat, Sir Eric hastened to the cell of Lady Alice and with two of her maidens, Gretolien Selunidt and Irene Smethurst, took her from her cell. 3 “Now,” said Arthur when all had returned to Stanglaud castle, “where is the maiden for whom I heard thou didst fight right bravely; shew me her. By my faith, is it not she coming yonder with my queen?” “Yes, tis she, and eometh also her sister. Lila, and the ladies Elsa, Jose phine Helene and Beryl. Too soon they must leave us with their lords.” “I declare to heaven my knights, thou hast acted right bravely; and thee Erie, hast befitted thyself as a knight of King Arthur’s Round Table.” E. O. C.
