He was i thinking about a girl he had just seen, I a pretty girl who had smiled- at him. 9, Many girls had smiled at Joe. With his six feet of exuberant young manhood and , his light curly hair, he was sufficient cause E3 for another glance from any member of l l the weaker sex, be she Mrs. J. Pierpont l V Ford or ,Sadie Katt who sold tickets at i , the Cinema Palace. N ot that Joe was averse to the charms 1 of the ladies. Far from it. To put it in i his own vernacular: 4'He got a kick outa them, and as the majority of his femi- 3 nine friends were ladies of the chorus, gf 7 his words were perhaps not ill-chosen. lil PAUL RHYHER The girl about whom he was thinking was tif ' not only pretty, but she had brains. A jiri very rare combination it is true, yet very obvious as one glance clearly proved. ll it She was dark, Joe remembered, and had very nice teeth, and she had smiled- ill smiled radiantly, nay more, divinely. Now, when such a prosaic being as a New it 5 Oregon cab-driver thinks about such things as these, one can very safely prophesy 51 lg immediate action. l 1 i 4 I i . v ilg 'z tl Joe Martin was a taxi-driver because he wanted to be. And he Wanted to be l because the sound of the working engine was music to his ears, the feel of the JT wheel in his hands was a joy, and the sensation of swiftly moving cords under him made a warm place in his heart. He was happy when he was tinkering with pg obstinate engines, and he dreamed engines, lived engines, they were his idols. l Now, for the first time in a great while, something else held iirst place in his heart. I This something was a girl. A mere girl 5 a pretty girl, it is true, but a girl never- theless. Joe didn't quite understand it. Girls were useful in their way, and ornamental, too, but they were not in a class with engines, throbbing, pulsing, im! powerful engines that kept the business of the world moving and the wheels of ,FE progress turning. Strange, very strange. ! Joe drove his car to the station, and turned it over to the night driver. Then , he walked towards his boarding house, his mind still full of the girl. I wonder who she can be? he said to himself. If I see her again, I'll I find out. Gee, I never thought a jane could moon-eye me like this. I At his rooming house, the boy ate his supper, then Went to his room Where he fished out some thumb-worn blue prints of gasoline engines which he spread out 2 ii and poured over, a sparkle in his eye and a half smile on his lips. He wasn't I. ij studying to better himself, he 'd have laughed at the idea. He was learning the 5, 24 lili Gfzgjr'-'srfg' fm'-X-A'L,T . ii.f'i if 1 .t -if 6. .9 anatomy of engines because he enjoyed doing so. It was a delight to work out their intricacies, fascinating to figure out new ways of using them , and thrilling to work out new wrinkles in their construction. Tonight, however, these things failed to hold J oe's attention. A pair of blue eyes were continually popping up before his mind's eye and a head of dark bobbed hair kept coming between his eyes and the blue print. Joe walked down town to indulge in his second hobby: a movie. A few minutes in the theater proved that not even the picture could compete with a pretty girl in a young man's mind. Joe did the only thing left to do, he went home to bed. A week later, Joe again saw the girl. She was walking down the street, and the boy speeded to the first parking space to await her arrival. After awhile she came by-but she didn 't smile when she saw Joe. She did something better, she dropped her handkerchief. Perhaps it was an accident, perhaps it was the subconscious mind , and then again she may have dropped it intentionally. At any rate it was done, and J oe 's duty-or opportunity was clear. He restored the tiny piece of cloth to its owner and received a smile as his reward. Then, as they were about to part, each stopped by common consent, for what on earth can sep- arate a boy and girl who wish to become acquainted? In a remarkably short space of time they knew each other 's name, also that they were going to meet again. Very immoral for such early confidcnces, probably, but, on the whole agreeable as either of the principals would undoubtedly testify. The girl was Crilotte Franklin 5 she was white, unmarried and twenty. She had just finished high school, and she knew Joe was a nice young fellow , a rather startling statement to make considering that she had known the nice young fellow for only half an hour. . . . and I know we're going to be great friends, said the girl. Goodbye Joe went back to his cab. He was sure of two things: that he now knew the most wonderful girl in the world Cpeculiar how many of these specimens we havej , and that he was going to do something that would make him worthy of being Crilotte's friend. He was perfectly sure of his first idea-about the girl- but his second was rather vague. Doing worthy things is a beautiful thought, out where were the worthy things to do? He knew automobiles from license plate to dashboard, but that was all. His other accomplishments were mediocre or not in demand. He thought of his home-made engine in which the pistons shot back by recoil thereby giving twice as much speed for the same amount of gas. It might not work in actual practice, and he was leery of patents anyway. Any- thing else he might undertake would cost money, a commodity with which he was not on very intimate terms. Joe forgot that topic in order to think of one more agreeable: a pair of bluer than blue eyes that were like morning glories on a misty day, a trim little body that you knew could dance forever without getting weary, and a soft voice that a husband could listen to forever without getting riled. Joe breathed a long, blissful breath, the kind a small boy breathes when taking the last bite of a cake, or a fat man takes when sitting down after a mile hike. Many evenings after that Joe devoted his time not to his engines but to Crilotte, another example of the superiority of flesh over mental. They motored, strolled and movied together, and had a specialist glanced at their faces on these occasions, he would undoubtedly have diagnosed the case as incurable. I wish I could ask you to marry me, Lottie, said Joe one evening, but as the condemned convict quaintly said when a friend offered him a cough drop, 'What's the use?' Why don't you ask me, Joe? I don it promise a thing, but you might be surprised. ' ' 25 aa ....... .---s...J I ' ' Tjj-.-1-ff. 1- W. .. A Z , M , Q :Rv X :E .nciuvryc ,wh Quai! ,Eddy ..,..,..t,,. , ., -..-n,....,.,w.,,-.- mv... . ,N ,. Joe grinned. You might accept me if I inquired concerning your sentiments on the ques- tion, and so I shan't do so until I get enough filthy lucre to keep both of us from living as cheaply as one. Oh, I'm not so sure, Joie boy, they make fun of this 'love in a cottage' theory, but I'd just as soon try it. 4'Let's wait awhile, Lottie, I'm sure something will turn up. Well, I must be going. I think I'll take my reward now so come here and . . . ' ' But never mind that, you see how things stood. One morning Joe read the headlines advertising the New Oregon auto race, the prize for the winner to be twenty thousand dollars, nobody barred who could drive ninety miles per hour in the tests. Joe's eyes gleamed as he thought of the iiying wheels. the great crowd, and the slim bodies of the roaring cars. Then he smiled ruefully, the races were not for him who had no money nor backing. If someone would finance him he 'd try out his engine, he knew it would work, but -oh, what was the use? That evening when he went to see Crilotte, she met him at the gate, her eyes bright and her manner eager. Oh, Joe. You're going to enter, aren't you? You're such a wonderful driver. I know you'll win. Isn't it wonderful J! ' Joe smiled slowly. The best driver in the world couldn't win with an inferior car, Lottie, and no one would finance me with a good one, not knowing anything about me. H The girl's face clouded. It's too bad, Joe. How much does a car cost? About fifteen times as much as I've got, and I 've got two hundred dollars. Not a chance, Lottie, not a chance. t'XVell, how about your engine, persisted the girl. HOouldn't you buy a cheap body and put your engine in it?l' Joe looked up suddenly. 'tPerhaps therels something in that. Let 's see. Could we do it? I could buy a second-hand car and procure parts for the weak points. Gee, Lottie, I be- lieve we can do it. HOf course we can. Oh, Joe, if we'd only win. Have you enough money? Ilve get a hundred dollars myself, and if you donlt take it, I'll shoot you on sight. Far into the night the boy and girl discussed their great project , its superior qualities and its weaknesses. Sometimes they doubted, again they despaired, but their determination was strong and their hopes ran high. ' The next day Joe hunted for a second-hand racer. After much searching, he found one that he thought might be resurrected. It was cheap-only a hundred dollars-but its lines were beautiful and its constitution strong. True, its engine was as useless as coal at the equator, and it was minus tires, tank, brakes and steering wheel, but, on the whole, Joe considered himself lucky. It would answer his purpose very nicely and he 'd still have enough money to put it in shape. The race was scheduled to start in a month, consequently, Joe was obliged to work every evening far into the night. He installed his precious engine, bought and attached tank, steering wheel, brakes and rear axle , ground valves, straight- ened wheels, and greased everything that looked suspicious. He painted, var- nished, waxed, bored, riveted, nailed and hammered with indomitable zeal and each morning at two as he crawled into his bed, dead tired, he felt that he had accomplished something towards the realization of his hopes. Sometimes Orilotte helped him. She donned overalls, tied a bandanna about her head, and dived into the work like the good little sport she was. She pumped 26 vlllll uid 3 ima. vllln up tires, painted, cleaned spark plugs and waded ankle-deep in oil, wearing a smile, always joking and never complaining. SF 3? if F351 9? 2 'Ks S3 56 :lk 5? Fate is relentless and inscrutable, too. We sometimes find it hard to believe that every cloud has a silver lining, or that all is for the best. The great race was scheduled to begin at nine a. m. and last until one p. m.-four hours of arduous driving. At seven a. m. Joe broke his arm. In putting the finishing touches on his racer he had fallen from the hood, and in striking the cement floor had doubled his arm beneath him. Poor J oe! Poor 'Crilottel All was in readiness for the contest to begin. Twenty cars had made the tests, among them J oe 's white racer. People from all over the country were in town, hotels were crowded, tents were pitched and thousands of automobiles, parked outside the city, bedded rabid face fans, willing to undergo any hardship to witness the sport of kings. At 11:00 a. m. twenty lithe racing cars rolled out on the track. There was Roy Kenton who won steadily. There was Jacques LeRoy, the 'tflying French- man, and yes, there was Barney Mason, known from coast to coast for his iron nerve. This would certainly be a real race with so many celebrities. Who could number 18 be? It says on the list, J oe Martin. What a little fellow he is. What you can see of him looks almost girlish. Look at that curly hair sticking out under the helmet-and that tiny mouth. Wonder who he can be? There goes number one! Two is getting her start. Oh, boy, he crossed the line at forty. Pretty good, two. Crouched in number 18 was Crilotte. Her hands shook, her heart beat fast and she wanted to cry. Joe hadnlt wanted her to go, but she had pleaded with him, scolded him and finally cajoled him into giving his consent. He told her how to shift gears, to hold the wheel, to sit properly and to take the curves to the best advantage. Could she do it? She was just a girl, and this wasn't a thing for a girl to be doing, but her heart was in it and she was brave. It was her turn to make a dash for the starting line. She received her signal, let out the clutch, and with swift acceleration flew towards the mark. She crossed it at fifty miles per hour, her hands clasped about the wheel, her heart beating fast. But no faster than the heart of a young man in the grandstand who, when he saw her cross the line, uttered a low groan and let his face fall in his arms. But not for long, the lean white streak now far down the track fascinated him. It was hard to imagine that Crilotte was at the wheel, was driving that roaring fiash of metal-gentle little Crilotte who was so modest and retiring. She was driving eighty-eight fiat now, and she was running fifth, but that meant nothing. NVould the car stand up under it? Would the engine work properly after that first gruelling hour? Could the girl endure four hours of tireless, nerve-racking driving? Look! already they had circled the bowl twice. None of the cars was yet running a hundred miles an hour. Yes, there was -Crilotte. VVas she frightened? Can't tell, because all you can see is her mouth which is drawn into a hard line, and the little firm jaws, already grimy and dusty. Again and again they circle the giant track. The roar of cut-outs and tires on boards is deafening. The sight of the racers, and the mighty mass of people is like nothing else. Look at those stands. There are fifty thousand people if there is one. Over there is a whole flock of camera men, and, yes, there 's a squadron of planes, but their motors cannot be heard for the roars of the speed- ing cars. How about Crilotte? Vilas she frightened? Frightened! She was scared stiff. Already her arms felt tired and numb, and the wind whistling by made her head ache. She knew she should go faster, the engine was running smoothly 27 ESF shun V rmmi 9 ima mm' ee lj l sy: 1 P 1 A l J, i i i yi ll 1 i . f A a 1 V .... - , Y-. 1Af,.- f-f 1 -'Y' l C f Dina.

She stepped harder on the 5 little plunger, the car 'fpicked up nobly, and she passed the fourth car at the il curve. She was doing 102 now. She was gaining a little courage, it was not so 'E bad after all. She pushed up to third place. , l ? For two hours the cars pounded the planks, always changing places. Crilotte J ' ll still held third place and she was crowding second. She was not afraid now, she , , smiled a little as she gave her car more speed. As they took the curve the second l car turned too quickly. Crilotte saw it hit the fence, saw it crumple up like a -V ,El telescope, saw the driver with hands on wheel and eyes ahead, in death as in life. ll 55 Crilotte wanted to swoon, wanted to hide her head, to scream, to do anything. E 1 J She awoke from a sort of dream. She had been driving but she had fallen back. l l if Now she was eighth and her nerve was gone. Better give up , Joe wouldn't blame l A ll l' her. No, she couldn't do that, she set her chin, raised her slumping body, pushed i .I her dirty little face forward and stepped on the gas. She was driving 105 flat 1 gf now. She passed seven, six and five in rapid succession. As she passed the scene 4 of tohe accideiit, slae saw tile iierft firm of the driver being put in the ever-waiting sg, , am ulance. nvo untari y s e oo ed away. V- A Q Another hour passed. Crilotte was third again, and her nerve wa.s, in a i l measure, restored. Her arms no longer pained her, and now her mind contained , hope of winning-not fear. The engine had not balked yet, but the tires were 1 3 1 w almost gone. 'Considering everything, her chances were good. ii In the stand was Joe, his arm in a sling, his face bright and feverish. He A l' had seen the accident, had seen Crilotte sl-ow up, and then crawl up to third , . place. He blessed her mentally, was there ever a better car or a braver girl? 1, 5 , Here was Crilotte around again. The car swerved sharply, a. rear tire had blown if , 3 1 ll out. Crglotte knew what gtg io. 1 She drove over to the stalls, and in ten seconds W 1 was on er way-now in t p ace. iw A There remained but fifteen minutes. Crilotte was fourth. As yet the ac- l' celerator had not touched the floor. She began to push it harder now. Her car f Y and the third one took the curve abreast of each other, and then raced, side by l. f H side, for a whole revolution. Then Crilotte forged ahead. Number two was di- S i3 rectly in front of her. It fell back as the girl gave her car more speed. Number i A il one was a little way ahead. Crilotte realized that she must have speed- Q T Q more speed-still more speed. Around and around they went with no perceptible g , il difference in the distance between them. -Crilotte was determined now. She 5 9 meant to win. She forgot her sex, her fears and dangers. She peered apprais- E ingly at her tires. They were good for the finish. Then she felt her foot touch Q V the floor. 1 S Ten minutes more. Only eight cars remained in the race. Crilotte was l labreast number one. Now she passed him. At the curve she fell back to avoid fi itting him. Five more minutes. SQ, The stands were in chaos. Never was a more exciting race seen.

Healy Shops, it is probable that you have noticed a bright-eyed salesgirl behind the sea of fluffy ribbons and sample goods on the main floor. There was a certain pleasing look about her that offset any attractiveness possessed by the various types of girls near her. One would have thought that her very life depended on making the best impression upon all of the patrons of D. J. Healy 's countless shops on the boulevard. Perhaps she was only thinking in percentages, but it was an undeiinable pleasure to be approached by her. She made you feel that you had given in proportion to what you had received. K if IK :Ki 'BF 1' 'lf FX' if if 3? It Was closing time on one of the busy days in the department store. As Ethel Pricer painstakingly covered her counter until the morrow many little occurrences of the day passed through her mind. She was thinking, in par- ticular, of a certain merry face that had been before her vision throughout the day. He had had a pleasing smile, a face that she could not forget as she handed him his package with the accustomed, Thank you, and, Will that be all? The frank grey eyes and boyish grin would remain long in her memory. The last bell had rung, warning late shoppers that they had bought enough for one day. The salesgirls were gossiping with each other of such and such a boy, and of course, the date connected with that important personage. Ethel wondered how they could think fast enough to catch everyone 's: ' ' Where are you going tonight? Another dance?' ' My, you must have made quite a hole in your pay envelope from last nightls gaietyf' You don 't say. '4Tell it again, part of the girls didn 't hear. Isn't he the cleverest ever? I'm Wild about the way he dances. 4'You tell 'emf' Goodnight girls, see you on the job to- morrow, sung out one, busily powdering her nose. Thus were the girls ex- changing snatches of conversation as they prepared to leave the scene of their day 's labors. Ethel liked her work, but as the door closed after her, she wondered to her- self. Would she always have to listen to that type of talk? What did it amount to, anyway? Was she classed as one of them? Just one of many, without in- dividuality or distinction. Her thoughts turned back to the letter she had re- ceived a few days previous. The letter had been from the Greenwood Industrial Offices in the same city in which Grace, her sister, was going to college. The manager of the firm, who was the father of Marjorie Howard, Grace's school chum, in exchanging frag- ments of conversation with his daughter, had heard her speak of Grace 's younger sister who was working in a department store in Chicago. Marjorie had told him of Grace 's sister having taken a preliminary business course while in school, 29 I I I I I. I eta K I 1 I . r I I I II . . I . 'II t b 5-5 f iiiid time Wiiiifi u immh Ilhif CHQ I, I I I I I I 3' and although she was now only a clerk, it was probable that she could till the I ,, position vacant. in his office. So Mr. Howard had written for her acceptance. I I III But Ethel had known even before finishing the reading of the letter, that she II I II was not fitted for the position. She might have taken it if she had had further , I I training in commercial work. Her first big opportunity and the thought of how I, I pleasant it would have been to be near her sister loomed up before her. Her I Q! sacrifice for her sisterls future career had cost her, her own, and dearly was she I It paying the price of the unlearned. She could see it now all too clearly. I JI Lost in her own thoughts, and paying little heed to the intervals between I-. 2 street car service, Ethel walked on slowly, reaching the corner just as the last Ig' 'iQ dim lights of her homeward-bound car disappeared in the fog. , You might have known that would happen, ejaculated Ethel, to herself I I impatiently. Just when I was in for a busy evening, too. Now I'll either have 3' to wait an unearthly long time for the next one, or else walk it. Well, here . t goes, she ended carelessly, 'fa little later won 't make a great deal of difference, i tat, I suppose. Big city life is always uncertainfl So she started to thread her way I- homeward thr-ough the crowded and darkening streets. ini The street light fiickered uncertainly as she rounded the corner of the block. xl I, Because of her own musing and partly because of the thickening fog, she failed I I I f to see a young man coming directly in her path. Before either had time to dodge, , It I Ethel felt the contact of his body against her. Looking up, she found herself I gazing into a pair of frank grey eyes enveloped in an immensely pleasing grin. , t 5 I She recognized him without a moment's hesitation. I I gt I There was an awkward silence for a brief moment. Neither spoke. Then: I I I I 'fPardon mc. but did I shake you up a bit? Very clumsy on my part, to be surc,', It I QI stammercd the boy, in confusion. If 'tNot at all. Mr.-- I 'ilIIr. Stanlcyf' he supplemented. And may I satisfy my curiosity to It I know yours, too.

That 's right, I jolly well remember now. 1 Didn't you ask me if that would ,II I Q be all, referring to the bit of ribbon I bought in your store for my mother? She J. , was too tired to go for it herself so sent her hlundering young son instead. To 1 I I tell you frankly, when I saw you, all mother 's instructions vanished completely il, I from my mind. I had no idea one could put his mind clear off the track of ribbon ,ii ti: It when he meets a person he would like to know, but doesn't. In Strange to say, Ethel was not displeased at this frankly flattering confes- II U sion from an unknown young man, but hastened to assure him that his business I-I transactions as well as his apologies were entirely commendable. I X, HMay I take you to your homefll' asked Joe Stanley of Ethel. 'fIt's just as I well you have a bodyguard. The next one that runs into you might weigh quite , I ' a bit more than I do and entirely demolish you. VVhich way, mademoiselle? . I Thus began the friendship of Ethel and her unknown knight. For a knight I he truly was in her little world. 'Had he not asked to take her home, inquired of ,EI IEI her work. her future ambitions? She would always remember the walk home. I V They had talked of many things. He had asked for her story and then had told I I f I his. She could hear herself now as she had told him hers. ' I It had all come back as clearly as if it had happened yesterday. She could ' ,W recall the night the two sisters had made their decision. The subject of discus- I, 'I sion had been the money their father had left them at his death a few years be- I' N, fore. This had meant the parting of the ways, each choosing her own life work, I II and each considering that she had made the wiser choice. From her earliest I. years, Ethel had been an independent person and even contact with her more , I :I gentle sister had not influenced her character. Grace, deeply absorbed in her It I school work had found little or no time to help, advise, and be a big sister to her .

Both had been silent for a moment, each one thinking of what the money meant to the other. Through Ethel 's mind had been running this thought. 'A She can use the entire amount to better advantage. Half of it wouldn't be enough to put her through c-ollege, but my share will enable her to have not only the de- sire of her heart, but a suitable preparation for the work she wishes to undertake. I delight in the perpetual noise, bustle, and excitement belonging to the business world, the world in which 1 can now take a place and earn a living. It would be the height of selfishness to deprive Grace of her opportunity. Grace's acquiescence had not been easy to gain to her suggestion and had not agreed at once. She had said: But, Ethel dear, I don 't want to rob you of your chance to better yourself in life. Remember what Dad always said: tGet your education now, and the pleasures involving your success will follow accord- ingly.' Perhaps you can 't see it now, but the only square thing to do is to divide the money fifty-fifty. ' ' But Ethel had won her point in the end. The girls had both gone to bed with a varied feeling: Grace, looking eagerly forward to college life, Ethel, with the fervor about the life she had always craved. After Ethel had told of her experiences, her interest had centered on J oels story. He told of his ambition to continue his education, but the death of his father had necessitated his leaving school and starting out for himself. He had been entirely alone in the world, except for his mother, who, as is the case with most mothers, had stood by him. Trusting to his perseverance and his whimsical humor which enables him to see the good in every situation, he had set his jaws firmly together and started from the bottom of the ladder. He now had a re- sponsible position in a law office and was continuing his studies at night school. It was at this point in his story that Joe had made the suggestion that changed the whole course of Ethel 's life. He had asked her if she would like to join his school, taking a secretarial course, while he would complete the further continuance of his present work. She had consented with ready enthusiasm. He had told her to be ready at seven sharp the following Monday night when he would call for her. How friendly had been his handclasp he had said goodbye! So they had parted. During the following week Ethel had chanced to run upon Joe several times during her noon hours, and each time they has exchanged friendly glances, al- though hurried ones. Business people don't have much time to linger during noon intervals, as those who have had experience in working may have found out. Punctuality is the slogan of the average employer. V It was evening of the following Monday. Ethel didn 't lose a great deal of time in getting home, after the close of a busy day at the store. She 'made the usual distance, despite interruptions in ear service, in a short space of time. She dressed with deft fingers, straightened the little flat to its accustomed neatness, glanced at the little mantle clock, and then pulling aside the curtains, drummed impatiently on the window pane. She had not been drumming long when the bang of a door and hurried feet running up the steps annonuced the arrival of Joe. As the night school was in the downtown district, the two boarded a passing car and after a ride through the heart of the business district, reached the Chicago School of Commerce. The night school was a busy little community in itself. As the two stepped into the room, the very atmosphere suggested accomplishment and the sustained effort of many human beings. The typewriters were clicking in unison, teachers were giving rapid dictation in shorthand, so that Ethel felt a trifle dazed and out of place. But not so Joe. He was master of the situation, now, at all times. 31 Just follow mef' he commanded, Hand Iill have you in your division in a jiffy. Don 't you think you are going to like it here ? HOh, I know I will after I get acquainted with the system of the depart- ment. But it bewilders me so! VVOn't I feel proud when I can take notes in shorthand at that rate of speed without having my pencil shake at every sign? replied Ethel. t'Donlt worry, little womanf' answered Joe. When you have really got- ten into the spirit of your work, you will have just as much assurance and be just as capable. She worked as she never had in her earlier school days. To make every minute count was her ambition, f-or she felt that Joe must never be ashamed of her. So deeply absorbed was she in the construction of a certain shorthand symbol, that she did not hear him as he came over to her desk and suppressed a chuckle at the blank stare on her face. HWhat do you want? Donlt you see I'm very busy? she asked. VVell, young lady, I didn 't think Iid ever have to tear you away from your work, but don 't you know that everyone has gone, and its after ten oielock? You must intend to spend the night here. That might be all right, but I'm afraid you'd Want to go home before morningf' said Joe, with mirth. VVhy, who would have thought the time could fly so rapidly? It doesnlt seem more than a minute since we 7ve been here. Must we really go now? I think it would be wiser. Really, I'm surprised at the way you 've taken to it. You know sometimes when people get the rhythm of learning out of their system for a few years, it is hard to settle down again. So you really like it, do you? 'f concluded Joe. The satisfied and grateful look which Ethel gave him assured Joe of the earnestness of her convictions, and both left the building feeling richer in under- standing each other as well as in material gain. Drop in and see me tomorrow if you happen to pass the store on your way to the officef' said Ethel. And with this parting word she disappeared in the house, leaving Joe to continue his way home in the short time that still remained before midnight. The t'osmop'olitan Life Insurance 'Company on Michigan boulevard was a busy hive of industry. The manager, Mr. T. A. Glendon, ruled with a master mind, to some he might appear hard and grasping, but those who really under- stood him knew that his only desire was to manage his office in accordance with the highest business principles. He gave a quick glance around the room and seeing one chair vacant, where usually a quiet employee worked, he approached the floor manager, Mr. Dennen, and inquired regarding her absence. Oh, her work wasn't up to our standards, so I told her we no longer needed her. New we 'll have to confer with the Commerce school to get another. They have the reputation throughout the business world for turning out efficient grad- uates. I'll take a trip up to the school tonight and try to make arrangements with the presidentf, ended Mr. Dennen. The classes in the Fhicago School of Commerce were engaged in the routine of night school. Fragments of conversation were going on in the room. Hadn't they all heard the announcement that one of Chieago's big firms was sending a representative to their school tonight to single out one of them for the position? So they were all thinking the same thought-if only I would be the one. But thus success comes to those who wait and who justly deserve it. So Ethel was to be rewarded for her rapid success. Joe had been the starter in ere- ating her enthusiasm, but she had carried out the project to be a. reality. In the 32 E. C llll slml Q llll 'Ill e intervals that elapsed between the consultation between the president and Mr. Dennen, the representative of the iirm, Ethel was doing some real thinking. She remembered that she had had to refuse her first chance because of incapability. But that was not the case now. Sometimes she had doubted, sometimes despaired of her climbing the ladder to a greater success, but she knew now that she was standing on firm ground. The big door leading from the president 's quarters opened. Great was the surprise of all in the room, but greater that of Ethel, when the president came toward her. Then Ethel did the most natural thing in the world for a happy girl who had achieved her goal, by thanking both her kind benefactors with a sincerity in her voice that was genuine. A It is difficult to say who was the more pleased-Ethel, or Joe, but at any rate I feel safe in saying that they were probably the happiest ones in the room-not excluding the president himself. 'lk 'lf SF 4? Sk 1? ik Ili Ill: Pl? SF As Ethel took up her new duties in a bigger and broader field than that of the D. J. Healy Shops, she had ever in mind the fortunes of the one who had helped her in her success. A vacancy occurred later in the city department, and Joe, through the influence of Ethel, obtained the position as city manager. Both have attained the desired degree of accomplishment in the business world and both appreciate the value of a friendship which may ripen into an even dearer relation. 5 E 5 E E B 5 B 33 , L g mln fi umm!

However, inside Alice Bradley's cozy apartment, the cheery fire and merry voices of half a dozen girls lent brightness to the atmosphere, counteracting the dreary out of doors. Naturally, the girls were enjoying themselves. They had already spoiled two batches of fudge, dropped the spoon in, unnumbered times, and forgotten the sugar- circumstances which always add to the enjoyment of such an occasion. Alice 's darling up-to-the-minute apartment and her darling up-to-the-minute self made such a wonderful combination that that young lady was almost never without a bevy of admiring and friendly school mates swarming about her. She was always the ring-leader, an exceptionally pretty girl, with much executive ability, care- free, and wealthly, but a trifle too frivolous and light-minded. This was her first year at Parkhurst University, the second semester half way through but up to date, Alice had shown no signs of exerting any effort to work except when in charge of a sufficiently important social event. The conversation varied, as conversations will, gradually turning toward Home.l' Alice, I simply can 't imagine how you could bear to leave that lovely home of yours, even for college. VVhy, girls, it 'S the most ideal place, on one of the lake-shore drives, 'way out of the city,-cool, breezy-I just can't express it. And her grandfather! The most charming old gentleman you can imagine. This from Peggy Sherman, who had spent a few days with Alice at Christ- mas time. Peg, I can 't see why my house made such a dent on you. You've made that speech at least once every day since Christmas. Of course, I know it 's nice, but then, Ilve lived there all my life, so it isn't a novelty. Grandpa and I have always been the best of pals. I couldn't get along without him or the house either. They seem to go together. But heavens, you girls all live in just as pretty homes, I'm sure. Don't bore 'em so, Peggy dear. But, my dear, everyone 's home isn't in such a delightful setting, nor have we all got granddaddies like yours. What a spoiled child he must make you! t'Ycs, Alice looked dreamily into the fire, he is a wonder, and I guess I'm a spoiled child, too. You see, girls, we've lived there, just we two, for so long that-well, he always tries to give me everything I want, although he knows better and says so. Sometimes, he says I have the makings of a genius, and that I must toe the mark more, but goodness, I don't think he ever means it, not enough, anyway, to force me against my will. Really, though, I don't know what happened to him, lately. His letters have been so different, sort of ques- tioning. He always used to take me so for granted. I guess it ts because he's growing old, don 't you? I never let little things like that worry me, though. So it was that Alice, returning late that night. from a dance, was too shocked to utter a word when she opened the telegram which lay awaiting her. It was from the family attorney and friend, short and to the point: Your grandfather very ill. Please come at once. J. Albright. The first thing she did was wake Jean Sumners, her room-mate. Jean, I-I-Oh, Jean, Itve got to go home. They've sent for me. Oh, please help me! Jean, capable of managing almost any situation, failed utterly in this one, but finally, after many futile arrangements had been made and broken, Alice 37 E A.

VVhat she would find there, she knew not. She reviewed again and again all that she knew of the situation. What could be the matter with her grandfather? He had never been ill, that she could remember, except, perhaps, if those little dizzy spells which he sometimes had could be called sicknesses. She had never given his health a thought.. He seemed, as she had expressd it, that afternoon, to be a part of the surroundings, and just as they were almost permanent structures, so was he to her. Her life had been happy, carefree, and luxurious. She had gone to Europe, the summer before, with a party of friends, utterly disregarding his expressed wish that she go with him. And yet, it had never occurred to her that she was unappreciative of all that he had done for her. From her childhood days, she had loved him with all her heart, considering him not merely a guardian, but a delightful companion as well. She made good connections in the city, waiting only a few minutes for the north-bound train which bore her to her suburban home. Much to her relief, she found Will Albright, one of her stanchest friends, waiting for her with his roadster. Alice, I'm awfully glad you'r'e here. I was sure you would be, after getting Dad's telegram. You're not the sort that would pass a thing like that by. Been riding a long time, haven 't you?'l Oh, Will, I'm so tired and fidgety. I came as soon as I could. It was ever so good of you to come down and meet me, this morning. Thank you a thousand times. Tell me-how things are-please, XVill.'7 The tall young man looked at the girl beside him, wondering what would become of her. He knew her as few did, and thought of how little trouble she had ever encountered. But tell her of the circumstances he must and did. He explained in detail her grandfather's sudden collapse, due to heart trouble, the doctor had said, and how he was now unconscious. little hope being held for his recovery. Such were the affairs as Alice found them. PX: fl? 56 its IJ? St: 6? SC: :Xe 75 as Alice sat in Mr. Albright 's office, pale, nervous, and evidently greatly agi- tated. The past few days had been hard upon her, and she was quite unprepared for the sudden news which the lawyer had given her. Do you mean. Mr. Albright, that I won't even have a home unless I go through college? Why, I can't believe it! Grandpa must have been hopelessly insane. ttHe was of a perfectly sound mind when he made the will, Alice, although it is rather unusual, replied her legal adviser, calmly. You see, my dear, he wished you to be well educated and successful, and frankly speaking, he had to look out for your disposition. It was the best thing he could do. VVhen you have received your college diploma with honors, Alice, all this property becomes yours. If you fail to graduate, it goes elsewhere. Is it all plain to you, now? Alice sighed. Why, I suppose it is, Mr. Albright, but I couldn't think for a minute of carrying out those instructions. And yet, I do love the place so much! It's all the home I have. 'tWhat had you intended to do if you didn't finish college, Alice? Every girl, rich or poor, makes some plans for the future. Why, I-I guess, replied Alice, a little startled by the directness of his question, HI guess I just intended to get married. Isn't that enough? Why, sir, I haven't even carried all my subjects, let alone received any honors. What did Grandpa take me for?'7 He took you for what you are, a smart, intelligent, capable girl, only with your energies bent in the wrong direction. Alice, he's trying to make a real 38 ,,.........,,..,r,.., ........r......- E :gp me ig.,---ci tmwa ii E 9 E 5 Ir . it l ife it , B H nm, ,,,, ml , Hr, -YL. , gf -ff1,... . iw, .,,, W ,,,,,,,.. mul ll: sqm til H Ili HIQI ' ' Ill woman of you, and I believe he is going to succeed, of course, that is, with your helpf, But, Mr. Albright, four years of that steady life will kill me, honestly. Don't you see, I'm not used to it? Ever since I can remember, I have roamed around like a gypsy. I do so love a change. Why, that's how I meet so many people and learn so much. Just stop and think a minute, child. Do such wandering paths lead you anywhere? I'm ready to wager that if you stick it for four years and do your best, you'll find that your eyes have been opened and you'll be, oh, so much happier. VVill you promise ine, an old friend, that you 'll try it? Itis just like a big game, after all. It has its hard sides, but, then, it 's so much fun, too, and so much is to be gained. Please give me your word that you ill do your best. 7' I thank you for your kind interest in me, Mr. Albright, and I guess I'll try to carry out Grandpais wishes, but, she laughed nervously, you know they always say that it 's hard to teach an old dog new tricks. Back to the old regime she went, and yet it wasn't old, for a new purpose changed its aspect entirely. Alice found that many of her former friends fell away from her, still, as she observed. the ones whom she loved best remained. Not that she threw aside her naturally sunny self, and became a grind. That would have been impossible as well as undesirable. However, she did abandon her expensive apartment and take a room in the Girl 's Residence Hall, where the temptation for night larks was necessarily lessened. One afternoon, toward the end of the year, when she and Peg were ostensibly doing some library work together, her ch um mentioned young Bob Sherman, with whom Alice had previously been quite friendly. Bob was two years Peg's senior, a hero of the gridiron, and quite pleasing to the feminine eye. Yet, strange to say, Alice had noticeably changed of late in her attitude toward him. 'fWhat's the matter, Alie? Peg inquired casually. Has Bob committed some inexcusable blunder? You haven 't been over-cordial to him, to say the least, so you can 't blame me for sort of wondering what 's up. Alice merely smiled at this assault. Please, Peg, remember that your brother doesn't covet the association of one particularly addicted to study. as he doubtless thinks I am. I donit want him to feel that I demand his attentions. Would you? Alie, dear, I think you have Bob down all wrong. You think he 's just a cake eater. I'll see if I can't straighten this outg that is, if you'll trust me. Please have it out with him, at least. Alice did have it out. The outcome was a triiie different from her ex- pectations. Bob was, at first, incredulous. Finally, he burst out. Alice, I don't believe you give me credit for ever having a serious thought, do you? I'm afraid I don 't, she admitted. 'tYou'vc never impressed me that way. Actions speak louder than words, Bob. All right, Alice. Bob was cool and deliberate. I can have my doubts, too. If you can live it out here for four years, with no more excitement than you've had lately, if you can come through on top, why, youire the girl for me. It 's a test of our friendship, Alie, and I know you ill steer through, OK. College life is always brief enough, at its best or worst, and, although Alice met many obstacles, which she tried bravely to overcome, the time sped by unaccountably fast. The way was hard, at first, but, in the end, she was suc- cessful, due to her untiring determination and zeal Hbent in the right direction. as the old lawyer had said. On a beautiful afternoon in June, after commencement exercises, the day which marked the first stepping stone to success in so many lives, vast throngs were walking about in the green campus of Parkhurst. In the center of one 39 BBL Winn! Y I V i l interesting group could be seen a girl, about Whom clustered a number of smiling boys and girls, or, perhaps they should be called young men and Women. Frag- ments of their conversation drifted up in the cool June air. Oh, Alice, aren't you happy? Just think, you've accomplished so much, and now, that beautiful home and everything is really yours. I knew you'd see it through l Alice looked about her, smiling radiantly. y Oh, I am happy-so happy! I had thought that this would mark the end of a perfect day, or I should say days, but now I see -and she looked smilingly h up at Bob, who stood near by- it's just the beginning. : E E ig :E 5 E 5 E E i l g y 40 l A ' ' ' A Y li All null mm nm Ill! iHlQ The Qtase uf the iiiih On the map Halsted Street looks precisely like Michigan Boulevard or Eighty-seventh, or Juneway Terrace. It is simply a long black line, running almost the entire length of Chicago in an undeviating course. But in all the world there can be no street quite like Halsted. It starts far out on the north side as Clarendon Avenue. As it comes south, and crosses Broadway, its name changes with its character. The great new glistening family hotels of the Wilson Avenue district are replaced by small two-story buildings and second-rate boarding houses, dingy and forbidding. Hurdling North Avenue, it becomes a gushing canyon between great factories and warehouses. The river bridged, its path lies through Haymarket Square, and of a sudden dashes into the very heart of the Ghetto, where the street be- comes at once its Broadway and Fifth Avenue. Wherever Chicago is known, the Ghetto is known. Here are gathered all the races of southern Europe-in a melting pot which boils too slowly or not at all. The red brick shells of habitation, with the dirty, ragged children playing in the dirtier streets, and the wan, white faces that line the windows, form a pic- ture that is not easily forgotten. The Maxwell Street market can never be forgotten. Seen in the dim light of early evening one can hardly believe that a scant mile away lies all the throb- bing activity of the loop. The ramshackle buildings that line its four-block course enclose a scene that has no parallel. The Jewish merchants have stacked the sidewalks and two sides of the street with every conceivable article from chickens to fine suits, which sell at six dollars and are guaranteed to be a per- fect fit-leaving a narrow ten-foot aisle down the center. The filth is exceeded only by the din made by the liawkers and the teeming crowds th at line its length. On the corner there is a herb salesman who eulogizes while his assistants entertain. An Indian, with tattered overcoat hiding his greasy shirt, stands in solemn attendance, the wind rustling the tousled strands of coal-black hair that escape his shapeless hat, remnant of a fallen race. There are densely bearded Russians, voluble Italians, immovable Chinese, and the mongrel scum to be found in every great city. One Sunday night in late March, a clean-cut youth buttoned his overcoat tighter about him, and plowed steadily through the crowds that seemed not to notice the steady drizzle. Somehow he looked different from the others. His shoulders were flung squarely back, and had his face not been hidden by the folds of his coat, one would have marked the prominent chin, the square jaws, and the grey eyes, which alternated between iiashing and sparkling. The Kid was different from the rest. He had been a Ghetto waif. Left on the doorstep of the Stevick domicile on Newbery Street when scarcely able to betoken his presence, Tommy had grown up as one of the innumerable juvenile members of the Stevick family. He attended school when unable to evade the truant officers, and did fairly well. However, he one day informed the teacher as to his unbiased opinion of himself in language no less strong than it was vol- uble, and was promptly expelled. Then, sixteen years of age, he had departed school, the Stevick abode, and Chicago at one and the same time. He bummed his way to Peoria, but not finding that city to his liking had journeyed to St. Louis, and finally back to the Ghetto. No one even missed him, let alone looked for him. Back in -Chicago, two days without food convinced him that enforced dieting is conducive neither to health nor happiness. He tried to find employment, but someone was always on hand just a few minutes before he arrived. Finally there presented itself the single alternative. The first time his efforts availed sixty 41 ....9L,,Li.,, .... .mi illf' T lllpifi Tide?

Then he continued his trade, finding it just a little easier each time. Sometimes he netted as 'much as a hundred dollars from his midnight excursions. At other times he risked life and liberty for a few cents. On one notable occasion he had formed a partnership. His companions had blundered, and had almost sent him to a steady job at Joliet. Thereafter his had been a lone hand. Because of his youth and solitary habits, gangland had nicknamed Tommy Stevick UThe Kid. The title had stuck. As Jimmy turned onto Halsted, he felt the chill drizzle even more keenly, and noted that a dense fog was gathering. It was a miserable night, he reflected as he boarded a northbound car. Still, it was ideal for his purpose. As the car rumbled northward, he went over his plans for the last time. At 1632 Clybourn there resided one Herr Stinnes, who was anything but Chinese, and who conducted a small bakery. Tommy 's tip had it that Stinnes had hoarded five thousand dollars in cash, which, afraid to trust to a bank, he had hidden in the house, occupying the second floor over his establishment. His friend had divulged its hiding place on the agreement that the proceeds should be split. Easy money. The Kid reflected, gazing at the sparkling pavement out- side. Almost too good to be true. At Division, he rebuttoned his overcoat and left the car. The rain had stopped, and the fog was lifting rapidly. The street lights left a glaring re- flection upon the wet pavement. The corner clock betokened the hour as eleven o'e1ock. There was much time to spare, thought Tommy as he walked aimlessly west and crossed the silent murky river. He paused a moment and for some time regarded the moving lights in the torpid stream below. It fascinated him, and he lingered long in silent contemplation. Shortly after one olclock a silent, heavily-muffled figure stood upright and slowly and cautiously opened the back door of the tiny building at the Clybourn address. In another minute, the figure was creeping up the precipitous rear stairway. As he gained the top, he listened intently for a moment, then flashed on the light he had been holding in his hand. He then directed it down the hall, after making sure that all the doors lead- ing onto it were closed, and that there was only the noise of steady breathing. At the far end was a door, standing slightly ajar. That would be the door. As a street car droned by, he tiptoed down the hallway, and opened the door. He waited a moment, then again flashed on the light. On the west wall was a large portrait of Wooclrow Wilson. That should be the picture-VVHAT WAS THAT? All was still for several. minutes. The light off, the invader crouched tense and motionless in the darkness, eyes riveted upon the door, automatic in hand, his ears straining in vain to catch a repetition of the sound which had sent his heart into his throat. Only a squeak it had been, but- Of a sudden there came a rush of feet in the hall, and the door was flung open. There was shooting and shouting, and the tinkle of broken glass. As The Kid hurtled through the shattered glass, his gun arm limp and useless, but still clutching his smoking revolver, he was vaguely conscious of the fact that the foremost of the blueeoated figures who had burst into the room had fallen. In another instant he had released his hold on the swinging sign and had dropped to the pavement below. The fog had now entirely cleared, and objects were sharply distinct in the deserted street. Behind there came the sound of running feet and the slamming of a door. Tommy took a fleeting glance behind, and felt a bullet skim the side of his -face. He had perhapsa half-block lead on his pursuers. Finally his eyes were rewarded with the opening they sought, and in another second he was running for dear life down the darkened alley. Once he 42 fr ,. ... 1 ui F- xr. 1 'W fi. . ft W., ..... .,..ar...,...,r........--.....,...-..,,-..-. sf.. ., , it N A, m--- s AL P : ,4,q,,,,,M W mm :ntl .mN..,,J . I I L. slipped and fell headlong in the mud, but he was up immediately. He heard a splashing behind, and knew that his only chance was to lose his foes in the darkness of the alley. Again he slipped, but this time his head came in contact with something hard and unyielding. He groped in his pocket for the light, found it, and threw it before him. It disclosed a high, smooth brick wall. On either side it was the same. Then came realization. He was trapped, with not a chance for escape. Before he was able to turn around, he felt a ripping, shooting pain in his head, then giddiness and blackness. SP S? if 1? 6? SF IF IK' Si: if 'KK No one was greatly interested in the trial of The Kid. The current divorce trial had introduced testimony at once unusual and engrossing, and there was much spicy news from the training camps. And so no 0116 was greatly interested when The Kid was sentenced to hang. The Kid listened to the verdict in silence, and was silent thereafter, shunning the advances of clergy and newspaper re- porters with equal unconcern. And so two months passed swiftly, with appeals unnoticed, and with reprieve and pardon refused. On the eve of his execution, The Kid had a visitor, an old friend. The visitor attempted to evade the watchfulness of the guard for a second and whispered the bare information that an attempt would be made at a delivery that night, and that it would be dangerous. That was all there was time for. 'lk PKI S6 P73 PX: its 48 SF ik 12 'Xl That night Tommy gazed wistfully out of the single window of his cell onto the deserted street outside. He glanced at his watch. It lacked but a few min- utes of midnight. A rueful smile crossed his face. State and Randolph would be crowded with the late theatre-goers. Michigan would be a moving sea of light. Halsted would be the same old Halsted, street of romance, highway of life. Then he remembered the hammering and sawing in the court which had con- tinued throughout the day. The shadows outside seemed to take the form of a grim noose. He shuddered, and attempted to turn his thought to other things. About one o'clock, his eye was attracted to a large, grey car which drew to a grinding stop across the street. For a while, nothing stirred, and then one of the doors opened noiselessly, and a. single passenger stepped upon the sidewalk. Tommy noticed that he carried something shiny in his hand. The man turned to the wall, carefully lit a cigar or cigarette, and turned around again. Only the red point of the latter was visible. Then came action. The figure whirled and released the shiny article that he had held in his hand. At the first motion The Kid had instinctively leaped away from the side of the cell and had threw himself to the floor, just as there came a deafening roar, and a terrifying crash. Without knowing what he did, the prisoner threw off the blackness and leaped through the gaping hole in the cell wall. By some miracle he landed onhis feet, and headed across the street towards the alley. The car had disappeared. The alley was gained, with no sign of pursuit from the dumbfounded guards. He came to one at right angles to it, and headed east. The Kid had not gone more than a hundred feet however before he was compelled to draw up at Dear- born. He gazed cautiously forth upon its deserted length. Nothing was in sight except a southbound street ca r, a half-block north. He decided to let it pass. No sooner had it thundered by than he was out again, running across the street for dear life. Suddenly there came a terrifying scream, and the grinding of the street car brakes. The passengers of the northbound car gathered in a little crowd about the bloody trucks, then turned away, sick at heart. For The Kid was done. 43 ' Eur rj, gginggfi :mail 9 Iima. in f nan: Qfter Bzahing QI Gale uf Etna Kitties It was the best ot times, it was the worst of times.

He was wondering. It had been many, many years since he and Dante had made their first pilgrimage thru Hades. NVould there still be the same lakes of fire and pools of boiling pitch teeming with thc souls of wicked mortals? Would the regime of the place be changed? The region would surely be much larger. Many more sinful souls had been sent down since their last visit. Vergil was looking forward to their trip, and yet the memories of his former The train came jerkily to a halt, bringing him out of his reverie. He shook Dante, who awoke and looked out of the window. 'fBut where are the fires? VVe could see the glare of them for miles away I was wondering about that, myself. Probably the furnaces aren't going full force. It's near Christmas and people are so good this time of year that they They got off the train and stood looking about them, A taxi driver took Well, well,', cried Vergil delightedly, Hthis is what I call service.

Taking a bill from his pocket, Vergil turned to the taxi-driver, who shook his head sadly and turned Vergil turned to Dante with a puzzled look on his face.

We have found it necessary to make some radical changes in the general plan of things here. For example, your taxi driver was old Charon who used to ferry souls across the Styx. In olden times, whenever we caught him overcharging, we threw him into a kettle of scalding pitch for a day or two. Now we won't let him accept money at all. He'd much prefer the pitch. It used to be that people took our methods of punishment as a matter of course. They came down here and didn't expect anything but fire and brim- stone. And then pretty soon all that changed. We carelessly let some reformers slip in. They scattered literature against corporal punishment and worked up so much feeling that we had to change our policy. The public simply wouldn't stand for it any more. We weren't getting the business. Why, one of those re- formers, an old fossil who made his living up above writing books of crossword puzzles actually threatened to set up a place in competition to Hades if we didn 't watch our step. But,', he shook his head sadly, according to the original purpose of this place it's a failure. NVhy, we have a waiting list all the time now. People know we won 't hurt 'em and they want to come here. They think it 'll be more exciting than the other place. This jazz age certainly has livened up our business. Does a modern twentieth century youth want to spend eternity playing a harp? No. :Give me some excitement. I'd be bored to death' they say. Well, gentlemen, I'll have you shown to your rooms and in the morning I'll take you around. I know you 're puzzled when I say morning. Itls true day and night used to be the same here. But the health officer got after us, said we'd have to get some sunshine in here, that darkness was unhealthy and bred bacteria. VVell, good-night, gentlemen. H '-K1 4? 'Ks 2 if: ill' 56 'Ki BK' 3? 16 216 Our new policy, said Satan, dropping two lumps of sugar in his coffee cup, His vastly different from the old. Vile used to throw all sinful souls into the lake of fire. But now our motto is: Suit the sentence to the sin. It was poor business, I guess, to put a murderer and a man who told a white lie into the same furnace. Well, gentlemen, if you 've finished your oatmeal, let us be oft' ln They walked down the principal street of Hades, Dante and Vergil eagerly pointing out to each other one change after another and Satan explaining the sights to them. 4' There on your right, he said, is the man who forgot his wife 's birthday. Ha, Ha, he can't forget it now. See, his punishment is writing that date over and over again in the sand, only to have it immediately erased by a gust of wind. , NVhat is this poor wretch doing with the radio set? 'tOh, yes, that 's the fan who was always turning the dials in the middle of the program much to the sorrow of his family. NVell, he's getting his punish- ment. He can only get one station with that set. HThat man trying to ride the tricycle up a greased board and balance a baseball on his head at the same time is the brute who played with his kid 's toys all day Christmas. He wishes now hetd never seen a toy. They walked on in silence for a few moments and then stopped to look at a poor wretch who was groaning with pain. 'tThat's the heartless bridegroom who laughed at his bride 's biscuits. He has to eat 'em now. Ha, Ha. A little further down the street they came to an iron cage filled with strangely behaving people. All wore looks of intense sadness, and yet all were laughing. Some were guifawing loudly, others chuckled, some giggled and some merely smiled. Those are the poor fools who sat with a look of boredom on their faces and refused to smile when the teacher cracked a joke in class. We give 47 i E ,- i E a 1 -g l gf 'mm -W 'Hm m gm: -Jam Aftggtigiglj them laughing germs and they have to laugh. They canlt help it. You don't think it 's much of a punishment, eh? NVell, if you'd been laughing for seven or eight hundred years and couldn't stop, you wouldn,t consider it great funf' fl? it W SF :Ki its its PX: S? Sk S? 5? It certainly was hospitable of Satan to lend us his own private plane to go home in, said Dante as they whizzed thru the air. VVell, well, would one think that a place could change so much in a mere thousand years? Shall we go again in another thousand? Well, I don 't know, answered Vergil. You,ll have to admit that what we write about this trip won lt scare people very badly and encourage them to be good. In another thousand years theylll probably depose Satan and turn the place into a summer resort or do away with it altogether. Enirri CLEM, ,25. Q Ziaamlet at Qlfxam Ulimz CWith Apologies to VV. Shakespearej To cram or not to cram-that's the question: VVhether it is wiser this late to stuff The mind and cranium with hasty knowledge, Or to gather the daily thoughts at each class And have a better report card. To study-to learn- And thus in each class make a telling grade Each and every day when called upon to recite 'Till excused from all exams I am- 'tis a position Greatly to be envied! To cram-to stuff- To cram and fail to pass, aye, there is the tragedyg For even if I slave on their reviews, The thought that each a special set of questions has Must make me shudder, 'tis but a chance That some random answer may hit the mark While all the rest will get a much deserved zero, And with one day ls dumbness I may accumulate The scorn of Miss Cash, the chilling glance of Miss Jackson, The ire of Miss Manchester, the withering smile of Miss Collins, The lashing tongue of Mr. Schimmel, and the zeros of Miss Inman, And even feel the hardness of the mourner's bench, IVhen all their kindness and good grades on me will be bestowed By the mere getting of their daily assignments. CHARLEs Homiowav, '25, 48 I . im mm lllll ill alll e l an: 493.12 tu My English :Butehunk Your pages long I strive to fill, My senses reel against my will, Long hours of play I put aside, And let your pages be my guide. E To you my precious thought is given, i E And with the common place I've striven. ! With gems from Byron, Shelley, Keats, Mingled with Wordsworth 's choicest meats, Your pages long I strive to fill. In my own words I must express E ' The thoughts that cause me time and stress. i E Each evening must I fill a page- E I fear I'll soon be bent with age. To Tennyson my thoughts must stray To bear with him in moods so gay, And Browning, too, his place must hold With verses comic, brave and bold. And still I strive that book to fill. And when in future years I see In mind 's eye studies brought to me, I wonder if that notebook lore XVill make its presence known once more, If from the past in hideous thought, I'll see its lengthened pages brought, Or whether then in ignorance blest My dreams will let that nightmare rest, And never more my peace molest. LAVINA OVERHOLT, '25, E E E E Cfhening - As evening descends upon a troubled world E Each heart, conscious of a new found strength, ' Just as some distant lake, when enclosed By the masterful fingers of night Receives a certain majesty, celestial, And gives itself to higher, nobler thought.

In C. ll' Ill' mi f-' - is 1 s mm 5 A I D I The Eluninrs Bad beginnings make good endings. So runs the ancient proverb, ably proved by the Junior Class of 1925. For in the fall, barely fifty presented them- selves on Election Day. However, after several stirring addresses by leaders of the party, a sufficient number of students having sixteen or more credits and not candidates for graduation, were rounded up at the polls, or, in other words, the Auditorium, to cast their votes. The results of this election were as follows: President, Robert Price, Vice-President, Sam Bodman, and Secretary-Treasurer, Yontz Bonnett. CThe office was later filled by Hannah Ochs.J Our first social affair was a Hallowe 'en Dance, at which we entertained the Seniors. There was a big crowd, and everybody came masked. We had wit- nessed a thrilling football victory in the afternoon, so imagine the pep! Every- one agreed that the social year started off' with a bang. The Seniors, in return, gave a number of matinee dances, and we, not to be outdone, gave several, also. Our next evening dance was a Purple and Gold Hop which was, in every way, a success. Although this affair had been postponed several times, the en- thusiasm was not lessened noticeably on account of the delay. At the beginning of the football season, a great many Juniors responded to the call for men for action. Those who were in battle many times are Thomas Steidley and Sam Bodman. These same boys helped show B. I-I. S. off in basketball also. Heafer and James Riley and Lewis Probasco represent the Juniors in the swimming world. We also have members in other organizations including the Dramatic Club, Band, Orchestra. One of our members, Elizabeth Austin, was awarded the third prize in the Merwin Cup Contest of this year. We 'have proved what we said at first and have successfully ended the year. The Juniors of '25 are ready to be the Seniors of '26, ELIZABETH AUSTIN, HANNAH Ooris. 84 , E .. r 'W 45 T 'T Lg-lf lulglll ri fi rm nur mm ag. 43 4. 86 V S7 50121100030 C Ill Illll :iii t mm ill! E E Smpbnmnres May We have the honor of presenting to you the Sophomore Class of '25? Thank you! In the first place, we are considered the most unimportant class in High School. VVe are too bright to be classed as Hlittle green freshies, but, on the other hand, we are not quite old enough to be termed illustrious Juniors or Seniors. However, this does not worry us. Our turn is coming. And when it does, our ambition is to prove to all that we have simply been lying low, and that the class of '27 is the most brilliant, the most noted class that Bloomington High School has seen in years. It seems now that we have related what we in- tend to do and be, it would be most fitting for us to descend from our air castles in order to let you know that we are very much alive down here on this earth. What are we accomplishing now? We have many interested and in- fluential members in the Latin Club, Amateur Burroughs Club, Girl Reserve Club, Hi-Y Club, and others. A large percent of the Sophs are music lovers. This is shown by the interest they have in the Band, Orchestra, Chorus and Glee Clubs. As to school spirit, the majority of us were ready to back the team by at- tending football and basketball games. We not only went, but We tried to add real pep and school spirit to the games by cheering for the team whether it won or lost. A consideration of these points will readily demonstrate to you the superior qualities of the Sophomore Class. Let us draw the curtain!

'4 ,gag .f r ' A. f new SCI' 'iheehmen A I E , freshman - Everyone is young once in his life and possibly ignorant. Time is the cure and knowledge is sure to come sooner or later. Genius often buds in the Spring of life. The Freshman Class of 1925 is certainly no exception to this. Many of our boys have gone out for the various activities, although none has gained any place on the teams. In music we are represented in every department, not excepting the newly-formed Glee -Clubs. We have active members in the Hi-Y Club and the Girl Reserves. Not only in special organizations have we tried to prove our loyalty to Bloomington High School, but also in our scholarship in which we have endeavored to maintain a high standard. We have also been true to B. H. S. by attending the games and backing the boys clad in suits of those beautiful colors, Purple and Gold. While We are only Freshmen, we have three more years to grow, and who would dare to predict a future for such a promising group of students? PAULINE EGAN, '28.

SJ. 192421925 The season 1924-1925 in athletics at B. H. S., could well be termed successful. NVe barred no one, and in all branches of sport, played thc hardest schedule that has ever been attempted by Bloomington High teams. In football, we were fortunate to have seven letter men back as the nucleus of this year's team, namely: Vaptain Murray, Captain-elect Bodman, Scott, Taylor, Bolman, Green, and Rhea. VVe had better than an even break in wins, and defeated some of the strongest teams in the state. By far the outstanding game of the year was with NVaite High School of Toledo, Ohio, the national Hprepw champions. Although defeated by the slim margin of three points on account of the much heavier team of our opponents, it is noteworthy that we scored more points against them than all the rest of XVaiteis opponents, combined. The B. H. S. backtield, composed of Murray, Scott, Taylor and Bodman, was considered one of the best balanced in the state, and, when functioning, was hard to stop. The line developed into a powerful forward wall, and it took a strong team to make a Hholew in it any place, while they tore opponents' lines into shreds. Scott, who was captain first semester, Anderson, the second, Rhea, Murray. Baldwin, and Bolman were available basketball letter men at the beginning of the season. but ineligibility took three of these at the beginning of the second se- mester, making things appear gloomy. The development of Bodman was nothing short of phenomenal and lid- wards, the Stanford 'speed boy, soon demonstrated his merit. Ralph Bonney became eligible at the beginning of the second semester and played such a stellar game, that his team mates elected him captain for next year. Probably the greatest victory of the season was over the highly touted Champaign five who placed second in the state finals. and who boast the services of MeAlister, a player chosen on the First All-Star in the state tournament and one of the best visiting forwards ever seen in action on the local floor. The Vhampaign team led over three-fourths of the game. when Anderson came through with three beautiful field goals, to win. The Streator game was another thriller and was the best attended of any of the games played in our gym this year. Four letter men will be back for next year 's team and with new material coming on, B. H. S. should keep her place on the basketball map. Track also enjoyed a good season, with the B. H. S. thinly-clads placing in every meet that they attended. The relay teams gained considerable recognition, when they competed in the big meet at the lfniversity of XViseonsin. The swimming team at B. H. S. also deserves recognition for having met the team from Danville High in our pool and defeating them. But, unfortunately for the Bloomington swimmers, one of the competers was ineligible, causing the meet to be forfeited to the Danville team. The faculty of B. H. S. also presented a basketball team this year, and they played several games, including two each with the faculties of Canton and Spring- field High Schools. After all is said and done, athletics is a. vital part of school life, and the friendly competition with the schools of other towns goes far to instill the spirit of true sportsmanship in students and players alike. Every school is proud of the men who win the coveted letter, which is a symbol given by the school to show its appreciation for the work done by the athlete in representing the school. The athlete should feel honored to be al- lowed to compete for the school, and the school in turn should feel honored by 1 00 i FSEQEQ so g ggmp um: Sh: Mi calm II H :ml QB' i' i' ' v'e'i'vv ' ' o o' fi fi' E, lfl-l B '3 ':' l' 5 the men who represent her in athletic contests. An excess of either of these is l detrimental, and We feel that, in our school, it is almost a fifty-fifty proposition. ll Why should We not feel justly proud that such a condition exists? The last few years athletics has been a paying proposition at Bloomington l High School. It is a deplorable fact that B. H. S. is about the only school in the state of comparative size which has no athletic field of its own. This fact has been i editorially treated and is not only a need but a necessity. With athletics paying 5 the bill, a suitable field could be purchased so that Bloomington High, usually H Q a leader, will not have to yield to some more enterprising school which has long l ago seen that every good high school should own its field. i ' ll l l f .

This was followed by a place-kick, by the heretofore unstoppable Klarr, which gave them a 10-0 lead at the half. Then B. H. S. put across two touchdowns by straight, smashing football. To make it safe, Green booted a pretty field goal. B. H. S. 35-WAITE 38 Schimmel's Golden Indians attacked the camp of the National High School champions, unheralded. Not being able to gain through the heavy Wait.e line, we took the ball over by that unstoppable passing combination of Taylor to Murray, who played the best game of his career. Wa.ite came back and by hard, vicious football, led at the half 26-14. The last half, we outscored Vllaite 21-12, but lacked three points to overcome the lead the Ohioans gained the second quar- ter. Bodman intercepted a Waite pass and ran fifty yards for the last score of the game. Green kicked every goal after touchdown. Five of the seven NVaite attempts were blocked by the charging B. H.

' ' First, I want to tell you a little story I heard. Age 17, weight 141. Bob, our diminutive captain, has been one of the chief reasons for our splendid showing on the gridiron the past two years. He is one of the best high school pass receivers in the country, and can also pass well and punt, when needed. Besides, he- holds the ball for kickoE and for all place-kicks. In the open field, he is a hard man to down. Bob's best game of the year was against Waite at Toledo, where he snatched pass after pass, out of the air. The fight, shown by the whole team in some of the hardest games, was in- stilled by this dynamic leader. Two stripes. CAPTAIN'ELECT HBABYH BODMAN. Fullback. H Come on, fellows, let's get in and fight.'i Age 16, weight 168. Sam is considered by many as one of the greatest players ever to don a Purple and Gold uniform. VVhenever a few yards were needed, the ball was given to Sam and he generally made his distance. He is also a hard tackler and blocker, a whale of a pnntcr, and is adept at both hurling and receiving passes. Vlfith another year to play, H Sam' ' should be a triple-threat star of the first rank, as well as an inspiring leader. All the luck in the world to you, 'fSam! Two stripes. . JUNE HPLUGH SCOTT, Left Halfback. VVe can win this game, fellows, if we get in and fight. Age 19, weight 163. June found himself in the latter part of the season and became a. great open field runner, and by his twisting and squirming was an exceedingly tough man to down. Four stripes. ROY HIIIRAM77 TAYLOR, Right Halfback. Fight like devils in there. Age 19, weight 160. Roy's right arm was the beginning of many a touchdown for the Golden Indians, this year. Roy was always feared by his opponents, because of his deadly passing. He went OH tackle like a demon, possessing a drive which made him hard to down, without a substantial gain. Three stripes. JOHN Dim BOLMAN, Right Tackle. Dare 'em and then get 'em. Age 17, weight 178. John was one of the hardest tacklers on the team, and was always in the thick of the fray. 'Not possessing natural football ability, he won his place by constantly trying and by good, hard work. John had the honor of playing more minutes of actual playing time than any' member of the team. This is his last year, having spent his first two years at Jacksonville High. Two stripes. FRED HFRITZH RHEA, Left Tackle. 'fThat's figl1tin', in there. Age 17, weight 160. Fritz would undoubtedly have been chosen for All-State honors, had it not been for the ' ' charley horse' ' which kept him from delivering his best in some of the big games of the year. ' ' Fritz' ' ' 'mussed up many a. play, before it reached the scrimmage line. This tackle will 'be missed next year. Two stripes. VIRGLL VIRG GREEN, Left Guard. Come on, gang, let 's fight. Age 18, weight 167. Virg was one of the fastest linemen in the state. He was a sure tackler, a good offensive man, and possessed an educated toe, par excellence. He was placed on the All-Central Illinois team as guard, being the only player in the Twin Cities, to gain such recognition. Two stripes. EARL ANDY ANIJERSON, Left End. These guys are no better than we ar-ef' Age 17, weight 150. Andy won his spurs in football, playing end this year. He developed into a fast end for his first year Out, and few men could get around him. Unfortunately, his first year of football is also his last for the Purple and Gold. One stripe. RAYMOND BAK BAXTER, Right End. We can't let these chumps beat us. Age 18, weight 142. After an inauspicious beginning, Rely developed into a fine end and gave a good account of himself in several of the toughest games on the schedule. Bax was fast and was also a neat receiver of forward passes coming his way. One stripe. I VVALTON URUBBISH' ' RUEBUSH, Center. Are those passes coming back all rightf' ' Age 15, weight 155. Ruebush is the only Sophomore on the team, and a great deal of credit is due him for the remarkable showing he made in his first year of competition. He developed, under good coaching, to be an accurate passer from the center position, and also held his own on de- fense. Great things are expected from this boy, in the next two years. One stripe. TOM ' 4 TOM STEIDLEY, Right Guard. You hit him high and I'll hit him low. ' ' Age 17, weight 146. An overwhelming desire to play and constant striving won Tom his place on the team. Tom broke through the line many a time and smeared plays before they reached the line of scrimmage. One side of the line should be strong next year with this boy in it. O11e stripe. 105 a .- .

June was, without doubt, one of the greatest prep running guards in the game. In all the tournaments, in which he was entered, he was almost always chosen by officials for the first All-Star team. Scott was well known in all the basketball centers around for his prowess on the hardwood, and it will probably be a long time before another the caliber of Scott steps on the local iioor. EARL ANDERSON, Captain Csecond semesterj. Andy was a born scrapper, and when he came on the floor, he t'mixed with the best of them. Earl generally 'L came throughf' with his share of the points, and was also a very capable leader. Anderson will be missed next year, because, besides playing a good floor game, he kept his head, and it took a good man to out-guess him. RALPH BONNY, Captain-elect. c'Bunny came in with a dash, at the be- ginning of the second semester. By his clever dribbling, he eluded many a good guard and ran under the basket for a Hsleeperfl Ralph is always in the game, and, with the improvement that is bound to come, he should make a splendid leader, besides coming through for his share of the points. FRED RHEA. 'tFritz was the big boy who took care of the pivot position on this year 's team. He was held down in only one game this year and was the main point producer on the offense. SAM BODMAN. At the first of the year Sam set a pace which he kept during the whole season, and from what several opposing forwards have said, it must have been a fast one. He was a wizard at Msnakingi' the ball off of the back- board, and getting rid of it before anyone got to him. FRANK EDXVARDS. Hap was the speed boy Cof the teamj who played such a fine game against Streator. NVith this year's experience behind him, Frank should make them all step next year. JOHN BOLMAN. John was another one that didn't get out till the start of the second semester, but when he did, he 'tmixed it every minute that he was in the game. ROBERT BIURRAY. Bob was all over the floor at once, and when he was in the game, things always became interesting. He was sorely missed, when the eighth semester ruling took him at the end of the first semester. ARTHUR J ONES. Red is a boy from whom we are looking for great things next year. Art always gave all he had, and should make anyone step to keep him off the team. 109 .- -- il ll' 5. ll S ,. il l E El P ii l E E A '- -M--awe--------K , il, ia g- Tl.. W. .

A new interest was revived in track at Bloomington High last year and a good turnout of fellows toiled each night at NVilder Field striving to gain a place on the team. Several letter men were available to Coach Hastings who, when combined with the new material, presented a team especially strong in the relays. The meets participated in last year were mainly relay carnivals where points do not count so that no numerical score of any of the meets can be given, except that we won fourth place in the Millikin Inter-scholastic Track and Field Meet and three points at the Illinois U. Meet. XVith this start we are looking forward to the time when B. H. S. will be just as formidable on the cinder-path as on the gridiron or basketball floor, and we have reason to believe that this time is not far distant. A Trask This Bear Track started out this year with an even greater reception than was ac- corded it last year. Hoobler, Rhea, Anderson, Baxter and NVhite were the avail- able letter men and several new men of promise have also been out for practice. Several good meets have been booked for this year's racing card including the Illinois VVesleyan Interscholastic and the one at the University of Illinois. All the backers of B. H. S. are looking forward to the opening meets and hope that this year 's team is as good as ever represented the Purple and Gold. 110 W U... .'a. EIW get uni T me Track jllllen CAPTAIN JUNE SCOTT. Scott was the mainstay of the team and had the honor last year of being presented with his fourth letter in track. June 's record for last year was: Millikin, first in 4-10, second with mile relay, Havana, second with two-mile relay, third with mile relayg Pontiac, second in 440, Gridley, first with two-mile relay, second with mile relay, first with distance medley, Wisconsin U., third with distance medley and fourth with two-mile relay. Fourth letter. EARL ANDERSON. Andy was the iron maui' of the squad as the follow- ing imposing record indicates: first in mile and half-mile at Pontiac, third in mile and second in mile medley relay at Millikin, fifth in mile at Illinois U., third with mile relay and second with two-mile relay at Havanag first with two- mile relay, first with medley relay and second with mile relay at Gridleyg third with distance medley and fourth with two-mile relay at Wisconsin U. Second letter. ' ROBERT MURRAY. Bob took care of most of the jumping and the follow- ing shows something of his prowess: second in broad jump and third in 220-yard hurdles at Pontiacg first with medley relay, third in broad jump at Gridleyg second in broad jump at Millikin, second in broad jump at Havana. Second letter. EDSON WHITE. Besides running in the relays which won him his letter, VVhite made some creditable demonstrations in the 220-yard dash. VVhite was on the relay team at Gridley which won first in the mile medley. Second letter. FRED RHEA. Fritz's weight and strength stood him in good favor with the discus with which he made some good marks. He also was a fast man in the dashes and hurdles as his record shows: first in discus throw and second in 220-yard hurdles at Pontiac, second in mile relay and second in 220-yard hurdles at Gridley, third with milerelay at Havana. First letter. RAYMOND BAXTER. Developing from a mediocre runner to one of the best, is the record of Baxter. His record is very formidable: second in mile at Pontiac 5 second in mile at Millikin, fourth in mile relay at Illinois U. g first with two-mile relay at Gridleyg second with two-mile relay at Havanag fourth with two-mile relay at NVisconsin. First letter. ALLAN HOOBLER. This bundle of nerve ran the prettiest race of his career in the distance medley relay when he came from behind to grab third place at VVisconsin U. The rest of his record follows: second in 880-yard run at Pontiac, first with two-mile relay at Gridley, second with two-mile relay at Havana, second with two-mile relay at Millikin. Second letter. ROY TAYLOR. Taylor was another one of Coach Hastings star relay men and he presents this record for the year: first with two-mile relay and second with mile relay at Gridleyg third with distance medley at Wisconsin U.g sec- ond with mile relay at Havana, second with mile relay at Decatur. Second letter. The following men stayed out the entire season and though not winning a letter gained valuable experience so that they may be heard from this year in track: Virgil Green, Joe Green, NValdman, Matthews, Costigan, Bonny, Bur- witz, Edwards. 111 -if L l 9 2 5 ltagf.-A-A-11Qi.1g.1-m f1.. -wgigffiiiie. 1. e .

Attend the lesson that the muse shall bring Suspend your spoons and listen while we sing. The club is composed of girls taking the course in Domestic Science and girls who have completed the course who meet for social activities as well as further instruction along domestic lines. The meetings are held the second Friday of the month and each meeting is marked by some musical feature or interesting talk. The talks are on art, beauty, dress, decoration and other subjects dear to the hearts of girls. Following the entertainment refreshments are always served in the class rooms. These refresh- ments are prepared by the various classes the day of the meeting, thus combining instructive lessons with the recreations of the club. Oftentimes the club has as its guests members of the Art League or of the Domestic Art classes and is in turn entertained by them. The main purpose of the club and the course is to instruct girls in the proper ways of preparing wholesome foods in order to be better wives and mothers and establish a stronger and healthier posterity. Domestic Science, however, is not merely cooking. Wholesome and unwholesome foods are learned and the. proper nourishment for a Working man and a small child differentiated. Serving, planning of meals and correct manners are all a part of the training. It is the custom of the club to present something each year to the school. Last year two valuable additions were made to the set of Fostoria iridescent glass- ware. These were a dozen nut dishes and a dozen ice cups. The club emblem is a small rolling pin which does not symbolize a pro- ficiency in the art of aggressive warfare, which is so often attributed to it, but a proficiency in the art of preparing digestible foods. 121, ' El! ullll A vmmi u a umm B :Qi GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Top Ilozri Mary NYall, Ruth Hall, Dorothy Durnlen, Marian Lancaster, Mafleleine Anmlerson, J ulia.

XVe hope that at 'fl ee delegates will represent us. Among our accomplishments this year, we have forty- least thr e nine m mbers and justly deserve the title 'fthe forty- niner's, because we have learned to enjoy real American health. There have been ten meetings and two parties, one for our new members and one a Valentine Party. Every other Thursday there is a swim for G.A.A.'s in our B. Il. S. pool. Ii 1 the fall we sold refreshments at three of the foot- ball games. Then we've had two hikes and games of volley ball. baseball and basketball.

It Will, we are sure, be seen at a glance, and without argument, that the department recognizing the combined efforts of both boys and girls is superior for obvious reasons-the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third. s ,V Look herein, therefore, for masculine wit and Wisdom, feminine charm and ,I cleverness and a total of profound erudition.

Scansion shows its membership to be both masculine and femi- nine and made up of students taking sophomore, junior, or senior Latin. Its meetings are held with Hdativei' regularity with programs which are demon- strative of the abilities of the members in various lines of entertainment. The objective of the club is to stimulate greater interest in the classics and in the customs of the ancient Romans. The principal parts of the activities of the first semester were a weiner roast and our initiation. The Weiner roast was held at Forest Park at which time the officers were elected. Everyone present had a delightful time. The annual initiation was held November 8 for the purpose of introducing the imperfect neophytes to that Chamber of Horrors wherein dwell such mon- sters as subjunctives, Udeponent verbs, and the fifth declensionf' They passed thru the weird and mystic rites with passive stoicism, having proved themselves worthy to become dignified members of the toga-clad race. After much indirect discourse at meetings and some candy sales, club pins were selected and purchased for the first time in the history of the club. The superlative event of the year, the Roman dinner, was a great suc- cess. Roman dishes, prepared as the Romans prepared them, were served. After the dinner some of the members being possessive of much latent dramatic ability dramatized an interesting play in Latin. EDITH CLEM, Scriptor. 129 E Hg.-. - hi-ii' I r . .

I C 1 lm: mm tml Q III! , IIIL.. illl Qburt Story Qliluh - We are sevenli'-William Wordsworth The celebrated Short Story Club, long established in B.H.S., has, at this time, a membership of but four girls, two boys, and Miss Inman! Nevertheless, although handicapped by this scarcity, the club has carried on its work as usual and accomplished its customary ends. The old motto t'Quality if not quantity is exemplified here, for we make up for our shortage in member- ship with an unusual combination of brains, which, after all, is the most essen- tial part of any organization. We have had many very interesting meetings and parties this year, but perhaps none has been quite so exciting as the picnic which the S.S.C. of 1923-24 enjoyed in the spring of '24, after the Aegis had gone to press. The affair was held at the farm of one of the members, a few miles out of the city. All went well until time to return home, when a sudden storm came up. The cars started out bravely, skidding violently and breaking all speed laws when they reached the pavement-that is, all but one reached town. The Stude- baker driven by Paul R-hymer and bearing Miss Inman and three others be- came hopelessly stuck before it had gone very far. All efforts to release the Wheels being futile, the passengers found lodging for the night at the nearest farm house, which happened to be the home of friends. Needless to add, they reached town safely, next morning. Even if our predecessors did set us such a high standard to reach, our year has been anything but uneventful. The home of some one of the members was often times opened to us on Thursday evening, but if this was unavailable, we found that Room 115 made a delightful clubroom. Twice, we were enter- tained most royally at John Langham's home, we enjoyed tireside meetings at Bernadine Agle's and Elizabeth Austin 's, and a lovely birthday supper of waffles at Judith Wetzel's. This last named affair was held in honor of three members whose birthdays were in February. The supper was followed by a theater party, at which we were the guests of Miss Inman. The club undertook, this year, to write a long play, of three acts, which, it is hoped, will sometime be presented in this city. Editorials were placed on the Bulletin Board for the benefit of the students, and four articles and a poem were Written for the Hi-Y Club. Of course, the crowning achievement of the year was the writing of the stories for the Merwin Cup contest, which was held as usual, even though there were only six competitors. The three judges, this year, were Miss Napier, Dean of Women at Illinois Wesleyan University, Miss Abraham, of the Public Library, and Rev. J. A. Seacord, of St. Mathews Episcopal Church. The first prize, the Merwin. Cup, was awarded to Paul Rhymer, the second prize. con- sisting of five dollars, offered by the club, went to Elizabeth Bodine, and the story of Elizabeth Austin received honorable mention. We have done our best to uphold the sacred traditions of the club, and, knowing that to the S.S.C. no organization is equal, we sincerely hope that many will turn out for the try-out, next fall.

Not only has the membership increased from twenty to fifty-four, but the type of music played by this group of students has also improved. The music now being played is equal to and even above the standard of the National High School Orchestra Asso- ciation, an association the requirements of which are very high. The Orchestra has played on many occasions, for example, at the recep- tions given by the Parent Teacher Association, at the two plays given by the Dramatic Club, and in assemblies. The program for the year includes playing before the Central Division of the Illinois State Teachers' Association, for the senior play, and in the May Festival on which occasion last year our orchestra Won special commendation from musical authorities of the state. We are also to play on two entirely new occasions this year, which are accompanying the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs in their operetta. and entering the State High School Orchestra contest to be held at Springfield, May 8. ' The Orchestra might well be called the Bloomington High School Sym- phony Orchestra for we now have all the instruments that are to be found in a symphony orchestra. 133 E A e - It - I IIC lllrll umm lln Ill! mn 3 E oll!H,!e.lvgu,UgQ3 'iff T -1 f' .if mf' I W 'milk .S c Z,'!ii g 'l X N n3'GKk1 The Clfbnrus All things must have a beginning, and so it was that the idea of having a chorus originated in the mind of Miss Mabelle Glenn, an idea which culminated in the present organization under the leadership of Miss Lucile Ross. The chorus has made an unusually fine record, not only in the number of its members, but also in the character and the quality of the work done. The first year was directed towards the production of The Rose Maiden, by Frederick Cowan, which we gave in Bloomington's first National, Music Festival, as a crowning event of a successful year. This festival was sponsored by the local Amateur Musical Club, and took place in the Coliseum during the first week of May, 1923. Henry Lahee's The Building of the Ship was the subject matter for the second yearys work 'terminating at the summer of 1924. This cantata was given in the second National Music Festival under the auspices of the local Lion 's Club. At this time students took a very creditable part. The present year has been devoted to a number of choruses which will be given in the Music Festival. With the choral program the High School Band will join to make it a gala performance. There is a charm that comes from co-operation. Working together and blending experiences have combined to bring true satisfaction. Music is the finest of the fine arts in that it exemplifies our emotions, our joys, our sorrows, our cares. Great enjoyment comes from real choral work, which combines the finest art with the great spirit of the ensemble. During the year that the members of the chorus have been working together, they have learned much of the beauty of music, and of its powers in expressing the entire gamut of human emotion. Every person in this organization feels that, small as it is, this little group is doing no mean part in unifying the senti- ment of the community through the medium of music. 135 -!lI' rv, IUII Hlillllll HEL lHDl 1-I AMATEUR BURROUGHS CLUB Top Row: Doris Batterton, Ruth Ahlenius, Edward Ahlenius, Mary Allen, Marcella Beyer, James Parker. .

As it happens, they all belong to the species sapiens of the genus Homo. This, in turn, is a member of the family Hominidae, which be- longs to the order of Primates. This order descends from the class Mammalia in the phylum Vertebrata of Subkingdom II, all of which are members of the Ani- mal Kingdom. The Biology Club gave a party on October 10th. About thirty prospective members attended dressed as kids Of this thirty, ten became members dur- ing Weird and mystic rites at the Y. W. C. A. on November 29th. The first activity of the year was a field trip on September 19th. It was almost too late to see many birds and flowers but the trip proved most en- joyable. During the first semester the biology classes entertained the club with a picnic at Camp Lantz. ' On February 7th a delightful Valentine Party was held at the home of Mary Allen. Many other interesting events are planned for the year. The pro- gram meetings will be held in the form of out-of-door hikes instead of the usual talks and discussions. The regular meetings are held the first and third Tues- days of the month, the first of which are business meetings. The annual biology class picnic at Funk 's Grove will be sponsored by the Club members. The purpose of the Amateur Burroughs Club is to promote a deeper interest in the native flora and fauna and to cultivate an appreciation of Wild life in its natural environment. - EDWARD HEISTER, VIRGINIA BKICNUTT. 137 a t t.

This success has been achieved by the members of the Art League in both Work and play. The members of the Art League have made posters for the band concert, have taken part in a health poster contest of the United States and in various other events of the school. Two of the members of the Art League received honorable mention in the health poster contest of the United States and had their posters published in the late issue of the School Arts Magazine. Among the numerous social activities of the year were several trips to the library, to study different exhibits, brought here by the Art Association of Bloomington. On these occasions Miss Smith, Supervisor of Art, gave very in- structive talks. At the beginning of the year a picnic was held at Miller Park, soon followed by a trip up town to study the windows of the different business houses of Bloomington, decorated for the Fall Style Show. Among the most important events was a lecture by Dudley Craft Watson, who spoke before the Art League and several of the societies of Bloomington High School to Whom the Art League had extended an invitation. Mr. NVatson's highly appreciated talk was on Interior Decoration. The closing event of the year will be a studio tea, to which the parents and the friends of the members of the Art League are to be invited. The Work done thru the entire year will be exhibited. 141 L.......-.......... ax ,EIL , A cull mil 9 'mn umm was , , , .WN ..-,,.,...W-.. .,,,...l,,m.m. 3 if PJ Q., ,LLM 'rs rt: M.. it ii it F r zfig :wg :W .,, all! it. im. -tw-. iw.

For the first time in the history of the High School the Band has been Organized and governed by a constitution. NVe feel that the Success of the Band rests largely upon the fact that we are organized as we are. The Band has played for many outside functions. The occasions were at The Rotary Club and at the State Fair at Springfield, where the Band won second place. Joliet won, first and Springfield third. We made one other out- of'-town trip and that was to Deer Creek, where we played for a non-partisan political meeting. Early in the fall we put on a HLobby Concert at the Y. M. C. A. We played for all of our home football games and for the Wesleyan Home Coming. We played for the February meeting of the High School Parent Teachers Association and for the first animal Boys' Jubilee. Together with the Grade School Band, we put on a concert which was very successful in spite of the Sleet storm. At this concert we had for a soloist Mr. Robert Bruce, a full- blooded Indian, who is a trick cornetist. His feats upon the cornet were both surprising and pleasing to the audiences and to the bands. The Band has three important engagements in the near future. The first is the State High School Band Contest to be held in Champaign on April 24. At this contest we hope to make a name for both the High School and for the Band. The second engagement is at the Central lllinois High School Contest in which all the departments of a high school may compete. This contest is to be held at Springfield. Last but not least is a trip to the International Convention of the Rotary Club, in Cleveland, Ohio. VVe are to go as the guests of the Bloomington Rotary -Club. ' We Owe a great deal to our able and efficient director, Mr. Edwin M. Gould. If it were not for his unceasing effort the Bloomington High-School Band would not be what it is today. 145 ,SIL 7-C sill C sigma sms' g vm: img gii DRAMATIC CLUB Top row: Artluu- Ifliif, Leslie Mattlie-W, Clyde MeMea11s, Virgil Martin.

H-.- EEE p E mmf :p pjpfgmixj !QVf p nga: pp .-.Mosul Maps' Bepartment For the first time in its history, the Aegis this year has a separate depart- ment for the reports and pictures of the boys' organizations of the school. It was a wise move, and it is to be hoped that this section will continue and that it Will expand in future years. Some cities provide separate high schools for the sexes. What a bore must those be which are attended exclusively by the girls! The boys are the main- spring in every high school activity. They compose the teams which represent the school on the athletic field, boast the speakers, and compose the larger part of almost every organization, not to mention the entertainment they furnish in physics class. Bloomington High is fortunate in having three organizations whose mem- berships are void of girls-the Roosevelt Debating Society, the Hi-Y Club, and the Boys' Glee Club-which represent three widely divergent fields. Oldest in point of years is the Roosevelt Debating Society, one of the fore- most high school societies of its kind in the state. The Hi-Y Club, fostered jointly by high school and Y. M. C. A. enterprise, is second in age, while the Boys' Glee Club is the baby of the group, having yet to celebrate its first birth- day. All are doing a great Work, and the value to the school cannot be over- estimated. The Roosevelt Debating Society numbers forty-six members, the Hi-Y Club, twenty-four, and the Glee Club, fifteen. One boy is a member of all three, while a score are enrolled in two of them. And so, with the value of the training and the contact offered uppermost in mind, these pages are dedicated to the boys' organizations of Bloomington High School.

Under the leadership of Mr. Kurtz the club is doing a real work in the training of its members in public speaking. The club got under way on October 3rd when a large class responded to the tryout notice. The initiation ceremony was held a short time later, consisting of a very impressive ritual, followed by a social hour. Some thirty new members were taken in. Every Monday evening, there is a debate, or a general discussion in which the members take part. Each meeting closes with a short but instructive talk by Mr. Kurtz, in which he points out the merits or demerits of the speeches of the evening. The highlight in the club year is the XV. B. Read Debate, which is held the latter part of May. The three prizes are offered by W. B. Read, of this city. XVhile the contest is not limited to members of the Debating Society, the entrants are usually members of that organization. Last year, the prizes were won as follows: First prize, of twelve dollars, Virgil Martin. Second prize, of five dollars, Alan Sycle. Third prize, of three dollars, Elmer Sensenbaugh. The officers of the club were elected as follows: O H FIRST SEMESTER SECOND SEMESTER . . 5 KENNETH HANEY, President THEODORE FAGERBURG, President JOHN ALEXANDER, Vice President VERNON WOIZESKI, Vice President CHARLES STEPHENSON, CHARLES STEPHENSON, Secretary-Ti'easurer Secretary-Treasurer 1 ui, . .,,.,. -1,1--.-..1.'.., ..... v..-.sl E E E rl 9251 ' lun H mm 15.39, nnnfg E-umm g 15- First Tow: Verimu Xlhizvsl III-Y CLUB LIST oi' Ml-lximllzs Top row Ur-ff To ri-qlftj : Gvorgm- Mvuins, XYillis lirown, Jainm-s Rilvv, Rollo 't XY'll l 1 1 lllilllj Hzwlzln Polltfv, William AXllli'llll1S, Nzlfluui Rl1Sl'lllJlllfll, l'lug1'ue Paxrtlow, Puul Rllymer. 1vl1'lll'fI row: Roln-rf Suttlvs, ,lov firm-11, Rulum-T Pricv. llnrolll llolmzm, Hamlll lXIvc'l10rl0, Lyle xvllfiilllllll, Rziymoncl .li2lXt0I', Billy G1'iH'iu.

E l Ibigljsf fllllull Clean Speech Clean Athletics Clean Living Clean Scholarship Probably no high school organization exerts a greater influence on its mem- bers than the Hi-Y Club. It would be hard to find a livelier bunch of good Christian fellows. Each of the Thursday meetings is marked by a talk by some prominent man interested in the progress and work of the club. Among those heard during the year were Rev. Durden, Mr. Miller, and Secretary Seamans of the local Y. M. C. A. Much of the club 's success is due to the splendid work and leader- ship of Mr. Condon, faculty representative. Besides the regular meetings, there were joint meetings with the Normal and U. High Hi-Y clubs, and the Upper Class Girl Reserves of Bloomington High. This last meeting was held at the clubrooms of the latter in the Y. W. C. A. This last was one of the most successful gatherings of the year, the splendid pro- gram of speeches being followed by a pleasant social hour. Songs were led by George Means. , The boys served as ushers at the recent open-house at the Y. M. C. A., and a number were delegates to the Older Boy 's 'Conference held at Elgin. Following the initiation of a large class of candidates early in the year, the members enjoyed a weiner roast at Camp Johnson, and a number of other social events are looked forward to with pleasure. The following officers were elected: J UNIDSCOTT, President EDXVARD AHLENIUS, Vice President VIRGIL MARTIN, Secretary GLENN IUNGERICH, Treasurer 153 w - 5 . 3 1 L6-ff 10 right: XVesley Summeriielml, Vernie Smith, Ralph Blievelllielmt, R2lf'1llOl1Cl Protzman, Villas Aygarn, Leland Evans, Russell Fielder, Miss Ross, Darrell Trumpe, Oscar Burke, Curl J aeger, Millard Lloyd, Clarence Reynar, VVilbu1' Keenan, George Means. 154 E E E l E llll unigj m ima ildl mg E?

Too much can not be said in regard to the ability of this organization for the singing of part songs for male voices. The club 's debut was made before the Parent-Teacherls Association. It took E them by surprise and caused a genuine sensation. Its next sensational appear- ance was before the High School assembly, and the unanimous approval, mani- f 't d b ' es e y a thunderous burst of applause, bade the boys comply with an encore. The first formal bow was made in the High School Orchestra concert. The members of the singing club were dressed in white trousers, dark coats, wing ll co ars, and bow ties. Since then, the club has made a number of other appearances. The following officers were elected early in the year: WESLEY SUMMERFIELD, President l l. RAYMOND PROTZMAN, Vice President I RUSSELL FIELDER, Secretary NVILBUR KEENAN, Treasurer T l h The personnel of the Glee Club is as follows: L.

Any person interested in Bloomington High School may become a member. The lt li? meetings are held on the third Monday afternoon of each month at 3:10 in study ll lf hall 11-L. The dues are twenty-five cents a year, and our slogan is Know our lj High School. , The September meeting was especially planned for freshman parents, and T 'T our principal, Mr. Goodicr, talked on cooperation of parents and teachers. The 1.1.1, annual reception for parents and teachers was given during the month of October. l About five hundred were in attendance. Superintendent and Mrs. McDowell, l . Mr. and Mrs. Goodier, Mrs. Blake Leach, president of the association, and all of l' Y' the high school teachers were in the receiving line. The high school orchestra 1 il furnished a delightful program. . Realizing that high school students should be physically as well as mentally and morally fit, Mr. Gordon Heughens gave us an enlightening talk on corrective ll exercises at our November meeting. Philanthropic work was emphasized during ll the month of December. The January meeting was in charge of the business de- partment. Four students gave a demonstration of rhythmieal, typing, and short- hand. The Boys' Glee Club sang. Following the idea of the year 's program-to know our high school better-the parents were introduced to our excellent band which gave a program interspersed with readings from the dramatic department for our February patriotic party. The art department made the March meeting it an interesting one by displaying and explaining its various phases. The April meeting was given over to the department of domestic. art. This meeting drew a large and enthusiastic crowd of mothers to see the fashion show of dresses and hats made by the girls. All Vocal and instrumental music and readings which we have enjoyed so much this year were chosen from talent in our high school. The association closes its year's work With the planning and serving of the ill? Senior-Junior banquet for three hundred twenty-tive people. This is the out- standing social event of the students for the year. The decorations and pro- gram are arranged by a committee selected from the Seniors and Juniors. The present officers of the association are: Mrs. Blake Leach, President, Mrs. S. VV. Bodman, Vice-president, Mrs. Virgil Griffin, Second Vice-president, Mrs. H. C.

But not for long. As the gloom increases, lights begin to flash in the streets, in store and factory windows. Welcoming gleams appear in the windows of humble cottages and pretentious dwellings. Everywhere, as if by magic, the darkness decreed by nature after sun- set is replaced by lightaa steady, unflickering light that rivals the rays of the sun in all its glory and brilliance. Have you ever thought of the source of this lightathe giant dynamos and turbines generat- ing the force which makes it possible? When a switch is turned or a button is pressed, are you familiar with the power which floods your rooms with light or starts your electrical servants at their health saving, time saving and labor-saving tasks? What if our growth and expansion had halted live years ago! Maybe your home today would be one of many without adequatexor any-Service. But we did not halt. We planned and borrowed for the coming yearsarfo serve the homes yet unbuilt, to meet demands yet unfelt.

They cave compiled the following information: Mr. Pearce used to get X regularly on his physics papers. Miss Onstott, because of excessive tittcring, used to get sent out of the library every day. Mr. Zellhoefer with all seriousness once asserted that the WI'ight brothers divided by ergs and multiplied by dynes give Boyle 's law. Miss Smith once drew a picture of George lVashington that was a cross between an egg-beater and a Venetian landscape. Miss 'Cash soberly stated in her senior history class that after David, the giant-killer, escaped from the lions den, he anchored the ark on Plymouth Rock thereby causing a great stir in the Republican Party. Mr. Kurtz used to be an unruly urchin prone to slide down bannisters and chew gum. Mr. Goodier was escorted to school by a nurse for the first decade of his school life. Sympathetic old gentleman: VVhat's the matter little boy? Are you lost? Little Boy: Yes, I am. I might have known better than to come with grandma. She's always losing something.

After deep concentration the science club of B. H. S. has come to the fol- lowing conclusions: 1. It is extremely unsafe to stand under a falling safe. 2. Water tends to moisten anything it surrounds. 3. Oarbolic acid shouldn't be regarded as a regular article of drink. 4. To obtain A in Physics, it is necessary to keep awake during class. 5. An article released from an altitude tends to proceed towards a lower altitude. 6. Late to bed and late to rise means that the teachers will hear more fables. T. One cannot be sure of derailing a train by standing on the track. Owing to the conditions in which the senior play was produced, Mrs. James was at several times contemplating changing the title from Tillie, the Men- nonite Maid to '4Fun in the Morguef' Deathlike coughs and rattles pervaded the auditorium, and on one occasion an enterprising undertaker, upon hearing the sounds, appeared on the scene with a choice line of shrouds and caskets with which he endeavored to interest the cast. His kind offers of reduced prices were refused, however, and the actors resorted to the solace of the Smith brothers, and to the comforting atomizer. CC07llL7:7l1l0d on page 209D 206 M. MOORE, Mgr.

A certain Junior made lots of money last semester selling seats to freshmen. ,... C We are reproducing a, letter we have just received from a representative of the freshman classy I am a freshman. I repeat it, gentlemen, I am a freshman. I am composing this missive to inform the world concerning the wrongs I have received at the hands of our teachers. I think this is a thing that should be common property. Time and again have I left the troubles of the study hall to journey into a blissful repose, only to be rudely awakened by a teacher, time and again has the voice of some instructor broken up my sweet dreams by asking some trivial ques- tion which he himself ought to know, and which I, in my mad enthusiasm to be- come proficient in sliding down the halls, have not had time to look up. And yea more! How often have I and my colleagues been obliged to stay eighth hours and languish in the office. Terrible, is it not? I close, gentlemen, inciting you to do something to stop this suffering in our class. Must we and our successors undergo this tyranny? Cannot We go for a lark in the halls or stage a free-for-all in the corridors without being interrupted by the hand of authority? Ah, but for that day when freshmen shall rule and teachers come under the yoke. ii QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS BY RHYLOW LE SAGE I would like a recipe for driving an offensive odor from the house.-Doris. Dear Doris: Chop two bushels of onions and intermix with limberger cheese, soak in ammonia and strew over floor. Dear Mr. Le Sage: I am a senior in B. II. S. How can I get in good with Mr. Goodier ?-Carrol Secor. Dear Mr. Secor: An affectionate kiss every morning will give the desired results. Dear Mr. Rhylow: A certain young man passes my house every day. I am attracted by him and would like to have him notice me.-Hearthroken. Heartbroken: Run out and trip him up. Then kick him in the face. By this method he is reasonably sure to notice you. Mr. Le Sage: I don 't like my teacher, in fact I often feel the inclination to murder him. Rush advice.-Distressed Physics Student. Dear sir: Tell the teacher about it, he might assist in the purchase of a pistol. A.

Wholesale Grocers-Coffee Roasters-Manufacturers CContmued from page 2163 A CLASSROOM IN THE YEAR 2925 QBy a descendant of a 1925 alumnusb Being on the board of one of the thirty-five high schools of Bloomington, I made a visit the other day to one of our local institutions. Having parked my speedy little monoplane on the landing Which is on the roof of the school, I took occasion to examine some of the other planes in which the freshmen fly to school. As you must know our freshmen must have some vehicle to pilot them to the temple of learning, even as the ancient freshmen had. While our fathers used bicycles, our sons who are freshmen now, fly the cheaper makes of planes. After lingering here for a time, I descended to the top floor, or the thirty-second story. From here I took one of the four elevators Which are in the school to the physics laboratory on the sixteenth floor. This elevator I am told will accommo- date three thousand students at a haul. Outside the door I was met by two of the force of servants that is hired to look after the Wants of seniors. The juniors have only one apiece as their tasks are not so great. The seniors must go to school one hour and a half per day, refreshments being served at half-hour in- tervals. Every other chamber in the school is either a theater or a rest-room, where our sons and daughters may find languid ease from the rigors of their hour-and-a-half day. All this is free, the only requirement being that the students are present at least one day of the allotted three days per week. This report I trust will set the tax-payers at ease, as they have been hearing rumors concerning the inefficiency of our high school course. CCom'mued on page 220D 218 Students Take Advantage!

She also says that she wishes we'd drop in sometime. I l E Miss Parker says that if John Bolman knew how to translate, knew how to E 5 read, knew how to pronounce, knew one-tenth of the words and was able to get E I the story and construction, he 'd be a fair Latin student. , Mr. Goodier looked sternly at the tiny freshman: Who discovered g America '? ' ' Qt The boy gulped, turned red, and then burst out: I did, sir, but I won't E E do it again. Q Well, folks, as Edgar Allan Whittier was wont to remark: Early to bed and early to rise gathers no moss. RULES AS WE WOULD LIKE THEM 1. All students being inexcusably absent for more than four days per week will be obliged to serve a ten-minute eighth-hour in the cafeteria. 2. All instructors holding a student after three-thirty will receive a de- crease in salary. 3. Freshmen must not be maltreated in study halls, take them out in the corridors. 4. Books taken from the library must be returned sometime. 5. A standing of 35 must be had by a student to get out of final exams. 6. Text-books may be referred to during tests, but two points will be taken off the grade. 7. Roller skating may be done in the halls, but participants must keep out of the first aid room. E 8. Ten cents fine will be imposed upon any student not chewing gum. Q E E -l H I A sophomore recently made the statement that of all his teacher's pupils, he loved himself the best. A certain senior after reading an autobiography was asked his opinion of it. 5 He replied that the only fault he found with it was that the author was so self- i E centered and was always talking about himself. . ! V. Pearson: I'm going to take a walk in the moonlight alone, Rufus, but you can go along. The tramp walked up to the kitchen door. He knocked, and when the busy- lady of the house appeared, he said: Lady, I've lost my arm. Well, I haven 't got it, she snapped, slamming the door in his face.

We 've thought and pondered till we're blueg and crammed and toiled and studied, phew! So if you'll only give us our just dueg and laugh and chuckle and scream some too, we'll think our little task is through. SPEAKIN' ABOUT ADVERTISEMENTS fWe've seen these in our travelsj 1. Plunkem's pistols. They satisfy. 2. I'd walk a mile for one of McWhorter,s caskets and shrouds. 3. Keep that school girl complexion. Use Smith 's curry combs. 4. Discipline the children. Use our bowies, ropes, machine-guns and arsenic. 5. Try our poison. Lassem's drugs. 6. I personally endorse Bacon 's cut plug chewing tobacco. Mary Pickford. 7. Stench-Embalmer and Confectioner. All work neatly done. 8. Johnson 's baby fold. Adopt a child. Fifty-seven varieties. Of course we all remember the occasion not long ago when a western seeress prophesied the end of the world. This was taken as more or less of a joke by the greater part of us, but there were a few who took the prediction as authentic, and believing preparedness to be the logical thing began to take harp lessons. Others whose hopes did not run so high purchased shovels, tongs, asbestos suits and other articles they considered useful in a sudden trip to another world. Joe Laskoski : How did you hurt your hand, sonny? Secor: I went into a cigar store to get a cigar and a guy stepped on it. Glenn Iungerich: I 've got a cold in my head. Edna Steinke: Well, that's something. Johnny Langham tells us that since a certain Grove street man broke his spoon he can 't stir. He also informs us that a very stirring time was had at a tea he attended last week. Wlien George Means was elected president of the band, he began his in- augural address by saying that it is always customary for a lyre to represent the band. Frank Tanner wants us to ask the girls if his attraction for them is just his good looks, or is he just naturally irresistible. Miss Manchester Cin social problemsj : Now I suppose that all of you at some time or other have committed some minor theft, say for instance, cookies or jam, and being found out by your parents have had to return it. Virginia Pearson: Not me. Mine wasn't that kind of cookie.

The accusation has been made 54 a L by our renowned sleuth, Mark Antony, a friend of the departed, and of Cleo- L. E Egyptian fame. is f' Late last night the local Weather bureau noticed strange proceedings due 4- M to atmospheric and general Weather conditions. This was thot to have some- p l Rl thing to do with the matter. Going to the home of J. Caesar to confer with him y p about this state of affairs, the officers were astonished to find him, as Mark Twain , T l would put it, weltering in his own blood. i , LE The coroner was about to put it down as the result of a family row Cas Julie if i and Cal were pretty frequent scrappersj, but at this moment Portia staggered in, 5 5 T crying brokenly. The poor woman's throat was found to be burned to a great ,T if T degree. Our chief inspector at first thought that this was due to drinking of ' canned heat, but closer examination disclosed the fact that she had endeavored ' to gargle an application of fire which her husband had led her to believe was good for swollen tonsils. She finally recovered sufficiently to make a statement wherein she told that Caesar had been killed by Brutus and Cassius in an argu- , y ment over a game of rhummy. i if Miss Inman: Lois, who was the author of the Scarlet Letter?
