Ever since they arrived at school a� Fresh- men, the faculty bus watched the records of the members of this cla� .� with admiration and wonder. The class, as a whole, is tlie most studious that the High School ever b s held. It has net an example in high grades that will make all future classes tip-toe to reach the mark. As Freshmen they made the first Gothic possible by their support when the proposition hung in the balance. As Sophomores they made up most of the famou« t am ,. President Vice-President Secretary . . Treasurer rb.it mvaded Worthington. As Junior they conducted the Lawn I-.'!.' and Historical Pageant. As Seniors they suc- i . . ded in publishing a Oothic after the two preceding ■ !a... bud failed. They also have at the present date praetirully won the mterclass baseball championship. Tli.' graduating class contains forty-nine members. It ' • iur ;:e a« some of the preceding classes. But judg- ing by deed-., it i- the best class the High School has ever known. I’M BiKbO'i,u Ye god� � bo ra� t your ahadowy fate t'pon each mortal way.

Ho had been warned anti entreated not to boy the item. Two of its former owners had been killed, and three injured while wearing the stone. He had now decided, contrary to the advice of his friends. • wear the diamond to the Margrave ball, and it wo for the pur- pose of making his toilet in preparation for the hall that he was now speeding home. The cabby, having seen the liberal tip bestowed upon James, and having visions of a like sum. made the trip in a short time, and speedily drew up in front of a house in the Rue Louis. Philip jumped out and pitching the cabby .1 gold piece, rushed up the steps nnd disappeared into the house. About an hour and a half later he reappeared It was dark now and all that lit up his presence was a larg� - dia- mond. So great and powerful were its rays, that they pene- trated the gloom for several feet around him. He had de- cided to walk to the Margrave's, the distance not being far. He arrived late and when he had deposited his coat in the ante-room, he entered the reception hall. Contrary' to general expectations Lady Margrave - cured the services of Magif for her ball, and when Fawnt entered, he saw the mathematician who was in a discus- •ion of the powers of the “Fourth Dimension. Ye-.” he was saying, “thru the possession of certain fourth dimen- •wo formuin. it b possible for me to change my form to •-hat of any other person or thing. The simple part lie; m the transformation, the complex is the return to mortality In the latter come the use of divers formulii and woe t« the «me who forgets the most minute particle of any formula ' fawnt joined the assembly and was introduced to Magif. The mathematician seemed much interested in the new arrival, and when he noticed the stone Philip was wearing, he naked question after question concerning it. Philip found, that, as the night wore on. the stone was a source of great annoyance to him. He danced with no •me. talked with no one. and walked with no one who did not ultimately bring the conversation to The Diamond. At last in desperation Fawnt left the room as the only way to escape his questioners. The evening being rather warm he went out upon an overhanging balcony to get the benefit of the slight breeze which was blowing. He had not been here long when he was startled by. (you will laugh when I tell it), a beam of light. The beam which had the form of a cone fell from somewhere above and terminated on the breast of Fawnt. The portion of the cone-shaped beam, which would be considered the base, rested directly upon the diamond. Stupified with fear and wonder Phillip fell back against the roil. The beam followed. Adapting itself to the slightest change in Fawnt’ position the beam moved, so that the diamond always formed the center of the circle of light about it. There was no e-cape. Move as Fawnt would, the beam followed. Without n sound but with beating heart Philip felt his senses return. His tortured mind naked the question. Could it be the diamond?” He wanted to believe it was, but he KNEW it wasn't. Phy- sicist ny that the rays of light after leaving their source must diverge and not converge. It could not be the dia- mond. WHAT WAS IT? The question surged in hi brain. No answer suggested itself, but now, ------something tug- ged on hi- shirt front. He looked, and ---- God. the diamond stud began to turn. Absolutely nothing touched it. Removed a though by visible hands, the diamond now began to ascend the beam. Frozen motionless with terror Fawnt watched in breathless horror, watched,-----the din- Thlrty-xtven mond aswnd the beam. How slow it went: would the accursed beam never die! The diamond disappeared, the beam now shimmered and the night enveloped it, a harsh laugh came thru the darkness, and Fawnt, with a cry, fell in a faint to the balcony lloor. How long he was there, he knew not. The sound of dancing and talking awakened him. and he staggered to his feet. Cold heads of perspiration stood on his brow. Disheartened and dismayed by the loss of the gem he de- cided to leave. Reentering the house he managed to pass thru the dancing hall without attracting attention. He saw Magif dancing a minuet with Lady Margrave, but such sights ill agreed with him. He gained the cloak room and found his cape. Beside Jt. was a coat of the finest seal, and one which had been pointed out to him as belonging to Magif. The music of the minuet ceased: all was quiet save the babble of conversation which came indistinctly to his ears. He stood undecided in the doorway, his coat on his arm. Suddenly and without rea- son a terrible suspicion come over him. He quickly ran hi hands thru the pockets of the black seal coat, and with a cry of pleasure withdrew them. In one hand he held � small package. With trembling hands he untied it. Why so much paper? At last! The final wrapping fell to the lloor and Fawnt once more held in his hand the Hope Diamond. A look of inexpressible Joy flooded his face, and his eyes drank in the beauty of the stone. While thus viewing hi� prize, some sixth sense made him aware of an- other presence in the room. He looked around and saw nothing. He looked up and saw there was one place ill the room where it appeared lighter than in any other. Surely it could not bo the beam. In great suspense Fawnt waited. He could not tell. Any thing to relieve the suspense of the moment, Philip turned the switch: the room was in com- plete darkness except for n mocking beam of light, which falling from above, overspread the hand, which held the diamond. Mad with terror, Fawnt felt the � tud turn in his tightly clenched hand. I ripping both hands together Fawnt saw with anguish the diamond pas� thru them ns tho they wen. vapor The diamond once more began to ascend the beam and Fawnt moved not. The diamond ■«topped. The beam shook ; and with n blanched face. Philip heard the soul-tortured cry, The formula, the formulii for reentrance to mortality. My God. It's gone, and I.-------- One more shriek echoed thru the darkness. The beam died out and the diamond dropped Into Fawnt's out- stretched hand� . All hall, happy Seniors of nineteen and twelve! Come, give us u word ere you bid us farewell. Enjoy your reception? Your face� say � o; And yet in your hearts there i� something, I know. You are sorry to leave us. now won't you confess You 'most wish to be back in the old B. H. S.? P« e Thirty «Uhl The Book of Fr? 1. The words of wisdom and truth which Frank. the son of Nick spake unto the class of nineteen hundred twelve 2. Now. on the twelfth day of the fourth month :h. fifth year of the reign of the king of kings. Karl Kams was I lifted up in spirit and borne eastward, even unto the land of the pyramids which is Egypt 3. But in my exultation of soul. I did not forget to take along with me a Brownie Kodak, and a contract f .i tin Gothic of nineteen hundred and twelve. I. Then did I stroll across the desert and ran with gre;«! haste, but I journeyed nowhere. 5. And while I was yet afar oil. I lifted up mine ev. and lo! the Sphinx stood before me. 6. Then a voice came unto me saying. Speak, thou son of Nick and hold not thine tongue forever.” 7. And I hearkened unto the voice and cried boldly unto the Sphinx: 8. Come on. thou child which wert born when the morn- ing stars sang together, look pleasant, please. 9. But the Sphinx he held his peace and no words i—ucd out of his mouth. 10. And thrice did I call unto him and thrice wn hi jaw even as the rocks whereon clustered the cedar of Ix‘banon. II. But behold I raiser! my kodak so that it might re- ceive his image. 12. Then of a sudden did a simoon gra p me by my middles and I found me before the Sphinx. ink the Buggite 13. And the Sphinx spake roughly unto me and re- garded not mine honor. 14. Quoth he: Thou ubiquitious scion of a cancelled postage stamp, what have I to do with thee? Were my will done, ere now thou shouldst have been removed hence to the regions where there is no sun. for they need not. neither covering against cold. 15. But the Sphinx restrained his ire. altho his heart burned hotly ngninst me. whilst I snapped him in poses graceful und unique. 1C. By and by the Sphinx thought to spring me his rid- dle. even which had gotten him the name of great wisdom in the year that are not. 17 What Is it.” he spake, that wnlketh on four legs in the morning, two at noon, and three— 18. But 1 stopped him saying. Avaunt. I am from B.H.S. 11� . The Sphinx then spake softly to me. thinking to beguile me. 20. Why is a Freshman?” 21. And I answered and said. 22. It is the sport of a fool to do folly and a merry heart docth good like a medicine. 23. And the Sphinx spake again yet already, Why is a Sophomore?” 24. And I trembled even os an aspen leaf: 25. Fret not thyself because of them for I have seen divers Sophomore spreading themselves like the green bay tree, but tests came and lo! they were not. I have been one Thirty nia :ind now I am wise, but I have not seen the student forsaken nor the diligent quite flunking out. 26. The Sphinx muttered. Why is a Junior?” 27. And I bowed m.v head and cried. Man was created a little lower than the angels. Shall he not rejoice when he knoweth it? 28. The Sphinx growled once more: Why a Senior? 29. Then fell 1 flat on my face and I was .sorely troubled: 30. 0 Sphinx, live forever! Hut I am not J Z. A. Me- Caughan to say why the barometer falls nor the tun ceases to shine when it is my desire. 31. Then 1 was borne aloft but I cried in anguish from my heart. 32. Sign this contract and I will trouble you no more. 33. So I passed from him us it is written. 31. Woe unto you. O Sons and Daughters of B. H. S. 35. For thou mayst enter freely but the going out is the hard thing thereof. 36. Agree with thine adverse teacher whilst thou are in the way with him. lest at any time he deliver you unto the principal. 37. And verily thou .-halt not leave the green carpet until thou hast paid up thy very Inst fnrthing. 1' And fie- res' the words of Frank the son of Nick are thev not written in the Buggite Scriptures?

Sent Cupid, god of love, down to tile land. And Cupid, changing both his form and face, Took on the form of lulus' youthful grace. And. in the queen of Carthage, soon inspired Such love that she was like a city fired; And like the fire that spreads the city o'er, Consuming passion through her frame did pour.

Fort Cudahy is distant three hundred miles and more by dog-trail. It was indeed a fear- ful trip for two men to attempt in the deep night of Alaska. We will not notice the terror� of the journey thither, nor the heroism of the pair battling for the lives at Nulnto. We will ignore the trinis of the faithful dogs, who alone made the trip possible, and turn to the last hours on the return. McGregor and Placer Jim were -talking stolidly along la-hind the sled. Placer Jim dragged a whip in one hand The dogs wore black shadows on the «now. Presently a thong slipped in his snowshoe and. with a curse, Placer Jim knelt down to tighten it. McGregor strode on alone and glanced at the sledge to see that the cargo had not shifted out of place. He looked up at the silent sky and myriad stars.

Down in the southern sky Jupiter blared forth and the Milky Way lighted the heaven- He looked at Jupiter again and remembered how it hail appeared to him when he was living hack in the States. It rose about seven o’clock, the time when he was making the last round to see that the stock was secure for the night.

We can call ourselves the Santa Claus of N'ulato. • • • • Tin- few people at Nulato assembled in a small hut that hugged the clifT. The dim light of the sputtering .-oil lamp revealed the wan and haggard faces of the men. “Maybe they were snowed under by the last blizzard. said one miner.

And as the light fades on the mountain top-, you sit in the soft evening twilight and rest and mu-, your heart is filled with a vague discontent, with longing-, unspeakable and hopes impossible of fulfillment.

In the mighty mountains of His handiwork, in the snow-clad peaks, in the canyons, in the rivers ever flowing on in the moonlit and starlit nights, in the silences and sounds of nature, there are pictures as great as any of th - masters of the past ever painted.

The door was Hung open and Sandy McGregor started back in wonder at the sight of them all as they kneeled. Then he roared out in his hale, lusty voice. Mer- ry Christmas, men. and God be with you.

But your unskillful hand can not depict the beauty that your eyes Itchold. You have no words at your command to write the poem that is stirring within your soul for Ufe, and for the wondrous song your heart la singing so ex- ultantly. How bitter is the cup! And yet if God had wanted one more poet to write lines of ever-living power, or yet another singer to make glad the world with song, and had wanted that one to be you. He could have made you so.

Ebenezer’s Isn’t it just too queer, began Truth, “that wo have never heard of him before? Now we have never those things at Christmas time that Mrs. Ferrington told us of.” Perhaps. answered her brother, “perhaps our people never heard of him. and of little fir trees, dressed up. and of having all kinds of good thing at Chrislma- time. A sudden thought came into Truth's mind and -do b. gan to explain it to Ebenezvr. “Come on. hurry up, and we’ll tell them nil about it. and then perhaps it may not be too late to cut down a -mall fir tree beyond the stockade and dress it up. Oh Ebon, v� u are always falling, do hurry up.” Ebon hurried on as fnst ns his sturdy legs could carry him. He and Truth had been to visit Mrs. Ferrington. a young matron, newly arrived from Virginia, whose gay clothes and polished manners had excited the suspicion and hatred of her stem neighbors. The children were not al- lowed to visit her. as she was supposed to have an evil in- fluence over them. However, they often accidently went near her house and then of course when she asked them they had to go in. On this particular day Mr.-. Ferrington had told them all about the Christmas customs of Virginia, and her story I'M Forty-six He learned to potter glibly Of Alexander's wars; And to recognize his cl room— By the figure on the doors! EDW. S. JOHNSTON. 11 A Christmas had impressed her young hearers greatly. The children finally arrived home, cold und out of breath. Their father v«« -eated before the fireplace and their mother was «pin ning some flax. The children burst into the room and be- gan to tell about their plan in an excited way. The horror and astonishment of their father was beyond description. However, the outcome of the matter was that they had five pages of the catechism to learn and might never speak to Mi Ferrington again. The father would see that she was brought before the next mrctlng. Their mother was also greatly li«pleosed with them and sent them to gather cran- berrie- in the marsh just outside the stockade. Truth and Ebencier gulped down their grief and mourn- fully made their way to the gates. The world was a sober plan for children those «lay , and they often had more than their share of its sorrow . They walked down the narrow cow path. There was no snow but it was a very cold day. The trees, stripped of their lean -, looked like gaunt scarecrows against the fast reddening sky. Truth shivered and buttoned her cloak more closely about her. Finally they came to the marsh and beuan to pick the berries. They picked until their fin- r wet aurnb iul wt «kma to warm them.

To them, first of all. bo our thanks. To the rest of the school we owe our thank� for their generous support. Without their financial aid the Gothic would have been a failure. Many of the under-classmen have contributed literary and artistic work to the Gothic. To them we express our obligation. We have endeavored to make the Gothic a truthful mir- ror. reflecting the light and shadows, the little Joy� and discontents, of the school year 1911-13, We have tried conscientiously to lie impartial In all our observations and judgments. Judge us by our work, for it is by our work, with ull its shortcomings, that we wish to be judged, but keep ever in mind our aspirations to do something worth while. “The Sweet Girl Graduate” Came from Campbell 5c Co.
