Af' hay Q 4 if If Pf6f8CC As the Idealists of the Victorian Age looked, for guidance and inspiration, to Minerva, Goddess of Wis- dom, with her shield, the Aegis, so we, the editors of the Aegis for 1926, have tried to bring our publication up to the standards of those beloved English writers of the century just past,-Dickens, Tennyson, Browning, and others. We have woven this book around those old masters, their styles and mannerisms, wherever possible using the delightful old English of our acquaintances in Pickwick Papers , and endeavoring, through our art pages, to give our readers an idea of the fashions and cus- toms of that day. We have chosen as our central theme, those lines from Dickens' Christmas Carol - I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future: The Spirits of all three shall strive within me. ie- 1: -1'-'ff 's rx? at V P' in vi'f'?Tf tri. ffm' ir 1, ' , Y 1 MN 1: At, 3 4, 'gy ,vi -Vs f9f.r..T'! 1 9 2 6 Qlfx Elsa-aff.

The regular meetings ot' the club are held in Room 11-l every third Monday ol' each month. The dues are twenty-five cents per year. The object is. To bring into closer relation the home and the school that parents and teachers may co-operate intelligently in the training of the youth. The social life of the High School pupil differs so radically from the grade school pupil, that we feel it advisable to organize our club for a different purpose, than that for which the grade school Parent Teacher Association is organized. The programs are on subjects ol' vital interest to parents, handled by men and women who are making a careful study of the present day problems. At the September meeting, Mr. McDowell spoke of ways by which we could improve school and community. The October meeting was three told in its purpose, a chicken supper, Dad's night, and an address by Francis G. Blair, State Superin- tendent ot Schools. Dr. Neuman, a well-known educator from the East, was the speaker for the November meeting. At the January meeting Rev. Baillie gave a heart to heart talk on boy and girl problems. He urged the necessity of parents raising their standard of reading. Future programs will be handled by such men as Professor M. R. Staker of Normal Fniversity. In February a Colonial tea, in commemoration of George VVashington 's birth- day, was held in the girl's gym. The program consisted ot musie and readings followed by a social hour. The present officers are: Mrs. Blake Leach, President, Mrs. S. W. Bodman, Vice-President, Mrs.'John Alexander, Second Vice-President, Mrs. Perry La- Bounty, Secretary, Mrs. R. R. Ross, Treasurer.

Un the ensuing pages of this litera1'y masterpiece Cotherwise known as the Aegisj. our friends are to have the privilege of feasting their eyes upon the artistic reproduction of the Sophomore t'lass. The class wish to take this opportunity to congratulate the Aegis Staff for securing such an attractive addition to their hook. XVC hope that they realize the magnaminity of our class in donating said attraction, which, of course, ensures the success of this year's Aegis. We entered school this year in high spirits, for were we not high and mighty sophs? Ilaving arisen by the no1'mal process of evolution from that harharic stage of scholastic existence, sometimes referred to as the Freshman Age, we set out to make ourselves conspicuous. NVe intended to accomplish something grati- fyingly original, something that would cause hoth Faculty and Student Body to hold forever in mighty esteem, the t'lass of '28, That amhition has heen fully realized. We have memhers in nearly every school organization: very few. indeed, are the clubs so unfortunate as to he without at least one memher of our illustrious and excellent class. XVe admit that Seniors are all right in their own way, and even Juniors are occasionally of some trivial value to the school. NVQ: have learned to tolerate Freshmen, for it is not in our power to abolish them. Also, we remember only too well that day when we, as Freshmen, sneaked in at the hack door of B.H.S. But we cannot help asking, where would a school he without its Sophomorcsl? NVho would supply the proper amount of pep necessary to the success of all proceedings? Vllho would introduce Freshmen to the amenities of B.H.S. society and, incidentally, show them their limited sphere? And last hut not least. how could our athletes dash on to victory without the constant support of that cheer- ful crowd-the Sophomores? In conclusion, we invite you to look long and earnestly at the following pictures of the Sophomore t'lass, and note the superior intelligence plainly ex- hibited on each face, and moreover, the unexcelled heauty of the feminine por- tion. t'an you not see the makings of great Seniors written therein? NVe grieve that our picture was placed third in order, heing preceded hy those of the Senior and Junior tllasses, hut we trust that Time. which softens all trials and trihula- tions, will eventually place us at the head of the list.

The Girl Reserve Ring is the highest award that a Girl Reserve may olmtain. It stands for the highest and hest standards of life in the girl. It is not an easy honor to win. Only the girls who work faithfully, untiringly. and uneeasingly for two sehool years may ohtain it. There are eertain fixed standards whieh a girl must live up to to aequire this ring. The girls who wear this ring, you may he sure. have lived up to these high ideals and are eontinuing to strive for the highest ideals of a girl. Last year twelve girls were awarded this ring and this year seven more have reaehed their goal and reeeived a ring.

The dominant spirit ol' the league is selt'-expression. Nurtured by their instruetress. it manifests itself in the modeling of pottery, the tooling ol' leather. the designing and making ot' jewelry, weaving. parehment work, eostume designing, home-planning. ehareoal sketehing, poster-painting and pastel work. The Russell Art Room at the Publie Library is ever 11 source ol' pleasure to the interested art student. An outstanding' exhibit of the many held there, one ol' landseapes and portraits done in oils by eminent painters, was visited by the elasses. Another exhibit well worth the student 's time was the display ot' jewelry and enamels exhibited during: the first week ol' Mareh. The Art lieaegue does not believe in all work and no play. Halloween l'ound the members gathered at the home of one of the students, where they were de- lightfully entertained. A sueeessful eandy sale was given during the seeond semester, the proeeeds ot' which will be used for the purehase of lantern slides for the study of arehi- teeture. All are looking' forward to the studio tea wllieh will be held at the elosing' ol' the sehool year. At this time the work aeeomplished during the two semesters will be exhibited.

The present mem- hership is unusually large eonsisting of twenty-three ehosen ones initiated aeeording to the regular ritual. One event which must he mentioned in eonnec-tion with the eluh ol' last year is the pic-nie whieh took place alter the Aegis had gone to press. The memhers, heing only seven, invited guests and after dining quite royally in a seeluded spot far from the maddening erowd' they journeyed to Atlanta where their unusual appearanee eaused various sensations at the movie whieh they attended. Ol' this year's soeial events it may he said that they laeked not in quality to hridge their want oi' quantity, for a Cliristmas party, a Valentine Party at the home of tlraee Rot-ke and the annual all-day meeting for which Madeleine Anderson entertained us are events to he remembered.

Croodier The Hi-Y Club boasts ol' being one of the few clubs of the school which is afliliated with a national organization. There are Hi-Y clubs in practically every high school ot any size throughout the country. Our local club has completed successfully its fifth year, under the direction ot' our new advisor, Mr. S. Arthur Chester. It has been largely through his help that our club has accomplished so much during the past year. ' The lli-Y Club meets every Tuesday noon in the Music room following :1 luncheon in the cat'eteria. 'Each meeting consists ol' either a talk by an outside speaker or Bible discussion led by some member o l' the club. Some of the speak- ers during' the year have been: Mr. .X. R. Freeman, State Boys' VVork Secretary ol' the Y. M. C. A., E. J. tlautz, Field Secretary ol' the l'nited Y. lll. C. A. sehoolsg Franklin Il. Bl'0W11, National Y. M. C. A. Director olf Physical Educa- tion ol' Japang Professor lil. li. Thrasher of lllinois VVesleyan llniversityg Super- intendent S. K. Mcllowellg Principal VV. A. Coodierg Rev. Durden and Rev. Grubb, ol' this city. Some of the topics ol' the Bible discussions were: Living Together in School, The llleasure ot' a Man, Democracy in the School, The Needs ot' the School, Obstacles and Enemies to Progress in the School. These were taken from the Bible discussion book, How to Make High School Lite Count, by VV. R. Boorman. The purpose of the Hi-Y Club is uniform throughout the country, To create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community high standards ot' Christian cltaraeterfi The Hi-Y platform consists ol' 'four planks, namely: Clean Living, Clean Athletics, Clean Scholarship, and Clean Speech. The outstanding event of the year was the Freshman Stag Party, given to all Freshmen boys the first of the year. It was a decided success. Some ot the other events of the year were: participation in the State Older Boys' Conference at Champaign, furnishing a Christmas basket to a poor family of this cityg waiting on tables at the Annual Y. M. C. A. banquet, participation in campaign for Foreign Y. M. C. A., and party for the Girl Reserves. The Hi-Y Club is open to all sophomore, junior and senior boys. interested in Christian work, and it is hoped that there will be a large number of new members next year.

Orchestra 'I'l1e Bloomington High Sehool Symphony Orchestra is rightfully entitled to that name l'or its membership numbers fifty-three and its instrumentation ineludes all the instruments of the symphony. The reeent purehase ot' the new Leedy pedal tympani eompletes this instrumentation. These tympani were pure ehased with funds from a Penny Supper tgiven by the lllothers' Clubl, from two matinee danees and funds in the orchestra treasury. Our first appearance this year was in assisting the Dramatic' Club at its playg followed by at lobby eoneert at the Y. M. C. A. We also enjoyed playing at the Senior Play, the Teaehers' Institute. f'omnieneement in January, and in assembly. The elimax was reaehed at the annual eoneert whieh proved a worth while sueeess. Our program 'for the remainder ot' the year ineludes the seeond Dramatic Club play, the state eontest at Springfield, aeeompanying the Hlee Clubs in their Operetta and eommeneement in June. VW have maintained a high standard not only in our own eommunity but throughout the state, for only last year first plaee in the state eontest was won by the rendering of the diftieult Seeond Hungarian Rhapsody by Liszt. Our hopes are pitched high for the same sueeess there this year when we shall play the First lllovement from Beethoven 's Fifth Symphony. Individual honor has also been assured by the presentation of a HB eaeh semester to those fulfilling eer- tain requirements. Finally, great eredit is due to Miss Ross who has been a t'aitht'ul, effieient director and also to Miss Kessler, Mr. Harvey and Mr. tlould who have ably assisted. t . 3 st fm ,g V, ' ., I.

One interesting feature ot' this is that tryouts or ehallenges in the different seetions may be had at any time at the request ol' any player with the Band ineinbers aetiug as judges. Another is the business meeting whieh is held onee a month and the weekly meetings ol' the executive eouneil. The first trip the Band made this year was to the State Fair at Springfield, September 23. This was a very interesting and enjoyable trip. Then at eaeh home football game, when the weather permitted, the Band did their best to give the team a boost, also playing for the Wlesleyan 1T01I10l'0l11ll1,Qf. The Band, divided i11to shifts, played alternately for the home basketball games as well as the llistriet Tournament and the WOSlCj'311 Invitation Tournament. On Feb- ruary 18, a short eoneert was given for the Teaehers' Institute. The Band, under the efficient direetion of Mr. E. M. Gould, gives their an- nual eoneert during the Bloomington Publie Sehools own May Festival VVeek. It is also looking forward to a trip to the State eontest at l'rbana, April 24 and to the Springfield set-tional eontest, May 1. ,,' T HJ G - -t it rv .vL 1 ,'- -K iw' if 81 , 'ii Ei f'. As , A.

Anv boy who 1-an prove eonelusively to Miss Ross that he has a voiee, may enter the elub. which already has a inelnbership of twenty-three. The Boys' tillee Club meets everv Vllednesdav afternoon and Fridav inorn- ing for a session ot' peppy singing after whieh there is a business nieeting. As vocalists, however, more time is given to music' than business. Our first appearance this year oeeurred in assembly where we offered to the Student Body a sample ot' what musicianship and tealn work will aeeoinplish. Just before Christmas, the Glee Club reeeived an invitation to sing at Fairview Sanatoriuin, to which it eolnplied with a number ot' songs. In February, the Ulee Club. was an important. 'liaetor in the program of the Teaeher's Institute. Among those far off and yearned tor things of the t'uture is the annual visit which the Glee Club makes to Springfield to e11ter the voeal eontest there. This visit will be made in the spring. As the Aegis goes to press, the tillee Ulub is praetieing for the Operetta, The Fire Print-e to be given in May. Very early in the year the following offieers were installed: RAvMoNn Pno'rzM.xN, President XYERNIE lil. SMITH, Vice Presidmzt GLEN James, Seerefury-T1'e11surer The offieers for the seeond semester were the salne as those for the first, save that Paul Rainsberger was eleeted to take the plaee ot' Vernie Sniith.

T:,.::i'f!a. :s.4'2..r'-J:a...f.'L1 Record of Athletic Achievements Bloomington High 's new athletie field, purehased in November, 1925, repre- sents one oi' the greatest aehievements in the annals of the sehool. B. H. S. has long been without a field of her own, whieh, no doubt, has handicapped the progress oi' her out-of-door sports. In this fifteen aere traet situated at the south-east eorner of lioeust Street and Colton Avenue, there is eapaeity for two gridiron fields, gardens, tennis eourts and a long einder traek. VVith sueh an asset as this added to an already flourishing spirit, B. II. S. should show remarkable advanees along many lines. For the rec-ent sueeess in aequiring our athletie field, too mueh praise eannot be given to the Board ot' Bdueation, through whose efforts it has been made possible. Football season this year, while not a sueeess from the win-eolumn stand- point, eertainly has produced some real men, Next year, Harrison will have three letter men: Parker, Bonny, and Burwitz, besides a large number of numeral men from whom to piek a eombination. B. H. S. is eredited with hav- ing one of the best sportsmanship teams in this seetion. Hopes were brighter with the eoming of basketball season. The B. H. S. basketeers under Harrison 's eoaehing soon broke into a winning stride. ln the Big Twelve Bloomington ranked fifth with SOOW. Probably the best game of this series was at Jaeksonville, where the Purple and Gold tossers eame through from behind to give the Jacksonville boys their only defeat ot' the season. The Bloomington High quintet showed the effeets of real eoaehing and steady training by defeating the Normal High favorites in three out of four games. At the I. W. ll. invitational tournament, B. H. S. reeeived a silver loving eup for Fourth plaee. Ralph Bonny was presented with a silver basket ball. the Pantagraph's best sportsmanship trophy for the eleanest player and the most valuable man to his team in the tournament, while Frank Edwards, elassed as the best running guard from the sixteen eraek teams entered in the tournament, was plaeed on the first All-star team. Traek should enjoy a great season this spring with Capt. Edwards, Brown and Vllaldman to form the nueleus of a fast trio. Coaeh Hastings has been turning out better teams year after year and this year should be no exeeption although his material will be new. We will be represented in golf by sueh notables as Elmer Burwitz, runner-up for eity golf' ehampionship last year, Clark Cannon and Lyle Diekey of last year 's team should show improvement, and Lueien Caruso, among the freshmen, ought to make a strong bid for the team. Intra Mural basket ball, instituted at B. H. S. this year, mainly through the intiuenee ot' Athletic Direetor Hastings, has proved a great sueeess. The purpose of this league is to give those boys who do not make the regular squad a ehanee to play basket ball. An indoor baseball elimination tournament is also planned to be played this spring between lntra Mural teams at the new athletie field. An inter-eity baseball league has been formed in whieh the four sehools of Bloomington and Normal will participate. A nine game schedule for eaeh team has been arranged. Our eoaeh, J. P. Harrison, is the President of this league. mg' ,rr '2'7f', ra if 1: ffm 7 jr- is Q3 rs s'7w11'i,f-e::V'a'iT:1 gg. , P51 ,gt f,ff':'s1 .f':,f!'ij.!

Misfortune too hampered Bloomington, as lQa.Due and Green were forced from the game because of injuries. B. II. S. 0-PEORIA HIGH 25 Again at 'home B. H. S. faced more bad weather and opposition.

Earl Andy7l Anderson was the real point-getter of our track team, taking a first in the one-halt mile in almost every meet he was in. lle also placed in the National track meet at Chicago. At Springfield he beat his man to the tape only by diving across the line. Capt. elect Frank Rutter boy Edwards first took his place in track circles as a field man, specializing in the javelin. However he came to the front in the later part ot' the season as a runner. Fred 'tFritx Rhea was a master ot' either the track or lield arts. ln the lield a jumper and discuss man, on the track a sprinter. hurdler and a member of the relay team, Edson Eddy VVhite was 4 uite a s 'rrinter and also ran the 220 on the med- . . I . I , I ley relay. VVh1te surprised lnmsell and everybody else when he took nrst ln the broad jump and third in the high jump in the Triangular meet. Irwin Irv Vllaldman was the Paddock ol' the team, for he ran both the 50 and the 100 yard dashes which always gave him two chances to place in each meet. He was always willing to t1'y. VVillis Galva Brown cleared the obstacles ol' the track as a hurdler and dashed by the others as he flew along in the 50 and 100 yard dashes to finish among the many top-notch sprinters. Allan lloob Iloobler. one of the lightest men on the team ran the halt mile, never knowing the meaning ot' the word quit Iloobler, for three years, has been one of the most consistent performers ot the team. David Davey Hartley always went higher than any other member ol' the team, but when he rose to such heights he always fell. David was a pole vaulter and is now a Pi lllu at Vllesleyan. Raymond Nurmi Baxter 'tstepped off the mile, a tit run for any man. in good time and was always near the front when the tape was reached. Ray is now at 1Vesleyan, and we will hear t'rom him out there this spring. Vlarence Bm-ck Breckenridge had the hal'dest run in track, 440 yard dash, a dead sprint, also he ran on Medley Relay team. His trilling tinisli was at VVesleyan where he was defeated by inches. Joseph Midget liaskosky was the smallest runner on the team. yet his nerves were the equal of any Olympic runner. The Midget ran in the distance medley relay.

Can any of you pronounce that? If only one of us were Russian, or had studied Russian, these rehearsals would not seem so impossible. As it is we are not getting any place tonight. Mary Montgomery, the young dra- matic director of the Players of the VVest- minster church, was meeting with her cast for the first time. They were to pro- duce a play written by County Leo Tolstoi, VVhat Men liive By, as the climax to a three-day charity bazaar at the church. The scene of the play was laid ill old Russia. The exotic names, costumes, and stage settings were new and puzzling to the members of the cast and even to the young director. 'LVVhy not try the Americanization school, Miss lilontgomery? There might be a Russian student over there who could WL help us a lot with these .foreign names and even interpreting the passages which seem so unfamiliarf' The young man who had this sudden inspiration had been selected to play the leading part, that of the Russian baron, Avedeitch. .is he sat on the edge of the stage swinging his long legs and dividing his attention between the attractive young woman before him and his favorite team 's stand- ing on the sporting page of the evening paper, he seemed too typically a specimen of poppy Young America to imagine in any other role. '4'l'hat is a fine suggestion, Mr. Burton. I shall see the principal of the Amcricanization school at once. lt' by chance there is a Russian student en- rolled there, I am sure he will be able to help us. VVe can 't do much more tonight but all please report promptly tomorrow evening at 8 o 'clock, and we will get down to real business. Hood night, Mary Montgomery had finished her dramatic training course at Miss Man- nin's school the previous year and her first position was that of play director at the large Compton church. She had been having innumerable troubles. in fact it seemed that a black cat was slinking across her path at each step. She was a young girl of nineteen with golden hair, deep violet eyes. a wonderful smile, and vivid personality that could inspire an artist of any sort. ller first play at the church had been a great success but unexpected difficulties had arisen on every hand since then and various hindrances were holding back the progress of the new play that meant so much in establishing her successfully. She hurried through her breakfast the next morning eager to be off to the Americanization school. The brick walk, the promise of spring in the air. and the bright sunshine all erased the worries of the night before and it was a very radiant and hopeful young woman who introduced herself to Mr. Bradbury, the head professor, and explained her mission.

I think I have just the man you want, Miss Montgomery. This young chap has been on my mind a lot lately. We meet many types here and I can 't begin to tell you how interesting it is to watch the unfolding interest of these foreign people and their blossoming into real Americans. But Maloska is different. He seems to possess an unusual intellect,-has been over only five months and his progress is marvelous. But somehow he doesn't seem to get the spirit of the school. Seems moody and unhappy. Just doesn't find himself. He doesn't make friends easily and I really believe he is desperately homesick for his old Russia. I shall be so glad to have you talk to him. As they walked into the large library the young man in question sat tousling his hair as he turned the pages of a book. About him were piles of magazines, papers, and books. He tossed away his long Russian cigarette and hurriedly buttoned his loosened collar as the professor spoke his name. He acknowledged the introduction with some embarrassment then with a courtesy altogether charming in its foreign difference, he led Miss Montgomery to his favorite corner. She noticed his close-cropped hair, so dusky dark, so un- like the long haired Russian musicians she had known. His clear gray eyes, sharp and observant, brightened immediately as she handed him the copy of the play and spoke of Russia. fllh yes, the Russian cobbler's shop. My grandfather had just such a shop in Petrograd. I would be so happy to explain the stage setting, said Maloska. Down in the factory district the loud whistles announced the noon hour and Miss Montgomery hurriedly arose with apologies for her long call. It has been such a pleasure, said the young Russian, and I shall be with you tonight at rehearsal to help you all I can. He did not go back to his books after she left but stood for many minutes at the window looking down at the busy street below. The rehearsal that evening went smoothly, thanks to Maloska, who not only gave the correct pronunciation of the many Russian names but who also gave invaluable suggestions as to the stage settings and costumes. His face lightened with pleasure when Miss Montgomery asked him to take thc part of Trofieoffka, thc footman to the baron, a minor part that they had not yet bothered to fill. She realized what a help he would be to her as one of the east and although not sure of his dramatic ability, she felt that with his few lines he could not seri- ously mar the play. But Fate sometimes plays queer tricks. As the rehearsals progressed the adaptability of the young Russian was most marked. Why', he knows my lines as well as I know them myself, said Burton, after he had been prompted in an undertone by Maloska who stood as a respectful servant behind him. And mine also, said the young chap who was taking the part of the cobbler. 'fThey surely do turn out bright fellows down at that Americanization school. They had better try their hand on some of the dummies in our English class. He threw away the shoe he had supposedly been mending and grabbed up his cap and college sweater to leave. Finally the afternoon arrived for the last rehearsal. All was in readiness for the performance that evening. Most of the cast had arrived and Miss Mont- gomery had just remarked that the bad luck attending the first rehearsals had given away to the best of luck as the time of the production drew near. Then thc telephone bell rang. As Miss Montgomery hung up the receiver she turned to the young people with a most dismayed look on her usually bright and cheery face. HMr. Burton has been injured in an automobile accident and has been taken to the hospital, she exclaimed. His injuries are not serious but he 104 cannot be with us tonight. A suspicion of tears clouded her pretty eyes. VVhat shall we do? 'tMaloska has memorized every one of the baron 's lines, said one of the east. HI believe he could take the part. VVhy donlt you try him out? Any one could learn Maloska part of the footman in five minutes. When Maloska arrived and was told of the accident he modestly consented to take the difficult part.. Anything to help you, Miss Montgomery, he said. 'tYou have been so good to me and brought me so many new friends. For the first time I am almost happy in your America. He went through the trying last rehearsal with scarcely a mistake but almost as one in a daze so strange was the part to him. HI shall do better tonight, Miss Montgomery, so you won't be ashamed of me, he said as he left. The cvening's performance at last was over. The curtain dropped with the words of the young Russian still on the air. The audience sat spell bound. The Russian 's plea for love, truth and justice was so sincere, so tilled with all the strength and fervor of his young manhood that his listeners were transported from their every day hurrying busy lives into a new world brought to them by Ma l oska. The next morning Maloska was surprised to receive a summons to the office of a prominent attorney. Much troubled he hurried to the address given. 'tWhat can it be? What can they want ot' me? Perhaps the immigration officials again! Perhaps they will not let the little brother come. He needs me so. But no,- they promised. Quickly these thoughts ran through his mind as he opened the office door. The attorney, two elderly gentlemen and Miss Montgomery were seated about a. large table conversing about the play of the night before. Maloska made a low bow to Miss Montgomery then recognized one ot' the men as Mr. Cushman, president of the Westminster Players. Cushman arose and introduced him first to the attorney and then to the gentleman seated at his side, saying: 'tMr. Maloska, I want you to meet my old friend Mr. Foreman. one ot' the best known dramatic critics and producers ot our day. He happened to be in our city last evening and was my guest at our Players' performance. Ile has been nice enough to say really wonderful things about our little amateur production. And about one of your players in particular, Cushman. I am most happy to meet this young man, and he grasped Maloska's hand firmly. They all sat dow11 about the table as the producer then told ot' the Russian play, Ivanwich,l' he was about to launch and of his quest tor the right man to take the title role. And I am offering you the part, Maloskaf' he said. After seeing your interpretation of the baron's part in last evening's performance I know I need look no further it' you will consent to sign up with my company for the coming season. Miss Montgomery, I am happy to say, has decided also to come as assistant director. My lawyer here is all ready to finish our contract. I hope I may include yours also, Maloskaf' Thank you, Mr. Foreman said Maloska. HI know of no greater pleasure than to live the life of a noble Russian on the stage of your great America and show to your people our life and our ideals but I can not now. I must work. I must learn. I have my living to make. I have my young brother, who is com- ing over soon, to support and educate. Lite must be more to me than the acting oi' the beautiful plays I have enjoyed so much. The others about the table looked from one to the other and smiled. My dear fellow, said Mr. Cushman, you do not understand. Mr. Foreman 's offer brings with it more tha11 mere glory. As leading man in his company you would 105 command one of the highest salaries paid in the theatrical profession today. Your name would be known throughout the land. Your future would be as- sured. Your brother 's education would be possible. It will mean lots of hard work and long hours but I know that it will be work that you love and work which you have shown yourself so ably fitted for. Maloska you have a God-given talent. And it is in your power to use it to make the world better through the spoken drama. This is your chancef' With a new gleam in his steady gray eyes, Maloska slowly pushed back his chair and stood as he had that memorable morning a few weeks before looking down at the hurrying traffic below. America! How wonderful! Only a short time ago it was new, it was terrifying-this, your America. But you, my friends, have helped me find my work. You have given mc a place in it all. You have helped me find my America. Cobbler at Dawn BY RAYMOND DOOLEY, '26 2nd Prize Merwin Cup Contest Danny woke with a start. What was that singing so sweetly? He blinked his eyes slecpily and looked out the window. 't0h, there it is! Pretty little singer! He wished that he might have such a little bird to sing to him all the time. He felt so good it seemed as if spring were truly here when birds sang at his window. He watched the little singer for a moment and then he looked at the beautiful sunrise. It was, Oh so beautiful, all of it. Why couldn't he have some of this beauty with him always? He turned to look at his little room. Bare and gloomy it was. Yet, on closer survey, it showed signs of attempted decora- tion. The walls were covered with very attractive magazine illustrations ar- ranged in an artistic way, and here and there was a crude water color painting evidently done by an amateur hand, yet with a singular harmony of colors. There was so much beauty outside, but how could he get some inside. Well, he was determined to have beautiful things some time anyway. In the meantime it was getting late and he must get up. Danny, oh Danny! called a woman's voice. Yes, comingll' Danny answered. Yell, hurry, It 's getting late and I do wish you would get some more wood for me. I just can 't do my baking without it. All right, I'll be right down. He hurriedly threw on his clothes, and, running down the ricketly stairs two at a time, he burst into the kitchen exclaiming, Lead me to the wood pile. I'll make short work of getting that wood. When Danny had brought in a great deal too much wood for the size of the kitchen and had succeeded in muddying the floor, he sat down to his breakfast. Mother, he said, Don't you ever get tired of potatoes three times a day. Yes, but we ought to be thankful that we have potatoes. Even potatoes cost a great deal nowadays. Yes, but other people have whatever they want and they don 't work any harder than father. It isn't right, I tell you. I'll bet father is already in the shop making shoes that he isn't even paid for. Danny, Danny, you shouldnlt talk so. You run right along to school and forget such nonsense. . - s ,QQZ 106 .W ....., a,S...li,., -V 1 If ,.... - F - - f,'4.,j 'A U L ft ff- . 4 . rv-. , 4 ,E 'GW' A ,N .4 ,ew x -:yu My M1 Y,, .A . 4 if . gy, ne, , A ,f. . .-- f -,v .- awk - '.

His mother kissed him as he left and said, 'KNOW be a good boy, that.'s all I ask. 'iYou know I will, Danny replied smiling. On the way to sehool, Danny notieed a large sign in front of a shoe store saying. t'Buy your shoes today at Leigh 's. 33lffg9? below eost. Today only. Tain't right, muttered Danny to himself as he stumbled sullenly on. Danny Dale was the son ot' Elihu Dale, a shoemaker of the old sehool who had had a prosperous business onee, but now it had dwindled down to a hare existenee for his wife and son. The more pretentious stores ot' the up-town dis- triet of Edgewood had almost ruined him with their large line of fam-tory made shoes. The fine quality of his leather and his exeellent workmanship were the only means by whieh he eould still maintain his shop. Mr. Dale was too old to engage, even if he wished to do so, in any other business and it was quite galling to Danny that his father should have to submit to what he termed the worst end ot' a dirty deal. It was the end of the seeond semester at Edgewood High Sehool that day and report eards were given out. Danny was delighted to find three 'tones and a 'tone prime on his eard, but best of all, beside his Hone prime was a little note whieh said, You show remarkable talent in art. I should like to see you take more work in painting after you finish Edgewood. Danny was de- lighted with the thought of bringing some of God's beauty to his room. To be an artist was always his ambition. Others had done it. VVhy not he? Yes. why not, he thought bitterly. He knew an artist 's edueation was expensive and was only for people with money. In his ease it eouldn't be thought ol'. His father would be elear out of business il' Leigh 's had many more shoe sales. Still he thought of it. If I eould earn my own way I might he able to do it. Father eould hold out for a few years without hardship. I take most ol' the money now, anyway,', he thought. On the way home that night while his prospeets seemed a little better than ever before, he notieed a group of girls ahead of him beeause he thought he heard his name. Did you see the grades that Danny Dale got todayf' said the girl in green. t'Yeah. I wouldn't be that smart it' I had to, said another. Oh, I think you girls are just jealous. I think Danny Dale is mighty fine, and he really is quite artistie,' said the girl with the white hat. Say Marge, it you think I'm jealous of that thing, you've got another thought eoming, VVhy the mit that kid wears is going to be valuable as an antique. H Yeah, he wonlt part with it beeause he eould never get another like it. And the shirts he wears! llvery time you look at them they seream out, 'mama made meh And his neektiesl Flame one for two years! t'You'd think his hair was mareelled. Ile ought to know that nobody likes eurly hair. 'VVell, he might not eare what you girls think about him. Did you ever think ot' that? Say he does too! He asked me for a danee once. VVell, did you danee with him? 1 9 Q QI? . P J-get A -.Jr .L .ar ref-'iZ5f ,1gfL.g4 107 I is . ms3i'?.'e:f-fm Me? No, I should say notl Why if you dance with these dumb kids, they all want to dance with you. t'Wcll, just the same Danny Dale is a good dancer and I would rather dance with him than some of the boys you dance with. Here they turned and left Danny dazed. So that was what people thought of him! He never had been so very friendly with anyone. He had just gone his way and let everyone else go their ways, but he had never imagined people felt this way about him. At first he was stunned, then enraged. IVell, he would show them what he could do. He would look as nice as anyone. He didn 't know how, but he would just the same. HWasn,t that Marge a good sport though! That was one consolation. She had said she liked to dance with him. Well, he was going to try to know her better. But the others? How he hated them! The artist in him rebelled at the orange rouge and the bright colors they wore. That night in his trouble he went to his favorite paper, the Socialist He was accustomed to read it when he was in one of his better moods and tonight one thing he read impressed him greatly. The editorial said, The wealth of the land is controlled by a. few capitalists and it benefits only those few. The capitalists are suppressing labor and slowly driving the tradesman out of business. The condition must be stopped before the spirit of democracy is en- tirely crushed. The wealth should be forcibly taken by the great lower class and divided equally among the needyf, That's rightf' thought Danny, wealth must be forcibly taken from cap- italists or oppression will be the result. A year later there was a different Danny Dale in Edgewood. If not the most expensively, certainly he was the most tastefully dressed boy in school. He went with Marge Bennett constantly and was quite popular among the fellows. No one knew just how the change was accomplished. He told Marge that he had a job painting little portraits on fancy candy boxes. He told his pro- fessors he had a job in a store but never seemed to be busy. He always had a lot of spare time. His friends began to wonder just when he did his work, but they never found out from Danny. Whenever money was mentioned, Danny was a clam. One day Danny was called from class to Principal McGrath's office. 'tDanny, said the principal, there have been a great many things stolen from the lockers this year and we have clearly found you to be the guilty one. Now, what can you say for yourself. All I have to say is that I wonlt deny that I did it and what is more, I was not wrong in doing it. I do not regret having done it. But Danny, how can you think it right. Certainly you know that stealing is wrongfl f'Not the kind of stealing I did. I didnlt steal, I merely took what right- fully belonged to me. Haven't I a right to the good things of life as well as anyone else? Haven't I a right to be happy? 'fYes, but Danny, happiness can never be built on stealingfl But this is different. I was only taking my share of the world's goods. My father, through the shoe corporation, is being driven out of business. It isnlt his fault. It 's the fault of the economic condition of today. The capitalists are suppressing the common people, and, before this is completely accomplished. the lower classes should prevent it. And the only way this can be prevented is forcibly to seize the wealth and divide it among the poor and make all men equal. Let each man have only so much as he needs and no moref' 2 108 1 gg- ef., - - .- Q -f f - ' L'-Q, 1 V ?1 zg'-jr-ft -L' E ,- h5..i !ileG..f tfr,Ctj'f'iii.nLii. - ..i.Q...'i .. fm .J .zfifilt My boy you are all wrong. Our whole civilization depends on capital. The wealth develops everything in the business world. All our conveniences we owe to capital. Railroads depend on capital. Yet who gets the benefit? Why my boy, your great common people ride on the railroads, use the tele- phones and street cars and automobiles. None ot' these things would even be possible if it wercn't for capital. Now take your father 's business, if it hadn't been for the system of money, there could have been no professional shoemaker. In the beginning of civilization certain men did whatever service they seemed fit to do best. ln return, they received a service. but this was clumsy so they devised a medium of exchange and the result is our money. Now your idea ot' dividing the money is wrong. Communism can 't exist 11ow because it was proven a failure every time it was attempted. Men have to have the incentive ot' possession to put forth the greatest efforts. Corporations which are regulated are a great blessing to the common people. They give them better articles for the most part. for less money. But what will happen to the small tradesmen? They can't compete with corporations. ' ' I am coming to that. The solution ot' small tradesmen is to specialize their product. Now Danny, in the case of your father, he makes the best shoes you know of doesn't he? Yes, and he doesn't get paid enough. That 's why we have a hard time. lf it wasnlt for lieigh's- Yes, yes, I know, but I want to tell you something. Mr, Leigh has been for a long time considering going into a partnership with your father. Now you know that Mr. lieigh wouldn't do this out of sympathy for your father. Besides, men don 't go into partnerships out of sympathy. He knows your father's shoes are the best in town and he also knows that they aren't properly sold to get the most for them. Now he plans to make a specialty of your father 's shoes and charge extra for them. Your father in that way would get a better price and sell more shoes, while Mr. Leigh would profit by having a higher class shoe to sell. VVell, that would be fine if they could agree. 4'Ot' course, they can agree. And another benefit of capital : a very wealthy man of Chicago gave the art institute ot' Chicago a certain sum of money to educate each year a new and promising young artist. Now I still have the great- est contidencc in you, Danny, and I am going to give you a second chance. I will try my best to get this scholarship for you if you will promise to do the best in your power to be worthy of it.', I certainly appreciate this, Mr. lllctlrath, but don 't you feel that you are taking an awful risk in doing this? Nonsense, Nobody but you and I, another member of the faculty, in fact Mr. Stone the art teacher, is even going to know anything about this. But if you feel you don 't want it- '1VVhy of course I do. I only feel ashamed to take it. But I am hereby going to promise to pay back every cent and to try to do something worth while for you and the school. Five years later in the hall of Edgewood High School a new picture was hung. The picture was of an old cobbler working in his shop in the early morn- ing. The most beautiful thing in the picture was the dim light shining in the window. Ilnderneath the picture was a copper plate inscribed with the follow- ingg Cobbler at Dawn.

Til' 'ri 'r 55 N' me Rayqs Awakening CHARLOTTE HARRINGTON 3rd Prize, Merwin Cup Contest Ray Parker entered his room and glanced at his study table only to see a stack of well-filled envelopes bearing the return address of magazine publishers. With little or no enthusiasm Ray opened his mail and took from each envelope a manuscript and placed it in his table drawer with more just like it. He laid his head on his hands with an attitude of utter dejection. Ray was a young man of that important age of eighteen, finishing high school. He was try- ing to write, but his manuscripts always came back just as these had. Ray was exactly the type of fellow you could picture on a football field or the hardwood floor of a gym, but he had scorned athletics and stuck tight to literature in school. With the encouragement of his teachers he was going to become a great writer, yet, it did seem as though success as a writer would never be his because he just couldn't get a thing published. He grabbed his hat, and feeling a need of air, decided to take a walk. By either instinct or habit he found himself in front of Marjory Connor's home, and, by coincidence, Madge was on the porch. Now Madge had been Ray 's pal as long as either could remember, and always had praise, encouragement, or sympathy at just the moment he needed it. What's the matter, Ray, you look as though you had lost your last friend. Worse than that l I have lost my ambition. 'Got another bunch of returned manuscripts again today with one of those sweet little notes attached, 'Thanking you very kindly for your contribution but at the present we have no use for this type of story,' or something to that effect. I guess I missed my calling. Maybe I never will be able to write. By this time Ray had perched himself on the porch steps and Madge listened intently to every word of his soliloquy tho she had heard many similar ones before. Now, Ray, you know you can write. Doesn't Miss Maynard say you're the best she ever taught? Someday you'll be an American Dickens and you know it. Ray put. a hand into his pocket and brought out a copy of the school 's weekly newspaper and turned to the editorial sheet which was headed: Ray Parker, Editor-in-Chief, and pointing to a certain editorial re- marked, Well, anyway, have you read this? It sounds a lot like Addison, doesnit it? Mr. Harding says that essay on A High School Life is the very best he ever read. Why, of course it is, agreed Madge. You know, I believe if I could go to college instead of to work after I graduate I might be able to do something. You know atmosphere has a lot to do with good literature and maybe these things I write sound sort of 'green' to those publishers. Ray, you don't mean that you can't write unless you live in a city, do you? Why, lots of our best authors and poets lived in the country. Oh, well, you just don 't understand. You know I should have more educa- tion than I can get here. Wouldn't it be keen if I could study those great French and Italian writers? I suppose Dad will say he can't afford it, that's his strong point. He will never understand that a college education is necessary to modern life. But the only way to succeed is to try him.

You're about as good as a Coke on a. hot day to give a fellow pep. S'long. ttGood bye, Ray. That night Ray started to talk college to his folks. It had the very effect upon his Dad that Ray had predicted, but after a talk between Mother and Father the latter agreed, I'll see Ray thru. then.'l So in September, Ray left his home. his folks, and his Pal to make a success of life at -li'olumbia Vollege. fl? it Si' IK: Two years later we see Ray again at his study table. but this time not in Mt. Rose, but in New York f'ity. This time he was not reviewing returned manuscripts, for only one letter had come in the day 's mail bag. He opened it and drew forth a letter signed 'tMother,'7 which he laid back to be answered at leisure. and a check signed 'fRaymond Parker. Sit, which he immediately pocketed. Just then he was startled by a tap at the door. I'pon opening it he found a fellow Junior standing there. 'tPardon me, Mister Parker, but this afternoon there is the final game in the tennis tournament between the Freshmen and Sophomores. The whole school is going so I thought I'd ask you, thinking perhaps you didn 't know about it. 'lSorry, but I am attending a. lecture this afternoon upon the 'Greek ln- fluenee 011 Modern liiteraturef and will be unable to attend your ,Q'2lI119,U said the sedate Ray Parker with a sense of finality which caused his fellow-student to withdraw. Ray had come to college to study the art of writing and he was writing. He had discovered during a lecture in which a professor said, 'tBe big enough to do the thing that you were meant to do that he had never been meant to write short stories for a magazine but a real hook. He fully intended to write the best Best Sellerw ever written. Modern literature was too light and trivial for Raymond Parker. llis book was going to be big.-not limited to time, place, or nationality. He walked to the window of his room and surveyed the campus. He could see a baseball diamond in the distance where there was evidently a little excite- ment. Here and there on the gornnds were boys reading or talking. He heard a terrible clatter and a joyous shout when a Ford, a relic of 1910, came into sight. It was painted red and white with black letters of printing on it. Galloping Gussie, Hthriftless and shiftIess and sliding breaks were printed on the two sides that Ray could see. He turned from the window in disgust. He was very, very glad that he was above that motley crowd. He went back to his table and picked up his pen to write. Immediately he forgot the rest of the college. He was living in a world ideal, a world of his dreams, his Utopia. He was perfectly sure that his book would raise the stand- ards of society. He believed mueh of the discontent in society came from light literature. Of course, he could not write if he had anything else to worry about. No one could concentrate on any single purpose if his mind were taken up with worldly problems. He was very glad his Dad was so considerate as to realize this in regard to money. He was interrupted in his writing by the delivery of the day 's mail. He received a letter from Mount Rose, but it was not in his mother 's handwriting After reading a few lines he ejaculated a ridiculous, but still read to the end where it was signed Marjory.7' I5 - ' ,gr-' 'Z' -' S L i , . , e -'Aff' ..

Nevertheless, that afternoon he packed his trunk this precious manuscript on the bottomj and took the evening train for Mount Rose. He couldn't quite understand the mean- ing of that letter. fDad seriously injured in a train wreck., Impossible. Dad doesn't ride on trains and he is a firm believer in that 'Stop, Look, and Listen' propaganda,-besides, if it had happened three months ago Mother would have wired me immediately. When the train pulled into Mount Rose, Madge was on the platform to meet him. Before the train had stopped he was off of it and with a leap he was beside her. Madgel Oh, Ray, I'm so glad you came-I'Ve met every train since I mailed that letterf, But, Dad? L' Oh, well-he is sick-in fact, always will be-Ray, your father is a cripple -incurable. Your mother would not let us send for you when it happened, because we were perfectly sure that a minor operation would be all that was needed to restore his health, and a jolt like that might mean the destruction of your career. The operation failed, and the finances are getting fearfully low so I sent for you because they need you. Dad-a cripple-a useless operation-Oh Madge! 'fYes, Ray, I know. Your mother will be very surprised to see you, but someone has to keep the place going and I knew you'd come at a moment 's noticef, Ray was silent. This was a blow to him, to his ideal, but with the determina- tion of his Dad he said, I'll see that things are straightened up. And Ray stuck to his vow. Thru his father 's position in the community he get a job as bookkeeper in the bank. How hard it was for him to handle such dismal realities as figures. Trial balances, monthly statements, and reports were real t'bugbears, but he had an invalid father and a dependent mother to take care of. He labored early and late, consulted specialists about his father 's condition, paid off the mortgage on the home place, and for some unaccountable reason had forgotten his book and was extremely happy. Then, too, there was Madge. He just couldnit remember how he had got along without her for two years, and she was a veritable ray of sunshine in the lives of an aging couple. He had decided for himself, even tho she didn 't know anything about it, that he wasnlt going to try to get along without her much longer if his own wish could come true. One evening as he passed a newstand he noticed that the new copies of Hearstls flosmopolita.nH were in, and he purchased one. In blazing letters on the cover page was The Rural Heart, by R. M. Parker. It held his eyes! That was his fathcrls name. He turned to the opening page of the story. It was a serial! Opposite the first page of the story was an account of the author. A small-town man, a cripple, depending upon his son for support. Ray 's eyes blinded with tears-his Dad! VVhen he reached' home he rushed to his father who met him with a placid smile and handed him a check, the receipts from an accepted story. t'For Heaven's sake, Dad, how did you do it? gasped the author's son. ' ' Ray,'it isn't so wonderful. What do I know more about than a small town and small town people? Ray laid his head on his father 's knee-' ' Dad, you have taught me something that I didn 't learn from all my studying or all my failures-that true literature comes from knowledge of true life. , .

It had been left by l'harles Yardley. when he died, to whieh- ever of his twin sons should learn to play it first. Mr. Yardley had made no will. The simple eottage home and a rather small sum of money were all he had to leave. and of eourse these went to his widow to raise and educ-ate the boys, who were but ten years old. No special rules had been set down for the eontest. The father, bedridden. had merely asked for his violi1I and then turning to the twins had said: Boys, my violin is all the wealth I have to leave you. If I had had an elder son it should have been his. Though I am the rieher for having two elder sons it is impossible to divide my only valuable possession between you. I have finally deeided to leave it to whiehever one will learn to play that old favorite of mine, Brahmls VValtz, the one in Ab major-you know the pieee. The first of you to learn it, to really play it, I mean, shall have my instrument for his own. I do earnestly hope that you will love musie as I have loved it, just for the pure joy and deep feeling it brings with it-if not as a profession, as a friend. Riehard knew well why the A lf Waltz had been his father 's ehoiee. lt was not only one of his favorite melodies, but ealls for sweetness of tone and expres- sion, aIId aeeuraey of intonation, as well as rhythmieal feeling for a. just pre- sentation of its beauty. Gilbert, Ric-ha.rd's twin, and yet so different in voiee, manner, and expres- sion. thought merely of the simpleness of the notes. Both boys had already learned to play a bit from their father, who though a music- lover, had had but little training. As for the instrument itself, it was oI1e of those rare old 'l'remona fiddles made sometime between the years of 1560-95 by Nieolo Amati, of that famous violin making family, tlIe Amatis. The model was distinguished by smallness and fiatness of shape, exquisite finish, perfeet mathematieal proportions, aIId softness aIId sweetness of tone. There were amazing stories eonneeted with it, of the fame illld genius of its masters, and how it had eome into the possession of the Yardley family, where it had been for years. It was a treasure to anyone, but a prieeless one to a Yardley. For a l0l1gl' time no definite IIIOQISUFCS were taken 011 either side towards aequir- ing the violin. The twins grew to be seventeen, llllllglllllg' their musie with other sehool-boy aetivities. Everything had been so undefined, there was no eertain person to play before, nor any set time to do it. Both boys played, but while Riehard would spend evenings engrossed in dreamily playing, oftener by ear or simply gliding over the strings at will, Gilbert, laeking mueh of the tone and expression of his brother, eould play written musie exaetly, though rather meehanieally. A musieian is not just a meehanie. He must be something of an artist also. So everyone, if he thought of it at all, supposed that the violin must naturally go to Riehard. That is. everyone but Gilbert. He did everything better than anyone else, and he knew it. His manner became quite assured, his step, his voiee, his air. f Y K... ' -. 0, 5 if .Q , '.

He cast a strong influence over Gilbert, being older than he and from the city. Mrs. Yardley worried not a little about her boy 's association with Clark, his enthusiasm over the wonderful places and experiences he was told of by the city chap. 'His visit ended by Gilbert's secretly accompanying him on his return and carrying the violin with him. Upon the advise of Clark, Gilbert went to a lawyer. He explained his father's wish to him, and then played Brahm's Waltzf, The lawyer fixed a paper stating that he had passed the test and the violin was his. This docu- ment Gilbert sent to his mother, nothing more. Clark's motive was to induce Gilbert to sell the violin and for the two to start in some kind of small business on the proceeds. VVhat diya think it 'll bring, Kid? asked the almost too helpful and encouraging Clark. HI donit know exactly how many dollars. Father always said it was price- less. Ought to be a lot. I've heard of 'em bringing as much as 255,000-but- 'fBut what?'l Oh, nothing. Then after a pause, Oh, Clark, I can't! No, I can't! Vault what? Clark looked in a superior way at the boy. Gilbert was still a Yardley, and he could not part with their treasure. Con- sequently. Clark dropped him disgustedly in the city, alone. Too proud to return home, Gilbert found employment as printer's devil. It was hard! Oh, dreadfully so! Yet the world dealt more kindly with him than with many similarly placed. His ability was really great, his assurance aided also. He persevered, and success did follow. Year by year he worked steadily and finally he reached the presidency of the VValton Publishing Pom- pany. It is quite a different Gilbert whom we see heading the Board of Directors of the company at its annual banquet in one of the large hotels of the city. On the breaking up of this party, when all were in the high spirits of fellow- ship, one of the other directors, a Mr. NVarren, came up to Gilbert and half jokingly said: Say, Yardley, would you do an old friend a favor, and maybe enjoy your- self incidentally besidesnll' , I'd do you a favor any day, Old Top. As for enjoying myself, I'm out for anything. Well, l've a couple of tickets to a benefit concert at the Grand. I 'm rather anxious to hear it, but hate to go alone. You used to know something about fiddling. yourself, eh? So more in deference to his friend than otherwise, Gilbert accepted. Entering the concert late as they did, they failed to get programs. VVarren remarked: Our own company printing hundreds of them and here we are without a single one between us. I don't even remember the name of the violinist, though I've heard a mighty lot about himfl Gilbert is ears were for the music alone. He was silent during the remainder of the program. NVhen the violinist, coming back for an encore, played f'Brahm 's Waltz sweetly and sadly, Warren noticed Gilbert 's head was bent low and supported by his hand. In the hall was perfect quiet except for the master musician playing the masterpiece of Brahms. Everyone was impressed, but Warren was amazed at the attitude of his business friend. After the last curtain call, Gilbert rose and excusing himself from Warren made his way quickly to the stage. Advancing to the portege of the evening he spoke: -.-. , ..,. -.R L, .

'I.fifl'a.f?5.i1 My boy, if anyone ever deserved aid it is you. I have something I wish to give to you, not only for your benefit but to lighten a burden on my own heart as well. I have in my possession an Amati violin, a rare old instrument that I should be glad for you to have. It has been in my family many years, but now-now it is not in use. You need it more than I. Where are you stay- ing tonight? I shall be glad to bring it to you tomorrow. The violinist thanked his benefactor sincerely and graciously. Un asking his name he stepped back quite startled at the answer. Then with tire, HGilbert Yardley? An old Amati? Yes! Then more quietly and meditatively, But you said to lighten a- you still have it- Enthusiastic members from the audience crowded about the young man. The two were forced apart. Wlieli the confusion was over and the violinist turned to leave, he saw Gilbert still standing at the back of the stage. Rushing to him he said, Uncle, my father is waiting for me. You must come home with us tonight. We are now living in the city. He led Gilbert, too bewildered to speak, from the stage door to a small open car in the street. Its only occupant was sitting at the wheel. Grasping the arm of this man, Gordon placed his hand in that of his companion. When Gilbert retired somewhat later it was not to sleep, but to ponder on the events of the evening, to realize their significance. and to plan for the future of Gordon Yardley, the pride, the joy, the hope of Richard. Gordon, in whom the genius of father, grandfather, and all those ancestors who had played the old Amati, was inherent and amplified, who, in spite of poverty, had won recog- nition. and had brought the brothers together again and forever! Railroads and Real Estate Taken from life. By VERNICII1 P.xR'1'1.ow Honorable Mention, Merwin t'up t'ontest Sixty years of hard work and immaterialized hopes had left their mark on Jerry's face. No longer did his face flaunt that pleasant gentle look of good will toward all mankind. No longer did his weazened face light with pleasure at the approach of a fellow man. Instead of all this, his face had taken on the aspect of a man, infinitely old, wise in the ways of fickle humanity. but withal disinterested in all matters worldly. His eyes had lost their luster. his shoulders drooped, his tired limbs cried aloud for peace and rest-even oblivion. Every drooping line in his ancient body suggested weariness, and inevitable despair. For thirty years Jerry had run the elevator in the NVarner Building. Every morning, he had risen, dully conscious of the call of duty, and taken his place in the great wire cage that had been more of a home to him than the single miserable bedroom in which he wrung out his night's rest. Today as Jerry sat in the elevator on the first fioor of the building, he saw the door to the hall suddenly fly open, and two gentlemen catapult into the room. These gentlemen seemed greatly dismayed at losing so valuable a. thing as their equilibrium, and iioundered wildly in a mad endeavor to regain it. Jerry noticed that one of the men was a stout, florid individual, with scant wind but an abundance of cheerfulness, which was made manifest in a wide, good-natured grin he bestowed on Jerry. The other fellow was small, wizened, vs- f- '-- .1 -. --' -ea . . rv-.. rs -P1 ,-qw --i 9.4 ry .rj ,, - , ,1'.,.a,.. .gf , L .. ,J K- 3, 1, -V-V - J F' -si eff ' lE 'i..'i'f T :-f'f':fl .

On recovering their balance, this strangely assorted pair entered the ele- vator, with about as much amiability as a couple of Barnum's prize Wildcats. 1'Tenth floor, they explained to Jerry. Old Jerry pushed the lever and with a monotonous purr the great cage swung upward. One, two, three Hoors passed. Up, up, up, they climbed. Eight, nine- crash! A grinding of brakes, a short descent, and with a sigh, the.elevator settled back-stalled between the ninth and tenth floors! The fat man, surprised into a slight pallor, nervously hummed a tune in a vain endeavor to retain his fast-waning courage. His small wizened companion glared at Old Jerry, vividly expressing his opinion of old codgers who weren't good for anything, except to occupy a kidis job, and hold up the progress of commerce! Jerry, not in the least disconcerted by his passenger's apparent opinion, cupped his hands and called down the shaft. Soon a voice came hurtling up from the murky depths below: Hey! You, Jerry! You needn't be afraid. 'Lectricity turned off for a while, that 's all. Nothinl to get scared over. The brakes will hold you. Upon hearing this, both passengers groaned and grabbed their watches. '4In a hurry? inquired Jerry, complacently pulling an old pipe out of his pocket. Don't mind if I smoke, do you? t'In a hurry! rasped the smaller of the two passengers. Oh! no! Not at all! At least J ones, he added maliciously to his companion, You can't beat me to his office. You're stalled as well as I! 'tI'm not worrying, responded the fat man, placidly. But I hardly think it fair to talk riddles before our friend, the elevator boy, without explain- ing them. You see, turning to Jerry, It appears that we shall have quite a little sojourn in this ten by ten box of yours, so we might well get acquainted. I am Ezeckiel Jones, representing the Standard Chain 'Company of Columbus, Ohio. And this is my fellow laborer and deadly rival, Mr. Corbett, of Corbett 85 Hayden Chain Company, the only rival of the Standard Chain Company, in -Columbus. ' ' Old Jerry roused himself from his pipe long enough to observe, Pleased to meet you. My name 's Jerryf' 'tNice name-Jerry, continued the voluble Mr. Jones. There was once a man in Columbus by that name. A real poor fellow, so poor that when his parents died, when he was twenty-one, he was left nigh penniless. In fact, my friend, he is the cause of this trip which I am taking for my company and in which Mr. Corbett represents his company. The fact is, we were both on our way to a certain real estate office on the tenth floor of this building, when this-er-accident took place. Whichever one of us who arrived first would have got the deal and made his company. I,ll beat you yet! announced the tactful Mr. Corbett. 'tYou just wait and see!', Old Jerry, mildly curious, demanded to hear more. 'A I 've been in Columbus myself, once or twice, he explained. Mr. Ezeckiel Jones took a deep breath and a fresh hold on his narrative, then continued: In the first place, this Jerry was left with a few odd dollars when his parents died and he was advised to invest it in some worth while land. Being honest himself, he did not doubt the sincerity of the real estate agent who in- 116 I 3 V AA T M Y U . A - , .K ..I,,,...T V rg ,,., 7f.,f'5- -F -1 . ffl 17 'I-.

Imagine his chagrin, on discovering that he had purchased a swamp, a. mere drainage spot for the town. Discouraged but cautious, he placed the sale of his land in the hands of Arthur Hammond. well-known real estate agent, with the provision that, should Hammond ever tind a buyer. he would have to wait a month for the consent of the owner. before he could sell it. Jerry-Jerry- what was his name, Corbett? You know as well as I li' snapped -f'orbett. viciously. and I should think you could find a. more profitable way in which to waste your time talking to an old codger who doubtless hears about half you say, and understands about half of that. After flinging this off his mind, Corbett returned to his corner of the elevator and sat down sullenly. And Jerry, to his great surprise, discovered that his pipe had gone out. He struck a match and holding it to his pipe, threw his poor weazened features into full relief. It could be seen that his facial muscles were contorting strangely and framing queer frowns on his face--for Jerry was thinking. The voluble Mr. Jones settled back comfortably in one corner of the elevator and with a blissful sign of contentment, resumed his story. I remember his name-Jerry Atwood, that 's it. NVell, after easing his mind concerning the land he owned, Atwood went away. No one knew where. In fact, no one cared, for Jerry was a quiet fellow, anyway. and made few friends. t'He has been gone about forty years now and during his absence a. most miraculous thing has happened. His land or rather his swamp, was in the shape of a triangle, 'flat-iron swamp,' the folks called it. About ten years after Atwood's departure, the Pennsylvania Railroad was built through Ohio, it came directly through -Columbus. Strange to say. it ran right along the edge of Atwood is triangular strip of land and framed one side of it. Not long after, the Yokum Valley Railroad was begun. I! came through Volnmbus and crossed the Pennsylvania Railroad at one corner of this land, thus framing another side of the swamp. And it was about six years later that the Ohio Uentral Roalroad was built. It was a miracle, one of those strange unaccountable things that happen but once in a hundred years-for the Ohio Fentral framed the only remaining side of Atwood 's worthless ttlat-iron swampl' There it was. a worth- less swamp, framed in by three important railroads. Ezeckiel Jones paused for breath and to let the significance of his story impress itself on Old Jerry. The latter's face twitehed, his eyes sparkled- that was all. But Jones knew he had made an impression. so he rubbed his chin retiectively and dove headfirst into the middle of his story. By this time, explained the fat man. the city of Folumbus had im- proved its drainage system and the swamp land, hemmed in on all sides by rail- roads, was drained. That left a iiat lake bottom, excellent for building purposes. My company, the Standard f'hain Company, was not slow to realize the value of this strip of land, bordered as it was by three systems of transportation. We decided to build a. new factory on it. But here was an obstacle. How were we to find the owner? For three weeks we have been searching far and near for a clue to his whereabouts. At last, as a result of extensive advertising we received word of a real estate agent, situated in this building. who had power to sell this land, that is, with the consent of the owner. on a month is notification. But it seems that Mr. Corbett, representing our most feared rival, also received word, for when I arrived at the door of this building a short time ago, he bumped into me, as I entered.

It seems that the agent, himself, has forgotten all about the land, or else lost his record of it. Mr. Corbett, who had been listening all this time sneered superciliously. Jerry said nothing. Recollections were crowding themselves on his poor old memory and he looked at once dejected and hopeful. There was a patter of footsteps on the stairs which wound around the elevator. Corbett looked out and smiled. For there was a man winding his way slowly up the stairs to the tenth floor. He cried out exultantly: There! Look there, Jones! I'1l have you know our company doesn't do things by halves! Do you know who that man is? I do! That fellow is our second representative! I told you we would beat you. Ezeckiel Jones groaned. It was hard to be beaten at the last moment. He heard a door slam on the tenth floor. Silence. Corbett's representative was probably already making a deal with the real estate agent. How hopeless everything now seemed! Even the S-50,000 he had intended to offer for the land now seemed so pitifully weak and inadequate. There was only one possible way to get the land, to in some way locate Jerry Atwood, and that Within a month. His reverie was rudely broken by the harsh voice of Mr. Corbett. You thought I was crazy, didn 't you? I don't take any chances. While you were wasting your time talking to this old codger, my assistant was patiently climbing the stairs so as to be on hand in case I failed. Oh! No! My company doesn't do things by halves ! There was an awkward silence, during which Jones gazed morbidly at the floor and Corbett smiled slyly at his cunning. They seemed to have forgotten Old Jerry who sat quietly in his corner. Suddenly both men were astonished to see Jerry rise slowly to his feet and laugh dryly. A dry rasping laugh it was, hollow in tone, but greatly expressive. It was not a mirthful laugh. Far from it. It was cold, bitter. Jerry straightened up, and tottered over to the two passengers. He spoke slowly and distinctly. Gentlemen, he said. For over thirty years I have run this elevator. For over thirty years I have been little more than a. captive slave in this wire cage. I thought I was poor, I knew I was poor, in the eyes of men I have been poor. But now-at last, after these long years of waiting-now! Gentlemen, may I introduce myself? I am Jerry Atwood! An Apple a Day A COMEDY IN ONE ACT BY ELIZABETH AUSTIN, '26 Characters: Mrs. Alexander Smith CEmilyl Mrs. Samuel Harland CGertrudeJ Alexander Smith, Jr. Place: Living room of Smith home. Time: Eleven o'clock, Saturday, A.M. ' The curtain rises on a cozy living room, with a fireplace at center back, at either side of which is a low bookcase, and above each a small window. Exits at I if f 92 6 118 both right and left, the one at left is apparently the outer door of the house. In the corner at right, making an angle with the bookcase, is a stand and tele- phone. There are about four chairs arranged comfortably,-a pair of rather large upholstered ones, a colonial rocker, and a straight chair by the 'phone. A victrola stands at left, toward the front. From behind the curtains may be heard a phonograph record which should be recognized by the audience as a reducing record. This is heard for several minutes, accompanied by repeated thumps on the Hoor. The curtain rises, disclosing M rs. Smith awkwardly going through the motions of the exercise. She is dressed in very full black gym bloomers, and a white middy several sizes too small. 'Her hair is bobbed but most of the locks are fastened rakishly above her ears. Black tennis slippers and light, chiffon hose complete her costume. She keeps up her exercise for several minutes before a light tap sounds on the door at left, it opens, and a lady enters, dressed in street clothes and with several packages under her arm.

But really I didn it know that you-Oh, say, has Alec ever seen you that way? Smith: Well, no, he's never home in the mornings and I, er, well, this is the only time I have, you know, and- H., laughing: Why, Em, dearest, I'm sure he ,cl think you a poor, dear martyr, because it must be very unpleasant to go through all those gyra- tions. Oh dear! CShe wipes tears of laughter from her cycs.D S. Cgoes to a chair, sits down and tries to collect herselfj : Gertrude, do throw back your coat. Where are my manners? It's fearfully hot in here and I know you must be almost roasted. H., throwing back her Wraps: Oh it 's not too hot here, Em. You 've been engaged in rather vigorous exercise, you know. But tell me, how long have you been doing that? Smith: Why, to begin with, I've always had the strongest principles on how to keep healthy. I haven 't the slightest bit of faith in all thesc treat- ments which people take when all they need is a little mental pep and will power. Gertrude, I wouldn't be hired to call a doctor as some folks do for crazy little insignificant. things. NVhen Junior looks bad, I just send him out with his wagon or something like that. Of course, he scorns wagons, now, but he gets plenty of exercise, anyhow.

If you exercise a little each night and morn- ing, if you are careful to count your calories, you never need pills or powders. Just take our family for an example. I'm always well. I never worry about J unior's health, he and his father are never ill, and I pride myself that I keep my so-called ''school-girl-complexion'' and youthful tigure by these exercises and my diet. I never let myself eat any cake or sweets at meals. I believe in the Apple a Day motto, you see. t'I'he telephone rings and Mrs. S. goes across the room to answer it.j Hello! Yes, Junior. Why, yes, lunch at twelve, of course. No, your father won't be here, but what in the world does it matter-you what? An accident? Junior! 'What do you mean? Are you sure, I mean where are you? Come home this minute! I'm sure I-Hello! Are you there? CTurns to Gertrude! Oh, he 's hung up and I don 't know what's the matter with him. Oh, what has the child been doing? Harland: Stop looking so upset, Emily. -Come back and sit down and tell me what he said. Did I hear you Haccidentn? Smith Cdrags herself across the room and sits down heavily! z Yes, that's what he said, but it didn 't seem to worry him much. He asked several times if Alec were coming home this noon and he knows that he hardly ever docs come at noon. I can't imagine why he should ask! Harland: Emily! C7an't imagine why! Don't you see, he isn't anxious to see his father right at present. I think this begins to look interesting. Smith: Oh, I expect it does look interesting to you. You haven't a son to bring up or any of the worries that I have. All you have to do is tell Louise to he good and do as you do and then you can go shopping in the mornings while I have to stay at home. Harland, laughing: Yes, stay at home and follow a lot of silly directions for reducing! Two or three morning walks to town would do you twice as much good if you only knew it, Emily. But what are you worrying about Junior for? VVhere have all your health principles gone? And as for bring- ing up a girl, did you ever try it? Smith, beginning to cry: Oh, I kn-know you're making fun of me. Y-you think I 'm in-inconsistent, and it 's all a li-big joke to you, but can't you see, Junior has had an accident, a t-terrible one, I know, and I'm all alone and no one sympathizes with me and-oh dear! CNVhistling is heard outside, door opens at left, Junior walks in. His left arm is in a sling, but he greets his mother and her friend pleasantlyj Junior: Hello, Mother! Lunch ready yet?

As I have sat for hours thinking of nothing, I am justified in representing myself as an authority on this subject. This is a theme worthy of consideration by our greatest American writers and statesmen. Congress and our legislatures have often spent entire sessions talking of nothing and doing nothing. We often hear of lovers whispering sweet nothings in fair ladies' ears. Perhaps they are saying that nothing is greater than their love. After a comprehensive survey of this topic we discover that to some people nothing is better than money. Let those of us who are broke rejoice because we have nothing. Of course a man alone in a desert with nothing around him and to whom nothing would be better than food and water would gladly sacrifice himself and give nothing for a good meal. I recall that when I was in the fifth grade a teacher made the remark that nothing was better than Hgood, hard, earnest study. However, one day when she asked me what I was doing and I replied Nothing, she reprimanded me very sharply. Nevertheless, I believe her statement, as my past scholastic record will show. As I think that nothing could be worse than this theme, and my worthy instructor has asserted that nothing is better than a good theme, this production being better than nothing and nothing being better than nothing and nothing being better than a good theme, this work of art merits A plus at least. I have heard that nothing is harder than the final examination in the sub- ject which required the writing of this article, so as I love hard things, I do not hesitate to suggest to a sympathetic and obliging teacher that on that occa- sion she ask us nothing. 0 1 0 Armin s Kite HENRY SMITH, ,27 The fire in thc old rustic fireplace danced to The tune of its own snapping and crackling and put us all in a reminiscent mood. Sampson, the black man of-all-work at our cabin in the north woods had just mentioned that it was hercabouts that an enormous kite with a wingspread of some fourteen feet had been killed some years before, after it had annoyed the neighborhood for quite a while with its thievery. All during the recital of the episode Old Man Laribee had been stirring uneasily in his easy chair and scarcely waiting for Sampson to conclude his narrative he burst out, HThat reminds me of the time back in Snickersburg when Armin Podd made that famous kite of his. And so knowing nothing could stop him, we leaned back and prepared for what might come, and to the best of my ability I have set it forth here. 'tArmin Podd had not been christened Armin Podd. If the truth were known, a well-meaning but imaginative mother had christened him Arminius Lucius Snillmore Podd. But as soon as little Arminius had reached the age of five years he had vetoed all but the Armin and the Podd and never allowed the rest to be spoken in front of him. His argument for keeping the Armin and 122 v-1,-.ffgefaf-s A get Af.. ' ': '4'rw1 'fr' 'TA Avwirfyy. fl. : T.f.'f'y .,f,fQ- 'yu-fQ.w i .tix N gpg-V. L-, K.

Nevertheless Armin had more than a name for a heritage. He also had been given an imagination, unusually vivid. VVhen Armin was twelve the imagination to which the neighborhood had by now grown accustomed had made him the leader of his gang and one of the influential boy leaders in Snickersburg. So when he conceived the idea of making his Kite, all the small boys in the community were willing and ready to help. At that time he was but thirteen and his body having grown as fast as his imagination he was four feet six inches tall and six feet four inches around. The idea of the Kite was suggested by a certain old Amos Kuhr, who was noted for his original fairy tales, and by the reading of Jules Verne 's Trip to the Moonf' The summer vacation had just started and Armin with his two chums, Bill Stormer and Jack Bartell, had gathered their most intimate followers to- gether in the Podd barn and were elucidating the principles upon which the Kite was to be made. Yuh see,', said Armin, 'tThis Kite is gonna be so big it'll Hy and carry a man! Aw, it won't work, came back the chorus from the unenlightened multitude. But their attitude had changed at the end of Armin 's talk and from thence- forth until the Great Day there was no need of further persuasion. Pennies, nickels and a dime or two that otherwise would have been spent on candy were put in the public treasury to finance the undertaking. These contributions to his cause started the town talking so that when Armin went down town to pur- chase thirty-six square yards of tailor 's canvas, the grownups took a real interest in his project. But all that could be seen by the most careful spying was some of the boys carrying mysterious looking bundles into Podd's barn. At their homes the boys could not be persuaded to say a word on the matter. By the end of June all of Snickersburg was talking of Armin 's Kite, as people in small towns will talk of that about which they know nothing. Poor Mrs. Podd was as much in the dark as the rest of the town although Armin had asked her at one time if he could not take out a partition in the barn. As the barn had previously been given him for a workshop she had to consent and the next day the sounds of ripping boards and the screeching of clinched nails being pulled out were heard by people passing the Podd house. And hammering and sawing commenced in the Podd barn. lt is recorded in Snickersburg history that a marauder tried to enter the Podd barn one night. Whether it was one of the few boys of Snickersburg not admitted to Armin 's secret must be left to conjecture, but what is known is that a large piece from the seat of a pair of blue overalls was saved for posterity by the Podd bulldog! This piece of cloth may be seen at any time in the Snickersburg Historical Room at the Court House. Another week went by and Armin announced to the people of Snickersburg that the date of the initial exhibition would be in about two weeks. This created great excitement but a greater furor was produced when he purchased two one thousand foot spools of heavy hemp rope at the lumber yard. Armin announced that he would hold the exhibition or trial flight at the Fair Grounds and an admission charge of twenty-five cents would be made. People waited impatiently for the day, and when it finally came, every seat in the bleachers was sold. At the appointed hour Armin and his troop of helpers drove in through thc big gate carrying an enormous box eighteen feet long and four feet wide in an old spring wagon. He announced through a megaphone that he would fly the kite from the roof of the grandstand. Immediately his .9 123 1 --ea-aff--, A-,Q - f-ga -4 A ,U ..- 'ff ii ' if Ill? wt ttiFAiiii5'4i2i'LHeGIS 4 .,esr'f2i'f!fFf'3E5wJL .fa 1- .I ut' , L '-wet-.-QE iz: u.

The Kite proved to be in the shape of a huge isosceles triangle about eighteen feet from vertex to base. It was made of stout two by four timbers spiked together with a bowed crossbar which was a two by six board bowed by a stout wire cable and a similar cable was tied in front by which to fly the Kite. This framework was covered with the tailor 's canvas that he had bought and to this framework was tied a stout hempen rope, and for its tail he had used another piece of the rope with a noose in the end. Many conjectures as to what would be put in the loop were made and some ventured to suggest such things as a sack full of bricks or an iron stove. Wliile three boys held the Kite in place on the roof Armin climbed down the ladder to the spring wagon and spliced the end of the spools of rope which Jack and Bill were handling by means of a windlass to the Kite 's cable. Then climbing the ladder, he answered the question as to what would be used in the noose, by tying the loop tightly about himself and signalling the spring wagon to start. There was a jerk as the horses felt the weight of the Kite and then it swung free from the grandstand. There was a shout from the spectators as the Kite rose slowly over their heads with Armin dangling at the end of the rope. He was the tail! The horses had gone perhaps a dozen paces when above the shouts of the crowd was heard the crack as of a pistol shot, and the Kite hovered a moment and then swooped earthward, Armin well in the lead. The splice had failed to hold! The Kite fell swiftly on account of its weight but the boy hit the ground first and as the Kite struck the ground one of the heavy timbers cracked off and half stunned Armin with a blow on the head. The crowd gasped at this unexpected turn of events. The spring wagon was hurried to the spot and the injured boy was rushed home in it. After hovering between life and death for a while he decided to live but not in Snickersburg. So after he had sufficiently recovered they packed up and moved, leaving no forwarding address. M The old timer stopped speaking and looked around. His whole audience slept excepting me and so out of politeness I asked, '4VVhat became of Armin's Kite, Mr. Laribee? The old timer looked at me with a quizzical smile that showed his appre- ciation of my interest and said, About a week before Armin left, his mother held an auction of the pieces of the wrecked kite and sold enough souvenir bits to pay his doctor billf' The Johnsonian Dictionary CRevised to datej A1,MoN Ivics, '27 FRESHMAN, a vividly aquamarine fauna gentis homo common to the corridors of any exalted temple of learning.

Everywhere Purple! Now purple in its milder and less pernicious forms may be regarded as an asset-witness the gentle orchid hue. Also royal purple with its redeeming quality of kingly association-the lilac and the violet. But the peculiar shade which is the present obsession is a hideous combination ot' the worst qualities of all these, aided and abetted by an alarming quantity which makes it a de- cided liability. One does not need to have been 'thorn to the purple to wear its color. NVe see the best of our youth and beauty drowned in deepest purple dye, while others not so beautiful and perhaps not so young, go gowned in the more deadly shades. It adorns every show-window, and every woman from slim co-ed to broad-hipped matron hears some mark of the purple scourge. From hats to hose, from Broadway to Main Street this color sounds the dominant note in any gathering. Its policy is to defy nature by proclaiming itself in the wildest and most abandoned manner. l'nder Nature edict purple was reserved for one of the rarest and most elusive fiowers, the orchid, for royal robes, and for autumn sunsets, not meant to tling itself blatently into the eyes of man at every turn, but to be regarded as a precious thing and to be sought after. Of course the thing will pass and we can only hope that it will be soon, but for the present The purple we have always with us. An Allegory-On Troubled Seas FRANCES GARRISON, '26 Morning and Norway: A thousand lights sparkle in the trees, a thousand birds sing. Higher up on the mountain dwells Youth with his parents, in a little thatched cottage. Youth is a good lad apparently contented to live among his mountain people. On this same morning a large limousine rolls up to the door and a large portly man alights. He is Wealth and with him is Ambition. VVealth tells Youth all about the great ship which sails from Christiania and of the huge cargo which will be brought back from Cairo. Youth is all enthusiasm and the following week, with many farewells for parents and friends, he embarks on the good ship Fortune. The captain is Bully and the sailors are Treacherics. After two days at sea a tempest. arises and torn between storm and mutiny the ship puts in at Port Said, that port of missing men. Time wears on, days with a scorching tropie sun, nights with a yellow Egyptain moon, dark alleyways, evil brown faces, the gleam of -a knife, the cliek of a sword against its scabbard. Youth's meagre savings are spent, his friends have deserted him.

Youth sees -again the sunny skies of his native land. He has profited by Experience. Week CWeakj-Ends for Themes MARY STEVENS, '26 It is a generally accepted idea and an apparently unimpeachable one among members of the English teaching profession, that long assignments, especially those which include theme-work should be done with a greater facility and sprightliness of expression during that period, extending from Friday to Mon- day, commonly known as the week-end, and that in proportion to the time thus allowed the percentage of A-l,-'s resulting should be greatly increased. This collection of ideas is a vastly erroneous conception of the real state of affairs though undoubtedly true of the ideal. One hears, in English class on Friday, with a good deal of satisfaction the announcement that a theme is due for Monday, picturing the blissfully numerous hours which lie ahead to be spent in pouring out onels heart upon a subject which has long been simmering there. But one has reckoned without Chance, that careless fellow who may turn one's life awry and sadly enough it is true that Hthe best laid plans ot mice and men go oft astray. On leaving school in the afternoon, one is inveigled into walking uptown, thereby casting away just two hours which might have seen a theme to its ulti- mate finis had one employed them upon it, for two hours is the least one can expect to spend window-shopping before one's companions are success- fully turned homeward by the thoughts of those evening engagements which occur with such uncertain certainty on Fridays. Then it is that thoughts just hopefully fluttering theme-ward are again borne to earth by the realization that such things are not without a personal interest to us, since we too are scheduled to step out. However with the morrow before us full of infinite promise of free hours we sally forth. But, when next our eyes are opened upon the light of day we receive simul- taneously news which turn our way, like that of the wicked, up-side down. It is the fact that Mother has set her heart upon finishing our new dress before the sun sets upon another day and this can only be accomplished through our co- operation in attending to the various details of housework. When we ask, nay, plead that she postpone the dress she calmly shows us her list of things to be accomplished during the coming week and carefully 'explains just why none can successfully be interchanged with this. VVhat can one do with a mother like that? Nothing, absolutely. Especially when all the benefits to accrue are ours and mother requires only the assistance of our hands at the helm. So, without further waste of time, we rush through the morning's work answering the 'phone and doorbell countless times, refusing two invitations to while away the afternoon, with the statement that we plan to bury ourselves in our theme Hthe world forgetting, by the world forgot. But alas, when lunch and its conse- quent work are safely disposed of, mother calls from the upper regions to in- form us that she has run out of thread and that another spool is a positive necessity if we are to have anything at all to wear on the occasion for which the dress is planned.

'Q- us with chill grip for a moment, then we dash madly to match the thread, on our way meeting the two friends of the rejected invitations in whose greeting we guiltily seem to feel a trace ot' chill. Having run down the thread, rushed home and duly presented it, we settle ourselves with a sigh ot' reliet' to our writing. After some little time during which we fail to Hnd any special inspiration in our subject which is 'thaw-Breakers perhaps because of the state of mind which prompts us to become one, we have succeeded in grinding out three paragraphs when the ,phone rings. Mother reaches the instrument before us and we hear her sweetly insisting that her listener come right out to supper. We kiss our manuscript fondly adieu and descend grumbling vaguely to assist in preparing a rcpast for the entertainment of our most elderly and voluble aunt. She comes, she eats, she talks all night is our unholy thought while we listen unwillingly to her gossip. At eleven-thirty we are called upon to go along when father takes her home and when we return and try to snatch a minute to scribble a few more sentences, we are commanded to come immediately to bed. Next day having duly attended Sunday School and Church, we are dragged out to dinner and only succeed in getting our family home in exchange for the awful news that company is invited for supper! This is the last straw and with it our last faint hopes are shattered till only a. vestige ol' them remains, which lies in the forty-two minutes otherwise known as a study-hall period in which we will eventually produce our theme. We go to bed realizing that truly, Of all sad words of tongue or pen. the saddest are these-it might have been. Collegiate Car Is.xBr:L HiXICRING, ,QT ' ln the last few years, our college towns have been invaded by an ultra- modern specimen of automotive engineering. My cousin has one of these Hlate model cars. It was born in nineteen hundred fourteen and Uhas died many times since. It is an open air special having no top, engine hood or wind- shield. The body has no longer that Utin you love to touchfl but, with the use of various kinds of 'twar-paint is, if not repulsive to the eye, exotic. The upholstering is slightly worn and the protruding springs jab viciously into the occupants of the car. About the doors, only two remain, these being held in place by the use of screen door springs which have not the tension to keep them from tlying open and battering against the body, when the car is taking corners. The third door was lost when turning a corner, therefore causes us no trouble. The fenders no longer retain their symmetrical lines, having been mashed and battered in various encounters with their relatives on other cars. They have. however, been wired fairly firm in position. The headlights are of the old magneto type, and, although they furnish very little light for the driver, keep it from being hit by other vehicles. There is no tail-light, but a red lantern hanging from a rope on the left side in the back, answers this purpose very nicely, The gas tank leaks and needs oil, but never gets it. The radiator con- stantly calls attention to the fact that it needs water. The tires are in fairly good condition, with the exception of a few sand blisters. knots and breaks in the fabric. They all require boots, the four very seldom all being up at the same time. aff .i-1 T? ' - fi-Q., ff n. : ' ff' Z 1 -. Eff . iii Ti .- U al 3: .l 9 C3 127 V. 1. ' W ' ' , Q?

In fact, on a cold morning, it has to be coaxed quite a bit before it will move. After spending from one-half hour to one hour in pleading and threatening, it will occasionally cough a little, whereupon it must be choked desperately. After a short spell of this, one or two of its lungs get into action. More choking! After this warming up process, when the engine is pounding and hammer- ing, the driver throws it into reverse. It hesitates, shivers, then, amid the chattering of transmission bands and growling of the differential, it slowly backs from the drive into the street. It then proceeds down the street on three cylinders, whizzing and sputtering amid rattling and clarnorous noises of fenders, joints and engine trouble. Thus, with the radiator sending forth clouds of steaming vapor, it fades into the distance, which is seldom very great!

Now we come to the other type which we have called The True Student. The requirements of a true student are more than a few and not the least of these is friendliness. Never to grump or be ill-natured to an acquaintance, and be a cheerful companion to anyone you meet. Personality must be cultivated, for personal charm has great infiuence in the making and keeping of friends also in the success of an undertaking. Power in conversation is an important factor and one that many do not possess. Activity in clubs, offices and positions on committees helps this characteristic. All lessons must be well prepared and it is advised that one converse with the teachers on small matters of interest. This aids in interesting the instructor in the ambitious student. It is an honor to have a teacher call one by name in the hall or on the street. It is also re- quired that all the football, basketball and baseball games be attended. But since a silent spectator is of no value it is necessary to root for the home team with all the vim one has. All these things are not hard to do once the habit is started., There are many other qualities that the true student ought to possess but those come naturally when the above mentioned o11es are acquired. Merely study the as- signments, have plenty of ready answers, be a good mixer and one is a true student. The Night Watch BIURIEL FREEMAN, '27 It was a few minutes before seven, when Carolyn Berkley walked quickly down the straight, narrow street, to the city hospital, where she would take up her duties for the night. The roar of the marching feet of the pedestrians was as though muted by the still evening air. The streets lay as though musing be- tween the setting of the sun and the rising of the theater curtain. The drivers of the taxi cabs looked inquiringly, impersonally, at all who looked their way. Carolyn stood at the foot of the hospital steps and watched the hurrying crowd. Very few glanced at the great building filled with suffering. Carolyn loved her training, even the night work, which was so hard. But on night duty she didn 't see him, at all, or only from a distance, and that was dreadful. She had heard of him the very first day and it is perfectly certain that during her entire probation period, he never saw her at all. Carolyn used to listen to him coming down the hall. Thud, thud, he came walking with that peculiar authority which belongs to the staff alone. And thud, thud, went Caro- lynis heart. One always heard him for he slammed things. The nurses in the operating room would burst into a frenzy and in the surgical wards, little proba- tioners would run around and straighten things. He took everything for granted, and everyone simply roared at his feeblest jokes. His was name Morgan, and he was a surgeon. According to the school, he was a great surgeon. lt is a treat to watch him, someone told her, But it 's dangerous, too. rf-'P f he 1- : -vw - f s 55.1 '12-'K1 1- i ixf: 'f1 iw.,1wref .

He even throws things. But Carolyn was not thinking of these things as she slipped around in her rubber-soled shoes, filling hot water bottles and putting on hot mustard plasters. The work was hard and she did not have time to dream. After she had been on night duty awhile she began to think that life was sort of moon-flower, which only shows his heart in the darkness. It was at night that babies were born, and people died. It was at night that tragedy won out and emergencies came in. She began to know the rumble of the ambulance as it eame up the street. The elevator sometimes passed her floor and moved quietly toward the operating room, with its police and internes grouped around some quiet figure on a stretcher. The operating room lights flashed on, operating room nu1'ses appeared, as though by magic, steam hissed through sterilizers. gleaming instruments were ready at hand, sterilized dressings and utensils, always in readiness, were laid out on the tables and covered with sterile sheets. The anaesthetist had put the patient safely asleep and four hands worked as though directed by one brain. It reminded one of a two-piano duet,-sureness, gentleness, speed, eoordination. The operating room was again dark, everything was in order. There might he another emergency before morning, but the hospital was always ready, day and night, week after week, month after month, and year after year. One night they brought in a young bride who had been shot by her hus- band. It was terrible. Her shrill screaming could be heard all over the hos- pital. It 'frightened the young mothers and two little girls in the children 's ward. The whole house seemed awake, and half of the town was there asking questions, sending telegrams and long-distance telephone calls. The local phone rang continuously. It seemed as if the whole police force were there also. Things did not quiet down until almost three 0'clock, but Carolyn hurried from one patient to another giving medicine, filling ice packs, applying hot dressings, and little Bobby called for a drink every fifteen minutes, until finally he, too, drop- ped off to sleep. The morning sun came pouring in the windows as Carolyn slowly made her way down the corridor. A man eame stalking around the corner and nearly walked over her. It was Dr. Morgan. And this time he noticed her. Perhaps it was because she was terribly thin and rather wan, but she was really very lovely. Her hair shone like black silver, and it waved like music,-and even a surgeon cannot successfully iight the microbe of affection. I beg your pardon, Carolyn said as she backed away from him. But he didn 't say a word, just kept his eyes on her. Heavens! thought Carolyn as she almost ran the corridor, What a sneer. The very good surgeon was unusually quiet that morning and when he found his bottle of glove powder empty, he didn't throw it on the floor, as the nurses expected, and they all thought he was going to be sick-C ll. About half way through the morning he happened to think that Carolyn Berkley Calthough he didn 't know her namej had thought he was sneering at her and immediately began slamming doors, and yelling for patients that were not ready on scheduled time. No one likes to be thought sneering, when he is, for a change, thinking. if R' 17 ,.-, 7 fwfr, 'V J .H 'g. 31,5 ,.Ttv,m llself?.fL:Elff'f? -if-a-YT .1 1 2 0,i:3a52s'i3I:1-,. ea-e:s.e'k41a'r1:e,g.:esl 131 Ti?-ffg'f-S-Riffs trivia 13 iffiiff -fi' f ee fl And because Carolyn hated herself for being such a fool about him, and because thc hospital made such a god of him, and because he was so good-look- ing, she did not sleep very well that day. It was a few nights later that it happened. Everything seemed to come at once. There had been a big train accident that day, and Carolyn unconsciously groaned as she lay on her little narrow bed and heard ambulance, police patrol, and service car drive into the arch over the receiving room. To start the night right, just as Doctor Morgan was about to operate, the lights went out over the entire hospital. They were only out three minutes, but it started him on the war path, and he raved until the operation was finished. Downstairs Carolyn was also having troubles. One of the accident victims was out of bed and walking the halls, talking at the top of his voice. An interne got him into bed in a few minutes, but he talked more in those few minutes than any other person with the same chest expansion in the country. It was impos- sible to keep him in bed so they locked the door with the interne with him. In the next room was Carolyn ministering to an old man. He was a South- ern gentleman, and as he fought hard for his breath, he talked of his old home. He was fighting a losing battle. The doctor had said he would not last long- exposure, and then pneumonia. When he closed his eyes in the last long sleep. Carolyn's eyes filled with tears. But her work there was done and she hurried to a little boy of the accident. His cries could be heard all over the wing, and as Carolyn came down the corridor the different noises sounded like a zoo and a madhouse. But Grandma Burr and lfncle John, old cronies, were snoring and sleeping right through. One man, a farmer, was driving his hogs in his delirium. Another woman was pleading with an unseen man to lock her son up as he was going to burn down the courthouse because he was smoking a cigar. Carolyn hurried from one mental patient to another, rubbing sore and ach- ing backs, giving medicines and irrigations, and calming a frightened child. Then for ten minutes not a sound was heard. No one groaned with pain, and there was that still hush just before something is bound to happen. A small red light flashed above Carolyn 's desk, a call for help in the nursery. It was but a few minutes before a younger nurse came to relieve her and she almost ran down the hall. The infants isolation room, held but one tiny occupant, a baby boy, a few weeks old. The light was dimmed and the only sound was the labored breathing of the little sufferer, the gasping of a life so short. An anxious faced nurse in white was bending over the baby, never taking her eyes from it. It was easy to see that the baby was breathing its last few gasps. They were instantly keyed into action and during the next few minutes the quick sure-handed nurses became like perfect running machinery. The oxygen tank was started, gurgling forth its life-giving fumes. A hypodermic was relentlessly forced into the tiny thigh. No look of sympathy could be seen on the stern features of the nurses, no thought of the suffering mother and father in a near-by room, but their hearts were hurting with the tragedy, all these feelings must be expressed laterg just now all the force of their being, every desperate effort must be bent toward sav- ing the little body. 'tllas the baby been baptized? came almost harshly from one of the nurses. t'No, was the reply, Go quickly. The other obeyed and almost at once returned with a basin of water. The basin was an ugly thing, usually used if i W V Y Y W V - - ,+1.r.:.:g-- ,QQXP - Y Y 77 1 V Y I-4 WA , -W L, ..-1 V 4 A J! .6 Q - - W, 132 4, , , 7, ,, ' ' ' 'i --'X v-Q I. --X-Y ,-- -,vu 4 ---f .M ns ,E 'Fl 1 V4 5, ,qv 4721.7 1 Y.

The oxygen tank still bubbled and the blue-grayness continued to settle over the tiny features. The nurse dipped her fingers into the water and sprinkled the little t'aee,- tl1e breath was almost gone- and unrestrained tears fell from the eyes ol' eaeh as the whispered words broke the stillness, HI baptize thee in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen. As Carolyn slowly elosed the nursery door, a shrill seream was heard through the hospital, and she ran to aid the interne. It was the man in fifty-two again. His hands were eold and elammy. his pupils dilated, and he thought he was send- ing eommunieation by turning the handles ol' the water eooler. He thought water was running through the eeiling, he was impulsive and violent, and on the border ol' eollapse with struggling. From time to time he had a hall' eon- seious appreeiation of the surroundings and the absurdity of morbid eoneepts and was momentarily diverted, only to beeome lost again in fantastie thoughts. He pieked at the bedding and saw rats, ereeping, erawling things. He was by turns ineoherent, dazed, frenzied, and eompletely disoriented. Far down the eorridor a taint weeping eould be heard. It was little Bobby. He had probably had a bad dream, Carolyn thought, as she went to quiet him. As Carolyn opened the door she saw Bobby on the floor, and Doctor Morgan by his side. Oh, Doetor, what has happened? Is he all right? eried Carolyn, as she helped put the little boy in bed. The man in fifty-two must have frightened him, I guess, replied the doetor, I was just passing by on my way home. He was earetfully and gently tueking the eovers around the little patient saying, You had better stay with him for a little while, Miss Berkley, till he gets quiet again. 'tYes, Doetorfl Doetor Morgan watehed her straighten the room, then said, 'tYou have been very wonderful tonight, Miss Berkley. l'arolyn didn 't answer, there was nothing to say. She just tossed her head, and the daneing eurls on eaeh eheek trembled like voieeless bells. Bobby's sobbing had eeased, but still the Doctor stayed. Softly, earessingly, the light of day kissed the sky into blushing loveliness. The world was a sparkle with dew, and the mists ot' night were being torn by the sun. She went to the window and raised the blind. It's a wonderful life, she said, and her faee flushed with the rose of early dawn. A golden shaft of light fell through the glass ot' the window aeross the tiny bed and showed a pale little boy sound asleep .... Something niee must have happened to Carolyn,'l said the night nurse from B ward, as Carolyn eame into the dining room. She looks as if she is dreaming of Heaven.

L 'ilk-4 i e , a ussi ride in my hobby, that is, my Ford. You see, everyone has his hobby and mine is a Ford. We swung into Main Street. I smiled approvingly at the ready response to the accelerator. My friend looked disgusted. Very unreasonable, that fellow! I remember that one day, when I had lectured for an hour on my hobby, he told me sympathetically that I was perfectly disgusting. Well,- , I began. Just then a truck whizzed by and left me with only three fenders. Then, just out of my love for perfect symmetry, I skidded around the corner and left another on a telephone pole. I looked at my friend. He was struggling for two things,-his composure and his position on the seat. Um-er-you know how to handle this thing, don 't you? he asked. O, yes, indeedf' I responded grandly. At this moment the car gave a cough of despair, wheezed painfully, and came to a grinding standstill. I was frightened. My friend saw an opening for his disgusting sarcasm. What now? he inquired sympathetically. HHa.ve to see, I answered, jumping out confidently although I was des- perate with my true ignorance of the puzzling insides of a Ford. I crawled underneath, kicked a couple of parts, reentered the car and drove on. What a skillful mechanic! my friend said ironically. Nothing much, was my flattered response. As if in answer to my thrasonical remark, the car gave a final gasp and stopped. What is it this time?H My companion smiled his approval. Must have lost a sparkplug or something, I responded in despair. For an hour I tinkered with that Ford and still the stubborn animal re- fused to move. My amused companion offered cruelly sarcastic suggestions all the while and my spirits fell as his rose. I Hnally sat down-defeated. Now do you want me to fix it? inquired my friend in silvery tones that made me hate that metal from the mine to the silver ring on my finger. ttHow? I gasped, astonished at his apparent wisdom. HBy using a different plug, was the answer. I stared, utterly dazed by his composure. Before I recovered he had left, telling me that he was going to procure the plug. In ten minutes he returned straddling a shaggy, rather rickety farm horse. ' Did the plug 's weight necessitate a horseill' I inquired. He laughed, confident in tl1e potentiality he straddled. Then, as he hitched the horse to the frame of my Ford, a great light dawned upon me. We departed, the old plug doing meritorious labor in conjunction with the frame, and I rich in the knowledge that there are plugs other than spark- plugs that will make a Ford run. The Angel of the Alley ELINOR FORSYTH, '27 Many strange tales have been told of the Ghetto, but none so strange as the untold story of Danny-the ttAngel of the Alley. Danny and his twin sister, Rosemary, were young, eighteen to be exact, small-boned and slender with yellow curly hair and big blue eyes. Rosemary was considered beautiful, Danny merely effeminate. Their home was three cs 134 V 7'Vf'F T' e F! TV if A I :Milf VIP? I E7 'I' .7 4 :fit fn f. -. s , re., ,Fw ffX.v1.,Jl H , ,im ,V 1. M, i .Wye LR My vp .gl ,1r'- ?

It was presided over by Granny, a querulous, old woman, whose dark hair straggled untidily about her withered cheeks and whose dim eyes flashed belligerently, if anyone dared criticize Rosemary. When the twins were younger, Rosemary had played with the innumerable little Greeks and Italians of the neighborhood, while Danny had remained rather aloof and uninterested. Indeed, Rosemary had been the pivot about which their childish amusements had revolved. NVhen they had played Indian, she was Chief Heap-Big-Much, and when they had played Robber. she was invariably the most reckless desperado. Then Tony had moved into the neighborhood, and one day Rosemary had discovered that she was on the outside, instead of the inside. of the little circle. You dirty little Woy1, she had screamed as she flew at Tony, much as an angry kitten flies at a elucking hen. Tony. evidently a firm believer in equal rights for women and also in the fact that actions speak louder than words, had suddenly lost interest in his game of marbles, and had proceeded, silently but thoroughly. to slap Rosemary 's face. It was then that Danny had interfered and when the Hght was over. Tony had been nursing a black eye and a bleeding nose. Danny had been comforting Rosemary. After that Rosemary had never played with the neighborhood children. Instead she had sat on the steps of the tenement house and brooded. and com- plained constantly. The fight had made a difference in Danny, too. He had assumed a protective attitude toward Rosemary and had seemed to feel that. ungrateful as she might be, he must see that nothing harmed her. Roth on account of this and on account of his appearance, he had been nicknamed The Angel of the Alley.'y Nevertheless, Rosemary was Granny ls favorite. NVhen they were sixteen, Rosemary and Danny had quit school and joined the great hoard of untrained wage-earners, Danny as a shoe-clerk, Rosemary as a waitress. And still the twins were different. Rosemary 's salary was spent for perfume and silk stockings, Danny 's for rent. food and medicine for Granny. Granny was almost blind, now, and crippled with rheumatism. Her only joy in life was Rosemary. She almost worshipped her pretty granddaughter. and wished to spend all ber evenings with Rosemary beside her. For a while Rose- mary did not mind this, but as she became more and more fascinated by the gay life of the night clubs, she seemed unable to resist their magic. Danny would take her place by the bed and often Granny knew no difference. If she did notice the change, Danny would explain that Rose had to work that night. Then when Granny went to sleep, he would slip away and go from cabaret to cabaret until he found Rosemary. At first she would ignore him and give him no chance to speak to her. But Danny was patient and finally his opportunity would come. Aw, Rose, he would plead, l mon home. Granny 's alone an' besides I have to work tomorrow. G,wan home yourselff' Rosemary would reply angrily. Ya know the way. don 't you? An' who left Granny alone, anyhow? But Danny always waited, and while he waited he danced, not as others danced, but with a certain unconscious grace that drew all eyes. The Alley had become accustomed to Roscmary's ideas of fashion, but, when she appeared with a boy bob, it was startled out of its usual tranquility. Danny was even more astounded. ' Say, sis, he gasped, is that you, or am I seein' double'ZU ri-I' ' u'j-Q' i.

You look so-sorta-funny. 'fNothin's wrong, Rose, he answered. Only, with that hair cut, you looked so much like me, I thought I must be seein' double. Rosemary grabbed him by the arm and pulled him toward a mirror. ' ' Gee, ' y she exclaimed, Hwouldn't that croak you? Why, if you had a dress on, nobody could tell us apart. Danny laughed. It is funny. Whoyd a-' Allan, interrupted Rosemary. I got an idea l Mllreat it kindly, kid, it ls in a strange placef, UAW, Dan. Fanit you listen to me a minute?'l asked Rosemary. There's a masquerade at the HOrchid Oriolen tonight. I was goin' as an Egyptian, but this will be lots better. Weill just exchange clothes an' you can pin this hair around your head. Nobody will ever guess what we did. Won 't that be keen?', It ain 't a bad idea. at that, agreed Dan. Let 's try it. I 'll go first an' then, when Granny goes to sleep, you can come. How 's that? That night a golden-haired. blue eyed young woman was the belle of the ball. The other dancers forgot the moaning saxophones and the twinkling lights, and turned to watch her do the Htfharlestonfi Finally, when the orchestra refused to play another encore, and the dancers were reluctantly preparing to leave, the manager touched this young woman on the shoulder, and asked if he might speak with her a minute. After that the Orchid Oriole boasted of a special nightly feature--the Charleston danced by Miss Diana Dennis. The whole Alley flocked to see the new attraction and Rosemary was the only one who ever knew that, before Danny slipped away from home, he donned at rufHed dress and became Miss Diana Dennis. The other night clubs heard of this dancing marvel and Danny was deluged with offers to appear in the finest hotels in the city. So, by day, Danny was a humble shoe clerk and by night., Miss Diana. Dennis, the most famous dancer in the city. Rosemary was jealous, very jealous of her brother 's good fortune. She felt that she had started him on the road to success, and so should share in his profits. One night as Danny was returning home, she met him in the hall. 'tDanny, she demanded. t'What do you do with all the kale you make? 1 showed you how to get it an, I think you ought to give me some. I'm fiat broke and I gotta have some clothes. WVhy, Rose, said Danny. I didn't know you felt like this. You know that all the extra dough I get goes for doctors for Granny. Oh, sure. I knew you'd say that, replied Rosemary sarcastically. f'Of course, it goes for Granny. You're such a little 'Angel of the Alley., f'Aw, sis, clmon out of it. What 's the use of bringin' in that stuff about me bein' an angel? It's only fair to help Granny now. after the way she took care of us when we was kids. You can lt feed me that bunk, retorted Rosemary. f'NVhat I want to know ishllo I get the cash '? , 'tIlm sorry, Rose, replied Dan, but I haven't any extra. I'll give you some next week, tho. '4Next week, my eye. I'll get it before then. I'll show you! The next night Danny left the night club early and hurried home to make peace with Rose. As he turned the last corner he saw a flying figure rush up the steps of their home. 'fThat was Rosemaryf' he thought, 'fwhat was she in such a hurry about? Guess I'd better go see. He ran up the stairs only to find the door locked at the top. Rose, he called softly, 'flet me in.

TO MY VIOLIN When dreary, bleak and dull has been the day, And dusk comes on to crown the loneliness g When in my heart as well I feel the ILTUY Of yearning soul for far-off hap- piness, Still have I a friend of tested faith- fulness To whom I may for peace and quiet turn, My hope and faith renew, and restful- ness Of mind a1Id soul attain. Tho no concern Is shown, by those of Hesh and blood I'm spurned, Yet to my every temperament and mood This friend responds, who is not highly born, But fashioned in a humble work- shop, crude Who about the halls so wide, In search of a nook in which to hide From sneering taunts and wild shrieks of glee, When freshmen blunders you lordly rulers see. NVe're truly martyrs as Bunyan of old, Striving to be like you, so haughty and so cold, But what know we of numbered doors And fearsome' teachers who think us bores? So there we go all night and day, And blunder right whene'er we may. Please don lt View us with critical eye But pass our imperfections by. VVhy make us poor frcshies the object of pranks, .Iust look for the green ones among your own ra1Iks. ALICE INICCARTY, '29. DREAINIS AND FANCIE9 There are dreams and there are fancies Brighter than the summer sky, Dreams that brightly paint the future For our eager longing eye. There are fancies fair and lovely As the rainbow 's richest hue, But we find they're only fancies, For we never prove them true. There are golden hopes and prospects, But they 're only the ideal. And with all our eager searchings XVe may never find the real. IIORIN E. VVARIIOXV, '26, Its form, and made of wood. Yet of RAINBOW all friends - - - - Most truth of all Sympathy it lends.

MOON-MADNESS A garden, Flooded with Moonlight VVas meant for dreaming- There on that marble bench An ancient beau and his lady Are saying Goodbye. The snow of their wigs Is unreal Their faces are pale In the Moonlight. The jeweled hilt of his sword Flashes fire Through the deep lace on his sleeves. llnheeded, a tear Drops on the heavy brocade Ot her gown. On her white, rounded arm Glistens a bracelet of diamonds, Twinkling, alive. In her hand is a rose, crushed. Petals scattered On the white gravel. She shivers a little My Lord holds her closer- Crushes brocade against velvet. The air is heavy with fragrance I am overwhelmed- Close my eyes For a moment- I start, for I am alone With only the murmuring fountain And the tall poplars and straight liollyhoeks Against the wall, And mv dreams In the Moonlight. A garden Flooded with Moonlight Was meant for dreaming. MARJORIE HENDERSON, '26. Published in The Magazine World. March, 1926. PRISM LIGHTS Oh, what dazzling splendor is thereg 'Tis purely God's own artistic beauty, I'nmarred by man 's inferior touch, Shining to us mortals Through the crystal glass ot' prisms. The verdure of meadows in spring- time, The gold of sun and ore, The blue of summer skies, The red of hollyberries, Soft lavender of lilacs, Pale yellow of the rose. And then a flash of eardinal's wing, Ot' jade, ot' heliotrope. 6 ' M M- gg? -f,?'.f, v f ?l:SIQi L, ,- 140 Y Y, ,....,,. - .-- -f-- ' ' -'. '7' '-' -.

In a sense it was bigger for there were two evening performances instead of the customary one. And better-well our audience didn it vote. The first business of the play was the appointment of an executive com- mittee. This group was composed of Mr. Goodier, Mr. Kurtz, Tom Steidley, Mary McMinn, Frances Garrison, Eleanor Tenney and Hannah Ochs. This com- mittee selected Miss Ethel Gunn as coach to take the shoes of Mrs. James. They selected Edna Ferber's play Minick.l' Immediately a try-out was held for this Senior play, whose cast is made up entirely of the wiser element of the school, namely the Seniors. There were over ninety ambitious Seniors who were ready to take part. The cast chosen was as follows: Lil Corey, Emily Davidson, Nettie Minick, Mary McMinn, Annie, Gunberg Carlson, Jim Corey, William Ahlenius, Fred Minick, Raymond Dooley, Old Man Minick, Theodore Colteauxg Marge Diamond, Frances Garrison, Al Diamond, Willis Johnson, Lulu, Thelma Goldman, Mr. Price, Leo Zaluchag Mr. Deitenhoffer, Aaron Rhodes, Mrs. Smallridge, Myra Buescherg Miss Crackenwald, Judith Wetzel, Mrs. Lippincott, Irene Morris, Miss Stack, Ruth Christopher. Telephone voices: Geneve Tyler, Doris McLaflin. The play was more or less centered around Bloomington. Old Man Minick came to 'Chicago to live with his ultra-modern son and daughter-in-law. He could not adjust himself to the habits or practices of the younger married set and immediately made friends with two old gentlemen from an Old Man's Home. Not being able to contend with the idea of Father Minick and his friends inter- rupting her club meetings and social affairs, Nettie Minick revolted. Old Man Minick overheard her remarks that reveal her attitude. Much to the chagrin of Fred and Nettie, Old Man Minick planned to retire to the Old Man,s Home. They convinced him that it was absurd and planned a dinner at home and a quiet evening of pinochle, Father Minick's game. When they break this engagement for a more entertaining evening, Old Manl' Minick revolts and leaves for the Old Manls Home. One of the outstanding features of the play was the lovely setting which has been redecorated by Mr. Kurtz with the assistance of the following stage hands: Herman Salch, Henry Smith, Roy Anderson, and the Ahlenii. The following committee aided greatly in making the play asuccess: BUSINESS MANAGEMENT Mr. Kurtz, Mr. Goddier, Tom Steidley, Mary McMinn, Eleanor Tenney, Hannah Ochs, Frances Garrison ' PROPERTY COMMITTEE Margret Louise Payne, Harold Ensinger, Hannah Ochs, Eloise Peirce, Ruth Ahlenius, Maurine Chapman, Doris McLaHin, Robert Price COSTUMES Helene Griesheim, Louis Probasco, Geneve Tyler TICKETS Ralph NVeber, Paul Rainsberger STAGE CREVV Edward Ahlenius, Carl Green, James Riley, Arthur Stone LIGHTS Roy Anderson 149 . f F A -il ' -5: -- --1 ' -as ' 'wvi 'f i rr ' Y ' .?Z, - ff- V . 7 4f-1 ', I e W ' i of2f?'f'- ,J 'gff f.lf 'fEe'fS ff if ' LWM' J '..I H-LJ 1 , Y , l1' .J-2',- ,Lw..4'A...L' D' f,1.,Q'W.'3a-'l.2!-if-if J To our true friends, Mr. t'arlton and his eo-workers, Mr. Hayes, Mr. Buatt, Mr. MvXVhator, Mrs. Epple, and Mrs. Nelson, we express our appreciation for their many services so gladly given throughout the year. Even when the thermometer has dropped far below the zero mark, out doors, our elass-rooms are evenly heated and eomfortable. Then, as summer draws near, and our brows are fevered with worry over finals, all possible effort is made to keep us eool and happy. We doubtless seem at noisy, eareless mob, tracking in the mud of showery April, but they never frown. There is a smile ready and waiting for any who have one to exchange for it. Let us forgret ourselves and our important engagements for a moment- just long enough to offer a pleasant word of greeting to those whose task it is to keep our surroundings as we love them-the janitors and janitresses of B.H.S. .f Q ,sn -f '-r av-f 'L'M W I Zi xiii-:ref . . rw Z-SVP?

Speaking of hopping into it, reminds us of a little verse We learned when we were freshmen, and it goes something like this: p When I was a little boy just so high, Mama got a little stick and made me cry. Now I'm a big boy, and Mama can't do it, Papa gets a big stick and hops right to it. This is all that we have to say for the, present and we would merely ask you to wade through the following pages of the highest class of wit and humor, and don 't forget that the jest is the applesauce of life. Dad Pearce: If you were standing on the back of a train and I shot at you, how long would it take for the bullet to hit you if it was going a mile per minute? Edgar Robertson: Quick enough. Uncle: CTelling story of Spanish-American warj Yes, and that night the natives surrounded us and killed hundreds from our camp. Nephew: CEagerlyj Did you get killed too? English teacher: John, is the Word 'pants' singular or plural? John Klopp: Well, they 're singular at the top but plural at the bottom. X ge IX uw' R If -4 W ' X asf-- Paul: I wonder which part of the car it is that causes the most accidents. Penelope: The nut that holds the steering-wheel, I should think. 9 2 6 .sv 168 it .HQ THE FIVE FOOT SHELF OF PROVERBS The early bird catches cold. He who makes hay while the sun shines get sunburned. A hair on the head is worth two in the soup. All work and no play makes Johnny an A, Don 't do today what you can put oft' until tomorrow. People who live in glass houses should have neighbors with glass eyes. Birds in this weather must be tougher than leather. If at first you don 't succeed, quit trying and go to bed. Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, wise -is bunk. He who laughs last is the dumbest. A jest is the apple sauce of life. A cut a day keeps commencement away. Mr. Schedel: Why were the medieval times called the dark ages? Bob Price: There were many knights. Art Stone: May I borrow a pen holder? Miss Holder: Yes, but it isn't polite to call people by their last names. A DISCOURAGED CONTRIBUTOR After many terrible hours Through which I've thunk and thunk, I'm writing these few little lines Which you may call the 'Kbunkf' With every year that comes around We hear the same old call: Write stories for the Aegis - Which don't get in at all! Once in la while, small jokes we write Which may be printed at last: But even they must have some sense Or far away they're cast. When you try to write a story, Take it from me-you're brave! For stories which you think are good May make the editors rave. George Clark: I wish I could get ahead for a little while. Eva Stapleton: Goodness knows you need one. ,Sie ,QQ 3 ,g i f 169 U? if +v+'+niffe:i.f1 r-iii? 1 I --' ff- mi. Hrs. :W new 121 asL7?MQrQg-21 .

Milton S. : Bootleggers. Little Willie: Mother, did the cook tell you I'd been a naughty boy while you were out today? Mother: No. She said that you were a very good boy. Little Willie: Then I won 't tell you that she left the toast burn. A father, in the dead silence of the night, called downstairs to his pretty young daughter. Mabel, what time is it? A pause, a hissing sound as of hurried whispering, and Mabel called back: It's just five minutes after ten, father. 'tAll right, the father said, And, Mabel, don't-forget to start the clock again after the young man goes out to get his breakfast. A mountaineer school teacher corrected a boy who had said, I ain't gwin than Thats no way to talk. Listen: I am not going there, thou are not going there, he is not going there, we are not going there, you are not going there, they are not going there. Do you get the idea? Yessur. They ain't nobody gwinef' Did you put water in this milk? No, I just put ice in it to keep it cool. How kind of you, said the girl, to bring me t.hese lovely flowers. They are so beautiful and fresh. I believe there is some dew on them yet. ' Yes,'.' stammered the young man in great embarrassment, but I am going to pay it oif tomorrow. i.?.....

So he rid into town with me last Friday and attended the Oriental tlrotto Pieture Palaee. He set right thru three perl'ormanees and was starting in on the fourth when the manager ot' the show asked him it' he didn 't think he was aeting kinda funny, seeing the same thing over and over.

To those students who are about to enter the busi- ness world or continue their studies in higher institu- tions of learning, the value of cooperation and service to their fellow men is of greatest value. The electrical industry is barely 35 years old . Yet, think of its present day magnitude-its future possi- bilities. On what was it built? Not on necessity. It was built by the untiring efforts of men who devised ways to harness this force for the benefit of mankind. Today, electricity is used in some way in the pro- duction of everything we wear, eat or use. Not only should thought be given to the pioneers of electrical development but also to the companies which produce electricity with its convenience, comfort and economy. Their interests have always been and always will be those of the public. On such service as this is success deserved.

We like to look upon rt, in all its magnitude and variety, as the creation of a grateful public for its own service, It is that, or very nearly that. Today, more than at ang previous time, more people in Bloomington and vicinty, wear Roland Wooltex Guaranteed arments than any other kind. The Economic benefits of large volume are thus daily transmitted into better Quality for the consumers of Roland Guaranteed Merchandise.

You shouldnit say 'her knees is,' you should say 'her knees are'. He gazed at his wife in horror. For a long time he had been searching for her--only to find her like this! Gloria! he cried, Gloria! Can't you answer me? Her face was like marble, and was of an unearthly eolor. Mutely she shook her head. Her face seemed frozen-paralyzed-only her eyes seemed alive. Her husband shuddered and buried his face in his hands. His fingers closed over a hammer. He raised it and eyed it in horror, yet it seemed to be the only thing to do. It was only after a dozen heavy sickening blows with the hammer that he eould remove the beauty clay from his wife's face. rooi vc oo,' e':'2 vo 1i' T it fr- at frm' 'fifa.e's'ff? 32952-ei iii T 180 HG Co-Operation Reasons why you should be a Co-Operatorg You have to buy the necessaries of life each day, by purchasing them from the Bloomington Co-Operative Store the difference between the selling price and the actual cost after all expenses are paid belongs to you and will be returned to you later in savings returns or in social benefits.

A few years ago the millionaires of this country could be counted on the fingers of one hand-corporations with ten-millions of capital were unknown, and a bank with deposits of a million dollars was financial giant. Today, the business man is the outstanding figure in public life. Inventions are made usable through the skill and genius of the business man. Today, young men and young women less than forty years of age talk and deal in millions. Skyscrapers are projected and built almost over night by young people who yesterday were in school. This is not only the age of business, but the age of youth-and more than this, it is the age of mind. Business is no longer inferior to the learned professions. The business man can achieve more than the doctor, the journalist, the artist, the engineer, or the lawyer. I-le can enjoy more, and can bring greater enjoyment to those with whom he associates.

Out of five shots, well aimed, only ten redskins had bit the dust. Ah yes, he was growing old! Only too well did he realize this unavoidable fact. Already his luxurious red whiskers, the pride of l1is worldly existence, were now streaked with gray. Hark! VVhat was that? He sighted some twenty redskins creeping upon him from ambush and without introduction. Mildly displeased at this interruption of his reverie, he slowly reached for his gun but found it empty of shot. But Big Long Bad Bill Simpson was not so easily turned from his recreation. Seixing his ramrod, he nonehalantly shoved it into his gun and calmly warning the red devils to proceed in single tile, transfixed the whole of them to a tree with his trust y ra m rod. Hello, VVillie, dear,l' trilled the soft, sweet blithesome voice of our little Nell as she skipped gaily to the scene of activity. Big. Long Bad Aleoholic Bill Simpson slowly looked up through his lowered eye brows, for you must know, he was considerably embarrassed at having his pretty ward, Nell, surprise him at his favorite amusement. 'WVhy, VVillie,H scolded his lovely ward saucily, easually stabbing a red- skin who had crawled upon them from ambush. I thought you were going to hunt catnip for our pet wildeat! VVell yes, Nell, drawled Big Long Slippery Bad Alcoholic Bill Simpson deftly removing the scalp from one of the Indians before him, thus covering his blushing confusion at the Fari Nell's reproach. Just then Big Long Skippery Bad Alcoholic Notorious Bill Simpson glanced down at the valley below and observed one of the numerous opposing Mexican armies in search of diversion after a trying day of pilfering' peasants' farm houses in behalf of poor bleeding Mexico. Feeling sorry for them, and being' in a playful mood himself, he immediately grasped both cannons from their holsters and turned them loose rampant on the Mexican cause. XVcll, he checked the number of dead Mexicans until he tired of this sport. but out. of sheer inaction, he eontinued to give them a startling invitation of leaden hail. Finally, when but ten greasers remained to oppose him. hc gave a sigh, and fell over. Thus Big liong Bad Slippery Alcoholic Detestable Notorious Bill Simpson passed away with a toothaehe. The Mexican captain, being one of the first to retreat, was consequently among the ten living and he approached fair Nell with a beastly leer upon addled countenance. Before he could grasp her, the American army came upon the scene and the dashing chestnut-haired young captain, with five fairly well aimed shots demol- ished the ten part remnant of the Mexican army. Then he fell off his spirited nag. and, kneeling before the fair Nell, asked, t'VVill you marry me L! Nell waited a moment like the well trained heroine that she was for the author to get a few paragraphs of words painted off his system. Then she made reply, AASHTO! Vilhy not? The delighted young American was anxious to know why she had so readily accepted him. Did she like the lop of his ears, or the ten-cent marcel of his hair U? Not at all,'l Inade answer our heroic maiden, Don 't you know the story is nearly at an end? That's why we gotta get married and live happily ever after! -f I 3, t Q 1 , ' . v N. .1 '25 'C 9' fx, V. 197 MUCH APPRECIATED We take this means of thanking the pupils, teachers and members of the school board for the many courtesies extended to us during the past year, which we assure you are highly appreciated.

It is only with the utmost carefulness, that the winner has been selected. Miss Anna Cook, well known about the halls of B.H.S. is the happy lady whom we now name as the successful contestant. Herewith is the prize-winning limerick: To a sweet little Jane says a Harry, If you carrot all, lettuce marry, But here is the dope: If we two canteloupe, You 're my peach just the same, little cherry. It is quite evident that all limericks submitted could not be awarded a prize, though there were many that are deserving of the highest praise.

If you would know where these roads lead, look at the men who have travelled them, and consider that every old man was a young man once-filled with the same hopes and aspirations as you are today.

Artistic Printers - All Kinds of Commercial Printing Telephone 85 303 West Washington Street A LA CAN-OPENERS In days of old when knights were bold Two loved a maid whose heart was cold. They met and had a long palaver And just to see which one would have her. They held a hard-boiled fencing bout And tried to cut each other out. ABSENTMINDEDNESS The professor, who was famous for the Wool-gathering of his Wits, returned home, and had his ring at the door answered by a new maid. The girl looked at him inquiringly: Um-ah--is Professor Johnson at home? he asked, naming himself. No, sir, the maid replied, but he is expected any moment now. The professor turned away, the girl closed the door. Then the poor man sat down on the steps to Wait for himself.
