COLEMAN The year of 1915 marks a change in the Superintendent of the Brazil City Schools, for in this year, Mr. C. C. Coleman, who for several years has been at the head of the public schools in this city, resigned his position here to take up another line of work. Mr. Coleman became interested in a clay manufacturing concern not long ago, and after his resignation moved to Martinsville, Indiana, where this business is located, so as to be near his interests there. Immediately after accepting Mr. Coleman's resignation, the school board elected Mr. Keller for a number of years, Principal of the Brazil High School, and a friend to everyone who knows him, to fill this important position. Ever since Mr. Coleman left the city, which was early in March, Mr. Keller has been acting as both Superintendent and Principal. S1915 ,X A MISS BISHOP MR. REAGAN MISS PICKENS MR.

Cheeks as fresh as a summer rose, Eyes that change like the changing sea, Lips where a smile first comes, then goes, And, Oh! but she makes delicious tea.-Carlyle 1915 'U' Four years ago, to school there came a class, Of Freshman green as grass, but sharp as tacksg We each got lost quite often the first day, And wandered thru the halls in silent fear. Alas! this golden age did not endure, For soon each Freshman grew so very big, His head up in the clouds began to roam. The teachers marveled why we did not learn, And judged that some of us deserved an F. They left us soon or late, those naughty ones, And then alone the plucky ones remained. We sailed across the waves of Algebra, Then passed the Scylla of Geometry. We rode with Caesar thru the Gallic Wars, And fought with tongue the wicked Cataline. We listsned to the speech at Bunker Hillg Wept over the sad fate of .loan d'Arc, And tripped with Milton his fantastic toe, As pilgrims gay to Canterbury rode, And lingered long with Gray in the churchyard Lamb's roasted pig we eagerly devoured. We rose in arms against the Stamp Act, toog And spent a day at Gettysburg with Meade. We disapproved of Henry's many wivesg With Alexander's band we traveled miles. - Class History We girls all thought our day of doom had come When o'er the way we went to cook and sew. The boys began to hammer and to plane, And built the bleachers for the tournament. In every year we've found our part to do. The carnival first opened up our way To show what we could do for B. H. S. A garden gay of old Japan we had, With dainty maids to serve our customers, From cups o'erflowing with teas of many hues. We had a Gallaphone of pretty girls, Who sang the classics of America. Our pop-corn balls delighted many there Who patronized our little Freshman stand. In feats of strength we helped to take the prize. At end of year we had our credits madeg At last we were not Freshman any more, But Sophs who held our heads up in the air. Fall came and with it we returned to, school, With minds made up to do our share in all. ' We did not organize into a class, As was the custom practiced heretofore, But this did not exclude us in the least, From any of the social functions gay. Miss Herr put on the play The Mikado, 1915- In which a number of our class took part, The play dealt with the nobles of Japan, The trials, tribulations, and the joys, That go to make their daily life complete. This play, indeed, was quite a great success. We closed our second year with one big stunt At corner of Meridian and Kruzang All those who went enjoyed it very much, And planned to have more in our Junior year. We met the next September, one and all, And chose the following to be our officers: Odetta Hall, Bill Zeller, and John Fast. To make our Junior year a big success, At once we started planning for our Heats. The first we gave when Hallowe'en was near, And took a hayride there and back again. We planned for one out in the country west, When rain spoiled all our plans, we used the gymg And used our skates to help digest our Beats. We took the Foot-Ball boys to Center Pointg Then journeyed to Knightsville one stormy night. We Soon began to think about the stunt Which we desired to give the Senior class. We turned the gym into a bower of flowers, Wisteria, pink and white, the colors were, And Japanese umbrellas were hung high, With tempting loads of flowers above our heads. The blossoms twined amid the lattice work, Peeped out as is the custom in the spring, And all did think they were in Fairyland. The tables were spread with snowy linen cloths, At each appointed place a candle stood, Which added to the beauty of the scene, The guests assembled in the upper hall, And then The Bachelors' Banquet we did show The cast composed of members of our class, All proved their great ability to act. At end of play we led our guests below, And placed them ready for the coming Heats. As master of toasts Jim Adams served: Throughout the eve some witty talks were giv'n, And toasts from members of the faculty. The eve will be remembered by all there, For everyone thought it a great success. We left for home when came the wee, sma' hours, And thought our Junior year was now complete. Again in fall returned our happy class, And took upon their shoulders dignity. The faculty camc at our beck and call, Deportment list no more was feared by us. The class, the following officers did elect: James Adams, William Zeller and John Fast. Our Junior president gave us an eat, The class turned out as never had before, And planned to have more of them later on. The next was given dovgn on the south side, gl9l5 I Where our fair Helen served us royally. The girls then planned to give a stunt themselves. The lovely home of little Maude they chose. Tho' Senior boys were called away from town, Yet there was one full brave enough to comeg The girls for spite took little Junior lads, And all said they enjoyed themselves Hrst-rate. For the tournament our dogs did their full part, They barked and yelled and did their many pranks. There were three members in the Varsity, Who helped to win the honors for the team. So now comes the beginning of the end. Our class play we are sure will take the town, For the Pa of Mary Jane is something newg We hope that every one will boost it hard. Our Annual, we know, will be the bestg just settle it by glancing at the Staff! We've told you now what we have done while hereg We leave it to the prophets to foretell What we shall do throughout the years to come. ODETTA HALL MARY WOLFE.

Collier was the scene of a very beautiful and interesting affair on Thursday' evening when their daughter, Miss Nelle Jeanne, was united in marriage to the Hon. Clarence -E. Mohr. Promptly at 8:30 o'clock Miss Hazel Rupert took her position at the piano and to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, the sweet voice of Ellen LeMay was heard singing in the distance. As Miss LeMay came into the re- ception room the groom, attended by his best man, David Powell, approached the altar. The groom was followed by the bridesmaid, Miss Mabel Cobk. The bride, leaning on thefarm of her father, came last. They met at the altar where the ceremony was perform- ed by the Rev. Rhoslyn L. Davies. During the ceremony Miss Le- May sweetly sang O Promise Me. The bride was attired in a handsome gown of white satin with an overdress of Oriental lace. She wore a long tulle veil with a cap of lace and orange blossoms. The bridesmaid wore a white satin dress with an overdress of pink chiffon. After the ceremony a reception was held for about one hundred and fifty guests. Mr. and Mrs. Mohr left for an extended trip through the East and will be at home on August 1st, Grand Boulevard, Chicago. Prominent Society Woman Gets Divorce.

Scrub has practically a team of veterans this year and expects to cop the flag again. Among some of his most promis- ing players are Bob Stevenson, who holds down the keystone bag, and Arthur Kessel, the hard- hitting out-fielder. All the fans are for Scrub and his hardy band of warriors. Linen Shower. Miss May Andrews entertained last night with a linen shower for the bride-elect, Miss Elizabeth ,Williams.

Misses Maude Downing and Ferne Drake will leave tomorrow for Oklahoma where they will teach school. Miss Marie West and mother are spending the day in Indian- apolis as guests of Misses Eliza- beth Summers and Nelle McCul- lough who have a large millinery establishment in that city.

Zeller, new minister of the First Methodist Church, will begin his series of Sunday night sermons on next Sundayt evening. Rev. Zeller hrst grad- uated from DePauw and then went to Boston where he studied two years. He then accepted the pulpit of the First Methodist Church at Harmony, Ind. The people of Brazil consider them- selves very fortunate in procuring Rev. Zeller. Contract Taken 1 Mr. James Seybolde Adams, President of the Brazil Chamber of Commerce announced to-day that his firm, the Shattuck Con- struction Co. has taken a contract to completely pave the Old Trails Road through Indiana and Illinois. The work will be started im- mediately. Suffrage Meeting The Suffragettes held a very interesting meeting at their head- quarters last night. Several speeches were made by the differ- ent workers of the suffrage move- ment. They also elected dele- gates to send out to different places to boost for Miss Gaar 'I urner, who is running for Repre- sentative of this district on the Republican ticket in the coming election. The following were elected: Willia Pack, Ethel Logs- don, Nelle Lucas, Lucy Cutshall and Gladys Brown. After the meeting the Suffraget- tes led by Miss Turner and Anna O'Dowd, Mayor of Turner, Ind. marched west on National Ave., carrying large banners which bore the inscription of Votes for Women and Vote for Gaar Turner. At the corner of Meridian and National Ave., a large crowd had gathered and here the parade stopped and Mayor O'Dowd gave a speech telling Miss Turner's platform. The crowd seemed very much impressed by this speech and it seems as though Miss Turner has a fair chance for the election. School opens next week. The enrollment will be larger then ever.

BRAZIL DAILY NEXVS, SEPTEMBER 1, 1925. New Basketball Coach For Brown. Brown College has closed a con- tract with John C. Fast to coach their next year's basketball team. Fast comes well recommended. He has had considerable exper- ience, playing one year of high school ball in Brazil, four years of college ball with Indiana Dentals, and since his graduation from that institution has been coaching a fast semi-pro team in Chicago. By the employment of Fast the Athletic Board of Control hopes to change the usual program of defeats into victories for Brown. Here is Some Bowler. One man has been doing some great bowling at the Elk's alleys this week. This man is Mack Gumm. He has bowled seven- teen games this week with scores over the two-century mark. He broke all records Thursday night when for four games he averaged 294. His games were 300, 296, 292 and 288 for the evening. His average for the week is 286. Noted Speaker Coming Dr. Uzzie Phillips, B. A. P. D. Q. B. C. M., will give his famous lecture, The World in a Nut- shell at the Chautauqua this summer. Dr. Phillip's lecture is said to be very entertaining be- cause of its dry humor. We are sure the people will be pleased to hear Dr. Phillips again as he is well known here, having formerly been pastor of the United Brethern Church of this city. Track Record Lowered ln the I. A. U. track meet held at Harmony last week, Will Pick- ett, running under Harmony University colors, ran the 100 yard dash in 972 seconds. The former record was 93A seconds. This is not the first record broken by a H. U. man. About twenty-five men and women went through here to-day from different localities near here, enroute to eastern countries where they will take up missionary work. Among them were Misses Irene Stinson and Vivian Hughes of this city, who will go to India. They have been studying for several years to be missionaries and de- cided that there was a larger field for their work in India than in any other country. -1915 Teachers Institute The Teachers Institute for the Summer Term was held at Ind- ianapolis yesterday. Two lectures were given after the business hour was over, by Miss Mary Wolfe, teacher of English, at Butler Col- lege on the subject of The Value of the English Course in High School, and by Miss Emma Stewart on the Average Work of a High' School Student.

The Senior Class Pla MARY .lANE'S PA l.lfYlfN years before the opening of the play, Portia Perkins and her two little daughters l.nCile and Mary lane, the latter a babe in arms, has been deserted by her husband, Hiram, a well educated man, and an author whose intellect has developed at the expense of his conscience. She knew the printing business pretty well, as this was Hiram's business, so she hard 'listed old usurer, the oldest, tightest merchant in town. Preston is in love with Portia and tries to get her consent to a divorce from Perkins. She refuses, however, and Gosport knows nothing of her husband. l,ueile is 17 years old now and is in love with Hanett Sheridan, an actor. Star Skinner, .loc-l's son, loves her deeply and in his ignorant, loutish way is jealous of wi' moved her little family to Gosport, lndiana, and opened a printing ofhce. After years of struggle and toil she at last has a news- paper of her own, Wlihe Clarion , and is at present engaged in supporting Rome Preston, a handsome young lawyer, for the nomination for state senator. l-lis opponent is Joel Skinner, a Qi Sheridan. lva VVilcox in turn has set her cap for him. She is the village belle, a very devil, meeting trains amd traveling men and using lots of perfume. Skinner calls on Portia and tries to get her to let up her tight on him. She refuses and he leaves, vowing threats, as Miss Faxon, who is on her was to the city to get the S e styles, calls to ask Portia to joinGosport's Purity League . After ridding herself of her guests Portia is beset by little Mary Jane, asking about her father as she has been teased at school. Portia sends her to bed with an indefinite answer and washes the supper dishes, thinking. Suddenly the door opens and in walks Hiram Perkins, ragged and unkempt She greets him coolly. He answers all her questions jokingly and seems to be having a great time at her expense as he tells of his journey over the world. As the hour grows late she asks his intentions. and is informed that Un the day of the convention Portia prepares to publish a story of Skinner 'sdealings with the Millers on Hancock road which will elect Preston. VVhile she is out getting her business fixed up preparatory to going to press. Preston upsets the form containing the story that 'would elect him and puts the new power press out of commission. Hiram sees his last acts and understands that it was done in order to save Portia from Skin- ner's wrath. Hiram hasn't forgotten his old trade, so putting down his basket of vegetables he sets the story up again just as he has none so she jokingly offers to put him to work in her kitchen under some other name as he alw.vf c ld s k b Portia returns and discovers the press out of commission.

He is not much af- fected and smiles! as they are rushing towards him when Portia, Screaming, stops them, telling that he is her husband! Skinner, out-done, curses her and is knocked down by Hiram.

OW that the three years of our High School life are about over, we feel that the class of 1916 has made itself known and gained for itself a good reputation in all affairs of the school. Our class was large and not only were we strong in members, but were strong in spirit and in our determination to accomplish things and make a name for ourselves. It took this class practically all of its Freshman year to get accustomed to the High School rules and regulations and although those bells mixed us up considerably, we got along very well. In the fall of 1913, we returned strong as Sopuhomores, but owing to the fact that we were not allowed to organize as a class, we were not able to give many social stunts. However, we distinguished ourselves in other ways, having several men on the Track Team. Another year rolled around and we returned as juniors, proud in the fact that we could call ourselves upper-classmen. We entered into the different activities with renewed vigor and were indeed proud when several of our men appeared in the foot- ball squad , ready to give their best for the betterment of B. H. S. athletics. The class was organized at the beginning of the year, electing as its officers: William M. Hutchison, Presidentg Leone D. Decker, Vice-President: Walter Acheson, Secretary: Dorothy K. Kerfoot, Treasurer. The first thing we did was to plan an eat which was given at the homwgg of our president, enjoyed not only by the members of our class, but also by other classmen. It is with a feeling of pleasure and satisfaction that we think of our successful three years, yet with the feeling of regret, we look,forward to our last year when we shall be full-fledged Seniors. r g 'i ' 1 ' Lgomz D. DECKER DOVROTHY K. KERFOOT. -IQIS SCN? SOPHOMORE CLASS Sophomore Class Chronicle UR history as a class began on the morning of September 7, 1913, when we entered Brazil High School, our hair nicely combed, our clothes brushed, and our shoes shined until they were almost as brilliant as the members of the class themselves. After some preliminary instructions from Mr. Keller we ventured a visit to our future class-rooms and teachers. A few got lost but other brilliant ones of our number hit upon the scheme of asking directions ofithe upper class-men. Even then a few wandered astray although we sincerely hope it was no fault of the upper class-men. After a few months we found ourselves and with the exception of a few boys getting ducked our life as Freshmen went smoothly on. ' We came back with a new-found dignity as Sophs in nine- teen fourteen, some boys even daring to don long trousers. Our class organized early, lVIiss Alspaugh taking the part of sponsor. Paul Cutshall was elected President, Josephine Stevenson, Vice- President, Jean Tilley, Secretary and Treasurer, and Paul Hay- ward, Class Reporter. Our first eat was a great success and as it was our first one it deserves special mention. It was held in the Hgymf' one No- vember night. After the guests had assembled anfadvertising contest was held. Then followed peanut races, etc. After this aCarnival was enjoyed in Room 18. Such standard shows as The Magical Toothpicks, The Moving Pictures, The Fortune Teller, Bluebeard?s Butchery, Kryl's Band, and the Flying Bat, were shown. Following the Carnival a luncheon was served. More contests were indulged in, and then favors were distributed from a beautifully decorated Christmas tree by Santa Claus, alias John Currie. The prizes for the con- tests were then awarded and the party broke up, all declaring it a highly successful affair. The next event in our class history was the presentation of our chapel exercise. The first part of this represented a teacher's meeting where the various types of students were dis- cussedg the second the assembly room from half past twelve until one o'clock. About one third of the class membership was in- cluded in the cast of the skit. Our class basketball team showed up well toward the end of the season and succeeded in giving several of the teams the little end of the score. However, this did not happen often or soon enough to influence the choice ofthe class championship. Baseball was chosen in 'place of track this spring, and Seed Smith was elected captain of our class nine and although the material for making a winning team is scarce, Capt. Smith expects every man to do his duty toward winning the school championship. PAUL HAYWARD, '17, 1915. FRESHMAN CLASS Freshman Class History LTHOUGH in school for less than one year the Fresh- man Class has already made itself heard from in several different ways. The class is one of the largest that ever entered Brazil High School, and if the members stay together the class when graduated should break all previous records. When we first entered the High School we had the same difficulty in knowing what to do, as all other classes which have preceded us. However, with a little advice from some of our friends who belonged to the upper classes we were able to get along as well as could be expected. The first noteworthy event in the Freshman history is the reception given by that class for their parents and members of the faculty. The affair was without doubt a huge success, and was the first stunt of the kind ever given by a Freshman Class. The idea of the party was to get acquainted. x Each person present wore a tag with his name on it thus giving everyone an opportunity of knowing who each person was. The next feature of the class which should not be over- looked is the fact that we were runners-up in the inter-class il9l5 ' . basketball series. At one time it looked as if we might: get away with the championship, but the Seniors proved a little too pow- erful for us. We had two players on the Varsity basketball squad. The performance of the Freshies in the famous Athletic Carnival was one of the biggest hits of the evening. We staged a short comic play, showing various scenes in a railway depot. Miss Johnson coached us in this undertaking. The last, but not least important act of the Freshman Class was the chapel exercises given on Wednesday morning, March 31. The entertainment was not performed by the members of the class themselves, but a program was rendered by artists secured from out-of-town. The great number of encores was sufficient proof that the students and visitors were very much pleased with the entertainment. The class was not permitted to organize this year, thus ac- counting forthe scarcity of social functions, but next year the class promises to be one of the most active in school, and will probably make some of the Juniors and Seniors take notice.

The en- tertainment developed some new stars, chief among whom are lvliss Florence Seiders, who took a leading part as Bonnie, the toy shop girl, and Miss Dorothy Kerfoot, as Loosey, the rag doll. lyliss Kerfoot could not have played her part better. Nliss Harriet Leavitt as Fi Fi was the central figure of the play, and featured chorus of the wee little tilts received the heartiest ovation of the evening. The male parts were also well taken. Unfortunately Charles lNIcConnell developed a case of the mumps at the elev- enth hour and was unable to appear, but Mr. Shaw, the director, played the part of 'i'I'he Sandman with credit. His voice and splendid acting met with considerable applause from the audience. William Zeller played the part of the silly and fastidious gentle- . man dollg his acting being very good, while Linnaeus Kidd, as the tin soldier, was natural and apparently at ease in his acting. Carl Jones, as the Man in the Moon, as true as green cheese, was good, and his singing was appreciated by the audience. Paul Cutshall, as Captain Barnacle, a sailor doll, was good, he and Miss Kerfoot going through some extremely funny situations. John Currie and Elbert Watts, 'the clown dolls, and Theodore Andrews, the toy-make-r, were also good. The jumping jacks and Noah's ark animals were represented by a herd of small boys. The China Dolls and the Paper Dolls were both clever.. Their drills were well executed. The Live Letter Blocks by eight young girls was the most difficult and showed much previous work and preparation. The Bridesmaids' dainty dancing act was prettiest of all, and in it Miss Gregg featured by 'her graceful pirouttes and movements. The story of the play is novel. Bonnie, fFlorence Seidersl the toy-maker's iTheodore Andrewsl daughter, goes to sleep in the woodsfand. has awonderful dream, wherein a retired fairy il-Ielen Finchl, appears and leaves as a souvenir some smelling salts, which proved to be quite reviving and wake upall the dolls and toys. Fi Fii fl-Iarriet Leavittl the French doll, worth 33.69, the prettiest and most expensive doll in the shop, is desired both by Lieutenant,-Tin Heart, a soldier doll 'iLinneaus Kiddl and Prince Lolly-pop, iWilliam Zellerl, a gentleman doll, and their efforts to win her love develop a jealousy between them that leads to many funny sitiiatig?m's. The Man in the .Moon fCarl Jonesl gives Fi Fi a thrill byifalling in love with her, and Heeing down the milky way with her to the moon, where they ride and sing together. The duet while on the moon was one of the prettiest numbers in the whole play. Fi Fi is brought back to earth by the Fairy, where she is changed back to a doll until she can learn better sense. The Tin Soldier, however, proves the most faithful of all the suitors, remaining to protect her when he finds that she is only a doll again, and consequently he is re- warded by gaining, Fi Fi as his bride. Their wedding gives op- portunity for the Bridesmaids' dance. This was led by the solo dancer, Miss Susan Gregg. The beautiful wedding procession follows and the Sandman appears and sings all the dolls to sleep. At the end Bonnie Wakes up, to find that she has slept all night in the woods, and that the fairies and Sandman, and all, are only a dream. THE CAST Bonnie . . . .

ATHLETI CS IR HSL Q J L '91 5 S X N N I 2 Q xx N1-J x V A XX Ks Athletic Association T the beginning of the school year, the students were called together as usual, to organize the Athletic Association and to elect officers to aid the coach and promote the Athletics in the High School. At this meeting the following officers were elected to take charge of Athletics financially and otherwise, to-wit: Professor Virgil Cutts, Presidentg Will- iam Hutchison, Vice President: Don Brown, Secretaryg Lin- naeus Kidd, Treasurerg Hugh Lenhart, Student Manager. By the constitution of the Association, Professor Charles P. Keller, together with Professor W. F. Reagan, the coach, became members of this board. Later in the year a new office was created, that of Assistant Student Manager. Frank Kamm was elected to fill this place. Financially, athletics have been a decided success during this year. The membership in the Association has surpassed all prev- ious years. By this alone, one may see that spirit is increasing. Each game has been attended by large crowds, and the rooting of these crowds surpassed that of previous years. The Association came out of the football and basketball seasons with several hun- dred dollars in the treasury. This is a very strong point for ath- letics for in years gone by, at the end of football and basketball sea- sons, the treasury was either empty orgwas in debt. The attestation of eliiciency which this board of control has worked out is shown by the splendid 'condition of the Association at present. Each member of the board has responded to his duties and worked constantly for the good of the organization, thereby winning the support of the student body and they, the students, have been the real cause for the healthy growth of the Athletic Association. -1915 thletic Carnival, MMEDIATELY after Brazil High School agreed to hold the sectional basket-ball tournament, the question of expense was foremost in the minds of the boosters of the tourney. To accomodate nearly a hundred players along with many rooters who came with their respective teams, was realized to be no small task, not to speak of expense. The student body buckled down to the situation, however, and at once arranged for a special meeting of the Athletic Association. At this meeting several suggestions were made as to how the necessary money could be raised, and finally, after a great deal of consideration, it was decided to give an Athletic Carnival. Each class of the school was to put on a vaudeville act of some description, while a performance was to be given by a general chorus, made up of fellows from different classes. The date for the show was set as February, 28, 1915. On the evening of this date, the high school assembly hall was crowd- ed with people anxious to see the much talked of Athletic Carni- val. The first feature of the show was A Garden of Japan , given by members of the Sophomore class, aided by Miss Alspaugh. This act took with the audience. 1915, Coming after this was An American Harem, a little play cleverey acted by members of the Junior class. The cast was well selected and showed remarkable talent. Gentry's Dog and Ponv Show , given by the Seniors, was one of the biggest hits of the evening and the dogs deserve a great deal of credit for their work, because they had to act under various difiiculties. The Freshmen stunt entitled A Scene in a Railway Station was well acted, and showed that much time had been spent in prepreation. George Cupid Fielding performed next, and it is needless to mention the fact that he did his part well. When it comes to hand springs, standing on one's head, etc., George has no equal. The last number on the program was an act given by a gen- eral chorus, made up of the fellows from the various classes. While Harriet Leavitt sang Chinatown , the chorus girls marched about the stage. The show was a success in every way, especially in the way of finance, for which it was originally intended. Nearly a hun- dred dollars was raised and this aided materially in financing the sectional basket-ball tournament. Basketball Tournament NE of the largest undertakings in the history of theB.H.S. Athletic Association was staged here March 56, 1915, when ten high schools of this section of the state repre- sented by over ninety athletes gathered to participate in the sec- tional B. B. tourney. School ended on Friday noon, at the fin- ish of our six weeks tests, and the H. S. building was converted into areception hall within an hour, accommodating our visitors with Gym.privileges, check rooms, candy booths, information bureaus and such conveniences as were necessary to assure our guests a pleasant and enjoyable visit. All this clock like arrangement had been worked out and outlined weeks in advance under the careful and efficient guidance of our Superintendent, Any one attending the naeet and noting the ease and efficiency with which every detail was carried out must realize that the chairman of each committee must have worked diligently and faithfully together with his assistants to bring about these results. The real events started at 2115 when Wiley H. S. run away with Perrysville H. S. and Brazil followed at 3:30 defeating Staunton by the largest score made in the state during either the district or final tournaments. This was especially creditable to B. H. S. from the fact that the mumps crept into the squad one week in advance of the game and stole a guard, and entered again on the night before the opening day and captured our center and free goal thrower, thereby causing us to send five players on the floor who had not practiced a single time together previous to entering the game in which they gave Staunton their unequaled defeat. This shows what five fellows can do who have the spirit and determination. Games followed Friday evening and all day Saturday, bring- ing victory to some and defeat to others. Interest settled early Saturday in Bloomingdale Academy, who came as adark horse, and by their splendid playing were picked for the winners long before entering the final game. They showed good form and excellent stamina by playing four games Saturday, and winning the district championship, which championship was unanimously conceded to them by all who had watched their phenomenal play during the day. The association came out exceptionally well financially due to the fact that the student body responded noblv in furnishing the necessary hospitality which would have been the greatest expense and would have consumed all profits had we have had hotel bills for all the participants. We feel that all the work was justly paid for by the fact that we sent almost a hundred young athletes away with a good word for B. H. S. Let us strive to maintain this standard and do even more for H. S. athletics in our section of the state. ol9I5 YF' V A RSITY FOOTBA LI Q arsity Football gl HE football team was greatly weakened this year by last year's graduation, when every member of the squad grad- uated with the exception of Smith, Ringo, and Captain Lenhart, who were all unable to play this year. Smith and Len- hart were out with injuries, while Ringo was not in school the first semester. Although the team was not able to win a single game last fall football was not a failure as some very good material was de- veloped, and with Smith, Ringo, and Lenhart back in the game next year, Brazil will have a championship team. ' The varsity squad was composed of the following players:- Captain Brown, R. T.g Carr, L. T., Wright, R. G.: Murphy, L. G.: Stevenson, R. E., Beach, L. E., Finley, Q., Hutchison, R. H. B.: Clark, L. H. B.g'Jones, F. B., Wilkins, E., Pickett, .1915 T., Morgan, C., and George Dewey Fielding, mascot. Those who received small B's for playing on the second team were:- Navin, McCullough, Rawley, Muncie, Webster, Mghr, Gumm and Downing. Q f Among the teams met this year are Bloomingdale Academy, Gosport, Robinson, lIlls.l, Danville fIlls.l, -and Wiley and Gar- field High Schools of Terre Haute. This was an exceedingly difficult schedule for an inexperienced team such as we had. Capt. Brown, Pickett, Stevenson, and Beach will be lost by graduation, but there are several old men to fill these places, so that the prospects for next year seem very promising indeed. John Clark, our star half-back and only a Freshmen, was chosen to pilot the team to victory nextsyear. -I . VARSITY BASKETBALL 'Y' Varsity Basketball HIS year's basketball team was one of the best and most successful teams that Brazil has put forth for several years. Although composed of all new men with the exception of Zeller, the team rapidly got into shape and held its own against the strongest teams in this district. Next year's team will not be greatly weakened by gradua- tion as past teams have been. Three of the eight members of the team will graduate, these being, Captain Zeller, Fast and Brown. The squad of 1914-15 was composed of the following players: Capt. Zeller, F3 Clark, F5 Payne, C5 Fast, G, Kidd, Gp Morgan, G3 and Brown, C. Brazil had a hard schedule to play, and proved herself equal to the task by winning seven games out of twelve played. Brazil opened the season with Paris fIlls.l 'at Paris. B. H. S. lost this game by a score of 22-23, but won the return game aftera desperate fight, 35-34. Rockville came next, and the Red and White team experienced very little trouble in annexing both games. The score of the first at Rockville was 35-23, while the second at home was 38-12. Our next opponent was the strong Clinton team to whom Brazil lost the first game, i W 11-33, but who were later defeated by the locals, 26-18. Brazil won and lost in her pair of games with Wiley, the Terre Haute boys winning the first, 40-225 and losing the second, 35-25. The team experienced very little trouble in defeating Clayton at Brazil, 46-20, but lost at Clayton 23-39 on account of injuries and sickness to members of the team. Brazil ended the season with a couple of games with Garfield High School, al formidable athletic rival. Last year Garfield won both games from Brazil but were unable to repeat the act this year. Brazil lest the first at Terre Haute by the score of 32-44, but the tables were turned in the return game and Brazil won by the score of, 38-24. The second team deserves credit for their regularity at prac- tice and their service to the varsity team. The second team played three games, two with Staunton and one with Glenn. They won the first game from Staunton at Brazil by the score of 18-15, but lost the return game, 11-23. They also lost the game with Glenn, 9-20. The members of the secondteam were Capt. Smith, F, Wil- kins, F3 Herrington, F9 Jones, C3 Biehl, G5 Casassa, G, and Downing, G. -I9Ijl SENIOR BASKli'l'lSAl,I C Senior Basketball N the inter-class basketball games this year the Seniors, as usual, were the big noise. An extended series of twenty games for each team was played, .giving all the classes an opportunity of showing their real strength, and in this test the Seniors proved beyond a doubt that their team was the best on the floor. In the first few games the Freshmen showed up very well and it looked for a while as if the Seniors would have to go their hardest in order to win the championship. The turning point came, however, when, the Seniors defeated the Freshmen in a close game and tied the standing. A' victory of the Seniors over the Juniors, while the Freshmen were losing to the Sopho- mores, put the upper-classmen in the lead from which they could never be ousted. The loss -of Clark and Morgan of the Freshmen, to the varsity team seemed to take t-he whole -life outcof the squad. The Seniors, however, were handicapped to a greater 'extent by the loss of Fast, Zeller and Brown to the varsity, but -were for- tunate enough to have such material as iMcCullough, Beach, Kessel, Bayer, Jones, Pickett, Stevenson and McGranahan in reserve. Several of these players developed into real stars.. After the close of the series of inter-class games,-'the Seniors immediately issued- a challenge to the Faculty for a game, and the latter bunch, expecting something 'e'soft accepted with much confidence. Ina game characterized by fast 'play, the Seniors accomplished something that has only, once befglre been done, that is, defeated a-Faculty team. ,This victoryamgde a fit- ting conclusion to the Senior basketball season. S s el9lj ' ix VARSITY BASEBALL 19: 5 Varsity Baseball HIS season marks the renewal of the great national game in B. H. S. For two years now track has held sway, but at a meeting ofthe spring athletes early in the semester, it -was put before the meeting to vote on whether' we would have track or baseball, and it was unanimously decided to take up the national sport. With this decision in favor of baseball, practice was called and apromising squad has turned out to try for the team. If nothing interferes further than is evident at the present, by the middle ofthe season B. H. S. should be represented by a fast, aggressive ballfteam, which will hold the red and white in the front rank of athletics, theonly position we are satisfied to occupy. A class tournament started the season, and created consid- erable interest. The preliminaries brought: victory to the Fresh- men and Seniors, and defeat to the Sophomores and Juniors. In the final game played between the winners of thg preliminaries the Seniors defeated the Freshman, 6-1, in a well played game. The season proper, opened April 17, when B. H, S. took the opening game from Glenn H. S. by a large score. And as above stated, with the playing material we have, in proper shape, not a single game should be lost this season. ' The only thing that caused any hesitating on resuming this branch of athletics was the .expense which, with the best of man- agement, is much greater than in any other line of athletics. Now since the Athletic Association has decided on baseball, and agreed to finance the sport, it is the duty of the members, players, and students to help in every way to make a successful season of our new sport.

DICBATING CLK' B . Debating Club NE of the new departments of our High School organi- zations is the Debating Club. This Club was organ- iied at the beginning of the last semester of the year with the following officers: President, Arthur Kessel, Secretary and Treasurer, Gaar Turner. . The Club now has a membership of about fifty. Anyone who desires can become a member by enrolling his name with the secretary. The purpose of this organization is to foster easy and effi- cient public speaking, to aid in the investigation and study of public events, to encourage proficiency in collateral reading, and to stimulate a love for the art of accurate thinking. The Debating Club of this year will form the nucleus for a better plan next year. It is the intention of those who have it in charge to inaugurate a system of inter-school debates for next year and to provide for an oratoricalitournament of the High Schools of this district. So far four debates have been held this year, A all of which have been before the assembly. The merit of these debates are prophetic of good things for next year. The questions in each of these with no exception were well handled and stirred up a good interest in this work. Q Another feature added to this department was that of dis- cussion as distinguished from straightdebate. This proved to be a fine training in organizing and arranging materials for speeches on short notice. ' Q . With the start made this year we hope to make this one of the most interesting features of ourschool life next year. The work is accredited to the .department of History and Prof. E. M. Muncie has had imm-ediate charge and direction of all the plans for the year. i A' ' 1915. h Domestic Science and Manual Training -4 HE year of 1915 maiiks the introduction of two new branches of work into the Brazil High School, namely, Domestic Science and Manual Training. Indiana passed a law, compelling all High Schools in the state who wished to hold their commission, to teach these two subjects. When Brazil heard of this, the authorities immediately set about to arrange for the teaching of these studies. The first problem was to find a place where the classes could be held, and this was solved by the pur- chase ofthe old York home, in which place all classes of the Domestic Science Department are held. The Manual Training Department occupies one of the rooms in the basement of the High School building. ' Miss Pickens, with Miss Kidd as her assistant, was selected to take charge of Domestic Science, while Mr. Hicks was chosen as the Manual Training teacher. This year, only the Seniors and Freshmen could be accommodated in the various classes, owing to alimited amount of room, but in this way every student in the High School at the time of the introduction of these two new courses will have had an opportunity of securing admission to one of them before he graduates. The work of the girls consists in instruction and practice in cooking and sewing chiefly, while that of the boys consists in the making of various objects, such as chairs, benches, etc., and at the sarne time the boys gain an idea of how the various tools can most successfully be handled. These branches of work have proven very successful, indeed, this year, and give promise of being even more so next year, when the students become a little better acquainted with their work. The instruction in both of these departments has been made as practical as possible. This can be seen from the fact that on several different occasions the girls prepared meals for the ath- letic teams, made candy to be sold at various school functions, and such things as these. The boys in the Manual Training De- partment constructed the bleachers in the High School gym- nasium which were used during the basketball tournament here. Besides this, they have made other useful articles which have been used to advantage about the school. It is hoped that before long we will have more space to give to these studies, and when this comes about the work can be carried on more extensive than ever. The accompanying pictures show the Manual Training and Domestic Science classes at work. 1915- MANUAL TRAINING CLASS DUNlPQS'l'lC SCIENCE SEXVING CLASS IJONIHSTIC SCIENCE COOKING CIASS 1 f?5?f 4 mx lfffp 'X g' Z0?Q?iETwwW fw, ,f,f,ff v , 1 Qpaf 1 1942 ,.4LJ+,.n5f 'X j H uuwn mwuwk.1LLl'l!'ll1!Inll'kN1l1lhdH1llfilFiKF am- 2 an 9 lla., 4, ff, ,f -11 R qs W ZWf1 L A A 9 4' J , 1, I fx f, f G Q , X , ll ., , VL ho , ff X .97 'f f 1 1 I U ' H 1 ZH! , 4, 1f1 .m ' 2 1: 2 2 E fl E: I .

Jack was one of those class of humans called street-urchins in New York. His food for the most part was made up from choice bits from the garbage cans or fruits gleaned from fruit stands when the owner incautiously turned his back. His hotel was established on the wharves in the warmest and softest place to be found, which often was not more than a space between two cotton bales. Jack's mother had died several years before, leaving him to shift for himself, which he had succeeded in doing without any outside help. Jack's long experience in the street had made him an adept at dodging drays, taxicabs, and street cars and so with full confi- dence in his own powers he one day essayed to cross the street in front of a speeding electric coupe. When directly in its path a worn shoe-string snapped, was entangled in his other shoe and Jack suddenly measured his length on the asphalt. Somewhat stunned he staggered to his feet and tried to get out of the electric's way, but he was an instant too late, for the fender of the car struck him a blow in the side which knocked him once more to the street with such force that he lost con- sciousness. CHAPTER II. Only a broken rib and no internal injuries, madam, Jack heard a voice saying as he slowly opened his eyes. He felt his chest and side swathed in bandages and a dull ache in his side. He turned his head and found he was in a white room on a cot presumably in a hospital. He found the owner of the voice to be a pleasant faced doctor and the other occupant a middle aged lady with every indication of wealth about her person. The doctor, noting Jael-t's returning consciousness told the lady of that fact. Instantly she was on her knees at Jack's bed- side and in the next five minutes more kind words were addressed to Jack than he had probably ever 'heard before, The doctor quietly withdrew, promising to have Jack removed to the lady's home as soon as he could stand the change. ' Half an hour later the Lady , as .lack had already begun to call her, left the room, upon the nurse telling ,her that .lack should be kept quiet, leaving jack's mind in a somewhat disor- dered state, owing to the sudden and entirely unlooked for reve- lation that he was to live with the Lady in a house when he 'iwould have ever so many toys and nice tihings to eat and wear. CHAPTER III. A week later Jack was removed to the Lady's home. He found it to be a Hhumdinger ofa house in de swellest part o' towt1 ,as he afterwards described it to his friends. He was carried to a large, beautiful and airy bedroom on the second fioor, and after the hospital attendants had been dis- missed by the Lady she introduced him to his future valet, Mr. Atkins, a middle aged Englishman, his nurse, Miss Newton, fresh from a training school, and his tutor, Mr. Blainton, a young man of about thirty. Jack got along very well with his , servants forthe first week which he spent in bed. He did not mind the nurse petting IIQIS :Xa him a little, he silently endured it for she was rather pretty, but when it came to Atkins and Blainton-ugh. His rib knitted 'well and he was able to be on his feet at the end of the third week. The first clash between Jack's former habits and his present surroundings came at this time when Atkins attempted to dress him. Atkins picked up the beautiful suit laid out for Jack and was about to put it on him when .lack divined his intentions and snatched it from the astonished Englishman and drew it on him- self. The valet not discouraged by this rebuff attempted to tie jack's tie and was again repulsed and Jack, not knowing the in- tricacies of a four in hand, threw the tie back into place. Atkins picked up Jack's shoes and was about to put them on him when Jack's temper broke. Beat it, he cried, I guess I am able to dress myself an' if I want anymore of your help I'll lit ye know . Atkins, not wholly comprehending Jack's words but catching his meaning retired in good order and told his troubles to the Lady. E spoke to me sumpun 'orrible 'e did , said At- kins, with the result thatlack was told 'by the Lady that Hall good little boys let their valets dress them. Thereafter Jack submitted but with not the best of grace. Jack's tutor had frequent trouble with him and complained to the Lady of Hhis awful slang , whereupon .lack was told by her that good little boys obeyed their tutors and did not speak slang. Thereafter Jack abstained from slang to the best of his ability, but he still thought in his old time street vernacular and it would break through in spite of him when he was excited. CHAPTER IV. Two months had passed and it was August. The novelty had worn off of Jack's new life and he had begun to yearn for the old time struggle for existence. The more he thought of the old life the more he desired it. I-Ie did not enjoy food which he did not have to employ his wits to obtain, and found no rest in the great, feathery, soft bed when he had been accustomed to hard planks. His tutor was inexorable when it came to learning latin or poetry, his nurse required everything about him to be sterilized and would not allow him to drink from public fountains: his valet would not allow him to sit down in any dirty or dusty place for fear of ruining his clothes. Under these conditions it was no wonder that Jack began to yearn for the old life of freedom and liberty although hardships would come with it. CHAPTER V. Jack and Mr. Blainton, his tutor, were walking about Cen- tral Park one afternoon when Mr. Blainton espied an old ac- quaintance and was soon engrossed in conversation with him. Jack, in the meanwhile, saw a horizontal bar nearby and was soon occupying himself with various stunts. In the midst of these he was interrupted by a soft, drawling voice, saying, Little boy, won't you let me have the bar now, you have been playing for some time. Turning around Jack saw a very portly boy about a quarter of a head taller than himself. Well, Fatty, this bar might take some beef off of you, but I think that one over there would do just as well, said Jack, again turning to the bar. An angry red sulfused itself over the fat boy's face, Do you know who I am? he cried. Naw, I don't know who you are, and I don't care. I am Percival Conrad Meiston and you'd better let me have that bar. Iack recognized the name .as belonging to one of lhe richest men in New York, but not daunted in the least, he replied, in a teasing tone, Well, Percy, you aint gonna get this bar, so toddle back to yer nurse. Percival was infuriated by Jack's defiance of him, it being an entirely new thing for him to be denied anything. He, 1915 '6- therefore, rather unwisely, pulled Jack from the bar. Now de- spite .lack's slight, wiry frame, he had engaged in many pugilistic combats with such success that he had earned quite a reputation in his former neighborhood. Percival's weight and position gave him a momentary ad- vantage, but this did not last long before Jack's fierce onslaught. Five minutes later Mr. Blainton, attracted by Percy's cries ran to the spot and found Percival Conrad Meiston prone in the dust, with Jack astride of him, lustily exercising his fist on his bulky opponent's face and body. Why, John, what do you mean treating poor little Percival Meiston that way, began Mr. Blainton, pulling Jack away, however, not until Jack had vigorously planted his fist in Percy's left eye. What do I mean? I mean he'd better let me alone after this, that's what I mean. Just then Percy's governess came running up, and seeing Percy's torn clothes, his rapidly swelling eye, and hearing his rather twisted explanation that he wasn't doin' a thing when he jumped on me, turned about in wrath and led Percy away de- claring that Mrs. Meiston should hear of it. CHAPTER VI. Upon Mr. Blainton's and Jackls arrival home, jack removed all trace of his conflict. Coming downstairs he heard the tele- phone bell ring and the maid answering it. The maid then called the Lady to the telephone. Bet that's Percy's ma, thot Jack. He heard the follow- ing conversation between Mrs. Meiston and the Lady as she picked up the receiver. Hello, Mrs. Meiston, you wished to speak with me aboutlack. What's that? Hurt Percy! I can't HIQIS believe it. Why did he do it? For no cause at all? Why, .lack wouldn't do that. Yes, I picked him up off the street, but for all that, I did not think he would harm poor, innocent little Percy. I suppose I shall have to punish him then, if Percy of- fered no provocation whatever to him, as he says. Jack clenched his fist as he heard the Lady hang up and it would not have been well for Percival Conrad Meiston had he been there at that moment. ' Jack thot rapidly. The Lady would not believe him if he told her Percy was to blame for she would take his earlier surroundings into consideration and these were decidedly against much moral instructions. And she would punish him for defend- ing his rights. Well, he guessed not. Not that he loved the Lady any the less, but he loved his rights and liberty more. With Jack to think was tohact, so he hastily scrawled a note to the Lady, setting forth his reasons for leaving, and left it in a conspicuous place. He then slipped quietly out the door, leaving behind him a life of luxury and ease, while before him stood a life of continuous struggle for existence. CHAPTER VII. That night Jack lay huddled between two cotton bales, on the wharves under the brightly twinkling stars. Strange to say, a peace pervaded his soul which for a long time he had not felt. His body was bruised by a number of fistic encounters with which he re-established his leadership over de gang and his muscles were sore from the exercise from which he had been forced to abstain so long. Finally he dropped off into a dreamless sleep broken only when he had to change his sleeping quarters upon the urgent request of the night watchman. .mliuh The Unly Way Cut H, dear, I wish I wasn't rich, then I could at least do some things that I wanted to! Aunt Charlotte wants me to act dignified and heartily approve of all she says and does. Oh, I just hate this place! Won't something happen to break this awful monotony? What's that? .lust the maid, I suppose, to dress me for dinner. I hate the very sight of that dining room door, but Imust straighten up, I will shock poor Auntie to death. Come in, Julia! Has Madame sent my dress? I suppose it is rather pretty but I simply cant wear it this evening. I'll tell you, I'll wear that white dress, the little plain one you knowg per- haps. if I wear that one, De Wilks won't think I've got so much money after all and he won't propose for the tenth time. I don't want that Hbag o' money and I don't see what he wants to- Oh well, it's the way with all of them, I guess. But don't tell Aunt I said that, please. I won't wear any jewels this evening but I will go down into the garden and get one of those beautiful pink roses. No, I must go! The dew can't hurt my dress, I'll hurry. Rob Moore! Where on earth did you come from, I-I thought you were-were away out West? You scared me so I couldn't scream, but then I didn't want to because, well because Aunt Charlotte is so nervous you know, and she would think that I was being kidnapped . Poor Auntie! She thinks I'm such a horrid girl and O Rob! I just can't help it, I've tried ever so hard since we were playmates to be satisfied and enjoy every penny of my allowance, but I can't. No, I don't want your sympathy, so don't waste your time sympathizing with me, 'I won't have it! Youcan improve your time, however, by thinking of a way out of it. Then you do know a way? Well, tell me, and don't stand there looking at me, I'll try anything, anything, I tell you! Well, why? I don't see why you won't tell me, you always used to tell me everything, you know I'd pretend it was my own scheme and you won't be mixed up in it. How have I made your telling me impossible? I sup- pose I shouldn't have said anything about-Oh, tell me anyhow, please Bobby, I'll promise to turn around and I won't say a word or look at you once till you are through. I can't, Rob! I-I, good-night! Please don't let Aunt Charlotte know this. Julia, fasten this rose on me, quick! Am I late? What will Aunt say? Is that old umiser here yet? Something fright- ened me out there in the-in the garden and I ran till I'm-I'm all out of breath. There, that looks good enough for anybody, and I don't care if anyone likes it or not, I'm tired of doing every- thing some one else's way. I'll just gradually adopt ways of my own. Good evening, Mr. De Wilks. Oh, you do! And what ifI should object? You shall continue to call me Miss Tremont, understand? I dont mean to be rude, but then you mustn't be- Yes, Iwould enjoy it, I know. I always did adore Mlle. Pometti, she has a way all her own that you can't help admiring, especially if you-Oh, nothing! I just admire her, that's all. julia, bring my coat and pink veil. Wasn't she perfectly grand, but let's go straight home, I can't possibly eat a thing,-no, I want to go home! I never was so glad to get into this horrid car. I must tell you no for the very last timeg I dont see why you always persist in spoiling my good times with you by your old proposals , as you say. And you must remember thatI had a birthday just yesterday, no, I didn't tell you because you would have spoiled my plans, I won't tell you that, either, I like to have secrets myself, once in a while. Yes, I was twenty, and I am going to take some things entirely in my own hands, you don't need to act shocked, and I am to 1915. blame , if you insist, for this appearance tonight. I don't care if you don't like it, I know someone-Oh well, can't you see that it is impossible? Perhaps you will some day find,-here we are at home, you don't need to get out, I'm tired and I'll just run on ing I'm sorry, but I see no other way. Good-bye. You may go, Julia, I wish to be alone. Tell Auntie I'm in. Goodnight! I'm not a bit sleepy but I am hungry. I might as well have gone with that man to supper. Ican't see why Aunt Charlotte insists that that old miser should marry me, when she says that my future happiness depends upon my present manner of living . I can't tell her all my wishes and worries , and I don't like to talk to Julia, besides she has been with Aunt so long that she might tell on me. I've nothing to talk to except the stars, and sometimes they refuse to come out. Oh, maybe Rob is going to be home all the rest of the summer, I hope he does, we used to have such good times together. I believe I see some one-wonder who it is? I'm going to see, I know it would scare Aunt Charlotte, but I don't carey if I'm quiet she won't know it. Anyway, I'm not afraid, that moon is so bright and it really does look like Rob Moore. Oh, I know its Rob, but I mustn't let him see me, I'll just hide behind this row of shrubs and he will never know I'm here. I wonder why he is out here so late? Poor Rob! He hasn't been home for so long, and he loves these beautiful flowers. I'll not spoil his good time so I had better watch for a chance to run back to the house. Oh Rob, I didn't want you to see me, I knew I would end the pleasure you were getting from this garden andI was just waiting until you would turn around then I would run away. I mustn't, because Auntie might find out I was out here and it would only add to her worry. I will listen to you for just a few minutes, but remember we can't have one of our good old talks we used to have. Do you like it? That De Wilks didn't seem to like it all, anyway I'm glad. I knew you would like it. I can't do it, Rob, for one reason only, and that is, it would be too hard on Aunt. I didn't mean to do anything to hurt her pride, I just wanted to gradually exercise my will power. I can't say no to you though and send you away. You knowI always did like you and I don't want to lose your friendship, but you see it can't be anything more. Aunt Charlotte Wants a man with plenty of money to marry me and in order to better hold me to it she has forbidden that I learn anything that resembles work. Well, I have fooled her as far as cooking goes, she doesn't know that I go down the garden walk, out the gate and around the wall, only to come in the back way to that grand kitchen, where Dinah lets me help her get dinner. I keep May Lily watching the door so that Aunt Charlotte won't see me in there if she should happen to come in to order something else for dinner. Whenever she goes calling I bribe Esther for the dusting and sometimes I get to sweep the porches and the garden walk, isn't that great? I hope Auntie doesn't find it out, it would nearly break her heart. I simply can't marry a man with money and I won't-that's all. Oh Rob, I might have known it. You always did help me out, but I'm a baby for ever telling you because you know that Aunt Charlotte would never listen to a word like that from you. lWhy did I ever say anything to him, matters are only worse, and I'll have to get out of it myself, butl do think lots of Rob, Ieven think--I-J What did ,you say, Rob? I thought I heard some one. There's the 12:53 train, I must go in, what would Auntie say? Goodnight Bobby, Yes, I'll try to, for your sake, you have been so good to me,-never mind Rob. Goodnight-good- morning, I mean. Alright! I'll be up in a minute. Bring my breakfast up, this morning, I'll not go down. lThe truth is, I can't face Aunt Charlotte, she'd be sure to detect something dreadful on my mind and wouldn't let me-I Thank you, Julia. Set it there, I don't want much. Please don't tell Auntie I didn't eat anything, she would send for old Dr. Ward, and I don't need any medicine, A il9I5. fh its-Get my plainest street dress and black sailor, I'm going shop- ping this morning. I hope Aunt Charlotte doesn't see me go, she would be shocked at this attire. I'm tired of doing just ex- actly as she says. There comes Hawkins with my mail. Get it quick, Julia! I must be off before Auntie goes down to pick the roses. Oh,-What's this? It's from Bobby: Virginia: I know a good plan. Meet me at the Northeast corner of Central Square at 10:45. Rob. Goodbye, Julia. Please tell Aunt Charlotte not to wait luncheon, but I'll be back for dinner. Why Rob, its only 10:20. Have you been here long? You must want to see me bad. I've just got a litte shopping to dog it won't take me long. Ijust felt it in my old bones as Dinah says, that you wanted me to do something and I told Julial wouldn't be back for lunch. I didn't want to, I like a change once in a while and I'm sick of being a regular Paris Doll . Flatterer, what's your brilliant idea? That's right, we can't stand here. What will poor Aunt Charlotte do? I can't, Bobby, but don't look so distressed, it isn't my fault. I want to ever so bad, but you see-Oh yes, I really want to, then you did mean what you said? Well, I'll do whatever you want me to do, if you will do one thing for meg go back home with me and tell Aunt Char- lotte. If she consents we will be married right away. Remem- ber where we are, Rob. Why doesn't he hurry? I've ruined these perfectly new gloves on these rose bushes. I just know poor old Auntie will say no and give the poor boy a lecture that will wither him. She chose her life and I'm old enough to know what I want and for listening to all of Aunt Charlotte's speeches I ought to know what's best for me. I'll live by myself with a cat and a parrot before I will marry a bag o' money . Oh, here they come! Why are they so slow? Forgive me Auntie, I always thought you were so hard on me, now I know that everything was for my good. I'm really glad that it happened. I always knew that be wasn't honest with so much money. When did they catch him? Well, its good enough for him. I'm only .glad I wouldn't listen to him. I don't want to leave this dear old place and you Auntie, but you see Bobby--Oh yes, I always call him that. That's my old name for him, ever since we played in the shade of that pear tree. I was just going to say that Bobby has a-a little cottage on Wal- nut Hill. It's the dearest little place. Honeysuckles are vining all over the coziest little veranda. I'm so excited over it that I just can't describe it. We went around past the house on our way up here. Bobby and I have decided to be married this evening,-Oh yes, we must Auntie, I just can't wait another day. I don,t want any wedding dress. I'm going to have julia to send the dress I had on last night, down to be freshened and I don't want any Flowers except these beautiful roses here in our own garden where Bobby and I have grown up together. And the ceremony is to be out here in the moonlight, in the most beautiful spot on earth. Rob says that Rev. Marten will marry us. You see to the guests and remember, only Rob's mother, dear old Mrs. Strong, you, of course, and the servants. I wish Rob's father could have lived to see his wish fulfilled. I mustn't stay out here any longer, dont forget the wedding's to be at 7:00, the moon will be bright- est then. Bobby, you must go on back to the office, don't waste any of your precious moments. You're not? Don't you have to go back? How grand! But then, Ijust can't stay out here another minute, I've got so much to see to, and it's nearly luncheon time. I'm not going to ask you to stay, either. Why the evening dew would be falling before we knew it. You'll just have to be con- tent with watching me from your window whenever I happen to 1915, be out of the house, and that will be only when I get the rosesl will wear tonight. I mustn't say another word, good-bye dear, till this-evening. Remember at 7:00. Isn't that moon beautiful? I feel as if I had planned this for months instead of hours. Isn't it nearly seven? Oh, I'm not nervous. I know I look' better than I would have if I had spent a fortune on a new gown, and I certainly feel a lot better. Come on, Julia. You'll have to lead me down the stairs, I know I'l1 fall when I see Aunt Charlotte and Rob waiting down there for me. Won't the girls be surprised when they hear about this? Rob, this is the most beautiful evening imaginable! Don't crush these lovely flowers, Bobby, you'll have to get me some more and we haven't time now, so do be careful.

Mr. Carmack is slender and tall And generally has a word for all, He is just as strict as he is high, And is very fond of a bright green tie. Miss Vita Finley is loving and kind, And if she scolds we never mind, For she is just like a girl so sweet, The kind that all are anxious to meet. The adorable, delightful Miss Wood comes next, She is kind and sweet, and never gets vexed, To all her pupils who love her dearly, She always smiles so sweet and cheerily. Like a star shining bright and fair, Is Miss DeBolt with her nut-brown hairy Her ability in art is exceedingly clever, And she is sunshiny in all kinds of weather. Miss Georgette Herr can sing many a song And is happy and cheerful the whole day long, She is good to all, and I'm sure is kind, And a pleasanter person you've vet to find. Mr. Reagan is an amiable man, And play basketball? He surely can! He is kind to all, and I'm sure you'll agree, When I say he is, as good as can be. To meet lVIiss Eaton gives us a thrill, For she has the voice of the whip-poor-willg You think you're in heaven when she looks at you With her bright, loving eyes, of the sky's own blue. 0 Mr. Muncie is so big and strong, And is as good as the day is long, He's as amiable as he can be, .

Mr. Virgil Cutts is compassionate most all the time And wears a smile which is sublime: He is liked by all, who know him well, And they, his praises sing and tell.

When they think of the talk which will be made, Of the stale old jokes, long laid in the shade, Of the various things which make up the speech, Instead of smiling they want to screech. For they must laugh, tho' they think it's bum, And they must appear to think it's fun, To hear the jokes which they've heard before, As they hope they won't hear them any more. For thirty long minutes fmore or lessl They squirm around and we can guess Their happiness, as the speaker sighs And says, That's all, How time Hies ! Then truly, each one's heart is glad, No face in the Faculty looks sad: Each one smiles as they go thru the door Hoping to meet that speaker no more. RUBY L.
