K. Farnsworth THE HISTORY CF THE WIZARD BacH in 1907, the San Pablo Avenue School, or the Pioneer School as it was called, had a magazine named THE VOLUNTEER. The next year, the school was renamed the Franklin Lower High School. This was the beginning of the popular junior high school plan and Berkeley has the distinction of being the first city to reorganize its schools on the six, three, three , time allotment for the grades, first through twelfth. Hr. James T. Preston was the principal of the Franklin Lower High School, and our own Miss Santos was one of the pupils. In 1916, the present plant of the Burbank Junior High School was built. March 23, 1916, was Moving Day for Mr. Preston, part of the Franklin faculty and the children in the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. The first WIZARD was published May, 1916 and contained just sixteen small printed pages. The name was selected to honor Mr. Luther Burbank, the plant wizard. The first mimeographed WIZARD was made December, 1917. Small sheets of blue paper with a darker blue cover, were used. The foreword was: The present WIZARD is a chronicle of the school life for the term ending December 1917. The cover de- sign, the various articles written, the typing, the stenciling, and printing were all done by students of the school. This is the paper ' s excuse for being. We have grown since our first edition, but we have never changed our idea that the book should be an expression of pu- pil activity: that the work of all departments should integrate. Hence we find the composition work, the art, the typing, the stenciling and the mimeographing are all the work of the pupils. Our latest achievement has been the introduction of amateur photography, that work also being done by a group of pupils known as The Snap Club. The budget for the WIZARD depends upon subscription sales collected before the work on the books begins. The only ex- pense to the school is for stencils and ink for the mimeograph. English teachers have alternated being in charge of the literary content of the book. At present, it is thought desir- able for an English teacher to keep the literary editorship for two consecutive terms, beginning with the spring semester. The art teachers take turn about in supervising the drawings. The typing teacher has change of the mechanical details.

Tomsen WASHINGTON Why is it we ' re still celebrating Washington ' s birthday after two hundred years have passed? Why didn ' t we foiget him soon after he died? The reason is: Washington was a good, true man — the kind of man our country needs more of. He did things for his country, did them without delay. He is one man who will always live in cur hearts as well as our memories. There are very few men equal to Washington, but if we children live lives half as good as Washington ' s, our nation will be proud of us, too. — Lorraine Schott H7y CONDUCT Do you behave as you should on every occasion, at school as well as at any other yjlace? At school your conduct should be such that the rest of the school may be proud of you. If a few people are disorderly it spoils the reputation of the whole school. People form an opinion of you by the way you control yourself. You should never speak so loudly that you disturb others. The problem of self control is one which only yourself can remedy. Try hard to set a good example and not lower other people ' s opinion of you or your school. — Sis a Schlafke H9y ' TRUE COURAGE The WIZARD class just received an editorial from the Bur- bank Junior High School in Houston, Texas. Their paper is called the WIZARD, too. ' A statement from one of the editori- als was, Anyone can do wrong but it takes courage to do right. If you should go home and find seme small article ly- ing in front of your house what would you do? Temptation is a great thing. You might become attached to this article immedi- ately. Of course you would not like to give it up. It would be easy to keep it, and it might make you happy because you found it; but think of the person who lost it. It might have been very valuable to him and to you it is only an eyecatching trinket. Why not get up courage enough to give it to the ‘per- son, or find means by which to give it to him? You can do well without it. If you start keeping small things you find you may end keening large and very valuable things. Don ' t start wrong practices. Have you true courage? — Jeanne Campbell L9z ' THE VALUE OF WISDOM The price of wisdom is above rubies: a statement to be found in the Bible, Job XXVIII:18, is very true. One would rather have wisdom than any ruby in the world. Why? Because wisdom is not only worth more mentally, but it is worth more than its weight in gold. If you had the rubies and lacked the wisdom you would soon lose all and have nothing. So make use of your school education; learn, work to learn; then someday you will realize what your education has, or would have, done had you applied your whole mind and thought to it. — Dorothy Conrad H9z ' SELF CONTROL Self control makes you stronger, more able to face facts as they are, and it makes you happier in many ways. You can gain self control if you try and work hard at it. If you are weak and give in at every little thing you lack self control. Do you lack self control? — Irma Nemo H8y THE SILVER B Upon entering Burbank many of us say, Why work for the Silver ' B 1 now? The time we receive it is yet three years away. True; but do you ever think that upon entering Burbank that we are either forming or not forming the foundation which is needed to obtain the Silver ’B ? We advance until we have reached the ninth grade, and then we finally realize that if we are to receive that B we had better work. At that time it is too late, and we are just trying to get something we know we don ' t deserve. If we want the B we should work for it so we will be able to say honestly that we earned it, — Frank Veils H8v ' William Anagnos Harold Bergeron Maxwell Booth Paul Clio Winston Churchill Ransom Drisdale Laila Kesti Miye Kojaku Ruth ICroll Bernard LiebEcher David Lowe Mildred Royeton Katie Santos Elsa Schlafke Lucile Wilson Vincent Accurso Kenchi Akagi Pauline Allwein Charlotte Anderson Ethel Anderson Virginia Arcieri Emma Berndt Paul Bertlin Emil Bonkofsky Philip Christiana Robert Christopher Anthony Cianciarulo Edna Collins Dorothy Conrad Howard Corley Virginia Corso James Cosenza Ursula Donohue Cleorge Donovan George Duesdieker Teddy Dundas John Encalada Joseph Ferreira David Folliard Lillian Fox Nancy Geraci Frank Gimbel Jeanette Glandon Olive Gray Maxine Hamilton Vernon Hansen Robert Hernandez Florence Hoeth Joseph Hogan Arnold Holmes Theda Humphrey Dale Ingham Gerald Johnson Lester Johnson Geneva Johnston Joe Kajfez Miland Kappadahl John Lake Elmer Larsen Muriel LeStrange Robert Lindberg Leonard Lindstrom Margaret Lucy Anna Luna M ' elma Luoma Claire Mahler Dorothy Marlowe Marion McWalters Grace Medes Alvin Mello Frank Mendes George Mroczko Robert Murden AN ' illiani Murphy William Napoli Elve Nyland George Peterson Marguerite Porter Anna Poyry Evelyn Ramos William Relnnus Anthony Iiiggio Jean Sale Gilberto Segura Edward Shafer Jean Shirley Joseph Silva Julie Siren Helen Skoverski Max Steiner William Swift Patricia Szopieray Paul Szopieray Reynold Thompson Edith Torrey Clifford Tracy Lucille Verdon Edy the Vetter Joseph Viale Claire Weidinger Bessie White Daniel Wilkman Helen Withrow Mabel Young Pasqual Zulaica crx3 WASHINGTON ' S LIFE Washington was Lorn February 22, 1732. All through his life he had a superb physique and has been called by nearly everyone the Father of His Country, a title that fits him perfectly. He first came to notice at the age of sixteen. He went on a trip into the wilds of Virginia with Lord Fairfax, who was of great prominence and had a decided influence on Wash- ington. All through the trip Lord Fairfax noticed the cool- ness with which Washington faced all dangers that arose. Five, and six years passed; and George was twenty-two. He was given the task of keeping the French from encroaching too far into Virginia. His first real trial came when he met the French at the Great Meadows in a skirmish that caused no little comment. It showed that Washington still had to learn much concerning war matters. For the next fifteen years Washington took little or no active part in public life; but when the trouble with England broke out, Washington watched with no little apprehension, the things that were happening. When Congress asked him to be Co..r mander- in- Chief of the army he accepted; and all through the strife he carried the brunt of most everythin;- with his head up and like a true Father of His Country . Soon after the Revolution he was elected first President of the United States and because of his superb traits of hones- ty, fidelity, courage, and righteous judgment we shall forever remember this rare kind of hero who led our country to freedom. Washington returned to Mt, Vernon in 17S7. He lived about two peaceful years with the people he had loved so well. In 1799 he became severely ill and lay in bed in pain. Some- time before he died he said that he couldn ' t ' .Live long. He also said that he was not afraid to go because he had done his share in the world. A little later he said he felt himself going. He thanked his family who were beside him for their kind attention. He died on December 31, 1799, — the last day of the eighteenth century. He was buried in the family vault so that Martha Washington could see his grave from her window. — Max Booth H9y ' , Roy Saarni K3y ' , Phyllis Helston H7y ' My policy has been to cultivate peace with all men. True friendship is a plant of slow growth. WASHINGTON ' S PHYSICAL APPEARANCE Washington was six feet two inches in his stockine feet. His hips were not small, although his waistline was. He was an erect man, out slightly sloping in the shoulders. His strength was in his legs and he held the broad jump record of twenty-three feet until only a few years ago. His feet were very large. His hands were exceedingly large. Lafayette said they ’were the biggest he had ever seen on a human b=ing. A horse couldn ' t over- throw him because he would lock his legs around the horse ' s sides and squeeze him to death. Eis hair was inclined to be sandy when young, but turned brown when he was older. Eis forehead sloped slightly forward. His eyes were a dark blue, but some say they were a cold gray. His nose was pointed and broad across the bridge. His cheeks were high and prominent like the American Indian ' s. They were also hollow. He had a mole in the cheek near the right ear. His face was pock-marked from smallpox. Before he died he weighed two hundred thirty pounds. — Audrey Donohue H7y ' PICTURES OF GEORGE WASHINGTON Judging what George Washington really looked like from his portraits might be as good a subject to debate as any, were it not for the life mask made by Houdon. There have been countless modelings, engravings, drawings, and paintings of our first president, and there have been more than forty life portraits of him. The resemblance between them is such that they suggest a Jekyl ' i and Hyde mystery. The life mask that Houdon made at Mount Vernon has given later artists an authen- tic model and it forestalls all doubts as to whether the one cent postage stamp is a good likeness. Among the portraits which will be seen in the national Historical Loan Exhibition, through the courtesy of their own- ers, is one by Robert Edge Pine owned by Greenville Kane of New York, and a miniature one by Charles Wilson Peale of New Haven, Connecticut. This miniature is at present at the Metro- politan Museum of Arts. The portrait of George Washington by Gilbert Stuart, is known as the Athenaeum Portrait . Gilbert Stuart, the Amer- ican artist, won celebrity in Europe at the age of twenty by making portraits of kings of England, and France. Stuart made this portrait from life at Philadelphia in 1796. He also made two other portraits of Washington, and this one, the last, was considered the best by both Washington and Stuart. This por- trait remained in Stuart ' s possession until his death in 1328. The portrait was then put into the Poston Athenaeum and later transferred to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. It is a popu- lar likeness of the Father of Our Country and represents truly the man who was first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen . During the time of this por- trait, Washington was the victim of slander anu. ridicule be- cause of ambitious politicians; in fact, it is reflected in a certain sadness in his face. These politicians have long since been buried in oblivion, while Washington ' s fame has grown. This portrait has been copied on the present one dol- lar hill, and has been used on other hills in the past. It has also been used on the twenty-five cent United States post- al stamp. There are people who point to the picture Washington Crossing the Delaware in scorn, because they say the flog in the picture was not adopted until about a year after the event was described. They also say Ceorge Washington would have had more sense than to stand up in the boat. Emanuel Leutze, the artist of the picture, was a Swiss who came to this country to take up historical painting. Other people think differently and feel that Washington Crossing the Delaware was a great lesson in art and should not have been removed from the walls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and stored in the cellar. William Sloane Coffin, the new president of the museum, said that the painting was the size of a. twenty-four sheet hill- hoard and was removed so that another exhibit would have room. He said the old painting will oc replaced for the public to view again at tlie museum ' s exhibit in Wa shins; ton. The Williams picture of George Washington a.ttracts much attention. In 1793, the Lodge in Alexandria, Virginia, re- quested General Washington, the President, to sit for the pic- ture. When he consented they employed Williams, of the city, to execute the work. It is a flesh-colored pastel, and is pro- nounced by critics of superior quality. It is the only pic- ture from life showing Washington in extreme old age and Ma- sonic regalia. The Lodge has been offered one hundred thou- sand dollars for the portrait hut would not part with the treas- ure. Mr. Williams brought out several facial marks and blem- ishes that the general is known to have possessed, but which have been shown in a modified form, if at all, by other art- ists. This fact adds greatly to the value of the portrait and arouses deep interest in historic and art critics, — Marian Me Walters, Charlotte Anderson, Lila Kesti, Claire Weidenger, and Elsa Schlafke H9y 1 WASHINGTON ' S FIRST MINUET Please may I have this dance? asked a bashful and shame- faced boy of his cousin at the first sweet strains of a minuet. Certainly, gayly replied his brown-eyed cousin. This answer made George Washington uncomfortable and he flushed a deep crimson for he was hoping that she would refuse him. The cousin noticed his embarrassment and her soft laugh- ter made George the more confused. He forgot which foot to begin with and he bowed at the wrong moments. Every time Washington raised his eyes he found his cousin regarding him with an amused expression. George could scarcely wait until the minuet would be over. He had previously secretly practiced this quaint dance before the big dressing mirror in his father ' s bedroom and he had considered himself an accomplished dancer. He was mortified now at his awkwardness at this his first ball. Soon the tables turned in George ' s favor. As his cousin was emphasizing her deep dip and graceful bow, one of her jew- eled slippers fell off. She tried to recover it without bringing attention to herself but she collided with Washing- ton ' s foot and fell helplessly upon the floor. With George ' s help she regained her dancing position and murmured softly, so no one else might hear, I like your kind of dancing best, George; it is better than all the dips, bows, and swirls, that are in the whole world J — Inez Kosty L9y ' Every hour misspent is lost forever, and. ... future years cannot compensate for lost days at this period of your life. This reflection must show the necessity of unremitting appli- cation to your studies. COSTUMES OF WASHINGTON ' S TIME The costumes of ’ ashington ' s time would look very odd if we were to wear them now. The ladies of his time were very dainty, and wore very beautiful clothes with long skirts and sleeves. The men would indeed look odd to us. They wore swallow-tail coats of many differ- ent colors; tight, short, knee pants, and long- white stockings. If we should see the soldiers of his time with their brightly colored uniforms and their three-cornered hats, we would think we were at a circus or ulay . The government men wore all black suits, with long swallow-tail coats, and large lace ties. We look upon the people of Washington ' s — j l ' ) time as odd-looking people, but if they were - to see us now, they would probably think of us in the same way. --Sheridan L. Stone L7y ' S. Stone THE FIRST HOME OF GEORGE WASHINGTON George Washington was born in an old farm house in Wake- field, Virginia, on February 22, 1732. The house was a queer, two story structure with a queer slanting roof. On the ground floor were four large rooms. At either end of the house, built outside, ' were two big fireplaces built of stone. Tire house had a lovely garden growing around it. There were many flowers of all kinds in this garden. Small George loved his home with its surroundings. Ke spent many hap y days in this old home. — Ruth Clark H7y ' MOUNT version Mount Vernon is located in Fairfax County, Virginia, a- bout fifteen miles from Washington, D. C. Lawrence Washington was the first owner of Mount Vernon and he named it after an English admiral under whom he had served. After the death of Lawrence, George ' s half brother, George became the owner of Mount Vernon. George Washington extended the boundaries of his land until they included almost eight thousand acres. In 1776 he enlarged his house by increasing its height and length. One of the rooms he added was the library and he designed this room for his study. The banquet hall was added in 1776 and this completed the enlargement of his house at the time. On the second floor of Mount Vernon there are six bed- rooms. Five of the bedrooms contain but little original furni- ture but all the articles are of historic importance. Washing- ton ' s bedroom is the most interesting one of all. His person- al belongings add much to the character of the ro nri. The only interesting room on the third floor is the bed- room of Mrs. Washington. The other five rooms on this floor were used for guest chambers. The buildings on the outside of Mount Vernon include the family kitchen, the smoke-house and the larder, the spinning house and the servant ' s quarters. The oldest building in the yard is the barn. It was erected in 1733 by Washington ' s father and the bricks of which it was constructed were brought from England. The coach horses and saddle horses were kept in this barn. South of the house, overlooking the river, is the summer house, and below it Washington kept his de.r. The portico is another feature of Mount Vernon and it ex- tends the full length of the house and its roof is held up by eight wooden columns reaching two stories. Standing on this porch one may see a beautiful view of the Potomac. The ideal spot of the Mount Vernon estate is the beauti- ful flower garden. Many of the original trees planted by Washington still border the driveway. The grounds at Mount Vernon testify to Washington ' s great love for trees, shrubs, and flowers. Washington invited many distinguished guests to help him plant trees on the grounds. Washington laid out the Serpentine Road, a driveway en- closing the west lawn known as the Bowling Green, which cir- cled by the flower go.rden up to the entrance gate. After the death of Washington, Mount Vernon was inherited by his relatives but finally, under the leadership of Miss Ann Pamela Cunninghan of the Mount Vernon Ladies ' Association, the house was restored and preserved as a public museum. George Washington ' s tomb still stands in the qui t beauty of Mount Vernon, and no one approaches this spot except with reverence and affection. — Dorothy Larripa, 3va Fehr L9y‘ THD KITCH2N AT MOUNT VLRNON Let us visit the old-fashioned kitchen of Martha Washing- ton where, long ago, meals were prepared for this great house- hold. Her kitchen is famous for its products of good old Vir- ginia cooking. The crane still hangs in the great fireplace and the brick ov on is in a state of good preservation, but the culinary art is no longer practiced here. Vegetables are seen drying above the fireplace. Logs are burning in the fireplace and the andirons are complete. The floor, which has been stained, is made of brick. On the wall is a rack where one may see pewter dishes in rows of different sizes. Pewter dish- es much like those used in the famous Mt. Vernon kitchen are now sold in the large stores throughout the country. They are both serviceable and reasonable. ' This kitchen is set apart from the rest of the house by an archway through which the ser- vants carried the food to the family aining room. The kitchen of today is very different from that old kitchen of Martha Washington. Nowadays the kitchens ar. tint- ed in light shades and are made as attractive as possible, for the housewife spends much of her time there. The housewife of today expects her kitchen to be well equipped with all modern conveniences such as the electric range, refrigerator and so on. Everything is so arranged as to save time and steps in preparing the meals. Neat pat- terned linoleum takes the place of the old brick floor. This modern kitchen is indeed a lovely place and sometimes meals are eaten in the cozy little breakfast nook in preference to the dining room. WASHINGTON THE BOY George Washington, from early boyhood, led an active life in the open air, and was ready for any task calling for brav- ery and endurance. He was the son of a well-to-do Virginia planter, but he never enjoyed the soft life of luxury. His father died when he was eleven years old. In school Washing- ton was good at figures, but his spelling and grammar were bad. At the early age of sixteen he was engaged by an English noble- man, Lord Fairfax, to survey his estate in Western Virginia. His work pleased Lord Fairfax, and so he secured Washington the position as public surveyor. He filled this position for three years. By this time he was no longer a boy. — Mary Brownlee L?y ' GEORGE WASHINGTON IN THE EYES OF CHILDREN In the eyes of children today, Washington is a great hero. To them he is not a hero because he was the first president of the United States but because he was such a great soldier and gentleman. When he came to Valley Forge his consideration for others was outstanding. He did not look around for shelter for himself but rather for his men. When his men were comfort- able, then, and then only, did he find shelter for himself. This teaches children who read history to place Washington higher in their minds as a hero and gentleman. — Edna Gardiner H7y’ It is well. George Washington ' s last words. LITTLE KNOWN INCIDENTS IN THE LIFE OF WASHINGTON There happened several curious incidents in Washington’s life that are not given their right importance. For instance when he was a boy he wanted to go to sea, but his mother did not approve of the idea. She promised to give him a new pocket knife if he did not go, Washington prom- ised and got his knife. Later, this same knife kept him from giving up his post as Commander-in-Chief . This incident, I feel, was very important because he might have gone to sea ar.d never have been a general on land where he was needed. Another incident was when he was already general and was going to his troops c He did not know the country where he was riding, and did not know the British were camping there in the woods. He was passing a clearing not sore than two hundred feet from an English trench, and didn ' t know it. A British officer who was walking with a soldier saw him without being seen. The soldier gave his officer his rifle and he took it and aimed at Wash ington. He was about to fire when he put the gun down and told the soldier that that would have been murder even if the cruel laws of war permitted it. Later, this same officer learned that the man whose life he had held in his hands was none other than George Washington. — Alfredo de Leon H8y ' WASHINGTON A FRENCH GENEKAL It is a little known fact that George Washington held two commissions at the same time. On June 15, 1775, he was ap- pointed Commander-in-chief of the Continental Army. Then in 1779, when King Louis XI? of France sent aid to the struggling Americans, a difficulty arose. The French were to be sent un- der command of Count Rochambeau, an officer of high rank in the French army, and the French officer was to serve under a mere colonial leader. 1 Very wisely, King Louis solved the prob- lem by creating Washington a Lieutenant-general in the French service so that his rank might be equal to that of Rochambeau. Lafayette brought the commission when he returned from France and Washington accepted it. The commission was never can- celled and Washington died an officer in a foreign army. — William Gale L8y ' THE STORY OF HIS Ki ' IHE When George Washington was eleven years old his father died and he went to live with his half-brother Lawrence. While there George obtained a commission to he a midshipman in the English navy. They were all ready to go ' hen George got a message from his mother forbidding him to go and, submissive to her wish, he went back to his studies. His mother ' s next order to England for annual supplies included an order for a good penknife which she gave to George as a reward for grant- ing her wish. The knife had the injunction on it: Always obey your superiors. To General Knox Washington explained how he got the knife and why. At Valley Forge George wanted to resign from leading the army because of some trouble they had, and wrote a letter of resignation. He was about to send it when General Xnox heard about it. He then said to Washington, Remember the knife and the injunction. Some one told you to lead this army and no one told you to resign. Then he went out. George Washington, after thinking it over, tore the letter and didn ' t resign. Mary Guzzardi H8y WASHINGTON ML THE CABBAGES One day during spring, George came running into the house very much excited and astonished. Father, father] he shouted; Oh, father] Do come and see] What is the matter? asked his father. The cabbages are coming up, and are writing my name, cried Geoi’ge. I suppose they just grew that way, said his father. Don ' t you think they grew by chance? They couldn ' t, said George; They wouldn ' t know how to grow that way if someone had not made them. You arc. quite right, said his father. I olanted those cabbages in that way to teach you a lesson that nothing comes by chance, but must be planned by someone. George was only eight rears old when he learned this les- son but he never forgot it for the rest of his life. — Gleason Rowell H8y WASHINGTON’S GREAT HEART Once, when Washington and his fellowmon were riding on a country road, he saw a family of little birds in the cold, damp grass, that had fallen from their nest in the branches of the tree above. Washington climbed aovm off his horse, picked up the little birds, and held them in his large, warm hands. Then he placed them carefully back in their nest. He had to travel fast for some time until he reached his comrades again, only to be received by a laugh. This, however, had little ef- fect upon Washington. Washington especially liked horses. One of his favorites fell and broke i£s leg. Instead of calling for a horse-doctor, he cared for the animal himself, and spent most of his time with the horse until it was completely cured. Don ' t you think this showeu his love for animals? — Bernice Barthols H7y ' WASHINGTON AS A SOLDIER At the age of nineteen Washington began his military ca- reer. He was a great leader, because of his bravery and cour- age, but mostly because he could handle his men. Because Wash- ington was always just in dealing with the men under his com- mand, they were always willing to serve him and were obedient. The men loved Washington. He never thought himself above the ranks of his men in any way. Washington won many victories in war. He had instilled in himself and his men the spirit of freedom. He was a very heroic figure and a great patriot. When he fought, he fought bravely and fairly ana was always generous to his defeated enemies. Washington never allowed his soldiers to jeer at, or torture their prisoners. After the independence of the thirteen colonies was achieved, he re- tired to his home in Mount Vernon, which during the eight years of war he had visited only once. — Theda Stevens E8y !

With another nair of arms it would have been easy, but the of- ficer world not help them. He shouted ot them, Don ' t st nd and look at itJ Move it.

I was not aware of that and I surely beg your card on, responded the stranger. Then the stranger nulled, off his coat and heired the men, and the officer did not even thank him. If you need me again vou mar send for me and I will lend a hand . M av I ask who you are? incrulrod the haughty corporal . Yes, sir. You will find me at the he dnue.rters tent.

GATS A RIVAL George Washington hod a very forgiving heart. During his life he h-d maiy nolitic-1 rivals. One of the strongest of these was General Gates. Gates was much in the favor of the public during the winter of 1781. He had bc.-n winning battles while Washington had been losing several. Then Gates, because he was thought to be so strong, w s sent to the South to stop the advance of the British army. Gates w ' s defeated, and had to retreat two hundred, miles J The whole country laughed at him and he was discharged . A few months afterword Gates re- ceived a message from Washington asking him to t-ke command of the right wing of the army. Gates accented with surprise and gratitude. — Doris Marshall L9y ' Let your heart feel for the afflictions end distr sses of everv one. IN THE DAYS OF WASHINGTON George Washington grew to manhood, at a time when aero- planes, electric lights, steam engines, and sewing machines were unheard of. He never saw a steamboat nor telephone. His farm implements were not the power-driven machines of today. Men harvested with scythes or sickles and threshed with flails. Washington ' s clothing was stitched by hand. On the frontier men wore the skins of animals. Running water in the homes had not been thought of. Fac- tory canning of fruits, meats, and vegetables was unknown to the colonists. Franklin had experimented with electricity but no use had been made of it. Homemade candles of tallow, and whale oil lamps, were used. There were weekly newspapers in the larger towns but dailies were unknown to the Americans, and public libraries were all but unknown. Many occupations of today did not exist then. No type- writers or telegraphs clicked, no elevators flashed up and down, no locomotives roared, and no modern surgery existed. The colonies would have prospered more if they had traded more freely with each other. It was a crime to use woolen goods that had come from another colony. It was a crime to make certain things at all. England wanted to sell all these things herself to the thirteen colonies. Think what freedom, what development, Washington and his often tired and hungry army gave to America. ' — Harry Stanford H7y WASHINGTON TAKES LEAVE OF HIS OFFICERS At the close of the Revolutionary War Washington ' s mili- tary career was ended. The painful task remained to bid adieu to the companions of his toils and dangers. The closing in- terview took place on December 4, 1783. At noon the principal officers of the army gathered at Fraunce ' s Tavern. Their gen- eral soon entered the room. His emotions were too great for concealment. Filling a glass with wine he turned to them and said, With a heart full of love and gratitude, I now take leave of you; I most sincere- ly wish that your latter days may be as prosperous and happy, as your former ones hove been honorable and glorious. He drank the wine and continued: I cannot come to each of you to take my leave, but shall be ob liged to you, if each of you will come and take me by the hand. General Knox, being the nearest , turned to him. Unable to speak, flashing ton grasped his hand and embraced him. In the same affecting manner, he toon leave of each succeeding officer. In every eye tears appeared and not a single word in- terrupted the tenderness of the scene. Washington immediately left the room and passed through a body of troops on his way to Whitehall, whore a barge awaited him. The men of the company quietly followed him. Having en- tered the barge he turned, and waving his hat bade them a si- lent farev oll. — June Worden L9y 1 THE OLD CLOCK In Washington ' s bedchamber there was old clock. On the death of General Washington, Doctor Elisha Callen Dick, Master of Masonic Lodge Number Twenty-two and one of the at- tending physicians, cut the catgut cord which hung the pendu- lum, at twenty minutes after ten p. m. After the funeral Mrs. Washington presented the old timepiece to Doctor Dick for the lodge. A placard bearing the following inscription now hangs be- neath the clock: Its work is done and the hands still point to the minute and hour that mark the close of the greatest life in history. It is said to be the only piece of furniture in the room at the time of Washington ' s death tint has not been restorea to its former place. — Gertrude Danska H7y ' The love of my country will be the uling influence of my conduct. It is at all times more easy to mako enemies than friends. It is our duty to make the best of our misfortunes. THE ALASKA TRIP A large steamer starts forth for Alaska from San Francisco about May fifteenth, with man fishermen aboard.. Reaching the Alaskan port the men do not start fishing right away. The canneries are made ready. . The actual fishing only lasts about a month, from June twenty-fifth to July twen- ty-fifth. Two men, with their small fishing schooner, start out with food, water, small gas stoves, and a tent, for the month of fishing. They stay on the river the whole month without coming to shore; not even to bring in fish; for a large boat is anchored out on the river where the fish are put. Lew nets are provided although the linen lines on the sides, and the corks on top, are from the past years. The widest place up the river where the fishing is, is ten miles wide, and the narrowest place is three miles wide. The fishing is between those places. The fish are sometimes so plentiful that the bottom of the boat seems as though it is on land when it really is going on the backs of fish. The men may catch about five thousand fish, but seldom more. The salmon stay in the sea about three and a half years. During this time they have grown to large fish. In the spring of the fourth year, as soon as the waters are warm, the salmon start to fight their way upstream. In October the female lays her eggs in about one to four feet of water. Then the fish start floating downstream, but with their tails ahead as though they were still struggling upstream. They weaken and in about ten days they die. Tire baby fishes ' first food is the decomposed bodies of their father and mother. Because of this, the efficient fisherman is able to tell quite well that each fourth year will be a good fishing year. At the end of the month the fishermen come back to get ready for their home coming. The fish are canned. Sometimes there are as many as eighty-five thousand of the best type. There are many different kinds of salmon. About the highest priced fish is the King Salmon for which each man in the lit- tle boat receives twenty cents. Some may weigh as much as one hundred pounds, One man caught one weighing eighty-four pounds. There are the Red Salmon and the Silver Salmon at low- er prices. There are many others some of which are nicknamed humpbacks and dogs by the fishermen themselves. The cans are labeled according to the kind of fish they contain. The men bring salted fish home and all the fish is loaded and made ready in two weeks. The men are on the same boat as the fish and they get home about August thirteenth. — Welraa Luoma H9y THE DESTROYER — SWIFT AND POWERFUL Tiie destroyer is the fastest ship used in the navy. It is called a destroyer because it is capable of a great deal of destruction with its deadly torpedoes. These ships carry a- bout twelve torpedo tubes, which are kept loaded; four or five deck guns, an anti-aircraft gun, and two racks each containing five depth charges. During the war they protected army trans- ports and merchant ships against submarines, with these depth bombs and smoke screens. These ships, like all the later type, use oil for fuel and the smoke screens are made by forcing in- to the oil burners more oil than can be completely burned. If a destroyer were to attack a battleship, the attack would pref- erably be mode at night so that the destroyer could approach under the cover of darkness and get near enough to make her torpedoes effective. After the destroyer had discharged its torpedoes it would attempt to escape, depending upon its speed and a smoke screen to help in getting away. It has no defence except speed and smoke. It has no armor because that would add too much weight. Every effort is made to keep the ship in the most efficient condition possible. The powerful turbines are kept in perfect shape. — Virginia Lankso H8y ' CAPTAIN Oil A U. S. N. DESTROYER The naval officer is not only a navigator but an electri- cal and mechanical engineer as well. He is superior to the other officers. He has charge of the whole boat, telling the officers what to do while they in turn tell the other men, such as the engineers, firemen and seamen what to do. To be a captain on a destroyer, a man must go to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. When he graduates he enters the navy as a commissioned officer with, the rank of ensign. This places him in direct line for promotion. Midshipmen never en- ter the navy as common sailors nor hold a position below that of a commissioned officer. They must be above average in phys- ical health, as well as neat and polite at all times. These men, after four years as midshipmen in the academy, enter the regular fighting force and are promoted in regular order, in their respective turn, until they reach the highest position in the navy, that of admiral. A man who serves twenty years can get a pension of one- half of his pay or a home in the Naval Home for the rest of his life. If he serves for thirty years, he con get a full pension. He is sure of his job. There are no strikes or ri- ots. He receives good pay which varies with the position held, ranging from that of the midshipman to that of an admiral, and he sees the world for nothing. The chief disadvantage is being away from one ' s family and friends. It is lonely on the sea. No one is allowed to whistle on the ship except the boatswain. A common sailor should not try to work his way up as a commissioned officer. It is better for a man or a boy to enter the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis if he wishes to be in the navy for his life. — John Encalada H9z THE LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER Often one who has grown old in sea service or has lived all his life near the ocean becomes a lighthouse keeper. Few others could endure this detached existence with every activi- ty accompanied by the incessant pounding of the sea. From sunset to sunrise, a lighthouse keeper has his lights going, warning navigators of dangerous rocks. When the fog settles down, he starts the signals moaning. In addition to tending to the lights he gives signal flashes to ships warning tnem of nearby danger. He must be able to give the signal code in flashes. He has to get up at different intervals during the night to check on the apparatus. The advantages to a lighthouse keeper are his pay, whicn is from three thousand to five thousand dollars a year, and a vacation of three months a year on full pay. Since he has no way of spending his money, he has more chance of saving it for future use. The greatest drawback is loneliness. He spends a solitary life unless he has a wife or child devoted enough to him to spend h er life with him. Another disadvantage is in not being very sure that his supplies will arrive when he ex- pects them. They are often delayed bi r storms. The lighthouse keeper must paint the lighthouse once a year, the money being furnished to him by the Bureau of Lighthouses. An inspector comes every four months to inspect the lighthouses and appara- tus, which must be in perfect order. In history we have had such great men as David Stevenson and Marshall Wright and other important lighthouse keepers. They have saved lives as well as performing their duties as lighthouse keepers. These men are greatly respected and ad- mired for their service to mankind. In order to prepare for this work, men must have a high school education plus six months work in a training school. Nations are greatly indebted to men who choose this ser- vice for their life work. — Dorothy Conrad H9z THE CHIEE STEWARD The chief steward supervises sleeping accommodations and looks after the commissary. He must know how to arrange and prepare different kinds of foods. He also must prepare night lunches for the members of the crew who are on the night watches. He must have the cook fix any items relating to the comfort of the passengers. He must also check the ship’s stores. When the ship is in dock, the supplies have to be stored away under his direction. He lias many to work under him, such as the chefs, cooks, stewardesses and porters. Hie qualifications for this job are: He must bo neat and clean at all times, he must be active and reliable and should have a high school education. The advantages for this job are: He gets good pay plus his board and room, has plenty of free time, and has a good chance for promotion to shore-side duty if he keeps himself as he should. The disadvantages to this position center in the necessi- ty of being away from his family most of the time. Further- more, on the ocean the weather conditions sometimes are un- desirable. Stewards are not to talk with any passengers on board while on duty. This job is very important on large passenger vessels as there are often fifteen to twenty stewards on a ship. The de- mand for these men is very great because there is always a chance for improving steward service. The training of these men is on the ship while they are working as waiters, mess boys or cooks. If they can be depended upon they are promoted until they reach the highest job, that of chief steward, who has full charge. — Lester Johnson H9z MY SHIP My ship is going to sail away About three weeks from today. Aboard her deck my soul shall be; Aboard the ship no one but me. Now she ' s sailing far at sea Bringing back my hope to me. Over the ocean waves she glides and sails Through the thunder storms and gales. --John Martinez H8y A CAPITAL SHIP” A capital ship For an ocean trip as the Wal ” Quiet down belowj bellowed the captain ' s voice. Yes, sir, was the faint response. The men below deck paused a moment and, hearing the muf- fled footsteps of the captain moving off in the direction of the stern, softly resumed their interrupted song. This time it was broken by the harsh and frenzied cry of, All hands on deck. ' Storm coming upj There was a scramble of clumsy feet up the worn stairway and soon the sails were pulled down and everything was in read- iness for the storm, which had already broken. The wild waves were lashed higher and higher until the dark, swirling waters swept over the dock, while the lightning cut fantastic designs in the inky black sky. Quickly and with accurate deftness the mast was taken off by the driving gale. Nothing can save us now, yelled a sailor above the rag- ing storm; but suddenly a clear young voice was heard, and the tired but hopeful sailors joined in the song: A capital ship For an ocean trip Four hours later, beached upon a sandy shore, was a de- serted ship. The sailors were all on shore marveling at their escape. I don ' t know what saved usi bellowed the captain ' s voice. I do, sir, said the boy who begun the song.

He moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin; then he came to Berkeley in 1877. He started to fish from Fisherman ' s Wharf in San Francisco,, and from the Oakland piers. When he caught more fish than he needed he put them into sacks and sold them on the ferries. This was so successful that he decided to sell fish for a liv- ing. People used to look forward to Friday when their dinners would be fine, fresh fish and sea food bought from my grand- father. He put up a fish store at Fourth and University Ave- nue, in Berkeley, and people went there to buy. He used six strings with fifty floats on each of the six strings. He had strings coming from the floats with five or six hooks on them. It would take two hour’s or more to get the fish off these hooks and rebait them. He would get as much as seven hundred fifty fish a catch. My frandfather was well-known in the East and West Bay re- gions, and greatly liked. He died in 1931. Frank Spenger now funs his store at Fourth and University Avenue. — Herman Spenger H7y It is by a steady and rigid attention to the rules of propriety that confidence is obtained. ADVENTURE ABOARD THE BURNS TON As the wind came screaming around the house, and the rain peltered down, Old Joe, the sea dog, Began his story. It was in the eighties then, and I was a young man of twenty., I had just listed on the good ship Burnston, a fine and hearty ship of five stout masts and a deep hull. That evening I happened to drift into a saloon and sit at a table where I heard two men talking. 11 ’That ship Burnston is a jinx ship’, said one. ’Yes, I ' ve heard some terrible tales about her’, said the other. I was just getting interested in their talk when they got up and went out; but what I had heard interested me very much and I was determined to sail on her. That night we put to sea with a fairly good wind which carried us along at a nice speed. As I mounted the poop deck I could hear the jacking up of the sails and see through the dim light the huge figures of the crew. We were out about three weeks, and bound for Tahaiti, when a typhoon hit us. In five minutes we were being whirled around at a terrific speed and were unable to recover the ship. At last we were flung free, with a hold full of water and a loss of two men. When the helmsman took the wheel he found it useless. On top of all, the mainsail was in tatters. We drifted helplessly on for days, without seeing land or ship. Our crew grew restless and one night we heard a shot. Running on deck we found the captain shot through the arm. Next day vie tried the whole crew, though the captain h a d seen who had shot him. Before we got half way around the crew, a strange mar! made his appearance from the hatch. The captain, already aware of this, lunged toward him and sent him sprawl- ing on the deck. The man uttered an oath and pulled from his belt a pistol. He was just about to shoot when there came a long, narrow dagger which nailed him to the deck. Tire cook’s aim had been true. The captain, suffering from the wound of the night before, fell into a state of unconsciousness and vie took him to his cabin. Eight bells had just rung when a terrific wind struck us, throwing the waves to a huge height. We were helpless, for we had no rudder and no mainsail; and all prepared for the worst. Bangi That was all. The next second I felt the ice-cold wa- ter around me and I clung to a piece of mast floating by. The captain came into my mind. Was he alive or drowned? It made me sick to think of it hut I began to search for him. I was nearly exhausted when I saw what made me shudder. There, a little distance from me, was the captain ' s body. Had he died from his wound, or had someone killed him? I swam toward him and saw. Someone had stabbed him in the back. Was it the cook who had killed the other fellow? Where was the crew? No one knows. I grew dizzy and I, too, fell unconscious. ' Hey, you guys. ' Get that deck scrubbed or I ' ll throw you into chains. 1 I opened my eyes and saw a giant of a man yelling at his crew. Just then he turned around and in e second his strong arms were around me. He was my brother who had run away from home when he was fifteen. He told me he was going home, and of how he had saved me from drowning. He said, ' I was just a- bout to turn in when I heard the helmsman utter a groan. I dashed to the side of the deck and saw someone floating on the water. I stripped off my coat and dived in. I recognized you in a minute and thought you were a goner. You don ' t know how happy I was to see you open your eyes! ' We were home in a few weeks and here I am today telling you this story of forty-odd years ago. — Wilbur Mann H8y MY WISHES I want to go to a South Sea Isle, In a ship that ' s made of candy; Where corals are made of peppermint tile And there ' s always lolly-pops handy. I ' d like a house made of cookies and cake, Where the trees have chocolate trunks, And where there was a soda-pop lake, And we slept in marshmallow bunks. I wish there wasn ' t any school, That the children were wise and free, And we would abide by the Golden Rule, And could drink of coffee and tea. — Mary Folliard H8y ' THE TYPHOON For two days the trim ship Maria had shoved her nose through the calm, billowy sea. Soft winds were blowing; the sun shone brightly. Now on the third morning at sea, beneath a sky spotted with red and violet tints, she was ploughing through long swells that rocked her about. A fine, misty rain that seemed to have grown out of the very atmosphere was fall- ing. The ship began to roll helplessly on the long, oily swells. Off the port beam a low, dark, forbidding cloud ap- peared like a distant land, and from it a squall was brewing. The ship was headed right in its path. A strange, yellowish, unusual light that had hung over the sea, suddenly vanished. The sky darkened, and large drops of rain fell on the decks of the Maria. A breath of wind came out of the southwest, which steadily increased in volume until it hummed around the bridge where the grim, stern-eyed captain stood. Then the rain stopped; the sky grew blacker; the sea turned a dark green and rose like a huge green monster about to swallow the trim ship and all its staunch crew for an early evening meal. The Maria buried her nose in the angry sea. The sea resisted and rose mightily. The ship rose with a quiv- ering movement, rose slowly with her bow poised against the black sky for a sickening moment — and then slowly settled down again. The darkness of the night closed upon the ship and in the heart of every sailor on the ship was a prayer. The sea roared with delight. Then came the wind. It advanced like a great hand ad- vancing to strike the ship with a tremendous blow — first a hum, then a roar and a scream and bellow of rage. All the dark sea elements were screaming about the little ship, screaming to be let in and furiously raging when they found they were not. Lightning flashed; thunder roared like the b eating of a drum. Suddenly a wave more daring than all its fellows rose up — up — up over the ship. ' Others joined it, and then lightning, jeal- ous of the waves, struck; and struck again, twice at the same place. The wind lashed out its powerful hand and screamed. All night this fury lasted until — suddenly all was still. The lightning refused to strike; the winds ceased to blow; the rain ceased to fall; the blackness lifted. Streaks of light appeared through the parted clouds, and the sun rose in all its glory, giving the clouds a rosy tint. The sea. was calm; but where was the ship? Where was the gallant crew? The sea answered, Tire crew is gone; the ship is gone — down into my chest of missing ships; and only I remain. Always I shall con- quer.

One was about seventy years of age while the other two were middle-aged. It was raining and they had not a thing to do but talk. Their conver- sation finally got around to the days of Eorty-nine . Then the oldest man (we will call him Jake) said, Did I tell you about my mother ' s trip across the Isthmus of Panama? Well, said the man who looked the younger, it won ' t do us any harm. My mother told me this story one day when I was sick in bed, so I ' ve always remembered it. About 1849 news of the dis- covery of gold in California began to reach New York and my mother thought she -would go and get herself an apron full of gold. This is what she told me of her trip: ' We started from New York late in the year 1849 and, as we went to get on our ship (which was the Golden Albatross) I noticed it was a steamship, and a fairly large one. The peo- ple were all about with their clothing and food because you could not buy anything on the boat. ' For nine days we sailed down the Atlantic coast and, on the tenth day we reached Panama. There was a big commotion while the women passengers got off the boat and it was re- fueled. The women were to go across the Isthmus on mules and meet another boat on the Pacific side, because the trip around the Horn was too long and dangerous. Only the men went on that part of the trip. Crossing the Isthmus was dangerous, too, as there was always the danger of being attacked by Mexi- cans or of contracting a tropical fever. ' As we reached the other side and met a boat called the Yankee Blade I noticed it was different from the other boat. It was a boat with both steam and sails and looked much strong- er than the Golden Albatross. ' Everybody except the crew got off the boat and, when night came, the captain tried to sail off without us to go back and get more passengers. As the captain was getting ready to sail away one of the men discovered his nlot and he was made to stay and take us to California. ' For three days all went as it should but on the fourth day we sighted a storm. The water began to rise in large swells and dash over the bow. The passengers began to run for any shelter they could find. Very soon the thunder was heard and lightning ran through the sky, lighting the ship from stem to stern, and then, as if to climax the picture, the heavens fell in torrents of rain. The captain ordered full steam a- head and we tried to reach San Diego. The boat dived and plunged as if she were trying to dive to the bottom of the o- cean. As the storm reached its highest, the mast came thunder- ing down, knocking down everything that came in its uath. It crashed through the pilot house, killing the first mate. The captain narrowly escaped by dashing through a door end jumping down the stairs. ' As the dawn came the California sky was clear and blue. The captain took our position and found that we had passed our stop and that we would have to try for San Francisco. ' For two more days we sailed on and then the coal gave out and the captain ordered everything made of wood to be thrown into the fire except the parts of the boat. The people were very generous and gave everything they had until finally they were throwing in their hams and bacons and pulling down the cabins on the boat. On the third day we limped into the Golden Gate, just as we had nothing more to burn. There wasn ' t much of San Francisco then but nothing was more welcome than the harbor of San Francisco.

But though I like to sail and roam, I love another place called homo; So down that boy I ' d sail again; Down that quiet, moonlit lane, — Marjorie Mergenthal H8y THE SEA Did you ever sit by the sea on a balmy day and wish you were going to sail away on a big ship? It might be a merchant vessel or even a pirate ' s ship. Just picture yourself as Captain Kidd or some other fa- mous old pirate. Imagine your men digging for a buried treas- ure and at last, when the treasure is unearthed, how rich you feel; and how jolly your men are; and that old pet parrot who always is perched on your shoulder will shriek with glee and jump up and down. Then you will take the treasure back on your good ship and lock it in a strong room. Then there is al- ways the pleasure of making the men you capture walk the plank. Most of the time you and your men will play poker or some oth- er game of cards. The danger in being a. pirate is that some day you might be hung; but think of the funJ I think that every boy (and maybe some girls) dreams of being a pirate and sailing on the sea. — Wilma Morrison H8y MY TREASURE SHIP The ship goes sailing on the sea, It brings good tidings for you and me, In different weather, rain or shine, Its course is headed straight in line. Though billows rock and winds blow free, My ship and cargo comes to me, When round my Cape of Hope she flies, Her colors gleam and line the skies. Through serene seas it wends its way, At my feet to anchor lay Precious gifts; not jewels or gold, But gifts of kindness and unselfishness, it holds. —Dorothy Wilson H3y ' A SAILOR Give me the life of a sailor bold, Who sails o ' er the deep blue sea, ’There waves roll high and, so I ' m told, You may live a life that is free. —Chester Kelly L3y ' TEE BAY 01! A RAINY DAY Have you ever crossed the bay on a rainy day? I have. The cold, icy wind seemed to pierce through me, and the old creaky, lumbering boat dived madly about. The frothy, white- crested waves came up and hit the front of the boat and I heard a terrific splash and thump as the big, waves hit, send- ing a silvery sheen over the wind-sweet deck. The angry, churned-up waves seemed to delight in the water fight with out boat, as it was tossing and diving about in the ale. We rode safely through the green troughs of foaming water to the pier, and I left the big, white boat with the feeling that I had had a thrilling experience on the stormy bay. — Donald White E7y MOONIIC-HT ON THE HATER The moon was just setting over the tall, stately build- ings of San Francisco. Its sheen shone on the water of the bay like silver. A small, sailboat was sailing gracefully a- long the outer harbor. As the moonlight touched the small white sail, it appeared like silk. There was a gentle wind blowing that rippled the water smoothly and gently. TThere the moonlight kissed the water, it looked like different sorts of jewels rolling and gliding along. Moonlight on the water is extraordinarily beautiful. — Edna Gardiner H7y ' SAILORS’ FEATHER BEDS On the old windjammers sailors got the feathers for their feather beds from the albatross, a bird that lives south of the equator and is the largest of all sea birds. When the ship sails below the equator, the sailors begin to make new coverings for their mattresses. Then they make triangular hooks of brass to catch the albatross. They tie the hook to a long line and put meat on it. Then they let the line drag behind the ship. The albatross has a hooked beak and when it tries to get the meat off the hook, the sailor pulls the line in fast and the bird ' s beak is caught and he cannot get away. The sailor throws the bird on the deck and the albatross cannot fly from dry wool so the sailor has no fear of it flying away. The birds are skinned and the feath- ers are put into mattresses and pillows. The left over feath- ers are put into a bag and brought to land and sold. — Elmer Ringbom L9y ' BOATS He P.11 know it is very wonderful that boats which weigh three or four hundred tons can float on water. How would you like to ride in a boat that would not stay on the water very long after it started? I don ' t think it would be so bad, be- cause you don ' t sink. You fly. I think flying boats are much more wonderful than floating ones. — Lyle Brown L7y M nd 03 p O 1 — I 0 Pi tf 1 0 nd nd 4-3 co jb £ 0 0 ft 1 — 1 tf 1 O 4-3 Ph cd a •H a5 0 H nd cj tf tf pH 4-3 tf 43 0 tf tf P tf 03 tf 03 0 O a P CD tf • - 43 nd tf 0 tf •rH b p (W 4-3 03 CD •H •H 1 — 1 LTV •rd P nd tf nd 03 Pi 0 tf 10 nd Td Co O.CO •H 0 0 -E 0 0 co g O W tf CD Fi r-o nd P P rH P.
