Digmjied, athletic, and popular, That was our Chuck. A Parting Word A parting word? What shall it be? My heart 'most fails me when I see Another group of girls and boys Ready to leave their schoolday joys, Ready to take their way on life s road, Ready to shoulder their share of its load. What is before them? Who can say? But this we know, as the go on their way, Their path will brighten hom day to da , Their courage increase, their hearts will he gay. They'll build the ladder on which they'll rise To heights undreamed of, to gain the prize Of tasks attempted, of work well done, Of service rendered, of victory won. But what of us whom they leave behind? How we shall miss their presence kind, Their friendly spirit, their care-free joy, Their happy laughter so free from alloy' But though their faces no more we may see, They'll never fade from our memory. And we'll be wishing them all the way through The best of everything, good and true. So here's to the class that's leaving today With your future so fair and your hearts so gay. May nothing e'er dim the luster which now Shines in your eye, and your unfurrowed brow. May you ever be true in word and deed. So wish you, one and all, Godspeed , JEAN W. GIBSON. ' .... .

It will be remembered that about four years ago there was mg' much speculation as to the outcome of the hazardous voyage undertaken by the good ship City of Schurz. Many believed it was fo-lly to attempt the 225 f journey, but the skipper of the vessel. lil ' 5 - 2 Captain Slocum, was determined to set l .5 il out. The goal, which then seemed so Y. all in far away, was the City of Graduation. 4:1 tr' The crew of the City of Sehurz was . ' --.., composed of various classes, many weak- ' willed, who turned back shortly after the li journey had started, but the greater num- izgl ber remained to make a name for them- selves wherever the boat set anchor. 1 The trip is now iinished. And to WI satisfy those who believed it could not end T ' well, Captain Slocum has published the log, which was in his keeping during pix the four year voyage. flip in-nz Ii The following are excerpts from this interesting log February, 1922. Amid the cheers and best wishes of all concerned with their - i welfare, the crew of the City of Schurz set out on their maiden voyage to . the City of Graduation from Port Ayaitch CA. HJ. The passengers were assigned to quarters under the command of sev- . eral officers. CSorroW among freshies when sent to division rooms different P from those of their friendsj.

The party started ,l H on a hunt for the buried Honor Roll and Good Marks of which thev had heard so much. V ,5 The Red Mark Showers, which frequently occurred, proved very detri- ll mental to those who could not withstand the dampness. f Clara Gruzalski proved to be the first to find the highest prize. Spurrecl on by her success, many got better results. Umbrellas of Industry protected these from frequent showers. I ,Q ls. 4115 gglr Thirl y- fi-1 W: I 'lf 1 Lf J l. ., . pawn-5 ' , : ..

A,. , Class Prophecy FRANCES SCHEFFNER AND CrUSTAVE EHNBORN It was a dull, gloomy day in December, 1950, a horrible day. Two reporters who had braved the cold, finally reached their destination. They entered a tall, imposing-looking building. As the man stooped to examine the building directory, the woman who accompanied him stripped off her gloves and blew upon her chilled fingers. Look here, he said suddenly. Didn't they go to school with us ? His finger ran along under the name Aronson-Stern 8z Company, Commercial Artists, Offices 15th Floor. They did, she replied, and here are more. The 'Dose-Dwyer-Dunlop- Dersch Photographers'g and here's the 'Cakes-Greenfield Company-Importers of Parisian Creations'. Ah-but here's the one we've been looking for-'Lecker 8z Martin, Chem- ists and Inventors'. When the automatic elevator had delivered them at the floor desired, they found themselves standing before a door, upofn the glass panel of which was printed Ruth Lecker Sz Elmer Martin, Private. Being privileged characters, they entered. A woman, her dark eyes aglow with achievement, met them. Come in, she cried. You're just in time to try our latest invention, the 'Radio Television' machine. It surely is a wonder-the best thing we've ever made. She ushered them into a large room, where seated, was a man intently at work upon the mechanism of something that looked much like an elaborate moving-picture screen. The man was none other than .Elmer Martin, the world famed inventor. He was so intent upofn his work that he scarcely looked up as they entered, but went on manipulating the dials of the device. Immediately there fiashed upon the screen an elaborately decorated arena in Spain. Seated next to the king was the great diplomat, Edward Bowman. On his right was the President of the United States, Irving Stoller. This was the famous contest which was to determine the world's champion toreador. In the ring Alvido Cimeley, the American champion and el senor Roberto de la McMenamin battled for supremacy. Among the most prominent spectators were Dorothy Juhnke, Marion Paulsen, Bernard Cohn, Charlotte Weber, Frank Stonesifer, Lester Briesenick, Genevieve Kochanski, and Ernest Faigle. The loud speaker attached to the machine emitted a few weird groans and then the listeners heard Peanuts, pop corn, cracker jack, and chewing gtun. Anybody else? They exchanged amused glances and watched the screen in- tently. A white clad man was wending his way through the crowds, carrying an immense basket upon his shoulders. Allen Karman ! they cried in unison. Again the scene changed, this time revealing a busy restaurant. The electric sign over the door bore witness to the fact that it was the Rose Tea Room and that Arthur Bagge was its proprietor. Seated at a table near one of the windows were Beatrice Thon, who had become a reader and impersonator of international note, Stig Rundstrom, a professor of Spanish, Marion Enerson, a brilliant society light, and Robert Anderson, of no mean fame in football. At a table in a remote corner, Lionel Briggs, a dearly-beloved poet sat murmuring verses to himself, a distressed absent-minded frown upon his forehead. And fought for maidens fair, he whispered.

During the summer months, when New Schurz was being completed, a very successful Summer School, consisting of over 900 pupils, was in session. Itlwas necessary to crawl over, or under, a great deal of scaffolding, but that was done with very little trouble. The pounding in the new building was fully appreciated by teachers and pupils alike. 4 ' , Many took advantage of a course in swimming that was offered. Mr. john- son instructed the boys on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and had charge- of the girls on Tuesday and Thursday. The pool was open from ten in the morning, for hour periods, till one o'clock in the afternoon. 1 . Ei Schurz had the largest Summer School graduation in its history. On Friday, August 21, forty-one pupils graduated. Thirty-one of these are graduates of Schurz from the3 four year course and two, graduates ,from the tw-qyear course at Falconer. In the middle of August the graduates assembled and chose .their pins and rings. The latter part of thevsame month they again met and elected Doris Costello to Write the epitaphs. Much credit is due to Miss Semmelmeyenfor she was the one who spon- sored.thePgraduation class. Mrs. Gibson invited the graduates to attend the Senior prom in ebruary. The Summer School class of 1925 hopes that the high standard of scholar- ship that was characteristic of old Schurz, may be a standard for new Schurz to look up to and follow. , I JENNIE SPRAGUE, Summer 1925.

Alas! My work I've shunned, I've had my fun, And honors at Schurz aren't easily won. M erqcdes Rabey. The memories of Falconer we cannot forget, The attending of that school we'll never regret.

I Class History Back in February, 1924, we poor freshies gathered in the assembly hall of Falconer Branch, to enter upon the unexplored mysteries of high school. Let us halt here, and look back over that period of two years. We were received with great joy, and greeted by our principal, Mr. Fisher, who assigned and directed us to our various rooms. The bookkeepers were fortunate enough to begin the A. M. session, while the stenographers received the P. M. program. Our teachers treated us with consideration, and they were the ones who encouraged us to climb the steps to Success or graduation. Our class lost some members at the end of the semester, while the bookkeepers dwindled to seven, the final semester. Falconer had splendid principles. One of the most charming of these was the spreading of personal acquaintance among the teachers and students, for Falconer was built on the foundation of friendship, and to this day is maintained by that spirit. The first semester we worked hard, and when we received our report cards we understood the full value of hard, honest, and earnest work. Our marks were milestones directing us onward. But, of course, we had our play times as well as our working time. Our gym was the liveliest place in school, and in it we enjoyed various games-baseball, basketball, and every other athletic sport. . In our third semester we were no longer crude beginners, but proud ZB's. In this semester we experienced a delightful two-day trip to the T uley High School, where we received instructions on typewriter repairs. We also enjoyed a splendid radio program given in our school, the topic of which, was President Coolidge's Inauguration. Among other events was Character Day, and the receiving of certificates for speed accomplished during the month, both of which we enjoyed immensely. In our last semester, the most memorable one, a great event occurred, and that was the removal to Schurz, We had been only a few weeks at Falconer, when we were transferred to our mother branch, Carl Schurz. Of course we were ea.ger to become acquainted with Schurz, and each and every one of us was enthusiastic over the great change. But we still look back to Falconer as our dearest friend, and we will never forget her. About a month after the change We organized our class meetings, and elected officers. Our school work has always come first, and our time for recreation last. The stenographers have worked their way up in taking fast dictation, and in accurate typewriting also. The bookkeepers, however, were not idle, for they proved very efficient. l Happy times were ours, and happy moments are yet to arrive, for we are eagerly awaiting the opportunities of the future. We owe all our ability to our dear teachers, who for two years, have continued to encourage and help even those who have failed. We heartily thank them for their splendid service.

This radio was quite different from others. Pearl could see the broadcaster as well, as converse with him. ,Tohanna Fittig, the announcer, opened the program with the following words: This is station CSHS, located on the Hotel Schurz. The Future Land Magicians will play a number of selections and give some talks. This program is given by the February '26 Class. Miss Fittig will make several announcements about the class. A short, Wiry, little woman told the audience that athletics should absolutely be barred from schools, especially swimming and skating. Ethel Zierke was the enemy of athletics. The details of a wedding followed this discussion. The bride, Muriel Kernber, had risen from the lowly station of stenographer and become a private Secretary. She was now being married to her boss, a cheese magnate. Mr. and Mrs. Limburger will be at home after June 20. Among the bridesmaids were the famous movie actresses, Evelyn Blankenberg and Violet Colby. A motherly looking woman surrounded by her seven children told an inter- esting bed time story. Ruth Prellberg was the story lady, and they say her kiddies are just crazy about her. A famous elocutionist then read a number of comical selections, and as soon as she came to the end of a sentence, we 'all recognized Rosalie Fritz by that peculiar little ending. Amy Watts, the famous skeleton of a popular circus could be seen, and she confidentially told her auditors that she was on a diet because of her increase in weight. Verna John stood beside Amy. She was the fat lady, who claimed that she ate chocolates with all her meals. Dolan and Donohue, the Siamese Twins, were quarreling, as per usual. The proceedings of a divorce case were now broadcast. In the midst of the lawyer's strongest argument, a little voice piped out: Just a minute! This outline isn't perfect, your honor. Certainly, Miss Denton, said Edwin Kruege, the lawyer. The divorce case was that of Mr. and Mrs. Pickle, formerly Adeline Hartke, who was divosrcing her husband because after she married him she found that he was dill instead of sweet. The judge was 'Theresa Dibisch, and Mr. Pickle's steno was Florence Bos. The boss at a certain switchboard told her audience how she keeps her girls from sleeping on the job, and asks men not to teach the girls such profane language. Helen Kinney, the Number please girl, was the orator. Under her supervision was Margaret Amour. A long talk was given by Professor Paul Schaeffer. In his drawling voice he attempted to bring before the public the subject of civics and its won- derful effects. A noted American orator gave a lecture on the foolish nervousness of women. During the lecture her eyes constantly blinked and her hands trembled. By these traits Eleanor Modjeski was recognized. ' To relieve the monotony of speeches, the '26 Graduating Class Orchestra will give a few selections, announced Johanna. A Fifty-nine ssitffifsfase-sf M:'.,.... . M.

At one end of the stage, Dorothy Marquardt played a hand organ with an attentive listener at her side -a monkey. Eileen Brautigan was exerting all her superfluous energy by strug- gling to play the saxs. Annie Eidukas was clashing cymbals, occasionally making a noise as the cymbals seemed to miss each other every time. Gladys Petersen is now an assistant of Antoinette Donnelly. She held her audience long. Margaret Klingelhofer, Gertrude Kostrewski, Wanda Szczupaj, and Virginia Baer, were especially interested in'this discussion. An alderman, Louis Churchill, gave a lecture on Blue Law Sunday. Henry Dahl was his opponent, and between them there was a good debate. Henry Dahl believes in the right to take his girl out on Sunday. The employees of the Hotel Schurz also were entertainers. This hotel in which the broadcasting took place was under the ownership of Jeannette -lessen. The chef, Rose Baggot, gave an interesting talk on soup, and the merits of salt and pepper. Dorothy Claas was the maid, and they say one of her gentle- men roomers left her a pretty penny. I have several announcements to make, said Johanna Fittig, about the '26 graduating class. A club was formed under the name of Steno's Old Maid Club. The members include, Ruth Bischoff, a competent stenog Florence Krausczak, an efficient bookkeeperg Evelyn Olson, an expert typistg Irene Sass, a private secretary, and Evelyn Krueger, who is just an all around old maid who keeps house for the others. These intelligent women have proved that it is better to support themselves than a husbandg consequently they are men-haters. Cecelia Rausa, it was heard, left for France, and there became the wife of a marquis. She and her husband visited the Parisian Fashion Display, and there recognized Margaret Bachman, Mae Clark, Leigh Clausen, Florence Tom- check, Ethel Bo-lund, and Eleanore Metz, who were employed as models for this performance. They were dressed in elegant clothes. Among the girls at college we find Winifred Hain, Rose Kramer, Evelyn Leonard, Lillian Mackprang, Alice Wroble, Beatrice Schneider, Myrtle Krempel, Evelyn Sherer, and Myrtle Hoering. Lucille Ritt has become a prominent music teacher. Martha Nagel, a famous African huntress, was the head of an expedition. Under her stern rule, were Gladys Schnell, Mildred Roest, Florence Christen- son, and Hanna Schuster. They hunted such game as snakes, bedbugs, and worms. These were stuffed and sent to the National Museum at Wasliington. Gertrude Kempe, the famous prima donna opera singer, who thrilled so many audiences, is now teaching her old class-mates, Stephanie Scharlog, Lor- raine Healv, and Maybelle Sawyer. Irene Pavolowa, look to your laurels! Adelia Anderson hopes to surprise the world some day by her graceful dancing. Florence Novak typed 275 words per minute, thereby winning the world's championship. Ellen Gunderson used Mildred Olsen as a victim of her beauty culture in a. demonstration of new coiffures. Evelyn Amaldus' ambition is to fill Sid Sm.ith's shoes some day, and oh! boy, her cartoons are beyond description. Yvette Gamelcy reports all cat and dog fights and she would appreciate it if you would let her know, etc. She is also an authority on ways of keeping temporary fillings in your teeth, when they are being fixed.

WU. .. .- .... - V Daisy Chases way The Spirit By ALICE CARLSON If you had gone by the large, drab, old house on Maple Street that evening, through the pine trees that closely surrounded the place you would have seen a dim light shining in one of the gables. In the small bare. bedroom from whence issued the light a tiny, dried-up old woman was preparing to retire. From time to time as she was loosening her few, thin locks of gray hair, which she wore in a tight knot in the top of her head during the day, she turned her kindly, gray eyes upon the big, black cat who was sleeping soundly on a soft bit of carpet in the middle of the room. After carefully hanging her old-fashioned calico dress upon the only little chair that the room contained, she blew out the poor light of the oil lamp and retired peacefully. Maria Blom was the name of this poor widow who, with her big intelligent cat, lived in this gloomy, ancient house. She had kept boarders to earn a liveli- hood, but lately, because of her feebleness, she was unable to do so. The last boarder, Gust Lund, had been killed while lying on the road in a drunken stupor. As the old clock on the mantel chimed twelve, Mrs. Blom was awakened from her tranquil dreams by the noise of something stumbling up the rickety stairs that led to the second floor and walking unsteadily through the little hall, past her own door and into a chamber at the end of the corridor. The frightened widow clutched her soft feather-bed in a frenzy of fear as she recognized the noise to be the same as had been made by the deceased Mr. Lund every night while living with her. Hearing no more of the appalling sounds, Maria assured herself that it was a bad dream, and soon she was again sound asleep. The second night at the same hour the same terrifying incident occurred. And the third night the spirit was again heard to stamp up the half-rotted stairs and enter the house. Instinctively Maria bundled the feather-bed about her ears, in order not to hear it. On retiring the fourth night the little widow could not court sleep, for she felt that the hour of reckoning with the grewsonwe spirit was drawing nigh. Shivering in spite of the soft, warm bed, she was attempting to muster her forces for the encounter. Outside a high wind was moaning and wailing in the pine trees. The full moon and bright, cheerful stars were hidden by a low, heavy, black cloud. Daisy, her fine, dusky cat was not asleep either, for this understand- ing little animal seemed to sense battle and was delighted. The minutes dragged by like hours as the two waited together, the old lady fearfully, the cat eagerly. Upon the stroke of twelve of the ancient timepiece on the mantel shelf heavy steps were heard mounting the shaky flight of stairs. The noisy, wavering step entered the low-ceilinged hall, passed Maria's very door and went into the chamber located at the extreme end of the corridor, a room which the dead man had occupied while living. - Mrs. Blom exhibited an extraordinary amount of courage by her brave actions, even though she was much afraid. She arose stiffly and lit the lamp that was in readiness, and with Daisy close at her heels she made her way into the hall, The small, flickering light of the kerosene lamp made weird shadows on the Swtg .mx fame' -learned 4-4-cfo. . quvvv U - U I ' 1-' :fi if 4' -'-123 5:5: -'::i..::-- --EZ-.2:E 1352, 5255 ai: li- hr: ,:3:1----- -. ng X- - v I .

With a trembling hand she opened the door, which squeaked and groaned on its old hinges, stretched out her thin arm so that the light would fall into the spooky, neglected bedroom. Seeing nothing unusual, the two entered very quietly. They looked under the old iron bedstead and under the dusty highboy, but saw nothing. As the widow opened the closet door, a sudden gust of air, apparently from nowhere, blew out her meagre light. The cat was heard suddenly to spit and growl fiercelyg then the maddened ,animal made a quick leap into the black hall and out o-f the door, opportunely blown open by the wind outside. Frightened thoroughly, the tiny woman was left, without her comrade and any light, to make her way to the small bedroom as best she could. ' After getting back to her chamber, Mrs. Blom peered into the inky darkness and called the cat in a shaky voice, but Daisy didn't come running at her mistress' call as she was wont to do. Feeling very lonely without her kitty snoring peace- fully near her, Maria again retired, but not to sleep. No, she was too excited and lonely to sleep. Daisy wasn't waiting at the door the next morning, nor did she return that evening or the following. But the spirit did not return either! The old woman was very much depressed because of the absence of Daisy. The third evening, the large cat, with a gleam of triumph in her green eyes, returned to her loving mistress. The joy of their reunion must have been indeed pathetic to witness. . A few days later with the faithful cat at her heels as usual Maria was clean- ing the room that the spirit had been so interested in when she found in the numerous, large pockets of Mr. Lund's old coat a sum of money large enough to keep her and Daisy in luxury for the rest of their lives. With a smile that started in her beautiful gray eyes and spread gradually over her kind, wrinkled face, Maria Blom looked down at puss and said, To think that we chased that supposedly annoying spirit away so unceremoniously when it was only trying to show us the money. Daisy glanced up and blinked her large eyes with a look of complete understanding. My Friend By EVA BOEGLIN Have you a friend who is ready to aid you in any task you undertake?

Francois had struck the sneering face of the Marquis with the open palm of his hand. Monsieur le Marquis jumped to his feet, very white save for the slowly reddening imprint where the compact of Francois' hand marred his handsome face. You realize, Monsieur, what you have done, he said in a low voice thick with passion. My seconds, motioning toward M. le Viscount and M. le Duc, are at your disposal. Francois acquiesced with a nod and, turning scornfully on his heel, strode quickly out of the inn amid the hushed babble of voices. M. le Marquis, his tall graceful body magnificently arrayed in deep blue velvet, carelessly tossed his cape over his broad shoulders and with a cruel smile, which marred the delicate, chiseled beauty of his face, raised Z1 goblet filled with rich red wine to his lips. Emptying it at a draught, he Hung a gold coin on the table to the bowing figure of the innkeeper and, closely followed by his two com- panions, made his way with regal dignity to the door. Francois reached home, his heart burning with anger. Through his feverish mind one thought revolved incessantly, the vile insult of the Marquis to his sweetheart, Denise. Twice had this man been involved in the life of Den.ise and himself. He would have revenge. The mind of Francois was in a turmoil. He paced the tloorg he could not rest. He tried to read, but could not. On every page that smiling mask of the Marquis haunted him. ' He thought of that memorable moonlight meeting, that secret tryst, in the garden of Denise, before the chateau. He joined again in the soft rippling laughter of Denise, in that silver shimmering light of the moon-beams Hitting through the dark shadows of the rustling trees as they walked joyously along the quaint gravel path. Francois clasped again the slender, submissive form of Denise against his breast and heard that deep sigh of content which had thrilled him. He heard again the heart-breaking sobs that convulsed her when he had told her of the unfortunate removal of his regiment far from the city. He saw again the sudden appearance of his rival, the Marquis, from the nearby shadows, the startled cry of Denise, the Marquis' last pleas for her love, her refusal, and then, his vehement threat of death. He thought of the sweet concern of his sweetheart, and how he had quelled her growing anxiety with laughter and with a happy flood of kisses. A month had passed. Francois, toasting the beautiful Denise in an old inn of Amiens, had heard that cool loathing voice uttering that vile insult. W'hirling around, Francois, his eyes blazing with anger, had slapped the hated face of the Marquis. Why wasn't he calm? Why did the duel keep looming up in his mind? Was he afraid? No. He had done right. He had defended the honor of Denise, his future wife. VVhy did that accursed face of the Marquis haunt him? With a great effort he calmed his mind and summoned two of his friends, his seconds, to him. They entered and congratulated him. The arrangements of the duel were discussed. Sixty eight ' . . ' - .

Impossible! The Marquis is the best shot in France. 'Twould be unfair, argued the other. Rapiers then, ejaculated Francois curtly. At dawn tomorrow in the Bourbon Woods. Excellent ! exclaimed his friends. You are one of the best blades in France. Au revoir. They were gone. , At one hour before dawn Francois awoke from his troubled slumber. His mind was calm now, but still he felt a vague fear deep in his heart. Dressing quickly and swallowing a light repast, he prepared himself for the two mile stroll to the woods. Stepping out into the open, he took a deep breath of the cool, crisp, invigorat- ing air. He walked briskly. Everything was animated with the joy of living, for it was springtime. The fading shadows of the new budded trees, the waving foliage of the nearby bushes, the joyous gurgling of the rippling brook, the happy chirping of the birds overhead, the sweet-smelling, soft springy earth underfoot, all instilled in Francois a desire to live. Again the thought of Denise, of those soft, violet colored eyes, shining from under her sweet straw bonnet. He thought tenderly of his dear old mother in Toulouse, dreaming of her only boy and reading her prayer book. He remembered his happy childhood days fishing in the Garonne. His reverie-was suddenly broken. He shook the pleasant dreams from his eyes, for he had reached the duelling grounds. k Already the Marquis was there, and on seeing him, Francois' anger arose within him. With a cold nod by way of greeting the two men took off their coats and chose their rapiers. Their swords engaged, the game of death had begun. Two long sword-blades leaped and whined like living things as they crossed and clashed with the speed of lightning. The skill of the two duelists was won- derful. Moving nimbly and bending and swaying like two mighty springs, the swordsmen, their long slender blades darting in and out like the fangs of serpents. thrust and parried in perfect rhythm. Faster and faster grew the furious pace. The two masters of the sword, encircling each other like two monstrous spiders, tried desperately to ensnare each other in the deadly meshes of the web. Under the pressure of the grueling test, Francois, his favorite tricks foiled by the Marquis, slowly lost his previous composure. Enraged by the marble-like coolness of the Marquis, Francois rushegl at his opponent. The two swords locked. Beads of cold sweat broke out on t11e fore- heads of the two men as thev strained with renewed vigor, a ,grating sound, then snap. A sword flew through the air, forced by the terrible impact, and fell five yards away. It was that of Francois. Francois stood unflinching while the cruel Marquis with diabolical deliberation drove the gleaming blade through his defenseless body. Wiping disdainfully the crimson blood from his sword with a white silk handkerchief, Monsieur le Marquis calmly rearranged his ruffled lace at his throat, tilted his three cornered hat at a greater angle, redonned his full-skirted coat of deep blue velvet, leisurely mounted into his luxurious cushioned coach, and cheerfully drove away. The body of the noble Francois, already rigid in death, lay tragically in the warm radiance of the rising sun. Somewhere high in the heavens, floating on the cool morning air, rose the high, clear notes of a soaring lark, pouring forth joyfully its melodious song to its mate.

' I' love the light of a windy moon, - When the black trees surge to the sky- When each swift puff Sweeps a dark cloud's fluff Like a cobweb across the moon, Like a smoke-twist across the sky. I love the light of a yellow moon, When the black palms nod their plumes, And the wind's hot breath, like the mist of death Stirs a swaying leaf with its feverish breath, And the fireflies weave on their shadow-looms, Till the dawn-winds croon. Oh, many a moon, and many a moon Has gleamed from the star-pierced skyg And I love to sit, when the sky is blue, Or the cold chill grey that the sea-winds knew, And think of the thousands of years since you .

The boat was one of those many products of Detroit, having come from that city nearly eight years before. The soft purr of the motor had since changed to a metallic chug chug as it made its way down one of Missouri's state roads. Chug, chug chug, zam, biti' zowie, pooof and Hopping Henry would move no more. The chauifeur, a dark complexioned man, whose name was Ulysses S. Lee, jumped out and started to crank it, but with no success. The wheels seemed crippled, the engine, when it did run, hit on two cylinders, the very body for all of its paint seemed to cry out, Darling, I am growing older. Well, said Ulysses, I think this spot is gonna be ouah home fo' de next ten houahs mo' or less. The other two boys were not in the least perturbed. It had been the fifth time that Hoppin' Henry had died on the road only to be resuscitated by sup- plying a little gasoline, replacing an ignition wire, or cleaning spark plugs, so they decided to let the matter drop. . The first law of nature is self preservation. The Three Musketeers found that out. Fifteen minutes later they missed U. S. Lee. I wonder where our valet, butler, cook, mechanic, chauffeur, and handy man went F thought George. He was here a minute ago. Oh! Ulysses ! he shouted. Heah I is, suh, answered the man in question, and ouah suppah also, suh. In his coat, to the general surprise, was a rooster, lately the pride of a nearby farmer's flock, which he had gotten with the ease and assurance that goes with long practice. In the middle of their meal they were interrupted. Good evening, gentlemen, said a man, rather tall and broad in build. I hope you enjoyed your meal. Thank you, sir, we did, said Bob, the oldest of the three. I am glad to hear that, returned the man, because it is going to cost you twenty-five dollars. That rooster was a prize Rhode Island Red. The boys were stunned. Ulysses was groggy. The three hurriedly fished through their pockets, but the sum of their efforts was a meager three dollars and thirteen cents. Well, said Bob, fearing to break the silence, we haven't the amount. The farmer mused for a minute and then said, It's either jail or work, boysg you have your choice. Heretofore work and the boys were strangers, but Bob decided for them all. We would rather work it out, sir, he said, it will be quite an adventure, don't you know.

All I know is that I am short of help and the weeds are getting the best of me, he said rather sadly. Now if I had a little help- Oh! We'll help you all right, but We d0n't know a thing about farming, said George. Yessuh boss, ah kin tell the kind of chicken it am by lookin' at its aig, added Ulysses with a smile. Well, come along then, and I'll hitch up the team and haul that contraption to the farm. Come along then, you can't learn too young how to hitch up a horse. Thethree boys followed, feeling that they would be of a little use anyway, which is not a common feeling with a farmer's city relations, who think that they can do everything. It was hard to show the boys how to hitch up the team, but after a bare hour and a half they mastered the art. By the time they finished towing the Hopping Henry back to the farm- house, the skies began to turn to a darker hue and before long night came. The house was a small one and so the boys had to sleep in the barn. When morning came, an aroma of fried bacon and eggs came to their nostrils. They dressed with alacrity and were seated at the table inside of five minutes. The best part of the day passed in instructions on running a cultivator. Ulysses stayed at home and was a general help around the house. When his work was done, he would tinker with the dilapidated Henry. Their time was soon coming to an end. The farmer and his family became attached to the boys, the boys liked the farm and live stock, and Ulysses very often attended sociables in town. Every evening he visited the town and soon had other negroes wishing for their next week's pay in advance. They certainly were not versed in the guiles of the city game of African Mah jongg. On the fifth day the boys bade the little farm farewell and chugged down the road again after having made promises to visit next year. George, what are you sitting there like a bump on a log for? asked Bob. Oh, said he, I was just thinking what an inspiration Grace, the farmer's daughter, is. Seventy-two l , ' '3 ..... , .

A - rx. ie - , 1 Tliefe S 8 W8 By HAN NAH JACOBSON But you'll not suffer, mother, John declared with determination. I know Dad owned little besides his fishing vessel. I'll leave college and go to work l The blizzard of the early winter raged along the Wisconsin coast and shrieked the news that had come over the wires that day. The Patricia had gone down in the storm that had swept Lake Michigan, and Dad and his crew had perished. Dad, Mother, and John had lived together, a little inland on the coast, and together they had shared one another's joys and sorrows. Dad and Mother had withstood many hardships in order to send their son to college. And now John realized that he had to find work in order to support his mother. He had to leave his unfinished year at college behind him and pursue another course, following in the footsteps of his forefathers. john, himself, loved the daring life of the fisherman, but Mother had decided that her son was to be something different. She knew too well what Dad had undergone. She urged John to find work in the village. Surely he was capable. Following his mother's advice, he trudged slowly to the village with its row of stores, inquiring if work could be had. At the grocery he was refused the position when the proprietor heard he was a college student, saying, We have had enough of your kind. The last clerk I had was a college student, and after being here a week he disappeared suddenlv, carrying off the Saturday's receipts. After several unsuccessful attempts in the village, he was too discouraged to return to his home. Wandering about aimlessly, he fo-und himself among the tall, moaning trees of the -lumber camp on the Wisconsin River. Here he would surely be able to get work felling the trees. Rejected even here, he turned to wander homeward, when the buzz, buzz of the sawmill across the river gave him new courage. He would try at that place the next day. XfVitl1 the faint glimmer of hope that this thought brought to him, his spirits rose and he quickened his pace, anxious to tell Mother of his new plan. The cheerful greeting of his mother, the pleasant warmth of the spotless kitchen, and the odor of appetizing food soon made his spirits rise higher. When, however, Mother heard of his plan, she was quick to tell him of the lasting enmity that had existed between the owner of the mill and Dad. Fearing that the result of his application would doubtless be disappointing, she tried to dissuade him from carrying out his plan. But Mother gave her consent and the next day John was seen tramping half despairingly over the slippery logs to the buzzing sawmill. He thought of the dark and dusty figures that must be working there. He also thought of the jolly times at college, but he determined to work and save, and some day return to complete his education. Could he now enter that mill with its dust and dirt, its noise and clamor, to seek employment? 'Would he ever become as sturdy, brawny, and well built as those he had envied on the college eleven? However, he gritted his teeth and struggled on, the sleet-like snow piercing his face. Stumbling, slipping, he soon reached the mill with its monotonous din. Fearfully, hopefully, he entered. In one corner, behind a desk piled high with papers, sat a little old man, absent-mindedly chewing the stub of a cigar. His dark, beady eyes seemed to be looking into the distance. Somewhat startled on seeing john before him, he sat up quickly, as if awakened from a dream. Seventy-three -uve. 4 ana- N aww' : -Annu J- nv 'L' ,our M 'www U -azz-.

I What can I do for you P john was encouraged by Mr. Evans' friendly tone and manner, and he went on. I must support my mother, and I want work. Mr. Evans had one vacant position, and he was willing to employ the first one who applied for it. But, on hearing john's name, his attitude changed and he said with determination, No, we have no work for you. John tried to explain, but Mr. Evans' word was law, and soon he found himself still without work, plodding dejectedly homeward over the logs. By this time, a thin sheet of snow had spread over the logs, and although the snow had stopped falling, the darkened clouds seemed to forecast an oncom- ing storm. The north wind suddenly arose, sweeping through the barren forest with a sound like that of a trumpet. The dry leaves whirled in eddies through. the air. There was a melancholy and continual roar in the tops of the tall pines. Only here and there a flickering light from some distant hut threw shimmering rays pf light out into the snow. The logs rolled fast, sometimes bouncinag and jumping, requiring expert men with pevees to catch and handle them. very- thing seemed to add to the displeasure and discomfort of downcast john. The booming of the logs turned to a rumbling, a ttunbling, and a thundering! An unexpected shout behind him and the crash of a log that had jumped the track brought john to a sudden stop. The log traveled fast, in great leaps and bounds, shaking the other logs from their places. In a moment John realized the danger he was in, and turned to rim. just then he saw before him, directly in the path of the log, a little girl. He dashed on toward her, the dangerous logs rolling from beneath him. He grabbed herg he stumbled. Together they sank into the icy waters. The bouncing log banged above them and was gone. John fought with the wedging logs until he gained an opening, and struggled to the top. He walked carefully back toward the mill. There someone snatched her from him, and turned away, saying, Oh, my Anne, my little Anne! John was bewildered at the suddenness with which she was snatched from his arms and did not know until later that it was Anne Evans, the daughter of the mill owner. It was her father who had taken her so suddenly. He had seen her great danger, had been too far away to save her, and had seen the heroic deed of the one whom he had refused employment. That evening the old Mr. Evans called at john's home in the outskirts of the village. And a few days later, John held a trustworthy position in the mill, faithfully supporting his mother and enthusiastically saving to complete his education. Seventy-four l .

The Fortune Hunt By RUTH JACOBSON But, Jean, I don't want to go to the haunted house first. I think I'd die of fright. I can't see why we can't both go together, said an attractive young girl about eighteen years old. The small, pretty person addressed as jean responded, her blue eyes flashing determination, VVell, all right, Mabel, old dear, I'll go first then, and I'm going tonight even though I do feel kind of shaky. She crunched a handful of fudge and then proceeded, You know very well that we can't go together, because Grandpa's will said that we must take turns in searching for the key, and after dark, too. As she spoke, Jean convincingly shook the feet which dangled over the banister of the upper veranda of a beautiful, dignified-looking southern' home. But, Jean, it might rain, was the rejoinder from the wicker chair. Well, what's the difference? I'm sure I won't melt, though I might come flying back without a moment's notice. My, but this fudge is heavenly, was the reply, as she plunged her small, white fist into the pan of candy. But, Jeanie, I can't understand why Grandpa was so particular about those pearls, said Mabel. Do stop munching a minute, will you? Jean replied, You know that Grandpa hated cowards, and he didn't want a foolish person who believes in ghosts to have those valuable pearls. Her wee, square-toed oxford banged viciously at the railing. You know, dear, that the necklace is worth a young fortune. Well, I'd rather give up the pearls than go under such circumstances, said Mabel. You can go and have the pearls all to yourself. But, Mabel, it won't be half as much fun without competition. Be a sport and take your turn tomorrow night. You wouldn't be called a quitter, I'm sure. If Grandpa saw that you were cowardly, he'd be ashamed, and so would yoru. Mabel replied, I'd do it, if we could go together. Say, Jean, nobody would know, if we did that. Cou1dn't we manage it ? Jean's honest voice was shocked as she answered, That would be violating Grandpa's and everyone else's trust in us. Probably no one would know about it, but our consciences would. All rightg I suppose I'll have to take my turn to evade the title of coward. I'l1 go, though I don't say when or how. Here's my hand on it. VVell, either one of us must find the key and map of the place where the pearls are hidden. May the best man win, was Jean's speech as she tossed her golden, curly head. Ditto, sweet cousin. Here comes jack, so good luck and au revoir in case you don't come back. The two girls parted, each to her own diversion. While we await the com- ing of night and It-:an's hunt at the haunted house, a few words may be said Seventy-five vifi i : :1'jf2i::f ::- 1 ---f -- ' ' -5 mae. av.. ...... , g aan .e. L... ...ag I, v,,, 1 L.,f,w W aa . Old Mr. Carpenter had left a will which provided comfortably for his two only grandchildren, Jean Carpenter and Mabel Wells. One clause of the will stated that a valuable necklace of matched pearls had been hidden by the eccentric old man several years before in a certain deserted and said-toebe haunted house. It would become the proud possession of the one grandchild who would find the key and chart to the hiding-place of the pearls. The girls must take turns in looking for the key and go alone to search at night. Mr. Carpenter had left these extraordinary directions, because he hated cowards and did not want a coward to have the priceless necklace, valued more because it was an heirloom. Don't be a goose. You know that nothing will hurt you, silly. You've got to go on, because Mabel looked as though she thought you were too cowardly to go, were the thoughts that ran through Jean's pretty head as she sturdily trudged along on her way to a night's adventure at the haunted house. There were not stars or moon that night. The sky was black as pitch, and heavy clouds scudded back and forth like restless ghosts. Though the night was dark, everything was visible, as there was a strange, eerie, sickly-yellow glow over everything, the forerunner of a heavy storm or cyclone. Jean's flickering lantern cast mysterious shadows. The atmosphere was deafeningly still, as if waiting for something Qno one but the fates knew whatl to happen. Jean tried to keep up her courage by whistling boyishly, but her tune seemed to echo back a thousandfold in volume. Everything unnerved her. Gradually a breeze began to stir, and by the time Jean came in sight of the estate, the breeze was a strong wind. The leaves of the trees whispered fore- bodingly, and, as she surveyed the house from the road, she thought she saw a light flash upstairs. Only her imagination she thought. No! It came again and did not flash off for fully a minute. Jean breathed hard and fast and stood still in terror. When the light did not flash again, she said aloud, 'LI must have been dreaming. The sound of her own voice frightened her. She approached the house slowly and uncertainly. It was a blistered, shabby- looking, old southern home of medium dimensions. The place had a desolate and yet haughty air, as if it was proud of what it used to be and at the same: time very much ashamed of its condition then. Ivy climbers rambled over some portion of the house, as though they were trying to hide the secrets within. The barren panes of the windows stared blankly, watching the estate with never- ceasing vigilance. The open shutters hung dejectedly. Jean stepped onto the low, old-fashioned, southern veranda. The upper portico sagged pitifully. The pillars seemed too old and tired to hold up the burden which they had proudly borne for years. Cautiously, slowly, Jean opened the old door which had once gleamed with a shiny knocker-now long rusty. The hinges creaked inharmoniously. Holding her lantern high, the girl peered into the dim reception hall. There was nothing in it but some odd, old pieces of furniture. She walked in. On her right she perceived a winding staircase. She paused, wondering whether she should ascend or stay below. She must have decided upon the latter, for, carrying her lantern around the room, she surveyed everything she could see from the threadbare old rugs of untraceable pattern to the peeling, yellowed wall paper and the rat-bitten legs of the marred furniture. The flicker- ing light made eerie shadows. Seven ty-six Q..-qv. -crow :- -L -ov I 4-nap N H --nu- A great shadow with long, groping arms seemed to be bearing down upon her. It was only the umbra cast by the ancient clothes-tree. The shadows in the corners and under the chairs were black, and the spaces beyond the gaping doors which led into untold mystery were black. Jean shuddered as she won- dered what things might be lurking in the other rooms. She shivered when she observed that the old chandelier cast its shadow upon her like a warning of something vague and mysterious to happen. Then, too, there were noises which made her nervous. Rats could be heard scurrying back and forth in an adjoining closet. The floor creaked weirdly with every step. The windows rattled, and the shutters banged noisily back and forth. The trees outside whispered loudly in a vain attempt to tell aloud the mysteries of the place. Finally, after satisfying herself that the reception hall held no horrors, Jean started for an adjoining room. The door by which she had entered flew open. It was the wind, but it took several minutes fo-r Jean to regain enough composure and common-sense to go back and shut the door. The whole outside world seemed in chaos, and the interior of the house was still in comparison. Puff! Gut went Jean's lantern! After standing undecidedly in the same place for quite an interval, the girl was shocked by a sudden clap of thunder and a Hash of lightning. A storm burst without, and she knew that the fates had decided that she must stay, for no one could venture out into the storm. What was that? The even tread of footsteps on the floor above. Back and forth, back and forth they went. Sometimes they stoppedg then they would begin again. jean was frozen to the spot, but a great terror told her not to stay in the hall where the stairs were, so she went as quietly as she could into the next room. Her teeth chattered so loudly that she thought they could be heard all over the house. Something soft crushed under the girl's groping feet. Her blood ran cold, but, as the lightning flashed, she looked down and saw-yes, only a moth-eaten bear rug. Relieved, yet shaky, Jean sat down in an old arm chair to fortify her mind before beginning her search. The silence within and the great uproar without were appalling. The shutters banged noisily against the house, shaking its old foundations. Since Jean had no means of relighting her lantern, she could only see the room by occasional flashes of lightning. She perceived that the room must have o-nce been a library or den. Ranged around the room were empty book-shelves. A dark, forbidding fireplace occupied one side. jean imagined that a great, dark shape would jump out from the fireplace. The old clock on the mantel ever pointed to the hour of twelve. While she sat quietly in her chair, the light- ning flashed less often, and the rumbling thunder seemed to recede. Suddenly a dark, formless, shapeless object issued from the fireplace and fiitted blindly around the room. Terriiied, the girl crouched low in her chair. The thing fit didn't seem as though it could be anything but a thingj found its way back to the fireplace and did not appear again. The terrorized girl gradually grew calm and laughed at her fear, for shethen knew that the thing must have been at bat. She was about to rise to go about her search, when the haunting footsteps began, this time over the library. A crash! A piercing scream from the Hoor above! Breathing heavily, jean ran into the reception hall and was blindly' groping her way for the door when she looked up.! A ghost!

A door which she had perceived before looked like an avenue of escape. The frightened girl groped for the knob, flung herself through the door against a blank wall. She sought the adjoining wall with her hand and touched something bony-a skeleton! Jean screamed wildly and jumped back against the wall. She panted and sobbed like a child, as she leaned against her prison barrier. Something cold dangled against her neck, but her senses were almost too dazed and frozen by fright to feel anymore. She turned around to face the wall. The closet door opened. A light flashed, and jean vaguely clutched at the Wall. She grabbed hold of a hook or knob fshe knew not whatj, but the wall cracked, and the girl fell, grasping the hook in her hand. A shaking voice spoke. It is only I. Don't be frightened. jean lay stunned upon the Hoor, tightly clutching something in one of her clenched lists. The voice came nearer and pleaded chokingly, Wake up! O, Jean, don't die! It would be my fault. The tone ended in a wail and sob. - jean moved restlessly and spoke incoherently. Gradually Qitseemed like hoursj she grew calm and opened wide her eyes. She perceived her cousin Mabel bending over her with glistening- drops in her expressive brown eyes. As strength returned jean, was wont to laugh at her fright, but Mabel, re- joicing that her cousin was well, half-laughed and half-sobbed, Jean, O jean, it was my fault! I thought you were the coward, but I'm the coward and sneak. I came to look for the key Without telling you. I was upstairs and fell, and that frightened you so. Can you forgive- Mabel, please forget it. I was crazy to let fear grip me like that, said matter-of-fact jean, who hated scenes. Then for the first time she noticed the hook in her hand, and on the hook was the cold thing that had dangled against her neck, a key with a yellowed note attached to it. Surely the fates play queer tricks. With a squeal she read the note which gave directions as to where the jewel-case containing the pearls was hidden. With beating hearts the two girls followed the directions and found the pearls, jean's pearls, a glittering, glistening necklace in a jewel-case hidden under a brick of the fireplace. The case bore the inscription, To the victor belong the spoilsf, And there was an ,invaluable diamond ring for Mabel with a note at- tached, For my less fortunate granddaughter.

Two pairs of feet crept slowly, but surely closer together. Closer, closer, and closer they came until, at the base of the front staircase, their owners met. Er, a a a why a a who're you P said the owner of one pair of feet. The other ovsmer, surprised, frightened, and at a loss for words, could only reply, Oh! and may I ask who're you ? Both men were well dressed and wore dark suits. Neither advertised his trade by his appearance. The first man was tall and well proportioned, while the second was rather short and stockyl Both were experienced men fthe first being some ten years the second's senziorj and inclined to use their brains rather than their brawn. Both men were confused on confronting one another, and, naturally, their first impulse was to join in combat. Nevertheless, each man on observing that his compeer was unarmed, well dressed, and, in short, possessing no apparent proclivity toward violence, though he appeared sufficiently able to offer it, chose either to accomplish that for which he had come, or quit the scene without any disturbance. Each man thought, of course, that the other was in some way con- nected with the owner, but how and to what degree, was left therefore for each to find out. Why, I'm Tom Lathrop. And you . . . ? said the first man. The second man, not a little disturbed at the candid, yet vague statement, replied with some forced dignity, My name is Robert Lacey. And then on the moment, in a fit of recklessness, and with an air of defiance prompted by the fear of discovery, mixed with a desire to have done with his adversary, he added, May I ask what, brought you here? Now Lathrop was at sea. He could not formulate a plan of attack or defense, so he continued to prevaricate. Why, I was told to come here, he answered. And, desperate as he was to get in possession of the situation, he asked, What, may I ask, brought you. here? Lacey, evading the question, tacitly returned with, Told to come here? For what purpose may I ask ? This evasion disconcerted Lathrop and thrust him into an unfavorable posi- tion. He decided, as a last resort, to feign an intimacy with the owner of the home. What if he was discovered? Matters could not culminate in anything more than an affray anyway, and surely he was not afraid of his adversary, so he replied: Q Man, I'm Tom Lathrop, an intimate friend of Mr, Downs, the owner of this house. . , Ah! it was out. He waited anxiously for Lacey to showany signs .of doubt, or violence, for he was ready to attack him. A brief silence intervened, only to intensify Lathrop's anxiety. 'I ' Eighty-one L Q L-i .

Nevertheless, his intellect dominated his actions. He decided to play his hand for all it was worth. He would play the old con game. Mr, Lathrop ! he said. VVhy, yes, I remember you! Indeed! I'm Robert Lacey. fBoth shake hands rather heartily, each to impress the other.j Don't you remember when Mr. Downs introduced me to you at the pony track? Lathrop! Why I remember the name distinctly ! Lacey had noticed the flickerof doubt and hesitation in the eyes of Lathrop while he was speaking. That was the reason he inserted his last sentence. It would be a refuge if his scheme failed, to arouse Lathrop to a rcognition of their acquaintance. Now Lathrop was up a tree. He saw plainly that Lacey knew Downs and that Lacey thought he, Lathrop, was an acquaintance of his. If he admitted this acquaintance, he knew he would put himself in jeopardy of being unable to answer any questions Lacey might put to him, so he played safe. While they were still shaking hands Lathrop said: How do you do, Mr. Lacey. I'm sorry, but really, right off hand I just can't place you. Mr, Lathrop, said Lacey, don't you remember when Mr. Downs wagered fifty dollars that Black Bird would come in last, and won ? Lacey knew Lathrop wouldn't remember. He was confident of the fact. He was desperate. This question would provoke a reply at least, and anything' was better than silence. No reall , Mr. Lace 'ou, I am sure have mistaken me for some one , . y , else, perhaps another man with my cognomen. ' Ah! this was a good fee1er. Lathrop noticed that its reaction on Lacey was favorable. Apparently he was safe. Too, this was just the kind of a remark Lacey wished to hear. Apparently he too was safe. Perhaps, replied Lacey, but at first I thought surely you were he. Same height and general features and . . . Well, it's true I only met the gentleman that one time! Very nice fellow. A-a-a, quite a coincidence-the names! Indeed, and our meeting here is yet a greater coincidence! May I ask what brought you here ? Oh! why a-a you see, said Lathrop, I live a few doors from where Mr. Downs is summering, and, as I was coming to the city for a few days, he olfered me the use of his house. He did not mention you to me. Lathrop now knew that his own statement would either make, or break him. He thought, What if Lacey is living here? Yet, why are the blinds down in all the rooms P Ah, said Lacey, nor did he mention you to me. Mr. Downs surprises me in that respect. It a . . . Lathrop, still in hot water, could not refrain from breaking in with, By the way, what brought you here ? Oh, Mr. Downs sent me a letter this morning, said Lacey, asking me if I would send him a certain suit case that he had forgotten on leaving the city. He did not recall where he had put it, so I'1l have to hunt for it. I was just looking for . . . He stopped short. He recalled that Lathrop was in the house when he came in. QBoth men were standing at the base of a Hight of stairs, on either side of which were entrances leading to other rooms. In other words they were in the reception room, each man in the first instance, having Eighty-two Mil 31 at 1'-3' .tl .W dl ,.. 11 gi ffl H! :Li ,gi 1 l 1 1 '11 lil v 1 . 1 .11 1 .1 ...1 1 1? :1 .V ., I 1 J ' f' 1.

He hoped Lathrop would over- look it. Lathrop had understood what Lacey intended to say, and, being not the least bit skeptical, continued with: Then let me help you find it. Fine, said Lacey, as he was none the less anxious to get away from his unsuspecting compeer. Before he could say another word Lathrop had added: What say you look about upstairs while I search down here? Most likely you'll find it up there. All right, replied Lacey as he turned to ascend the stairs. Whc.w! said the same to himself as he closed the door of the first room behind him. That was a humdinger! It's a darn good thing he's such a sociable fellow, or my goose 'ud have been cooked. He swallowed everything, hook, line, and sinker. Lathrop retreated into the room from whence he had come. It was the dining room. Now for some fast work, said he. My this feels good! Mum! Solid Sheffield too! I'll just place it in this . . . I guess it's a pillowcase- and hunt for more while Lacey is looking for that bag. Lacey in the meantime was rummaging through the contents of a big desk. Some oil bonds, said he. Eh, can't cash those. Ah! five big Liberty bonds! Kinda foolish of you, Mr. Downs. Can't expect the ladies to leave any trinkets of value aroun' when they're going on a vacation. It will be a little embarras- sing for me to get the silverware with the guy downstairs. I'd better find that bag first. He crept downstairs. Confound, said he, did they take their silver with them? Eh! No jewelry except a few gold and silver plated brace- lets, a few cheap rings, and ear-rings, a jewel case, and a boudoir clock. What a haul. Lathrop in the meanwhile had stolen up stairs with his pillowcase. One room was searched and nothing was found. Another room was searched and nothing was found. And then another and still another. What can be the meaning of this P he cried. Not even a bit of jewelry! Not even a cheap bracelet! Nothing except these oil bonds which I can't cash !-I wonder where Lacey is? Must have gone downstairs. Lacey looked in every room. He found nothing and was therefore not a little peeved. He wondered where Lathrop went to. Must have gone up stairs, thought he. Well, I'm finished, thought he. Here's where I duck. He did not get a chance to move five feet before Lathrop had turned from the stairs, empty handed, and accosted him with: ' Ah! so there you are, Mr. Lacey. I see you have found the bag. Yes, aaa, said Lacey, I found it and came down to tell you. I'll have to be going now. He started unconcernedly towards the front door. But your hat! broke in Lathrop. How forgetful of me! said Lacey, not a little abashed. Both started to hunt about the dining room for the cap which Lacey said he had. Some five minutes or more were spent thus and yet no cap was found. Lacey laid his bag down, of course, so as not to attract attention. The spot happened to be in the dining room, right off the hall. The search spread throughout the adjoin- ing rooms. Lathrop did not let Lacey get out of his sight. He was helping to find a cap which he himself had hidden. Presently he spoke. Eighty-three .Yen-ov. - 4.4. -, gavrv Lx- .L :1 ' -ev 2. 4-vous , 'vw-no -A noun 'Hu 5 It rather looks as if you left it up stairs doesn't it, Mr. Lacey? said Lathrop in a sincere and confident tone. Yes, a, said the exasperated Lacey with a half hearted grin upon his face. I would have sworn, thought he, that I left it in that library before I met that guy. Well, I'll have to get it, said he. He tried to be cheerful for safety's sake. The minute he started up the stairs, Lathrop drew forth a cigarette and crossed slowly into the dining room. Now for that bag, said Lathrop as soon as he had gotten out of sight. I wonder what's in it ? No sooner had he said the words than the bag was open. Ummm! No wonder Downs wants this bag! No wonder I couldn't find anything! Ha! Trying to pull the wool over my eyes eh ? In an instant he had emptied the contents in a far corner of the room. Seeing the telephone, he dashed to it, yanked the cord out of the wall, and stuffed the 'phone and the directories into the bag. All was accomplished in a split second. At this juncture he turned to the buffet drawer and drew forth the cap. He then called to Lacey. ' Sa , old to , you are a bum huntsmanf' Lace wasted no time in comi d Y P . Y ng own. I went to sit in one of those chairs, continued Lathrop, pointing to the covered dining chairs which were drawn up close to the table, andpfound it. ' Well, what do you know about that! Ha l replied Lacey, madder than a wet hen. 'Tm ready at last I believe. He picked up his bag, and both walked to the door. I am very glad to have met you, Mr. Lathrop, and I hope to have the opportunity of seeing you again soon. He opened the door. Yes, you bet, answered Lathrop. I'll stay here tonight, and if I can manage all my affairs tomorrow, I'l1 go home on the evening train. Both shook hands and parted. After Lathrop closed the door he flew up stairs to a bedroom in which he had placed his pillowcase. He grabbed another valise and dashed to the dinin room. Having exited through a side window, he went towards the alley. all-ie ashman, the iceman, and huckster were in it. That was too big a crowd for Lathrop, so he stole to the front of the house. No one was in sight, so he walked rapidly away. After passing six or seven houses he turned around. The coast was clear. No one around except some little children. ' All's well, said Lathrop half aloud as he strode on. That was an easy job! Ha! The poor fool! , Yes, said a. calm, low, but clear voice. Lathrop turned on the instant and saw three feet behind him a revolver and a star behind it. Thus, Lacey and Lathrop parted, the first going home with the telephone, while the latter went to jail with nothing. x Eighty-four 2 ,i . ,E it ,.

Can't chu. see I'm a robber-a iierce one--a pirate? Shame on you, Billy, for pickin' on a girl. You're afraid to pick a tight with the boys so you try 'n rob me ! I'll bet I ain't afraid of no boys. I'll bet you are. Any way if Bobby was here, he wouldn't let you hurt me. I like him. He's a nice boy, not a toughy like you. Why here he comes now ! And down the street came Bobby, all dressed up in white socks, a frilled collar, turned-up straw hat, goggles, and a cane. NVhen he joined the Golden- Haired-Girl and the Boy-Dressed-ln-Overalls he said, Hello, Marjory, hello, lfVilliam. . Now the Boy-Dressed-In-Overalls did not like to be called William, so he jeeringly said, Ha, ha, lookit the sissy with the cane. Oh Bobby and his cane, ha, ha. That cane is pretty. Are you jealous, 'cause you haven't got one ? said Marjory. Bobby, Billy is tryin' to rob me 5 he says he's a pirate. H'm. Girls are so silly. Don't you know there aren't any pirates? Well, he says he's one and he looks bad. I am a pirate, so there! My mother says I am, now. 'Nif you don't look out I'll rob you too. Guess I'1l have to kidnap Margy. Pirates always kidnaps peoples. So saying he grabbed the Golden-Haired-Girl by the arm and proceeded to try to p-ull her away with him. Ooo Bobby! Save me. Save me, cried the girl, so what could Robert do but try to pull her away from Billy? I'll fix you, he said and punched Billy with such a whack that he sat right down on the sidewalk. Why, why-er-a, spluttered Billy, too surprised to say a word. At last Ending his breath he said, Come and tight like a man. Take off your goggles 'n lay 'em down 'n your cane too 'n light like a man. ' Ooo Bobby, you show him! Lick 'em up, encouraged Margy. He's only a toughy. I like you, Bobby. Y ou've got to tight him. What was there to do but to fight, when his lady fair was bidding him fight for her hand, so he hurriedly did as Billy told him and started to fight. Let us pass over the sad details of the -fight. When Bobby emerged a few minutes later his immaculate socks were dirty and torn, his ruflied collar all mussed, he had a bloody nose and one eye was rapidly swelling shut. Now, you will be a smarty, will you? quoth Billy. Just for that you have to get me some cookies. That good kind your cook makes-lots of them. An' if you don't, I'll lick yu again. So said our hero. Bobby cringingly consented to get him some cookies, so picking up his glasses, hat, and cane, he hurriedly backed away into the yard of his home. Once inside the kitchen he had some misgivings. What if the cook should see him, but no, today was her day off. His mother? Was she around? No, he remembered she was entertaining callers in the living room. He slipped Eighty-five F I l Q ' W quietly into the pantry and stretched his neck looking for the cookie jar. Ah, there it Was, way up on the fourth shelf. Well, he couldn't reach it so he'd have to climb up. No, the shelves weren't strong enough to hold him. What should he do? Outside he heard an ominous voice yelling, Hurry with those cookies, you. Well, the next best thing was the flour bin. He could easily climb on that and then maybe he could reach the cookies. No sooner said than done and the next minute he was on tippy-toe, every muscle strained to reach the jar. Steady, steady, just a little more. Only half an inch. With every nerve taut he had just grasped the jar with his hand when he was suddenly lowered into the Hour bin with the cookies on top of him! So surprised was he that it took a minute or so for him to get his bearings, when suddenly he came too hearing a voice yell from outside, I'1l give yer fifty to be out with them cookies. One, two, three, four. He quickly tried to squirm his way out and in doing so knocked over the whole bin, spilling not only his whole self full of flour, but all the pantry Hoor. Suddenly he began to cry. What would his mother say when she saw this, but more important, what would she do? Sixteen, seventeen, eighteen. He was quickly reminded of the present, and wiping away his tears with a Houry hand, he picked up some cookies, blew the flour off of them, and picked his way to the door, leaving a snowy trail behind him. When he opened the door the count was forty-seven, and when he emerged on the porch it was fifty. He was greeted by a shriek and a Ha-Ha! Lookit Bobby, he fell into the flour barrel. Didja think that 'ud clean yu, Bob? Oh, Bobby, how funny you look. Your eye is black and all shut and your nose 's real big and red 'n your hair is white. Ha-ha! 'N just see, Billy, he's been cryin'g his face is all smeary. I'm so glad you dofn't cry, Billy. You're a regular fellow. I like you. The pair walked away with the cookies and the dejected Bobby stared after them. But such is the way of women!

Each 'of these pictures means to some fifty people a lasting memorial, which the years will make increasingly dear, of the happy times spent with the particular group to which he belonged at school. Certainly then some words of appreciation are due him to whose kind co-operation we owe these pictures-Mr. Pettersen. Of course our clubs seem important to us, but it is easy to see that they might seem insignificant to a busy man. Yet with each new semester Mr. Pet- tersen may be found standing valiantly at his post behind the camera trying faithfully to depict the countenances of students despite contortions that would try the patience of a saint. I think we all appreciate the fact that it is no easy task to photograph a group of people so bubbling over with mirth and hilarity that no two of them will stand still at the same time. Still for years Mr. Pet- tersen's sympathetic understanding has coped with the young people's foolish- ness, and the young people want him to know now that they do gratefully appre- ciate his kindness and look to him n-ot only as a mentor but as a staunch ally and friend. The first time some one does us a kindness our thanks are ready enough, but as that service becomes oft repeated some of us take it as a matter of course, and although we have a feeling of gratitude, we fail to express it. Knowing that we may rely on Mr. Pettersen's interest and help is a most comfortable feeling but 'let's not take him for granted! In the final rush of compiling our magazine we are apt to overlook those words of appreciation, so we take this opportunity of saying them now, in all sincerity. No matter how busy Mr. Pettersen has been, he has always found time to come and take pictures for us, so certainly our time is not so limited that we cannot take a few minutes to say Thank You, for hours of unseliish assistance.

The effi- ciency of this department has reached its highest point during this semester in spite of the fact that the new addition necessitated the appointment of many more guards, and entailed consequently, more work. Thirty-six seniors, juniors, and sophomores have been on duty each period, distributed over all parts of the building. They are ever watchful for strayed waste paper and strayed students 5-the former eventually find their way to the waste baskets, and the latter eventually land in their classes. The vigilant guards, with the loyal cooperation of the stu- dents keep the halls quiet and prevent any annoyances to the classes. The executive ability of Miss Semmelmeyer, faculty sponsor for the guard system, is largely responsible for its success. If, during the coming semester, every student will make it his business to cooperate with Miss Semmelmeyer, the success of the guard system will be continued. The guard marshals are to be commended for their excellent management and sense of responsibility. As the 4 Bs have already proved their ability in assuming the important task of guarding the halls, the 4 A's may with all confidence leave to them the work of the following semester. The Bull-Dog Club To promote sociability and to further military instruction among the fifteen R. O. T. C. officers is the aim of the Bull-Dog Club. The following officers were elected in September: Cadet Captain IRVING STOLLER President Cadet Captain WALTER Ross Vice-President Cadet lst Lieutenant BERLYN MCLAUGHLIN Secretary Cadet Captain JOSEPH RIVA ' Treasurer Cadet Captain ROBERT COLWELL Sergeant-at-Arms All the officers named above and the first sergeant are eligible for membership. Meetings were held the first and third Tuesday of every month in Portable F, tenth period. Under the direction of Cadet Captain, Frank Stonesifer, the fourth annual Cadet Hop, given by the Bull-Dog Club, was held Saturday, November l4, at Mayfair Field house. The guests present included Mrs. Curtis and her mother, Mrs. Walter Dax, Colonel Mould, and Colonel and Mrs. Whigam. Ninety 1 .A T e Literary Cluh A long-felt need was gratified in October when Miss Hill organized the Schurz Literary Club. During the semester it has flourished. and its members are wondering how Schurz ever got along without a literary organization. livery week a new prograin committee is appointed and the only regular officers are the secretary, Florence Stolley and treasurer, john Hogan. It is a lively club and something interesting is planned for each meeting. l'lays, stories, discussions, and parties occupy most of the time, but husiness matters are not sligfhted. John Hogan and his assistants have proved themselves able treasurers and the club is by no means financially depleted. W'ithout Miss Hill, however, the club would not he what it is. She arranged committee meetings, expeditions, plays and parties, and is a very well loved sponsor. Niuufy-onx The Arts Club The Arts Club, a new organization at Schurz, sponsored by Miss Robertson enrolled forty-four members and elected the following officers: FRANCES POE .................................. President FLORENCE BEIQBE ...................... Secretary- Treasurer It was decided that meetings should be held the sixth period in Room 355, on the first and third Wednesclay's of every month. The club's activities included several visits to the Art Institute for the purpose of viewing exhibitions which were later discussed at meetings. A Christmas party was given on December 16. A large number of the cartoons and illustrations for the Schurzone and Schurz World were made by club members. They also decorated the new gym for the senior prom.

This was the sixth presentation of the oratorio in the history of Schurz, and it was the lirst time that the orchestra accompanied all the choral singing. The concert was directed by Mr. Lagerquist. This was one of the rare occasions when the soprano soloist was a student at Schurz. lt is often the case that the soprano must be gotten from the pro- fessional ranksg but at this concert, Ethel Reid, a junior, sang the solos. Her voice is quite remarkable in its range and tone quality. The contralto solos were sung Gray. The accompanist was Mrs. Howard D. Lagerquist, also June Mrs. Lagerquist have taken part history of the chorus. The tenor by a member of the faculty, Miss Katherine Margaret VVilson-Lagerquist, June '17, Dr. '17, sang the baritone solos. Both Dr. and in most of the annual concerts given in the solos were sung by Dr. Leon jones. The Choral Society includes the evening school chorus consisting of twenty- seven members. Twenty-three of are teachers in the public schools, College.

Twelve professors from the University of Illinois gave audience to the chorus and orchestra in rehearsal and expressed keen appreciation of the work and its meaning to community life. Many of the listeners were moved to appreciative comment upon the excel- lence of the work. Dr. Leon james, the tenor soloist who had the day before sent Mr. Lager- quist flattering notice of a Messiah concert in a western state in which he had participated, where chorus and orchestra did excellent work, said it was not comparable with the Schurz performance.

S. 8: TQ became the new instructor. Colonel Mould's service in the regular army, including that at iVest Point, has covered many active years. The presentation of commissions to the advanced officers of the R. O. T. C. unit was one of his first official duties. The following oiiicers were assigned as commanders of the companies by Col. Mould: Company A ............ Fred Breitenbach, Captain. Russell Black, Captain. Company B .... ...Edward Stephani, Captain. Company C .... ...VValter Ross, Captain. Company D ............ Michael Michlewski, lst Lieutenant. Beginning with next semester the enrollment of the R. O. T. C. will be limited, acting under orders from headquarters, to 300 members, the present enrollment being approximately 290. Another order from headquarters instructs all officers ranking from 2nd Lieutenant up, to wear Sam Brown belts and leather puttees in order that they may be more easily distinguished from the cadets. The ofhcers who will be lost by graduation this semester are: Battalion Commander Cadet Captain Frank Stonesiferg Intelligence Officer Cadet Captain Irving Stollerg Joseph Riva, Allen Karman, Fred Breitenbach, Captainsg Ray- mond Freiwald and Israel Prosterman, Znd Lieutenants.

Pins were adopted by the club this semester, and all the members received one. A checker team was organized with Mr. Johnson as coach, and entered the checker contest in which various high schools took part. The team con- sisted of: Richard Stonesifer, Captain. Theresa Rasz, Manager. Anthony Sakelson, Arthur Bagge, David Schneider, Howard Olson, Marvin Gray and Roy Steimer. The chess team., Mr. Soderling, coach, did not advance as far as the checker team, since few persons play chess as well as checkers. Robert Colwell and David Schneider were two of the best chess players. Om' ffllllllffd Two 3 The BHIICI The band has been practicing daily for its second concert to be given some time next spring. Some of the more difticult selections include: Poet and Peasant, by Von Suppv. Scenes Pittoresquef' by Massenet. Orpheus Overture, by Ojfenbach. Carmen, by Bind. This type of music is unusual for a military band. The repertoire of such bands usually consists for the most part of stirring marches, and Schurz is proud of the standard which the boys have set under the leadership of Captain Guy NY. Reid. On Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, rehearsals are held in portable F, eighth period, and on VVednesday outside drill in band formation is held when the weather permits. The present enrollment of the band and band classes numbers from eighty to eighty-five members, of whom a number are cadet officers. These officers include: Joseph Riva and Allen Karnian, Captains: Berlyn McLaughlin, lst Lieutenant: Theodore Bo-gowicz, 2nd Lieutenantg John Haser, lst Sergeantg Theodore lankowski, Sergeantg Allen Karman, Drum Majorg VValter Fink, 2nd Drum Major. On account of graduation the band will lose Sanford Berg, Gus Ehnboru, Allen Karman, Joseph Riva, and Atwell Shinn. -- ., L , ,... J , ..,, .mga ,Nr ' as ' f ' I' J-.. is ,-yy A ' . fi 5, 1 Q33 t ..'

Burton was ably supported by the excellent work of the journalism classes. Howard Evensen and Lucille Luedke, associate editors, were indispensable members of the staff. Howard edited the Thanksgiving number of the paper, and Lucille the Christmas number. Barclay Graham successfully performed the duties of business manager. Fred Henning, circulation manager, brought the circulation up to 3,300. Charlotte Weber and Irving Stoller did admirable work in teaching the freshmen how to write their -own Frosh World. Florence Stolley wrote with an easy grace and a delightful humor. She wrote many long articles and livened up numerous dead ones. Gladys Wick was accurate, punctual, and responsible, and made the most of every bit of news that came her way. She wrote the best news stories. Elder Olson, Howard Evensen, and Dorothy Anderson were the best edi- torial writers. Elder struck a really literary note in the book reviews, and conducted the humor column successfully. Ernest Werbel was the sport editor in particular, and an excellent writer in general. Margaret Anderson, Melvin Keyser, Elizabeth Roe, and Wilbur Walkoe performed wonders as writers of heads Bonita Bookwalter was the best reporter. Wanda Gladowski, Fred Blank, and Florence Beebe made up the art staff. One Himdwd Four The Orchestra The orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Mason, has passed another busy and interesting semester. Most of the time was spent in practicing the accom- paniment for The Messiah concert which was given December 18 by the Chorus. To many of the orchestra members, the daily practice in the Assembly Hall has meant more than they fully realize, especially to those who came to Schurz without the slightest ear or interest for music and who are now playing with the orchestra. Mr. Mason oifered to teach those who were interested in either viola, cello, bass, or drum, so that they might become members of the orchestra. This has meant a start for many who are now playing with symphony orchestras, such as the Pittsburgh Symphony orchestra, and the Chicago Theatre orchestra. Mr. Mason has proved himself to be an excellent music master and has formed and improved an orchestra of which Schurz may well be proud. Many of the members who seem to realize this fact have retumed to evening school after graduation in order that they may still belong to the Schurz orchestra. The graduating class has claimed many members of the orchestra: Mary Louth, Clarence Brach, Hazel Guillot, Lorentz Adolphson, Robert Mason, Gus- tave Ehnborn, Sanford Berg, Allen Karman, Ernest Faigle, John Andersen, Gladys Heath, and Florence Carlson.

I can tell by the way you part your hair You'd shirk your homework, if you'd dare. But you're worried, I can plainly see. Come now, tell your troubles to me. And thus spoke the Senior, Alas, Alas- There's something wrong with my senior class. There's a vague hint of trouble in the air And I'm nearly dead with so much care. Why Charlotte was heard to laugh in the hall And Barclay was grouchy. But that isn't all- Paulsen for five minutes was as quiet as could be, Laib was seen to laugh with glee. Billy Poisner went to class And sat thro' it quietly. It came to pass That Hugo Speck came to school for a week Without missing a day. Our dignified, sleek Joe Riva was seen without a tie And Genevieve K. was heard to sigh. Edna Kruse was seen to frown. Even Marion Enerson looked cast down. Burlock Bones, for a minute looked blankg His heart to his shoes like an anchor sank, This is, indeed, a mystery- But never mind, just leave it to me. One Hundred Eight ir- rffife 'Wim' QQ ' ,,.

He hid himself where He could see someone rushing up the stair Scattering freshmen hereand there. Must be Anderson, or Beans, to tear Thro' lines like that, or maybe 'tis Captain Busch-he sure can whiz. But as the whirlwind nearer drew He saw just why those freshmen flew. 'Twas Allan, and the line he shot, Was creating wind by the carload lot. He saw Atwell Shinn, surrounded by girls, Some with straight hair and some with curls, All talking at once, and Bones, quietly Crept nearer-but all he could see Or hear was Oh Atwell-tell us-we're dying to And soon, Bones, disgusted, crept away. So He went to Clara, to see, if, with her sense She could tell whether he was dumb or just dense. And wonder of wonders she told him that she Was just as puzzled and curious as he. just as dumbfounded a little less gay Than usual he found Cora LeMay. Werbel stopped Charlestoning long 'nuff to puff To tell him, he too, had had enough. Enough of what P Bones cried in despair But Ernest was busy dancing there. Sylvia and Betty were too busy to talk In vain round the building poor Bones did stalk. Lucille Bell and Angela Schwarz just giggled As, disguised as a worm, ineto sight he wiggled. Evangeline Carlson and Io, in vain, To Burlock, asking, tried to explain But they both talked at once, and Bones, in despair Made an exit-and left them talking there.

Each -player is armed with a stick which is used for self-defense mainly, and in a pinch can be used as a cane. After the referee's whistle blows, the players start to run, hitting out on all sides with their sticks until the referee's whistle blows again. The object is to bruise as many opponents' legs as possible. A little white ball is kept moving between the different teams. First some one hits it one way and then someone hits it another. The players often change their mind about the direc- tion they wishythe ball to follow, and this is one of the reasons hockey is a favorite sport of women. The game lasts until one side gives in or gives out. Soccer Soccer is primarily played to teach one the use of his head. It requires much head work, in fact. After the referee's whistle blows the ball is kicked over the whole field mercilessly, each player knowing he doesn't own it. The ball must not be touched with the hands. This is why so many health officials approve of the game. Basketball To play basketball, one needs a course in boxing, baseball, anaesthetic dancing, and football. 1 The ball must either be kept bouncing on the floor or up in the air. The coach usually is. The players light for the ball as though they had never seen one before. The boys' uniforms are usually distressingly short. Some of the more modest boys wear knee guards.

That there is this lack of interest on the part of our girls is an assumption contrary to fact, inasmuch as there are 250 girls taking household arts work in Schurz. Whetlier or not they are eflicient, can be judged by looking into what they have accomplished during past semesters. Under the able tutelage of Miss Replogle, they have progressed wonderfully in sewing. The sewing department made the stage draperies in Room 220, a task greatly lightened by the use of two new electric sewing machines. The ma- terial alone cost 5575 and the final cost would have been much greater, had not the work been done by the sewing department. It also undertook the making of curtains for the office. A new fitting room, equipped with heater, long mirror, and curtains, greatly facilitates the work of the classes. Another department, of which Mrs. Sabin is the head, studies plain and fancy laundering and dyeing. Not the least of the domestic arts is cooking, and this department has thrived under the leadership of Mrs. Engels. There have been classes in cook- ery and dietetics. Through the study of dietetics, the girls have been able to determine the proper foods to eat to maintain good health. The Flat, too, has played an important part in the study of domestic arts by Schurz girls. VVith designs made by the art classes, and through the use of wooden frames and special hooked needles, the girls made hooked rugs. They also made silk shades and studied family budgets and the individual problem of the college girl. This was done under Miss Bursik's direction. In addition to all of these activities, the girls gave their annual Christmas candy sale, the proceeds of which were added to the organ fund of our school. One Hundred Fifteen F 1 f Schurz Shops By EMERY VANTINE What work's, my countrymen, in hand? where go you With bats and clubs? The matter? speak, I pray you. i Coriolanus, Act I, Sc. I, L. 55. Were a person to enter any of the Schurz shops and utter these two lines, he would probably be the subject of considerable comment on the part of the pupils. And yet, what visitor comes to our shops that has not the equivalent of these words written on his countenance? The sight indeed is enough to call forth such an inquiry. All day the shops are full of purposeful workers, seemingly bent on attaining some one thing. They are, and to attain it, they go through the various kinds of shops, doing the re- quired work in each, and helped in each by the work that has gone before. The wood shop is the first step in the progress of the technical course. Here, under the guidance of Messrs. Moquin, Slepicka, Soderling, and Miller the novices accustom themselves to machinery. They soon lose the knack of getting in their own way, and presently turn out such products as nail boxes, saw bucks, book ends, foot stools, and radio cabinets. The 'carpenter shop has been much improved by the installation of new and more modern machinery, and the allowance of separate rooms for the individual instructors has added much that is desirable to the old belt-driven shop. After- acquiring a certain facility in the handling of tools, the pupil is intro- duced to another branch of technical work. In place of wood as a medium he now has iron. The forge always has a great attraction for the aspiring student. It seems to typify the virility that one always associates with things mechanical. Mr. Mason and Mr. Bock do much to make this course attractive. Under their guid- ance the pupils learn how many iron things are produced. Some of the pupils become very proficient in making such exercises as chains, pokers, double-headed wrenches, radio pliers, and a score of similar tools. The next step in technical progress deals also with metals. In the foundry, a new World of possibilities is opened to the student, and while he is making moulds for Lincoln heads, and ash trays, and book ends, he dreams of moulding greater things, and thus he takes greater pleasure in his work through getting such momentary glimpses of the end for which he is striving. Here, they also make moulds from patterns made in the school pattern shop, and thus they see the finished product of what they will have to do in the next higher class. ' The inhabitants of the foundry shop seem very anxious to move to their new quarters. They have already installed parts for the new machinery before the plaster work is finished. One Hundred Sixteen .............. HT ,, -stir ,.. . 3. 'ff 1: Now that the pupil knows how to make moulds from patterns he has to learn how to make the patterns themselves. Though pattern making is a preliminary step to much of the work of the foundry, its problems are not attempted till after the foundry work has been finished, so that the students may know the limitations under which a pattern-maker must work to accomplish the best results. Thus the student is fairly well equipped to continue on towards his goal. Here it is that his work in the wood shop during his first semester stands him in good stead. When not engaged in supplying patterns for the immediate use of the new and better equipped foundry, they turn their attention from patterns such as bearing caps, brackets, and gears to the making of candlesticks, lamps, and various kinds of cabinet work. In connection with this class in pattern-making, and in connection with the next study in the sequence of the technical department, it might be well to men- tion the department of mechanical drawing. Here problems are graduated in relation to the student's development in his other technical classes. Thus, in his first year his drawing covers various problems in perspective, in his second, he continues with developments of plane cuts, and true lengths. The third year sees the drawing of such objects as screws, gears, and many of the parts of ma- chinery that the pupil uses during the same year in his machine shop workg in a corresponding way, his fourth year of drawing keeps pace with his practical work, and he is occupied for the most part with designs, original ones, for automobile motors. As in the mechanical drawing department, the work progresses from one mechanical standpoint to a higher one. Likewise the machine shop follows to pattern shop. The student passes a certain amount of time in accustoming him- self to the tools. To do this, he is put on bench work. His first exercise consists in making a block of iron with a levelled top, to be accurate in every detail. Even in such trivial things usefulness is stressed, and the student by drilling holes equi- distant along the levelled top, finds that he has a very passable bit-holder. From such a small beginning progress is made along the road of accuracy and neatness of workmanship till he ends this division of the work with making an inside and an outside pair of calipers. The second division of the machine shop exercises is on the lathe. Work is here begun on a taper, which before being discarded is turned into two perfect hexagonal bolts. Then come jack-bodies and jack-screws, and the machine shop work ends with the making of a plumb-bob. These problems are worked out Linder the able supervision of Mr. Lange and,Mr. Shaw. While the technical course proper is really finished with the completion of the work in the machine shop, each of the students of this department takes an optional course in accordance with his individual taste and aspirations. One optional course and perhaps the most popular is auto shop, since it deals with that field of mechanics that comes closer to the lives of the pupils than the others. Through the enthusiastic work of the students, antique Lizzies are made to feel like new, and garage-men are evaded for the time-being. Certainly there cannot be garage-men in the city who would not envy the equipment of the new Schurz auto shop. It is here that Mr. Johnson presides over the most modern and improved equipment and tools, which are used in a way to accomplish the greatest results with the least expenditure of energy. That principle has made the automotive industry the largest in the world, and to judge from the enthusiasm of the pupils for the work of this particular shop, significant of the attitude of the great bulk of the people, that industry is bound to hold its place for a long time to come.

I lv on In close connection with all the mechanical courses, the electric shop, under the supervision of Mr. Field and Mr. Moody, is to the great technical course only another optional class. It has a wide attraction for the technical students, as well as the Two Year Electrical boys. In this shop the time is divided, and part of it allotted to the working out of problems and the carrying out of labora- tory experiments, and part to the producing of certain electric utensils such as toasters, soldering irons, Hat irons, and many kinds of radio devices-all made of course at the expense of a few shocks and burns. But such a cost is rated very low by these embryo Edisons when they hear the call of the great electrical world. Another division of the work of this course requiring a technique far dif- ferent from that of any of the foregoing shops, and one Whose work is of su- preme importance in the world today, is the print shop. This shop is more in touch with the other departments, and the general life of the school than any of the others, just as its prototype in the world is so touched by all the diiferent phases of life. Great printers and publishers, we are sure, are at present serving their probationary periods in this shop where Mr. Osbon, the chief, -can criticize our promising young men. ' In all the departments is the same enthusiasm, the same ardent desire for attainment that promises much for the future of the mechanical world. Each graduate of the unexcelled technical course at Schurz steps into the world with the steadfast purpose of accomplishing his task, and a firm belief that The best verse hasn't been rhymed yet, ' The best house hasn't been planned, The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet, The mightiest rivers aren't spanned, Don't worry and fret, faint-hearted, The chances have just begun For the best jobs haven't been started, The best work hasn't been done.

These students gave much of their spare time to the financial affairs of the Schurzone. It is to 'them that a large part of the credit for -the success of this book is given. Lorentz Adolphson Mary Louth Russel Black Jackson Moore ' Cecil Blackman Harriet Olds Clarence Brack Arnold Rudd Fred Breitenback Robert Colwell Raymond Freiwald Herman Kroencke Catherine LaCrosse Eric Leufstedt Frances Scheffner Atwell Shinn Helen Vavak John Warren Mary Yearick Football Starting the season with six lettermen, championship football prospects looked bright for Schurz. However, extremely muddy lields were the downfall of ourlight but speedy backfields and two hard battles were lost in poor weather conditions. Though we started the season with a green line it developed rapidly until it was rated one of the best in the city. At the end of season Nilsen, one of our ends, was picked for a position on one of the mythical all-city teams. The fight for the pennant in the north section was between Lane, Senn, and Schurz. Though we were defeated by both Lane and Senn, the teams were evenly matched and both games were battles worth witnessing in spite of the fact that they were played in seas of mud. Schurz VS. Crane Schurz took the first league game from Crane by a score of 12-O. One of the outstanding features of the game was the playing of our line which exhibited a stone wall defense and .a devastating offense. Inopportune fumbles furnished the only reason for the score not being more onesided than it was. Carlson, Bob Anderson, and Cimeley were the backtield stars. Schurz vs. Lake View Playing without their captain and fighting against a heavier team, Schurz met Lake View and came out of the game on the big end of a 23-0 score. Cimeley was a constant ground gainer while Carlson and Anderson tore off gains around end. Evans and Nilson were the main strength of the line., One Hundred Twenty Schurz vs. Lane Visions of the championship vanished when Lane defeated Schurz 12-0 in the big game of the season at Cubs' Park. The battle was staged in a veritable sea of a sticky mud. In the first half, it was an even game with the advantage, if any, in favor of Schurz. At the opening of the second half, Brown of Lane caught the kickoff and tossed a lateral pass to Cohen who romped 70 yards un- challenged for a touchdown. In the first quarter, Lane tallied again when Brown went 10 yards through tackle for another score. Twice Schurz was in good position to score but the heavy Lane line held and we left the field without scoring. Schurz vs. Austin By scoring a thrilling last minute touchdown, Schurz nosed out Austin after trailing behind them nearly the whole game. Early in the second quarter Austin scored a touchdown but failed to make the extra point. Schurz lagged behind until the last few minutes when a series of accurate passes brought the ball to the twenty yard line where Bob Anderson took the oval and placed it over the goal. Carlson then booted it between the posts, taking the extra point and also the game. This victory left Senn and Schurz deadlocked for second place. I Schurz vs. Serin In a tense, evenly fought game Senn nosed out Schurz by splashing through three inches of water for a single touchdown in the final quarter. Only once did Schurz threatened to score, but a pass was grounded over the goal thus ending our last minute spurt. Nilsen and Evans again were the outstanding players in the Schurz line. Gentry and Thorton starred for Senn. With nearly the whole line returning next year, another good team should uphold the gridiron honors for Schurz in 1926. ' Tf8ClC Fifty candidates reported for track in reply to Coach Tweedie's call on De- cember 7. Of this number only about ten are juniors and the yearling squad as usual is in need of bracing. David Baldwin, a capable and efficient senior, has been appointed manager. Up to the present time he has filled his position satisfactorily and Mr. Tweedie is well pleased with his choice. Schurz is fortunate in having as able a coach as Mr. Tweedie, who is an authority both on track and field events. If enough material is given him, Coach Tweedie can without a doubt win a shield for Schurz. Kratz, Goers, Webb, Aronson, and Poisner are expected to shine in the sprints. Unless some latent material appears or some star is developed by Mr. Tweedie, Schurz will have a hard time garnering points in the distant runs. Thompson and Raber, veteran high-jumpers, are clearing the bar well over five feet and are the hope of Schurz in this event. At the time this article goes to press it is too early definitely to state who will occupy the remaining positions. Men are needed for the various events, and even at thls date it is not too late to dash down to the gym and try out for track. 4 One Hundred Twenty-one ' -: '- i n . ew -. - w w' s.

The two teams, 'as the practice games have shown, have plenty of fight and can play basketball on the oifensive and defensive exceedingly well. , The heavies, captained by King Simpson, are under the watchful 'eye of Coach Havlicek, and according to all indications should be a logical contender for the title. Simpson, who performs at center, has a dead eye for the basket and the natural ability needed for a good leader. His playing, coupled with that of Swabach, Roper, Kaitul, Breyak, and Schwartz should bring the bacon home. ' a Mr. Harris, coach of the ponies, hadva hard time selecting the right quintet because of the absence of veterans. Schumacher was the only player who was not lost by graduation and he was the nucleus about which Coach Harris built his team. Klein, Troch, Dezur, Ludtka, and Sugar are newcomers that look good. Rubenstein and Nieman, who acquired a berth on the lights, will be lost when the diplomas are passed out. The ponies are constantly improving and should be up in the front ranks at the finish of the season. Jack Mullen and jack Levant are managing Coach Havlicek's proteges, while Sid Christopherson is taking care of the lights. All know their duties and should relieve their coaches of many of their arduous tasks. Swimming Team Although the 1925 team did not capture any shields, the large turnout of candidates and the retum of all of last year's men made the team a point gaining aggregation. Schurz made a very creditable showing in all of the meets in which they participated. Last year's men, who were responsible for most of the points gained, are Busch, McGary, Kieding, Webb, and Heier. New men who have been outstand- ing are Mygdal, Link, Arvold, and Carlstrom. Graduation will take McGary and Kieding, but the team looks forward to a brilliant out-door season.

M, , a SOCCGI' Although our boys did not win the soccer championship, they made a com- mendable showing for the season of 1925. Nosed out of the running by defeats, caused by a single tally in each case, administered to us by Crane and Medill, our stellar performers came back and tied Lake View and Lane. The tie with Lane showed the caliber of our team since the Techs later became the undisputed champions of the north section. i 'Captain Laib led the team in an excellent and capable manner. He starred at outside left and ended his high school soccer games in a fitting manner by kicking the last goal in the final game of the season. McMenamin, Ehnborn, Rundstrom, Murray, Dammann, Paulsen, Grill, Kratz, and Buchholz were the stars of our backfield. Ehnborn and Buchholz deserve special credit, the former for his powerful kicking ability and the latter for his adroitness at dribbling. Those who covered themselves with glory in the line were Captain Laib, Ackerman, Thiel, Aronson, and Mason. Boros and Werbel did the managing for the soccer team. Boros, who will still be here next season, has been appointed manager of our championship soccer team of 1926. The team wishes to express its gratitude to the faculty and especially to Coach Wuehrmann for their splendid co-operation. Mr. Wuehrmann spent hours and much patience drilling our boys in the rudiments of the game and instilling in them the proper fighting spirit. Special attention and effort was given by him in his desire to have our boys win. His advice to the team always was: Fight to your utmost and fight hard, but fight clean. Boys' Golf The Schurz Golf team consisting of Forrest Howen, Irving Stoller, Melvvn Keyser, and Lorry Hansen placed third in the annual high school golf champion- ship at the Mid-City Golf Club last june. Hyde Park nosed our boys out of second place by a single stroke. During the summer two Schurz players won more honors for themselves and Schurz. Harry LeMay went to the finals in the second flight of Westem Junior Golf Championship and won the caddy championship at Glen View. Irving Stoller also qualified in the Western junior and went to the semi-finals in the Illinois junior where he was disqualified through a technicality. - - One Hundred Twenty-three -2 '- 'v 4 V-'- ww-vw . no---Q --Qxigsl ,Q .9 fiffggif-2235 iii. is Girl Athletes Hold Annual lvlohilization News of the annual mobilization of girl athletes held in the lunch roomy on June 18, reached headquarters too late for the last annual. However, since it is of major importance, it is being printed at this late date. The lunch room was gayly decorated ine purple and gold and two beautiful shields hung on the wall, one for the city golf championship, the other for the tennis championship. Around the festive board sat ninety-six healthy eager girls and six faculty members. ' The feast was fit for a king-for the rising cheer given the cooks was quite enough to convince the cooks that it was true. The only delicacy that cannot be credited to our Schurz cooks was a huge cake with Schurz written on it in purple and gold icing. This was presented by Evelyn Kjellander, one of our most accom- plished swimmers. The only man in the crowd was Colonel Whigam and all listened attentively to his interesting talk on Athletics as a Hobby. Elizabeth Roe read an original poem to an appreciative audience. All this was preliminary work. The big event of the afternoon was the presentation of miniature silver golf clubs and tennis racquets to the tennis and golf championsg of the big S to Dorothy Oftedahl for her all around athletic abilityg of eleven membership pins to the girls who had passed the junior Red Cross Life Saving Testsg and of something like 240 small S's and stripes to those who had made either school or interclass teams in some sport or other during the last year. . Cheer upon cheer filled the room as all this took place, but none of the cheers were quite as long as the one given Mrs. Crupp when she was presented with a. large bouquet of pink carnations. Last February was the tenth anniversa of V VY Mrs. Crupp's assuming charge of the swimming pool. One Hundred Twenty-four 1 . 1 .

The school was given a shield and the girls received pins in the fo-rm of tennis racquets for their reward. The players on the team were: Marie Becker ............. Doubles Edna Kruse ................ Singles Ethel johnson ............. Doubles Marion Ryan .............. Singles I Blanche Bell .............. Manager The doubles players and Edna Kruse were undefeated through the whole season. Next season there will be three berths vacant. Three new girls must take the places of those who are graduating. l locl-:ey On account of unfavorable weather conditions this fall hockey was abandoned very early. The loss of the majority of the previous year's team through gradua- tion made it doubly hard. But spring hockey will be played in ,preparation for a good fall team. V ' T Swimming Another class of life savers passed the junior Life Saving Test this semester under the supervision of Miss Shanewise, thus making the waters more safe for the thousands of bathers. The girls who have passed the test are: Marion Ryan Laura Bishop Esther Sandvik Norma Oftedahl ' Florence Beebe Cora LeMay Elsie DeVry Evelyn Olsen The girls are now busy practicing starts, 20 and 40 yard dashes, diving, and plunges in preparation for a swimming meet in the near future. Girls, .Basketball - Basketball has taken the place of hockey earlier than usual this season on account of the bad condition of the campus. Basketball, which is usually not begun until after Thanksgiving, was started several weeks earlier, and as a result Schurz can expect to have a better team than usual. ' The third period Advanced Class has had practice on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and extra practice for the team the eighth. Special forward practice has been given during the eighth period on Tuesdays in the hope of developing some extra-fine tossers. Schurz is expecting to have the usual outside game with Marshall toward the end of the semester. Last year Marshall put a blot on our otherwise perfect recordg this year that must not happen again. Something new has been started this year. Basketball tournaments are being held every period of the day, every class being divided into teams. Through elimination the best team will be fou.nd. One Hundred Twenty-five -e'1Ql'+' -'Q-f f-'Ser Golf For the short time that golf has been taken up as a girls' sport, our girls have done very well with it. Winning the Indoor Championship last winter Mary Louise Slibeck, Florence Beebe, Gertrude Brennan and Cora LeMay again brought home the trophy, in the City High School Tournament at Mid-City. To add to their laurels, Florence Beebe won the gold medal, first individual, with Mary Louise a few strokes behind winning the silver medal, second individual. Although the team will be deprived of Mary Louise Slibeck and Cora LeMay for the spring tournaments, much is expected of Ann Elizabeth Thorson and Elizabeth Snyder.
