' -The Roman Martyrology. 4 THE .ECHO Christmas Eve It was a cold, dark day. Snow flakes fell slowly about. The crowd rushed along, arms filled with pack- ages, and exchanging joyful greet- ings. During the rush, a little boy stood looking into a window. His feet were almost bare, and his clothes were torn and ragged. His dark blue eyes were gazing upon the toys in the window. At his feet sat a dog, look- ing into the boy's face in a dejected manner. A Gee! ain't that a peach of a gun, Snowball ? said the boy to his dog. Snowball answered with a wag of his tail. '4Gosh, he continued, if I had a hundred thousand dollars, I'd buy this place, and you and me, Snow- ball, wouldn't have to sleep in barns anymore for sure. The boy stood looking into the win- dow for a moment, and then started to sing a Christmas hymn. He did not notice the crowd of people that gathered around him. He sang the piece over and over again, not look- ing backward or he would have seen a man with a hat containing jingling coins. He did not turn until the man said, Here, my little man, is a gift for you. The boy turned quickly around and saw the money. What, is that for me ? he asked. Yes, replied the man. You just sang a song about Holy Mother and that reminded us of ours, and we shall make her happy. Have a merry Christmas, my lad. And handing the money to the astonished boy, he passed away into the crowd. The boy stood still, too surprised to move. Finally, he counted the money, and found that he had three dollars and thirty-three cents. Golly, Snow- ball ! he exclaimed, won't we have a peach of a time with this ? Snowball answered with a joyful bark, and started to 'lick his young master's hand. Just then a middle-aged man stepped up to the boy and said, What is your name, my lad ? Patrick O'Brien, sir. Where do you live '? inquired the man. The boy paused a moment, and then replied, Anywhere, sirg I haven't a home. I sleep in barns and boxes, and live anyplace in the day. Well, spoke the man, I was standing back there and heard you sing, and I find you have a wonderful voice. The lad did not speak, so the man continued, You have no certain place to go, did you say ? N o, sir, returned the boy. Well, my name is Carton, Thomas Carton. Would you like to come to my house for dinner ? Dinner! cried the boy. I'd like to very much, but I'm afraid I can't. You can't ? said the man, show- ing surprise in his turn. I thought you had no place to go ? I haven't, Patrick answered, abut my clothes are not fit to go any-- place. H Let me be the judge of that, said Mr. Carton. All right, replied Patrick, and they marched away together, fol- lowed by the dog. My home is just around the cor- ner a ways, spoke Mr. Carton. But at that moment Patrick was thinking what a nice man Mr. Carton was, and did not speak. You know, con- tinued Mr. Carton, that tomorrow is Christmas, and we should remember THE ECHO 5 the Christ Child along with our mer- ry-making. I have thought of that, too, re- plied Patrick. + It seems funny how much He does for us and how little we do for Him. Yes, that's so. But here is the place. .Patrick saw a large stone house with many windows, and fancy trim- mings on it. Gosh! said Patrick to himself g Mr. Carton must have a lot of money. The door was opened by a maid, who took their coats and hats, while they went into the sitting room. Where is Helen? he asked the maid. ' She is upstairs, sir. Not feeling well, sir. Well, do not call her yet, said Mr. Carton. Come here, my little man, he said to Patrick. I wish to tell you something. He paused a moment, and Patrick caught the glimpse of a tear. He went on: Seven months ago my little son died. He was about your age, and ever since my wife has- not been the same. And today she is worse, because the day before Christmas our little boy would be so excitedi and happy. Mr. Carton stopped to wipe away a tear. He continued: I want you to do me a favor if it is not too much to ask. f I'll be glad to do it, answered Patrick, no matter how big it is. Well, said Mr. Carton, it is this: my little boy would sing Christmas hymns around this time, and I would like it very much if you would sing a few songs. The boy started to sing Silent Night, and before he had finished, Mrs. Carton came rushing down stairs. Thomas, she cried, Thom- as, what does this mean ? Only this, my dear, smiled Mr. Carton, this boy is taking Edward's place tonight to sing a few songs for us. Good! cried Mrs. Carton. I shall be delighted. Patrick sang a few songs before dinner. After dinner Mr. Carton called him into the library and said, You did not tell me anything about yourself or your family. I Oh, said Patrick, I haven't much of a history. I can't remember my mother or father, and I had no brothers or sisters. I made my home with an old lady named Miggs, but one day she got heart failure and died. So I came here trying to earn something. 5 Rather a sad story, commented Mr. Carton. But I was speaking to my wife and she wants me to per- suade you to make this your home, and take the place of our boy. Gee I cried Patrick, I'd love to if I was able to a-er- Able to do what, my boy ? Able to keep my dog, said Patf rick. Oh, of course, of course, laughed Mr. Carton. -Wayne Bushman, 'QL .i. To The Echo Yes, all things fade away, but leave behind Some echo, howe'er faint it be, that tells Us naught is lost. The tiny flow'ret bells , Vibrating to the music of the wind May in the farthest world their echoes find. The fall of each brown leaf in tutumn dells An echo sends, that onward swells. Who knows but God has work for it designed? So send we forth this Echo of our life That breathes and dies within the ancient Walls Of our old school. Perhaps in some young 'heart Where Right and Wrong contend in ceaseless strife, voice, as en e as e soun Its g tl th d when -falls The dying leaf, may courage fresh impart. 6 THE ECHO A Scare I had spent the day in Rome City, and when I returned home in the evening I was somewhat tired. It was one of those days in late summer when the heat holds sway until night- fall, waiting to be absorbed into those refreshing' breezes so welcome after the long oppressiveness. As I have said, I was rather tired, so shortly after supper I bade the folks good night and went up stairs. It was a little too early to retire so after saying my prayers I stood for some time near the window watch- ing the last crimson shadows of the August twilight fade into the ap- proaching darkness. After about a quarter of an hour I could see the great harvest moon, like an immense copper disk, steal slowly over the dis- tant treetops. I began to grow sleepy, and know- ing that a big day's work was waiting for me on the morrow, I went to bed. It seemed to me that I had not been asleep very long when I awoke with a start. I thought I heard someone talking. I listened for a moment to ascertain whether the folks down stairs had yet retired, but could hear nothing. I got up, went over to the window but could see no one. It was quite bright in the room though the moon was hidden behind a bank of thick clouds. I looked at my watch and it was exactly a quarter past twelve. Everything was quiet. Guess I've been dreaming, I said to myself, and started back to bed. Just then I heard a noise down stairs, and thought I had better go to investigate. I was a little timid for there was a death-like silence about the place. The stairs creaked beneath my feet, and I could hear nothing but the tick- ing of the clock in the midnight still- ness. I reached the bottom of the stairs, but drew back suddenly. What is that? Before me stood a tall, thin being in a long white garment. I shuddered from head to foot. The cold sweat began to stand out in large beads upon my forehead. I moved forward and the phantom seemed to move toward me. Surely my time had come. Finally I resolved to meet the enemy. I advanced a step and was about to strike when I fell against the mirrow which had been moved from its original place the day before. -Robert Lfitot, '23, A Blind On one of the darkest residential streets of the city, two men could have been seen slouching along-the street at a slow gait. They 'seemed to be headed for a house, for they turned in and made a short cut across the grass which extended be- fore it. At last they reached the side of the building, and immediately made for a window, and began op- erations which linally resulted in the window opening. They climbed in, and with the aid of a search light, made their way to a big picture hang- ing over the small wall-safe, this they removed in order to make work- ing at the small wall safe more con- venient. The other man without hes- itation opened the safe, showing thereby that he must have 'done a lot of spying around to get all the infor- mation he had. When the safe flew open, the men pocketed the contents, locked the safe, and were about to depart when they thought they heard someone coming in. They hurried out of the house, THE ECHO 7 and made a bee line for the more lighted part of the city. They finally reached a big downtown building which seemed to be an hotel. They stepped in, went up stairs to a front room, turned on the light and locked the door. Well, Jim, said the elder, this is one time we did not have to postpone our hunting trip, by going through the window, we can go as per sched- ule instead of having to wait to get into my house with the key which Mammie has taken to Gladstone with her. -Paul M cE voy, '23. Fooled The house was dark when they ar- rived, They groped to find a seat. He was tall and dark and swell, And she, small and petite. There was just one place in the row That was ahead of me, So with a pause he sat him down And took her on his knee. He put his arms around her waist, She snuggled close to him, And sat there through the Pathe reel In pictures grave and grim, While Paramount-Mack Sennet fun Seem to fill her heart with glee, As all unconsciously she sat There upon the fellow's knee. At sight of movie lovers' joys And their sweet ecstatic bliss, She put her arms around his neck And gave him a furtive kiss. And when the vamp in anger stabbed Her lover, rich and florid, She snuggled closer still and said: Oh, Daddy, ain't she horrid ! -Julian Koehl, '22. Going Home What is that book you are reading so attentively of late ? Father, it is a catechism of Chris- tian Doctrine. I am waiting for George to come to take me to Father Downs for instructions. Is George Schaub a Catholic ? Surely, father, didn't you know that ? I knew it, if not in so many words, at least I felt it, and this makes me hate him the more. I have hinted to him that I did not want him to come around here so often, and when he comes tonight, I'll refuse him en- trance. I suppose that is he now. So saying Mr. Eckle went to the door and opened it. , Good evening, Mr. Eckle. Is Ethel at home ? She is, sir, but not to see you. I'll have no Papist in my house. I forbid you to 'keep company with my daugh- ter any more. Don't argue with him, George, I'll see you later. If you leave this house tonight, Miss Ethel, to go with that lad, you may stay out. I can do that, also. slambed the door in and stood eyeing his Mr. Eckle George's face daughter who for the first time had spoken to him in this way. Remember, Ethel, I forbid you to go with George any more unless you want to live elsewhere. Father, I'll go with him to instruc- tions, and if you-will not let me in when I return, all well and good. I can earn a living for myself. Be it understood that I am going to be- come a Catholic like George. After a few minutes Ethel ap- peared in the reception room all ready to go. She had packed up a 8 THE ECHO few things in a suitcase and told her mother what had happened, saying that she knew she could make her father change his mind within a few days. The mother was not to let her husband know where Ethel was, un- til she could see that he was really worried. Remember, I'm not joking, Mr. Eckle said as Ethel left the house. Oh, yes you are, was her reply. It was about ten o'clock that night when Ethel returned home. She had not seen anything of George, but had her. taken a girl friend along with She was now alone. The house was her still lit up,. and she could see father sitting near the fire. It was but very cold and snowing heavily, this would not hinder her from car- rying out her plan should she be re- fused entrance. As soon as the father heard footsteps on the porch he arose and went to the door. Is that you, Miss ? he shouted. Yes, father, it is. May I enter ? Well, you'll have to go elsewhere. Let her in, John, demanded the mother. . Never, I'll have no Catholics in my house. Ethel did not wait for the outcome of the argument, but going to the side of the house took her suitcase and started in haste through the blinding December snow to her aunt's house, could nearly a mile distant. Ethel scarcely see her way along. She was crossing a road when of a sudden she was run into and thrown down by an automobile. We've killed her. Hurry out and see what has happened. It's a poor young girl. We must hurry her to the hospital as soon as possible, as she is unconscious and may bee badly hurt. Ethel was placed into the auto and. taken to the hospital. As the Sisters were getting her ready for bed one of them noticed the Catechism in her pocket. She's a Catholic, Sister Adeladeg I must call Father Downs at once. After a short time the priest ar- rived with the Most Blessed Sacra- ment and the Holy Oils. The poor creature is hurt very badly and we cannot bring her to, Father. The doctor is worried about her, and we do not know who she is or where she lives. It is Ethel Eckle! She came to my house this evening with a girl friend of hers for instructions. She is a Catholic, then. No, she is not yet baptized, but bring me some water immediately. Within a few minutes Ethel was a Catholic. Father Downs baptized and anointed her. f Call her parents on. the phone, will you, Father? They will be wor- ried about her. At these words Ethel opened her eyes, but she could not recognize any- one. After some time she opened them again, and this time noticed she was in a strange place. She gazed around blankly. Within an hour she could distinguish those around her. When she recognized Father Downs she exclaimed, Father, what has happened ? , Do not worry, my child, you will be all right soon. Shall I call your father and have him come to you '? No, don't call him, Father,- please--don't. The next morning the doctor again examined his patient and found that she was seriously injured, but still had hopes of her recovery. After it was time for Ethel's father to be at THE ECHO 9 work, the priest called and explained matters to Mrs. Eckle. She could hardly believe him, but hastened to the hospital where she found her daughter still in a critical condition. During this time George had been informed of the accident and was at the bedside. That night Mrs. Eckle could hardly control herself in her husband's presence, but as the doctor thought Ethel would recover, the mother did not tell her husband. After a few days went by, Mr. Eckle could no longer hold his peace concerning Ethel. Have you heard anything from her ? he asked his wife. Now Mrs. Eckle broke down. Tears came to her eyes and she sobbed, Yes, she's-nearly dead. The-doc- tor does-n'n-s know whether-she'll live or not,-and it's all-it's all your fault ! What's this? Nearly dead! Ethel? Ethel nearly dead ? Yes, she's at Hotel Dieu. ' Without saying another word Eckle put on his hat and coat and hurried to the hospital. Is Ethel Eckle here ? he asked the Sister. ' Yes, sir, but no one can see herg she is very low. Can't her father see her? Oh please, let me in. I must see my darling child. At last the Sister consented. Open- ing the door for him, she said: Ethel will not recognize you, but the young man there will be able to explain things to you. George, oh dear George, what has happened? What is the matter, George ? I-I'm afraid Ethel will not see the dawn of Christmas morn. Ethel's going home! -Adolph Schefjfle, '23, The Shears The snows are deep around the house, The shutters bang about, And dozing in an easy chair, I watch the old year out. A French clock-with gilded face- 'Jpon the mantel stands, And drowsily my gaze is fixed 'Jpon its slender hands. Behold they are the famous shears The fates so long have plied To terminate the life of man And all his pomp and pride. The blades with slow. precision meet At twelve and cut the thread Of time, and all the bells announce Another year is dead. -Paul Tierney, 525. Recollections Outside the snow was falling thick, and fast, As joyfully they talked of days now past. They spoke of happy days when they were small, And I could almost hear the school bell's call As vividly the white-haired man brought back The pictures of that simple, lowly shack, Where Master Perry taught each girl and boy To read and write. But now those days of joy Were but an empty dream. Long , years had passed Since they as happy children gathered last Within its walls, and each of them tonight Forgot his age 'mid recollections bright. Q -Joe Kinstle, ,22. 10 THE A Strange Disappearance The gang was gathered in the old cleared spot in the woods, talking over the plans for the next year's trip to the lake. It had just turned dark. CWe always held our meetings in the dark, it looked more secret.J. We counted noses. All were present ex- cept Joe Winters. It seemed to me that he waswith us when we started out. Red thought so too. He was with us when we started, exclaimed Red. I'll bet he's reading that yellow covered book he got last week and wouldn't let anyone see the name of it. He's got a spot light and reads by flashes. Is that so ? came the protest from Joe. I've been right behind you all the time. Let's race to the big oak and back. He started running with the gang after him, and turning oi toward the oak, was lost to view. We came to the turn, but Joe was not to be found. We searched the place and called his name, but received no answer. Suddenly a deep groan was heard below the oak, and then a feeble Help! HelpI'9 in Joe's voice com- ing forth from the ground. Then suddenly a yellow covered book, which proved to be How to be a Ventriloquist in Three Lessons, hit Red on his flaming top, as Joe hur- riedly slid down the tree. +W'Zlli0Lm Foohey, ,ZZ Catholic Education Is it really necessary that we main- tain our Catholic schools, high schools, colleges and universities? Without the slightest hesitation, we answer emphatically-Yes. Educa- tion is faulty, nay even injurious, un- less it be thorough, unless it develops ECHO the whole man, his body and soul, with its faculties of intellect and will. In our state and sectarian schools educa- tion is weak because it ignores the training of the will. This, in the Catholic school, holds first place. This world, with its pleasures and enjoyments, is not the destiny of man. He came from God and to God he must return. Is it not of paramount importance, then, that he learn the things necessary to attain his des- tiny? Should he not concern himself particularly with the task of learn- ing his duties to God, to his neighbor and to himself? To impart this knowledge, to imbue the young mind with the true understanding of man's moral obligations, is the primary ob- ject of the Catholic school. The result of irreligious education is manifest in our country and throughout the world. Divorce, race- suicide, crimes of all kinds and grees-these are but the conse- quences that spring from wills which lack sound moral principles. We can adduce no stronger argument in de- fense of our insistence on Catholic education. As Catholics we take pride in our schools and their wonderful achieve- ments. We regard it as our bounden duty to support and maintain them, because they stand for true education. It is hoped that the Catholic people of Fort Wayne will never forget the purpose of their schools, and that not the least among those schools is the Central Catholic High School. -J. E. D. All systems of education must be judged according as they tend to form character or leave it out of ac- count. -Mdndell Creighton. THE ECHO 11 My School Of the schools I have seen 'Neath this far-reaching sky, There's not one that I love Like my own Central High. I love every room, Every window and door, I love every desk Cn its old oaken floor. For long have I labored Within its dear walls, And oft have I wandered , Along its wide halls. Oh, my faults may be many And my virtues too few, But to old Central High I will always be true. -J. F. K., '22 Knights of Columbus Evening Voca- tional School Specially Written for The Echo by Principal Robert M. Connelly, A. B., C. E. It is now three years since the Great War was brought to a happy conclusion, and one frequently hears the expression that the people are glad that the dreadful war, and its very bad effects upon humanity, are now a memory. During this terrible conflict, many institutions solicited tremendous sums of money, by con- tributions, for the purpose of render- ing assistance and comforts to the men, who were offering their Every- thing to the United States. Among these institutions was the Knights of Columbus, and, although the amounts received by this order of men were far below those received by other in- stitutions, nevertheless, their work Was unsurpassed and their name has never been tainted by the slightest criticism even from the most bigoted circles. At the conclusion of the war, the various societies necessarily had much of their funds still on hand and the Knights of Columbus decided that, as this money was intended pri- marily for the use and comfort of the men in the service, it would be advis- able to continue offering the men a helping hand, and it was considered that the best -way this could possibly be done was by Continuation Courses, or Evening School Classes. There- fore, Evening Schools were founded in most of the large cities of the Uni- ted States, and in February of 1920, a school was started in the City of Fort Wayne. A The initial registration of students was four hundred and fifteen men, and this has increased with a pleasing regularity ever since that time. At present, the Fort Wayne School has offices at No. 311 People's Trust Building, academic work is conduct- ed at the Fort Wayne Public High School Building, the Acetylene Weld- ing Courses are conducted at No. 615 Lafayette street, and the Auto,Me- chanics Classes are held in a special building at No. 534 Ewing street. The class of students in our Even- ing School is very interesting and quite varied. The men come from all walks of life, their education has the widest variation. Some of our stu- dents are graduate p r a c t i c i n g lawyers in the City of Fort Wayne, on the other hand, some of the boys have only been able to get the meager edu- cation offered in a few winters at a country school. Although we have some classes in literature and science, nevertheless, it has been found that the vocational work has been most at- tractive. The value and the worth of our courses might be realized when people know that we have a great 12 THE number of non-ex-service men, who pay a fee for attending our school, when they can attend other institu- tions in the city for nothing, or for a tuition somewhat less than our own. As an illustration I might mention, that after registering seventy-three students in our beginners' Auto Me- chanics Class we have found it neces- sary to reject fifty-two applicants for that course since the school has opened this semester. The Architectural and Mechanical Drafting Classes have proved quite popular and the men have turned out some excellent work. Last year, sev- eral of the plates done in the Fort Wayne School were on exhibition at the San Francisco Convention of the Knights of Columbus. They brought favorable comment from all those who saw them, and the Supreme Sec- retary of the Knights of Columbus wrote us a letter commending the work. One of the interesting features of the school occurred last semester in our General Education Course which takes up Penmanship, English, Arith- metic, Spelling, etcetera. In this class there were several youngsters about the age of fifteen and there were sev- eral men past fifty-five. This course has proved quite popular as it gives many men a chance to review their early education or it is a good oppor- tunity forthe ones with a meager education to learn these essential de- tails for the first time. Our class of people, namely, Cath- olics, have a tendency to be too self- satisfied with the activities and pub- licity of the work of the men and or- ders of our faith. It is a well-under- stood fact that many people do a pen- ny's worth of good and a dollar's worth of advertising. Our people ECHO are too willing to expend their every effort in the work of doing good and let the advertising take care of itself. To be more specific I might state, that in spite of the fact that in the recent World's Conflict, the Knights of Co- lumbus received only a small amount of the money, comparitively speaking, nevertheless, their work has not been surpassed and even at this date, the order is carrying on a tremendous' amount of good work caring for the healthy and sound ex-service men and women in our Evening Schools, and for the infirm and weak ex-ser- vice men and women in the Govern- ment hospitals. I feel that the work of this great order, their honesty and integrity has been such that the country, yes, even the world, should rise and shout their praises for such noble efforts. I also feel that the good now being done for our 60,000 men still confined to G o v e r n m e n t Hospitals and our 300,000 ex-service men now taking courses in our Free Evening Schools should demand the respect of all men and women of the country and the undying gratitude of those who of- fered their A-L-L on the Altar of De- mocracy in the recent World War. Never Say Die When you're feelin' weak and blue, The harness seems to rub, And you don't know what to do, Well, just get down and grub. It's easy to stop and rest, To let others do your part, But the man the world loves best Is the one with the fighting heart. Never say quit , and stopf The least you can do is try. The man who reaches the top Is he that never says die. -J. Haley, '22 THE ECHO 13 First Christmas In America In the year 1492, the first celebra- tion of Christmas on the Western Hemisphere occurred. Christopher Columbus and his crew were about to land on the shores of Haiti when one of the ships, .the Santa Maria, ran upon a rock and was wrecked. The sailors would certainly have perished had it not been for the kindness of the natives of the island. They sent out rude boats to rescue Columbus and hispmen, and were successful in bringing all of them safely to land. Columbus and his companions sank on their knees and thanked the Sac- rificial Victim of the Holy Cross of Calvary, while the natives danced and sang the praises of the unknown spirit, adored by the pale-faced strangers. This happened on Christmas Eve, 1492. The Indians pitied the unfortunate paniards, and lodged them in their uts for the night. Not satisfied with these kindnesses toward the great discoverer and his followers, the In- ian chief caused a great banquet to e held on Christmas Day and to it he ordially invited the famous naviga- or and his brave sailors. To honor he guests still more, the great chief ade his principal warriors act as ervants on the occasion. -Edward Kdllmyefr, ,23. In the Mountains . Nothing is more pleasant on a hot ummer afternoon than a trip hrough the mountains, especially at hat altitude where the balmy air of n evening is always present. I was trolling from our camp in the ockies to take an afternoon to my- elf. This is quite a foolish thing for ne to do who is not used to the passes. I proceeded nicely until turn- ing too sharply in response to a call, I lost my balance and fell some feet into a crevasse. After gaining my foothold I surveyed the surroundings. To the right the wall of the cavern was higher than I, but on the left I could see the neighboring hills and beautiful waterfalls. I could ob- serve at ease the great limestone for- mations, the stalagmites and stalac- tites that had formed ,in the open- ing. Looking above I discovered that I was about a hundred yards from the snow-line. From the strata and the smoothness of the stones I could tell that the cave was comparatively new as the agencies of erosion and denuda- tion had done little work upon them. Below I saw a few cottages, with no one around them. For the moment I felt like Maximilian I, of Germany, as he stood on the narrow ledge, far removed from the followers of the chase, and no one near to help. I soon found a way out of my dilemma, how- ever, and once more gained a pass which I thought would lead me back to the tavern where I had been stay- ing. The sun was just wheeling its course homeward and flooded the en- tire valley in a sapphire haze. The red and blue of the sky above seemed to blend into the purple mist below. There seemed to be a union of the clouds and the earth. The deepening shadows soon enclosed the valley in a dark pall, and reluctantly I hurried home, leaving the soundless moun- tains to await the coming morning. -Robert WSZLGZZQT, '23. Prediction: There will be fewer windows broken this year. An old pane cost fifteen cents, while the new ones cost six dollars. Ask Mills about the truth of this statement. 14 THE Trifles fAn Essayl There are many writers who lay stress on the fact that great events often follow from trifling causes, that what to most people are seemingly trivial and paltry things are in reality seeds from which great consequences spring. Other writers, however, take an opposite stand and declare that such a view is ridiculous. For my part I am rather inclined to join the ranks of those who place emphasis on the importance of trifles, W e b s t e r has somewhere said, Great events happen seldom and af- fect few, trifles happen every mo- ment to everybody. We have but to stop and reflect a few moments to realize the truth of these words. Do not little things often happen to us, things that seem of no consequence? Yet they have an effect on us, either for good or for evil. Things that the world considers great rarely happen, and when they do occur they are gen- erally the result of insignificant causes. History bears testimony that such is often the case. We are all familiar with the story that tells how a great battle was lost for the want of a horseshoe nail. No nails could be had to shoe the horses, conse- quently the unshod horses could not enter the conflict, and the battle was lost, and all for the want of a horse- shoe nail. We remember that Rome was saved by the cackling of geese, and that a lantern flashed to Paul Re- vere the news that the British were advancing on Concord. These were trifling things, yet they caused inci- dents that have furnished material for history, and they show what great events from little causes spring. How many poets and painters there ECHO are who have given to the world pro- ductions in literature and art that were begun by inspirations caused by seemingly small things. We are told that Walpolels The Castle of Otranto had its origin in a dream, and we remember the story of the disgusted artist who threw his paint- smeared sponge at an unsatisfactory painting of a mad dog and produced the result that months of labor and thought would not express. Science is also indebted to small matters for many of its discoveries. Did not Newton hit upon the law of gravita- tion by seeing an apple fall to the ground? There is no trifle too small to be of service. Those who pay no heed to little things and who are prone to ridicule the importance of trifles, forget that it is the drops that make the ocean, and that the grains of sand form the mountains. An acorn is apparently a useless thing, yet from it may spring forests of giant oaks, a second is a trifle, still a certain writer has said that the seconds make eternity. It is the petals that give form and beauty to the rose, every leaf on the tree plays its silent part in nature as means for producing shade, each blade of grass has its place in the system of created things, each single star that studs the sky gives its light, feeble though it be, and adds beauty to the heavens. There things in themselves are trifles, but upon them hinge important measures. Take the petals from the rose, strip the trees of their leaves, root up the grass and you make spring and sum- mer a time of perpetual drearinessg snatch the stars from the sky, and you rob night of its attractive beauty. If in nature everything, no matter how small it may be, has its allotted THE ECHO 15 place, so also in our lives every aiair, however trifling it may seem, plays its part and leaves some effect upon us. We have often been told that it is the little things that count. Let us never despise small matters for they are of the greatest consequence and make up the happiness or misery of human life. -Edwin O'NeilZ, 223. A Good Listener Wherever we go or in whatever po- sition we find ourselves, we are al- ways expected to act as gentlemen. In other words we must be polite. And no matter how stiff or how bor- ing the rules of etiquette may seem, we can always derive some good from their observance. This is particu- larly true in our social relations either with our fellow-students or in public gatherings. A respectful reticence while others are speaking, and a visible interest in what they have to say, should be prominent in our behavior under the circumstances just mentioned. When we are engaged in a conversation we should remember that even if the subject does not interest us personal- ly, it does interest those who are dis- cussing itg and out of regard for them it is uncharitable as well as unman- nerly to make them conscious that their conversation is uninteresting to us. What I have said about private con- versation applies to public speech as well. Let us bear in mind that no matter how dry the subject is, the speaker is doing his best to tell us in a pleasing way something that he be- lieves will interest us. Moreover, there are those in his audience who are trying to get all that he has to say, and who will be distracted by our lack of interest. What then is the rule which will make us good listeners? Merely place yourself in the speaker's posi- tion, and then follow the Gospel maxim: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Psychologists tell us that to tear a piece of paper into shreds, and then throw them on the lawn, and then to pick them up is a good exercise for developing will-power. To my mind, to sit patiently through an uninterest- ing speech, or to listen to a conversa- tion to which we would rather not listen, is a much more profitable means of attaining the same end 5 for no matter how dry the subject may be, we can usually learn something from the talk, and if we carry away nothing else than a stronger will and the resolution not to be equally unin- teresting when we ourselves are the speakers, we shall not have spent our time in vain. -Julian Kochi, '22. Christmas On this day hearts will know no bounds, oceans will melt into noth- ingness and space will be annihilated, and around the Christmas tree of our youth we shall gather and around the crib of our boyhood. Young hearts will beat the faster as they are gathered back to the bosom of the family 5 those in the midst of life will hasten home with joy and yearning, and even the old feeble will totter back with silver locks and dim eyes to be children again for at day. And those far away in sorrow and mourn- ing will lay aside their grief as they kneel by the crib of Bethlehem, and will breathe a fervent prayer which the angels of God will carry back to the old home and mothers.

Whistling in his simple glee He walked a mile and maybe three. And Daddy not so long ago, -When he was a little tike- With Aunty on the handle bars, Rode schoolward on a bike. Spinning down the village street As gay a sight as you could meet. When I am started off to school, Although it isn't far, I am very carefully wrapped And sent in my motor car. Now the Grandson of my Grandpa, I Think of my Grandpa's days and sigh. I see the past and I can see The future just as plain, When in his turn my boy Shall sail to school by aeroplane. Be it a-foot, a-wheel, a-wing, To go to school is just the thing. -William Ryan, 523. Jackis Return It was a cold night in the middle of December, and the snow was falling from the clouds in a great white fleece. In a lonely house, on a dark street of a mining town in Pennsylvania sat poor Mary. She was a tall, frail crea- ture who had lived alone for several years since the disappearance of her brother, Jack. All the time Jack Robinson was away, Mary had spent her time sew- ing and helping those about her, and on this very night she was making Christmas presents for some poor children who lived nearby. From time to time as she plied her needle, her thoughts shifted to poor Jack, and she prayed for his return. Every night she would pray to the Christ Child for the return of her dear brother if he was alive, and for the repose of his precious soul had he departed this life. On the day before Christmas while she was distributing a basket of Christmas gifts, she had dropped a package from her basket. She felt very sorry about losing it, and on her way home she looked and inquired for it, but to no avail. She did not mind the loss of the package, but she felt downcast because Little Georgie Flack would have to be disappointed. P14 Pk 24 Pls All the time Jack was in the army he had been thinking of his good sis- ter, Mary, but had not had a word from her in three years. It so happened that Jack was detailed to guard the coal strike district. Little did he dream he would find anyone he knew in the town. As he was making his way down the street he found a package lying in the snow bank along the path. He picked it up, examined it, and found that it bore the name Mary Robinson, 504 N. Salsbury Street. Could this belong to his own dear sister? It did not look like her hand- writing. He inquired the direction to Salsbury street after his watch was over, and went directly to the house. When Mary opened the door she exclaimed with ecstatic joy, The Christ Child has heard my prayer. -J . Raymzmd Murphy, ,252 Family Prayer We hear much about labor unions, social unions, all sorts of unions. Employers have organized, laborers have organized, wherever you turn you find an organization. Why? Be- cause men realize that as units they THE ECHO 17 have no power to attain their pur- pose, whatever it may be. The only kind of union that seems to have no attraction is one of prayer. How many have ever reflected seri- ously on those words of Christ, For where there are two or three gather- ed together in My name, there am I in the midst of them ? From all ap- pearances the number is very insig- nificant. Yet those words are fraught with a lesson worthy the se- rious consideration of all, especially of parents. Upon father and mother, to a great extent, depends the future welfare of their children. Theirs is the duty of instilling into virgin minds the knowledge of Cod and the obligations toward Him. And surely no lesson should be taught more thor- oughly or more perfectly than that of prayer. Fortunately most parents appreciate this fact, but how few there are who illustrate their teach- ing by practical example. It is not an uncommon sight to see the entire family going to the movies or to some place of amusement and recreation. But where can you find a mother who practices the beautiful old custom of calling her little ones about her for evening prayer? Enter a home with such a mother and you will find a family upon whom the blessings of God have fallen. Their prayers have not been in vain, be- cause Christ was with them. Place a single log upon the fire and it will give forth light and heat. Heap more and' more logs upon the same fire and in a short time the light be- comes brighter, the heat more in- tense. So it is with prayer. The de- votion of one increases the fervor of those about, and thel prayer that is offered leaps like a flame to the very throne of God. May the beautiful Christmas-tide inspire fathers and mothers to inaugurate the holy cus- tom of family prayer. -J. E. D. Honored Guests Shortly after the noon hour on Wednesday, December 7th, we assem- bled to welcome, to entertain, and to be entertained by the Right Reverend Monsignor Noll, LL.D., of Hunting- ton, and the Reverend Thomas Con- roy, pastor of the Cathedral. Monsignor Noll was very recently honored by Pope Benedict XV. with the title of domestic prelate in recog- nition of his nation-wide influence and popularity as editor of Our Sun- day Vvlsvltorf' Father Conroy, pastor of the Ca- thedral, has spared no effort to make the Library Hall as near modern as possible before turning it over to the bishop to be used for purely high school purposes. Father Conroy has endeared himself to all of us, and is extremely popular with our boys due to his holding the essay contest and again by oiering a gold medal as a prize for the winner of an elocution contest. We, as Brothers' boys, were glad to have this opportunity of showing our appreciation of these good priests -both products of the Old Brothers' School-and we thank them for their keen interest in our welfare and above all for their most beautiful words of encouragement and advice. -Albert Schoenlc, 223. ,L..,l,.l-11-.l11 The reporter who wrote up the In- dianapolis game said, C.

Our Appreciation After all the money that has been spent in sham-rocking, painting, glaz- ing, relighting, repairing, and remod- eling, in and about our school, it is up to us to show those who have Worked so untiringly in our interests, that We really appreciate what has been done for us. One of the best Ways We can show that appreciation We should have, is for us to protect the school property and keep our GREETINGS TO YOU With this issue of the ECHO before the holidays, we wish you, dear reader-student, alum- nus, or friend of Central High- a merry Christmas and a most happy New Year. May the priceless Peace of His Holy Mother be yours in the fullest measure during this blessed time and always. -THE EDITORS. THE ECHO 19 desks, rooms, school and surround- ings in good order and repair. Let us be 100fZp students, and above all 10096 Catholics. Let our lives and our conduct be such that anybody may point with pride to any one of us and say, There is a Catholic boy, there is a student of the Central Cath- olic High School. -J. C., 223. L A Retreat A city-wide retreat for men, given under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus, was entirely a new venture in the City of Fort Wayne. The gen- erous response of the members of all the parishes who thronged the an- cient Cathedral was a source of great edification. We were happy to see so many of our older students faithfully attending the morning and evening exercises. The retreatants were in- deed fortunate in securing Rt. Rev. Msgr. John F. Noll, LL.D., of Hunt- ington, who was recently honored by Pope Benedict XV with the title of domestic prelate-and who has done untold good throughout the land as editor of Our Sunday Visitor, to conduct the exercises. May this re- treat become an annual affair. -Alfred Gardner, 524. Halt Now that the first issue of The Echo is off the press, it is high time for you to do your part towards mak- ing your school paper a success. We are not asking you to do very much, but we would like to have you do the little we are asking you. What we expect is that every student of the Central Catholic High School be per- sonally on the lookout and visit a few of his friends to get them to sub- scribe to The Echo. This is not a very hard proposition, for any friend of yours who is too tight to come across with iifty cents for a year's subscrip- tion, must indeed be a very close-fisted individual. All that is necessary on your part is that you take the trouble to ask them to subscribe. The time has now arrived when the co-operation of EVERY student is abso- lutely necessary. If you want The Echo to be a real live publication, representative of our school, do your little part towards making it a suc- cess. GET SOME SUBSCRIBERS AND GET THEM Now. -A. S., '23. I Saw Your Ad In The Echov Would that we could impress upon the minds of the C. C. H. S. students and all the readers of The Echo, the necessity of not only patronizing our advertisers, but of mentioning The Echo when doing so. Like all other papers, The Echo is dependent upon its advertisers for support. If we had no advertising we would have to charge several times our present subscription rate. Now the professional men, the merchants and the business men-both local and national-who advertise in The Echo, expect a return for their money. Ad- vertising is an investment which pays dividends in the form of increased business, and it is up to the students and their friends to support our ad- vertisers. All other things being equal, why not do your business with Echo ad- vertisers? When you visit such men, be sure you mention The Echo. No matter how much business you give our advertisers, it will do us no good if the professional and business man in question does not know that it was his ad in The Echo which brought him your trade. -J . F. K., 592. 20 THE About Exchanges: We intend to have an exchange col- umn in our next issue, so we are send- ing out some sample copies of this number. We are anxious to exchange with those schools to which we are sending them. So far eight publica- tions have reached us asking for ex- change. We appreciate these publi- cations and have quoted freely from their humor sections. The Secret of Happinessi' Brother Florentius, C. S. C., assist- ant general in the Congregation of Holy Cross, was heard in a lecture at 10 o'clock, October 3, by the students of the high school and the boys of the seventh and eighth grades of the Ca- thedral parochial school. His lec- ture, The Secret of Happiness, was illustrated by one hundred and twenty well-chosen slides. The Secret of Happiness pertains to vocations in life, the speaker treat- ing of the married state, the priest- hood, and finally the life of the brother in various religious commu- nities, but particlarly in the Congre- gation of Holy Cross. The need of Catholic high schools for boys was emphasized, Brother Florentius indi- cating that if this work is to be car- ried on successfully an increased number of teachers is essential, and therefore encouraged vocations to the brotherhood. The students seemed most interest- ed in two groups of slidesg the first group centered around the Sacred Heart College, Watertown, Wiscon- sin, the training school for boys who enter as postulants for the Brothers of Holy Cross. It is of this institu- tion that Brother Owen, our princi- pal of last year, is now director. r The second group of slides that attracted ECHO a great deal of attention were the nu- merous scenes of mission work con- ducted by the priests and brothers of Holy Cross in the far-off flelds of Bengal, India. Bengal is interesting to us as the foreign mission where one of the C. C. H. S. former teach- ers, Brother Gabriel, gave. up his life in 1914. Bengal is also the special object of our mission unit. Brother Florentius is not an utter stranger in Fort Wayne, although he had not been here since he taught our fathers twenty-five or thirty years ago. Brother Florentius was stationed here from 1891 to 1896. While here, Brother Florentius de- livered two lectures to the students of St. Augustine's Academy. One of the lectures was his famous Ben Hur, a most interesting lecture il- lustrated by 150 slides. We are looking forward to Broth- er's next visit. We hope to be' able to book him for a reading of Hamlet, The Merchant of Venice, Evange- line, or The Sign of the Cross, be- fore the winter is over. -Thomas M oKfierfn.0m, '23, Scotty Griffin's Feats On September 22 Sailor Scotty Grillin performed before the students and faculty. His demonstration was most unusual. The unlimited power over the muscles of his body, and the various feats he performed seemed most impossible. Nothing of the kind was ever seen in our school before, and the student body thoroughly enjoyed the demon- stration. The valuable assistance rendered by John Hediken of the senior class added much to the humor of the dem- onstration. f'Ain't it so, Red ? 1 -Robertfbltot, 223. THE ECHO 21 Father Dolan's Talk On the morning of October 10 the Reverend Patrick Dolan, C. S. C., a member of the Holy Cross mission band, gave us a very interesting talk in which he urged us to continue and to make the most of our high school course, and if possible to follow it up with college and university train- ing. He pointed out the great ne- cessity of diligent application to our secular studies, but stressed most em- phatically the absolute necessity of our making the most of the study of our religion as offered to us under the ideal conditions We have here, in possessing such a Well-equipped Cen- tral Catholic High School. Father Dolan had just finished preaching the Devotion of the Forty Hours, at St. Patrick's Church, and he congratulated the sixty-some boys from St. Patrick's on the splendid Way in which they made the devotion. He said he Was highly edifled by the piety of the boys in general, and was more than pleased to see so many of the high school boys serving in the sanctuary. Father Dolan, who is himself an able athlete of Herculean proportions, encouraged us to keep up our fighting spirit in athletics and clean sports, and expressed the hope that We would go through the season with our colors flying as proudly as they did the pre- vious Saturday. We thank Father Dolan for his kind visit and talk. We hope that he will call again. -Robert Boyle, 323. Armistice Day Memorial exercises on Armistice Day were held in the assembly room of the school. The progmm consist- ed of patriotic selections by the school orchestra, a spirited recital of In Flanders' F ields by Harry Jenny, and an explanation of the significance of the day by Mr. Robert M. Connelly, Dean of the Knights of Columbus Evening School, who Was appointed by the Red Cross to address the C. C. H. S. student body. The program closed with the singing of The Star Spangled Banner. In his talk Mr. Connelly briefly pointed out the causes of the War. He recounted how hard-pressed the Allies were at the time that our country en- tered the conflict, and the very vital part that the American army had taken in terminating it successfully. He emphasized especially the Work of Catholics not only in the army and navy of our country from the time of Commodore Barry, The Father of the American Navy, down to our time, but also of those in the service of other countries, and Who were fore- most in bringing the War to a suc- cessful issue. In conclusion, he ex- plained the significance of the day, and expressed the hope that the dis- armament conference Would effect completely what the World War had done in part. -Eugene Luley, 223. . -Tii1-- Rev. Wm. P. Lennartz Heard On November 22 the Rev. William P. Lennartz gave a very interesting talk to the members of the Freshmen class. The missionary-elect empha- sized in a particular manner the Work the Holy Cross priests and brothers are doing in the' mission field of Dacca, Eastern Bengal, India. The activities in this country in further- ance of their efforts Were also con- sidered. Father Lennartz pointed out that the diocese of Dacca, Whose Workers are all members of the Congregation 22 THE of Holy Cross, is as extensive as the state of Illinois, and its population is three times as great-59,000 square miles and 20,000,000 people. Lo- cated, as these missions are, in the cholera-breeding delta of the Ganges, or scattered over the hot plains of Bengal, or isolated in the wild hills of Arakan and Garodom, the Bengal Mission to caste-ridden Hindoos and fanatical Mohammedans is oue of the most arduous 'lu all the world. The speaker briefly described the aim and purpose of The Bengalese and how this precious little magazine now has an alarmingly large circu- lation without any solicitors out working for subscriptions. He hear- tily encouraged the students to follow the work of the missionaries by read- ing mission literature, and to con- tinue the good work of the former students of Central High. By a happy coincidence it so hap- pened that Father Lennartz was tell- ing us about the mission at the very time that two Indiana brothers, Bro- ther Walter of Indianapolis and Bro- ther Louis of Notre Dame, were get- ting their first glimpses of Dacca. These two Indiana volunteers left America on August 30, and after a brief visit in Rome and an audience with the Holy Father, they reached Bombay on November 19, and Dacca a few days later. -Arthur Zuber, 525. Father Conroyis Talk A few days after school opened, we assembled to listen to a short talk by Father Conroy. After pointing out that he was not speaking to us as the pastor of the Cathedral but as the messenger of our beloved bishop, Father Conroy went on to state that the improvements we could see about ECHO the place were only the beginnings of the things that would be done at the Central Catholic High School. He said that the bishop was extremely anxious to make our school one of the most up-to-date schools in the coun- try. The speaker pointed out that at the beginning we might have to undergo some little inconveniences due to the work that was yet to be accomplished before winter, but that we should have patience and we would see how nice our building could be made. He pointed out that new floors and new desks as well as new laboratories would be provided next summer. Father Conroy then encouraged us to make the most of the opportuni- ties that were ours, and went on to say that if we had any friends who were out of school because they could not aiord books or tuition that we should encourage them to present themselves for enrollment and that he would look after their needs. -Bernard Kallouyer, 223. Essay Contest In the early part of the year, the Reverend Thomas Conroy, pastor of the Cathedral, visited the Freshman class. He glanced over the seventy- two anxious faces and announced that he had a proposition to make to the students of the class. Father Conroy's proposition was that he would put up a ten-dollar gold piece as a prize for the winner of an essay contest. The conditions laid down were very sim- ple. The length of the paper was to be twelve hundred words. The time in which to write the essay would ex- pire at Christmas, and neatness would be a factor in the judging of the pa- pers. The subject matter is to be: The Necessity of, and the Reasons THE ECHO 23 for a Central Catholic High School in the City of Fort Wayne. The contest has brought about' con- siderable rivalry in the Freshmen English class. The money looks big to each and every member of the class. Every one Wants the ten dol- lars for Christmas. We thank Father Conroy for mak- ing this contest possible, and We also take this occasion to extend to him our sincere thanks for the great in- terest he has shown in us and in our school. We thank you, Father Con- roy. -Thomczs Doyle, '25. Saint Andrew's Day The annual entertainment given by the students in honor of our beloved bishop, the Right Reverend Herman Joseph Alerding, on the anniversary day of his consecration Was held in the assembly room on the afternoon of the Feast of St. Andrew, Novem- ber 30. The numbers on the program were rendered With that freedom so natural to our boys, and all enjoyed their unconscious personality. Selection ............... Crchestra Address ...........

It is with the , greatest love and es- teem We greet you, and We realize that God indeed has been good to us in permitting your sacred person to remain with us as our constant guide and inspiration. In mere Words We can but feelingly express the intense love, appreciation and praise that is your due for the splendid opportunity you have given us of becoming good Catholic young men. In establishing this, the Central Catholic High School, you placed Within reach of every' student the chance of higher education, safe- guarding the morals by religious in- struction at just that time in life When the pleasures 'of an evil path seem most seductive. Were any one of us to refuse to take advantage of your Wonderful Work, Right Rever- end Bishop, he would indeed be a Ju- das. But so much has your zealous endeavor imbued us with a love and respect for every emblem of Catholi- city, that in the heart of each and 24 THE every student burns the clear, steady fire of the true Catholic faith. ' Your efforts are not without results and results are more than marvelous. The actions of the graduates of this school prove to the most skeptical your wisdom in founding and sup- porting this institution of learning. Their lives show that your training and inspiration lingers even unto and beyond the portals of death. Your judgment in securing the Brothers of Holy Cross to instruct us can not be too highly commended. Your recent action in selecting the Reverend Thomas Conroy to succeed the almost incomparable Reverend John R. Quinlan has provided us with another enterprising and pro- gressive leader who has already proved greatly beneficial to the wel- fare of the school. We shall never forget that to you we owe not only a higher education, but whatever suc- cess we may attain in future years. We wish to take this occasion to extend our thanks for the more than satisfactory improvements our school building is now undergoing. They far exceed the expectations of even the most optimistic among us. When we stop to consider the mea- ger resources available to you for the upkeep of this school, and the things you have accomplished through self- sacrifice and holy endeavor, the re- sults are more than marvelous. Never discouraged, never faltering, even. when it seemed impossible to continue our school, you labored day after day' until today you command the admiration and respect of . every member of your diocese. Your large flock is one in which you can take a just pride. They could hardly be otherwise with such a good and noble leader to strengthen ECHO them by his own courage and blame- less actions. We can consider our- selves indeed favored by Christ in having you at the head of our com- munity. We all join our prayers with those of the faithful and well-wishers of your diocese in beseeching the gra- cious Saviour to permit you to re- main with us for many years to come. Even though He calls you, a faithful worker, to your eternal reward, mem- ory of you will always linger and your works will continue to manifest your wisdom to all those who enter these doors in future years. I repeat, no word we can speak, no deed we can do, will adequately ex- press our true feelings. They. are too deep for human utterance, too sacred for ears other than yours, or those of the glorious Christ you have served so well. ' In his response, Bishop Alerding pointed out the end and purpose of a school essentially Catholic, by show- ing that an education had to train the mind and heart, and by training these faculties, help us to work out God's destiny in our regard. He epito- mized the sciences and the sum of hu- man knowledge, and showed how we could fall short of the expectations of human life. After contrasting the two forms of education-purely sec- ular and the secular as combined with the religious-Bishop Alerding emphatically stressed what we ordi- narily style the externals of educa- tion. --Raymond M urphy, ,251 Frequent communion gives, first, a p e a c e f u l conscienceg second, strength against temptationg third, greater power of concentration in studies and in religion. -A Notre Dame Student.

Among these new books are several valuable, complete sets. We consider ourselves very fortu- nate in securing the complete set of twenty volumes of Classic Tales by Famous Authors. This is the Story Tellers' Edition which was limited to 6,000 numbers and registered copies. The Century Dictionary, an Ency- clopedia Lexicon of the English Lan- guage, in its twenty-four volume edition, is a precious duplicate of the more popular edition. The New Cambridge Edition of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, With Historical and Analytical Prefaces, Comments, Crit- ical and Explanatory Notes, Glos- saries, A Life of Shakespeare, and a History of the English Drama, in thirteen volumes, will be most helpful to the students of the higher English classes. 'fThe Pictorial History of Fort Wayne, in two volumes, a review of two centuries of occupation of the region about the head of the Maumee River, by B. J. Griswold, also con- tains the story of the townships of Allen County written by Mrs. Samuel R. Taylor. I Indiana and Indianians is a His- tory of Aboriginal and Territorial Indiana and a Century of Statehood, in five volumes written and edited by Jacob Piatt Dunn. Historic Mackinac, by Edwin O. Wood, LL.D., is the title of a set of books we were most anxious to get last year, and a set we had to bor- row in order to carry out our histori- cal essay work. The new books include the works of the Abbe Constant Fouard, Emmet J. ECHO Scott, Lyman Beecher Stowe and others. And last but not least, a rare bind- ing of the The Diocese of Fort Wayne,-A Book of Historical Refer- ence, 1169-1907, by our own dear bishop, and founder of our school, the Right Reverend H. J. Alerding. The students of the Central Catho- lic High School thank Father Lafon- taine, through whose generosity this valuable addition to our library was made possible, for this and his many other praiseworthy kindnesses to us. - -Lester Cofmzefrs, '22.

Among them are: Florian Arnold, Paul Berning, Dallas Costello, Robert Callahan, William Cooke, Emmet Kirkland, Charles McDonald, Louis McLaughlin, Frank Rogers, J. J. Welch and Nestor Zur- buch. The Purdue boys got together and organized a Catholic Club. They selected as spiritual director, Father McCarthy, . pastor of St. Ann's Church, Lafayette, who was the re- ligion teacher at the C. C. H. S. for nine years prior to the appointment of Father Dillon. Since the Purdue Exponent ceased to grace our read- ing table, we are unable to follow the Purdue boys day by day as we used to do. We congratulate Father Mc- Carthy and boys upon the new organ- ization at Lafayette. Frank Lallak, '20, recently re- turned to this city after finishing his course at the Rahe Auto School of Cincinnati. A Glance over our ads and you will get a line on Louis Centlivre of the class of '14, Louis says: Save It With Ice. Joe Mungovan, '21, through his eX- perience with The Echo, liked sub- scription work so well that after he was graduated he secured a position on the subscription staff of the Fort Wayne Evening Press. It's no won- der our freshmen ind so many new jobs open to them at the Press. Speaking of operations, Leo Weber, '16, has just recovered from a fourth operation for injuries received in a C. C. H. S. basketball game some five years ago. We hope that Leo will be himself from now on. Hugh Creigh, Maurice Elliot and Raymond Young, all of the class of '21, are now students at the Interna- tional Business College, here in Fort Wayne. Russell Ehinger of the Freshman class of last year is also at the International. Martin K o e s t e r, '18, and his brother Edward are living in Los An- geles, California. Martin is right at home in the Southwest, but Edward often says in his letters that he wish- es he could be back at old C.'C. Joseph Streifuss, '21, has taken up a position in Rochester, N. Y. Joe's subscription to The Echo was one of the first turned in. . Francis Wyss, '14, is now studying his second year of theology in Holy Cross College at the Catholic Univer- sity of America, Washington, D. C. lt won't be long until we'll have to call Frank, Father Wyss. Frank Doriot, '19, of Notre Dame, paid us a visit on his way to West Point to attend the Notre-Dame- Army game. Frank- gave such a spicy talk to the senior class that all the members of that distinguished body had to sit up and take notice. Frank was accompanied by George Hamilton, '19, of Michigan, who im- mediately after the game registered for a berth at Notre Dame. William E.

Clifford, '17, is a junior at the same institution. Aloysius Becker, '21, has been adopted by our own good Bishop Alerding for the Diocese of Fort Wayne, and is studying for the priest- hood at Niagara University, Niagara Falls, N. Y. From his first examina- tion report he is a shark when it comes to Greek. Keep it up Pete, Gordon Conway, '20, Herbert Con- way, '21, and Ralph Neeb, '21, are attending Miami University, Oxford, Ohio. Ralph Neeb made the Miami Freshman football team. Harvey Conway, '18, a brother of Gordon and Herbert, whose home is now at Oxford, Ohio, is continuing his studies for the priesthood at Mt. St. Mary's Seminary, Mt. Washing- ton, Ohio. Edward Cunningham, '19, is a student in the same seminary. Fort Wayne was too tame for Raphael Torres, our very popular Mexican student of last year. Ralph is now attending school in New York City. Paul Miller, '21, is right at home in Campion College, Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin. , Yes, the Zurbuchs. Steward is a student at Washington and Jefferson, Maurice is at Duquesne University, and Nestor is at Purdue. Alfred Junk, a member of the freshman class from St. Peter's, and a star traps player in the orchestra of last year, has taken up his studies for the priesthood at the Pontifical Col- lege Josephinum, Columbus, Ohio. Reports have it that Anthony N. Trapp, '17, is doing well at the Uni- versity of Chicago. Anthony will be remembered as a famous athletic di- rector during his school days here. . The Reverend Charles F. Gerardot, ECHO 2 '13, who got the first diploma given by the C. C. H. S., is now chaplain at St. Anthony's Hospital, Michigan City, Indiana. Father Gerardot spent Thanksgiving week in Fort Wayne, and warned the editor of The Echo to be sure the school paper be mailed to him at Michigan City. Maurice Passino, '21, is holding down a position at the Lincoln Na- tional Bank. Maurice knew how to Link Up with the Lincoln. Robert Kelty, one of the best artists The Echo ever had, is now taking a course at the Art Institute, Chicago. Joseph Tompkins, '13, was last heard from when he left for France in the world war. Since that time the Alumni have lost all trace of him. Florian Ryder, '13, is growing old with the First and Hamilton National Bank. Florian has a warmspot in his big heart for the old school and its teachers, and never misses an occa- sion to show his super-abundant gen- erosity. Last spring, when your edi- tor spent a month in St. J oseph's Hos- pital, Florian was around each day to see him. Thanks, Florian. We are glad to state that Thomas Adrian Hayes, '13, has fully recov- ered, and to look at him. a person would be tempted to say he never was sick. Mr. Hayes spent much of his time getting us ready for the Armis- tice Day parade., and then due to bad weather we did not march. We en- joyed his talks, stories and instruc- tions all the same. ' Francis E. Litot, '15, who has been associated with the Frank Dry Goods Company since 1915, got tired of the bachelor's life, and is now what every Catholic layman should be, a married man and an American home-builder. To Frank and the bride, The Echo offers its congratulations. l I l l l , l THE A MAMMOTH Ft.

Clarence Kinder, '17, and his brother Harry are contractors and spend much of their time looking after the construction of new homes for Fort Wayne aristocrats. Richard App, Robert Gordon and Joseph Luley, of the University of Notre Dame, were here for the To- ledo game. Raymond Stephan, '21, of Notre Dame University, was called home by the death of his brother Lawrence on November 12. To Raymond and the other members of the family we ex- tend our sincere and prayerful sym- pathy. The Fort Wayne Knights of Colum- bus knew what they were doing when they re-elected J . Stephan Web- er, '13, Grand Knight. He has shown on several different occasions during the past year that he is equal to any task that might be given him. Yes, even in school Steve was a leader. If you glanced at our advertising perhaps you noticed the name of Stephan F. DeWald, '14, If you haven't found the name, perhaps you'll look for it. Several of the old boys got home for Thanksgiving, and many of them called at the school, and gave the place the once over. Eddie Baker, '21, who worked en- ergetically on the production of The Echo last year, took time out to give us some useful suggestions. Eddie is putting on weight very rapidly at Notre Dame, and has it figured out that at his present rate, he will tip the scale at near four hundred by the time he is graduated. Edwin Maley, who was very sick at St. Joseph's Hospital, is now able to be in school again. Edwin was the ECHO 3 J boy who drove all the way from Ar- cola to tell his teachers that he was too sick to come to school one day last fall. 1 Lester Conners of the Sophomore class was critically ill with acute ap- pendicitis at Thanksgiving time. He was rushed to St. Joseph's Hospital, where an operation was performed. Due to skillful and devoted attention of Dr. Bruggemann and the kind ministrations of the good Sisters and attendants, Lester will soon be him- self again. James D. Hayes, '13, is still in Washington with the United States Veterans' Bureau. He is now man- ager of the Fourth District with headquarters in Washington. He will be with us for Christmas. Emmett Rohyans is also located in Washington with the law firm of Gil- bert and Miller. Eugene O'Connell, 13, is a hard man to follow. Cne week he has a good job and the next week a better. Eugene has great ambitions and has pep enough to put over anything he tries. At present he is identified with the J ournal-Gazette and the Rub-No- More Company in this city. Jerry Miller is as usual interested in the typesetting game and is one of the best boosters we have. Many of the improvements in the Echo were made at J erry s suggestion. Thomas A. Hayes is able to be about again and is connected with Hayes and Hayes, 501 Bass Block, in this city. We take delight in quoting the fol- lowing item from the J ournal-Ga- zette. We were going to run it in the Notre Dame-Fort Wayne Club section but then we thought it would fit bet- ter in here: I Z I Q Af at V Cmtrammci 6, ,a fz fasf H6 U5 E J V EESTABLISHED SE MEMS 2 Q l!fl5EU,1T'1JJER55 CALHOUN .STREET 'E IIAQ' Fort Wayne, Ind.

Clifford B. Ward, 230 Williams St., has been elected secretary of the Indiana Club, the largest state organ- ization on the campus, numbering 300 men, Aaron H. Huguenard, 407 Wayne street, has been re-named edi- tor of the Notre Dame Scholastic, of- iicial University weekly, and Joseph Luley has been elected secretary of the Writers' club, most select of jour- nalistic organizations at the univer- sity. Mr. Ward will graduate in jour- nalism in 1923, was secretary of the Writers' Club last year and also a member of the Press, Advertising and Philosophers Clubs. Mr. Hugue- nard was a member of the Scholastic Board last year and the general ex- cellence of his work secured him a renewal of his appointment. He will have direct charge of the personal columns of the periodical. He was also an editor of the Notre Dame Law Reporter last year and a member of the Law Club. He graduates in law in 1922. Mr. Luley is a freshman in journalism at Notre Dame and was the only member of his class selected for office in the club of which he is a member. He is also a member of the Indiana and Press Clubs. Aaron Huguenard was highly hon- ored by the University by being made the recipient of the Monsignor F. A. O'Brien Prize for the year 1921. The O'Brien Prize, founded in 1917 by a gift of 31,000 from Mr. Edwin O. Wood, of Flint, Michigan, in honor of the Right Reverend Monsignor F. A. ECHO O'Brien, D.D., of Kalamazoo, Michi- gan, is awarded annually to one or more students, in any college of the University, for special study and dis- tinction in an historical subject desig- nated by the President or by the Academic Council of the University. In 1921, the essays were limited to subjects dealing with the Northwest Territory. Mr. Huguenard's essay was entitled: Pierre Gibault: First American of the West. - - l OUR TEACHERS, PAST AND PRESENT Our old teachers are now stationed in the following institutions of learn- ing: Cathedral High School, Indianapolis, Ind. -Brother Bernard and Brother Gregory.

Well, we went and did it, and we're proud of it. Yes, sir! The Notre Dame-Fort Wayne Club is no longer a myth, a pipe-dream of some few active-minded but modest underclass- men, it is a live, teeming actuality. For three years now, Fort Wayne men at the University of Our Lady have wondered why there was not some sort of organization represent- ing their interests. lt was common- place to hear remarks to the effect that the C. C. boys should get to- gether and do things, real things. Certainly, there was no good reason why the graduates of a high school which had conquered the overwhelm- ing odds of other schools throughout the country should not step out at Notre Dame. We met for the first time in official conclave Sunday, October 9, 1921. There was a fine turnout. Cliff Ward, Jerry Arnold and Sub Miller were chosen as a committee to draw up the constitution, and they did an admirable job of it. A week later the election' of officers came. Brother Florian, who taught in the Summit City in the days of Umustached schoolboys Cwe use the term advis- edly, cf. C. C. H. S. Record, page 125 was elected honorary president. Be- fore we go any further, we might say a unique feature of the affair was that all the officers were chosen unani- mously. 'Aaron H. Huguenard, '18, was given the presidency. Leslie Logan, '19, was picked to act as chief in case Aaron should be absent. q Edward Lennon, '19, was made the guardian of the pen. Maurice Boland, '21, after his record in Dun and Brad- street had been found unsmirched, was given the custody of the bank ECHO book. The charter members are: Ed- ward J. Lennon, Joseph F. Luley, Maurice J. Boland, Edward J. Baker, Raymond C. Stephan, Jerome C. Ar- nold, Cornelius J. Hayes, Robert K. Gordon, Richard P. App, Sebastian J. Miller, Donald McDonald, Edgar P. Welch, Aaron H. Huguenard, Her- man G. Centlivre, F. Leslie Logan, Francis S. Doriot, Edward S. Sulli- van, Clifford B. Ward, Richard G. Deininger, Joseph E. Miller, A. Pat- rick Hyland, and Elmo J. Ehinger. We are now making plans for a Christmas banquet, which is intended to be a get-together meet for all N. D. men residing in Fort Wayne. We know it will be a success but we'd rather not say so much about it now, and let our actions talk later on. Bob Gordon is a natural-born dip- lomat. -The other day, Aaron Hu- guenard was brandishing his senior cane in the debonair fashion of Louis Quarterze. How do you get the coin to buy all these ornamental appendages, Aaron ? asked the clever blond. '4Oh, that's nothing, Bob, said the unsuspecting lawyer. I've got lots of that stuff. I knew you had, old chap. Just sign your name on this paper and come across with fifty cents for your Echo subscription. -A. A. H. . Dick Doinger is so engrossed with his accountancy work that he seldom gets time to take recreation. If Notre Dame were to hold a most popular man contest, we are sure Frank Doriot would rank high. Frank spends much of his time preparing the football team to win its victories. -J. Arnold. OFFICE PHONE 1269 PLATE, MIRRORS, STORE FRONTS AND WINDSHIELD GLASS Enterprise Art Glass Co.

Eddie Baker, his chum, has discov- ered that a typewriter will go back- ward and forward as well as skidding around the corner and ringing a bell for help. Edgar Welch, coach extraordinary of every prominent football team in the country, including that of Badin Hall. One of the best bull throwers in the Spanish class. Acceptable but not excepted. Sebastian Miller- I haven't time, boys. I've a good deal of work to do. It was too bad Sub did not go out for athletics, but his course does not give him much freedom. Joe Luley-H a n d s o m e Joe is achieving success' as a contributor to the editorial columns of The Scholas- tic. Has distinction of creating somewhat of a sensation beyond the lake. B o b G o r d o n-lanky as ever, straight edge hair cut, his good hu- mor still prevailing. The friendly chats which he has with the prefect of Brownson rec room have devel-- oped into a sort of second nature with Legs, Dick App- You never saw our Peerless go. Dick was under the weather the first two weeks or so but is in line with the rest of the gang again. Maurice Boland-We haven't seen much of Maurice lately. Rumor has it, however, that he can be found ECHO most any time in Brownson study room showing other fellows what strong power of concentration can do for one. 1 Don. McDonald is very popular at breakfast time. He is right there with the hot buns. Pat. Hyland, our old friend from Decatur, is in the ranks of the Carrol- lites. Pat will be remembered as half-back for Decatur H. S. against C. C. last fall. -H ermafh G. Cefhtlfifvfre. Sleep that mends the ravelled sleeve of care. It is hard to say whether Ed. Lennon's sleeve was un- ravelled, or whether the distinguished budding barrister knows much about care, but The Echo reporter has this to tell about him. You know Ed. is supersaturated with school spirit and, of course, that demands one should never miss a football game within a thousand mile radius. Ergo, Mr. Lennon decided to see N. D. beat Pur- due even though he was blushing about monetary embarrassments. How he got to LaFayette from South Bend will be a blank page in the history of Notre Dame, how he got back may be a blank in his mind, but it isn't in the case of the rest of the fellows. As was mentioned be- fore, he was sans funds. He filed in- to the coach' fimagine his intestinal strengthj, threw two seats back to back, crawled into the wedge-shaped cavity, draped some luggage-in front of him, and was off. The conductor smelt a rat Cas Terence said some two thousand years agob and started searching the car for the tort-feasor. He found the rascal but could not get him out for Lennon was dead to the world.

He knew that sound ethics required he take the speaker of Hiawatha into tow, but if a burly conductor couldn't awaken him, how could he CFrankie7 do it? Well, to end a long story, Hec Garvey and Tom Lieb, the football' giants, were called to his assistance just as the train was pulling out. Ed. still limps as a result of his cramped sleep from Purdue to Notre Dame. It is to be hoped the power of sug- gestion works no evil effect upon the reader but here is another sleepy story. Herman Centlivre, the dash- ing quarterback of those bad Badin- ites, retires early in order to main- tain the clarity of his complection. The other night, Herman sought the luxury of the eiderdown about 7 130, and immediately he was in com- munion with Morphine, or whoever the god of sleep is. if f f f These stars signify oblivion. Then, a tapping and the metallic voice of the prefect: Centlivre! With all the dash and vim he puts into an end run, the counterpart of Paganini hurdled into his clothes. It was still dark out and as he saw the spire of St. lVIary's glistening in the moon- light, he muttered: Gosh, they get a fellow up too early around here. He sprinted to the chapel, only to find it dark and deserted. Then, he saw the prefect and asked the time. Just ten P. M., Herman. Weren't you in your room when I checked up a few minutes ago ? A. A.

S. followers are looking forward to the basketball season, and although Julian Koehl is the only regular re- maining from last year, prospects are promising for the best team that the school has had since 1919. There is a wealth of material in school, and with Coach Flaherty's knowledge of the game, and his knack of getting work from his men, there is no fear that the season will not be a success- ful one. With this end in view, the hardest schedule that has ever con- fronted a C. C. H. S. team has been arranged. Games with St. Rose High of Lima, Ohio, Fort Wayne High, and Monroeville are yet to be added. December 9-Alumni. December 16-St. Rose High of Lima, here. December 20-Garrett High School at Garrett.

Besides our old gang, several new men have joined our class. Joseph Kinstle, who spent the past two years in the preparatory department at St. John's University, Toledo, Ohio, re- turned to finish with the good bunch he started out with four years ago. Clyde Hanson, a former pupil of the public high school, joined us this year. John Haley and Kenneth Lo- gan deserted the quantity class of last year to be with the quality class of '22, Thus we are starting this year with a larger class than we started with last year, and judging by the in- terest in the work, everybody is very anxious not only to get a sheepskin but everything else that the school can give by way of honors at the end of the year. We feel happy to say that we think the Senior class is doing everything it can to make the year a success in every way possible. When we held class elections, Julian Koehl was elected class presi- dent, William Foohey was made sec- retary, and for the fourth consecutive year we placed our fund in the hands of Bernard Kinstle. For a time we thought that Bernard-more popu- larly known as Bun -was about to desert us, but the wind has blown over and Bun will stick with us to the end. f I We occupy the room we had last year but it is not in the same condi- tion. The new windows, new black- boards, and new furniture along with the freshly painted walls and the new ornaments thereon, help to make the room a very agreeable place in which to study. When it comes to athletics, we hold the honor of contributing the captain of the football team. Julian Koehl, John Haley, Clyde Hanson and Ber- nard Kinstle were on the football team, and some of our men are trying out for the basketball team. We are right there when it comes to backing the team. Our president, Julian Koehl, leads the class and the school in getting Echo subscriptions. Clyde Hanson made a good showing in the same work. Several of our good talkers al- so helped to get the ads. Emmet Mills deserves special credit in this line of work. l i A. C.

It was only after the entertainment for the Feast of St. Andrew that we realized that we were the top notchers in the school. We are trying to conduct ourselves in such a way that the undergraduates can look to us as the models for the school. Now that we have our shoul- ders to the wheel we mean to keep them there so as to make the weight of the burden lighter for those who will follow us. -Joseph Bopp, '22 Juniors What does the angry mob say? Yea! Hurrah for the powers be- hind the throne I Nine rahs for the Bishop, the Superintendent, and the Faculty! That's the way we acted on the morning of September the sixth. After the cheering, we formed a snake dance, but that was suddenly broken up by a prominent member of the faculty. To make a long story short, we all came back except John Schwanz. Last year one of the teach- ers told Johnny that he knew too much, and being a very credulous little gentleman, he got a good job during vacation and started to apply his superabundant knowledge. We are sorry to lose John as he was a splendid student and a little gentle- man always. We have the same num- ber of Juniors as we had Sophomores last year for Oran Hickman, of Wolcottville, came to take our smart boy's place. A few days later when a conditioned Junior could not get the idea of working off conditions and se- cured his credits for the public high school, James Belot, who had been working for two years, decided he wanted the only available desk in the Junior room and returned to school. James is a thorough student and we ECHO are glad to welcome him to our midst. We managed to get the old Senior room, which is considered the most convenient and best equipped room in the school. We did not get it on our good looks or our splendid scholar- ship, but, as we were emphatically in- formed, because no other room would hold us. When the call was sounded for football players, we led the school by placing seven regulars and three subs on the team. Our class promises to show up wonderfully in athletics, for after our splendid showing in foot- ball we are responding generously to basketball. It looks as though the famous Sophomore team of last year will go a long ways in the making of the V arsigy string. In our class this year we have rep- resentatives from Wolcottville, Hesse Cassel, New Haven, Monroeville, Summit City, Lagro and Arcola, who by association with us now act like real Fort Wayners. When it comes to study and duties, no matter whether ethics, solid geom- etry, algebra, English, Spanish, Latin, chemistry or religion makes the demands, it is the spirit of the class that we give the best that is in us. Our class is spending itself to make The Echo a success. We worked hard on the advertising and made a pretty good showing with subscrip- tions as Well. We gave up the publi- cation of our three-year-old Bull so as to be able to concentrate our work on The Echo. Just lamp the articles labeled '23 and be convinced that our efforts were not in vain. Our class work is as clock Work and whenever we see a student unable to supply himself with the required 1 i 1, DANIEL BROS.

At the class elections we re-elected Pat Donahue president for the third term. Thomas McKiernan is our sec- retary, and Mr. Joseph Cliiord is the custodian of our funds. The office of treasurer was the hardest to fill. Ar- cola Smith and Tiny Clifford tied for the job and we had to hold a spe- cial election. Due to the workings of the Windy machine, Tiny was elected. At the pep meeting for The Echo, four of the eight volunteer speakers were members of the class of '23, In fact we were so imbued with the Echo spirit that when the new faculty sponsor called for workers the Juni- ors offered to do the work alone: if necessary. Thanks to the generous response of the other students it was not necessary for us to do it, and hence we only helped to produce this issue. Thanks for reading our class notes. A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you, our friends. -Eugene Call, '23 Sophomlores The opening of school wasn't de- layed any by the many improvements that were being made, and the fresh Sophomores, to quote a Freshman, tumbled in with the rest. Everything was ready for usp even our names were engraved with chalk on our fu- ture desks. After giving the names of our ancestors, getting the list of the books that we were to wrestle with, and becoming acquainted with the same in twenty-minute sessions, ECHO we were dismissed until one o'clock. So much for the first day. A few days later a call was issued for martyrs for the football team, and the Sophs sent out their quota in the persons of Bushman, Eckert, Martin, Ferguson, and Belot. Bushman and Eckert won regular berths. The rest of sus had to be content to get our bruises on the Sophomore team, but enthusiasm was lacking. We played only one game, that with the Fresh- men, and thanks to the Freshmen punter fhe kicked the ball over his head and over our goal line where Kelker fell on ity, we won 6 to 0. The next thing in line was the elec- tion of class officers. Chub Graf had just undergone an operation for appendicitis a few weeks earlier, and that fact placed him beyond the sphere of common mortals. 'As a re- sult he was re-elected for president. Bushman, showing some of the ora- torical sparks that made his brother Ed famous a few years ago, was given the minute-book, and Mike Hogan was given charge of the treas- ury department, since he has never been known to worry. In the months that have passed since the opening of school, several of our members have signally distin- guished themselves. Sorg and Parrot are locally known for their glowing oratory. Boussey also claims atten- tion in English class to explain the manufacture of fabric tires. Hussel- man created a sensation when he came to school in hip-boots, and made a speech on lumberjacks. Martin al- so gained admittance into the select list when he wrote a story so lengthy that the English teacher has not yet finished reading it.

Among the members of this excep- tionally large class we have artists, comedians, poets, and athletes. Speaking of artists, we have two Who excel in the musical line. John- ny Burke and Clarence Whitmer rival each other for excellency on the vio- lin. In this regard we are following the example set by the class of last year. Harry Swift, who is now a Sophomore, was the key demon of the Freshman class of last year. In cartooning it would be hard to beat Joseph Oddou, who is especially good. If the present cartoonist of The Echo staff does not be on the lookout, Joe is apt to beat him out. In comedy we have leaders in the persons of Jenny, Adamski, Brudi, and our seven red heads. Mulligan, Whitaker and Libbing have been making names for them- selves in football, and they have sev- eral companions lining up with them for basketball. Paul Tierney, Stephan Moran, and several other bright guys keep The Echo editor busy looking over verse for The Echo. I When we had class elections, we made Arthur Zuber fwho worked for several years before starting to high school, and is, consequently, a leader of abilityb our president. Johnny Burke was elected secretary, and Gerald Libbing our treasurer. Libbing handles the money and got us splen- did monograms at about one-third of the price we were asked to pay at first. Our class tall man is Loos, our fat man is Crouse, our skinny boy is Eg- geman, and our dwarf is Weber. Our hard workers, well we don't want to hurt anybody's feelings, but we think we might be safe in giving the names of Doyle, Oddou, Orff, Mul- haupt, Parrot, Perrey, Pequignot and Roy, who got one or more marks of 100 per cent on the first examination. We are all working hard on the Father Conroy Essay Contest. The prize looks big to everybody in view of the fact that the money will come in mighty handy around Christmas. We take a distinct pride in being able to call ourselves the biggest class that ever entered the C. C. H. S. At present we number three score and twelve. Just one-half of this number is from St. Patrick's parish. We have boys in our class who have been out of school one, two, three, four, and even five years, but we are all students to a man. Just watch us do things. , -Frederick Weber, '25, DANCE 5 MANY STUDENTS Mounrvso ru WHO DIED UURING THE EARLY.PART OF THIS TERM.

H. S. player in- football squad were lost by gradua- tion, C. C. H. S. supporters looked forward to this season's football team only as a preparation for 1922. Frank Flaherty, '16, however, took charge of the Central hopefuls and did wonders. The boys outplayed every team that they were pitted against with the ex- ception of the Central high of To- ledo and the Cathedral High of Indi- anapolis. Of last year's Varsity there re- mained only Julian Koehl, Haley, Clifford, Centlivre, Donahue, Suelzer and Bushman. Graf, long-distance punter of 1920, underwent an opera- tion during the summer and was not allowed to play. Prospects looked brighter when Hanson, a hard-hitting half-back from Fort Wayne High, en- tered school. The finds of the season were McKiernan, Rinehart, Norbert Koehl, Eckert, Hickman, Kinstle and Fitzgerald, who, although they had no previous football experience, de- veloped into consistent and heady players. Libbing, Mulligan and Whit- aker joined the squad in mid-season, and show great promise for next year. The credit for the showing of the team is due to Frank Flaherty, who volunteered his services, and who en- tirely won the confidence of his charges. That he kept them in trim and taught them the game is shown by the fact that not once during the j ured seriously. Captain Julian Koehl, Hanson, Haley, and Kinstle will be lost by graduation, and while their loss will be severely felt, it is our prediction that next year Coach Flaherty will win the success that his efforts deserve. GAMES C. C. H. S., 21. GARRETT H. S., 0. The team played its first game Oc- tober 7th against our ancient rivals, Garrett, and won a mud battle. Re- membering the formidable teams that represented Garrett in former years, the Centrals were just a little doubt- ful about the outcome. The game was won, however, before it began. The home fans remarked what a pity it was that the Fort Wayne boys had to soil their new suits. When Coach Flaherty heard this he ordered his charges to take a few swan dives. There being water a-plenty, they did it to the astonishment of their oppo- nents. The rest was easy. The scoring began in the first quar- ter. Displaying powerful drives, the Central backs carried the ball down the Held. On the two-yard line Cap- tain Koehl fumbled, but reliable Joe Clifford recovered and slid across the line for the first touchdown of the year. The second score came in the third quarter after Garrett carried the ball to the C. C. H. S. ten-yard line, where John H.

Centlivre punted out of danger. ,Garrett once more lost the ball on downs, and the Central backfield began another' pro- cession down the field. On the twenty- yard line Centlivre punted over the goal and Donahue scored on an on- side kick. Koehl kicked goal. C. C. scored two more points on a safety, Bushman tackling a Garrett player behind the goal line. The final score was made a few minutes later by Captain Koehl, who intercepted a pass and ran thirty yards through the Garrett team. The C. C. H. S. line-up follows: Haley and Bushman, ends, Clifford, Rinehart, and Kinstle, tackles, Suel- zer, Eckert, and Hickman, guards, lVIcKiernan, center, Donahue, quar- twback, J. Koehl, Hanson, and N. Koehl, halves, Sentlivre, fullback. C. C. H. S., 7. DECATUR H. S., 10. Cn October 14th the Central root- ers chartered a special car and went to Decatur to see the varsity in action against the Decatur H. S. The game was hard-fought throughout, but Flaherty's men lost by a score of 10 to 7. C. C. received the kickoff and starting a drive down the field, crossed the goal line in the first five minutes of play. The score was not allowed, however, the head linesman allegingthat a Fort Wayne man was off-side. On the next play Captain Koehl dropped a pass behind the line and the ball was put in play on the twenty-yard line in Decatur's posses- sion. Before the quarter ended De- catur succeeded in pushing over a touchdown. No further scoring was done during the second quarter and the half ended '7 to 0. The C. C. H. S. boys entered the third quarter full of fight, and on the ECHO kickoff again started toward the De- catur goal. A short pass, Hanson to Koehl, resulted in a touchdown, and Hanson kicked goal, tieing the score. Decatur won the game in the last few minutes of play. Gaw, on a trick play, ran thirty-five yards to the C. C. H. S. twenty yard line, where he suddenly came to a halt when he was confronted by Donahue. Cn end runs and line smashes the home team advanced the ball to the Central two-yard line, where Decatur lost it on downs. Centlivre, standing 'oehind his own goal line punted the ball beyond the middle of the field, 'out once more in an inopportune mo- ment the head linesman ruled a Cen- tral man offside, and the ball was brought back. Centlivre punted again, butf this time the ball traveled only thirty yards. Decatur 'carried it to the twenty-yard line, and Gaw kicked a goal from placement, win- ning the game 10 to 7. The Centrals received the kickoff and once more went down the field, but with victory in sight the game ended. C. C. H. S., 33. BLUFFTON H. S., 14. On October 14 the Purple and Gold met Bluffton H. S. in the first home game of the season, and won a thrill- ing contest, 33 to 14. Bluffton had a dangerous aerial attack, and in the early minutes of the game forward passed its way to a touchdown. In the second quarter the Centrals got down to work. On off-tackle plays they carried the ball to the twenty-five-yard line, and on the next play Captain Koehl broke loose and scored a touchdown. Rinehart kicked goal. Before the quarter ended Koehl scored his second touchdown on a twenty-yard dash off-tackle. I L R, I - if 1 If V l '1 l I Frank J. Belot julian F.

Bluffton received the kick-off in the second half, and again displaying a flashy aerial attack crossed the C. C. H. S. goal iive minutes after the play commenced. Early gave his team a one-point lead when he kicked his second goal after a touchdown. Things began to look dismal when Captain Koehl was forced out of the game with injuries, but Pat Donahue dispelled the gloom when he broke away and scored a touchdown after a forty-yard run on a criss-cross play, giving his team the lead again, 19 to 14. In the last quarter Central had everything its own way. Donahue scored a touchdown on an on-side kick, and a few minutes later, Norbert Koehl, who played a great game in place of Hanson, who was injured in the Decatur game, made the final touchdown on a thirty-yard sprint off tackle. C. C. H. S., 0. CENTRAL HIGH, 14. On Cctober 29 the Central Cath- olic High of Toledo invaded our shores and fought a sea battle. They proved to be better sailors than the Fort Wayne Centrals were and won out, 14 to O. The game was played in a continual downpour, and the players became so covered with mud that it was next to impossible to dis- tinguish them. We did notice a Mr. Cooney, however, gather in a neat pass in the second quarter after To- ledo had intercepted one of the Fort Wayne passes, and dashed over for a touchdown. Until that time the game was rather evenly fought, with the peppery Toledo aggregation hav- ing the edge, if edge there was. The visitors made their second touchdown in the third quarter, Bech- tel hurling a twenty-yard pass to EcHo A Connell, who stepped across the go d line. Bechtel kicked goal. ' i As in other games, the C. C. H. if showed its fighting spirit in the la quarter. Defeated, they never gav up, and started a drive down the fielf that was halted on the ten-yard lin only by the timekeeper's whistle. . The game marked the opening ef' athletic relations with the Toledo. school and we look forward wit pleasure to future meetings. C. C. H. S., 0. F. W. H.

Cpen field runnin or passing was impossible, and, a one youngster put it, the game ende 0 to 0 in favor of Central High. Tha? was also the verdict of the many fan who witnessed the game, for Fo' Wayne High was outplayed through out the entire contest except for brief period in the third quarter. H Neither side threatened dangerous' ly during the first period, but in th second quarter Central carried th ball to Fort Wayne's twenty-yar line. Captain Koehl attempted . drop kick, but it wentwide. ' In the third quarter Fort Wayn started strong and carried the bali to the C. C. twenty-yard line, bu, there they lost it on downs. Rinehart punted out of danger. A few min. utes later C. C. had the ball on Fo , Wayne's thirty-yard line and on fouf plunges carried it to the Blue an White's five-yard line.

In the fourth period Fort Wayne opened with passes, two of them be- ing successful for first downs. Their advance was checked, however, when Bushman intercepted one of their passes. The game ended with the ball in Central's possession on their opponent's forty-yard line. Both teams played well throughout, despite the slow field, while the work of the C. C. H. S. linesmen was espe- cially prominent. They had their thinking caps on, forseeing play after play, and thereby spilling Fort Wayne runners forlosses on many occasions. Notwithstanding the great rivalry between the two schools the game was clean throughout, and did much towards making high school football popular in succeeding years. C. C. H. S., 0. CATHEDRAL HIGH, 19. The Notre-Dame-Indiana game of last year was vividly recalled to twelve hundred spectators at Indi- anapolis on Thanksgiving Day when, after a gruelling battle Central's gridders succumbed to the powerful Cathedral High, 19 to 0. It was a hard-won victory, and it required every one of Coach Feeney's twenty- two men to secure it. The Cathedral players excelled in line plunges, while the Centrals outclassed their oppo- nents in end runs and passes, of which seven out of ten were suc- cessful. Cathedral's first touchdown was made in the second quarter, and was a result of Rinehart's withdrawal from the game due to injuries. He played a bear's game at tackle, and his withdrawal left a hole through which the Cathedral backs plowed for gains that resulted in a touch- down. In the third quarter Indianapolis ECHO injected an entire fresh squad into the fray, but the battered C. C.'s aston- ished it and the spectators by its aerial attack. Time after time it suc- ceeded only to fail when Fort Wayne threatened Cathedral's goal. The fourth period saw the Indi- anapolis first string men back in the fray, and they waded through the ex- hausted Centrals for two touchdowns. The C. C. H. S. men, however, never gave up, and drew the admiration of the crowd by the passing of Cent- livre and the almost impossible catches of Bushman. Sisson, Jackson and Marks were the individual stars for Indianapolis, while the defensive playing of Rinehart, Eckert, and Haley, and the offensive work of Cap- tain Koehl, Norbert Koehl, and Bush- man were the outstanding features of the Centrals' play. Cathedral High used two teams, but any school that is fortunate enough to have two reliable squads would act unwisely not to use them in a hard contest. Central Catholic High is proud of her small squad that held to a narrow margin a team which revels in high scores. u- 11 l THANKS At the beginning of the football season, Jerry Miller, '13, always a great booster of the school, took means to insure the proper protection of the players by making it possible to purchase the necessary equipment.

HGENTLEMEN-While I now receive with much satisfaction your congratulations on my being called by a unanimous vote to the yirst station in my country, I can but duly notice your politeness of- fering an apology for the unavoidable delay. As that delay has given you an opportunity of realizing, instead-of anticipating, the benefits of the general government, you will do me the justice to believe that your testimony to the increase of the public prosperity enhances the pleasure which I should otherwise have experienced from your affec- fectionate address. A I feel that my conduct in the war and nin peace has met with more than general approbation than could reasonably 'have been ex- pected, and I find myself disposed to consider that fortunate circum- stance, in a greatdegree, resulting from the able support and extraor- dinary candor of my fellow citizens of all denominations. The prospect of national prosperity now before us is truly ani- mating, and ought to excite the exertions of 'all good men to establish and secure the happiness of their country, in the permanent duration of gits freedom and independence. America, under the smiles of di- vine Providence, the protection of a good government, the cultivation of manners, morals and piety, can hardly fail of attaining an uncom- mon degree of eminence in literature, commerce, agriculture, improve- ments at home, and respectability abroad. As 'mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protection of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost naitons in examples of justice and liberality. And I presume that your fellow citizens will not forget the patriotic part which you took in the accomplishment of their revolution and the establishment of their government, or the im- portant assistance which they received from a nation in which the Roman Catholic religion is professed. I thank you, gentlemen, for your kind concern for me. While my life and health shall continue, in whatever situation.I may be, it shall be my constant endeavor to justify the favorable sentiments you are pleased to express of my conduct. And may the members of your society in America, animated alone by the pure spirit of Christianity, and still conducting themselves as the faithful subjects of our free government, enjoy every temporal and spiritual felicityf' -The Writings of Washington, XII, 177-179. 4 THE ECHO I AY ywxvf-Xf'.'fZ., CxSX.:f1f'Q v'z ' ':P! .,r,'J'f4- ' 1-.Z-,Ig-I x ' 4 '.v?!5 i '. - . . - . : :: - x f.2i2Q,1-f' -Ig-:K f -' ' vga -3' 1: Q 'b' Y 1 - f I- 1if:'.ff , X 'N ' fi? 59551 Z X -1 .gn--fi: A., f , '-':1?I-1' ' '- .l.. .

And -though time's relentless finger Destroys your stony bed, Memory of you will linger, King of our noble dead. -John N. Haley, '22, Washington An Immortal Model Through the pages of the world's histories George Washington stands out in bold relief as a model for statesmen and for men in private life as well. Woodrow Wilson says of him: That noble figure drew all eyes to it, that mein, as if the man was a prince, that serene and open countenance, which every man could see was lighted by a good conscience, that cordial ease is salute, as of a man who felt himself brother to his friends. There was something about Washington that quickened the pulse of a crowd at the same time that it awed them, that drew cheers which were a sort of voice of worship.. Children desired sight of him, and, men felt lifted after he had passed. Washington embodied in himself, all these qualities we love to find in- the human heart. He was kind and pathetic to those in trouble, fatherly to the men in his charge, stern and fearless in time of war, calm and ma- jestic in time of peace. He possessed-. that humility of heart that we seldom find today in men of affairs. Look l at his reply to Congress after he was 1 named commander-in-chief 1 Since 1 Congress desires, I wi-ll enter upon the momentous duty and exert every -I power I possess in their service andy for the support of the glorious cause. f But I beg it may be remembered by 7. every gentleman in the room, that I-, this day declare, with the utmost sin- cerity, I do not think myself equal to yg the command I am honored with. 'i This does not show want of courage, Qi for we know that he set out immedi- ately on horseback from Philadelphia? to Boston, a very long journey. E Washington never gave Way to dis- 1 couragement and all who are familiar ,, with American history know what he had to go through from the very be-Q ginning of his command. His meng were not drilled, neither did they' have uniforms nor a sufficient amount of powder. The soldiers enlisted for but a short period of time each, andr would be nearly trained for effective service when their term expired. In the face of all these difficulties Wash-. ington kept up not only his own cour- age, but that of the nation as well. I The noble general was as prudent as he was courageous. Never did he risk the lives of his men, nor waste ammunition in vain. Every marchi and attack was well contemplated THE ECHO 5 id many a time did Congress urge m to act, but the prudent soldier 1ew that the time was not yet me, and that delay and more drill- g were necessary. One example of his prudence is own in the fortification of Dor- ester Heights. While from Somer- lle, Roxbury and East Cambridge me the boom of cannon fit was not . attack upon the enemy as such, the al purpose of it was to conceal the ovement of his troopsj Washington ,vanced and the next morning the ritish beheld the familiar hilltop rmounted with frowning guns and .sy troops. With the prudence of is one stroke, the whole of New igland was freed from the enemy. lis is but one of the many incidents at could be cited. In private life as well as in that of soldier, we Americans can look up Washington as a perfect model. lr statesmen would do well to imi- Le him in the discharge of their du- is. As a statesman he was upright, nest and truthful. He had a keen sight into the future, and his firm 1st in God guided him through the portant affairs of the then infant intry. Washington is dead, but he still es on and will continue to do so as lg as the world lasts. Providence Ls watching over the destinies of r fair land and He chose this val- it soldier, this courageous states- in, this loyal American, this true lristian to be its head. Father of r country, lead on! Thy loyal sons nk up to thee- First in war, first peace, and first in the hearts of ur countrymen. -Robert Boyle, '23, Washington The leader of this gallant band Has set our country free, So on this day a grateful land Sends up its thanks to thee. Although your body rests in peace In old Mount Vernon's shrine, Our love of you will still increase And be almost divine. .We shan't forget the deeds so high You did to free our land, Deeds which seemed inspired by Our God Almighty's hand. The dove of peace has spread its wings -The nation's wars are done, And praise, this mightly land now sings Cf General Washington. -Edmund Bfresnahan, '23.

Central Catholic High School in the City of Fort Wayne 1 Before touching on the subject of a. Central Catholic High School let us consider the reasons for having any: high school at all. These reasons are' many. There is a demand all over the country for highly trained minds.. Give 'us a college man, is the cry.j The first step toward a college edu-1 cation is the high school. The far-A sighted men of the world realizes, many needs for a higher educationalN system of the greatest merit. Unfor- tunately, however, there are still: some people who retain the idea thatan what knowledge they may obtain inf the grammar grades is sufficient for a successful career in the world. This is not so. Twenty or thirty years ago it was true that few had the op- portunity of going to high school andi' consequently what practically no one had was not needed. But now, with the wheel of progress turning rap- idly and so many positions of high importance being created as a resuli of the war, the demand is greater than ever. 2 It follows then that the student: are all anxious to fit themselves foi a race with other competitors. . J p THE ECHO 7 At this moment there is a great problem, possibly one that over- shadows in importance all that have presented themselves to the Catholic world. What isthis problem that seems of such importance regarding its ef- fect on Catholics? It is this: Should Catholic parents send their sons and daughters' to a high school where practically no re- ligion is taught, and where the name of God is rarely pronounced except as a curse? It is indeed a problem. There is, however, a solution. It is an answer that should be the ad- vancement of many Catholic youths. The answer to the enigma is the Cen- tral Catholic High School. It is a school owned by Catholics, supported by them, and taught by Catholic in- structors. There are in most cases persons who unite to oppose any good cause. Opponents of the Central Catholic High School say: It's all very well for cities of about two' hundred thou- sand people or more to maintain such high schools, but what about a city like our own, Fort Wayne? This is precisely the subject with which I wish to deal. What objec- tion can be made? People say: St. Patrick's or the Cathedral or any of the other parishes is not large enough to support a high school. No, certainly not, but if the re- sources of each parish were added to that of the others could the object in View not be attained? It is consoli- dation that brings success. Benjamin Franklin, one of the World's greatest statesmen, said re- garding America's struggle for free- dom from England: United we stand, divided we fall. This may well be applied to our own case. If Catholics from all the parishes unite all can be done, if not, nothing is ac- complished. g Well, says some one not yet con- vinced, what benefits would be de- rived ? C This is answered in another ques- tion: What benefits would not be derived ? Certainly no one can say it would not be a good thing. The school would benefit the Church. The time is fast approach- ing when sentiment against the church will rise to such a degree that she will require staunch defenders- men who in their learning and by their influence can turn the current of public opinion in her favor. If we turn back some thousand years or more through the pages of history, yes even to the very begin- ning of the Church, we find that she was assailed by enemies. Who defended her? Who was it that changed the fixed ideas of ob- stinate emperors in her favor? Who demonstrated to the world the empti- ness of Paganism? Was it not learned men-men who had spent years in the study of Christ's doctrine? How was that great apologist, Tertullian, won over from being a lawyer to the cause of Christianity? It was by the study of the various teachings of the age. And so it goes on down the' centuries even to the present time. Men who studied, spent their time in the schools of their age were the Church's defend- ers. This is indeed one of the most im- portant reasons for a Central Cath- olic'High School. U When the world is filled with great 3 THE ECHO r Catholic doctors, lawyers, and other professional men it adds in a great measure to the prestige of the Church. People will not then point their fingers at her sons and refer to them as Hhewers of wood and draw- ers of waterf' Again the dissenters say: But could such a school be supported ? The answer is very positive: Cer- tainly it could be supported. While a single parish could not maintain it or while two parishes could not do so, it is beyond the shadow of a doubt as to whether or not all the parishes could successfully operate such an in- stitution. It is very necessary that the old parish traditions be broken off in or- der to accomplish anything. .This ap- plies not only to a high school but to a hospital, orphanage, or other insti- tution of like character. When a union is finally effected be- tween the various congregations there are no difficulties which they can not surmount. The school will be a success, it will be a benefit to any one attending it because of its solid foundation, the resources of the entire Catholic population of the city. I imagine now that every one is fully convinced that our Central Catholic High School is a success. Some may still ask what advantages the boy himself would obtain from attending this school. They say that the public high school is a good one, free, etc. Well, in the first place he would be among strangers. If he had attended a Catholic school he would feel lone- some. Here is a case that brings for- ward the advantages of a Central Catholic High Scnool. Let us 'suppose that there are four high schools in the city. A child is graduated from a parochial school, his parents decide to-send him to one of the four schools, while his class- mates all attend a different school. He has no old friends at his school and soon loses interest in his work and he is of consequence a failure. Now at a Central school he will be among friends unless his companions attend no school at all. There is one point which I think I have failed to mention in my catalog of advantages at a Central Catholic High School. This point is athletics. The union of all the students and the talent from various places tend to in- crease the number of athletes in a school. All her teams will be -a suc- cess. These successes in turn will in- crease the number of the schoo1's patrons. - Thus she grows in size and popularity. A fitting example of this is Center College of Danville, Ky. Center was a small school of about two hundred students. Like her' larger sisters she had a football team. The team was a good one and grad- ually by its triumphs over its neigh- bors the team attracted the attention of larger schools. They scheduled games with Center and usually the Kentuckians won. Its greatest victory was over Har- vard University in the East. This brought Center into the limelight and already men who are desirous of gridiron fame as well as hungry for learning are enrolling for next term. I hope that these few words will sum up the many and varied advan- tages of a Central Catholic High School in Fort Wayne. -Richard Ori, ,25. p THE ECHO 9 Sunset Veiled in splendor the sun goes down, Cloudlets its face unfold, Scattered along on the western ridge, Are patches of crimson and gold. Slowly the lingering light of the west Pales in the evening sky, Silently down in the valley below, The shadows gather and die. Never did monarch go to his rest In splendor half so great, Never did king on his palace throne Enjoy such regal state As that which followed the evening sun In crimson, gold and red, And played for a while like a happy smile, Around its cloud-kissed bed. -Paul Tierney, '25. The Sting of Conscience It was the work of imagination. But oh, how terrible the results! What reason was there to believe that a sunbonnet, idly thrown among rushes growing beside a lake, was an indication of suicide? The fear that he would have to be the one to break the awful news kept a would-be lover for days from visiting the little home among the hills. Yet he came nightly to watch for the untroubled water to vomit forth upon the glistening sand, a victim which it did not possess. Will had often heard it said that after nine days bodies are cast upon the shore, but he had now watched days and days overtime, without the de- sired result. Heavy-hearted and utterly down- cast, he made up his mind to call at the home of his friend. He tried his best to assume a cheerful counte- nance, and, thinking he had succeeded well enough, appeared at the door of the cottage. He paused a moment. There was not a sound. He rapped and the rap reverloerated through the empty rooms. He tried to enter, but the door was locked. More depressed, he made his way homeward. All this time he had said nothing about his trouble at home, although the family had not seen anything of Helen for weeks. Will's nightly dis- appearance began to cause suspicion. Once more he made his way to the water's edge, and this time his mother cautiously followed him. She saw him as he scanned the purple waste and the bleeched shores. She watched him as he picked up some- thing mysterious and press it to his lips. What could it be? He turned round and walked back, while his mother hid herself behind a weeping willow. Suddenly he paused and again faced the lake. Some new im- pulse had seized him-he threw off his cap and was pulling off his coat, when a gentle voice broke in upon the stillness. . A pleasant time we've had these past three weeks. Yes, indeed. I am sorry they are over. I could live in Leland forever. I wonder how Will is, I did not tell him we were going away, but I suppose he has found out by this time. At the sound of his name, Will came out of his lethargy. He drew his coat around him again, and start- ed up the trail in the direction of the voices. He recognized, them and longed to run and meet his friends, but the awful deed he was about to perpetrate would not allow him to face them. He dropped behind a large stone and lay still as Helen and her mother passed. All this time Will's mother, half unconscious from the strain, watched him. He rose to 10 THE his feet when the passing couple were out of sight and slowly made his way homeward. He had walked but a few yards when he heard someone calling him. Was it his mother's voice? Yes, it was the last word she was able to ut- ter. He heard a crackling among the bushes, as if someone was falling. He hurried to her, and leaning over her prostrate form, tried his best to re- store her to consciousness. Soon his mother recovered, Helen found her bonnet, but Will felt the sting of conscience. -Albert Schoenle, 223. The Sanity of Hamlet If we consider the play of Hamlet as a whole, Hamlet is certainly sane, for a play whose protagonist is in- sane would be a farce and no drama at all. Shakespeare never intended that Hamlet should be insane or he would never have given him such a positively sane role to perform. Ham- let's schemes, though lacking in res- olution, never lack reason. He could do nothing except when under some strange passion or impulse, but we can not draw from this that he was demented, for we know that after the mind has been stretched beyond its usual pitch, it must either sink into exhaustion or seek relief by change. The king has sent for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to ind out the cause of Hamlet's madness, and Ham- let hearing this, was at once aroused. He was both weak and dispirited be- fore, and the terror which the sight of the ghost had left upon his senses unhinged his mind, which was a per- turbated one. As I said before, no play is possible with a mad man for the principal character, and moreover if we could ECHO conceive of such a play who would care to see or take any interest in it. Those persons who object that in Shakespeare's King Lear the hero is a mad man, must draw the line be- tween the name of the play and the principal character. This play was named in honor of the king but the principal character is the heroine, Cordelia. Hamlet's violent insanity was a pretended one. He purposely plays the wild man and tells Horatio Cwho is his bosom friendb of his doing so, when he addresses Horatio in the words: As I perchance hereafter shall think meet to put on an antic disposition, that you at such times seeing me never shall with arms en- cumbered thus, or this head shake or by pronouncing some doubtful phrases, fetc .... To prove to himself that he was correct in his judgment, Hamlet wait- ed a while before killing the king in order not to be guilty of any mean, act. After Polonious was informed of Hamlet's madness he said: Though this be madness, yet there is method in it. From Hamlet himself, we have abundant proof of his sanity in his advice to the players where he says, Speak you the speech I pray you as I pronounce it to you, etc. The words To be or not to be show mental balance in his sympathy for the oppressed and his contempt for the avaricious. The conversation of Hamlet with Polonious was not insane. In his speech Hamlet was sarcastic and Po- lonious, a man of rank, should have protected him. Hamlet in his con- versation with Horatio told him what he thought of his person, and Ham- let was pleased at the words of Ho- s 'li J r I x l l THE ECHO 11 ratio: Give me that man that is not a little infected but not completely de- assion's slave, etc. Hamlet only talked madness, 'hereas Ophelia, who is really mad, oth speaks and acts madness. Ham- ft never says why he is mad, whereas fphelia tells why she is mad, and :Jes things that Hamlet would never iink of doing. Again when Ophelia , dead, Hamlet shows perfect sanity. Madmen are not responsible for ieir actions and therefore are not unished. Shakespeare punishes iamlet with death, therefore must ave meant Hamlet to be only as- iming madness. If we deprive iamlet of reason, there is no truly ?agic motive left, and if Hamlet is responsible, the whole play is a iaos. -Thomas M oKvlerncm, '23, . The Insanity of Hamlet In insanity or madness the subject . either wholly paralyzed or else lore or less subject to fits of paraly- s. The madman is said not to be imself, but beside himself. Here is case where a man is not himself, ut where he is certainly beside him- elf, and since he is beside himself, may be safe to class him as a mad- ian. Hamlet was beside himself when 1e ghost left him, as we plainly see y his speech when he is by himself. fe was most certainly not a man of Jurage, for he became greatly ter- ified at the apparition. Hamlet in his sane moments admits is partial madness, and to prove that e is right we need only recall the day lat Ophelia was sewing in her room, 'hen Hamlet entered, wearing a pale ace, grasped her by the wrist and earned piteously. The insanity of Hamlet was a case f dejected madness. His mind was stroyed. Hamlet's words: I have of late but wherefore I know not, etc., shows his to be a case of dej ected madness. Hamlet was in a state of frenzy when he killed Polonious in the king's stead, he thought that the king was sneaking behind the arras. This does not justify in the least Hamlet's sudden change of resolution, for just a few moments previous he resolved not to kill the king. By this instant lapse of self-control Hamlet has lost his lead in the game, and has given the king a great advantage over him. Hamlet would never have given the king this advantage if he was in full possession of his senses. It is natural for insane persons to fix upon one individual and tease him by every means their minds can con- ceive of. Hamlet does this to Polo- nius. Moreover, if Hamlet is sane, why does he take an instant resolu- tion to act insane? If Shakespeare wants to make his hero a sane man why does he put the words of an in- sane person in Hamlet's mouth? We must admit that Hamlet is insane or else his words are false, for he dis- tinctly says: By my fay I can not reason yet . . . see how I can discourse. Hamlet's assumed madness does not help him onward at all, it rather hinders him, the natural effect of his conduct being to arouse suspicions in the king's mind, to put him on the alert, and to make him guard himself with redoubled vigilance. Therefore we conclude it would be bad judg- ment on the part of Hamlet to feign madness and hence: The only possi- ble solution of the play is to say that Hamlet is mad. -Edward J. Kdllmyer, 123. 12 THE ECHO PASTORAL LETTER EXPLAINS FUNCTIONS OF STATE IN EDUCATION S THE public welfare is largely de- pendent upon the intelligence of the citizen, the state has a vital concern in education. This is implied in the orig- inal purpose of our government which, as set forth in the preamble of the Constitu- tion, is to form a more perfect union, es- tablish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the bless- ings of liberty to ourselves and our pos- terity. In accordance with the purposes, the state has a right to insist that its citizens be educated. It should encourage among the people such a love of learning that they will take the initiative and, Without con- straint, provide for the education of their children. Should they through negligence or lack of means fail to do so, the state has the right to establish schools and take ev- ery other legitimate means to safeguard its vital interests against the dangers that re- sult from ignorance. In particular, it has both the right and the duty to exclude the teachings of doctrines which aim at the sub- version of law and order and therefore at the destruction of the state itself. The state is competent to do these things because its essential function is to promote the general welfare. But on the same prin- ciple it is bound to respect and protect the rights of the citizen and especially of the parent. So long as these rights are prop- erly exercised, to encroach upon them is not to further the general welfare, but to put it in peril. If the function of the government is to protect the liberty of the citizen, and if the aim of education is to prepare the individual for the rational use of his lib- erty, the state can not rightfully or consist- ently make education a pretext for inter- fering with rights and liberties which the Creator, not the state, has conferred. Any advantage that might accrue even from a perfect system of state education would be more than offset by the wrong which the violation of parental rights would involve. In our country, government thus far has wisely refrained from placing any other than absolutely necessary restrictions upon private initiative. The result is seen in the development of our resources, the products of inventive genius and the magnitude of our enterprises. But our most valuable re- sources are the minds of our children, and for their development at least the same scope should be .allowed to individual effort as is secured to our undertakings in the material order. The spirit of our people in general is ad- verse to state monopoly, and this for the obvious reason that such an absorption of the end of freedom same consequence is the state attempts to control would mean and initiative. The sure to follow when monopolize education, and the disaster will as it will affect, not be greater inasmuch simply the worldly interests of the citizen, i but also his spiritual growth and salvation. i With great wisdom our American Con- stitution provides that every citizen shalll be free to follow the disctates of his con- 1, science in the matter of religious belief and l observance. While the state gives no pref- erence or advantage to any form of reli- .1 gion, its own best interests require that re- I ligion as well as education should flourish and exert its wholesome iniiuence upon the lives of the people. And since education, is so powerful an agency for the preserva- tion of religion, equal freedom should be se- cured to both. This is the more needfull where the state refuses religious instruc-.A tion any place in its schools. To compelw the attendance of all children at these- schools would be practically equivalent tof an invasion of the rights of conscience in respect of those parents who believe that? religion forms a necessary part of educa-I tion. Our Catholic schools are not established' and maintained with any idea of holding. our children apart from the general body' and spirit of American citizenship. They, are simply the concrete form in which we exercise our rights as free citizens in con-f formity with the dictates of conscience. Their very existence is a great moral fact in American life. For while they aiml. openly and avowedly to preserve our Cath-I olic faith, they offer to allhour people anv example of the use of freedom for the ad-+ vancement of morality and religion. - -The National Catholic Welfare Council Bulletin. i THE ECHO 13 The Phantom Light It was a cold and dreary November ght, and the trees afforded but little 'otection from the wind to- the muses about Snug Inn Harbor. The ily lights that were in view were the ight, steady one shining over the arbor from the lighthouse, and a int, flickering one which issued om one of the portholes of the reck Skidadler, which lay on the ioals bordering Devil's Island. The reck had lain there three weeks, and 1 salvaging company considered it aworthy enough to float. John and Andy Putman, looking it of the window of their home, won- ered why a light burned nightly in 1 old abandoned wreck. Let's ex- ore the wreck tomorrow, said mhn. The sun came up bright as ever ext morning, and after eating a aarty breakfast and packing a sup- .y of sandwiches, John and Andy set it for the dock where their motor Jat was moored. A half-hour's run rought them alongside the wreck. he stern was the only part in water, ie bow rested on the beach. They se- ired their boat to a ring, and ind- ig an old rope ladder dangling from ie deck, they climbed aboard. One last had been swept away, but two till stood as proudly as they ever did 'hen they were kings of the forest. he sails had been ripped from their astenings, and a tangled, twisted lass of rope lay strewn over the eck. . After exploring the upper deck, hey went below. A door half open onfronted them. Let's see what's n here, Andy, whispered John. The room they entered had for- gerly been the captain's cabin, but Verything was in disorder, and a shattered mirror hung upon the wall. A thorough search of the ship had re- vealed nothing. What do you say if we go fishing this afternoon, and come back here tonight to see if we can't solve the mystery of the light then. Maybe the fellow that might stay here is out now, said Andy. It was just drawing dusk when they came back to the wreck, and fas- tening their boat once more, they climbed aboard. Going below, they entered the captain's cabin and wait- ed. All was distressingly quiet ex- cept the swish of the water against the bow. After a long half-hour, Andy re- marked: Let's go home g it's getting late, and the light should have been here an hour ago. They came on deck and descended the ladder to their boat. They hadn't gone far when John yelled, There's the light again. Let's speed up this boat. Wait a minute, cried Andy, 'fl think I've got it. I bet that the light from the lighthouse shines on that mirror in the captain's cabin and is reflected out on the water. -Donald Vordermarlc, 223. The Voice of Snow When once it speaks-I tell you so- There is no preacher like the snow, When flake by flake, on lightsome wings, Comes softly falling down and brings A mantle broad to spread below And robe Our Mother Earth, and show That it can hide all ugly things, When once it speaks. It's voice cries aloud: Forgive your foe- We all have things we must forego- And help conceal the fault that Hings ' Contentment from the minds of kings, And to the snow your ear bestow When once it speaks? -A Sclzeffle, '20 14 THE Julius Caesar in History and Drama Shakespeare's chief aim in writing the drama Julius Caesar was to produce an interesting and attractive drama, and not to teach history as such. Hence he wisely took such lib- erties with historical facts as his purpose required, expanding or con- densing the actual time between events into that which suited his own narration, reducing and idealizing characters as the laws of contrast or the dictates of historic art demanded. 'Julius Caesar is the shortest of the historical plays, and has the best Roman lagging action. nearest wrought plot of any of the plays. The author allows no of interest throughout the The style in this play is the perfection we find in any of the his- torical productions of Shakespeare. Plutarch's Lives of Brutus and An- tony in the translation of North were undoubtedly the chief authorities used by Shakespeare. It is probable however that the author also made use of historical matter received sec- ond hand and from questionable sources. Only the later incidents in the life of Caesar are made use of, and these are placed as the closing scenes in his life. Caesar enters but three times, and the action of the piece is extended more than as much again after his assassination. It is Caesar's fate and fortune that gives commencement to the action, and his influence that carries the play to the finish. Probably the most notable digres- sion from historical truth in the whole play is the reduction of the character of Caesar, who is made to appear to be a weakling, while on the' other hand there is a corresponding exaltation of Brutus. By exalting Brutus and painting Caesar first as ECHO H a weakling and then as an ambitious tyrant, Shakespeare has falsified his- tory. Brutus is not only shown to be a finished character, an exalted char- acter, by the poet, but he is made to appear to be a closer friend of Caesar than he really was. Caesar's triumph in the first scene takes place on the day of the festival of the Lupercal, February 15, 445 whereas in history the triumph oc- curred six months before, or in Oc- tober 45 B. C. Shakespeare makes the assassina- tion, the funeral oration, and the ar- rival of Octavius in the city, take place the same day 5 Plutarch says that the speech of Brutus was given the morning after the murder, and the speech of Antony two days later. Octavius was at school in Illyria when he heard of Caesar's death, and consequently could not be present the day of Caesar's assassination. His- tory tells us that Octavius did not ar- rive until a month later. He arrived in May, 44 B. C. ' In Shakespeare, Caesar was killed in the Capitol 5 in Plutarch the mur- der occurred some distance from the Capitol. History informs us that Caesar was murdered in the Senate- House. The meeting place of the triumvirs is also questioned and changed by the author of the play. According to Shakespeare, the triumvirs met in Rome, while according to Plutarch, their meeting place was in the city of Bolonia. Shakespeare merges two battles in- to one. The second Battle of Philippi occurred twenty days after the first battle of the same name, yet Shakes- peare has but one Battle of Philippi with the action of the two combinedf The actual period of history cover-4 's 3 i if L l l THE ECHO 15 ed by the events used in the drama is a period of three and a half years, whereas Shakespeare condenses the action into six days. The speech of Antony goes way be- yond the facts laid down by Plutarch, but it is possible that Shakespeare used other material derived through various channels, and perhaps of very little historic value. Shakespeare surely was not ignor- ant of the greatness of Julius Caesar as an historic character and yet he seems to make it a necessity to belit- tle the greatness of the man. He in- sists on his weakness, physical and mental, and yet makes the character influence the entire play. Shakespeare has drawn on imag- ination rather than on the history of Rome for the perfection of some of his foremost characters. Brutus, Cassius, Antony, and Portia are his- torical in person but embellished by the author with virtues and powers ungrounded in history. There are multitudes of minor de- tails where Shakespeare departs from history, but on a whole, the drama gives a good idea of life in Rome at that remote period.-A. Schoenle, 23. The Catholic Mother In this world there is no greater person- age than a good Catholic mother. Nature endows her with many gifts from the hands of her creator, the meekness and patience, the humility, modesty and faith which she shares with the ideal woman, make her a model of all that is noblest and best in life. Some one has said: The virtues of a na- tion's women are an index to the nation's vi- tality. How true! Thank God for our Catholic mothers, thank God for our countless Catholic chil- dren. Poor many of them may begin this world's goods, but rich, yes, showered with all the purest gold of God's best gifts to man--the sweet simple love and faith of Catholic hearts and homes.-Selected. ,A Catholic Home Bishop Kelley, in a recent pastoral letter, describes a true Catholic home. How comparatively few are the Cath- olic homes that correspond to his de- scriptionl He says: What makes a home a Catholic one? It is not merely the fact that all are Catholics, because, unfortunately, there are homes where only Catholics are found, and very decidedly they are not Catholic homes. I should expect to find in a Catholic home these things: Catholic pictures of the Sa- cred Heart, our Blessed Lady, and some of the saints, Catholic papers and books on the table, showing evidence that they are read, conversation on Catholic topics at table and in the living room, rosaries and scapulars worn by all, attendance at Sunday mass, frequent approach to the sacraments. A peep in the nursery would find the little chil- dren at mother's knees saying their little night and morning prayers, night and morning prayers reverently said by all, the sound of the Angelus bell recognized, a firm conviction on the part of all the children that they had the best mother and the best home in the world, manly boys, and wom- anly girls, all desiring to help mother in any way they could, a loving deference to the words of father and mother, and a happy union in the family life. ,i An education that unites intel- lectual, moral, and religious elements is the best training for citizenship. It inculcates a sense of responsibility, a respect for authority and a consider- ateness for the rights of others, which are the necessary foundations of civic virtue-more necessary where, as in a democracy, the citizens enjoy a larger freedom, has a greater obligation to govern himself. We are convinced that, as religion and mor- ality are essential to the right living and to the public welfare, both should be included in the work of education. -Pastoral Letter of the Hlierarclzy, 1920. 16 THE ECHO i ff I x , 'Wk li l 'II IA !

Our Flag To many the recurrence of Wash- ington's birthday means no more than the day setf aside for the unfurling of a new Hag and singing the first stanza of a patriotic anthem. To us as Catholics it means far more. On this day We are reminded of the very signiiicance of the flag. Our Holy Mother, the Church, say: Your flag was lout a loit of painted cloth until it was made to stand for a great real- ity, for liberty under the' law, for stories of patience and courage in war, deeds of honor and matchless devotion in peace, for hospitality to the oppressed of every land, the full- est material Well-loeing, the highest intellectual genius, the largest tolera- tion, universal manhood suffrage, and honest zeal for peace among nations and an amazing enthusiasm for the THE ECHO . 17 education of youth. This is the Catholic version of the red of bravery, the white of purity and the blue of truth. -Joseph Clijjiord, '23, On the Level I consider every recitation a spe- cial appointment with a teacher. I would no sooner miss such an ap- pointment than I would miss a spe- cial appointment with a big business man from whom I expected to secure a good position, writes a pupil of the Northern High School, Detroit. If you have been missing some classes, and you're incredulous as to the added interest and profit that regular attendance Will give you, try it. I am sure that your incredulity will be turned to amazement. If you have been tardy in the morning or at noon, make it a point to be on time. If you must be out of school have your parents use the telephone and call the Brothers before school starts. Don't wait for the prefect to call your number. Nothing is more annoying than for the prefect to stand at the phone and get the answer line is busy and then after waiting a half hour succeed in getting the number and hear the words, I was expecting you to call. I knew you would call. I was waiting for you to call. The burden of the call should rest on you, and when you are out without excus- ing yourself before class starts the presumption is that you are skiving. Help the Brothers' efficiency by do- ing your part. -Thomas M cKfiermm, 223. Food for Thought The recent reception of twenty young men into the Brotherhood of Holy Cross and the religious profes- sion of an old alumnus in the same community, gives rise to food for se- rious thought. These young men have consecrated their lives to the apostolate of Catholic education in the high school, a work not only vitally important but absolutely necessary at the present time. Daily the cry becomes more and more insistent: We want Catholic leadership among the laity. A cry that is uttered by the entire hierarchy ofthe country. But Catholic leaders can be developed through Catholic education alone. If we are to have leaders who can break down prejudice, diffuse knowledge and insure justice we must, have Catholic high schools in which such men may receive a very important part of their education. But outside of our large centers of population a Catholic High School for boys is a practical impossibility unless there can be found hundreds of young men imbued with the desire to consecrate their lives and efforts to the work of the teaching orders. The rapid de- velopment of high schools gives rise to a demand for teachers which un- fortunately far exceeds the supply. This deficit is undoubtedly due in part at least to the fact that many con- sider the life of the teaching brother too great a sacrifice. But Lent is a time of sacrifice and let us remember that no sacrifice is too great when the making of it insures the growth of our church, the good of our country, the saving of souls and the glory of God. Our teaching brotherhoods need young men and boys who are willing to consecrate their lives to Godin the apostolate of education and to bring to the work of that apostolate all the powers of body, the strength of their mind and the affec- tions of their hearts. J. G. K. 18 e THE ECHO Sound Sense ln order to fully accomplish its aims, the school must have the co-op- eration of the home. If parents are to allow their sons to neglect their home assignments or to come late for class, the school can not give those boys the proper training. The ave- rage student can not attend week- day parties or dances and do good work in school. Therefore parents should use their influence to see that these affairs be confined to Friday and Saturday nights. Such were the words of the principal of the C. C. H. S. of Toledo, Ohio, in an address to the parents assembled during the early part of January. What applies to high school students in Toledo is equally applicable to boys in Fort Wayne. The trouble is that the average city boy unrestrained by parental author- ity would become too much of a so- cial lion and forget all about the life of the bookworm. A good example of the point in question occurred re- cently when a senior of social-lion- istic propensities thought that he was being imposed upon by being asked to study more than one hour out of twenty-four hours five days a week. His attention was drawn to several boarding schools where the high school pupils have from three to four and a half hours of supervised study seven days of theweek. The case of five hundred and fifty college students at the University of Notre Dame who-unable to find lodging on the campus and of necessity room- ing in South Bend-by vote made the rule and provided all the necessary means of enforcing it, that no stu- dent be permitted to be out of his room after seven-thirty o'clock more than twice a week, was brought to his attention, and he said: I guess you would like to make a university out of this. If in other places students have to study from three to five hours, sure- ly our boys have no just reason for complaint when we ask them to take three or four books home and request the boys to study from two to three hours each night, when we remember that we have less than one hour of supervised study in school. The plea that others do not study is no argument. While it may be true that in certain neighborhoods basketball, bob-parties, dances and the like have entirely superceded studies, I know positively that the best students we have are studying from three to four hours at set times every day. These same boys make it a point to get to school before eight o'clock every morning in ,order to take advantage of the optional half hour of supervised study before class- es take up. It might not be amiss to point out here that this half hour of study would be made obligatory ex- cept for the fact that it is the desire of the faculty to give the boys every possible chance to attend Mass and Receive Holy Communion daily if possible. At present, attendance at Mass on Wednesday morning is all that is obligatory, but we can not too strongly encourage the practice of daily attendance at Mass and that es- pecially during the holy season of Lent. l A. F. M. We impart to the smallest acts the highest virtue when we perform them with a sincere wish to please God. The merit of our actions does not depend on their importance. - St. Francis de Sales.

Gamel, of Vinton, Iowa, lationally known as a counsellor of boys, lecturer, and author of books tor boys, visited our school a short pime ago and gave us a wonderful ecture on what he called The Way to Win. Mr. Gamel was brought to murcity by the Rotary Club, , and .hrough the arrangements perfected Jy the Rev. A. E. Lafontaine, our be- oved superintendent of schools, the noted boy counsellor visited our school md addressed the faculty and stu- lent body. Father Lafontaine pre- sided, happily introducing the speak- er, and after his lecture expressed great satisfaction, inviting Mr. Zamelto again visit our school. The Rotary Club was also congratulated Jn having engaged so gifted a lec- Lurer. ----- The address was one of the ablest ever given by a layman in the C. C. H. S. Mr. Gamel is enthusiasttic over the American boy and his suc- cess, reaching him through high schools, scout organizations and through parents. In treating of man- hood he said he Wanted us to be the biggest, the best and the finest men, I whose aim should b to make others happy. Around the little word Work he entwined a magic thrill that was con- tagious. Alluding to idleness and the evils growing out of it, he indicated that the habitually idle man is a thief since he robs the world of that serv- ice which it is his duty to render. As to the question of undesirable citizens he showed that the man who could, but would not work, is the most undesirable. He indicated that the uso-called leisure class is a menace to the world, and as an ex- ample referred to conditions in Eu- rope, showing also that unfortunately in America there. are people of that kind. 5 A boy's faculties were compared to the parts of a locomotive, each with certain duties to perform. The dis- tinction, however, was made that while the engine is a product of hu- man ingenuity, the boy is created by Almighty God and possesses a soul and body. He declared that a boy fulfills his duties in this world only insofar as he uses all his faculties properly and once he misuses them, like an engine that runs wild and is derailed and perhaps destroyed, so he too is in -danger of disaster. Selections were given by the school orchestra and Mr. Gamel was enthu- siastically cheered. -Clarence Fields, 'Q:2. Fre-shmen Given Essay Awards The Freshmen Essay Contest, in- augurated in our school at the open- ing of the scholasttic year by the Rev. Thomas M. Conroy, rector of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Con- ception, formally closed at Christmas. Results were announced during the last period on Tuesday morning, Jan- 20 THE -ul ' l uary the third, when Father Conroy visited the school and delivered an eloquent address before the faculty and students. An award of S510 had been prom- ised as a prize for the winner of the essay contest. According to the con- ditions laid down, the length of the paper was to be 1,200 words, the time in which to write the essay would expire at Christmas and neat- ness would be a factor in the judging of the manuscripts. The subject matter was to be The necessity of, and the reasons for a Central Cath- olic High School in the city of Fort Wayne. The contest brought about consid- erable rivalry in the Freshman Eng- lish Classes. Many aspired for the honors, practically half the members of the class contending until within a few days of the close of the con- test. The length of the essay was bailing to some of the number so that in the final count eleven were ECHO contending for victory. The five judges for the contestf met on New Year's afternoon, when the manuscripts were carefully read,-I discussed and percentages given., Unanimously the first place and ac-E cordingly the prize of 9510 was award-f ed Richard Orff, fifteen-year-old son, of Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Gusching, of' 641 Huffman street. He is a memberl of the Precious Blood Church and re-'W ceived his grade training under the direction of the Sisters of the Most Precious Blood. By a peculiar coin- cidence Richard was celebrating his flfteenth birthday and receeiving presents at home at the very hours the judges unawares-the manu-1 scripts bore no names on them- awarded him the first place. , Since other essays showed so much. merit, Father Conroy decided to givef two additional awards, 35.00 for thei winner of the second place and 32.50-1 for third place. The second honors if went to Jennings Streifuss, son of W Mr. and Mrs. Joseph A. Streeifuss,iq 125 East Main street, and a memberin of the Cathedral of the Immaculate! Conception. Third honors were: given Donald Mulhaupt, son of Mr and Mrs. William E. Mulhaupt, 320 East Woodland avenue, and a stu dent from St. Patrick's parish. An essay most favorably consider ed was that of James Roy, of the Ca thedral parish. The arguments were well organized, but numbering only 700 words, conditions governing th contest were not fulfilled. He wa given sixth place among the contest al l 'Ji l '! i 4 e l Q?

We regret to say that in the story 1 the Indiana Catholic and the ar- cles in the three local daily papers, ie name of the Winner of seventh lace was given as Robert Franke, 'hereas the essay should have been redited to his younger brother, Ste- han. A mistake occurred in num- ering the papers so as to conceal ames from the judges, and conse- uently the mistake in giving the evvs to the reporters. Father Conroyis Address Father Conroy, in his address, an- ounced that the essay contest will e an annual affair, that three Wards Will be given, but that in- :ead of at Christmas the contest Will lose at the end of the scholastic year. Ionors Will be conferred at com- iencement time. Besides t h e Wards for the Freshmen, Father Ionroy Will also give the Junior elo- ution gold medal. This was former- y' given by the late rector of the Ca- redral of the Immaculate Conception, he Rev. John R. Quinlan, but out of espect to his memory was not given ist June. Its presentation, however, vill be resumed by the rector in June, 922. In his half hour's address to the Preshmen, Father Conroy treated mrimarily of the essay contest, con- gratulating the students on their Work and emphasizing the benefit de- rived by the contests, though not all Were prize Winners. The essay to be proposed next will be shorter. The essay Winning first place was read by Richard Orff, the Writer. Father Conroy carefully explained its merits. In turn he spoke of each essay, cover- ing the eleven on the list, enumerat- ing their good qualities and pointing out defects. He indicated that the students were attending a school of which they had every reason to be proud, and encouraged them in their activities. Discussing the development of great orators, Father Conroy alluded to the old-time country school debate and showed that debating Work Was Worthy of being encouraged. Plans are under Way at the C. C. H. S. for a debate in the spring, though no def- inite program has as yet been ar- ranged. Father Conroy paid our Echo a very high tribute by saying it far surpasses the regular high school publication and is in line with college quarterlies. The students Were highly enthusi- astic over the morning meeting, cheering Father Conroy, the success- ful essayists and the faculty. i -Albert Schoenle, 223.

S. C., of No- tre Dame, assistant general in the con- gregation of Holy Cross, paid us a 5 visit on January -'yi 30th and started a course of four lectures on Julius Caesar. These lectures were given for the Sophomores, Juniors and Sen- iors, and during the course the play was read and explained by Brother Florentius, who is a dramatic reader of considerable ability. Two addresses on Religion in Ed- ucation were also given by the vis- iting educator, the first to the Jun- iors and Seniors, and the second, somewhat modified, for the Fresh- men and Sophomores. Brother Florentius' discourses, no matter on what subject, are always real treats and we regret that we can not give him more space here. Suflice it to say, however, that those who heard him have a deep appreci- ation of his life work and a keen realization of the necessity of. more Catholic leaders of his type. We thank the good brother for his interest in us and our work a.nd we assure him that his visits can not be too frequent to be welcome. On Friday afternoon, February 3, Brother Florentius gave an illus- trated lecture on Lew Wallace's fa- mous story of Ben Hur. One hun- dred and fifty slides, many of them reproductions of masterpieces, which Brother has spent fifteen years care- fully collecting, were thrown on the screen. Ben Hur -with the spir- itual element emphasized-as the epitome of an illustrated lecture has proven especially popular and Bro- ther Florentius has given it more than 150 times, including six dra- matic readings in Fort Wayne. g While in Fort Wayne i Brother Florentius fulfilled appointments at the K. of C. Hall, St. Patrick's Ly- ceum, St. Peter's Auditorium. St. An- drew's school, St. Augustine's Acad- emy, St. Catherine's Academy. St. J oseph's Hospital, Sacred Heart Academy and the Assembly Hall of C. C. H. S., returning to many places a second and third time with Julius Caesar or with his illustrated lec- ture.

The Maryville Post is published by the boys of the Cathedral School, and is chuck full of articles on school ac- tivities, stories, verse, jokes, edito- rials and puzzles. The Echo extends a hearty welcome to the new eight- page publication and congratulates the boys on their splendid work. 1 Commenting editorially on Father Conroy, the Post says: All honor to aim. He has been with us but a few months and look at the improvements that have been made in that time, :Joth spiritual and temporal. The Holy Communions have increased a aundred fold, the heating system in Jur school has been improved, a new gym floor has been put in, a cafeteria installed, and many other things too numerous to mention. Come, boys, Let us show our appreciation, not in words, but in behavior and actions, the old adage says: Actions speak louder than words. -Willidfni L. Foohey, '22 Letter Club Organized On Tuesday evening, January the third, a meeting was held at which all the athletes who had won their letters in any line of sports were Present and formed what is to be known as the HC. C. H. S. Letter Club. Julian Koehl, president of the Senior Class, who is one of the school's foremost athletes and cap- tain of nearly all the teams in the past three years, was elected presi- dent. Thomas McKiernan, '23, this year's varsity football center, was elected vice-president, and Patrick Donahue, '23, who for the past two years was quarter-back on the varsity squad, was named secretary-treas- urer. The charter members of the club are Wayne Bushman, '24, Austin Centlivre, '23, Joseph Clifford, '23, Patrick Donahue, '23, David Eckert, '24, Charles Graf, '24, John Haley, '22, Julian Koehl, '22, Norbert Koehl, '23, Clyde Hanson, '22, Thomas McKiernan, '23, Anthony Mulligan, '25, Robert Rinehart, '23, and Robert Suelzer, '23. The primary object of the club is to encourage athletics in the school and at the same time help the athlete to be the ideal kind of student. In other words, to make the athlete a leader in class first and then a lead- er in sports, for the school wants no athlete who is not first of all a repre- sentative scholar. It is pointed out that the members of the letter club are to set th eexample of scholarship not only for the younger students but for the older ones as well. --Thomas M eK:z'ei'narn,, '23, The only one who never makes a mistake is the one who never does anything. -Theodore Rooseifelt. 24 THE ECHO , 'C g o -:zo cz I 0-4,-G U V 1 A.E.s 7 I I U -13.

We are in- debted to Aaron H. Huguenard, pres- ident of the Club, for the following article descriptive of the affair. The Banquet It is much to be regretted that we haven't a competent man of letters, who can grasp great occasions and express the greatness thereof in a convincing style. If we did have, We are sure you would appreciate far more the iirst get-together of Fort Wayne's Notre Dame men. Since We haven't, however, we'll let our jerky pen say what it Will, and hope it'll be satisfactory. December 28, 1921, was the time, Chamber of Commerce was the place. Shortly after six o'clock the fellows began to gather. We are willing to give you three guesses as to who was first there, but we know you'll say Frankie Doriot right off g so you won't need the other two. Definite infor- mation has it that the precocious lad from St. Martin street was haunting the C. of C. at 3 p. m. for fear he would be late. Well, didn't somebody say that it was better to be an hour early than a minute late? The phlegmatic reader may be in- clined to think that there is too much enthusiasm in a write-up of this kind. Regardless of him, we will say that it was an unimaginable pleasure to meet and fraternize with the former Notre Dame men.

It was a real delight to find that the Notre Dame life of those men was the same as we are now having. When Dr. Dinnen called us class- mates, when Joe Haley narrated skiving episodes of two and a half decades ago, when Judge Eggeman told us the authorities gave him a room in Sorin Hallibecause they were afraid to ask him to sleep in Brown- son, well, it's no use trying to describe our feeling. Charlie N iezer and Harry Hogan talked to us heart-to-heart about the spirit and advantages of the school and brought home many things that heretofore we didn't realize. With this feast of reason and flow of soul was served a delicious banquet, one not soon to be forgotten. We know of no better way to sum- marize the success of the affair than by repeating the words of an alum- nus: lt makes me feel twenty years younger to be back with the boys to- night. -1-1 Congratulations To our big ten at Purdue Univer- sity, to Father McCarthy, who is so enthusiastic over young men, to Mr. John J. Welch, '18, the president of the Newman Club, and to all the Catholics at Purdue University, the Echo extends its heartiest congratu- lations upon the recent organization of a Newman Club. The following explains its purpose and scope: Preamble to the Constitution Realizing the need of a Catholic organ- ization whose influence and ideals would unite the Catholics of the student body and of all departments of Purdue University into one organization for the advancement of their religious., social and intellectual interests, the Newman Club of Purdue Uni- versity was planned. ' This club was made possible through the untiring eiorts of Rev. John A. McCarthy, Professor and Mrs. R. V. Achatz, Professor and Mrs. C. B. Jordan and the LaFayette Council of the Knights of Columbus, who by their counsel and assistance greatly aided the club throughout the period of or- ganization. The name Newman was adopted as the name of the club in honor of that eminent Catholic prelate John Cardinal Newman. . Outlines of the Organization Objects-The advancement of the relig- ious, social and intellectual interests of the Catholic students. Members-Limited to the Catholic stu- dents of Purdue University and the Cath- olic members of all the departments of the above mentioned university. Officers-Consist of a President, Vice- President, Secretary, Treasurer, Chaplain and Executive Committee. By-Laws Provide That-the Club shall re- ceive Holy Communion in a body once each semester. 1i,.il.-i..11- Our Big Ten At Purdue SENIORS i Vincent P. Reilly, '18, Mechanical Engineering. John J.

And ive did it, as we do it, and we will, By the urge of uvhafs inside us, by the spirit of our clan, ' And it's something more than money pages the bill. Though we like our shares of treasure and the pleas- ure it brings, It is something else that drives us to our goal, It's the triumph of our labor over elemental things And the vision which gives splendor to the whole. We are 'members of an order that is guided on by dreams, By the voices of the prophets and the seers, And unless you care for service more than money getting schemes, You had better never join the Engineers. -Berton Braley. Engineering is the science by which the mechanical properties of matter are util- ized for the betterment of mankind. To the engineer falls the task of utilizing this mat- ter, and by the science of engineering turn this matter into the form by which man can better himself, his race, the world in which he lives. Most of us have inherited a too narrow ideal of the engineering profession. We have pictured the engineer as a purely scientific man or perhaps more general as a practical man, yet how far these are misleading, even though both be truths. The engineer is aprofessional man in every sense of the word. He renders a service to the clients for a fee, just as does the lawyer or the doctor. He is governed by the same principles of professional honor, obligations and has the same ethics as do these others. The work of an engineer covers a very broad field. VVe find him in all the fields of industry, in the shop, in the field, in the mines, toil- ing, struggling to overcome the forces of nature that stand in his pathway. It is not the glitter of gold that drives him on, oh no, for the profession of en- gineering holds not the golden spoon. Yet there is no greater reward within the gift of man than that feeling of real service. We find the engineer's ideal is for the suc- cess of the great organization of which he is a member. To him falls the task of carrying on in spite of the elemental ob- stacles that beset his pathway. ECHO To be an engineer a man must have these three qualities: 1. Leadership. Above all he must have this quality to be a great engineer. The great or master engineer is one who has such great qualities of leadership that he can control men and capital, plan and or- ganize great commercial and engineering undertakings. 2. Honesty. Nature and her forces do not tolerate mistakes, or dishonest dealings. If a bridge is improperly designed, or poor material allowed in the construction, the bridge will fall. The dishonest engineer, like the bridge, also fails. 3. Desire to Serve. Service is the pass- word in the profession of engineering. Those who forget or lose the password soon fall from the ranks of that great body of men found in every corner of the universe, The Engineers. -John J. Welch, '18. 11,,..i.i1i.i-1 I pity no man because hc has to work. If he is worth his salt, he will work. I envy the man who has a work worth doing and does it well. There never has been devised, and there never will be devised, any law which will enable a man to succeed save by the exercise of those qualities which have always been the prerequi- sites of success, the qualities of hard work, of keen intelligence, of un- flinching Will. -Theodore Roosevelt. An Educated Mind , The president of Columbia Univer- sity, at a recent college assembly, gave six tests of an educated man. Reduced to simple language, they are as follows: 1. Correctness in the use of lan- guage. 2. Refined and gentle manners. 3. Sound standards of taste. 4. The power and habit of reflec- tion. 5. Constant intellectual growth. 6. The power to translate thought into efficiency. H .

The credit for inaugurating this fund, which has become known as the Cathedral Endowment Fund, belongs to Mr. Timothy Foohey, a member of the Cathedral, whose gen- erosity has not only made the Endow- ment Fund a fact but has extended itself to many other charitable and uplifting undertakings. Impelled by a conviction that edu- cation should be placed within the reach of all and by a sense of duty to assist others to acquire as much knowledge as possible, Mr. Foohey offered the sum of three thousand dol- lars as the nucleus of a fund, the earnings from which should be used to defray the expenses involved in the education of worthy boys within the Cathedral parish. The Rt. Reverend Bishop Alerding was approached on the matter, and with his usual activ- ity and absorbing interest in the sub- ject of education at'once sensed the value of the enterprise that Mr. Foo- hey had in mind. Mr. Harry Hogan, acting as Mr. Foohey's attorney in the matter, suggested to the Rt. Rev- erend Bishop that organization of a body of trustees who should admin- ister the fund within the purposes of its founder. The Rt. Reverend Bishop and Mr. Foohey at once ap- proved of this plan of handling the monies in the fund. The Rt. Rever- end Bishop was requested to appoint the first body of trustees, ten in num- ber, who should in turn perpetuate the trusteeship by selecting members of the Cathedral parish to fill va- cancies in the board of trustees. The Rt. Reverend Bishop chose as members of the board of trustees the following well-known members of the Cathedral congregation: Harry G. Hogan, Joseph C. Hutzell, Charles M. Niezer, P.,J. Griffin, Edward Gilmar- tin, Oscar'C. Fox, Carl -Weber, Ed- ward Baltes and John O'Connor. Shortly after the meeting with the Rt. Reverend Bishop the trustees met to formulate plans of organization and methods of raising and disburs- ing funds committed to their keeping. At this meeting, which was held in' the month of July, 1921, it was de- cided that it was impossible and im- prudent to attempt a solicitation of subscriptions for the fund, on the ground that the new school year was about to open and the choosing of candidates for the benefits of the fund would demand a longer period of time. The endowment fund and its bene- fits are not charity-in fact it is in- tended that not even the implication of charity should attach to any assist- ance from the fund. The purpose of the fund is assured on account of the obviously worthy object for which it was created. It is the ambition of those interested in the fund to pro-- vide for the education beyond the high school, and in the high school, of all worthy boys in the Cathedral congregation. It is a unique way of doing a great work, and has caught the attention of educators and men interested in the problems related to education throughout the country. -TQM..

C55 N ores wg Q ern Seniors We were all anxious to return after our adventurous vacation, and every one except Paul Lucas showed up for class on January third. Oh, yes, I almost forgot that Dickerson did not get back until the fifth, and during his absence we had peace and quiet. The room was so monoto- nously still during the study period that some of our night hawks used to go to sleep. While the new year was still young the most important members of the class seemed to be the half-brothers UD Bopp and J. C. Fitzgerald. They were visited by fifteen other Seniors every morning immediately after Latin class. When their supply run short J. C. sought refuge in the big study hall and has been there ever since. On the varsity basketball team we have three men, rather two men and the 'flittle fellow. They are Hand- some Hanson, Goodlooking Koehl and Sweetness Haley. Haley had so many nicknames that we decided to run them into a title for Norm, and this is the result: Delicious Sweetness, the Nymph. Clarence Fields is the school chess champion, although Red Hedikin is running him a close second. Ain't it so, Red '? Joe Schneider, our saxaphone jug- gler, and Little Emmet Mills, our happy-go-lucky, have been blackballed by the Pretty Boys' Club which was recently founded by Handsome and Coodlooking. Joe Kinstle has suggested the in- stalling of a punch clock. Of course he agreed with Logan that the new clock should be used at quitting time only. Logan got so tired staying after school to make up the Ethics period that when he feels he will be late for that particular class he stays home rather than be embarrassed by ar- riving after the prayer has been said. Thus Ethics doth make prompt boys of us all. During the dull hours, Foohey and Schiffle usually enliven the place by their periodic scraps, while Valentine keeps us busy most of our spare time. Spare time is, however, almost a minus quantity since we lost Bun Kinstle and started our famous class of General Mathematics. -William L. Foohey, 522.

Are we downhearted ? Such were the expressions which greeted us as we passed the threshold of the Junior room to start the work of the second half of the year's work. As a result of the opportune arrival of the report cards many of us made good resolu- tions and seem to be determined to keep them. We predicted that our class team of last year would go a long way in the making of the varsity basketball string for this year, and so it hap- pened. Pinkie Koehl, Soup Cent- livre, Tiny Clifford and Bob,' Rinehart made the varsity. During our napping period we hear an occasional Going up !

McCarthy and Smith seem to take a great interest in the Lyceum. Mc- Carthy is treasurer and Smith, of Ar- cola fame, helps Griz spend the money.

Passino still runs Aurentz's delivery Ford and brings Maurice Fox to school quite frequently. When the Letter Club was formed our class furnished the vice-president and the secretary-treasurer. Mc- Kiernan and Donahue hold the re- spective positions. Fitzgerald and Boyle are planning a country club to accommodate Cull, O'Neill, Luley, Suelzer and a few more who have a hobby for visiting the country. ECHO :P he 1' A WB A? A g Eg, u. Cran Hickman, of Wolcottville, who joined us last September, left us very suddenly and sent back this note: The unexpected has come. I am sorry I can be with you no more. His place has been filled by Franklin Bishop, who returned after a year's absence due to ill health. Following an extended vacation in Florida Franklin fis himself again and we gladly welcome him back. ' Ryan and Murphy are getting up a team to beat the Tiny Babes in basketball. Hedekin is a sub on Ry- an's team. Litot found school hours rather long so he got himself a watch to help him pass the time away. Every three minutes he pulls out the watch and counts the seconds until the end of the session. We have been wondering where Burt Rossington and Gene Wilkinson get all their excuses for tardiness. Yet they seem to be lucky in working them. Some one has suggested a lanky guys' club for our class. Surely we have material sufficient. Just look at Gordon, Rinehart and Belot.

After the aforesaid serious thought, however, we brought back our books together with fine resolutions to start the new year. Three Sophs, Graf, Bushman and Kelker, are on the basketball squad, and are playing big roles in the team's victories. Eckert, Belot, Fer- guson and Pauley are holding down positions on the reserve team. Just now, however, the Sophs are inter- ested in the race for the champion- ship of the Senior and Junior Leagues. In the Senior League the Shamrocks, one of our teams, came very near winning the first series of games. They lost out by one point and much arguing in a five-minute overtime period to the Ramblers, winners of the first set of games. In the Junior League the Wolverines, a team composed of the shorties of the class, won the first round of games, and look good to repeat. Before the Christ-mas holidays we were given a knockdown to Caesar, and we have not yet fully recovered from the shock. At an indignation meeting, held after several ponies were reported missing, an uncharita- ble member of the class remarked that while he felt for humanity in general, he couldn't say that he could express regret had the affair between Brutus and Caesar happened before the Commentaries were written. At the same meeting it was unanimously decided that it would take more than several legions to defend Caesar. should he come to the Soph room at 1 p. m. During the cold spell in January we held a class meeting and made some beautiful arrangements for a bob-sled party, but when the day or rather the night for the aiair had ar- rived, the sun interfered.

Or this sentence from Cae- sar: The Belgians wished to die with their arms in their hands. As for our classes, Geometry is causing a good bit of concern at pres- ent, so much so that one member of the class gave vent to this pessimis- tic utterance: Wouldn't our geom- etry teacher be mad tomorrow if we should all die tonight. Hot dog! The class has even affected Gardner, and he straightway gave a rendition of his latest song, Those Geometry Blues. We all wept, out of sym- pathy, of course. In spite of all dif- ficulties, however, we refuse to be disconsolate, and we think our sturdy six will arrive at the end of the year with colors flying. -Eugene Hnsselonan, 'Zia l..,..,l..11i.ii.. Freshmen When we came back after our va- cation we found very few changes in the order of things. A class meeting was held and President Arthur Zu- ber gave a spicy talk in which he in- formed us that in future our class meeting would begin with prayer and that the sessions would be conducted strictly according to parliamentary rules. He also mentioned the class dues and urged those who had not paid to do so as soon as possible. The purpose of the class treasury and ECHO C class fund was fully explained and everybody seemed delighted with the new system. Word reached us that the boys in the Athletic Club at the Cathedral school would like to arrange boxing matches with some of our hundred and twenty pounders. We favored the idea, so Gene Shea and Red McLaughlin are .waiting for the whis- tle. The class newspaper craze struck the Freshman class at last. Prom- inent among the new publications are Plain Dealer, edited by Fordyceand McLaughlin, the Goofy Gazette, spon- sored by Oddou, the Rnbvtlle Bugle, fathered by Mulhaupt, the Standard and Times, at whose helm stands Midget Weber, and the Red M onop- oly, a product of the efforts of Red Foohey, Keller, Kallmyer, Moran and Perrey. We wish them allkinds of success and hope to form more youth- ful Ben Franklins, but why not have a consolidated paper and perhaps run the Echo out of business, or else join the Echo and make it a greater suc- cess. Our class is said to be a pennant winner in View of the fact that it is the largest class that ever started at C. C. H. S. We are proud of this but we take greater pride in our ability to stick together. Seventy-two we started and seventy-two we stand, for when Brudi and Blaising were lured by taxi driving and hash-slinging, and left us, Berghoff and Waltz from the public high school speedily regis- tered to fill the vacancies, while Alex- ander Campbell joined us for good measure.

On the inside of the house the baby was trying to do the same. The irate father was making a des- perate effort to reach the climax of his novel, until finally he became so interested in the story that instead of occupying the whole Morris chair that his corpulent body could easily have filled, he occupieda few inches close to the edge near the wall. His knees were clapped together. His fingers went from time to time to his mouth, then to his hair. What the father was reading was this: The villain came closer to Frank, who was bound and gagged in a chair. Frank did not see the villain or he would have struggled. The vil- lain was behind Frank, his arm was raised, something flashed in his hand. Ah! A dagger. The hand was raised g it came slowly downward toward our hero's breast. Frank scenting the dagger turned slowly around in his chair, and as he did so a knife buried itself deep into the back of the chair he had partially vacated. A smothered oath, sign of a struggle, a dull thud, all these and more had happened in a small minute. Frank looked around expecting to find a new enemy but instead his eyes fell upon the prostrate form of his old enemy, and in another second he felt a tap upon his shoulder. Quickly looking up he perceived it to' be his old friend Bob. As the reader came to the part where Bob grasped the villain's wrist, he felt a hand grab his own ankle. Frightened so that he dared not to look down he gave a short gasp. When he- plucked up enough courage to lower his eyes, he saw his own two- year-old son trying to get a chance to climb up and sit on its father's knee. Oh Heavens! How you frightened me. Then, looking at the novel he had just finished, he threw it into the fire where it belonged, and uttered a dis- gusting grunt.-Gerald Libbifng, 525.

'91-T 5 -2,1 ff' J Basketball Decatur, and although they lost by a The season is progressing with the basketball squad performing beyond expectations, the year so far being the most successful that a C. C. H. S. team has ever had. To date the var- sity has won eight out of eleven games played, only one game having been lost to a high school quintet. In glancing over the record it is evident that the team was unusually success- ful away from home, losing only one game in four played. The material at the beginning of the season was much beyond the or- dinary, but the credit for the work of the team is due to Coach Frank Flaherty, who not only knows how to teach the game, but also has the fac- ulty of getting sixty minutes of work out of every hour of practice. Under his tutelage the team is a five-man quintet, with every member always going at full speed. The personnel of the team follows: Bushman, N. Koehl, and Haley, for- wards, J. Koehl, captain and center, Centlivre, Graf, Hanson and Kelker, guards. With a view of preparing for com- ing years a reserve team composed of members of the Junior and Sopho- more classes was formed after the holidays. At the present writing they have played only one game, that against the Catholic High School of score of 12 to 9, they gave promise of great development that will make them active candidates for positions next year. The members of the squad are: E. Luley, captain, E. Bresna- han, W. Hedekin, L. Belot, D. Fergu- son, D. Eckert, H. Pauley and J. Perrey. Alumni, December 10 As in other years, the resident alumni offered the first opposition to the varsity and the team starting off like a whirlwind, buried the Alumni quintet under an avalanche of bas- kets. The final score was 67 to 9. The C. C. H. S. quintet showed bril- liant form in every department, drop- ping baskets from all angles, passing well, and presenting a strong defense. Captain Koehl and his brother Nor- bert played a big part in the victory, accountting for fifteen baskets be- tween them. Graf made thirteen out of fifteen free throws. For the Alumni, Ed Bushman, 19, made the best showing. St. Rose High, December 16 Our old rivals, St. Rose High, of Lima, Ohio, came for their annual game, and like the Buckeye quintets of other years, furnished stubborn opposition throughout, although the C. C. H. S. lads won by the score of 32 to 10. The Ohio boys got away to an early lead, but before five minutes DANIEL BROS.

Alumni, December 23 Frankie Doriot led his Alumni band against the varsity and conclu- sively demonstrated that he is one of the best basketball players who ever wore a C. C. H. S. uniform.

EXHYO ers, Herman Centlivre and Maurice Boland of the hall teams at Notre Dameg Ralph Neeb, of the Freshman squad at Miami University, and Paul Miller, a reserve on the Campion Col- lege quintet. The write-up in the N ews had this to say of the game:. Losing to such stars as were included in the Alumni line-up by the narrow margin of four points shows that the Central varsity has considerable strength and is a match for any high school in the state. The Alumni stepped into the lead early in the game, and while they were always hard pressed by the younger cagers, they were never forced to relinquish the long end of the score, although just before the end of the game the varsity staged a spurt ,which all but put them even with their opponents.

M onroeyille High, Jahiwwy If In a rough and tumble contest in which very few fouls were called the varsity lost its first inter-scholastic game to Monroeville High, 23 to 18. The Monroeville players knew their court to perfection, and this coupled with hard luck in shooting by the Centrals spelled defeat. With Cent- livre out of the line-up the C. C. H. S. defensive work was not so much in evidence, and as a result the victors made more field goals than were made by any other of our opponents to date. Angola High, January 6' The Monroeville game made the boys work harder, and Angola High was unfortunate in being the next team on our schedule. The varsity went to Angola with full strength, and came back with a 20 to 10 vic- tory. A great defensive game and ex- pert free throwing explains the win. The Angola boys, who won the dis- trict tournament last spring and look good to repeat this year, made but three free throws, and failed to con- nect on their free throws. Graf made ten count.

Lil' Char- ley Graf left back guard long enough to sink two field goals and three free throws before his teammates got started. The first half ended 16 to 1. In the second half Bushman went oh a rampage, and before the game was over tallied eight times from the field. Haley also went well, scoring three times from the field during the sec- ond half. Graf made six out of seven free throws. I. B. C., January 13 ' The game with the Cathedral High of Indianapolis having been canceled, the varsity took on the International Business College quintet, a team composed of former high school stars. The Centrals underestimated the cal- iber of their opponents, and as a re- sult the I. B. C. piled up a 14 to 5 lead in the first half. The varsity took the floor in the second period with Coach Flah9rty's remarks sticking out in all directions and came very near winning a vic- tory. A free throw was all the com- mercial boys garnered during the sec- ond half, while the C. C.'s scored 7 points, but the game ended 15 to 12 with the I. B. C. in front. 1 .1 'hi E 5 9: '4 I I I ' I a l FRANK MUNGQVAN FUNERAL DIRECTOR MOTOR EQUIPMENT AMBULANCE SERVICE 1908-1910 Calhoun Street Phone 6649 More Than Thirty Years Successful e -1 M, M r Q, eo I Q, .

The visitors started out like sure winners, scoring four points before Flaherty's team got started. Cnce the team work of the Centrals was set in motion, however, the out- come of the game was evident. The victory was costly, however, for Rine- hart, who had injured his knee on two other occasions, made a third attempt to get into the line-up, but he lasted less than a minute before his knee snapped under him again. J. Koehl, with six field goals, and Bushman with four, were high scor- ers. Central High of Toledo, Jcmuary 27 The contest with the Central Cath- olic High of Toledo was just the kind of game that the C. C. H. S. follow- ers were expecting, and it ended in the right way-25 to 17 in our favor. lt was a contest full of action from the first whistle, although the tive- man defense employed by both quin- tets slowed it up somewhat. The score was close and the way, with but few points separating the combatants until well toward the end, when Coach Flaherty's men increased their lead gained in the first period, which ended 12 to 8. The visitors displayed some of the cleverest team work and passing wit- nessed here this season, and it was only the stellar work of Graf and Centlivre that prevented them from scoring on numerous occasions after they had worked the ball within close range. Bechtel and Madden showed up best for the visitors, all of whom .ECHO . played a snappy game. Flaherty's lads gave the same speedy and steady exhibition that has characterized their play so far this season. C. C. H. S. lFt. WJ C. C. H. S.

A peace that is blest and comes with the eve, To comfort sad hearts and from labor relieve, And to fill the whole soul with love and with praise, For that God on whose Face the seraphim gaze. When shadows fall fast from the western hill, And gather below in the valley so still, Then all living creatures are bidden to rest, And the good deeds of men are recorded and blest. -George Fitzgerald, '23, Easter Visitors Just as the sun was shedding its last rays through the stained-glass windows of an old Franciscan monas- tery, a venerable monk leisurly made his way to the great pipe organ sit- uated in the chapel choir. The sway- ing limbs of the trees near the con- vent wall caused the sun's rays to dance in various shapes about the room. Each color in the large win- dow sent its representative to the game of hide and seek which the sun played on the bare, white floor. Every now and then a bolder shadow was seen to kiss the good old monk's ton- sured' head, and he almost uncon- sciously let his fingers wander as they list, as if to build a bridge to dream- land for his lay. The flood of light gradually dimin- ished as the sun wheeled his ruddy course homewardg and just as he was about to kiss adieu to Sister Earth, two white-clad youths in flowing gar- ments swayed beside the monk as if keeping time to his musical medita- tions. Apparently impelled by a heavenly wish, his wandering notes took the form of the beautiful Easter hymn, He is Risen. To his great surprise, his youthful visitors sweetly accom- panied him, and to catch their celes- tial lay, he lighter and lighter struck his notes, and sweeter and softer the gentle melody of their voices was wafted to his ears. Slightly grieved at not being able to hear their song, he ceased to play and turned to gaze at them, when lo' he was alone. Silently he satg but as if to beckon for them to return, he gently turned and again played a tune. It was his mother's favorite, My Rosary. The hnurs I spent with thee, dear heart, Are as a string of pearls to mer? - Sweet indeed the words, and sweet the melody, but sweeter by far the dear white-haired, old lady, his mother, who had often sat and wept: as he played the air, putting into it all the energy of his soul, which made. the organ breathe the gentle words in her ears. H As his mind drifted back over then stormy sea, if stormy can be used to express childhood's petty troubles, the dear face of his mother gently,f but forcibly outlined itself before r. him. As he proceeded, 'Each hour's a pearl- . the little string of pearls he worked, so hard to procure as an adornmentr for that loving neck he had so often clasped in his childish embrace, shone as if each one were a tiny sun held together by a thin web of gold. Fearing to be deprived of this vision as he had been of that of the angels', he continued softly that tear- ' 1 T THE ECHO 5 ful air. His soul seemed raised to the heights of heaven, and, as a gentle smile smoothed the wrinkles on her shining brow, he could no longer con- tinue to play, but raised his snow- White hands to her and cried, Mother. And to punish him for ceasing to play her favorite piece, the loving countenance vanished. What was he to do? This second vision weighed more heavily upon him than the first. In vain he tried to recall her. His fingers struck the keys but no silvery, pealing sounds broke in upon the deathless silence of the room. He gave up his fruit- less efforts and once more was buried in deep thought. The silvery hair shone brightly in his imagination, the light pinkglow over the cheeks, the clear whiteness of her noble brow as if illuminated by heavenly brightne-ss, caused him to weep, and, as the large pearly tears rolled down his hollowed cheeks, he again made an effort to soothe his troubled spirit by playing a hymn to his Blessed Mother. To his great surprise the notes chimed more silvery than before. The little chapel seemed flooded with heavenly light and the loving words, Mother dear, oh pray for me Whilst far from heaven and thee, caused a peculiar sensation to pass over his trembling frame. No lan- guage can express the emotions of that moment, it was so vivid, so de- lightful, and withal so unexpected and mysterious. A volume of light encircled the organ slightly above his head, and it gradually and evenly spread from a point as does the water in a calm, undisturbed lake when some loiterer lazily treads his way along its banks, and throws a stone deep within its heart. As the little ripples in circles spread and spread until they Wash the shining sands on the beach, so the light appeared be- fore him. Another mysterious form gradually made itself visible. His soul was flooded with delight, and for a while he paused as if afraid to raise his head. The notes broke from their retreat with loving impatience, and at the words, I wander in a fragile bark, O'er life's tempestous sea, he slightly raised his snow-white head, and lo' Mary, his heavenly Queen, with her Divine Son in her arms, sweetly smiled upon him. O, my faithful son, spoke the Virgin. I have sent you these vis- ions, and have waited until now to tell you what they mean. The two youthful forms were angels, one your loving guardian, the other a messen- ger sent by me to inform him of your departure from this vale of tears. The dear face of your mother, was sent to fill you with joy and confi- dence, and I have come to take you with me. Come, dear child. His soul as white as the snow on a mountain's crest, was folded within her loving mantle and was borne to the heights of heaven. When the bell for evening prayer was rung and one by one the monks passed into the choir to raise their voices to God in the Matins , the lifeless form of their dear friend rested upon the organ. In vain they tried to bring him back to consciousness, thinking he was in an ecstacy, but no, he was really dead. His voice now joined with theirs in the choirs of heaven. -J. G. K. Heaven is for those who try to get there. -J. M.

Although he practiced regu- larly and performed to the best of his ability he could not get a regular po- sition on the team. At seven thirty on the appointed evening the game started with Bob on the bench. Within the first twen- ty-five seconds of the game Columbia scored a field goal but the score was soon tied when a Newport cager made a long shot from center. The game see-sawed back and forth and the half ended 8 to 6 in favor of the Colum- bians. In the second half the Newport cagers came back like a whirlwind, making four field goals in five min- utes. Surely this looked like defeat for the Columbians. All this time Bob was sitting on the bench, conscious of nothing but the game. Ch, how he wanted to get into it. Finally he arose, went over to the table and asked how -much time there was to play. He was told that there were five minutes more. Five minutes! and the score was 8 to 14. He decided to make one last eiort so he walked up to the coach and asked, Can't I go in ? The coach studied for a moment and then answered, Well, Ben looks pretty tired, better go in in his place. Bob was too busy to be happy. He was thinking of what he had to do to make Columbian come out on the long end of the score. He immediately called time out and went in. The whistle blew as the referee tossed up the ball. The Newport cen- ter tapped the ball overhead to the guard. The guard fumbled and, as quick as a flash, Bob picked up the ball and made a basket. - The ball again went to center and soon after the jump a foul was called on a New- port player for hooking. Bob made the free throw. Three points behind and three min- utes to go. Bob was all excited. The Junior got the ball from the' jump, cleverly ducked a Newport guard and threw the ball to one of his men, who tossed it through the net. g - The crowd was in an uproar, such cries as, Sink one, Red, Let's go, gang, and One more basket, es- caped from the lips of the spectators. Just as the referee tossed up the ball, Bob ran around behind the cen- ter, who tapped the ball to him. He was near the center of the floor when he shot. The ball whizzed through the air straight for the basket. Just as it was passing through the net the time gun went oi. Lucky Bob had won the game and saved his team from a defeat. -Frank Parrot, '25, i1.l Manners Every boy should bear in mind the enormous value of manners.

Unexpected Jim Howard was a sort of im- pulsive fellow, good-looking, with no particularly bad habits, but he was always seeking pleasure and a good time and he had certain ways about him that made it easy for him to win friends. Jim belonged to a prominent wealthy family and had just been graduated from a celebrated law school in the East. If one could read the young man's mind one would see there the youth's desire to become distinguished in his profession and to make a name for himself i11 the world of law, but Jim was one of those people who like to get every- thing with little or no effort. After he left school his father told him to take a few months rest before begin- ning his profession. Jim readily agreed to this, and several months passed by, Jim enjoying himself with his young friends and seldom think- ing of settling down to business. Finally, after several hints had been given him that he ought to get down to work and make preparations for the practice of his chosen profes- sion, he went to his father and said to him: Father, I think I am ready to begin work now and I should like to start my career in your office. I can learn .more quickly there than any place else, and after a year or so I shall be able to start out for my- self. Now, Mr. Howard knew his son too well to let him start off in this way. He knew Jim's love of pleasure and his dislike for work and that it would be useless to take him into his office so he tried to dissuade him from such a thing. Jim, said his father to him, HI think it would be much better for you to go to Auburn and take up your work there. You will never make good in your home town, one seldom does. In my long career as a lawyer I have seen many 'young men start off just as you want to start off now and they made a failure of their en- tire business. Profit by what I am telling you. I had to go away to a strange place to begin my work, and if you want to succeed I believe that you will have to do the same thing. 3 THE ECHO This was anything but pleasant for the young man, for he had figured on an easy time at home. He knew that if he went away and began work with a stranger he would have to set- tle down and begin business in ear- nest. He tried every means in his power to persuade his father to al- low him to work in his office, and finally both lost their temper and a vehement altercation passed between them. Jim was ordered to leave the house and not to return. From that time on Jim Howard cared little what happened to him. He did not begin work nor did he leave the city, but perhaps it would have been better for him if he had. He cast aside every good quality he had ever possessed, gave himself up to a life of dissipation and began to trod the downward path. It was not long before he made friends with the worst characters in the city. Jim was soon initiated into the ways of his new companions and worked with them in everything they did. He helped them on several little jobs, but for some time, to use their expres- sions, there had been nothing do- ing. One night while they were sit- ting about their meeting place enjoy- ing a game of put and take, some one suggested that they get busy and pull off something worth while. Every one agreed and before long plans were completed for robbing the residence of one of the leading busi- ness men in the city. Every precau- tion was taken in order that they might get away safe, but the man placed on guard was asleep on his job. One of the servants managed to get out of the house, and the fellow posted outside took him for one of his own men, thinking that he was simply going to try some other part of the house. The servant before long returned with the police and the gang was rounded up. Jim, bolder than the others, broke away and made his escape by darting through back 'alleys and dark streets. He knew he would have to leave so he jumped the first freight that was pulling out of the city. For some time he was going from place to place and after two or three months he found himself in one of the larger cities of Kentucky. He was growing tired of bumming from one town to another so he got a job from a well-to-do farmer, Han- son by name, a few miles out from the city. He performed his duties well, made friends with all about the farm, but said nothing concerning his past life or where he came from. For a while everything went on smoothly. Then Jim began to pay frequent visits to the city and would stay several days at a time. The farmer told Jim he would have to be more regular or else look for a job elsewhere. This started a quarrel between them, but Jim promised to do better, yet he had a feeling of dis- like for Hanson. Several quarrels followed and Jim was discharged for good. His anger against his employ- er knew no bounds and he vowed that he would get even with him some time. A few nights after this Jim was prowling about the place and met his former employer in the field some distance from the house. Jim ac- costed him and Hanson ordered Jim away. Words led to blows, and in a passion the young man drew a knife and slashed the farmer's throat. Quickly he slipped the knife into the THE ECHO 9 old man's hand and made his escape. As it grew late and Mr. Hanson did not return to the house, the fam- ily began a search and found him ly- ing across the path leading to a spring on the hill. At first every- thing pointed to suicide, but the man's relatives knew no reason why he should take such a step as that. Then they suspected Jim of commit- ting the murder and the best detect- ives were sent for and put on his tracks, but no trace of him could be found in the city nor in the sur- rounding country. The detectives were told to continue their search through the entire country, but they had no clue to work on except the knife found in the dead man's hand, and this the family was certain did not belong to the murdered man. bk Dk Pk bk Uk One winter's night about three years after the murder had been com- mitted a crowd of men were sitting around a stove in a country grocery store in a small town in Illinois. They were telling stories, and soon one of them took a knife from his pocket and began to whittle a piece of wood. No one seemed to pay any attention to him, but one, after watching 'him closely said, Where did you get that knife 5 let me take it a moment, will you ? Sure, replied the other and hand- ed it to him. Say, where did! you get this knife, he asked as he looked at it. I used to have one just like this. O, did you? Then you are just the man I want. At last the detective, after several years of search, had unexpectedly come upon his man, and Jim Howard unexpectedly gave himself away, and is now serving his life sentence for the crime he committed. -Eugene Cull, '23.

We cannot, at present, satisfactorily account for the decadence of a sport once so promi- nent. A few years ago, a track-meet schedule was incomplete unless it had at least three competitions in bicycle races. Those were the real sporting days. Those were the days when ath- letics were indulged in purely as ath- letics, and not as a means of liveli- hood. Bicycling was formerly con- sidetred as a healthful sport and ex- ercise. Scientific investigation of later days has claimed the contrary to be the case. Instead of a healthful exercise, it is, they say, a health de- stroying labor. While it gives play to a few muscles, it permits the rest to be dormant. The very position neces- sary for bicycling is most injurious to the health and development of the lungs. A rider is unable to inhale or exhale properly. Many young per- sons have ridden to their death, by this once prominent factor in the field of athletics. I It is these notable and prejudicial results that have led to the abandon- ing of bicycling in the modern track- meets of the Middle West. People are beginning to realize that while man may do good work by giving amuse- ment to his fellowmen, yet no man is, or can be, expected to ruin his health and jeopardize his life for the sole purpose of aiording amusement to his fellowmen. From the disastrous results that bicycling has had in the past, some critics have been lead to believe that bicycling should be uni- versally prohibited. Personally, I have a more sympa- ECHO thetic apology for the disappearance of bicycling as a sport. I think that bicycling came, like many other obso- lete sports, and it had its day. It served its purpose. It paved the way for other feats, and then it passed away, as fencing has done. Bicycling passed away not because it was bad in itself, or in its results, but simply because of the utilitarism of the- pres- ent century. Bicycles were a neces- sity before the street cars and jitney busses became so common. More- over, many persons who formerly were glad to ride a bicycle are now able to have, for their own conveni- ence, motorcycles and automobiles. Thus it is, that when bicycles ceased to be a utility, bicycling ceased to be a sport. I -Edwin O'Nefill, '23, Viola', ' So much has been written on the character in Twelfth Night, with whom we take the deepest interest, that it is almost presumtion to say that a new field of interest has been created. The expressing of general reasons for the choosing of Viola would 1 in most cases! be simply par- aphrastic statements, and even fin many casesl downright plagiarism. To voice my reasons for selecting this particular character in Shakespeare, I would say that when I first read the play, Twelfth N ight,' I was immedi- ately fascinated by the alluring charms of Viola's words and actions, as well as by her deep-rooted love of the melodious and persuasive sound of golden tongued music. Viola is an essentially noble charac- ter. She is high-born, beautiful, in- tellectually keen, appreciative of fun, gracious and lovely. Her love of mu- l 1 i 1 ,I l in E THE ECHO 11 sic is best described by herself. She says: Music . . . gives a very echo to the seat where Love is lthronedf' Viola has the most self- control of any character we meet in Shakespeare. She possesses all the delicacy and refinement of a true, high-bred woman. Her love is not a mere whim or caprice: it is not an ungoverned and unreasoning passion, as is that of so many of the author's characters. Her love is full grown and ardent. fApologies for using Mr. Wm. H. Fleming's phrasesb. Her love is true, sincere, heartfelt, and, withal, controlled affection. She does all that is befitting the true heroine of the play. i Critics place Viola first and fore- most among the characters in Twelfth Night. Mr. John S. Hart, LL. D., in his volume, under the head of Plots of Shakespeare's Plays, says: Viola is the true heroine of the play. Wm. Hazlett, in his book entitled, 'Characters of Shakespeare's Plays, says: The great and secret charm of 'Twelfth Night' is the char- acter of Viola. Professor L. A. Sher- man in his introduction to the great plays, What is Shakespeare '? says: In 'Twelfth Night' . . . the interest centers in some certain personality . . . Viola, and this personality pre- sented and treated for its own sake. Masters Fleming, Brewer, Wells, Mil- ler, Powers and a number of other reputable authorities place Viola as the most important character in the play. Indeed, Master Fleming says that Viola is Shakespeare's type of the normal. As such she represents and embodies the normal from which ll other characters have deviated. ile it is possible to quote dozens of ther worthy critics, it seems to me that my point has been sufficiently substantiated to enable me to pass on and merely give a summary of their views on this matter. Viola is the type of the normal. She is essentially noble and high-minded. She is the true heroine, and the great and secret charm of the drama. Her character is presented and treated for its own sake. Her self-control is the ,most firm that we find in the charac- ters of Shakespeare. Her love is ma- ture and ardent. She is most true and sincere. She is a high-bred woman, who does naught that is in- compatible with her rank in society. Her sorrow over her brother's loss is equalled by her courage, love and pa- tience., She is well worthy of the name she bears. She is indeed well deserving to have said of her what was said of her name-sake, that she is Fair as a star, when only one is shining in the sky. In order to understand the import- ance of Viola in relation to the plot, it may be well to divide the charac- ters Cas Mr. Fleming doesl into three groups. The Ducal group is composed of the Duke, Valentine, and Curio. In the Olivia group we find the names: Olivia, Marie, Sir Toby Belch, Sir An- drew Agueckeek, Malvolio, Fabian, Feste and all the lesser characters, except Sabastian and Antonio who belong to a third group, and Viola who is more or less connected with all of them. Violais the principal complicating and also the principal resolving force in the drama. This is her primary dramatic function. She is also the link person. Her function is to bring together the dif- ferent Dramatis Personaef' She is the dramatic hook and eye. She is the Duke's messenger to Olivia. as 12 THE she herself says, describing her dra- matic life after she was saved, and . . . preserved to serve this noble count. All the occurrence lof my fortune since Hath been between this lady COliviaJ, and This lord fthe Dukebff Viola's words may well be classed as wonderful contributions to litera- ture. Where is there a more exciting confession of love, than the follow- ing words of Viola to the Duke? 'A blank, my lord, she never told her love': She let concealment, like a worm i' th' bud, Feed on her damask cheek, she pin'd in thought, And with a green and yellow melan- choly, She sat like Patience on a monument Smiling at grief. 'Was not this love indeed ?' We men may say more, swear more, but indeed, Gur shews are more than will, for still we prove Much in our vows, but little in our love. Where is there a more poetic thought on music than Viola ex- presses when she says: Music . . . gives a very echo to the seat where Love is thronedf' Again she says looking at a picture, Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white Na- ture's own sweet and cunning hand laid on: Lady, you are the cruell'st she alive, If you will lead these graces to the grave And leave the world no copy. That phrase so common to us all, Love sought is good, but given unsought is better,' comes from the lips of Viola. Scores of other most beautiful passages might be quoted ECHO but space will not permit them in this limited essay. While it may be true that Viola does not find first rank in the eyes of some of the best known critics. of Shakespeare, yet it is true that she is evidently the best character in the play, Twelfth Night. Indeed, Mrs. Jameson in her excellent treatment of the woman characters in Shake- speare, chooses no character from Twelfth Night except Viola. Not even Juliet ranks with Viola in in- spiring a more delicate sympathy with woman. Viola is--in my hum- ble opinion-the ideal woman in Shakespeare. Portia, so much loved by critics, is not the normal type of woman. While Portia may possibly be more admirable, Viola is by far the more imitable. It would be out of the question to offer a comparison' of the voluptuous Cleopatra with the modest Viola. Perhaps the nearest approach to the character of Viola is that of Queen Katherine as depicted in Henry VIII. Cordelia possesses some of the virtues of Viola, but still 4 she is lacking in many of those which' Viola has. I think it would be lower- ' I l I I 1 ing Viola somewhat, if I should men- nl' tion her for comparison with Imogen, the much cited female character in 1- Cymbeline. There is a peculiar ex- 1 cellence about Shakespeare's hero- ines, and this excellence is best exem- plified in Shakespeare's type of the it normal, Viola. -Thomas M cKiermm, '23, I rejoice with exceeding great joy? in the midst of my tribulations.

THE ECHO 1:5 The Sea's Toll The rollers beat. the ragged shoreg ' The sea winds howl and moan g There's a gruesome hulk on the ocean fioor. A proud new ship will sail no more, And wives are left alone. Yes, the sea winds moan a requiem, To the daring souls now fied, And the sorrowed ones who mourn for them. For beside the ship with the proud emblem, They sleep on a watery bed. And each wife by the cold, grey fire-place, Bends unseeing eyes to the sea, Or gazes, hurt-like into empty space' With a dreadful fear on her anxious face, And a heart that beats fearfully. A messenger comes with the sorrowful word, Sore grieved at his dreaded task, But the wife-she knows-sits on instirred With her hard bright eyes undazed, unblurred, And her face like a stony mask. Then she lifts a curse to the frenzied night, For the sea takes bitter toll, And its arrogant strength, resistless might Has drained her heart, has quenched the light In her eyes and slain her soul. Still, the sea winds howl and moan and sigh, And the rollers beat the shore, The angry clouds wend across the sky, And sea birds raise a dirge on high- For the lads who'll said no more. ' -R. N. Only A Medal In the days when the shores of the Brit- ish Isles suffered from the depredations of the many pirate ships that infested the At- lantic, there lived on one of the numerous islands that lie scattered about the north- West coast of Scotland, a doctor named Duncan McMahon with his wife and chil- dren, Tom and Elizabeth. One afternoon in early May Duncan Mc- Mahon went to visit a sick person on one of the islands, and before he left home he told his wife that he would be back late in the evening, -but he never returned. That night a great storm raged around the Scot- tish coast-a storm such as Stevenson would depict, tearing boats from their moorings, and throwing pieces of foam into the air. To Mrs. McMahon in her cottage the noise of the storm brought dread expectation. She did not sleep that night, and when morning came and her husband had not yet returned, her suspense became unbearable. At last she resolved to go out in quest of her husband, and so taking at pair of oars she pushed out in a boat from the island. Across the quiet waters she sailed, but at the different places where she inquired she could get no information of her husband. She was about to head her boat for home when she saw something black upon the waters. With all speed she rowed towards the object and to her grief found it to be a capsized boat, the one, as nearly as she could tell, that her husband had used. Homeward she rowed' her boat, scarcely able to strike the water with her oars. That day went by and many another too, but still Duncan McMahon returned not. To Tom and Elizabeth, brought up as they were near the sea, the deep blue ocean was their friend and companion. Out upon it they gazed many a time with delight, watching its waves in their ceaseless move- ment, or as with souls stirred by the spirit of adventure, they sailed over its rough bosom. But for Mrs. Duncan the sea held little joy since the loss of her husband. She was always fretful while Tom and Eliza- beth were out on the water. Her health became poorer and poorer until death ended her unhappiness, and her children were left truly alone. Tom and Elizabeth, now fourteen and twelve, respectively, were obliged to sell their home and remove to a poorer one. Some kind patron bought their property, and the children retired to lodgings on an- other island. Their new home was little more than a hovel, but it was the best they could afford. Here they passed two years almost unknown to the few scattered neigh- bors around them. They managed, how- ever, to support themselves by running er- rands, and sometimes Tom caught fish and sold them in the village on a neighboring island. It was while on one of these business trips that he discovered near to where he moored his boat, a large silver medal. After exam- ining it closely he remembered that he had seen his father with one very much like this, so he took it home and showed it to his sister. Both came to the conclusion that it was the very medal which their father had received for his services in the English army. I4 THE Not long after the finding of the medal Tom went to the village to make some pur- chases. When he put his hand into his pocket to get his money, he found he had nothing but the medal, and in his confu- sion he showed it to the storekeeper, telling him that he had mistaken it for a coin. The incident attracted the attention of two or three standing by, but one of the group, a distinguished-looking middle-aged man, seemed more curious than the others and asked to see the medal. Tom looked at the stranger with surprise, and then placed the medal in his hand. After a moment's glance, the stranger's features seemed paralyzed with emotion, and when he at last spoke, it was Tom's turn for astonishment. This is mine, the stranger replied, and in that short sentence Tom understood that he had found his father. Duncan McMahon told his story. The night of his disappearance he had been met by a pirate ship, and its crew dragged him on board, and forced him to undertake a voyage to the Pacific Islands. Duncan was known to one of the pirates, and they covet- ed his services as a doctor. In return for his work he was to have a share in their booty. In order not to arouse their Wrath he complied with their wishes, but refused to accept any of their ill-gotten money. After a year or more spent in the Pacific Islands, they sailed for England, but fear- ing that the doctor might bring them to justice, and not caring to take his life, for he had been kind to them, they quietly let him oi on the island from which they had taken him. Then they sailed away for the English coast. -Edmund Bfresnahcm, '23. The Fire Listen! There goes the fire bells. It's Box No. 142. Get the book, Dick, and look up where the fire is. It's on the corner of Main and Calhoun streets. Let's go over, it's only around the corner. The two boys were Tom and Dick Strong. They lived together in a small place over a corner drug store. Dick had been hurt over in the shops ECHO and the doctor said that only by a sudden shock could he recover his full senses which had been displaced when the accident occurred. I The boys quickly reached the fire. On arriving, the boy heard the fire- man say that every apparatus was out. The firemen were unable to con- trol the blaze. And so everybody stood by to see the one time rooming house fall to the ground, but when every one drew back so no one would get hurt, a small figure appeared at a window on the third floor. Every one's eyes were turned upward as the form fell. A voice beside cried Mother! and rushed to the ladder the firemen were getting into posi- tion. Before the firemen knew they were pushed aside and the figure of a man was, seen going up the ladder. It was a few minutes before Tom knew it was his brother going up the ladder to rescue the figure at the window. . . Meanwhile Dick plowed up the lad- der. The first story was hot, the sec- ond hotter and the third story was hell itself. As the fireman swung the ladder into position before the win7 dow, Dick climbed in. The room was in a blaze and Dick could see the- parched skin fall off his hands as he reached down and picked up the form of his mother. He did not realize the danger he had gone through until he was caught by a stalwart fireman and let to the ground. He was about to utter a few words when everything went black. Weeks passed and when he came to, his mother was bending over him, and he heard the doctor say, We saved you and now we have him where he will get well. , -John Huguencwd, '23.

The fellow who knows he can't win but still fights on to a finish is the fellow who gains most. He makes an eiort, he overcomes himself, he places himself above the criticising Wits of the school. He gives evi- dences that he is going to fight his Own battles in life, that he will not be a slave to human respect, that he is not going to bury his one God-given talent for fear of losing it. Of such as these is the best stratum of so- ciety formed. The quitter and the eratic child of genius find no place in the ranks of the forward-marching citizens of character and principle. -E. O. N. i I THE ECHO 17 The Present Moment Our life is all a mistake largely be- cause we do not use the opportunity of the present moment. The best preparation for the future is the pres- ent well seen to and the last duty well done. We look back mournfully over the past and ask ourselves what we have accomplished, the amount of good done, and we are surprised at its paucity, we have allowed precious time to dibble through our fingers like sand. We have overlooked the fact that the opportunity of a life- time is the lifetime of the opportun- ity, which is generally brief. It is no use waiting till we have more time, more powers, more money, more advantages, we must use what we possess, give readily what we have got and develop the energy and use of the talents of the present mo- ment. Food For Thought To the Catholic mind Easter means something more than new gowns and Spring fashions. Its significance is deeper, broader, grander. It is truly the day which the Lord hath made, the day which signals the triumph of Christ, His victory over death, His final, incontrovertible proof of His ty. Yet how few there are who in Christ the Divine Son of Some may say that this lack faith is due to prejudice and bigot- But is it 'not rather because of ce? Are not the words of the r still strikingly true: The indeed is great, but the labor- are few ? Never before was there such a need or religious vocations as exists to- New parishes and schools are in almost every diocese of our country, but they cannot be estab- lished because of the lack of priests and teachers. What are you doing that this crying need may be filled? What encouragement have you given to the boy or girl who desires to con- secrate himself or herself to the spe- cial service of Christ? Many vocations have been lost through the opposition, direct or in- direct, of parents. After weeks, per- haps months of prayer and reflection, the young soul feels that God is call- ing it to the religious life. The sub- ject is broached to father and to mother. At once they are up in arms. They declare that they will never give their consentg that it would break their hearts to lose their child. Or possibly they may merely laugh at the idea, ridicule it and make the child feel that, after all, those desires for a religious life were only pious delu- sions. In any case the vocation is lost. What a sad mistake! How few parents seem to realize that in thwarting the designs of God in their children, they are very probably set- ting traps and pitfalls which may eventually result in eternal ruin? How few understand that through their sacrifice they will bring upon themselves the richest blessings of God, and establish a strong claim to everlasting happiness? The wise parent will always try to bring out that which is best in the child, and will consequently foster a true voca- tion, for surely nothing better could enter any life than the call to the service of Christ. As for those who feel the call to the religious life, why should they hesitate? It matters not whether the call be 18 THE to the priesthood, the brotherhood or the sisterhood. If it comes from God nothing should be allowed to inter- fere with its accomplishment. With- out Priests it will be impossible to evangelize even our own country, to say nothing of those millions of souls still shrouded in the darkness of paganism. Without Brothers it will be impossible to afford Catholic edu- cation for our-young men seeking the advantages of the High School, which will prepare them for entrance into the university. Without Sisters our parochial schools, our hospitals, our institutions of charity cannot be ex- tended and increased. . Christ is risen. For you, yes. But not alone for you. He is risen for all mankind. And what have you done that others may know this truth? Nothing? Then resolve that you will lend the strength of your support to the good cause, that you will be par- ticularly zealous in fostering and en- couraging vocations. You may not be able to do much in a direct way, but you can participate in that mighty campaign which has ever been the greatest agent in leading souls to the service of Cod, the campaign of prayer. Bray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He send forth la- borers into his harvest. -J. E. D. Timely Advice Be sensible. Be wholesome. Be honest with yourself and you will be honest with others. Make the best of life, smile and keep on smiling, derive such pleasure from life as propriety will allow, study something every day, attend school, indoor or outdoor, somewhere all the time, never become too old. too wealthy, too prominent, ECHO or too anything else to treat others as classmates. Old chap, the world is your Alma Mater, the best one you will ever have, the only one, in fact, you ever can have, and stake your last copper on the proposition that she is correct, o. k., and a mighty good place for a man with horse sense to make his home, invest his money and make a stir. -Balance Sheet. Parents Beware! The worst that can befall a boy is to have the liberty to stay out late at night. This is often a fatal privilege, because it is mostly during the night that all the mischief is planned and executed. The boys who are per- mitted the freedom of our public streets at all hours of the night are. the boys who fill -our prisons, and bring sorrow upon their relations and friends! All parents should keep their boys oi the streets and at home at night. Parents, look to it. Do not think that because the boys bring their earnings on Saturday night they are free to do as they please and go where they will. By no means. You are always supreme in the home, and God will hold you responsible for the conduct of your children as long as they live under your roof.-The Mes senger of the Most Precious Blood WHAT ABOUT A PAIR , My favorite dessert, quoth the young man, smacking his lips, is a date with a peach.

The news of the death of Father iller ,came as a great shock to us ll. We feel that in his death, the entral Catholic High School has lost most sincere friend, and the Dio- ese of Fort Wayne has lost a noble, elf-sacrificing priest, whose lofty eals and boundless zeal has fired ith enthusiasm and inspiration the any whose privilege it was to listen his words. The deceased possessed a person- lity that commanded respect and icited the admiration of all who new him. What he has done for us d for the Diocese of Fort Wayne, ly the angels can tell. Listing Father Miller as one of the ilders of the Central Catholic High chool, the C. C. H. S. Record says: ather Miller was teacher of Church istory and Philosophy at the school r four years, 1909-1913 .... A vorite of all whose privilege it was have him as instructor. During e days when friends of the rising hool were few. Father Miller did uch to keep the machinery going. word and example he-boosted the hool on every occasion. -A. F. M. .IOTTINGS Quite a number of students have been attending Mass and receiving Holy Communion daily during Lent. Let's see the same during the month of May. Out of respect to the memory of the Reverend William C. Miller, donor of the oratory medal since the founding of our school, there will be no orator- ical contest this year. One morning not long ago, Special Police Officer John Grey made the rounds of the classes with Brother Gilbert, who humorously introduced the jovial old gentleman to all the boys. Mr. Grey spoke encouragingly to the students of each class but at the same time informed them that if any boys were out of school unneces- sarily, he would make it his special duty to know the reason why. Some- one thought the officer was joking. Mr. Grey sought a reason. I?-. Our Orchestra furnished the music for the big banquet on St. Patrick's day, while our Glee Club rendered The Irish Jubilee for the Green, White and -Orange Club. Pat. Don- ahue and Tom McKiernan tried out at oratory on the same day while we iind William Foohey's name on another program for a violin selection. The best of all on the program was no school at C. C. H. S. Sunday, March 26, the J ournal-Ga- zette ran a half page cut of the stu- dent body of the Central Catholic High School. No wonder the Journal files are incomplete for that date. The last report cards were com- plete in every detail. A typewriter fills the blanks and hence more room for remarks in the margin. Better work is being done at night but there is still room for improvement s 1 20 THE ECHO GEORGE WASHINGTON HONORED AT C. C. H. S. i.1l. . Patriotic Program Given by Juniors -Dr. N. C. Ross Addresses Classmen. -l U George Washington's birthday was appropriately observed at the Central Catholic High School, where on the morning of February 22, at 10:30 o'clock, the Junior classmen presented a patriotic program. We know of no better way to re- port this .day's celebration than to quote verbatim the report in the Iii- diafna Catholic, as written by an eX- perienced journalist, Miss Helen May Irwin, who, for over twenty years, has been taking care of the Catholic news of the city both in the Journal- Gazette and the Indiana Catholic. Miss Irwin's report read: The celebration was featured by an ad- dress delivered by Dr. N. C. Ross, a member of the State Legislature. He prefaced it with congratulations to faculty and students on the excellence of their high school and the ability shown in the program honoring the Father of Our Country. Dr. Ross indicated that as the Church honors her saints, we as Americans also should love Washington, that if we' love America, we must also love and honor Washington. He maintained that no other American can command such admiration, and repeating the truism eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, indicating that America had to maintain eternal vigilance in order to protect her liberty from false friends within and enemies without. Emphasizing the duties of citizenship, he showed that the boys of today would be the men of tomorrow upon whom the duties of government would rest. He maintained that it was their duty to take up the fight and for coming generations to preserve the her- itage of liberty, which is ours. Expatiating on the importance 'of law-making Dr. Ross affirmed that lawlessness is incurred by en- actment of unjust laws, giving concrete ex-- amples. Dr. Nathaniel C. Ross, D. C., M. C.

This distinguishedi educator spent the entire afternoon in the school, passing from class to class during each period of recitationy f 1 THE in order to inspect the work being done. Father O'Donnell left Thurs- day afternoon for Indianapolis and Evansville, where he will make his annual visitation of the high schools conducted by the Brothers of Holy Cross. -Emmet Mills, 122. JUNIOR ELOCUTION CONTEST -l . Thomas McKiernan Awarded Gold Medal Presented by Rev. Thomas M. Conroy. On Wednesday afternoon, March 15, the annual Junior elocution con- test was held in the assembly room. Fathers Dillon, Fallon and Huemmer acted as judges of the contest. All the recitations were well rendered, and after much deliberation Father Dillon, acting chairman, commented on the excellency of the program, con- gratulated the contestants on their work and extended generous encour- agement. As the suspense was grow- ing greater every moment, Father Dillon remarked that but one could be the winner and that the judges after careful deliberation, weighing the merits of the work of each, had de- cided to give Thomas McKiernan first place. There was no selection for second and third places. In behalf of the students, Joe Clif- ford, captain-elect of the football team, responded, following the an- nouncement of the Winner, congratu- lating Thomas McKiernan. He briefly reviewed Tom's work at the C. C. H. S. for the past three years and point- ed out that the judges had made a most popular selection. Joe Clifford then led the school in giving the usual nine rahs for the victor, the donor of the medal, and the judges, and Hn- ished by giving fifteen rahs for Bro. ECHO 21 Daniel through whose untiring efforts the contest was carried out. l ,L THOMAS M,KIERNAN Thomas McKiernan is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. McKiernan, 808 Kinnaird avenue, a member of St. Patrick's church of which the Rev- erend Father Joseph F. Delaney is the devoted pastor. - The presentation of the Elocution Medal again evidences the great in- terest of Father Conroy in the Cen- tral High and the young men attend- ing the school. Last fall the Cathe- dral rector inaugurated the Essay Contest, awarding three prizes and announced that this contest will be an annual affair exclusively for Freshmen. Appointed by the Right Reverend Bishop to look after the improvements being made on the school building, Father Conroy has spared neither time nor effort to make our school one of the most up- to-date Catholic high schools in the state of Indiana. 22 THE The Junior class program was as follows: Selection ............

Gamel, who will be in Fort Wayne for some time to work in the interest of the campaign conducted here for boys by the Rotary Club. Mr. Gamel is an internationally known authority on boys' work and needs no special in- troduction in Fort Wayne. I am tremendously interested in this romantic business of building boyhood, for the romance of it is in the fact that in this hour, in the cra- dles of America, with the guardian angels of American motherhood bending. in their tender solicitude above, are wrapped up in the forces that, for the next 100 years, shall make or mar the destinies of America -and that means the destinies of the world. said Mr. Gamel during his last address at the C. C. H. S. The Rotary Club is to be congrat- ulated on its campaign in the interest of boys and above all in its selection ECHO of members for the committee on confidential interviews. -Kenneth Logan, '22, HONOR STUDENTS In order to stimulate our boys to greater efforts in all their classes, We started the Honor Roll in our last issue.

One of his first of- ficial acts was to change the wording of his ad in The Echo. Spinographically Speaking is the heading of a section in the R. C. C. Journal of Chiropractic. This sec- tion is conducted by G. Mark Kelley, D.C., M.C., who by the way is none other than our old friend Gordon M. Kelley of the good old days. Gordon is assistant clinic instructor as well as spinographic instructor at the Ross College in Fort Wayne. Vincent P. Reilly and John J. Welch of the class of '18 will be among the graduates of Purdue Uni- versity this spring. Donald Weber, '15, is down in Texas making a fortune in the oil business. Jerome Miller, '18, director of the Superior Typesetting Co., which pro- duces The Echo, got his old-timers together and played the Varsity the last basketball game of the season. Jerry didn't notice until after the game that his knee was injured. An examination revealed a torn tendon and a dislocated knee cap, which in- capacitated him for several days and kept him limping for weeks. P Martin C Bruff D Cleary, '21, is sure showing some class in the World of sports. There are many teams that would not deign to allow so young and beautiful a gentleman to umpire the world's championship game but the Original Celtics, look- ing at Bruff's innocent face, decided he would do his best to referee straight. Bruff has taken complete control of the local baseball park for the summer and promises to show us some real games. Joseph Finan is going big on the advertising staff of the newly estab- lished Fort Wayne branch of the In- ternational Harvesting Company.

It has just been announced that he has been selected as one of four editors-in-chief of the Notre Dame Law Reporter. He is al- so associate editor of Notre Dame's annual, The Dome, and The Scholastic, a week- ly. The law magazine is published quar- terly. Besides his position as editor, Mr. Hu- guenard is also president of the Fort Wayne Club at the University, a member of the Lawyer's Club and is prominently active in student affairs in general. Before entering Notre Dame he had graduated from the Central Catholic High School in this city. Aaron H.

Hayes, of the class of 1919, we found the following article in the col- umns of the Indiana Catholic some time ago: FORT WAYNE NOTRE DAME STUDENT HEARD Electrical Production,' was the subject upon which Cornelius J. Hayes, 809 Eliza street, Fort Wayne, recently addressed the Chamber of Commerce at the University of Notre Dame. Mr. Hayes outlined the prog- ress in electricity within recent years and showed its importance in considering com- mercial advancement. Mr. Hayes is a student in foreign com- merce at the University, a member of the Fort Wayne and Indiana clubs, and grad- uates next year. He is also a secretary to Prof. Jose Corona, instructor in Spanish, and is prominent in student activities. Judging by the following article, Florian Arnold is working every bit as hard at Purdue University as he did when he was with us: C. C. H. S. GRADUATE IS HONORED AT PURDUE Florian Arnold, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Arnold, 2819 South Harison street, a mem- ber of the Class of '21 at the Central Cath- olic High School, Fort Wayne, and now a Freshman at Purdue, is on the honor roll at the University. He is one of ten students out of 500 in the department of practical mechanics whose average was 95 per cent or better. His record at Central High was ex- cellent and his percentages in class work high. Congratulation, Florian. Keep up the good work. Apart from the sport page article, the Journal-Gazette carried the fol- lowing item the morning after the mission game: BROWNSON HALL FIVE MEETS CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL Brownson Hall quintet, interhall champi- ons of Notre Dame University, met the Cen- ECHO tral Catholic High quintet in Fort Wayne Saturday evening in the annual game for the benefit of the Holy Cross missions in Bengal. Although battling valiantly to the iinish, the team work and shooting of the visitors surpassed that of the locals and combined in giving the Notre Dame men the victory b-y a score of 39 to 21.- Brother Allan, C. S. C., prefect of Brown- son Hall at the University, accompanied the quintet, Burns, Coffey, Reardon, Murphy and Collins. The following Fort Wayne stu- dents attending Notre Dame also accompa- nied the party: Richard App, Frank Doriot, Robert Gordon, Herman Centlivre, Donald McDonald, Raymond Stephan, George Ham- ilton and Clifford Ward. The return trip to the University was made on Sunday after- noon. , -...- The Mission Game The fourth annual mission game for the benefit of the Holy Cross Mission in India was played this year against the Brownson Hall team of Notre Dame, and while the amount realized did not reach the figure of last year, it came close to what was antici- pated. The proceeds over the expenses were 310200, and a check to cover the amount was sent to Reverend Michael Mathis, C. S., C., editor of The Bengalese. Father Mathis will apply our contribution towards the building of the Foreign Mission Seminary at Detroit, and a tablet mentioning the con- tribution of the Central Catholic High, School will be suspended in one of the cor- ridors of the new building. Thanks are due to the members of the Super Six and the M. I. X. sextettes who proved a big drawing card in the opening game, and who were active in selling tick- etsg to Mr. Cleary who annually donates a thousand tickets for the game, and to the young ladies of St. Augustine's Academy and the boys of the Cathedral grade school, who were behind the game in the matter of selling tickets. The boys in school who sold four or more tickets are the following: Gerald Libbing, 103 Robert Gerard, 93 Austin Centlivre, 85 William Foohey, 7 3 George Gordon, 53 James DeWald, 6, Joseph Clifford, 55 Jos-' eph Perrey, 5, James Belot, 5, James Kel- ker, 53 Vincent Cullen, 55 Robert Passinop 4, Aurelius Fink, 4, Emmett Mills, 45 and- Raphael Perrey, 4.

LUW Rent LOW Prices It Will Pay You to Read Every Ad. so THE Joseph Luley, '21, is making a great hit at Notre Dame with his cartoons and drawings. He is going big in the Juggler as well as in Journalism. To Those Who Would Study Journalism To some people the business of the newspaper man seems a sort of mov- ing picture occupation. They think he spends an indefinite time, perhaps an hour a day, writing the news in the systematic formal language of the press. In an editorial of the Sat- urday Evening Post we flnd this com- ment: The man in public life often mistakes the broad and easy path of propaganda for the hard and narrow one of impartial journalism. It must be realized that while the writ- ing itself is a comparatively easy task, the responsibility of molding the minds of countless readers requires both training and ability. To know how, to know what and to know when to give to the public the world's gos- sip, the world's trouble and the world's joy is a task for strong men only. The worth of the journalistic pro- fession lies not in the work itself but in the attendant associations. If any man learns human nature better than another that man is the reporter, and upon this knowledge of your fellow man depends, so I think at least, your success. I am not claiming any very su- perior qualities for this profession, but I would say that if a man desires a liberal education and a firm founda- tion on which to build his future suc- cess, he will do well to take a course in journalism, which is practically a Litt. B. course, and supplement this with 'a year or two spent as a re- porter. -Joseph F. Lnley, 121. ECHO ,ll- v'ffg22 I i - -ffl YE Rv lg .

He made his discovery during a geom- etry period while trying to find the reason for the difference in, his in- terests in a polygon and a popular person on Broadway. We mention this discovery first, not because it is the most important event since Feb- ruary, but because it kindled a few sparks of life in Uncle Charley. During the last few weeks Roussey, our rubber man and social bug, held the spotlight when he recalled some ancient wheezes during the narration period in English class. Every other Friday at a couple o'clock in the afternoon we hold de- bates. The most interesting one so far was about the proposed Fort Wayne, stockyards. McGrath and Swift, who spend their time many miles away from the east end, were strongly in favor of the stockyards, while Belot and Pauley, who are not so favorably situated, harangued against the question. The afiirmatives won. Just recently Mike Hogan and Honestus Flick had a great fling on capital punishment. Flick insinuated that one of his opponents was respon- sible for the disappearance of his brief, and as a result he was helpless. Hogan waxed wroth when Chairman Roussey got things Ubawled up, and sat down in a heap of disgust. Spe- cial Orator Parrot came to the rescue and won the debate, although Kelker and Eckert, the negatives, and the class in general thought that the judges were bribed. Other questions that were threshed out were the Sol- dier Bonus Bill, The Ten Year Na- val Holiday, and Co-education. The class held its own in athletics this year with Bushman, Graf and Kelker members of the Varsity bas.- ketball team. The Wolverines, the soph entry in the Junior Basketball League, lifted the championship. Sorg started the latest fad among us. He got into the habit of wearing stiff collars, no, not celluloid ones, and while a few fell in line, the most of us are still wondering why he considers- it necessary to wear the sand paper on his neck. At any rate, with the coming of spring, and perhaps as 2. result of his lead, flannel shirts have been discarded, and now if you see a dressed up dude coming out of C.

Miesrjzzlrzz FRESHMEN As we go to print one of the great topics of conversation is the organiza- tion of a Junior League in Baseball. Six teams could be easily picked from over seventy Freshmen. The Fresh- men Independents represent the class at present, and a league would help find players to strengthen the cla-ss.,team. In selling tickets for the Bengal Mission game the Freshmen were on top, and intend to keep the top notch for future contests. Q I One of the big undertakings of the Freshmen was the establishment of a splendid four-page weekly paper, The Bourgeois. To increase the circulation each copy is specially numbered and at Easter time a num- ber will be drawn. The subscriber having the copy corresponding to the number drawn will receive the best baseball that money can buy. It is rumored that the ball will bear Babe Ruth's Special Signature. The Freshmen have a combination of the liveliest class officers in school, and' the members of the Bourgeois staff are overflowing with pep. The Bourgeois catering to the whims of the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors, bid fair to become the school weekly, and nearly every boy in C. C. H. S. comes across with his three cents for one or five for two copies each week. The Freshman artist has his eyes open for specials and caught Fergu- son one pleasant winter evening in a typical attire and presented his as follows: The hundred and sixty-five pound Romeo of the Sophomore class is said to be killing them right and left with the 'goosy' on his hair.

C. H. S. had ever had. This was due mainly to the untiring efforts and interests of Mr. Frank Flaherty, better known to the fel- lows as Big Frank, who took the basket- ball team in hand, and after a few days of practice had drilled the members so Well that they were able to make the Alumni bow to a 67 to 9 score. Through his con- tinlfous driving the team developed into a strong offensive and defensive combination in which the school took great pride. The record of fourteen victories and six defeats, three only by high school teams, against the strongest quintets in this section, shows the caliber of the squad. For some unknown reason, however, it was evident 'as the sea- son progressed that the team played best away from home, only one game having been lost on foreign courts. Julian Koehl, captain of the squad, played center again this year, and as in the two previous seasons, he was the highest scorer on the team. He played a slashing game, and was extremely hard to stop. His serv- ices will be greatly missed next year. Coach Flaherty was exceedingly fortunate in having three good forwards in Haley, Norbert Koehl, and Bushman. Haley and Bushman were the fastest players to per- form on our court this season, and they seemed inexhaustible. Pink Koehl was the coolest man on the squad, and he had the knack of being in the right place at the right time. His three baskets against Fort Wayne High brought the championship to us. The work of our guards, Centlivre, Graf, Hanson, and Kelker, was regarded by many to be the outstanding feature of the team's play throughout the season. Uncle Charles Graf at back guard was a mountain on de- fense, and his ability to pick shots out of the higher atmosphere saved many points against us. His free throws were the de- ciding points in several games. He was the second highest scorer on the team, a rare thing for a back guard. Centlivre got the call for floor guard, and he proved a con- stant worry to opposing forwards. Hanson and Kelker were always reliable when called upon. Captain Koehl, Haley, and Hanson are Seniors, but with the five remaining mem- bers of the team available for next year, followers of the team have reason to pre- dict even greater things next season. We can't pass without a word of apprecia- tion for William Foohey and Emmett Mills, who took care of the gate and who seemed to possess magnetic properties. They saw to it that the season, successful from a sport View point, .Was also satisfactory finan- cially. , GAMES ANGOLA HIGH, FEBRUARY 3. Angola evened the two-game series by. taking the one played on our court, 23 to 19. The boys from the northern part of the state displayed some fine shooting dur- ing the first half and ran up a 20 to 8 lead. As on so many other occasions this year, the Centrals came back with a rush in the second period and scored eleven points to their opponents' three, only to fall short of victory by a margin of two baskets. Graf with one field goal and five free throws was our high scorer. A FORT WAYNE HIGH, FEBRUARY 7. ' Our defeat by Angola was soon forgotten when Coach Flaherty's men took the first game from Fort Wayne High, 14 to 13, 111 the series for the city championship. The Centrals were slight favorites, but the Blue and White soon made it evident to the seven hundred fans that they were out to win, and in the first half ran up a 10 to 6 lead, eight of their points having been made by Cap' tain Hosey.

The joy of the Central enthusiasts was short-lived, how- ever, when Captain Hosey came back with a field goal. Then Bushman broke loose and tossed in an overhead shot that won the game. Fort Wayne scored on a free throw. Although the last three minutes of the game were scoreless, they were the most ex- citing of the evening. Both teams resorted to long shots, but they rolled tantalizingly off the rim of the basket. Graf, Centlivre, and Bushman were our luminaries, while Hosey of Fort Wayne lived up to his reputation and scored eleven of his team's thirteen points. C. C. H. S.

When Monroe High came here this year we expected to avenge our defeat of last year, but the Adams County champions showed even greater versatility than they did last season, and they went home with a 37 to 13 victory. The Centrals by their work in the first ten minutes of the contest seemed destined to win, but the hard game with Fort Wayne High a few nights earlier probably left them in a weakened condition, and the Monroe lads had everything their own way in the second half. FORT WAYNE HIGH, FEBRUARY 15. In a game which was so exciting that the spectators did not fully realize that the con- test was over until several moments after the gun had sounded, the C. C. H. S. de- feated Fort Wayne High for the second time this year, by a score of 18 to 16, at St. Paul's Hall, thereby regaining the city championship which was lost last year. Graf started the scoring by making two free throws, and N. Koehl connected for a field goal before Fort Wayne High got started. Then Hosey counted on two free throws and a fielder. Meanwhile Graf scored on four fre-e throws. With the score 8 to 4 against them, the Blue and White started a rally in the last three minutes of the first period, and the Fort Wayne cap- tain registered two field goals and two free throws. Centlivre pierced the rim with a long shot, and the half ended 10 all. Graf gave his teammates the lead in the second half on a free throw, until the fielder of Benehough put his team in front for the first time during the game. . Pink Koehl came back with another counter, but almost immediately Hosey tied the score on a free throw.

Without the services of Captain Koehl, who sustained a fractured 'thumb in the Monroe game, there was some doubt about the outcome of the game.at Toledo, but everything panned, out gloriously, and Fla- herty's boys came back with a 15 to 1,1 vic- tory. Graf worked at center, and Haley played floor guard. Bushman and Pink Koehl won the victory for us while Hanson, Graf and Centlivre kept the Toledo Cen- trals away from the basket. Bushman scored three from the field, and N. Koehl four. BROWNSON HALL, FEBRUARY 25. In tackling the Brownson Hall quintet, champions of the Interhall League at Notre Dame, the Central youngsters went out of their class, and were defeated, 39 to 21, 1n a very interesting game, although the out- come was not in doubt after the second half got under way. The visitors had in their line-up several all-state men, and the1I' weight and experience proved too much for the Centrals, whose passing and floorworli, however, was the best we have seen th1S season. The varsity jumped into a four-point lead at the beginning, but the college lads soon pushed to the front, and led 17 to 11 at the end of the first half. Burns and Coffey, each with six baskets, were the high scorers of the evening, while the floor work of Haley was the outstanding feature of the Central's play. . l I I 1 I I X w I I J . A. C.

On March 3rd the varsity left for a two days' trip into Ohio, meeting St. Rose High that night, and the St. John's H. S. of Del- phos the following day. The St. Rose game, proclaimed by huge posters to be The Pre- mier Cage Classic of the Year, was a fast and interesting contest, although the very slippery floor made it somewhat of a skat- ing match. The Centrals won, 28 to 17, be- fore a crowd of 1,000 spectators. In the first few seconds of play Graf made a long field goal, followed soon after by a free throw, and F1aherty's boys' were oi. Captain Koehl celebrated his return to the line-up by making five goals from the field. Bushman made three, Graf two, and N. Koehl one. ST. JOHN'S HIGH, DELPHOS, MARCH 4. Before another crowd estimated at 1,000 people, the Centrals defeated the St. J ohn's quintet of Delphos by a score of 31 to 18. The Delphos contest was the one for which Coach Flaherty had pointed his boys, since the Buckeyes had won twenty games in as many starts. The game was hard-fought but with the offensive and defensive cogs of our machine running very smoothly, there was little trouble in handing the Buckeyes their first defeat of the season. Captain Koehl shook the net six times, Bushman four, and Pinky Koehl three. '13 VARSITY, MARCH 6. The Varsity of '13, the first quintet to represent the school, intends to defeat our team next year, and then retire from bas- ketball after ten years of activity in the ranks of the Alumni. Their showing this year was the best yet, and it was only after a very hard battle that the younger lads won, 23 to 18. The game was the most enjoyable hour of basketball our court had seen this sea- son, Jerry Miller, Louie Centlivre, and Steve DeWald capering around with as much vim as any other players on the floor, and only on a few occasions was time taken out. The first half ended 11 to 7, and in the second period the younger generation was fought to a stand-still. C. C. H. S. cncncmia '13 VARSITY. Haley ............ ..... ..... L . Centlivre W.

The Junior League was the largest and the most successful in the history of the school, and the schedule was completed with- out a hitch. All the teams performed cred- itably, although it was the first year of bas- ketball for many of the players, and a one hundred per cent improvement was appar- ent as the season progressed. The Diamonds won the second half of the schedule, thereby earning the right to meet the Wolverines, victors in the first series, for the championship. The game was hotly contested with the lead changing hands on many occasions. At the endbof the regular period the score was tied, and in the five minute overtime period the Wolverines scored two free throws which won the game for them, 17 to 15. The standing of the teams at the close of the season was: . FIRST HALF.

Wilkinson wants to be a policeman so he can ride on the street cars and go to the movies without purchasing a ticket. Arcola Smith is no relation to Floyd across the street. So don't think he is a partner even if he does eat and sleep over there. What makes the Seniors wonder who will eat? Cull suggests that we ought to feed carbon to the big four since carbon is a great reducing agent. The next time Jack Dempsey comes to town we would suggest that Whit- aker make a date with him. Loos made a new resolution. He says he is going to attend twice in a while from now on. McEvoy is using a new brand of hair oil. He says she likes the new ointment better. Edward Flood wants to know if a Campbell with a case of Berghoff can sit in a Morris chair that could Waltz on the Harbor at the mouth of the river Jordan during the Flood, and if so would Parrot sing at the same timel? The Juniors are talking about a visit to Boyle's and Fitzgerald's farms again this year. If talk means anything they plan on having two swell picnics. If you want anything spread rap- idly don't tell the world, just whisper it to McKiernan. -i111 If Fields experiments with his ford as he was instructed to do, it's good- bye ford and a wreath for Clarence. Foohey has been devoting his time to music so as to compete with Schnei- der in all lines. It is a pity Clifford did not stick with the Senior class two years ago. He could torment Koehl more conven- iently. On the other hand, Koehl says he is thankful for small favors.

Heard over the Party Line: I just love to dance with Schneider. Yes, that is a good way to keep him from playing the saxaphonef' Logan finds time to get his general mathematics since he got soaked a dozen times for not getting the' work. 'Tis strange how quick some folks do get next to things. Huguenard, our chemist, tried to get a free hour by filling the room with the fumes of artificial ancient eggs. It failed. The teacher closed the windows and doors and went on with the class. Huguenard is on the road to recovery. Jimmie Belot will soon be a fin- ished dancer, said Mr. G. Trier not long ago. According to the papers Jimmie was nearly finished-for sure. -.... Doyle and Roy like the school at- mosphere so well that they work in the study-hall from 3:15 until dark. Would that some others would inhale the same atmosphere. The prefect said unto a Freshman who was just exactly twenty minutes late, How comest thou to be so late this morning ? Unto the prefect the thoughtful boy responded: I washed my ears this morning. ' ..i..---11 ' Carl Schiffli is very much interest- ed in Virgil since he found so many references to Summit in the book. John Hedekin has decided to be- come an orator. He never misses a chance to speak in the class so that he can speak to the class. J Alfred Junk, the big noise in the or- chestra last year, could not bear to be away from C. C., so he returned last month to complete his ,search for knowledge. He had no difficulty in getting back his position at the traps,n and since his arrival there has been a notable improvement in the or-2 chestra.

Now, said he, running his hand over the back of my head after he had attended to my other needs, how do you want your hair fixed ? In silence and without humor, said I. I am approaching my fiftieth year in this world, and since thirty I have been as you see me now. In the course of those twenty intervening years I have heard about every joke on the subject of baldness that-the human mind has been able to con- ceive at least fifty thousand times. ' HI guess that's right, said he. You are pretty bald, ain't you ? I am, and I am not at all ashamed of it, I returned. My baldness has been honestly acquired. I have not lost my hair in dissipation or by fool- ish speculation, but entirely through generosity of spirit. I have given my hair to my children. Gee! he ejaculated with fervor. You must have a devil of a large family! 00 So you graduated from a barber college? What was your college yell? Cut his lip, cut his jaw, leave his face raw, raw raw !

Treasurer JOSEPH PETER BOPP KKEapp!J Perhaps some of you have seen a small boy with the airs of a professor reaching school at seven or seven-thirty in the morning-well, that was our Little Joe. Joe was an ideal student always pulling and plugging to get ahead of his class, to boost his school and to support all the athletic events. His hobby is gas engines, so we presume that he expects to be an engineer some day, although he has never committed himself to say what he is going to be. We are sure of one thing, however, and that is that whatever he takes up, with his persevering disposition he will overcome any difficulties that may arise, and make a success of whatever he attempts. Although he may seem rather hard to get acquainted with, yet after you have once known him, you can fully appreciate his sterling character and admirable qualities. If silence were golden, 'Little Joe' would be a millionaire. There's so much good in the worst of us And so rhuch bad tu the best of us It hardly behoofves any of us To talk about the rest. of us. WALTER CONSTANTINE DICKERSON rcDiCk::. VV alter Constantine Joseph Dickerson, better known as Dick or Ivory, has a hobby of working. He is a basketball player of no mean ability, although he never found time to play on any other than class teams. He is treasurer of the Senior Class and finds time suflicient to keep his accounts straight. Dick has had a drug store job for the last five years, and can hardly leave his job long enough to get a higher educa- tion. He has decided, however, to study chemical engineering. He says he wants to put everything he learns to practical use and will become famous some day no doubt. Dick received his early education in the grade schools of Dixon, Illinois, and St. Paul's parochial school, Fort Wayne. Tell me not in mournful uzwubers, Life is but an empty dream! For the soul is dead that slufmbers, And things are not what they seem. -' - -- L 1 T F J, J A 1 I CLARENCE EUGENE FIELDS 6KS,i?,L7! Clarence James Joseph Eugene is the favorite of our class. Besides his long list of names we have tacked on Sin, Sand Bags, Sin Bad and several others. Clarence was a member of the Orchestra and Mandolin Club, but quit the former after a few weeks because the other fel- lows could not keep time with him. Clarence is inclined to journalism and hence started three different school papers, the G. O. P. , The Grag- godocio and the HS. S. S. , all of which he abandoned to give his whole time tothe council publication of the Imperial Orderiof Owls. His hobbies are ping pong and chess, and his plan for the immediate future is to go to college, and for the distant future a beautiful wife, an ample in- come and a large family. There is for me somewhere a worthy place, Where I may work in harvest yields of earth, And reap the grain that golden grows apace- Angels will take the sheaves and know their worth. JOSEPH CORNELIUS FITZGERALD ICJ. C33 Joseph C. Fitzgerald was born July 23, 1905, and since that day has never been known to frown. He has attended school at St. Paul's, Marion, St. Mary's, Tiptong Jasper College, J as-h per, and now leaves C. C. H. S., to take up his studies at Purdue University, in the hope of be- coming an engineer. Joe has very little faith in humanity, for he is the only Senior who goes on record as never meeting his best friend. He 1S a member of St. Mary's parish, and lives at the best corner of the Randall and Maysville cross- roads. Joe is the only Senior who can boast of being a classmate of every student in school, as he is the only one who has had a class with each class this year.

He has played the violin in the orchestra for tive years, and has dabbled in class basketball as well. For three years he has been a diligent Echo worker and is Editor-in-Chief of the 1921-1922 publication. He has always been an athletic booster, and has served as student-manager of the Varsity team. His intention is to tackle Notre Dame next year. His closest friend is Snibo g his hobbies, music and basketballg his pet expression, absolutely , and his disposition., pleasant.

Bill's activities include Varsity football for three years, Varsity basketball in his Senior year, position on several class teams, etc. He is a mem- ber of the Letter Club, Athletic Association, Glee Club, and has taken an active part in school activities of all kinds. His hobby is athletics and his ambition is to be a journalist, for Which pro- fession he hopes to prepare himself at Notre Dame. He thinks the C. C. H. S. is the best school in the land, and is ever ready to boost its fellows and its teachers. Bill is a prolific verse writer, and a shark at oral English.

C. H. S. the second week of September from the Fort Wayne High School. His hobbies are football and bas- ketball and he gained a berth on both teams. He is an active member of the Triangle A. C., and was awarded a silver loving cup as champ in ten- nis. Kate's mind is unsettled but he thinks he would like to become a doctor. He plans to go to college but his mind is not made up to which. His only regret is that he hadn't been at the C. C. H. S. four years instead of only one. He works in the circulation department of the J ournal-Ga- zette. Go to it Kate. He lives at 427 Wallace street. He has attended the Hanna and Fort Wayne High School. His favorite expression is Let's go riding. Somebody said that it couldwft be done But he with a chuckle replied That Maybe it couldnt' but he would be one Who would'h't say so till he tried. JOHN BERNARD HEDEKIN CCRed!7 h John Hedekin, otherwise known as Red, blew into the school with a gang of eighth graders live years agop Red is a great lover of basketball, having played as star forward on his various class teams for the past five years. Who's got the Latin? is his daily question. In the sciences he is a shark, and spends much of his time experi- menting with dangerous explosives. John is sec- retary to the Imperial Order of Owls. By a pop- ular Vote taken a short time ago, Red won the beauty contest by receiving three-fifths of all the votes. Our beautiful boy has great hopes for the future. He plans on a college course and aims to become a soldier of fortune.

Joe belongs to the Cathedral parish and was a student in the Cathe- dral for his grade work. He entered the high school but after one year here he left for St. John's College, Toledo, Ohio, where he spent two years, and got mixed up in Greek which he had to continue when he got back here. His ambition is to get the rat that ate his lunch, and his hobby is translating Greek. He has an ear for music and gets out of Math once a week to take his music lesson. When he wants to strengthen his arguments he simply says: Ask the Dodgers. Best pleasures are like poppies spread, You seize the flowers, its bloom is shed, Or like a snowfall in the river, 1 A moment white, tlien melt forever. JULIAN JOHN KOEHL t Kfpudff 'Tis rumored that many years ago Julian was a member of the stout class and went by the name of Pudding, This we have shortened un- til today it is just common Pud. He hails from St. Peter's parish, hence the name St. Peter's Pride. From his entrance three years ago he has been the mainstay in basketball and football. For the past two years he was captain of the basketball team and last year led the football squad. Pud seems to possess poetic fancies, and hence an idealist and a lover of a thing of beauty and joy forever. His Saturdays he spends at Allgeier's wrestling groceries, keeping in trim for the Freshman football team of his favorite college next fall. He was class presi- dent and has the record of securing the greatest number of Echo subscribers for the past year. Luck to you, Pud. All.the Latin I can construe is Amo, I love.

William Kenneth Thomas Foohey Logan, nephew and at the same time cousin of William Logan Foohey, is a member of St. Patrick's par- ish, and an ancient as far as the school goes. Along with Haley and Hanson he joined our class last September. His ambitions for the immediate future are to see as much of the world as he can during vacation and then to take up a college course in Science. Being an admirer of the stars and yet harboring a desire to be an authority ion moon, he has a hard job deciding whether he Wants to take up astronomy or analytical chemistry. Trust no future, howe'er pleasant! Let the dead past bury its dead! Act,-act in the living present! Heart within ,and God o'erhead! PAUL ANDERSON LUCAS Luke Enough said. Just look at the happy youth and you well know why the Senior room is so bright. Luke comes in from Governor McCray's farm every morning and is one of the first to arrive at the school. Although he has never taken an active part in athletics he is an ardent sup- porter of the Varsity at all times. He hasn't given out his plans for the future, yet from the Way he attacks his lessons we feel sure of his success. He came to us in the Sophomore year, and is a product of the Dominican Sisters of St. Henry's Academy, Vernon, Michigan. His favor- ite study is Science and from the marks he gets, this shining star of the class may be a scient1st before we know it. And the stately ships go on - To their haven under the hill: But O for the touch of a vanished hand And the sound of a voice that is still. JOHN EMMETT MILLS E fCEm!! ' Emmett's first year was comparatively quiet. All the honors he succeeded in annexing was the distinction of being the largest Freshman ever seen. His Sophomore year increased his renown a little. He made the class basketball team, where despite his size, he made a splendid showing. As a Junior he played on the Varsity in the position of right guard, and the only terms that will de- scribe his work are mountainous and prodigious. This pastyear Emmet has been too busy to take part in athletics, but he was a big factor in mak- ing the Echo at success as far as advertising goes. As a tennis player he has few rivals of his size. Emmett was originally a member of the Irish gang, but later removed to St. Paul's parish. Always arrayed even as the lilies he is a great kidder of the fair ones, for everybody loves this fat man. Emmett is a member of the Glee Club, the Km's, and the Big Four. He has ambitions to become a salesman, and judging from his size and line of Blarney, we predict that he will be a huge success. Em, we tender you the best wishes of the class. The ability to smile at all times, in alll places, is the jewel of success. HOWARD THOMAS MARTIN How-ie Howard Thomas Paul Martin, otherwise Howie, may be seen every day rushing' into school about sixteen seconds before the bell rings, and leaving again at 3:00 p. m. His smiling face tells one immediately that he is an Irishman, even if one did not know that he hails from St. Pat- rick's. Howie has one great ambition-to get wise, and he shows it by traveling from desk to desk to compare notes, during study period and free time. He has worn a perpetual smile since Wednesday, April 19, 1904, and by the looks of things the smile is good for at least a hundred years more. His plans for the future are to get a good job-be wealthy-marry and be happy. Summer is coming, summer is coming.

His school career was a varied one, as he as attended schools in Waterloo and Ashley, In- ianag Cleveland, Ohiog and finally spent the last o years with us here at old C. C. H. S. Like Joe instle, Carl is a Jesuit product and hence a onsistent student. His activities in athletics akes his name prominent among us. . He has mbitions to become mayor of Summit and wants o own a farm and raisea the biggest corn in eKalb County. A thorough student himself it as not uncommon when a few members of his lass would assemble early and would be without prefect, to hear him say: Come on, boys, let's et to work. If the first warning had no effect, ll fooling would stop at the words: If this don't top somebody is going to get hurt. 'How jocund did he drive his teain afield? ow bowed the woods beneath his sturdy stroke? JosEPH FRANCIS SCHNEIDER Snibo Joe, who got his first glimpse of the world in afayette, Ind., came to Fort Wayne when he as about ten. He came to the C. C. H. S. preps rom the Precious Blood seventh grade and ever ince his entrance he has been a leader among udents. In his Freshman year, besides taking p cartooning and glasses, he marched off with e Latin medal. He has been an Echo worker nd also collaborated on the Soph Daily Squeaky nd the Junior Jazzy Journal. He has startled e school the last two years by his clarinet and xophone playing in the school orchestra. His obbies are music and athletics and whenever you e a crowd debating or practicing,.it 1S safe to t that Snibo is in the middle of 1t.

Sep- tember 3 saw twenty-six of us start the trail to knowledge. We landed in the study hall and there met a bunch of Sophomore auctioneers selling off old books. We took all the bargains we could find and then went to the stationery store and allowed Brother William to give us credit on some new books. Before the day was over we found out our teachers: Brother Owen, English and Science, Brother William, Algera, Brother Daniel, Latin, Brother Exupere, History. Two days later we elected class offi- cers, and these have had an easy time since. After Christmas our good con- duct placed us in the nice room that the Seniors had up till this time oc- cupied, and Brother Owen came to preside during the study period. There are a few specialists in our class. Schneider got glasses to make his cartoons look better fto himself 1.1 Fields is chiefly interested in finance. Gladieux, Eggeman, Cliiord, McCar- thy and Mills are never without lofty thoughts. Foohey, Roth, Schneider,1 Bopp and Eggeman are bidding forf the class medal.

LAFONTAINE BROTHER PANHEL' C- S Superintendent P1 IIICIPJ 14 THE As Sophomores School started with a whirl this year. In the Sophomore solar system there are twenty-three planets. But we miss a few: Ralph Girard, Frank English, Charlie Dinnen, and Emmett Kelly. On September 8, we held elections for class officers. John Hedekin was elected president 5 Joe Schneider, sec- reeary, and Bernard Kinstle, treas- urer. We couldn't afford to have the other members lose their old jobs. Still, Fields doesn't play his kazoo so much any more. Ask him why. Cliiord is still the class Fat Man, though Deininger and Mills are close seconds. Johnny Miller is class advo- cate for the Wets. Bishop, Girard and a few others still trip the light fantastic. We have organized a strong foot- ball team, but outside of that our class activities are few. Hedekin began his presidential career by calling a meeting the day after his election. But when 3:30 came we forgot all about the meeting, and were just scrambling out of the door when Brother William arrived and held a meeting of his own. We discussed various propositions in geometry. The meeting adjourned at 4:15 p. m.-Christmas, 1919. As Sophomores The Sophomores have formed a basketball team which is one of the best Junior fives in the city. Their new shirts of maroon with the class monogram in purple and gold they consider the best in the school. All the members of the team are enthu- siastic over their success and are try- ing hard to make their five one to be . ECHO reckoned with, especially as they now claim the 120-pound championship of Fort Wayne. There has been some talk of a movement to depose Red Hedekin from his throne, and to elect a new ruler. Fields and Dickerson have been mentioned as candidates. Gerard, who is fast becoming known in athletics, would, we think, fill the position very well. He was indeed.of- fered the position of captain on the basketball team, but very graciously refused the proffered dignity. Mills has returned to help swell our ranks after being several weeks -on the sick list. He assures us that he, lost twenty-four pounds: we think that if he lost twenty-four more he. would be able to squeeze throughtheu door without any assistance, and per-ul haps leave room for Bopp to enter with him. A Lucas, our new classmate, has come, to take Eggeman's place and he doesi it very well. Jim Belot has for some time, deigned to pay us his weekly visit.!. The authorities, however, are on hisl trail just now, and it looks as if hen will become a regular member of our class from now on.-February, 19205. ...1.1..i1 1 As Sophomores The Sophomore basketball team ended its season coming out with the 120-125 pound championship of Fort Wayne. The team had its picture taken recently. Captain McCarthy. Hedekin and Clifford occupy the front row and Dickerson, Jauch and Mills, especially the last named, help to fill up the rest of the picture.

Cliiord was laid up for a few days, and Bill Foohey hasn't been able to return yet. Still as long as Bunnie Kinstle remains with us we won't give way to despair. Besides, we have Ivory, Creampuis, Smart Alex, Virginia, Lenine, Trots- ky Bolsheviki, Cfrizz, Baby Elephant, Sinbad, our kazoo musician, and other notable personages to keep us com- pany. We don't as a rule approve such nicknames, but just now they call to mind the following brief story: On one of his numerous adventures, Sinbad the Sailor, playing his kazoo to charm the hours away, went riding on his favorite Baby Elephant through the dominions of Lenine Trotsky Bolsheviki. Though he was the king of the long-haired tribe of wild men, he received Sinbad very hospitably and introduced him to his beautiful Queen Virginia, who had hair longer than Lenine himself. She invited him to sit at a delicious ban- quet set out on an ivory table. They had a toothsome meal on a little fat bunnie, and then creampuis were served for desert. But while Sinbad was making love to Virginia fLenine was looking the other way? little Smart Alex, the queen's page, stole the puffs. Lenine noted how inflated Alex's abdomen had become, and after missing the desert at once guessed the cause. He instantly or- dered Little Boy Bopp to lead in his dancing bear Grizzly, and fed Alex to it for breakfast. Sinbad was so af- fected by this that he quite lost his appetite. Later on he found some consolation in the touching harmonies which he so well knew how to draw from his kazoo.-May, 1920. E CHO Q As Juniors As usual, school started the day after Labor Day. We spent the morn- ing cheating the Sophomores on second-hand books and getting cheat- ed by the Seniors. Most of our former Sophomore celebrities are back with us but we miss Jauch, Deininger, Gerard, and Belot. Fitzgerald and Schiffii are the only newcomers. A few days after school opened we organized for elections, and Clifford after a successful campaign became president and Kinstle, secretary- treasurer. A short time ago Clifford resigned the presidential chair and since then the president's duties have fallen on Kinstle, who is now overbur- dened with the three offices. At the first class meeting called We decided to get monograms in the shape of oc- tagons just to remind us that we took geometry last year. We have been dispossessed of the room that we have occupied the last two years. It has been given to the Seniors and we have been put in the former Senior room. The old Sophomore Daily Squeak was reorganized and published under the new name of the J'amlor's Jazzy J ofarnalj' which was later replaced by the Junior World. Some look down on us because we are the smallest class in the school, but we believe in quality, not quan- tity.-December, 1920. il..-ii As Juniors Monday, January 3rd, found Aus back in our places after two weeks' Christmas vacation. After some ad- vice had been given to us, we all tooki .w I THE E CHO W 2 years ago HS C1383 W CD th HS Graduates 18 THE ECHO a resolution to settle down to hard work. Our class takes great interest in Chemistry experiments on Friday afternoons, but some of our more delicate members, like Dickerson and Mills, find it hard to stand the differ- ent gases. Cicero has a strong hold on us, as we are infected by his first two orations, and we are wondering that if the writing of them affected him as much as the translation did us how he ever survived to write more than two. We are sorry he did. Our room has been flooded with class papers, since Fields' greatest ambition is to be a noted editor. We have our doubts as to whether or not he will succeed, as he has already tried to publish four papers, each one of which was a failure. We wish to correct the statement made in the last number of the Echo that the J1,mior's Jazzy J ournalv had given way to the Junior World. The Junior World never was published but the Jazzy Journal makes its appearance each Wednesday with its regular news features. Some of our members are becom- ing famous. Schifiii has developed a mania for Spanish, Koehl and Mills for Commercial Arithmetic, while Dickerson stars in all classes. Mills as the new class president adds much weight to his arguments. Foohey's monthly oration is, Friends, Juniors, Classmates, pay me your coin. -Feb- ruary, 1921. As Juniors As the Seniors insist on patroniz- ing a hot-dog stand instead of go- ing to the Summit City for the annual feed, we'llfulfill their wishes and take them to the dogs. Should any difficulties arise before or after the above mentioned swell affair, we'll gust turn the matter over to Fields and Foohey and let them scrap it out as they are doing about their rival newspapers. W , Hedekin says he is going to be a good little boy, and is going to keep up his record and pass in everything excepting Chemistry and his three language classes. John was always a bright chap and this makes Bopp so jealous that he is now using oil on his hair to outshine John's, brightness, but it will 'take pretty tall stepping to do so. Dickerson, first known as Harry and later as Charles, takes good care of his ivory except when he worries over names. We expect him to be call- ing himself Reginald or possibly Per- cy or Archibald soon. Koehl might take time out of his reading of sched- ules and box scores to suggest a few more names if he were but asked. The Royal Order of Ally Skamooch has been successfully united with the Ancient Order of the Bloody Dagger and everything will run peaceably un- til the ofiicers are to be elected. Mills and Schneider are campaigning and Mills seems to be making the bigger hit of the two. Martin's Ford seems to be trying to put the south-bound street cars out of business at noons of late. But this is but one of the new changes. Schiffie and Fitzgerald are trying to run the rest of us out of class' by wanting all the work for themselves. Roth and Elliott are with us every day. Kinstie moved to town, and seems to be quite settled. Mills spends much of his time trying to convince Lucas that barbers' prices are coming down. Again we beg to repeat that we'll meet the Seniors at the weiner stand. -May, 1921. 20 THE As Seniors When we came back to school this year we found all our old friends here again, I mean all those who Hnished the Junior work with us last June. Besides our old gang, several. new men have joined our class. Joseph Kinstle, who spent the past two years in the preparatory department at St. John's University, Toledo, Ohio, re- turned to finish with the good bunch he started out with four years ago. Clyde Hanson, a former pupil of the public high school, joined us this year. John Haley and Kenneth Lo- gan deserted the quantity class of last year to be with the quality class of '22. Thus we are starting this year with a larger class than we started with last year, and judging by the in- terest in the work, everybody is very anxious not only to get a sheepskin but everything else that the school can give by way of honors at the end of the year. W e feel happy to say that we think the Senior class is do- ing everything it can to make the year a success in every way possible. When we held class elections, Julian Koehl was elected class presi- dent, William Foohey was made sec- retary, and for the fourth consecutive year we placed our funds in the hands of Bernard Kinstle. For a time we thought that Bernard-more popu- larly known as Bun -was about to desert us, but the wind has blown over and Bun will stick with us to the end. We occupy the room we had last year but it is not in the same condi- tion. The new windows, new black- boards, and new furniture along with the freshly painted walls and the new ornaments thereon, help to make the room a very agreeable place in which to study. ECHO When it comes to athletics, we hold the honor of contributing the captain of the football team. Julian Koehl, John Haley, Clyde Hanson and Ber- nard Kinstle were on the football team, and some of our men are trying out for the basketball team. We are right there when it comes to backing the team. . Our president, Julian' Koehl, leads the class and the school in getting Echo subscriptions. Clyde Hanson made a good showing in the same work. Several of our good talkers al- so helped to get the ads. Emmet Mills deserves special credit in this line of work.-December, 1921. As Seniors We were all anxious to return after our adventurous vacation, and every one except Paul Lucas showed up for class on January Srd. Oh, yes, I almost forgot that Dickerson did not get back until the fifth, and dur- ing his absence we had peace and quiet. The room was so monoto- nously still during the study period that some of our night hawks used to go to sleep. While the new year was still young the most important members of the class seemed to be the half-brothers CSD Bopp and J. C. Fitzgerald. They were visited by fifteen other Seniors every morning immediately after Latin class. When their supply run short J. C. sought refuge in the big study hall and has been there ever since. On the Varsity basketball team we have three men, rather two men and the little fellow. They are Hand- some Hanson, Goodlooking Koehl and Sweetness Haley. Haley had so many nicknames that we decided to run them into a title for Norm, and this V l l 1 I 4 I 1 i 1 l I I u ll 'I i n V r ' at ' ,1 Z 4 I Z 6 2 f Z 2 M s i + r r I 3 i 4 1 i 2 Z ,N - , A 22 ,c c THE is the result: Delicious Sweetness, the Nymph. Clarence Fields is the school chess champion, although Red Hedekin is running him a close second. Ain't it so, Red ? Joe Schneider, our saxophone jug- gler, and Little Emmet Mills, our happy-go-lucky, have been blackballed by the '6Pretty Boys' Club which was recently founded by 6'Handsome and Goodlooking. Joe Kinstle has suggested the in- stalling of a punch clock. Of course he agreed with Logan that the new clock should be used at quitting time only. Logan got so tired staying after school to make up the Ethics period that when he feels he will be late for that particular class he stays home rather than be embarrassed by ar- riving after the prayer has been said. Thus Ethics doth make prompt boys of us all. At last it dawned on us why Martin got out at three o'clock to work at the Press. Would he stay fifteen minutes longer he might not get out till five o'clock. 'Tis strange how some teach- ers like to work long hours. Dickerson's famous Awfulthin watch was confiscated by the book- keeping teacher but it was returned when it was found to be too big to be put into a coat pocket and to small to serve as a watch fob for a man of the proportions of our beloved pro- fessor. During the dull hours, Foohey and Schihfli usually enliven the place by their periodic scraps, while Valentine keeps us busy most of our spare time. Spare time is, however, almost a minus quantity since we lost Bun Kinstle and started our famous class ECHO of General Mathematics.-February, 1922. iiiil As Seniors According to the J ournal-Gazette the number of graduates is uncertain until after the final examinations. We still have our old sixteen. . The Senior transportation facili- ties are becoming better. Fields and Martin both have new machines for- merly owned by Henry Ford. W e have been told on the quiet that one of the big questions at the Mills home is, What will little Emmett dol when he grows up ? Spring fever doesn't seem to bother the Seniors. Koehl, Mills, Haley, Lo- gan and Dickerson spend more time than ever on their work, Hedekin gets to school on time, and Clyde is here 5 most every day. x 4 One of the real treats of the! Physics course was a trip through the I General Electric shops on Broadwayn This helped considerably to make up. for some of the ether fumes of then week previous. Lucas comes in from the farms every day and manages to be around: when Jim Belot needs help in Generalfl Math. Joseph Schneider is a prominent member of the famous Saxophone club which recently attracted consid- erable attention in the Sunday paper. Bopp, Foohey, Logan, Lucus, Schiffli and Kinstle seem to like the first class in the afternoon for they usually have their own work and more. We are all sighing for something, at something that words will not ex-ll press, so we have asked our artist tolf give vent to our feeling with the penl and here is the result.-Easter, 1922.1 l l V' , MW! , 2 1 . ,ff ,, ' ' 'Q 1 , , mf ,'e6V,fY7,' X 2 5 ff WWQWWWQ - Q ,11, . 4,4 X11 ,I t fi ' M 1 TMJ 'I V A 1 W I ' 1' i fli gf' 1M ' A 1 .- V' is . lmf ' 6 :2:1-::: -:a Z' - 9 fi. 3 .

The table gives for each of six Catho- lic Medical Schools the number of graduates who passed and the num- ber who failed in each state, as well as the totals and percentages, and the proportion of failures among all per- sons examined. It is fair to consider this in comparing the records of the colleges. There were only 35 failures from Catholic Medical Schools in the United States, and 23 were in New York, a state which rejected more than a fourth of all the candidates it examined. On the other hand, in Mas- sachusetts and Connecticut, which ap- parently were almost as exacting as New York, only one of 17 applicants from Catholic schools failed. The record of the six schools in all the jurisdictions except New York, shows only 4.7 per cent of failures. The rejections in this one state bring the figure up to 10.3 per cent, but even this is well below the 15.3 per cent which is the proportion of failures of all persons examined in the United States. All the Catholic Schools are rated iii Class A. In Nebraska all but seven of the applicants were grad- uates of the Creighton College of Medicine. These tables show quite conclu- sively that our Catholic Medical schools are on a par with, if not su- perior to, the secular schools and that the Catholic educational system is amply justified by its results in this important professional branch of ECHO learning. The figures for the schools of Law would show similar results. Recently figures were published showing the superiority of the schools of Journalism conducted by two of our .Catholic colleges.. These things being so, it is difficult to understand why our Catholic young men should feel any hesitation in making their professional studies under Catholic auspices. Some Statistics There are 20,000 students in six- teen Catholic universities in the Uni- ted Statesg 15,000 men are in attend- ance at 113 colleges, women number- ing more than 5,600 are being edu- cated in 52 colleges. The Catholic High Schools of the country total 1,552, serving the needs of almost 130,000 pupils. ' Th'ere are over 300 Religious Novi- tiates and Normal Training Schools fitting 10,500 teachers for the require- ments of higher education, as well as in the class rooms in our 6,500 paro- chial schools. Mr. High School Student: Have You a Definite Goal or Purpose In Life? Are you planning your future along definite lines? Is the education which you are now obtaining and planning to obtain, leading directly to the goal which you have set yourself to reach? A well known authority in the bus- iness world recently said: A basic reason why great num- bers of men fail to secure good posi- tions at the present, or any other time, is because they lack a goal or purpose in life. They are unable to offer a definite, specific, clear'-cut proposition to employers. Include iii Yoafr Plan of Life an Ecliicatiofh in a Catholic College.

Junior Room Stage 26 THE Few Catholics Know Number and Standing of Our Colleges We plead with very particular emphasis in favor of Catholic youths, boys and girls, who, emerging from the grade of grammar school, are to be sent to a high school or a college. There is on the part of some parents the illusion that the religious instruc- tion given in lower schools is adequate to all requirements, that children armed with it may in safety be ex- posed to the secularism of higher schools. The contrary is the obvious truth. In the grade or grammar school, pupils are yet immature in mind and are, to a great degree, in- capable of the deeper and more thor- ough instruction in religion which they should be possessed of. As they leave the lower schools, they are of the age when their mental faculties lead them to think and reason, as heretofore they could not have done. This is the time when they take to themselves the more serious studies in worldly branches of learning-the time, consequently, when religion should be presented to them :in its deeper and broader aspects-and it is at this most critical period of their intellectual development that they are withdrawn from the guidance of the Church and placed within an atmos- phere not merely negative in its influ- ence, but frequently tainted with di- rect and positive anti-religious and anti-Catholic teaching. It is the time when those themes of study are made their daily occupation, which lend to the teacher the opportunity of easier divagation from the principles of sound Catholic thought and conduct. I might go further and remark upon other perils of non-Catholic schools- so-called co-education, wild fads pro- posed as substitutes for religion in ECHO o the domain of morals-from which tender consciences outside the Catho- lic Church shrink in fear, which Catholic parents should never allow to cross the pathways of a child and youth. -Archbishop I roland. Would that these earnest words of the late Archbishop of St. Paul could be brought to the attention of Cath- olic parents who today are sending their children to institutions where their faith and morals are endan- gered. In all fairness, however, we must not lay all the blame on Catholic par- ents who do not send their boys and girls to Catholic high schools, col- leges and universities. It is surpris- ing how little is known about our Catholic institutions for higher edu- cation, even amongst the clergy and laymen who visit occasionally at our institutions. To the vast majority of our Catholic people, our colleges and universities are practically unknown. To compete successfully with State and sectarian institutions that give the utmost publicity to their work and spend vast sums of money annually in advertising, it is necessary for our Catholic institutions to make use of some means of reaching Catholic youths and inducing them to com- plete their education under Catholic influence.-Our Sunday Visitor. The Church and Education From the first century after Christ down to this day the Catholic Church has been at the forefront as an educa- tor. While the average Protestant has been taught that the very opposite is true, facts are in favor of our conten- tion. The leading universities of Eu- rope today are those which go back beyond the Reformation, and were of Catholic origin. These include OX- I l010iUlKlQOQOC Pastors Rev. joseph F. Delaney Rev Thomas M.

You will observe that prior to the six- teenth century they numbered '70, all of Catholic origin, while 46 others have been established by the Catholic Church since the Reformation-in all 116. This is nearly four times the to- tal founded by Protestants through- out Europe-a total of 31. In our own country the Catholic Church has more higher schools of learning than all the other denomina- tions combined. Read what these men have to say about the Catholic Church as an educator through the centuries. GLADsToNE- The Catholic Church has marched for more than fifteen hundred years at the head of human civilization, and has harnessed to her chariot, as the horses of a triumphal car, the chief intellectual and mate- rial forces of the world. REV. CANNCN FARRAR- HST 13911 thousand monasteries kept alive and transmitted that torch of learning which otherwise would have been ex- tinguished long before. The human- izing machinery of schools and uni- versities, the civilized propaganda of missionary zeal, were they not due to her? And more than this, her very existence was a living education. ARTHUR LEACH- There is not the smallest doubt that the provisions for secondary education was far greater in proportion to population during the Middle Ages than it has ever been since. Education was, if not a first charge on the endowments of the Church, at all events, a well recog- nized part of the duties for the per- formance of which the endowments were given .... Every collegi- ate church kept a secondary school, and every cathedral church main- tained, in early days, a small univer- sity. As a consequence, secondary schools were found in almost every place in which they were required. College Graduates Chance of Success Shown by Statistics Catholic College Week-April 30 to May 6-was celebrated by 150,000 students in Catholic colleges and sec- ondary schools throughout the United States, according to the National Catholic Welfare Council. According to statistics compiled by the depart- ment, college graduates, making 'up only 1 per cent of the national popu- lation, comprise more than 50 per cent of those who achieve leadership in the various walks of life. From a mass of data it was computed that with an elementary education the chances for success are one in 41,2503 with a high school education, one in 1,608, and with a college education one in 17 3.-Chicago Tribune.

The specialties were highly entertaining and each number found favor with the audience. A newspa- per comedy, The Editor-in-Chief, was the all-star number of the bill. Edmund Bresnahan impersonated the editor-in-chief of the Yorkville Scream and the scene presented was that of the editorial department of the paper. Patrick Donahue appear- ed as society editor, much excited over the approaching marriage of a society girl of Yorkville and a mil- lionaire from Chicago. Eugene Gull, political editor, announced to his chief, briberies and frauds in the fifth ward. Frank Bishop as sports editor, wrote an article on Jack Bot- tles, pugilist, impersonated by Edwin O'Neill, that led to complications. Robert Rinehart, editorial writer, was kept busy meeting the demands of his chief, who frequently changed his attitude concerning local events. Eugene Luley, as cutter, also proof- reader in the official family, fell into disfavor and left for New York. James Belot made an excellent fore- man of the pressroom, and Edwin McCarthy, politician, became recon- t I I I I 1 l i ,Tr WL THE JOE AND EDDIE ciled with the stai of the Scream When political advertising was assur- ed. Edward Kallmeyer played the role of the office boy, Harrison, a fa- vorite with all unless something went wrong, when he was responsible. One of the features of the 12-act vaudeville was the Rainbo Syncopa- tors, composed of Paul Berning, ban- joistg Gay Bowers, saxophone artist, Harry Swift, pianist, Joseph Schnei- der, clarionetist, and Jack Fox, traps. The musicians were heard during the intermission. Raymond Young in The Blue Laws, gave a clever monologue on the evils of tobacco. Paul Berning and Kenneth Logan had a most interesting number in Mind Reading and Mental Telep- athy. Numerous questions submit- ECHO 31 ted in envelopes by the audience were answered and objects described, though the reader was blindfolded. Hanson, Clifford and Haley in This Is Our Stop impersonated two tramps and a supposed friend, whom they robbed during a touching story of their need of assistance. Kramer and Frank Mungovan as blackface comedians in Hands Up, furnished many new stories and jokes to the entertainment of the au- dience. lVlcKiernan, McAvoy, Smith, Be- lot, Donahue, Bishop, McCarthy and Bresnahan formed a double quartet and as Eight Wonders of the BELOT AND DONAHUE in The City Girl and The Country Rube 32 THE ECHO JOSEPH SCHNEIDER AND HARRY SWIFT Worlds' rendered several popular numbers.

Donahue and Belot in The City Girl and the Country Rube, ap- peared in a number that Was of a professional order, the funmakers giving one of the best sketches on the bill. A song and dance specialty, She's Mine, by T. Mungovan and T. Mc- Kiernan, Was very good. J A little bit of everything by Wm. Foohey, John Hedekin, Joseph Bopp and Edwin O'Neill featured Thurs- day night's performance. The Glee Club, composed of juniors and seniors, closed the program with the C. C. H. S. Victory Song.

By me men have dug deep into the earth and extracted metal from the solid rock. By me they have sailed in air ships and have sailed upon and under the sea. By me men make war. By me men make peace. I have traveled over oceans and continents and have helped to make cities, states, nations, principalities, and powers. I ,am the guiding star of civiliza- tion and the hope 'of the world.

The vault in the dilapidated little graveyard opposite New Orleans, where the body of John McDonogh, known to American history as an ec- centric philanthropist, was first laid, was kept in order for years after the removal of McDonogh's remains. A faithful negro, who had been one of McDonogh's slaves for years, attend- ed to this. Chisled in the stone of the vault are the following rules, which McDonogh formulated, when he was but twenty-four years of age, for the guidance of his life: '6Remember always that labor is one of the conditions of our existence. Time is gold, throw not one min- ute of it away, but place each one to account. Do unto all men as you would be done by. Never bid another do what you can do yourself. N ever put off till tomorrow what you can do today. N ever think any matter so trivial as not to deserve notice. Never covet what is not your own. Never give out that which does not first come in. Never spend but to produce. Let the greatest order regulate the transactions of your life. Study in the course of your life to do the greatest possible amount of good. Deprive yourself of nothing neces- sary to your comfort, but live in an honorable simplicity and frugality. Labor, then, to the last moment of your existence. 'Pursue strictly the above rules, and Divine blessing and riches of every kind will flow upon you to your ECHO I heart's content, but first of all res member that the first and great study of your life should be to tend by all means in your power to the honor and glory of the Divine Creator. The conclusion at which I have arrived is that without temperance there is no health, without virtue no order, without religion no happiness, and the sum of our being is to live wisely, soberly, and righteouslyf' The Real Man I take no thought of my neighbor's birth, Or the way he makes his prayer g I grant him a White Man's place on earth, If his game is on the square. If he plays straight, I'll call him mate, If he cheats I'll drop him flat. All rank but this, is a worn-out lie, L For each clean man is as good as I, And a king is no more than that. -The M driner. ,liLl.1 1 Decide and Do!

Ac- cepting this as a working definition of a hat, I shall proceed to trace for you the origin and use of this most prominent part of our present day at- tire. If my statistics are correct, and I have every reason to think that they are correct, the hat originated with our common father, Adam, shortly after his fall. We are told by the old chronicler-who received his infor- mation directly from his ancestors, who lived both before and during the life of Adam -that Adam went out at break of day in order to kill a kid for the morning repast. The weather was warm and the sharp rays of the fiery sun were shining in his beard- covered face, and thus his task was not an easy one. Passing through brambles, briers, and thistles, Adam had great difficulty in slaying and dressing the kid. He returned to his cottage all sun-beaten and tired. His loving wife, Eve, seeing her dearest in this suffering condition, tried to render all the services she could to her loved one. She knew she could do so by giving him something to shade his sun-stricken face. She thought of the bass wood leaf, and what a pleasant hat it would make. She hurried to procure the desired foliage. With a grape vine for a rib- bon, she tied the large leaf upon Adam's head. Adam looked so well in his new head dress that it was a suggestion for her to do likewise. A few moments later, Eve was wearing ECHO a catalpa leaf decorated with corn silk and ribbon grass. We must needs pass over man in- teresting stories of hats recorded by the old chronicler in those rare man- uscripts which I have mentioned above in order to get to the story of Samson. Samson, in his combat with a lion, was so obliging as to give the lion a mouthful of human head-grown hair. Dalila, his sweetheart, found him bald and said: Samson, my loved one, how comest thou to be barefooted on the top of thy head? Now thou must put on a hat or a helmet. Samson, exasperated at this personal remark, and wishing to answer in the German dialect-for the language of the Phil- istines would not convey the full force of his reply-used the words of Eric of Leodecedearia, and said: To hel- mit the helmitg I'll var de 'at. The evolution of the hat might well be compared to the steps of a fishladder. Each step can hold th-e head of the water for but a short time. From the elaborate head-gear that men are now wearing it seems highly probable that a great change is close at hand. The men Will soon be as effeminate as women are, or else they will go to the opposite ex- treme and begin to go around with their bone-cases uncovered as Adam did before his fall. -Li-l APRETTY young lady went into a music shop the other day, tripped up to a counter where a new clerk was busy and sweetly asked: Have you 'Kissed Me in the Moon- light'? No, said he. It must have been the man at the other counter. I've only been here a day.

I'd like to shoot that old man. Whom do you mean, Charlie? Helen's father. She's going to have a party tonight, and her dad won't let me come. He has no use for me. What does Helen think ? She's wild about it. She wants me to be there, and I'm going. Are you ? Sure, I'm going-but if the old man doesn't want you, you had bet- ter be careful. Leave it to me, Jack. Look here. I'm going to wear these fancy togs, and this wig. I What! You're not going to dress like a lady ? You bet. There's more than one way of getting around fogies, you know. Jack laughed and helped his friend don the gay gown. That wig Hts you great. Have you got any of that red stuff for your cheeks and lips? You have eyebrows enough ! . Yes. I've got the 'red' all right. It took Charlie about an hour to get himself in trim and Jack thought he was one of the prettiest kids he had ever seen. Does Helen know that you're com- ing dressed like that? No. That's the best part of it. She will not expect me, and it will be one on her and the old crank, too. Gee! It makes me feel good to get one over on the old codger. '6Are you ready to go, J ack. Yes I'm just putting on the fin- ishing touches. There is the car for us. Let's go. Jack took his would-be sweetheart by the arm and entered the cab. Within a few minutes they were driven up to the door and could .hear the music and singing in Helen's home. Charlie began to get uneasy. He had not thought of the possibility of his wig coming off, of having his lips on sideways, of his dress coming unhooked and the like, but nowall of these things bothered him. They en- tered the ballroom. Jack was kept busy introducing his silent compan- ion. Time wore on a little and Char- lie had seen nothing of Helen. In answer to J ack's question, her mother told him that she had not come down from her room yet and that she was going up to her within a few mo- ments. ' Where do you think she is, Char- lie ? She1s dolling up yet, Jack, you know she has a lot of pretty things to put on and that takes time., Look how long I was getting ready. Mr. Jones. Jack, Mrs. McClue is calling you. Look how pale she is, something is wrong. Yes, ma'am. Come here a moment, will you, please ? Jack left his partner and spoke a few words with Helen's mother. What, she's not in her room ? No, Did you see anything of Charles Devers today ? Yes. I was talking to him this afternoon. He told me that Mr. Mc- Clure would not let him come to the house any more, and that he hoped Helen would have a good time that evening. He's a fine young man, Jack, but you know my husband is somewhat strange at times. Jack returned .to the crowd and HEED THE CALL BUY ! YGUNG ME !

' Why didn't I tell Helen I was com- ing ? Hastily Charlie made his way homeward. He wanted to get out of his gay togs. He felt guilty in them. Why had he put them on at all? Why was he afraid of old man McClure? Charlie's mind. Suddenly he came upon a young lady walking leisurely down the avenue. She was beauti- fully dressed and carried a rose in her hand, pulling from it a leaf now and then and humming softly. Charlie recognized who it was and joined in the tune. Don't mind the togs, Helen, but this is Charlie. A I 4 2 1 J 2 i a Many such thoughts flashed through . ll Q. I1 Cured By Fright You won't be gone long, will you, dear? I'm not very sick, the doctor said it was only nervousness brought on by living way out here, and being alone most of the time. Why do you want to get the doctor extra tonight? When you're here I feel good. It was a poor, sick young wife who thus addressed her husband as he left their cottage. All day long snow had fallen and as night drew on a terrific gale arose. Jack Berry was a wood- cutter and his home was situated in a desolate place in the mountains. Both he and his wife knew how peri- lous it was to go for the doctor, espe- cially at night, but Jack had worked all day and had come home after dark, expecting to find his wife in better spirits.

During the spring and summer days she had been very well and had often come out into the forest to spend several hours with him . But now winter had come on and she was forced to stay in doors, and for some months had been suffering from a nervous breakdown. Jack had bought the tract of land and was making money on it. Several times he would have sold the place and moved into town, but his wife thought he would be better off there, and that she would become accustomed to living there. She seemed quite well this morn- ing, he told himself, but that pe- culiar look on her face frightens me. No, I'll not be gone long, and re- member dear, two whistles means that it's' me that is coming, and don't be afraid. ' Jack stooped down to kiss his wife, and as he did so he felt how cold her forehead was. I'll be back as soon as the doctor can make it. Saying this he wrapped his heavy coat about him, turning the collar high about his head, and with a heavy heart faced the storm. S 'i God have mercy upon my wife, Jack prayed. Spare her to me. Onward he went as fast as he could through the blinding snow. Every step took him farther from his sick wife. Will the doctor be in? Will she die before I get back? These and other thoughts crowded in upon him. Jean, his young wife, was a good Catholic and had accepted her sick- ness with resignation. She did not, at present, think her case was very serious, but the day had dragged on wearily and she had grown very im- THE ld ational Bank OF FORT WAYNE, INDIANA A United States Depository A member of the Federal Reserve Bank District No. 7 The conservative policy of its officers and directors has made its name synonymous with safety and strength Establish Your orodit by o Good Bank Connection ToTAL REsoURoEs 258,000,000 HENRY C.

How long the time seems since Jack left. Ch, if he were here with me I'm sure I would feel much bet- ter. Two hours had passed. Suddenly she heard a heavy thump against the door. What was that ? Jean shuddered. It can not be Jack for he did not whistle. Again she heard the sound, and with it a groan. She could not imag- ine what it was. Through the strain her nerves tightened and she felt her- self fearless and strong. As the knob of the door was grasped and slightly turned, Jean sprang from her bed, and taking the gun stood ready for the intruder. For a moment there was a calm--then a third groan and a low thud. She stepped forward, seized the knob and flung the door wide open. A terrific drift of snow blew in and the biting wind cut her severely. There in a heap lay a man. As he was partly covered with snow, Jean could not recognize who he was. The poor fellow, she said, how can I get him in. She stooped down and as she did so, the man turned over, raising his head so she could see him. Jack,,' she screamed. Jack, are you dead? Strong from the tension of her nerves, she pulled him into the house and shut the door. It was her hus- band. The long walk and the gale had overcome him. When he recov- ered partly he said, I couldn't get the doctor for you. I wish he was here for you, dear. ECHO Robert Hugh Benson, the Poet Robert Hugh Benson is well known as a preacher and a novelist, but he is too little known as a poet. I shall endeavor to show the spirit of his poetry by showing the spirit of a few of his best poems. His Lines Writ- ten Before August, 1903 shows his noble soul longing for the sign that will brand him as a true Catholic, wholly submissive to the Authority of Peter. The lines, I can not live an- other hourg Jesu, be' Thou my life! I have no power to strive, be Thou my Power in every strife, show the poet's hope and longing. The two poems, A Halt and Pa- tience, could easily be called twin sisters. The same spirit pervades both. At Prayer Meeting and At High Mass are contrast sonnets. The latter is one of the richest sonnets that has ever been produced in mod- ern times. In sublimity it is worthy of Milton, in spirit worthy of the Christ. In the contrast sonnets under the title, Plead Thou My Cause, with subtitle Attrition and Contrition we get the key to what Louis H. Witmore calls the Benson Carthusian spirit. This spirit is confirmed by other poems, notably The Invita- tion, The Teresian Contemplativej' O Deus Ego Amo Te, In the Month of May, After a Retreat, and In the Garden of a Religious House. The key to his popularity with the reading public is found in the poems called Fulfilment, Wed- ding Hymn, Savonarola Mori- turus, and Christmas Carol. The man of superior faith is found in poems like Lauda Sion Salvarorem, Christian Evidencesj' and Ave Verum Corpus Natumf' SUCCESS generally comes to men of ordinary ability who Work extraordinarily hard and incidentally keep themselves fit DON'T NEGLECT YOUR EYES 1012 Calhoun Street Lyric Theatre Bldg.

Well, it's a pretty long story but I'll try and make it short. It was in the year 1915, if I re- member correctly. The time when robberies were many and robbers were bold. It was on a cold winters night, January 17, to be more exact. I had worked hard all day and was dead tired.

Setting up inbed I heard plainly a thump, thump, thump on the cellar stairs. Surely some one was walking down the cellar stairs. I dressed hurriedly and went down stairs. The front and back doors were locked. I was sure that the fel- low had gotten in the side door. Pick- ing up a club I went outside and around to the side door to await his exit. I waited for a long time, but as no one came I went back into the house determined to go down cellar. When I opened the cellar door, the light, streaming from the kitchen, revealed a large rat bouncing a carrot down the stairs. C. C. H. S. Issues Easter Publication With the feast of the resurrection the Easter number of the Central Catholic High School, The Echo, greets its readers and is decidedly at- tractive. On this occasion it is Fa- ther's and Mother's edition, being dedicated to the parents of the stu- dents. This idea finds expression on the artistic grey and white cover in its illustration. The frontispiece of the book presents the student body of the C. C. H. S. grouped in front of their building. Current events at the high school are recorded and sound views are pre- sented on the editorial page. Names of students who have made the honor roll are presented with those who have won four or more 90's to their credit. A well written and express- ive tribute is paid to the memory of Reverend William C. Miller, one of the first members of the faculty, teaching church history and philoso- A. C.

For older and matured minds, it may be a necessity, possibly a harmless one, but the im- pressionable minds of our children can gain nothing but injury from it. We have selected, at random, a copy of one of the most popular New York Sunday papers. On one page we find printed accounts of two murders, one suicide, twelve robberies, three as- saults, four divorces and three sala-. cious stories of marital infidelity. The perusal of such viciousness should not be permitted to readers of tender years. It may be news, but there are more important things in life than an intimate knowledge of what is happening around us. Such re- cording of vice and crime, such an ex- pose of the doings of the unfortunates living on the seamy side of life, are not necessary or advantageous bits of See Our Complete Line of VICTROLAS and Latest Records WARNING-Get the Genuine VICTOR.

Newspaper stories, alluringly illus- trated, are a real menace to the young. Parents should be scrupulously ex- act in exercising the strictest sur- veillance over the reading of their children. Papers and books, maga- zines and novels, there are a-plenty. Many of them are positively indecent, many are gravely harmful, few, if any, are beneficial to the child's mind or morals. And yet, the homes of many of our good, Catholic people- are littered with this printed truck. we trust that the religious book and newspaper are not conspicuous by their absence. Children must read, just as they must eat, but poison is not food, either for the body or the mind. -Indiana Catholic. What We Don't Know The more thou knowest, and the better thou understandest, the more severe will be thy condemnation, un- less thy life be proportionately more holy. Be not therefore excelled, for any uncommon skill in any part or science, but let the superior knowl- edge that is given thee, make thee more fearful and more watchful over thyself. Though thou knowest many things, having perfect understanding of them, consider how many more things there are of which thou know- est nothing at all. --Thomas a'Kempis.

Show yourselves to them as perfect little gentlemen at all times. IYour mother certainly deserves your love and re- spect and you are therefore in duty bound to be polite to her. p But what about your sisters? The test of a true gentleman is his behavior at home. The boy that is courteous to his sisters and polite to his mother, is the boy who will be a gentleman when he grows up. Of course boys never really intend to be rude at homeg they only forget to be polite. But such forgetting quickly grows in- to a habit and will, by and by, make them rude to everybody. Therefore, boys, if you wish to be gentlemen, practice it at home. Don't mind the silly sneer of rude boys who laugh at you and call you sissy when you are nice to your sisters. They only want you to be like them and grow up as they will, without a bit of the gentle- man about them. There are many ways in which you may act the gen- tleman with your sisters. Don't an- swer your sister in a rude manner as if she were not worth while talking to when she asks you a question. An- swer her as well and as kindly as you know how. Donit annoy your sisters by teasing or making fun of them in a way that hurts their feelings. As- sist them whenever you can and by no means ever allow them to do any- thing that is boys' work. -Selected.
