We have succeeded in both endeavors. Every Senior has made this year his most successful year both socially and educationally. The first important move was electing officers. Chas. M. Johnston, President, Gertrude Colvin, Vice-Presidentg Geraldine Brode, Secretary, Otto Bernthal, Treasurer, Herald Amrhein, Sergeant- at-Arms, were elected to the respective offices and have shown the Senior Class some wonderful affairs. The first social activity occurred on the night of October 31 in the form of a party held in the main room of the Commercial Department. This was a decided success and terminated in the wee sma' hours of the mornin'.V The next important manoever was the first Senior dance held 'December 12. This was a social success even if not financially so. Tl1e,Sjyjngopat'ed,Six in their ardent CbutQ not melodiusj jazzing, managed to splinter a couple of drum sticks, which fortunately was the sole cause of the deficit. ' To commemorate some of the I24A,S who passed into the oblivion of P. G., we held a mid-semester sleigh ride to Munger. Oil-all the Senior social activities, this was the most successful. After several games, including Leading the Donkey in which Don McCabe and Duffy took prominent parts, weienjoyed a delightful feed. When a few more games hadvnbeen enjoyed, the party embarked for home. No one will ever forget that memorable trip. M-r. Aeby's flash-light broke up the dark corner party a number of times and furnished amusement for the journey. When we returned, everyone agreed that he could not have had greater enjoyment. Social activities took a decided rest for 'a time during which the various committees pertaining to graduation, were appointed. 2, v The most recent social' undertaking was the Senior Leap Year dance given by the girls, which was entirely successful, financially and socially., The decorations were especially unique and very prettyf The' floor, bordered' withjfloor lamps and davenports, was very artistic, while the huge 'class pin, illumined by a search- light, brought forth favorable comment. ' The field meet, which will undoubtedly be ,Won ,by the Seniors aided by the Sophomores, Class Day, and Commencement, will bring to a close the greater activities of the Class of '2o. ' Aside from enjoying these various functions, the class of 1920 has gained for the entire school more privileges and improvements than any other class. The present Seniors are accredited with the introduction of the Student Council and due to the efforts of the Senior Class the examination exemption is being given a. trial and the honor system is being seriously contemplated. Therefore, in view of these things accomplished by us in the year IQIQ-20, we the Seniors, feel that we have been eminently successful as a class, and have done our utmost to improve the school life at Bay City Eastern.

JOHNSTON PAULINE HAINES -1 '-,gf iff Class History I I In looking forward to the moment which is to terminate the career of our High School life, our feelings do not permit us to depart without acknowledging the debt of gratitude which we owe our beloved school and its faculty, who have guided us thus far through the tcmpestuous seas of learning. No one not in our situation can appreciate our feeling of sadness at this parting. To this place and to the kindness of these teachers we owe everything. XVe hereby pledge them our thanks and now turn to the pages of history indelibly written by the greatest class Eastern has ever known. As Freshmen, we felt that we could excellg as Sophomores, we knew that we would excellg as juniors we saw that we were excellingg as Seniors, we know that we have excelled. On Friday, the 28th of September, 1917, the first meeting of the Sophomore Class was held, and the following officers were elected: President, Leo Niedzielskig Vice-Pesident, Sarah Mangold, Secretary, Charles Shearer, Treasurer, Harry 'XValker. Green and VVhite were chosen as our class colors, and Lily-of-the-Valley as our flower. Then, to insure our future success, we chose Miss Monahan and Mr. Touse as honorary members. The President led a class of eighty through a very successful year, both socially and financially. The principal social event of the year was a masquerade party held at the home of Myra Hyatt. It was a huge success. The Junior Class election was held September 27th, 1918, and we elected the following officers: President, james E. Duffy, jr.: Vice-President, Pauline Gallagherg Secretary, Gladys Noonang Treasurer, Eric Speckhard. On account of the depart- ure of Mr. Touse from the faculty we chose Mr. Aeby to take his place as honorary member. The first of the many of the social activities of the junior Class was a party held at the home of Neal Moore. Trouble which resulted at this party was the cause of a series of resolutions which led up to the formation of the Student's Association, governed by the Student's Council. The purpose of this Association was to prevent further friction between the upper classes of the school. On February I.ltll, 1019, the first J Hop was held at the Colonial Club. It proved to be a great success. Next came the junior Play, Strongheart, the first four act play ever attempt- ed by any class of Emtern. This play made our reputation. After another party and a very successful dance given by the girls of the class, plans were made for the Annual Senior Send-Off. This Send-Off involved the ex- penditure of several hundred dollars, and had not disagreeable weather interfered ivould have proved our usual success. XVe started our Senior year by electing the following officers: President, Charles M. johnsong Vice-President, Gertrude Colving Secretary, Geraldine Brodeg Treasurer, Otto Bernthal. Our first splash was a party at the school. Needless to say it was another successful event added to our list of many. Soon after we held our first Senior Dance at the Board of Commerce Club. lt turned out to be a great success. , - v' ' 1111- 11'1-:1X111A1' 111'11IQ 1111111- 11'1-11 1111-11, 111 1111111111 111 111 11 11l11'4V1X'1'4, '1411K' 11'1-111 1114 il H411-1Q'111'1111- 11111 11'111'111 11111 111 1111 11111 1111111 11:111 111 x1l1l1LQ'1'l'. 11 S111'1' 11:15 1 11'1-111 :11111 1-1'1-1'111111- 111111 1111- 111l11' 111' 111s 1111 1111 l1l1l' 1111111111 111 111llI1Q1'1' 111- 112111 1- 111l'il4111'l' 111' 11z1sN111g' :1 ,111111l11' S1l'1Q'1111111 111 1--'1111 i11'111 1111 .XIJI11 11111, 111211, 1111 f111111111l11l1X 11111111 11.1s 1111- 4K'l'11l' 111 :1 1,1-:111 X1-111' 1,l111'1' g11'1-11 111' 1111' Q'1I'14 111 1111- 1'1:1ss. 11I1N 111 s:1111 111 11'11'1- 111-1-11 11111- 111 1111- 1-1'1111'91. 11:1111'1-s 111 1111- Q1-:1s1111 111111 1111511 Q11 111111111 1111111 ,1l1w 111 1l1111'K l1111'11I1' 1 C1:1+N 13:11 1'1:11', 1-1111111-11 1111- 1X1111-1111111 11111111 11111111 11 14 1'1-1'1' f1111111-Q41111 11l1'11 11J1XX'111111 1111- I11lX' 111 11:11w C111111111-111'1-1111-111 '1111' Q1:111111-F1 11111 :11s11 1111- 11111-41 111 11ll1' 1':11'1'1-1-1'. 11l1'11 111- 11:1111- 11111 1111111 g111111 1111- 'lI1I1 11141-11 11714111 1111 1111 1:11 1 1 1- 1'111'111' 1'l1i111 1111 1111-.

Iohn Walther Vice-President . . . . Mildred Small Secretary ...... . . . Robert Ruggles Treasurer ........ .... L eta Kussro Sergean t-at-Arms . . . . Lloyd Chapman The Juniors at the end of the term have happiness, prosperity and endless energy. The reason for this can be readily seen. They started with electing the following officersg President, John VValtherg Vice-President, Mildred Smallg Secre- tary, Robert Rugglesg Treasurer, Leta Kussro, and Sergeant-at-Arms, Lloyd Chap- man. The juniors experienced a little trouble in regard to honorary members, but they ended with the best Cat least we think soj in the High School, Miss Beese and Mr. German. The social season opened with a party at John Walther's cottage at Linwood. Everybody had a wonderful time despite the efforts of several persons in other classes to make it an extended affair. After it had snowed sufficiently the Juniors held a regular sleigh ride fwith horses and sleds, not trucksl at the home of Miss Effie Couzins, which she kindly opened to the class. Shortly after this the class pins and rings arrived. Although to an outsider the pins and rings appear to be the same as other classes, to us they seemed a little better, a little brighter, and then there is also the fact that they have the numeral '21 on them which, of course, would make a big difference. One of the most successful and enjoyable affairs of the year was a dance given at the Armory. The hall was beautifully decorated with the class colors, and a nine piece orchestra added greatly to the enjoyment of the evening. The dance also aided the financial prosperity of the juniors. 13 SSV HO IZ6I The Junior Play, the great event, the occasion which is planned for and waited for throughout the Freshman and Soph days, and then rememlmered for long years, was given at the XVasliington, April Io. The play All of a Sudden Peggy, is a coma-dy concerning' the heroine l,e,Q'Qy, a happy-,go-lucky lrish lassie who leads them all a merry chase. XVorcls cannot clcscriln- the success ol' it. It is enough to say that only the junior Class ol' 'll coulcl have gjiyeii such a play. Much crcclit is clue' to the unceasingj lilllfllhilllfl elim-rgry ol' Miss Grahaiu to niakc- the junior play thc hast ever givcn. The class appre-ciated her work greatly. The cast also sacri- fice-cl much and gave their all during: the weeks of rehearsal. The cast was as follows: Anthony, l.orcl Qil'1lk'iit'lltilllflll'.. .John xxvilltlltll' The llon, jimmy Ks-ppvl ........ ..l-loyd Chapman Major A rchie Phipps tretirs-clj . ...Thomas Plum jack Menzies .................. . . .Clillwrt Plum Lucas ............. . .

Notwithstandimtg' the fact that only il few more weeks of school remain, tl1e class is planning on having a party in the near future. The girls are also to give a Leap Year Dance. Altho we look with regret upon the last days of the junior year, thinking Of the happy times, yet it is with a feeling of happy anticipation that we look forward to those days when we will have at last reached the Senior year, secure in the thought that we have gained the highest pinnacle of success.

Ruth Auger Our class ship has safely weathered all storms with Emil Gansser and Edwin Vtfestover piloting, under the skillful command of Miss lilllillll and Mr. Riker, assisted by Albert Boehringer, Martha Carpenter, Ruth Auger and Fred Hovevr. Our voyage has been more successful than predicted by our fellow class ships, who have been at sea mueli longer than we liave. As we left port Miss lXlzu'gziret Carter entertained us with a delightful party. The evening was spent in musie and games, after which dainty refreshinents were servedf The committees in clizirge were as follows: Entertainment, Martlizl Carpenter, Leroy Rogers, Hazel Snover :ind Clarence Reerlg Refreshment, Greta Muir, Orrin Meiselbaeli, Dorothea Bennett and Ruth Stewart. Early in the spring the crew and all passengers deeided to don overalls and calico for the rest of the trip, to cut down the high eost of living. At first this seemed a great novelty, but it was not simply a fad. NVe were in earliest in our at- tempt to boycott the profiteers and bring down prices. Like all good ships, as we neared port we decided to celebrate. Our enter- taininent took the form of a dance. The committee in cliarge consisted of Mary Lou Miller, Frank Stout and Dorothea Bennett. The hall was eharmingly decorat- ed in the ship's colors of blue and white, and the music was furnished by Buclianan's orchestra. This was strictly a Leap Year party, and was one of the greatest successes of the voyage. Let it be known that this craft is the first to stage such an entertainment after so short a voyage. -H. G.

L 'Q mgwk i Editorials i i Fellow students, has it occurred to you that we are living in an era that will go down in the anals of world history as the reconstruction period after the greatest war of all ages? And has it occured to you that the high cost ol' living which we gossip about and sigh over, but really don't think seriously about, except when it comes to buying a new pair of shoes, or a suit, perhaps, and wc find that the piicc tag registers higher than ever before and is all out of proportion to the contents of our pocket book, will be discussed from all angles in the histories which our grandchildren and great-grandchildren will have to peruse Qpoor thingsll XYhat will be their thoughts, we wonder, when they read about their grandpas going to school in farmerish overalls, and their grandmas donning cheap garments that heretofore they would have been ashamed to confess as owning? VVill they con- sider their ancestors as martyrs to a cause, as fools, or as girls and boys just wishing for something sensational and 1mut-of-the-ordinary? And just what are wc? And just what is the drive accomplishing? These are questions which require careful consideration. XVe started in with a spirit, it is true, but will the enthusiasm last? The pessimists about us declare emphatically that the blue denim attack against thc H. C. of L. will evidence no material good because it is a fad and a scheme ol' the overall manufacturers and merchants, who have boosted the price of their cheaper garments double and even triple. But we are not going to give ear to their ragings until we see if they are right. lt is our earnest hope that they will prove in the wrong, and that our decreasing the cost of necessities and downing the midcllemen will be successful. Looking at the subject from a different angle, and ft more optimistic one, let us consider what these several weeks or months of old clothes and overall- wearing have meant to the high school girl and boy, who may possess but one respectable garment which serves both Sunday and school purposes. If they were fortunate enough to possess some old calicos or overalls, the plan was a great help to them and stretched the wearability of their clothing. So we must let the pessimist rave on and keep a-wearing the old togs until we see the ten dollar suit marked down to nine-ninety-eight, and then-oh, well! ! Eioi, GOOD-BYE TO THE OLD BUILDING. Seniors of 1920, you are perhaps the last class that will be registered as graduating from the Eastern High School, situated at Madison avenue and Eleventh street-or, at least, we hape so. And because of this fact-, would it not be well before turning away, fo look back over the forty-nine years of the building's existence? Eastern can boast of being one of the first erected schools of the state, and there- fore its history is more interesting than that of most schools of today. Around it are woven no small number of pleasant memories, romances and events for every day of those forty-nine years has left its trace in the pages of history. D-oubtless the romances of many of our fathers and mothers had their incipiency in the very study room in which we meet daily and maybe it would be safe to say that even our grandparents might have reported with trembling limbs, in the same office, after doing some petty offense, spied by the the eagle eye of a teacher. Several of the very pictures which we regard with bored eyes as we pass through the dingy corridors, were presented to Eastern by the first graduat- ing class-a half century ago. And Eastern has not only produced history but great men and women who, although they see the need of a new school for the present generation, and have done all in their power to secure it, will never forget the school house by the railroad -old Eastern High! And in years to come, when we are old and gray, we will point with pride to the spot where once the old buildin' stood and say, It might not have been such a wonderful structure but-you'd be surprisedli' ,l-.o i. The fellow who once thought he could bluff and get away with it, now dis- covers that the war taught teachers a few facts about camouflage that they didn't know before. They have no difficulty now in distinguishing between those who have the goods and those who are fools in students' clothing. .,..0-., VVe don't want to worry or anything, but if the prices of sodas and lolli- popes continue to soar, it will be necessary for us to visit Ct exodontist, and have our sweet tooth extracted, leaving in its place but a pleasant memory. Rome was not built in a day and by the looks of things the new high school will not be either. .Liv lllx j D U EL-fix Fm I XV7 Q i Nr Wi fi , , i 1 f '15 Q Q fm my Q m y I xx:-Diff A v ff , ' X 'I I .5 i q Lv F .4-' 5 .

The Autobiography of a Grain of Sugar Gentle readers, with your gracious permission, I will impart to you some knowledge of my present condition and surroundings before I actually begin my wretched life history. I am a beautiful, pure white grain of granulated sugar. My place of abode is a lovely, hand-painted sugar bowl, that my brothers tell me came from Italy. I suppose that I should be interestetd to know where that country isg but I am not. Neither are any of my relatives and friends who live here with me. Soon I will tell you why. But, to continue, I know that I am loved and sought for by all the wonderful human beings that exist about me, but I am not happy. Clustered around me are several other houses quite as pretty as mine, and beyond, in all directions, are endless snow-white plains. But even this does not make me happy. Alas, it is not my fate to spend my sweet old age in peace. My mind is constantly overshadowed with the thot that in the near future a terrible calamity awaits me, and that I have not the power to resist it. An ancestor of mine, who has been stuck to the cover of the sugar bowl for two weeks, informs me that I will eventually be consumed. Woe is me ! Only last night I heard someone read about being consumed by fire. What an awful ending for a pure, sweet life! But I must hurry on with my autobiography if I would hope to finish it before I am consumed. I feel that you, my readers, fully appreciate my state of mind and the fact that my history may end abruptly at any moment. Excuse me if my melancholy nature manifests itself in the following pages. I proceed with my life history. The first thing that I can remember is that early last spring I was a small, wrinkled, straw-colored seed. As I nestled down in a cozy, warm bed of moist loam where a big, good-natured farmer placed me I went to sleep, knowing nothing of what lay before me. I see now that ignorance is bliss, for, if I had known then what I know now, I am sure that I would have worried myself to death. As it was, however, I slumbered on and let nature perform its work. You can well imagine the shock I received when I awoke and found that I was no longer a seed but a monstrous sugar beet. I could not help but think of Rip Van Winkle and his long sleep. At last I was in a position to sympathize with him. Nevertheless I was real proud of myself because I was head and shoulders taller than any of the beets around me. I made friends with most of these beets and with a large stone that I felt would make a stable, trustworthy companion. I did not forget to establish myself on friendly terms with several earthworms so that they would not eat me. I was extremely popular in the community and so, as a result, was com- pletely satisfied with the world. One morning in early September I was awakened by a great commotion in the neighborhood. Iiwas not long kept 'in ignorance of the trouble. A merciless hand grabbed me by the nape of my neck, yanked me out of the ground, and threw me into a wagon. I was filled with consternation but slightly recovered when my friend, the stone, after making a hyperbola thru the air, came to rest beside me. We embraced each other and said 'farewell', thinking that the end had come. Look- ing backward now, I wish that that might have been the end. But life is sweet and youth is irrepressible. Seeing that we were not to be annihilated immediately, my friend and I soon began to enjoy the journey that would end we knew not where. Finally, when the first traces of dusk began to overshadow the earth, we arrived at a large inclosed structure, close beside a mammoth brick building. After some dickering with an official, the man who had us in his charge shoveled us into the enclosure which, we learned, was a beet bin. My friend and I managed to keep together during the wild scramble. Tired from the unusual experiences of the day I whispered 'good night' and drifted easily into dreamland. For a month nothing out of the ordinary happened. Each day marked the arrival of more beets and soon the bin that I was in became full. I remember hearing the busy official remark that that was a little less to do. Apparently he was as much relieved as I was. My friend and I were soon on speaking terms with the strange beets about us. We learned that they had passed an experience similar to ours. The mutual knowledge of this fact served to strengthen the bonds of friendship among us. We spent many an hour discussing, both seriously and humorously, our future. Although our clique included most of the intellectual element of the beet bin, we could arrive at no definite conclusion as to our possi- ble fate. We all agreed, however, that something was in store for us, and that we probably represented potential energy. And so we waited, curious yet fearful, for the inevitable to happen. 'isizrzee .V s Not until the fifth of October was our patience rewarded. On that eventful day we all knew that the period of preparation was almost over. One of my learned friends brokenly remarked that the hitherto potential energy was rapidly assuming a kinetic aspect. A scout in the bottom of the pile gravely announced that boiling hot water was flowing in a flume directly beneath us. From my position I ob- served the unusual appearance of the big building to our left. Black smoke poured from the tall chimney and hung like a crape over our bin. White steam escaped with a steady hiss from several exhaust pipes. The purr of machinery, the creaking of shafts and cogs, and the slapping of belts served to enliven the scene. Men seemed to be everywhere, testing everything to make doubly sure that all was in perfect running order. To me the scene was fascinating even tho I was filled with evil forebodings. Suddenly and without a word of warning things began to happen. Some rude person pulled a board out from under me and I landed with a splash into the hot water. My friend dropped in right behind me, and the current carried us-slowly towards the factory. We were congratulating ourselves that we were to travel to- gether when lo! we arrived at the first station, the stone-catcher, and I parted with my friend forever. Indeed, it was with a heavy heart that I proceeded on my way. VVhen at last I dried my eyes with rag-weed and looked up, I thought that I had entered a circus tent instead of the factory. Directly in front of me was a wonderful ferris-wheelg and I welcomed it joyfully as a means to forget my sorrow. XVhen I was seated and strapped in, I learned to my horror that it was not a ferris-wheel but a beet washer. No one but myself can realize how I hated to be washedg but I decided to make the best of it as I had gone too far to retreat. Kind readers, that was only an elementary begining of my troubles. After I had received a good bath many unpleasant things happened with alarming rapidity. I was roughly thrown from the top of the washer, and landed on my nose in a long trough. Much against my wishes I slid down this trough into a tangle of revolving paddles. These removed my lovely coat of grass and weeds. VVhile being conveyed on rollers to the foot of an elevator a man wrested from me the last of my acquaintances, a brown, half rotten stick of wood. The elevator Caf- ried me up and up until I began to wonder how long it would take me to get down. VVhen my mind righted itself again, I found to my embarrassment that I was being weighed. I was just beginning to blush when my journey downward was suddenly continued. With a smothered groan I plunged thru space and landed in a heap in a big tank. This tank was a beet slicer. At the time I thought I was in quicksand because I kept continually settling down. The result was tragic. l became the victim of a row of shiny, revolving knives that cut me into long, round strips, a little smaller than a lead pencil. For an instant I thot that they were going to make noodles out of meg but I was wrong. I was conveyed on running belts to a big, heavy iron cell and locked in. But that was not enough. Someone almost drowned me with water, and then proceeded to cook me with live steam. The result- was that -the water absorbed my sweeter nature. I had reached a crisis and, in one quick decision I cast my lot in my sweeter nature, and found myself in a liquid state. I was so unstable then that I became very seasick. I was not sorry, however, that I made the decision I did because the other part of me, the pulp as men called it, was dried, baled up, and sold to farmers. Finally I was released from the cell and allowed to flow into a measuring tank. There I was measured. A man also took my temperature: and, by means of a Beaumi spindle, determined how sweet I was. Then he opened a valve and dropped me thru the bottom of the tank down onto a centrifugal pump. This pump whirled me up about forty feet into a heater. It was so hot there that I be- came boiling mad. What had I done that I should be treated so! My next ex- perience, however, put me into a better frame of mind. Hitherto I had been a dreadful black color. But I was pumped into the sachron mixed and mixed with a compound of lime and unrefined molasses. That process gave me a most charm- ing tan color. When a bell rang twice I was sent, by means of gravity, to first carbonation. There I was gassed. I shall never forget that experience. How I longed for a gas mask! I shall not try to tell how I sufferech My last thot as I became unconscious was that I would give a thousand dollars for just one breath of fresh air. When I came to my senses several minutes later, I found myself in the juice boiler. I heard someone say that I had just been thru the presses. VVhat happened to me there I do not know, but it is a safe bet that it was nothing pleasant. But I let by-gones be by-gones and thot only of the present. I heard the young fellow who was operating the boiler tell his friend that the next thing was to thicken me up. I began to wonder what sort of a thrill that would be, and quickly found out. A large valve was opened and I began to get warm around the collar. But I was getting used to heat so did not mind it very much. I danced and tore around in the boiler and was having a swell time when something happened. It seems that my actions were not good for my. health. The operator threw some cottonseed oil upon me and I soon became quiet. A little later he sent me to the evaporators. That was a fine place. I was boiled continually but did not mind that. An air All-, N -tri, 1-- ' l,+fQk'2XQ'i' ..- 3 pump maintained a partial vacuum where I was, thereby decreasing the atmospheric pressure upon me, and, as a result, lowered my boiling point. Indeed, I have no fault to find with the treatment I received at that station.- Although I did not realize it at the time, I was not to continue much longer in a liquid state. From the evaporators I was sent to the sulphur station. The fumes were terrible. I coughed and strangled and my eyes felt like two balls of fire in my head. The fellow who was the cause of my discomfort said that he was taking the alkalinity out of me. I don't believe it tho because I did not feel any different when I got thru. The next station I enjoyed immensely. From the sulphur tanks I was sent to the fitters. There I was forced thru strips of canvas. That took all the pieces of pulp and other foreign matter out of my system, and I felt much better. One thing that immensely pleased me was that no heat was re- quired in this operation. Next I strayed into the pony evaporators. I had thot that I was thick, but for the first time I then began to learn what the word actually means. A big, sour looking fellow boiled me and boiled me until I began to wonder if I looked anything like a boiled owl. I had heard tell of something by that name. When I was so thick that I could just run freely I was sent to the sugar boilers. There I was boiled about three hours longer. You can imagine how surprised I was to find that I was beginning to look like hot fudge. When the operator discovered my condition he shut off the steam, opened the outlet valve and let me flow into a huge V-shaped pan. I was in the pan just long enough to hear someone say that its contents weighed about forty thousand pounds. Then I felt myself slipping and landed with a mushy splash into a centrifugal machine. I wondered what would happen next. The name of the machine should have told me. A tall, skinny man then threw a dipper full of blue water into me and then began to spin me. Talk about whirl! I have never to this day forgotten what the words 'centrifugal' and 'spin' mean. I cannot understand how it was that my mind kept straight all the while I was being revolved. It did, nevertheless. I tried my level best to stay in the middle of the machine, but could not. Therefore, there was nothing for me to do but sprawl all around the inside of the machine. And, in that ungraceful position I waited. Finally the tub stopped with a jerk and I got a good look at myself. To my surprise and joy I saw that I was no longer a liquid but beautiful, pure white, damp sugar. The next hour just flew by. Now, if the fates be willing, my history will soon be finished. From the centrifugal I was elevated to the floor above. There I was dropped down into a revolving drum that dried me much better than any Turkish towel could done. But I must hurry because I see a little girl approaching me. I was next dropped into the sugar box, then weighed and sacked, and finally piled on the top of a huge stock of similar bags. It was not until then that I realized how tired I was. So I took one last look at myself and went to sleep. When I awoke I found myself herein--readers, farewell. -DONALD NORTH, '20, OUR FLAG.

Alias vs. Alias If I hadn't been blessed with red hair, a restless, adventurous spirit, a love of romance and the country, if I had not been determined to have my way, if I had not happened to read Just Once and liked it, if I had not written-but here, I am hastening ahead of my story and all I meant to say was that if I had only been different than I am and had done differently than I did, I would not be what I am now and I would not be wishing with all my heart this very minute that I were twenty instead of eighteen, and that a certain young man, very good looking and nice, were here beside me, looking into my brown eyes and telling me nice things. But what's the use of wishing when you have a dad that wants to help you out but can't because you have a mamma that's got old-fangled notions about reputation, family traditions and the age at which a girl should marry, and that you can't reason with because she always looks at you with gray, bored-beyond- words eyes and says sedately, Isabelle, you disgust me tremendously. There's nothing to do but follow that self-satisfied person's advice who said, Grin and bear it, and go on grinning until you stretch your mouth out of shape and your patience, nerves and everything else. That's what I'm doing. My great happiness came about last spring when I, at the romantic age of seventeen, almost eighteen, decided I needed country air and a complete get- away from the sordid, hypocrital life in New York. But I was aware of the fact that to suggest such at thing to mama would only meet with a final and very em- phatic rejection, for she would say that a young lady's place was at home until the season should permit her going to the sea shore. So I wisely kept my mouth clamishly closed until an inspiration should come. And finally it came when I Visited Mrs. Gregory, wife of our family doctor. Here let me explain that Dr. and Mrs. Gregory were the proud possessors of a poodle valued at a goodly sum, and it was while I was thinking what an insignificant creature it was and pondering over the fact that presumably sensi- ble people like the doctor and his wife could lavish affection upon such an unappreciative animal, that the inspiration came. And, as I always follow up my inspirations, this one did not pass unchallenged. Tho next day the valuable poodle was gone from the Gregory domicile, and there tears, frantic cries and frenzy reigned. The doctor offered great rewards, the poodle's picture was put in the paper, and it made my heart throb with disgust to see the general hub-bub caused by the disappearance of that ball of fuzz who was then peacefully reposing in my wardrobe until I should consider the time ripe for completing my plans. Two days afterwards, while driving in the country, I accidently Cput great accent on that word, please,j found the mourned-for animal in the vicinity of a farm house, and never was a prodigal son greeted with more tears of joy, hugs, and lucious tidbits than Fiji. Nor was I neglected in the home-coming welcome. It was at the point when the Doctor said he would give me or do anything I asked of him, that I decided the strategic time was come, and beconning him to a secluded corner, I told him that I was craving country air and that he, only, could be instrumental in getting it for me. Even if he must fabricate a little, he should tell my parents that I was in delicate health and must have at least three weeks of sunshine and fresh air at Meadowbrook, N. Y., immediately. fW'hile on a motor trip once we had stopped at a farm there for a drink and the place had struck my fancy.j The Doctor declared with a great wink that I did look run down and far from well, and thus he informed my mother who naturally took his word, even if she wouldn't mine, and packed me off to Meadow- brook' the following day. Now, perhaps I have gone into unnecessary detail concerning this little escapade, but had it not been for it, I should never have got to the farm, and had I never got to the farm I would never have done what I did perhaps, and had I never done that-well, I would never have met whom I did meet. So there you are! That's the way the world moves. , The farm was a dream, Mr. and Mrs. Dyer, the farmer and his wife, were lovely, and for a week I was perfectly happy, finding plenty to amuse and in- terest me. I played with the strange animals which heretofore I had never seen, except in pictures, movies and dreamsg I took long walks in the woods and learned to distinguish between the moo of a cow and the croak of a bullfrogg I helped with the housework and even learned to climb a tree, which is quite a difficult proceeding for one who has attained the age of almost eighteen and whose limbs are not as agile as they once were. But after that week time dragged until in desperation I was forced to hunt up some magazines fthe Dyers, desiring to appear literary, took a number of them,J and read. The first story my eye fell upon was entitled Just Once, by Robert Mayville Ross, and I read it. l loved it and read it again. The heroine was the dead image of me with the exception that she had blonde hair instead of firey-red. And the story was so cutely written. A man must be a wonder who could write like that, thought I, and, moreover, none but a young man could express such sentiments. And then, an inspiration came, and in less than five minutets my fountain pen was flittering across writing paper. I was writing to Robert Mayville Ross. I told him how his story had stirred my emotions and I begged him to sacrifice a few moments of his sacred time and write to me, telling me all about himself. But I did not sign myself Isabelle Ainsley. I was a hit timid so decided on the pseudo-nym of Marcia Jocelyn. Then, two days later my heart nigh jumped from its socket when a stunning little roadster drove up to the farm gate and an equally stunning young man of about twenty-three years climbed out and approaching Mrs. Dyer, asked if Miss Marcia Jocelyn lived there. Mrs. Dyer was just in the act of shaking her head negatively when I rushed upon the scene and declared that Miss Jocelyn was a dear friend of mine and was having some very private mail sent to my address, as she didn't wish her family to ever suspect anything about a certain matter. etc. Robert Mayville Ross ffor I had decided it was none other than heJ was blushing and breathing oddly, and I also became confused and would have given myself away entirely had not Mrs. Dyer came to the rescue by inviting the young man to have a refreshing drink and lunch for she jedged he'd drove all the way from Noo York by the looks o' his autymobylef' And, bit by bit, we got acquainted. But, as usual, I did a foolish thing, for I blurted out, I bet a cookie I know your name! He bet a cookie I didn't, and I lied and said I'd seen a picture of him in a magazine once and he was the dandy story writer, Robert M. Ross. Then imagine the damper to my spirits when he informed me that he was Hugh Parker, a chum of Bob Ross. I was awfully disappointed at first but soon realized with joy that here was a peachy chance to find out things about my ideal writer. So I pumped and pumped poor Hugh and when he was completely exhausted and I had decided that Bob wasn't really as nice as his friend, he suddenly exclaimed, But you haven't told me your name yet! Then I was in a pickle. I wouldn't tell him my own name for family reasons, Marcia Jocelyn was now a dear friend, and if I gave a new name Mr. or Mrs. Dyer would as like as not pop in just then and call me Miss Ainsley and spoil it all. But he was waiting for an answer and I just had to give some name so stuttered out Mary Brown. His face fell a mile and I could have kicked myself for not dubbing myself Caroline Maye, or Evelyn Newton,', or some- thing else pleasing to the ear of a man. But now I was Mary Brown and if only I could remember it and not change it by mistake to Annie Jones or Nellie Smith, I was safe Cafter I had warned the astounded Mr. and Mrs. Dyer that I was no more Isabelle Ainsley but just Mary Brown during the stay of Mr. Hugh Parker.j He was just a peach and before I had been with him ten minutes I knew that love had come to me-that I had been pierced by Cupid and that there could never he another than Hugh Parker. I forgot Robert Ross completely. Hugh had informed me that Bob was a dull fellow and as homely as a hedge fence. And here was Hugh the most understanding, interesting creature I had ever met and so handsome. His hair was the jettiest black imaginable, and parted in the middle: his forehead was high and wideg his nose couldn't have been more perfect, his mouth was divine and no Romeo could have had a richer or more melodious voice than his. He was witty as the dickens and saw the funny side of everything in a flash. In three words-He was wonderful. Pretty soon he began questioning me about Marcia Jocelyn and for fun I described myself only exaggerated my ugliness Cif that be possiblej and made poor Marcia the reddest haired, snippiest creature imaginable. In the course of our conversation, which seemed like two minutes but in reality was nearer two hours, he received an inspiration and decided he needed a little vacation and country air. So he became an inmate of the farm house for the week-end, and then the fun began. . I can't describe the agonies I experienced in trying to keep myself Mary Brown and to keep Mr. and Mrs. Dyer from making me Miss Ainsley. Several times I almost collapsed when Hugh, himself, started to address me as Isa-the never got farther than that for the strange expression which probably came across my face must have scared the belle from his lips.J He explained that I reminded him of a certain girl he once knew down south named Isabelle. So, as I had never been lower than Frankfort, Ky., I did not consider myself as having been south, and felt safe. , The more I saw of Hugh the morel liked him. I found myself thinking of him night and day, blushing fiercely when'he approached me, and stammering when talking with him. I found that my heart fairly thundered when his sleeve brushed against mine. VVas I really in love? VVhat would mama think if she but knew that I'd fallen in love with a perfect stranger-a thief, for all I knew. But, oh no! He couldn't possibly be anything but a respectable, well reputed young man. just to look at him convinced me of that. And moreover, I began to believe that' he cared a little about me although he had said nothing to give me that impression. Actions speak louder than words, a wise man has said. Then Saturday came and with it the shrivelled little post man in an ancient, Wobbly cart, and with him came mail. I made a dash to greet him but instead of receiving a letter addressed to me, I found myself glaring at the name Robert Mayville Ross. Hugh bounded up at that moment when my mind was in un- imaginable turmoil. I felt my red hair turning scarlet and the freckles popping from my cheeks. I heard myself spitting out indignant words and I saw before me a sheepy faced, very red Apollo. You horrid, horrid worm, you! I bellowed. Why did you tell me you were Hugh Parker and how did you dare to tell me lies about Robert Ross being homely and dull audi Here I realized that I had unintentionally given him a compliment for which he was giving me the dearest of grateful smiles. And here I also realized that the mail carrier had re- turned and to my immense horror was bellowing , Ef I didn't go an' forget this 'ere letter for Miss Is'belle Ainsley, gul durn it! I turned all rainbow hues, grabbed my letter and was for running to the barn to bury my head in the hay-mow, so vexed was I, when I felt an arm forcibly holding me back and heard him gasping excited little sentences into my ear. Isabelle, I knew it must be you, even if you were Mary Brown. I've known you for two years. You've never seen me before. I've never seen you before. But I've known you. I've carried your picture over my heart all this time. You're the dearest littleifjh, forgive me! I know I lied, but you did too and+ He rattled on incoherently and at first I thought he had either gone mad or was quoting The Courting of Eliza. But after he bit by bit recovered his breath and senses and I my self control, we unravelled the little mystery. From a thick, worn leather wallet, he extricated a wrinkled newspaper photo of ME taken at the age of barely sixteen and stuck in the society sheet of a Sunday paper for playing leading lady in a school play, And, confessed he, I liked your face so that I made you the heroine in all my stories-yes, in Just Once. I came to Meadowbrook just for the lark of it, and when I saw my ideal with red hair and freckles, which only add to her attractiveness the really said that, but I know it was for politeness with no regard for truthj I thought I sure was in luck. But when I found she wasn't Isabelle at all but plain Mary Brown I could have howledf' Then, before we knew it, we were telling each other all about ourselves, and when we got to thinking about our Comedy of Errors we nigh split with laughter. I should have ended this long ago but in case your imaginataion will not help you out, I will add this much. He told me that since he had known my picture he had proposed to me at least one hundred times, and I told him that from the moment Hugh Parker climbed .out of his little roadstetr, or rather from the time I had read the first lines of Just Once by Robert Mayville Ross, I had accepted a hundred times-so?-You know the rest. All that remains to be said is that mama fell in a dead faint ,when told of my betrothal, and it took five doctors, more or less, to bring her to. And it took Dr. Gregory and all the force that lies beneath this corrot top of mine to get her to promise me that when I shall have reached my twentieth birthday, Mr. and Mrs. Clifford B. Ainsley will announce the engagement of their daughter, Isabelle, to Robert Mayville Ross. -MARY MOORE, '2o. LOVE. Love is such a strange thing.

There he will find the Scandinavian, the bulky Teuton, the tall and bony Slav, the Oriental, always mysterious, and the Negro, whose forefathers, shipped across the seas as cattle., tilled the southern cotton fields. He has wandered farther north where the labor is a little lighter and where he can see the other side of life. Abraham Lincoln Washington Brown was a gentlemen from the south and a gentleman he was in the full sense of the word. On Saturday afternoon he was seen attired in black shoes with white kid tops, sox, striped and three shades brighter than the natural colors of a tiger, and white duck trousers, quite a contrast to his natural color. His coat was dark blue and a snow-white Panama hat crowned all his earthly possessions. Of course he never omitted his neck- wear, a collar about three inches in height and a bat's wing tie, usually of a pink hue. ' - On other days, excepting Sundays, Abraham wore the dress of a sign poster. This was his occupation since leaving the sunny cotton-fields of Dixie. He knew his art well, too. No other man in Chicago could wield the paste brush with more skill than he. His skill earned him five dollars extra one day. He made a bet that he could paste together an advertisement for a Cleopatra movie blind-folded and he won the stake. Then, his art brought him a con7 siderable sum of money. He could pay his weekly expenses and then have some left to hand over to the man behind the brass bars at the Chicago Union Trust Company. Another reason for his financial success was that he shunned all crap games. The clicking bones held no delight for him. He steered his course wide of the little group of colored men in pool rooms and on sidewalks. He was a success in his mind. Probing a little deeper we find Abraham Lincoln Washington Brown in love, yes, so far in love, that he now possesses a legal permit to claim and marry blossom in Chicago's Darktown. Sure! he will be married next Monday. Saturday night, after a visit to the bank, Abraham went thru all his clothes and threw away the increasing collection of pamphlets, advertisements, and other useless paper that accumulate in a person's pockets. Among them a license he had valued above his life, had flown from his one window to the brick pave- ment below. Here was where trouble began is career in Abraham's life of happi- ness. Sunday morning found Abraham in the usual happy mood, and in his best clothes. On this day he was to purchase the pair of golden beads, the precious circular metal ahat was to represent his life-long relation with pretty Prunella. The Hebrew pawn-shop was open and there he made the purchase. Jacob always had known Abe and now saw that he got the best in his line of goods. The paste brush and bucket were a lonely couple on the day that followed. Since their acquaintance with Abraham Lincoln Washington Brown not once had he been absent on Monday. Could he have been injured or killed? No! Abraham Lincoln Washington Brown was in his glory. Even the sparrows' on the dirty streets seemed to chirp a song of gladness to him. His heart pounded like Thor's hammer. He was in love. He was to be married. He was to be married ta Prunella White, bless her heart. He was dressed in his best. He was ready for the parson. Before making his last call upon his loved one he would satisfy himself that his rings and license were secure. In the pocket of his trim vest he felt the rings but in his coat the license was-gone. In rapid succession, visions appeared before him. He imagined himself suspected of two marriages in three days because he applied for another license. He saw Prunella ascending to heaven on golden wings, never to be his comforting angel. He saw joe Sampson carry off his long sought prize, Prunella.

His little cleaning-up affair of Saturday night came to mind. He appeared quickly on the street below and saw at once that his valuable document had been swept up long ago. Perhaps it might be found in one of the refuse cans at the col- lecting depot a few blocks away. Abraham dashed excitedly down the street to this station. As there were about two dozen receptacles at the place, it was a difficult matter to find the one that contained the certificate. He grasped one can after the other upset each and examined the contents. None of them con- tained satisfaction for his excited mind. He would have to locate the man whose fortune it may have been to find his marriage license, the man who did the sweeping. At twelve o'clock noon, Abraham Lincoln 'VVashington Brown rapped at the door at the home of the street-sweep in the middle of the Italian settlement. A small girl answered. He immediately made known his loss and gave a good description of the document, mentioning the small detail of Prunella's name which was in- scribed upon it. Oh, exclaimed the girl, disappearing behind the door and returning immediately with a piece of paper in her hand, Hees disa it? Me fada think him Liberty Bond. Abe Lincoln recognized his paper, and slipping a crisp bill into the girl's hand made haste to I'runella's home. The colored parson smiled when he asked, Do you all take dis heah Prunella to be yo lawful wedded wife? Mr. Abraham Lincoln Vlfashington Brown also smiled, happy in the thot that Prunella was his. Mrs. Abraham Lincoln Vllashington Brown, too, has happy. Both were happy with each other. If any one doubts the truth of my story, a visit to Chicago and a glimpse of the three little, black Browns, Abraham, Lincoln and VVashington, will con- vince the skeptic. -FELIX GLAZA. Kidnapped What was that! Irene heard a shrill, piercing scream, one of agony. Again and again it sounded, each time worse than before. What should she do? Here she was in the midst of the Everglades with the nearest help two miles away. She would never have been sent but all the men in the dredging camp, of which her father was the head, were busy and couldn't possibly get away. Besides, what harm was there? A well-beaten path to the supply station, for which she was headed, had been made. The only danger was of tough men from the timber camps, and had they not left this part long ago? Well, something must be done and that quickly. She sat down on a hollow log to think a minute. Suddenly she jumped up, rigid with horror. Her sister Jane, only fourteen, three years younger than she, had gone for a walk only a little while before. It must be said to Irene's credit that as a rule she had very good common sense, butishe also had a fertile imagination which was now work- ing overtime. It always did when she was excited. The thought of jane made her hasten silently through the dense undergrowth. She was nearing the source from which the sounds came when she stopped again. Her worst fears were realized-it WAS a man. She could hear his harsh laugh as he threatened Jane, whose screams had abated in order to listen to the man, but nowland then Irene heard a low moan. Her courage returned and she went swiftly forward. One more branch to part and then Irene did a queer thing- she sat down rather limply. There was jane, bound to a tree and issuing shrieks loud enough'to split the eardrums, while twelve-year-old Ted was playing the part of the kidnapper. As Irene appeared Ted broke off with an Oh! she has to spoil it every time, and turned around with a disgusted air. Jane and Ted! Irene gasped. You ought to go on the stage. I was nearly scared out of my wits when I heard those screams. And YOU ought to harness your imagination, returned Ted unsympatheti- cally and walked off. -MARY MARTIN, '24. hat rouble-Nlaking Little Chinese God It was St. Patrick's eve and Marcia Ronald was giving an informal dance to a few of her most intimate friends. Those who had been invited had looked for- ward to the event with great anticipation, and they had felt certain superiority over those who had not been fortunate to be listed among lXlarcia's most intimate and closest friends, for Marcia was a great favorite among the Darwin College students, and she was loved by them all. Her father, Professor A. J. Ronald, president of Darwin College, would often remark to himself, when he saw Marcia surrounded by a group of admiring friends, It's a mystery to me that Marcia isn't spoiled. She must have inherited her mother's sweet, unspoiled disposition. Then he would cough and blink his pale-blue eyes and quickly wipe his glasses, for Marcia's mother had died when Marcia and her brother Sydney were very small, and Professor Ronald still felt the loss keenly. This particular evening, as Marcia stood receiving her guests, her father could not help noticing how beautiful she was and how much she was beginning to resemble her mother. Her pale-green party dress and her dainty slippers and stockings to match seemed just the right shades to set off her ruddy-gold hair, that shone as the light caught it. Her cheeks were pink with excitement and the healthful glow of youthg her dark, violet eyes were fringed by long, dark. silky eye-lashes-a striking contrast to her golden hair, her dimples, one in each cheek, were constantly hiding and then peeking forthg and her neck and shoulders gleamed ivory-white above the bodice of her shimmering gown. However, not only Professor Ronald noticed how beautiful she looked this evening, but one young man, as he gazed upon this vision, felt his heart pound- ing so fiercely that he thought everyone must hear it, and when she turned toward him, and stretched out a soft, white, slender hand for him to greet, and t-hen said, Oh, Jack, I am so glad that you came! he felt that he heard the angels in Heaven calling to him. Marcia was not wholly unconscious of this young man's affections 'for her and she, by no means disliked him. NVho could help liking good-looking jack Marlowe, with his dark-brown, almost black, wavy hair, his frank, honest dark-blue eyes, and his sturdy, athletic figure? just a word in explanation-Jack was a Senior at Darwin College at the present time. With but a little help from his parents he had worked his way through Darwin. Professor Ronald liked him very much, and Syndey, Marcia's brother, called him a brick. j And now the Ve1'y last guest had arrived, so all were led by Marcia to the ball-room on the third floor, at the top of the long winding stair-case. As the doors of the ball-room were thrown open, many were the Obs and the Ahs and the How exquisitesn and the How wonderfuls from the feminine guests, while the masculine guests could be heard to sap Ripping, Great, Stunning, and f'Clever. The ball-room was bathed in a soft green light, that lent a fascinating glow to all parts of the room. The walls were decorated with the grotesque figures of the fairies and elves of green and white. The ivory-white French windows on different sides of the room were open, and an alluring balcony could be seen, opening out from each one. Inviting davenports, covered with soft green throws, tempted one from different nooks in the room. Palms, plants and flowers were displayed artistically about. In one corner was a bower or bank of palms, and soon from this came the irrestible strains of the orchestra in an invitation to dance. The young people waited for no other invitation but soon coupled off and started to dance. Although Marcia was besieged on all sides by partners for this first dance, she refused them all for Jack, who, standing apart from the others, asked her with his eyes. Soon the floor was covered with graceful, swirling couples-all the girls like gay butterflies in their light-colored gowns.-a striking contrast to the black evening suits of their partners. It was, indeed, a pretty scene. During the evening, while the orchestra was playing a soft, dreamy waltz, to the astonishment of the guests, the green glow that had previously filled the room, began to fade. A lavender glow, a most beautiful shade, took its place, then a blue- that soft blue of the skies on a mid-summer day, gradually took the place of the lavender lightg next a soft pink glow shed its light over allg then, one by one, all the colors of the rainbow came forth and, with their ever-changing lights. When at last the colors faded and the soft green returned, the guests looked at each other as il waking from a dream. Soon the clock struck twelve and the guests were served a lavish supper in the spacious dining room down stairs. Professor Ronald at the head of the long table beamed on the young people, nearly all of them students at Darwin. He told stories and anecdotes that held the interest of all. He related the legend of an ancient Chinese curio, worth thousands of dollars, that he had discovered in an old Chinese temple on his wanderings in the Orient two years before. VVhen he had finished the legend there were cries of Oh, do please show the curio to us, Professor Ronald. NVe hade heard so much about it and we are so anxious to see it. Oh, do show it to us, Professor. lNhy, really, I had no idea that the curiosity concerning my curio was so great, replied Professor Ronald, laughing, or l certainly would have shown it to you before. So, as soon as the guests left the table, they followed Professor Rouald to his den. Most of the young people were rather disappointed in the curio, for it was simply a small Chinese god, about five inches high, made of some material like bronze, with firey-red rubies for eyes. Not so the case with Jack Marlowe, how- ever. He, at any rate, was not disappointed in the curio. The little god seemed to fascinate him with its eyes of living fire and with a sardonic grin upon its little face. The others poked fun at him, for he simply stood spell-bound before it, and seemingly powerless to move. Dosen't it need cleaning, dad? broke in Sydney, as they turned to leave the room. It seems to me that you had better send it to Hewitt's to be cleaned and shined up. Yes, Sydney, it does need cleaning, replied his father, but you know how absent-minded I am about such things. The others laughed at- this remark, for the Professor's absent-mindedness had long been a joke among them. Many a time he could be seen walking down the street on a warm summer day with the sun shining brightly, carrying an umbrella over his head, and wearing over-shoes on his feet. Jack lingered long after the rest of the young people had returned to their dancing, alone with the little god. He fingered the curio and played with it as a child with a new toy. Its flaming eyes seemed to mock him and hold him power- less to move. He forgot all about his friends upstairs and the dancing they were enjoying, until the was aroused from his reverie by the sounds of Sydney and his father in the adjoining room, as they discussed the trip Sydney was to take to New York, starting late that night. Jack hurriedly rushed from the room and hastened upstairs to join his friends. He found them still dancing and having a gay time. But, oh, how they did tease him about his sudden affection for a little Chinese god! He took their teasing good naturedly, although his face flushed a dark red, and he felt very conspicuous and foolish. Soon the orchestra started to play the strains of Home, Sweet Home, that piece that all lovers of dancing hate to hear at parties, for they realize that it means the last dance. Oh, what a scurry there was among the young men to se- cure a partner and not miss any of the last dance! Jack sought out Marcia, amid a group of friends, and before the eyes of some of her most ardent admirers, he whirled her off into the dance, in spite of the glowing looks that were cast him. Too soon the dance was over and the party had to end, just as all good times have to end finally, no matter how much we want them to last a little bit longer. lVhen one of the guests, on departing, announced that it had been the most success- ful dance that he had ever attended at a private home, all the others agreed that it was their experience, also. Jack lingered at the door with Marcia, after the other guests had gone, and he felt that there was something that he must say to her, that he ought not to say, and that he could hardly refrain from saying. However, after much talk about trival matters, he found that the words that he wished to say stuck in his throat and would not come out, so hastily muttering l'Good-night, Marcia, I had the most wonderful time, he hurriedly left the house, leaving a young lady, standing in the door-way, somewhat startled at the abrupt departure of her guests. However the next day, as Jack was busy studying in his room he heard Jeb, the colored boy, who did the errands in his Frat house, coming up the stairs. Heah, Mistah jack, is a message 0' somethin' from Professar Ronald, said Jeb, handing a white envelope to Jack. Thank you, Jeb, replied Jack, as the colored boy left the room. VVhat could this contain? thought jack as he fingered the envelope, half- feeling a presumption of approaching evil. However, he opened the envelope and hurriedly glanced over the written words. VVhen he first read the note over he did not gain the full significance of it, but after reading it a second time, the whole import of the message was im- planted in his mind, and he grew sick with horror. This was the content of the note: ' My dear jack: Early this morning, when I went to get the Chinese curio, that attracted so much attention last evening, I discovered that it was gone. As you were the last one in the room with the relic, I wonder if you can give me some information as to its sudden disappearance. Yours very sincerely, PROFESSOR A. J. RONALD. ,lack imimediately collected his dazed and scattered senses and then pro- ceeded-to think the matter over logically. NVhen he had meditated a long while in silence, he decided to go to Professor Ronald's home and discuss the dis- appearance of the relic with him. VVhen he reached the Ronald home, he was taken into the Professor's study and there he found Professor Ronald. After the customary greetings Ppof- fessor Ronald said, Can you throw any light on the curio that has suddenly dis- appeared, jack. XVhy, no, I can't, Professor, said Jack. I realize that I was in the room alone with the little god long after the others returned to their dancing, but I assure you that I left it in its proper place. I trust you, Jack, and don't think you had anything to do with its disap- pearance, replied the professor, but you realize what others will say, if the loss of the relic is known. Jack felt suddenly friendless and alone. He knew that Professor Ronald felt that he had not taken the curio, but still evidence pointed to him. Oh, why had he even been so fascinated by that grinning, firey-eyed little god. Now he could not ask Marcia to be his wife until the little god was returned. I will let you know if anything turns up concerning the curio, said Professor Ronald to Jack as he turned to leave the room. 1 Do that, Professor, replied jack, trying to smile although his heart felt like ead. No one can imagine the days that followed for jack. The loss of the curio was still a mystery and nothing had been discovered to throw any light on its dis- appearance. jack never went near the Ronald home to Marcia's surprise and dis- pleasure, for she knew nothing about the lost curio.. He did not mingle with his friends as he had done before and they could not understand him. He grew pale and haggard-looking. He couldn't eat and he couldn't sleep. One day when he was sitting alone in his room, he received a summons to go to Professor Ronald at once. He quickly hastened to him and found the Professor joyfully reading a telegram. Here is the solution of all our trouble, said Professor Ronald, as he handed jack a yellow telegram. As Jack read it, relief came into his face, for it read thus: Took curio to Hewitt's to be cleaned, on way to New York. Forgot to mention fact.-Sydney. Now, have I permission to ask Marcia something? hurriedly asked jack of the Professor. Yes, my boy, you have, replied Professor Ronald, and I think she will ac- cept you. -MARION SCHINDLER.

On September 22, 1919, the first meeting of the year was caller to order by th-- Vice-President for the purpose of electing officers for the ensuing year. The result of the election was that Gladys Noonan was chosen for presidentg Geraldine Brode, secretary, Florence VVestover, treasurer. Later on we elected Clara Boeh- ringer as our vice-president. On October 1, 1919, the names of the new members were voted into the Ecclesia. Soon after this meeting a party was given at the home of our president for the purpose of initiating the new members. December 4, 1919, the Ecclesia girls gave a banquet for the members of the football team. Everyone said he had a good time-especially Emil Gansser, and ne-well, you'd he surprised. February 26, 1920, we elected our new honorary members. VVe were indeed very sorry to have to lose Miss Huneker, but with the help of Miss Killam and Miss Graham, we were able to get back to work again. April 13, at the Y. W. C.

During the second week of September the following officers were chosen: President, Donald McCabeg Vice-President, Gladys Noonan, Secretary, Florence NVestover. VVith these officers installed the school year started with a bang. The several classes were represented in the Student Council by the following: Senior Representatives, Walter Moessner, James E. Duffy, Jr., Charles Iohn- ston, Junior Representatives, john Walther, Gilbert Plum, Kenneth Smithg Sopho- more Representatives, Mary Lou Miller, Hazel Snover and Edwin Westover. At the first meeting of the Student Council the president appointed the fol- lowing standing committees: Entertainment CommittcofChairman, james li. Duffy, Jr., John VValther and Gladys Noonan. Field Day Committee-Kenneth Smith, Chairman, Walter Moessner and Florence Westover. l The work of these committees is to provide for parties and interclass sports. Many parties have been held during the year and the Bolsheviki idea of breaking them up was missing due to the efforts of the Council. The field day was a great success, the number of participants showing a marked increase over that of last year, which proves of its growing popularity. One of the accomplishments of which the Student Council is especially proud is that of having all students excused from final examinations who have an average of ninety or over for the semester. The hearty co-operation of Mr. Sloan and all the teachers who honored the petition of the Student Body is greatly appreciated. Owing to the habit of lower classmen using the junior and Senior cloak rooms, which was already full to overflowing, the president of the Association appointed a probing committee to stop the repetition of the performance. This committee was active and through its efforts more hooks were placed in the hallways and today the congestion is greatly relieved. The Cloak Room Probing committee was com- posed of Walter Moessner, Chairmang Florence Westover and Gladys Noonan. The several other special committees appointed are as follows: Petitions CommitteegChairman, Kenneth Smith, Florence VVestover and james E. Duffy, Jr. Representative Committee-Chairman, Hazel Snovcr, Gilbert Plum and john VValther. Correspondence Committee-Chairman, Florence VVestover, lValter Moessner and Charles Johnston. This year as never before the absence of rowdyism was very noticable. Polic- ing, in the halls is now unnecessary and book-stacks are a thing of the past. Much of the antagonistic spirit has faded and a more solid and unified Student Body has been established. With such rnonentum the Student Association is now moving along with success. Students of Eastern, back the Students Association, back your principal, Mr. Sloan, and pull for a bigger and better Students Association for Bay City's new Central High School. ' -VV. F. M., 120.

But today the dreams of those six fellows who first banded together have almost completely come true. It is a great thing for a club or society to grow but it is a still greater thing to have an aim so high that it will be impossible to reach it. To this we attribute the success and good name of the Council, for we are ever growing and ever working. Today the Council of Thirty has twenty-three members who were chosen for c'uality's sake and not for quantity. 1 The Council of Thirty meets weekly and during the past year have profitted ' ll mroud m ch from the debates, declamations and orations given. XVe are especia y 1 , v ' , ' 1 u of two of our members who have won fame for theinselyes in the State Oratorica and Declamation Contest. But all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and therefore during the year several parties have been given. All of them were with -ice cream, and one of them with the ladies.

Q U KP Z U Music Eastern's musical year has been a very successful one. All the musical organi- zations have been enthusiastic and have accomplished a great deal. The members of the chorus have taken great interest in their work. Programs given by the different members are a special feature. Vocal solos have been ren- dered by Sybal Widmer, Hazel Schissler, Ruth Miller, Ruth Kline, Jennie Newell, Kenneth Cameron and Miss Stevens. Vocal duets by Catherine Bastow and Lois Chapman. Vocal trio by Catherine Snowden, Lois Chapman and Mary Moore. Violin solos by Florian Mueller, Marguerite Schumann and Hazel Jacoby. Piano solos by Miss Palmer, Harold DeRemer, Helen McCullough, Helen Hand, Catherine Snowden, Margaret McNair, Margaret Harrison, Clarissa Vreeland, Gertrude Mc- Leod, Viginia F. Johnston, Louise Heske, Gertrude Taylor and Margaret Carter. A piano duet by Helen MacKinnon and Mr. NVhite. 'Cello solos by Mrs. Stover and Mary Moore. The chorus sang Irish songs at the Community Concert at the Armory March 14. The Orchestra has a very large membership with everyone full of enthusi- asm. It has played a great deal in public, including assemblies, lectures at the Armory, teachers' parties, teachers' institutes, Junior play and many other affairs. The Band is a very prominent organization at Eastern, and is deserving of great praise. In its public appearances it has established the fact that this band is fully as good if not better than that of any high school in the state. -After some suspense as to the matter of the uniforms fitting the members as well as they did last year, all doubts were finally laid at rest when the band appeared in its maroon and gold to have a picture taken. The Glee Club has accomplished great things not the least of them being the developing of self-confidence in the girls so that they now will sing alone. The Cantata The Three Springs, was sung at the Woman's Club and the Teachers' Institute. The cantata Pan was also learned. Mr. Powers, of Mt. Pleasant, spoke in assembly in the interests of musical competition. In the hope of arousing a keener interest in music and a finer appre- ciation of its artistic rendition among high school students, Central Michigan Normal School introduced a new feature in the activities of the week of the annual May Music Festival. This new departure took the form of an Interscholastic Music Contest and was open to students of any high school in Michigan. The date of the contest was May 27 and 28. Four soloists may be entered, a double quartet, mixed quartet, girls' quartet and male quartet. To the high school winning the greatest number of points, the All-Michigan Music Championship Trophey was awarded. This is a cup and will be retained by the school for one year. For all goup numbers pennants were awarded to the winners of first and second place. For the solo class, appropriate medals and pins were awarded to the winners of first and second place. Eastern sent representatives. fAt the time of writing this report, the winners were not as yet an- nounced.J -CATHERINE SNOXVDEN, '20, v Amazons President ............... ....

Gertrude Zingg The Amazon Club has been unusually successful this year in obtaining mern- bers. Campaigns were organized for this purpose and the results were more than satisfactory, we have now more than three times the usual membership. So far only one.party has been held, but the general verdict of that was I had a great time. Large preparations are being made for the annual banquet. Frances Atkins is chairman of the committee and Linda Mertens, Bessie Chanel and Clara Boeh- ringer are the other members, whose duty it is to make it the best yet. But that isn't all-no-sir-ee!! VVe are to have a swimming party at the Y cottage as soon as the weather permits fhcre's hoping it's soonj and as you probably know, swimming produces appetites-you know the rest! Basketball? XVhy, of course we played basketball and beat Vtfestern twice, ffollow our example, boys.j NVe are also indulging in base ball and hikes. In fact. we have more than lived up to our reputation of pep. And now, future Amazons, carry on, follow in our victorious foot-steps. We also showed excellent taste in electing Miss Killam coach and Miss Anschutz honorarv member. Their services have been very commendable and we take this opportunity to thank them. -B. Y. C. VVhy Do Fashions Exist? In all my honest humility I will endeavor to solve this problem, XVhy do Iashions exist? Oh! that is the question. VVhy do they, indeed? Many tedious hours I spent pondering this stupendous question. l went to my extensive library and devoured nineteenth and twentieth century fiction and tho they dwelt largely on the absurdities and beauties of fashions, they told not the reason for them. Ancient volumes of the Puritan Age, those who scorned fashions, offered no enlightment. Still others of the time of Louis XIV, the extravagant age, the time when dress played a large part, they too, failed in an explanation. O! musty scrolls innumer- able l referred to, and found not the answer. The task is laid before me, it is for me to solve. So be it! Let me sew-, which poet was it who said, beauty uuadorncd is beauty- There! isn't that just like a man? In the first place after a man had come to that con- clusion, would it not be the duty of a woman, through all the ages to prove him wrong? It would! For, as they declare in all true womanly Wisdom, XVhat does a man know about it anyway? In the second place, not all of us are beautiful, indeed, sad but true, a very small portion. That being the case, we have to make up our deficiencies with fine feathers so to say. ltloreover, there is born in the heart of every woman a love of finery, nor would I confine it to women. Most assuredly not! But them we'll not go into the Vanities of the male sex. Suffice it to say that the desire for fashions seems to be iuborn, since the beginning of time. - BIESSIE CIIANIEI., '2r.

Gladys Nconan ' Treasurer . . ...... Mr. Martin The football season is long o'er with, and all of the gridiron warriers have quit nursing bruises, and Coach Riker is once again wearing a broad smile, while deep in the hearts of every student at Eastern there is a feeling ,of pride for our championship eleven, which entered the fray with dogged determination and emerged victorious. 'Tis always a gladdened and proud eye that views the Valley Championship Cup, as it reposes in its prominent nook in the trophy case, and many a heart envies the fellows who sacrificed much to help place it there. Eastern scored eighty points, and only forty points were scored against them through- out the entire season. This, if nothing else, is an enviable record. And it might be interesting to note that Speckard, Storrs and Dawson were selected for the All- Valley team. Little difficulty was encountered in disposing of the St. Louis aggregation in the opening game. Though our eleven showed a few weaknesses and the play4 ing was a little slow, it was a great deal peppier and more accurate than had been expected. Then on the following Saturday our eleven, accompanied by two special cars of supporters, journeyed to its XVaterloo at Arthur Hill. Fast and furious was the onslaught, and our warriers were forced to their utmost to ward off the attacks of the down-river aggregation. Cass City proved an easy victim to the well-planned onslaught of our warring eleven. It was on the following Saturday that Detroit Central was our guest for the day, and we entertained them at Clarkson Park for about an hour and a half. Outweighed and outclassed, our team was forced to accept an honorable defeat. VVhen Saginaw Eastern came to Bay City the week following they were determined to return with feathers in their hats, but they received the surprise of their young lives when we handed them a trouncing, the first they had received from us in a good many years. Flint, who had been having trouble with the Valley teams all season, grew in- dignant over some of the rulings of the referee and left the field, awarding us a 1 to o victory. With Thanksgiving came the biggest game of the season, the Eastern-Western game. It was an ideal football day, and the crowd was the largest seen in the park for a number of years. The game was thrilling throughout, and during the entire fray the score was in the balance. The outlook for the coming season is indeed bright. A good number of the letter men will again be in the rankf and with Coach Riker to mould the recruits, we are confident that another championship team can be put in the field. - RIFF RAFF, RIFF RAFF, RIFF RAFF RUFF-EASTERN HIGH SCHOOL?

The quintet was shifted about considerably, and the line-up was never stable. This was due to the result of accidents, ineli- gibility, and other unforseen or unwelcome misfortunes. It is also interesting to note that the second team went through the season with only one defeat slated against them. ' The season was begun at Lansing, whence our court representatives journeyed to cross swords with the M. A. meager score of eleven to six, well fought, and was a credit to ed at the hands of W'estern by Friday our fivesonie journeyed twenty--four to six score. Sagin C. All Fresh team. M. A.

On the following to Saginaw and snowed Arthur Hill under by a aw Eastern ran the gauntlet at the Armory to the tune of forty to twenty-one score. The biggest surprise of the season came when our court representatives journeyed to Owosso and downed the down slate lads Dy a twenty to sixteen score. M. A. C. came back with a forty-two to eighteen tune 011 the following Friday. The Farmers seemed able to cage the ball from every angle, and put up a very spirited game. Before the largest crowd seen on the Armory floors, Eastern was forced to accept the second defeat at the hands of VVestern during the season. The score was twenty-five to nine. Arthur Hill and Saginaw Easten triumphed over our fivesome during the next two games, and thence the season was brought to a close. s MEN WHO PLAYED IN ONE OR MORE GAMES 'l'Don McCabe QCaptainJ Max Biller Carl Boehringer 'Ralph Dystant Fred Dawson Frank Stout Burton Schultz Marvin Sandorf 'ltiiric Speckhard Floyd VVellman Ukllave received E's.J -LEO L.

Pupils have become efficient in the art of putting away their books as the first gong buzzes, and the librarian is more than pleased with the result of the efficiency scheme. I There have been on an average of one hundred-fifty students visiting the library each day, and the total number, if this figuring be correct, is nine thousand students for the semester. 1Poor Sazzman!Q A number of new books have been added to the library which now contains nearly three thousand volumes. There is a new set of encyclopedias, up-to-date fiction and biography, and subscriptions to twelve magazines. Likewise several students have donated odd copies of magazines which assist in making the library such a luring, interesting place and so inviting to the multitudes of scholars or otherwise, who visit it daily. W Bay City, Michigan. My Dear and Unjust Miss Mcllhennyz- For the last week I have suffered mentally over the unjust treatment which I received on a certain NVednesday afternoon, and so to relieve my troubled mind, I am taking this opportunity of explaining my- seemingly noisy attitude. Do you happen to know of any more loud, crashy and discordant instrument of musical torture than an alto horn? If not you should thank the saints, but if you do--may the Lord help you! As you perhaps know, I have a brother, and at the beginning of his high school life he was stricken with a fatal desire for an enormous, shiny, alto horn. Luckily for him, his desire was granted and he became the proud possessor of this horn and a member of the maroon suited High School Band. I will admit, that for the first few weeks of his ownership he quite faithfully rendered some re- markable compositions on this treasure, but as time flew by the queer cat-calls became more and more few and far between, until now, only on Wednesday noons does he keep up his good name. - VV'ell, to go back to my gruesome tale, I was peacefully staying eighth for some trivial frivolity, when lo and behold, I was dreaming, of course. For among all the discords and sweet notes issuing forth, I recognized one of the weird and hair raising notes that only my brother can play. Two seconds later, I realized that I had let forth a loud and hysterical laugh and the icy words, Miss Moore, ninth for you, smote my ears. As the poet says, Oh! if I could utter the 'thoughts that arose in me, Hoping that this situation has been made clear to you, I am, e f Yours humbly, JULIA MOORE. ,ff z 1 154. -:sq X A X f - X V 'ffWf 'M J' N XF ff! ff WH . v-4 454 vf - y J A. f gk 77,5 If ,l 'NAV' if fy' ' ' f ff ' T Us 'fi , , UQQLNQ 4 '. 62 gg!

The Alumni ' VVhen june comes we are 'carried back in memory to the- time when we were Seniors and to Commencement when we wore our caps and gowns and received our diplomas, and to Class Day with its flutter of excitement. We know just how you feel. Seniors, and when you leave high school you will realize what a good time you have been having. Everyone of us looked forward with the greatest anticipation to the junior Play this year. When we learned that a number of people were disappointed he- cause all of the seats were sold we realized that Eastern is making quite a reputa- tion along a dramatic line. A During the spring vacation Ecclesia gave the Alumni of that society a party. The out-of-town guests were Margaret Beckett, Agnes Diehl and Caroline evy. We are very proud to claim one of the Alumni who is now a member of the faculty of Eastern, Miss Anchutz, made a remarkable reputation at the University of Michigan, and now she is proving herself an excellent teacher. It is said that a prophet is without honor in his own country, but this is one time at least when that is not true. In other cities the Alumni give a banquet each year and the Seniors are welcomed into'the association at that time. We are hoping that in the near future something of that sort may be accomplished at Eastern. At the present time the only active organization consisting of the Alumni is the Harriet L. Taylor Memorial Fund Committee. The fund now' amounts to about seven hundred dollars, which is loaned at a small rate of interest to any graduate who needs help while he is in college. At the present time all of the money is being used except about one hundred dollars. , A remark was overheard the other day which is too good to keep. Some one said that the faculty of Eastern was a very wide-awake and active one, and we heartily agree with the person who spoke so wisely. We wish each teacher the greatest of success during the next year, and each student as happy a time during his high school career as we had, and we hope that everyone has the very best of vacations.

I am looking forward to a lovely time. It was signed Alice, Bob read it over four times to be sure he wasn't dreaming and then uttered a long-drawn-out groan. Why was it that he had to be such an everlasting cad? The rest of the bunch didn't get into such scrapes. What in the name of common sense was he going to do? Only a week before, he had asked Kitty Branton. He didn't know how he had happened to ask Alice, anywayg she was just a little washed out imita- tion of the real thing, the regular clinging vine sort. He liked the girls like Kitty: the ones with a little pep to them. Gloomily his thots wandered back to the night before he left home for his fifth term of college. The Watkins had come to call on the Morelands, and, as a result he and Alice Watkins had gone out on the lake in his new canoe-just to try it out, you know. The moonlight must have gone to his head and then-. Bob jammed on his hat and cut for the woods. After ten minutes of breath- less running he reached the trout stream and went plunging recklessly over the rocks. He fervently hoped that he would not meet Professor Wheeler's botany class. He had gone his limit in skipping trigonometry and he didn't wish to be reported. Arriving at his destination, a high rock jutting out over one of Llie deep, dark pools of the stream, Bob gave his mind to his problem. He knew that neither girl would care to be jilted, yet what could he do? He wished there was to be another dance but to quote if wishes were horses, then beggars might ride. Robert Allen Moreland was getting desperate! He coulcln't sit still any longer. He would have to take his chances with the botany class and walk. As I mentioned before, the rock was high and jutting, a regular peninsular, and, as rocks have a habit of doing, faced a little area of smaller rocks. Bob calculated to land on a flat stone not far distant so he jumped accordingly-and missed! It was all over in a minute, a ripping, tearing pain shot thru him and then he slept the merciful sleep of the injured. V Birds, made bold by the stillness, peeped inquiringly at the inanimate form from a safe distance. Chipmunks and red squirrels scampered out to look and re- mained to chatter and seold. The minutes passed, ten-fifteen-thirty, the quiet figure stirred and was silent again. The forest echoed with subdued clamorings. Now a cardinal called its mate, a redstart fanned the air with its tiny wings and gradually above the other noises came a strange, persistent sound. lt didn't be- long to the woods, it was an unniusical, droning strangely like Professor Wlieeler's voice. It fact is was and he was accompanied by the whole class. They came slowly over the rocks and stopped short at the sight in the shadow of The Rock. A strange procession wound around the campus half an hour later. Two of the strongest boys carried Bob on an improvised stretcher of coats and saplings. Then followed another half hour in which Bob mercifully knew nothing, the doctor saw to that. When he at last awoke he was lying in a cool white bed in the tower room of the infirmary. As the breeze parted the curtains he saw his fellow students going into the mess hall. He wasn't hungry, he- was too happy. Three telegraph blanks lay on his bed, one for his mother, one for Alice and one for Kitty. Alice's and K1tty's said the same thing: Fell and broke my leg. Cannot go to June prom. Awfully sorry. ' Bob felt like adding What luck! but he didn't. -HELEN MARTIN, '23. s X xx QV 904. .:' NW N9 QMTWM., A 29' wg-- , N. 0 1 sf A ,g -Z t, 7 el? v.I..s.1t. M mmm 1 A Politic al Speech fVVith apoligies to Lincoln, given before a Bolshevik mob.j Two years ago our fathers brought forth, in the Kingdom of Russia, a new and efficient party, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that harbers are unnecessary. We are now venturing into new worlds. We are building up a political machine which will be second to none, supporting a very popular Bolshevik, W. J. Bryan, and having a firm platform supporting high tariffs, the abolition of amendment No. 18 and doing away with capitalists, or, in other words having equal division of the world's money. As our compatriot, Mr. Levi Lenine, has more than once stated, If you believe in a good thing put your shoulders to the wheel and help push. Now, we want all loyal members of our grand and glorious party to go out into the streets and by-ways spreading this great and righteous belief. There will be times when you will be hissed and hooted at, there will be times when your loyalty will be sorely tried, but, remember this, Columbus did not discover America in a day. This meeting will long be remembered in the annals of the party, it is, so to speak, the starting point of a new American life, the broadening of American ideals. This country is in a very shaky condition, it is for us, the members of the loyal Bolshevik party, to lift it from its rapidly degenerating condition and put it on a firm foundation based on the princi- ples of our great and glorious party. If we do not succeed this time our efforts shall not have been in vain. Slowly and surely our fine ideals and patriotic attitude will be discovered by the American people. It is rather for us to dictate than to be dictated to-we cannot abolish barbers 'till our righteous beliefs are firmly imbedded in the American mind-let us highly resolve that our Loyal ll Bolshevik Party be a power unto itself-put a President in the chair who wi recognize our righteous beliefs and ideas and let us rule the nation-A-of the people- by the people-for the people and thus not perish from the earth. I thank you. --RALPH DYSTANT. ,l,.L..L..- TALENTED ONES There's one named Lloyd Chapman Of the Class of '21, Who can draw on any subject From a sausage to a Hun.

The Dog Pound Mr. and Mrs. Knowitall had lived for seventeen years in peace and tran- quility until their only son, Philander, had reached the inspired age of fourteen. Philander had always wanted a dog from his early childhood days but Mr. Know' itall had not considered himself quite capable of keeping Philander and a dog in the same house. However, on August 12, 1916, Mr. Knowitall came home with ed in smiles. His wife met him at the door, awaiting expectantly his face wreath- some good news, for Ulysses very seldom smiled and talked still less. Said Ulysses, Diana, the raise we have expected is now a Oh, fine! exclaimed his wife, Now I can get that new reality. can opener that Mrs. Jones has been showing me. just then in burst Philander. Hey, Pa! he exclaimed, Jimmie Chandler has got a bull-dog and I want one too. No, Philander, you Oh, but Papa I do 4'Well, Papa, said heart upon having a dog a while. All right, replied 1 can not have a dog. want one so bad, said Philander. Mama Knowitall, since dear Philander has so set his let's get one for him. I can give up my can-opener for Ulysess, I wanted a new blade for my safety razor, but as the agent said the blades needed charging but once every four years I guess I can wait for another year. Hurray, yelled Philander, as he scooted out of the door to inform the neighborhood of the intended purchase. That night after supper the Knowitall family held a conference. Philander was all for a bull-dog while his father preferred either a fox terrier or a collie, but Mrs. Ulysses Knowitall capped the conference with the announcement that it was to be an African flea-hound or nothing. After a lengthy and very heated discussion they decided to leave it to the discretion of the general public as to their fate in the dog venture. The next day's edition of the Hicksville Independent had this advertisement in its columns: WANTED-A dog. Bring same to the residence of Mr. Ulysses Knowitall any time before eight-thirty this evening. ' The Condition of purchase was that each owner was to tag his or her dog with the name and price and leave it at the Knowitall residence for a day, at the end of which time the desirable dog would be announced. The unlucky own- ers could then come for their various charges. At fivefthirty the dogs began to arrive. First came Miss Amy Fry with her pet Irish beagle-hound. She was positive that hers was the logical dog for Philander. Then in rapid succession came Dr. I. Killemall, Mrs. Sampson, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Applesky and others claiming their dogs to be the best in the thriving metropolis of Hicksville. The climax came with the arrival of Miss Amanda Tubbs, the fattest woman in Hicksville. She brought her special imported English flea-hound. Mrs. Know- itall thought it wonderful, but Philander declared he wanted a dog that could be seen with the naked eye. In all thirteen dogs were assembled in the spacious basement of the home of Mrs. Ulysses Knowitall on the night of August 13, 1916, when the family retired for their night's rest. The night of August I3 made history for the Knowitall family. As soon as the family got nicely asleep the four best hoxvlers began to harmonize .in one corner of the basement. Soon other dogs voiced their applause and approval of the proceedings. Now, Ulysses had never been known to utter a profane word, but upon being awakened from his pleasant dreams all the oaths he had ever heard came forth in one volly, and all on account of four innocent dogs on pleasure bent. He sallied forth to quell the disturbance. Upon reaching the sitting room, in his haste and aided by the darkness, he stubbed his tone on the library table, then caromed off and cracked his shins on the rockers of one of the chairs. This episode put him in a very questionable frame of mind, He finally reached the basement and put a stop to the early morning musicale, after which he proudly marched upstairs with a very self-satisfied feeling. - All was serene and calm for a few hours when Mr. Appelsby's fox terrior notieed Amanda 'I'ubb's flea-hound, l'riseella, in a nice soft basket. He immediately startecl out in quest of the new lodging place. He nosed the pride of Amanda Tubbs out ol' his basket and euddled himself into the newly acquired habitation. But English flea-holinds of blood are not to be denied, as history proves. Two of I'rieclla's gentlemen friends proved very ehivalrous and took upon themselves the work of reinstating her. The dogs quickly took sides and a free-for-all fight was the result. That fight is still talked about in Hicksville. Mr. Knowitall lost a finger in some dog's mouth and also his temper, lint dogs will fight and it took more than Mr. Ulysses Knowitall to stop that fight. The owners of the dogs were hastily summoned and after a time of hard work the dogs were finally separated. Then each owner took his or her dog or the remains home to a nice soft box, resolving never to let them out of their sight again. If a stranger had been on the main street of Hicksville in the early morn- ing hours ot' August 14, he would have wondered whom the Klu Klux Klan had been initiating or raiding, so nearly did the night-gowned heroes and heroines resemble that ancient and honorable order. As for Ulysses Knowitall, he is very superstitious, and to be on speaking' terms with him it is best not to mention the word DOG in his pre-senee. -RALPH IJYSTANT. 921739 Overheard by the Cloak Room Mirror Oh! girls, does my hair look alright?

The letter, which read as follows, was plainly the cause of her annoyance: Dear jane:-I am just writing this note to ask a great favor of you. As you already know, Henry's little boy David has no home now that both Margaret and Henry are dead. John, of course, has more now than he can take care of, and Margaret has no brothers or sisters. If I had a home of my own there would be no difficulty for I should dearly love to have little David come and live with me. Will you take him, jane? I know what a great deal I am asking of you, for we all-understand that you do not care for children, boys es- pecially, but really there is no other place for the poor child to go. If you take him I am sure you will soon grow to love him. , Please take Davie for your brother Henry's sake. Your loving Mother. It really is most unreasonable of Mother to expect me to have the boy live here. Any way, what do I know about caring for children? A boy will be in mis- chief all the day long. Of course, I will have to take him, there is nothing else to do. 1 can't let my own brother's child go to strangers, but I certainly wish there was some other way out of the difficulty. Miss Burton rose, and walked across the room with a firm and stately tread and rang the bell for the servant. A stout woman, who appeared to be about fifty, entered the room in answer to her ring. Martha, please prepare a room for my seven-year-old nephew who is going to live with me. Have it ready for Wednesday. You had better prepare the south- west room, Miss Burton said in her low, precise voice. Yes, ma'am, answered Martha, as she left the room closing the door care- fully behind her. Once out of the room Martha began to run to the kitchen to tell the news to Susan, the cook. A boy seven years old is coming here to live with Miss Burton, she gasped, as she almost fell into the kitchen. Gracious! A boy here! Land sakes! You don't mean it, do you Martha? Of course, I mean it, replied Martha. Obi Peter, she cried, as a white-haired coachman entered the room, W'hat do you think the latest is? Sure, I don't know. Must be pretty exciting by the looks of you two. A seven-year-old boy is coming to live here at the Poplars with Miss Bur- ton, shouted Martha, in her excitement, a boy with Miss Burton. Peter was speechless' for a moment. Why, she said she couldn't endure boys, he said at last. What will she say when he tracks mud in the hall, I wonder. And I never knew a boy yet that didn't, said Susan. Martha answered, I'm sure I don't know, but- Say, Peter interrupted, whose kid is he, any way? Any relation? She said he was her nephew, informed Martha, eagerly. Then, it must be Master Henry's boy. I taught Master Henry to ride his pony, and before that he used to ride on my back. Master Henry was killed about a month ago and his wife, too. Miss Margaret used to live 'bout ten miles from here and Master Henry went to see her nearly every day. I used to saddle jess for hint and he would gallop down the road, I can just see him now riding so straight. Miss Burton diclnlt use to dislike boys then. She was the belle of the town. She always said she disliked boys since she had that quarrel with Sidney Rutherford. Shenever went to many parties after that. He didn t either, for that matter. Everyone thought they were going to be married and then that hot temper and her impatience got the best of her. Too bad, too bad, for they would have made a fine couple. But I haven't time to sit here thinking about might-have- beensf' The next VVednesday Peter drove to the station to meet Miss Burton's nephew. He arrived just as the train drew up in front of the small village station. The only person to leave the train was a small, chubby boy, carrying a suitcase nearly as large as himself. There, thought Peter, there he is. So he went up to the small boy and said, You're Master David Burton, ain't you? fs if k M I W' ai- lf The boy nodded a shy assent and Peter continued, I'm Peter. Your Aunt sent me to bring you home. Give me your bag and we'll go now, 'cause the horses don't like to stand long. Are you the Peter that taught Daddy to ride his pony? inquired the little fellow, glancing up with his dark blue eyes. .'Yes, my boy. I taught Master Henry to ride his pony. He was such a rascal, too. Always in mischief. Rosy, she was the cook then, couldn't keep cookies at all. Miss Jane was just about as bad. Oh, your aunt was a regular tom boy then. Peter had started on the subject he loved best to talk of and his audience was certainly an attentive one. All the way to the Poplars Peter entertained David with stories of the pranks of Master Henry, and jane, the toni-boy. Then a sharp turn in the road brought the Poplars, Miss Burton's residence, in plain sight. David cried out, There they arc. just like two sojers guarding the gates. Those trees, I mean. The two tall poplar trees he referred to certainly did impress one as senti- nels guarding the gates. Better get out here, said Peter, as he stopped the horses. I'll have to drive around to the stables. There's your aunt now. Miss Burton, hearing the rattle of wheels, had stepped out on the wide veranda. How do you do, David? Have you had a pleasant journey? said Miss Bur- ton, as her nephew approached her. Yes, Aunt Jane, returned David in a meek little voice. Come into the library, David, so we can talk. Now, she said, when David had sat down on the edge of a straight-backed chair, I have told Martha to give you the room your father had when he was a boy. I am sorry to say that I will not be able to be at home much this summer as The Child NVelfare Association keeps me quite busy. You may go to your room now, if you wish, she concluded, in her quiet voice. Yes, Aunt jane, replied David quietly, for Aunt Jane was not as he ex- pected her to be. Had not Peter told him she was a tom-boy? David could not in.agine that tall, still figure, with such a cold, precise voice, a tom-boy. Early the next morning David ran out of the house, down a path past the stables. The path had a strange fascination for the little fellow. It led to a small river with banks covered with trees, shrubs and flowers. When David reached the end of the path he gazed around with delight, Then he began making numerous plans for the good times he would have in this delightful spot. One thing had been overlooked by David, however, In the tall grass under a shady tree a man with a merry face and white hair lay, holding a book which he had evidently been read- ing. VVhere did you come from, my little man, he asked in a pleasant voice. From that big, white house over there, David answered, pointing in the direction of the path. - Then you live with Miss Burton, continued the stranger, somewhat sur- prised. I didn't know she'had anybody living with her. She's my aunt. I just came yesterdayf, explained David willingly, for the strange man with laughing eyes appealed to him. Has your book got any interest- ing stories in it? he asked eagerly. No, it hasn't, but I know lots of stories. Do you want to hear some of them? Oh, yes, please, answered David, settling himself to listen. Vtfhen the gentleman had finished two delightful stories David asked if he would tell him more the next day. Yes, sonny, come and I'll tell you some more. Every bright morning after that David went down the path to the gentle- man, who told such interesting stories. Of course, David told his Aunt Jane about the nice man who told him such lovely stories. Aunt jane was quite relieved to find David wasn't as much bother as she had anticipated, and that he seemed to be quite happy. She had no idea who the story teller could be but finally David's description aroused her interest. One day she determined to follow him and discover who the mysterious stranger might bc, David, listening with eager ears to a tale of how Master Fox got caught in his own trap, was the first to spy Miss Burton. Oh! he exclaimed, there is Aunt Jane. Aunt jane, come and meet my nice man. David ran forward, taking his Aunt's hand, fairly dragging her to the stranger, who had risen hastily when he saw her. This is the nice man who tells me stories, Aunt Jane. And turning to the stranger, This is my Aunt jane. Oh! exclaimed Miss Jane, startled out of her usual self-possession. Good morning, Dr. Rutherford. I hope my nephew has not troubled you greatly. Oh, no, it has been a pleasure to be with him. VVe're great chums, are we not, David? . Yes, Aunt jane, let's ask my nice man to dinner, tonight. You ask him, won't you? lbw Miss Burton showed signs of embarrassment only for a moment. Then she spoke, Certainly I shall invite your friend to dinner. Then turning to Doctor Rutherford she said, VVon't you come and have dinner with David this evening at six o'clock. I shall be delighted to, he replied. - Promptly at six the Doctor entered the gate and approached the house. David was on the lookout for him and welcomed him with great delight. Miss Burton did not appear until dinner time. The conversation was mainly between the doctor and David. Miss Burton said as little as possible. After dinner the guest still lingered. Even when it grew dark and neared David's usual bed time he continued to stay. Finally, when it was quite late Miss Burton sent David to bed. Much to her surprise Dr. Rutherford asked her to show him the old apple tree he had climbed as a boy. They walked together, neither saying a word until they reached the tree. Janie, won't you tell ine why you never answered my note? asked the Doctor, quietly. What note? replied Miss jane sharply. VVhy, the note telling you I was sick and could not come as I had told you I would, he explained. I never received any such note, she answered. Didn't Roger Wakecliff give it to you?

Our happiness will be all the greater for waiting. Miss Burton broke in And to think that little David, who has brought us together, was not wantetd. He's certainly won his welcome this time. -ALICE BAsTow. V335 EASTERN'S SKELETON. He's awful skinny, Bones just bulge. He lives in Eastetrn High. He's eaten not For many years, Andlwhen you pass him by You're bound to shiver If a girl, And grin if you're a boy. But just the same He makes you sick And out of life takes joy. If you Take physiology And see him every- day, He takes away T. Your appetite And makes you thin and gray. Our only wish At present is That some day he will break- just crumble 'up Like so much dust And, Lord, his carcass take. -M. BY A JITNEY MAN. Blessings on thee, jitney man. With thy Ford, all spick and spang 'VVith thy turned-up pantaloons And thy five cent whistled tunes, VVith thy muffler, redder still, Chased by speed cops on the hill, On the muddy road to race, With a Ford at break-neck pace, From my heart I give thee joy, I was once a jitney boy. Oh! for a Ford's painless play, Noise that makes the sleepy day, Speed that mocks the Governor's rules, Power ne'er heard of in 4 cylinder to Of the wild cop morning chase, Of the scheduled time and pace. How he feeds it with the gas When getting ready for a pass. How the fenders rattle still, ols VVhen burrs and bolts near drain the ti Gas she eats just like a toy, Shifting at the master's joy. Oh! for motoring time in June, Paying for gas from his pantaloons, I was rich in gas and tools, A humming Ford and camping stools, For exercise Icranked her o'er, Until my back was nearly sore. -Carl Hubner, 22 :as 1 1 .4 ,,2 I awww al U an 0 , A 11 'IAQ NXQUXILQ In 1 rr Il Ove 'gl sb NX 'N 1 1 rfffn f .As seiko' ' 0 l fl I .s80?5cl'xxl llll Q: ':xf',..'Ib 5' 41 .Q U MW , c 1 N P4QX NW 1 M ' ' ' Q Q ' I o:42'0o'9, 'MU' ,r l Vll p1Ql 6 A.iu.v'lu' 'M J I f Illl'5f,1!n urnln' zr 1 1,,,1 l I mn gli num-n uf , ln:- vl: .nn lz' ll 'luv :-,..

Polly, where are you? called Mrs. Freeman. 1 believe you've met Mr. Stetson before, haven't you? Polly, a rosy-checked, fair-haired girl of twenty years came laughingly from the house and joined the group who were welcoming a new-comer. The event was a week-end party at her home, on the shores of beautiful, placid Long Lake, and the last guest, Billy Stetson, had just arrived. She turned to welcome him, but there was an instant's hesitation before she extended her hand. Her chum, Madeline Travers, startled at the very evi lent surprise in Polly's manner, watched her narrowly, for she sensed something in this meeting which she failed to understandebut she proposed to find out. HellogBilly, murmured Polly. How do you do4Polly? There was the same hesitation in his tone. Madeline believed that she was seeing a light. Here were all the indications of heart-trouble, but why hadn't Polly even told her that there had been an affair with Billy Steton. Evidently Polly was deeper than she seemed. Meanwhile the guest who had caused so much agitation was being led to the house by Mrs. Freeman, and the other members of the party. Polly and Madeline remained on the wharf and watched silently as the procession entered the house. Then Madeline resolved that she would learn why Polly and Billy had seemed so embarrassed at meeting, turned to Polly and exclaimed, Why didn't you tell me that you and Billy were old friends, and that something had happened? Polly stared and was silent for a minute. I Nothing ever did happen and We aren't old friends, she said slowly, But it is beyond belief that he would come here. - VVell, exclaimed Madeline, wasn't Billy Stetson asked? That isn't Billy Stetson, said Polly. Not Billy Stetson? VVho is it then? questioned Madeline, and to her utter astonishment Polly replied, I haven't the slightest idea. They faced each other questioningly and then Madeline said: We've got to find out where Billy Stetson is and why this young man is masquerading in his place. It's up to you to go to him and demand an explanation. Polly stared, aghast. Then she cried out indignantlyf' NVhy. I don't even know him. I can't go and tell him I know he isn't Billy Stetson and ask him what he is doing here. You've got to, insisted Madeline firmly. You pretended to know him and everybody else has taken him on your pretense, or do you intend that a perfect stranger should stay here and call you Polly? He'll have to now, answered Polly. I won't ask him who he is and Why he is posing as Billy Stetson. VVe will simply have to watch him .and see where he goes and what he does, she said musingly. Then a brilliant thought struck her, Madeline, she exclaimed, jack Morton knows Billy Stetson better than I do, and surely he will expose this impostor. Don't you think so? Let's go to the house and see if they have met yet, said Madeline. Maybe when Morton and Billy are introduced we'll get some clue to the reason for this imposition on us. ' They linked arms, and talking earnestly, walked toward the house, from which came the strains of the latest dance piece. Quickening their steps they entered the door just as Billy and jack Morton came face to face. For a full moment jack stared at this short, pudgy, fair-haired young man. Then he gave him! his hand anal exclaimed, Billy Stetson! I didn't expect to see you here! e No, said Billy, I rather believe you didn't. Madeline and Polly looked at each other with wide eyes, in which there was the same question. XVhat were they to do if jack, who had known Billy so well, accepted this pretender as an old friend? They made a wise decision to sleep over this vexing question. Then they joined the group, Polly paying especial attention to Mr. Billy Stetson. Iler fore- thought in thus singling him out for this honor was wise because he became more comfortable and talkative when he realized that Polly was playing his game and keeping his identity or non-identity secret. 5' . Someone suggested that they take a lunch next day and go up the river on a boating trip. They could go in the launch and go up the river for five miles and have luncheon. Then they would explore a cave of much interest and return after the sun had set in the evening to have dinner at the house. The next morning Madeline, who had, during the night, resolved that she would not go on the boating trip, pleaded a headache and, resisting all the plead- ings and protestations of Polly to stay with her, was left behind. As soon as they had gone she ran to her room and changed to a suitable boating costume. Then she ran down to the wharf, where she had seen a row-boat moored. just why she was doing such an unheard of thing as to go off alone in a row-boat was a puzzle to her. The only reason, she admitted to herself, was that she wanted to explore the island, which could be seen, as a mere green slope, from the dock. She had not been over to it in all her visits to Polly, but today, she thought, was her oppor- tunity. VVhen she stepped from the boat an involuntary gasp of surprise and delight burst from her lips. The island appeared to be covered with beautiful flowers and trees. From the beach where she stood a well-worn, winding path led away from the water. She started to follow it but as she rounded a turn she stopped in astonishment, for directly ahead was a tiny vine-covered cottage which seemed to show signs of former occupation. Near the cottage stood a massive tree, which spread its branches protectingly over the path. Madeline walked on to the cottage and peered in thru the open front door. There were signs of a recent meal, for the coals in the grate emitted a faint glow, and on a'table were the remains of a meal. Turning from the cottage she followed the path farther on until she reached a tinkling, little brook. Here she sat down and removed her hat. As she was meditating on this new mystery, for it surely was a mystery, because whenever she had mentioned the island, she had been told that it was deserted, she heard a cheerful whistle from the direction of the cottage. Scrambling to her feet and hastily putting on her hatshe ran up the path. As she reached the cottage door she came face to face with a lithe, sun-browned giant who had about two weeks' growth of beard on his cheerful face. He dropped his old, ragged cap in a courtely bow and said, Welcome to my abode, Miss Travers. Madelinelstared in amazement. How do you know my name is Travers? she questioned icily. His chuckle was as warmly friendly as hers was coldly hostile. Oh! I keep in touch with the doings of the Freemans, he answered. I know the names of all the guests at the house party. I'm as interested in it as tho they were all personal friends of mine. In fact one of them is. U Which one? queired Madeline quickly. 'Jack Morton, he answered. jack Morton a friend of yours! ejaculated Madeline. Maybe you know Billy Stetson too? There was a glance ,of amusement in his eyes, but he merely shook his head. What is your name? she asked. I'm Curley to my friends. Madeline decided quickly that here was something new. Bidding him a hasty good bye she ran to her boat and rowed away. When she reached the mainland the boaters had not come back, so she made a quick toilet and had just settled herself with a book on the veranda when they came trooping up exclaiming what a good time they had had. When they asked about her head she said that it was feeling much better and that she her- self had gone for a row alone. ' After the guests had gone to their rooms to dress for dinner Madeline went up to Polly's room and questioned her casually about the island. Polly said that it was deserted and that, as far as she knew, no one 'had lived on it for years. Madeline did not tell her about her discovery but she made inquiries quietly about the young man who was Curley to his friends. She could learn nothing about him except from Jack Morton, and he was disposed to be very reserved in speaking of this mysterious stranger. ,iii if , , - 'X -,L-.-1.-N, .V 1. - ., U. . ': r .

' : A '- ' g r Several nights later there was a robbery farther down the shore from Freemans, at the house of Mr. Davidson. Reports and rumors stated that a man with a motor launch had come down the river and entered the house, searching thru all the rooms but taking nothing away with him except a suit of clothes. Madeline instantly attributed the robbery to Curley. , ', D The next week Polly Freeman gave a dance, in honor of her guests, as a fare- well token. Madeline was greatly surprised to see the young man of the island come into the ball-room as the dancers were assembling. She started a Search for Polly and ,when she found her whispered, Who is that standing by the doorway? Polly looked over to the door and cried, Why, its Billy Stetson. Then she ran over to him with Madeline in tow. When -the two confronted Billy he bowed' the same courtly bow of the island and with a mocking smile said, Miss Travers and I have met before. Met before? cried Polly. Where did you two meet? Madeline said she didn't know you. Billy beckoned to the impostor who was standing by ,with a look of relief on his face. Then taking Polly and Madeline and Bob, as he called him, into the library, he explained that he had persuaded Bob Murray, his very best friend, to pose under his name, simply for the joy of mystifying his friends. When Madeline Visited the island and discovered him he had been in fear of her telling what she had seen. The robbery was explained when he said that he had to have some clothes to come to the dance. Then turning-to Madeline he held out his hands and said, Will you forgive me for deceiving you? . And while she is forgiving him, and Polly and Bob are discovering new and wonderful things, let us discretly turn our backs. 1 e -BERNICE ROSECRANS. 0 A PSALM OF FOOTBALL. Tell me not in mournful numbers, Football is a lifeless game. For the stude is dead who slumbers But things are not always tame. Footbal1's real, football's earnest, And a touchdown is the goal, Grab it, rush the field's length, Touch 'the ground-fdon't let it roll. ' Halves are short, quarters fleeting, And excitement rules supreme, If we win the game this Thursday, A championship will be our dream. All enjoyment, but no sorrow, . Yell like that, 'we'l1 win the day, Quiarter's over! we've a chance yet, bcore's tie, go on, men, play! On the gridiron spirit's lacking, Give a yell that'll raise the sky! The quarter-back is going to kick now, Watch that-ball there, soaring high. Someone has the ball in clutch now, Runs with it-a master play! Hurry now! good heavens, make it! Oh! he did! we've Won the day! Lives of football men remind us Football is a snappy game, Don't vou think for one brief moment A football game is very tame. -Dorothy Whitehouse, 'z2. . 4 . , t .. . 4, 4 Y 'Km' ' c N' f 'lb y 5' as :ry ' .:- ,, - .1 11' 4-' ,-'. mug.-11' .

You know doubt thinc it is pekuliar that I did knot right two you befour, but reely I am just getting yoused too my knew soreoundings. I am righting this two you mostly two tell you of the school hear. It is a huge read brick building, three storys high so they call it a high school. It is a awful quaint and picturesque place. There is a glass cupbored or buffeay with silver vases in it. l guess the seniors and teachers can youse them too drink out of. There is a pump out doors but I heard somebody say that the water made him sick, sew I don't no whether it is well water or knot. I am getting along fine in my studies, I passed too out of for. I take coreus, gee it is fun, I sit there and some of the kids CI guess they are supposed to do itj sing the verses and then I just have to join in the coreus because that is all I signed up for. But believe me they will never force me to take chemistree. One of the fellows told me it almost killed him. I didn't believe hymn but the other day I looked in the labartory door and sure enuff there was a skeleton write near the door. Isn't that awful what some people will do for an edukation. I was going to take zoologie but a kid told me it was all hum bug and that hotany was to flourie so I'm not taking them either. I guess won of the teachers thought I was awfully tuff, because she said, Dew you like your course? But I told her their was nothing course or vulgar about me. I want to take some history but seaing that I am Amerikan I'd have to take Amerikan history. I'd rather take that than Ancient anyway because I can't remember so far back, why I wasn't even bourne then, how should I no about it? They have a good foot-bawl teem hear. But dew you no the boys get payed for playing. One of the boys told me he hadn't received his foot-bawl quarters yet. If they ourn't good enough they right them a nice note because I've heard them talking about there foot-bawl letters. And let me tell you they play a clean game, they even have a scrub teem. Their quite a few Activities. I don't know which I shell join. I hate to dis- apoint some of them but I can't bee in everything. Their is the E. Clesia. lt is a group of illerate girls. They just group together to get out of everything that is edukational. The Girls' Athletic League is another club. lt is awful hard two get intwo. They are rather a lazy hunch, just sit around and talk, don't care for any gaimes or sports. Then their is Thirty Councilmenf' or something like that. They are a frivolous gang, just think about dance and partys. I guess girls belong two that two because I have seen a lot waring the pin. The Athletic Association is to hard to get into, you have to hee two great an athelete and I can't go in for any- thing rough since I had the mumps. There our a lot of hooks in the halls four the kids who come late and havcn't time two go into the cloak-room. Part of this building is almost shot, especially the shoot or tunnel. VVell, I guess I will say good-bye, right two me soon, if you don't get this write away, let me no and I'll look it up. As ever B 4, PHILLIP SPACE. G. Noonan, '2o.
