E = — Cn) By SAMOE EROME HOWARD. looked at yawned, reached for his hat and prepared to leave the office. He was a tall, lithe young chap; keen-eyed, square- jawed and broad shouldered. His dark brown hair had a curly wave and was combed straight back. After his graduation from college he had opened an office as an attorney-at-law. He had not been very successful at first but, after a few cases, had become one of the leading attorneys in the county. His hobby was sleuthing and by this he had un- covered many facts in several of his cases which would otherwise never have come to light. About time to call it a day's work, Miss Graham, he said to the young girl who acted as his stenog- rapher. She was small and dainty. Her deep blue eyes and her frank smile instinctively made you like her. She wore her black hair in a loose coil which hung low, offsetting and emphasizing the pure white- ness and beauty of her throat. his She smiled at her employer as she nodded, without stopping her work. “Just a moment, Mr. Howard. This will be finished soon and must go out tonight. Your signature is necessary.” Jerome grimaced at the delay and went back to his chair to wait. During the delay he thought of the events of the past few months. He went back to the PRESSE watch, 4 memorable day, April 6, when this country the Great War. The town had been agog with ex- citement. Men and boys had enlisted rapidly until only a few were left. entered These consisted mainly of boys who were too young, men who were too old, or those who were not physically qualified. One of the few to remain behind was Jerome Howard. His reasons for staying were known to himself only. He smiled bitterly as he thought of the criticism and sneers he had received; how the people who had been his best friends for years had turne and shunned him. Even his fiancee, Genevieve Wahlen, the daughter of Old Man Wahlen, the mayor, had refused to be seen in his company and had given back the engagement ring he had placed on her finger only a few months before. His thoughts were suddenly interrupted. A sheaf of papers were placed in front of him, ready for his signature. He looked up at the girl and smiled rather wistfully. She knew what had been going through his mind. She had been the only one in the town who had re- fused to criticise Jerome for his Unpatriotism, as they called it. She resented this criticism because she believed it to be untrue. She did not know of the reason which had caused him to remain behind but, as she told her friends, it would have to be a good their backs, one to keep a man like Jerome Howard out of a man's war like this one. She put on her hat and went out. Just as she reached the street the whistle of the huge ammunition plant blew and a stream of girls poured forth with only a few men amongst them. Grace stopped and watched the familiar faces as they hurried by. Suddenly her gaze was caught by two strange masculine faces. She looked intently at the two men and noted their foreign, military bearing. As she stared at them Jerome came out of the building and they walked down the street together. As they walked she told him of the two strangers and of her uneasy premonitions regarding their pres- ence in the huge ammunition plant. Jerome laughed away her uneasiness and said that they were probably only honest laborers who wanted to do their bit by working in an ammunition plant. After he had seen Grace home, Jerome immedi- ately set out for the ammunition plant and succeeded in getting the superintendent to give him some infor- mation regarding the two foreigners. Не learned that they were two German-Americans whose names were Bauer and Brenner. They had applied for positions and had furnished the best of references from an am- munition plant in Cartersville. Тће next morning Howard did not show up at his office at the usual time. At twenty minutes to eleven his secretary became alarmed, as he had a big case at eleven-thirty at Jones Junction, which was ten miles from Medford. She called up his residence and was told that he had not been in all night but that this was not strange as it happened frequently. Eleven-thirty came and still Jerome did not appear. Miss Graham tried several places without success and finally gave it up in despair. Several days went by before Jerome appeared at the office again. Не walked in as if he had not been absent at all and waded into his work as if there had been no time for it to accumulate. Late that afternoon he called Miss Graham to his desk and told her that he would have to dispense with her services in the office. He smiled at the look of dismay that passed over her face. “I am not dispensing with your services entirely, young lady, he said. “I think I remarked ‘in the office.” If you care to accept the position, I am in need of someone to assist me in some special work I am doing. This person must be one I can trust and whom I know well. You would just fill the bill if you would accept. You have assisted me on several sleuthing jobs and I am sure you would like this work just as well. “I am ready to listen to your proposition, was her answer. Very well, listen carefully. Tomorrow morning go to the employment office at the ammunition plant and apply for a position in the shell loading depart- ment, where you will be given a bench near the two foreign fellows you noticed the other day. I want you to keep your eyes and ears open and overhear as much as you can of what they have to say. If you should happen to hear anything against me, disregard it. If, by any chanc e, I should disappear address a letter to me in care of the General Delivery Depart- ment of the Jones Junction postoffice; that is, if you have overheard anything which you think might inter- est me. Аз soon as this job is finished I will want you back in the office again. “I regret greatly that I have to leave this position even temporarily and will be glad to come back to it after this job is finished. I will do my best at it, Mr. Howard, and will report according to your instruc- tions if I hear anything. They left the office and walked slowly to the street. They separated at the entrance to the build- ing, Grace hurrying to her home while Jerome cut across town. That night Jerome Howard disappeared from Medford. He had been seen boarding the 7:30 train for Morganstown and he was not back in Med- ford for some time. The next morning a tall young man with a light brown beard and mustache entered the employment office of the ammunition plant. He gave his name as Barton and asked to see the employment manager. After a great deal of wrangling the clerk finally con- sented to pass him into the inner office. Barton held only а few minutes’ conversation with the manager, who then told the clerk to place him as an assistant foreman in the loading department. Barton was a likable fellow and soon made friends. Among the first to cultivate his friendship were Bauer and Brenner. He was often seen con- versing with them, although none of the other work- ers would talk to them. Не also seemed to like the company of Grace Graham and often escorted her home after working hours. Grace had watched the two men very carefully, but had not been able to see or overhear anything of any interest. Up to the day that Barton came their conversation had been general. A few days later, however, Grace heard them con- versing in low tones with many side glances to see whether anyone could overhear them. “Well, Bauer, he has arrived and it is time for us to get to work. We will meet him to-night at Rus- sell's Inn and there we will form our plans for the work ahead of us. Ја, I think that Barton is just the man for us. We can use him to our advantage. Не has brains and is also strong. Grace was troubled over this conversation. She had come to like Barton and now she found out that he was hand in glove with these aliens. She did not doubt now that they were about to commit some treacherous deed, but had no inkling of what it was, She wished that Jerome Howard were there. He could advise her as to her action. She deliberated over her course during the day, but arrived at a de- cision only when the whistle blew. She decided quickly and was determined that she would follow out her plan. She quickly went to her house and changed to a dark blue suit. She then caught a trolley out of town and alighted in front of Russell's and entered timidly. Looking around her she saw that the place was still practically deserted. It was too early for the revelers and only a few were sitting at the tables. A waiter hurried forward and she chose a table near the aisle and sat down facing the rear of the room. At the end of the room was a large mirror. This she watched closely for the appearance of the persons she expected. Time went slowly and she thought that her trip had been in vain when, at ten-thirty, the men had not appeared. Suddenly her heart leaped. The three men came in and were met at the door by a fourth. The latter escorted them to the rooms above the ground floor. Grace's spirits sank as suddenly as they had risen. She could not follow the men. She did not know to which room they had gone. Still she decided to wait for their reappearance and to follow them. About half an hour later the three men came down and sat at a table near Grace. None of them noticed her and she studiously kept her face averted. She bit her lip in vexation. She had failed to find out what the plans of the three men were. She had come to this place in vain Suddenly she heard the low murmur of voices from the conspirators’ table and tried to catch what they were saying. “Ja, it must be to-night,” she heard Bauer saying. Then his voice was lowered and she could only catch certain words. Not home to-night—must act—get away. Then she heard Barton talking. It seemed he was remonstrating with the others. He talked in a low tone of voice and she could not hear what he was saying. Brenner then started. He was evidently excited and his voice rose so that Grace could hear plainly what he was saying. “Haf I not said that it will to-night be?” she could hear him ask. “We haf already too much time wasted. We must get to work now. This job must be completed by to-morrow morning. Der train leafs the station by half-past seven and we must make that train or take a chance of being caught. Bauer had been gesturing to him to lower his voice and now growled something to him in German. Bren- ner immediately subsided. The three men called the waiter, paid their check and left the place. Grace followed them. When the three had reached the open they entered a high-powered car that was stand- ing near the entrance, and with a roar they were off. Grace looked wildly about in hopes of seeing some vehicle in which she could hope to follow the high- powered car. Нег eyes alighted on a high-powered racing car that was a little distance down the road. А young man was just getting into it and the engine was already working. Wait! she cried, as she darted down the road. The young man paused in astonishment with one foot on the step and waited for her to come up to him. Will you follow that car? she asked, as she indicated the fast receding lights. She explained her suspicions regarding the men and the young man quickly agreed to help Grace follow the men. A roar, a flash of lights, and they were out on the open highway. The driver urged the car to greater and greater speed. They did not seem to gain on the car ahead of them. The needle of the speedome- ter pointed 80 miles. Slowly it crept up to the 100 mark, They fairly hurtled along the road about a half-mile in the rear of the other car. Then suddenly the red lights ahead of them disap- peared, The driver immediately slowed down and, at the point where they had last seen the lights, stopped. The road forked at this point. Which branch had the conspirators taken? No lights were visible on either road. Suddenly from the road to the right came a report as of a shot and then another from one of their front wheels. The young man swore softly under his breath. Fine shooting, he admitted grudgingly. “Blew out one of our tires. Our lights gave them a mark to shoot at and they succeeded.” They heard the other party get under way once more while the young fellow was tinkering around changing the front wheel. A few moments later they were off again. Once more, in the distance, they could see the red lights of the other car. This time there were not any stops. They flashed through several small towns and then Morganstown loomed in the distance. The driver with Grace urged his car to its greatest speed and slowly they drew up on the other car. Then they were in the limits of the снућа� а had to slow down. They were only about half a block in the rear now. The conspirators chose a crooked way across town. Around corners both cars tore. The men in the other car now evidently had no thought of being followed again; they were pretty sure that they had stopped their pursuers, and did not think anything of this small racer drawing up on them. They stopped their car in front of a large house on one of the quieter streets and stole to the back of the building. Grace had the young man stop the car some dis- tance from the house and they went after the men. Have you a gun? whispered Grace to her com- panion. “There is one in the car, he answered. here and I will get it. Wait He ran back to the car and returned in a few min- utes with an automatic in his hand. They went quietly to the back of the house. One They crept in noiselessly Then a board The men were of the windows was open. and listened for a sound of the men. creaked on the other side of the door. coming into the room! Grace and her companion quietly stepped behind the curtains again and waited breathlessly. Т� е door opened and the three men entered, Barton in the lead. He did not seem to be the same man. His shoulders sagged, his eyes looked tired and in spite of herself, Grace pitied this big, tired-looking man. Barton walked across the room and removed a, picture hanging on the wall. Cleverly set in the wall was the door of a safe. Не started to turn the knob slowly, his ear against the door, evidently listening to the click of the falling bearings. He worked slowly. Several times he had to start over again, having slipped by his mark. Then, with an ejaculation, he turned the knob. He stepped back to allow the others to get to the safe. Just as Bauer touched the door, Barton whipped upon him. “Throw up your hands and keep them there, was his crisp remark. “Back up against the wall In each hand was a blue automatic, one pointing at each conspirator. As the two traitors backed towards the wall, Bren- ner seemed to stumble. Не fell forward and an in- stant later had pinioned Barton’s arms to his side. Bauer joined his companion and the three men fought and rolled over the entire room. Grace decided to take a hand at this stage of the game. She took the revolver from her companion and, stepping out from her hiding place, said calmly: Spare the rest of the furniture, gentlemen. Line up against the wall where you can do no more dam- age. Step quickly! This last sharply as they hesi- tated. They decided to do as Grace requested when her companion stepped out and picked up the guns which Barton had dropped in the scuffle. Grace requested the young man to call the officer they had seen at the corner. As he turned to go to the window, Bauer was on him, while Brenner grasped the girl. Barton seemed stupefied at their activity while guns were pointing at them. Brenner wrenched the gun out of the girl’s hand and turned to help Bauer. He rapped the young man on the head with the butt of the gun and that young person knew nothing of the rest of the fracas. Brenner then turned to leer at Grace. Ah, ће said, gloatingly; the pretty young fraulein from the shop, is it not? We are very honored to have you with us. We will show you how we entertain pretty young ladies. He advanced while he spoke. Grace retreated, but with one bound he had grasped her in his arms. He had hardly touched her when he heard a bull- like roar and turned to see one hundred and eighty pounds of muscle com ing at him. He released Grace and stepped back. He had not completed his step when he was lifted off his feet and unceremoniously deposited at the other side of the room, where he lay motionless. Barton е� turned his attention to Bauer. The latter was intent on his get-away. Не ran to the window, but swore fluently when he found a man pointing a revolver at him. He darted to the door and into an officer's arms. There was a click and ће was handcuffed. “It's all over, Bauer, so be good for a little while, said Barton. Не laughed and added, It will be a long while before you will be able to do any mischief again.” He bent tenderly over the form of the young man who had been Grace’s companion. Are you badly hurt, Jimmy?” they heard him ask. Jimmy chose this moment to open his eyes and mournfully ask, “What hit me? Is it all over?” Barton helped Jimmy to his feet and made him sit down. He then bade Grace and the officers to also be seated. When they were all placed he excused himself and left the room. A few minutes later Jerome Howard emerged from the room into which Barton had gone. You! gasped Grace. 'Oh, Jerome, how glad I am that you are here. Neither noticed that she had used his first name. “In a few minutes you will know how I happen to be here. He seated himself and began his story: When this country entered the war I was criti- cized a great deal and called a ‘slacker.’ I had not gone to fight for my country and had become a social outcast to be sneered at and shunned. But I had a reason for staying at home. I had seen that war could not be averted and I knew my work had to be hastened. I was working on a gas which was to be ten times the strength of that used by the Boche. At last I succeeded, as shown by an experiment used on a cat a few days ago. “The Huns’ secret service somehow learned of my work and dispatched two of their most trustworthy agents to obtain the formula. They did not, how- ever, reckon with our Secret Service, which had a spy planted in their midst. In this way Washington knew all of their plans almost as soon as the traitors them- selves. We also knew that a third man was to be sent to help the two already on the job. This third man was waylaid and in his place a young man, whom you know as Barton, came. [ had kept informed as to the latest activities of all of these people and at last it became necessary for me to d'sappear from Medford. Before going I assigned Miss Graham to watch Bauer and Brenner. She secured a position in the same department and watched them carefully. The day after my disappearance, Barton applied for and obtained a position at the plant. He made the two aliens believe he was the man sent to help them. They believed him and took him into their confidence. At last the time came for these traitors to strike. They took Barton with them and went to the road- house. Grace was already waiting. She thought she was unobserved, but Barton had noticed her. He did not, however, say anything to his companions. When they left the roadhouse Grace followed them. She did not think it strange to find the other car in front of the house, not knowing it had been put there just to enable her to pursue the conspirators. She did not know that the driver was my brother Jimmy, who had been summoned from college to help me. Still she did not hesitate, but followed. Y ou know what happened then. Barton succeeded in deceiving the traitors so well that they did not think it strange when he opened the safe without any trou- ble. It is evident that, along with other qualities, they thought he possessed the knack of safe-cracking. They did net know that he had the combination from me. Grace came on the scene at just the right mo- ment and everything ended splendidly. The traitors did not know that, even had they succeeded in getting what was in the safe, they would never have gone beyond the door, if they got as far as that. The only thing in that safe is a small box con- taining enough gas to have killed them almost instantly had they opened it. If they had not opened it and tried to get away, the house was surrounded. Thev were caught either way. But as it is, we have no charge against them ex- cept breaking and entering with intent to rob. But I will give them a chance to write a confession of their espionage.” He turned to Bauer and Brenner and said: “I will ee RNY дэ үт, TD give you two five minutes in which to write your con- If, in that time, they are not complete, we will leave the room, having tied you, and release the gas in this box. Will you write?” They refused and Jerome drew his watch and counted off the minutes. At last time was up. The traitors were tied and the others left the room, How- ard remaining in the doorway, box in his hand. His hand went to the cover. Bauer screamed, “Ман, ve vill write the confes- sions.” fessions. A few moments later Jerome handed the detective the two signed confessions. The latter said, “I would like to ask you just one question, Mr. Howard. Who was Barton?” Jimmy and Jerome both roared with laughter. When they had quieted Jerome said, Can't you guess how I know all of the facts of this сазе?” Why, you were Barton!” burst from Grace, as she gazed at him in astonishment. The detective was stupefied and at first all he could muster was, Well, I'll be 4—44!” Then, turning to Bauer and Brenner: Соте on, you scum. You needn't feel sore at being caught. You were captured by a cleverer man than most of our Secret Service men are. You surely ought to become a detective, Mr. Howard. They'd make you a lieutenant in a few months.” I am fairly satished with my own business, but in a case like this I could not help turning detective. I think you could give the officers a lift to the jail and take these traitors with you, Jimmy. After they were gone, Jerome cleared up some points in Grace's mind. After everything was clear he asked her a very important question and received a very satisfactory answer. Jimmy suddenly poked his head in the door, some time later, and withdrew it as suddenly. Не coughed violently and, after waiting a discreet minute, entered. I want to introduce to you the future Mrs. How- ard, Jimmy, was Jerome's greeting. THE SEA: A SONNET Tis oft my thoughts turn to the mystic sea, That, ever-shifting, reaches for the moon. That mirror-surface, placid as can be, As far as eye can see is changed full soon. And there, revealed before the startled eye, A roaring mass of billows, flecked with foam, Wind-lashed and frenzied dashes madly by, And chaos reigns o'er Neptune's briny home. Thou sea, thou false enchantress, with thy lure Hast reft from men their heritage of power And cast them from thee, broken, old and poor. But mark it well, with every passing hour Thy buffets are but urges to the skill Of men to bend thy spirit to their will.

We need you more and more: The snow-capped trees are yearning for you so, They call and call for you, but at your door Stands Winter, your inevitable foe. And we, the flowers, call and beckon, too: О come, and do not let us call in vain— You give us everything that’s good and true; Therefore we love you. Cheerily come again. You bring the distant sun whose face we love, And then we watch the sunbeams at their play: Happy they are when your sweet spirits move To teach them how to dance, sing, and be gay: Oh joyous Spring, but listen to our plea; Arise and watch how happy we can be.

Stolper from a Set of 24 Short-Stories. ) Jock МСЕЕЕ, a cobbler in a small village on the Tay River in Scotland, had the name of being super- stitious. All the people of the village accused him of not coming out after dark for the simple reason that he lived near the village burial grounds. One of the villagers, Jim Sanderson by name, especially liked to bother Jock about his superstition. It happened one day about midsummer that Jim’s shoes needed mending, so he walked over to Jock’s shop to have them fixed. Jock was in a grouchy mood that day, for his work had all gone wrong, and when he saw Jim entering his shop, he gave a loud groan. This was enough to start an argument, and Jim began it by saying: Hello, Jock, hae ye been takin’ a dram or twa ower muckle that ye er heid's batherin' ye, or what is it that’s makin’ ye groan sae loud? “Its enough tae mak’ anybody groan tae see sic a big loon as ye are comin’ intae their hoose, said Jock. “Och awa, Jock,” said Jim, ye needna get riled sae quick when a freen’ comes ower tae visit ye, but tae tell ye the truth ye look awfa’ like as iff the de'el hae been visitin’ ye last nicht. “Сша sakes, said Jock, “dinna mention ma name wi the de'el again ог I'll rap ye ower the heid wi’ ma hammer. A' the foulk in the toon say I’m scairt lae gang oot after dark, but ГЇЇ gie them something tae talk aboot, fur I'll stay а nicht in the burial groonds.”” “If ye think уте sae brave, Jock, I'll wager ye a shillin’ that ye dinna stay ony mair than half an оог i’ the groonds, said Jim. “A’ richt, Jim, said Jock, “I'll tak’ that wager, we the conditions that ye stop gaen oot wi’ Jeannie McFarlin, for ye ken I like her mair than onybody in Scotland. What, me stop gaen oot wi’ Jeannie?” said Jim. “Wha ever heard о’ sich rot? Is't no’ enough that ye hae the chance o' winnin' a shillin’ fra me? An' mind ye, Jock, dinna you try ony courtin' wi’ Jeannie, or ГЇЇ bash yer muckle face in. This settled any doubts of Jeannie being concerned in the wager, so it was arranged that Jock should sit in the village burial grounds from 10 o'clock that night until dawn. That night about five minutes to 10 Jock set out for the burial grounds. He took his hammer with him, for, as he stated it, I micht need it, bein’ oot in such a skeptical place a' nicht. Jock soon arrived at the burial grounds and, climbing a fence rather than have the villagers see him go in, he made his way to a little grass plot about the middle of the grounds. Here Jock sat down on a large stone which had probably marked the grave of some one some- time or other. Soon Jock began to feel drowsy, and little by little his breathing deepened until sleep overcame him. When Jock awoke it was pitch dark. He rubbed his eyes, wondering where he was, then looked around. What he saw startled him. On all sides shadowy figures were stealing toward him. Jock at any time was not brave, but now he almost went frantic with fear. Т� е hair on his head bristled and a chill ran down his back. His knees hit each other he shivered so, and in his mind he saw visions of himself lying dead with daggers stuck all over him. ‘Guid sakes,” said Jock to himself, why did I ever think о’ comin’ oot here the nicht? It micht be the last nicht I’m livin’ and I didna even say guid nicht tae Jeannie. What will she say iff I'm foond deid the morn's mornin’! I wonder iff she'll greet when she sees me a cut up? Och! I wish I niver had thoucht о’ comin’ here the nicht.” In his bewilderment Jock had been gazing at the ground, but now he raised his eyes to see how near the demons were. То his Memor, da could see noth- ing but gravestones around him. Jock chuckled to himself and thought how scared he had been, but this was soon brought to an end when he saw two bright orbs staring at him. Jock could not imagine what they could belong to. Then a thought flashed through his mind as his cheerfulness left him and he again began to shiver. “What if it's the de'el come tae claim me? This thought gave him the creeps and his hair bristled again. Then the orbs moved nearer, and Jock, already startled, jumped to his feet. The orbs stopped for a minute, then began to move forward again. Jock tried to stop his fear by saying in a loud, shrill voice, “Ye'll hae tae be michty smart tae catch Jock McFee, for I can beat onybody between here and Dundee at runnin. As if to put action to his words, Jock turned and started to run, but he stumbled over the stone he had been sitting on and fell flat on his face. Instantly he was on his feet and started running again. Then from behind him came a screech, which to Jock was the most horrible he had ever heard in his life. Meow-ow-ow-w-Weow-W-W,' it came, breaking the stillness ol the air in an unearthly sound. Jock fly like the wind, but he was stopped suddenly bv a white figure coming toward him. Jock gazed He dropped his hands This made at the figure in bewilderment. to his sides, and as he did so felt the hammer in h pocket. An idea came to him. He grasped the THE GREAT ENIRAL. MAXINE “Will it be all right for March 22nd, then?” “Yes.” “At seven-thirty 2 =. That was all that was said; but what those words implied! It meant that She was going to the Great Central Meet—and with Him. The only things that were at that time informed of this wonderful happen- ing were the doors, blackboards and desks in 110, be- cause that was where the date was made. Conse- quently, it was up to Her to spread the thrilling news throughout Central. That afternoon Gladys (that's the name of the girl who said yes, and who is to be our heroine) left school at one minute after three precisely, and by 3:16 had made arrangements with her dressmaker for the plans to be followed in the designing of her attire for the Meet. Clifford (that's the name of the fellow who asked the boon for March 22nd, and who 15 our hero) left the building at 3:10, and by 3:25 had received Nat Levy's promise to furnish him with a complete outfit for the Great Night. By the looks of things, you, gentle reader, may be led to think that this wonderful affair was to be held in a very short time from the hour our heroine re- ceived her bid. It is not just for me to mislead you by their hasty actions, so I will tell you a little secret. The Meet was scheduled for March 22nd, and it was only March 1 Oth. You can judge for yourself what an important event in Gladys's life this was, when she, who never 13 hammer, and rushing at the figure with a yell, brought down that implement with all his strength on the vision's head, then ran for dear life toward home. The next morning Jim Sanderson had a big lump on his head. One of the villagers recollected having seen Jim walking toward the burial grounds the night before with a bundle under his arm. When Jock heard this he remembered the ghost he had hit on the head, and told the story, and always after that when he told the story he would end by saying, An' its awfu’ uncanny that Jim Sanderson had a beg lump on his heid the next mornin'. a MMU m MEET HEMMINDINGER, departed from her dear school before four o'clock, had to bid the building good-bye directly after dis- missal, and rush her order eleven days in adv ance. The same applies to our hero, Clifford. I have not the space nor the time to tell you of all the exciting moments the couple spent during the days that followed. But it will be wise to say that Gladys was shopping either here or in New York each day promptly after school, and that Central was alive with the news that the best-looking boy in school was taking the most popular girl. All eyes would be drawn magnetically to this famous couple—our hero and heroine, reader, on this eve of March 22nd. Slowly but surely the day grew near.. By the time Spring made her appearance, all plans for the Meet were going smoothly. But—before the day of March 21st was over, one girl's spirits were crushed. That girl was Gladys. At seven-thirty that even- ing, just as she was thinking how stunning she would be looking at the same hour the coming night, the telephone rang. Convinced that Clifford’s manly voice would be on the other end of the wire, Gladys answered the phone. Is Miss Gladys Eagleton in?” said a gruff voice. “This is she speaking.” “This is the Fourth Precinct. A person was just brought in for breaking the traffic laws. He gave your name and address for assistance.” Gladys never knew how she managed to ask the question, Do you mean you want bail? but she remembered receiving the answer. Yes. To raise the money was the question that now con- fronted our heroine. She knew that he had looked to her for help because his people were spending the winter at Lakewood. Не needed her help. the night before the Meet. 1 his Was When Gladys retired that night she had decided on her course of action. Clifford would have to pay the penalty of speeding (it was his third offense) and spend Saturday in the precinct. She saw no way out of it. required money was impossible. But what about her- self? Would she have to miss the Meet and spend a dull, solitary evening because Clifford had broken a law? No! Reader, you may wonder how it is possible that a girl, the day of a great event, can find a partner for it, but our heroine did. I imagine she put on her sweetest smile and her cleverest party manners, and then found a boy— you know the rest. If you do not, you will be able to guess what happened when 1 say that on March 22nd, 1919, Gladys appeared at the Meet in her new dress and other new wearing ap- parel, but not with Clifford. When the athletic part of the Meet was over and Central had carried away the highest honors, the band began to play. Immediately the huge floor of the Armory was flooded with dancing couples. novelty dance was announced. To raise the Finally a MAY TWENTY-NINTH In the middle of the next fox trot the lights were to be lowered, all were to chai ge partners, and when the lights were re-lit, to with the partner (This didn't really happen at the Meet, but it is necessary for my story.)

How did it happen? Simple enough. PI I ‘ He had left his only diamond ring at the precinct for bail ten minutes before and rushed up to Sussex Avenue without his new togs for the occasion. But he was there! and that was all Gladys knew. Our clever heroine paired her former escort with some friend of hers (you know how clever girls can arrange things) and spent the rest of the evening о! March 22nd, as planned for weeks—with Clifford. All Central is alive with the news now, and if you listen carefully you will hear them say: Even though his suit was his everyday one, and his hair was not plastered down tight for the Meet, his radiant face and happy smile counted for more than those incidentals, and helped to make them the most attractive couple there!” BARRINGER versus CENTRAL Admission, G.

CNIOR РКОРНЕС THE WANDERINGS OF A CENTRAL SENIOR By SAMUEL BERKOWITZ. When I graduated in June, 1919, my greatest ambition was to become a traveling salesman. After five years of hard labor I managed to attain the cov- eted position. In February, 1924, I immediately took up my new duties with the New York Supply Company, and was soon bound for the South. As I left the Pennsylvania R. R. ticket office, my attention was called to the train announcer. I knew that I had heard that voice before. It was Max Klugman. We had a little talk before I caught my train, about the good old days. While on my journey I remembered that Max had aspired to be a West Point cadet, but he surely stooped to conquer, for after four years he had donned the uniform of the road. My ticket was punched by Catherine Forst, who told me about some of our classmates. She said that Lena Greenwald and Erna Guenther had formed a syndicate in California, and that they practically controlled the peach market. William Eichorn was in Arizona looking for gold with little success. Catherine told me that the last she had heard of him he had been trying his hand at irrigat- ing the desert. When I arrived in Washington I made my way to the St. Claire Hotel. А bright-looking chap took my bags up for me and when I went to tip him I saw it was Van Oesen. “Gold Dust” looked flushed as ever. We had quite a talk. Sadie Rosenbaum, he said, was the private secretary to the Secretary of the А� . He advised me to take an aerobus to her office if I had time. That afternoon I visited Sadie, and found that five years had made a trim little busi- ness woman of her. I learned from her that Charles Minnefor was her employer, but that he was away on a short air trip to Japan. Sadie informed me that Hazel Harenberg was teaching in Korea, and that Saul Ginsberg had charge of a big mining company in Northern Russia. My business next directed me to the city of Charles- ton. Stepping into the office of the Charleston Daily Times I found Nellie Sukerman busy over copy for the noon edition. This certainly brought back the old days at Central. As her time was limited, I promised to meet her at six that evening. We had supper at the Hotel Bellefontaine. Nellie pointed out that the orchestra leader was David Mandelstein, the world-famous violinist. Later I was surprised to see Ethel Runyon, alias Tuesday, come on the stage to entertain us. After supper we went to the salon to talk things over. Wilma Novak, Nellie told me, was Beatrice Fairfax on the Times. I wasn't surprised a bit, for I remembered that Wilma had always been good at that sort of thing. However, I learned with sorrow that Saul Lipschutz had died, prior to my arrival, from copy disease. He had been the hard-working city editor of the Times. My business finished in Charleston, I bade good- bye to my classmates and went North. At Cleveland I met George Rosenblum, quite by accident, on the Square. He immediately button-holed me and took There we saw Greenie, Ves- George told me me to a football game. pasian Pennell and Piggie Poles. that these three were the stars of Ohio. I was soon convinced of this fact by the applause and rooting that they got from the audience. In front of the grand- stand stood а frankfurter-wagon. One glance showed me that Frank Rath had found his vocation indeed. After the game we all went to Martin Martinelli’s Italian restaurant. Upon entering the place we saw Martin in the far distance juggling flap-jacks with one hand and stirring a pot-roast with the other. Fred Spitzhoff and Paul Kraeuter waited on the bunch of us. Spitzhoff was aching to spill soup over us, but Martin was there most of the time and we were saved. After the meal, we parted. I took a flying lizzie to the Alhambra in the evening, and met Amelia Landenberger in the lobby. Amelia told me she was waiting for her husband. In the meanwhile we talked over old times together. She was an ardent suffrag- ette and president of an influential political society. She said that Ruth Schrenzel led the Suffragist party in New Jersey. I hadn’t been to Jersey for five years and I eagerly clamored for more news from the home town. Julia Minder, she said, was Central's physical instructor. Dot Keehner was teaching stenotypy there, too. Ida Bohrer, Doris Bartenow, and Mary Ritten- band were in the office. I could imagine in my mind's eye what a cinch their students were having. Louise Meyerson was a music critic for the New York Times, Amelia told me. Just then Amelia’s other half came and, after the introduction was over (I couldn’t tell you who he was), I was shown to my seat. They were showing an exceptionally good movie. І was startled to see De Vita as the dashing hero. Etta Abramson, Fannie Radler and Lena Creed had im- portant parts in this masterpiece. The next morning I left for the West. On my way to California I stopped off at El Paso, Texas. I had wired Julian Berla to meet me at the station, and he combed the city for all the Centralites he could find. As I stepped off the train I was met by Shirley Seide- man, Marion Millspaugh, Clarence Lehmann and Samuel Harkavy. They all began to speak at once. When the gas attack was over I found that Shirley and Lehmann were partners in a profitable business. Their company had complete charge of the trans-con- tinental subway that was being built at that time. Marion Millspaugh had just been elected President of the Western School Teachers’ League, and Harkavy was a full-fledged public speaker on the advantages of advertising in senior papers. He told me confidentially that he found it exceedingly profitable, and after look- ing him over, I believed him. That evening Berla told me his troubles. He was in a stock company and they couldn't get enough funds to finance their show. I mentioned that George Freibott, who had made a for- tune selling egg-nogs, might be able to help him. At my suggestion Berla aerographed to London for a couple of million dollars. Two days later ће re- ceived the money from Freibott with a statement that more could be had for the asking. With a light heart I went on to my next stop. On arriving at Los Angeles I looked up Philip Gepner in the directory and found that he was owner of a big publishing house. I went up to his place Bessie Ginsberg and The three of us spent some time going over our senior days. and received a royal welcome. Viola Koschorreck were among his office force. Bessie said that Hattie Hueneke was the art critic at the Art Museum of California. Elizabeth McKeown and Rosa Hasenzahl were “roughing it up in the Canadian Rockies, and Ben Seroff still tickled the ivories. Selma Decker and Ruth Park were in Ha- waii, getting material for their respective novels. “Sellie” had been doing a little bit of everything, Viola told us, and Ruth had four novels and a host of short stories to her credit. Marguerite Hauck had gone in for photography and had made quite a success at it. Philip said that John Ceglowski was demon- strating for the Tap-tap Typewriter Company and that I could see him that day at their offices down- town. When I went down to see Ceglowski I found him tapping away like an industrious woodpecker. He stopped long enough to tell me that George Martinka and Benjamin Landis were naval officers on the Pacific fleet that was at anchor in the harbor. That afternoon I had occasion to go to the library. Olive Wyman and Sarah Shaposhnikow made be- witching librarians. With their help I found ту та- terial quickly and had a little time to gossip about our classmates. Jennie Michelstein and Elizabeth Siegal were doing court reporting in New York, they told me. Herbert Wanderer had made quite а name in athletics. Louis Prag and Lillian Zalkin main- tained a dancing school in Philadelphia. Gussie Ler- ner was teaching economics to high school students in New York. I marveled at her strong physical and mental ability. In a ew days I was speeding towards home with a glad heart. At Salt Lake City Rose Ginsberg got on the train and we amused ourselves by reminiscences of Central. I learned further that Sadye Cohen was a society leader in New York's four hundred, and Emanuel Sosnow was employed by the Boston Tran- sit Company to work out its line of operation. I left Rose at Newark. It certainly was good to see the place after five years of traveling. I immedi- ately took an aerobus to Central. It was lunch hour, and after a long search I found Dot Кеећ� ег. I spent the afternoon telling her of the Centralites I had heard of and seen in my travels. I know that the lucky students in her class must have blessed me, for there was no work for them that afternoon. МЕТА nnnm. PN Ge Se nct Jonsey Visits Coney Island in 1925 Overbrook, New Jersey, July !, 1925. Dear Nell: Гуе so much to tell you! Гуе just returned from Coney, and І guess I must have seen everyone from your clas. I suppose I may as well start from the beginning and tell you all. Well, I was walking along the boardwalk and I thought I'd get a hot dog, so stopping at the first wagon I came to, I got it from no less a person than Julian Berla. Не told me that he and George Freibott, an expert flapjack thrower, chummed together. Well, I thought Га go over to Luna Park and see the animals. I saw a sign which read, “Hazel, the Human Spaghetti. This aroused my curiosity, so I went in and there I saw Hazel Harenberg doing a snake dance. Just imagine! Right next to her tent was a sign which read, Why Boys Leave Home.” Being a woman, I wondered why they did and peeped into the tent. There I beheld Dot Keehner's glorious tresses and Dot with her 'this-is-too-much-I-expected- more’ grin. The very first row of spectators included Herman von Oesen and Willie Eichhorn, as might be expected. Well, they had a burlesque show in the next tent and the chorus—well, anyway; it was some chorus. There was Rosa Hasenzahl, she was soubrette, and Catherine Forst was ingenue, while Lena Creed was at one end of the choristers and Ida Bohrer at the other. It really took up most of the chorus. My, how that girl has changed! For the larger, I mean. The wild man from Borneo proved to be Sam Berkowitz, and Fannie Radler was the world’s larg- est woman. I meant to tell you that Hattie Huenke has become a famous pretzel model, and Mary Rittenband poses for animal crackers. I met them together at Coney. Ethel Runyon is head dish-swain at the ‘“Casteroilera,”” Mary told me, and Julia Minder runs a jitney to and from the station. Oh, yes, Nell, I meant to congratulate you on the publication of your novel, “The Decline of the Cork- screw. Did you have me in mind when you de- scribed the heroine? Sellie Decker is one of Coney's lifeguards and has been rescued four times this season. I hear that Sadye Cohen is nurse to the children of the wealthy Herman Greenblatt, the manufacturer of the famous Lizette, a machine which sells for 600 soap wrap- pers. How he has risen! Lillian Goldman has founded the ‘Waitresses’ Union, which includes such noted personages as Shirley, Seideman, Ruth Schrenzel, and Vespasian Pennell. Doris Bartenow is matron of an old-maids’ home and is assisted by Etta Abramson and Anna Schachat. One of the most popular inmates of the home is Earl Robinson. He always did like the girls. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that Bessie Gins- berg and Mae Kampf are models for a landscape painter. Oh, no! Мо insinuations whatever. You remember the theory that Charles Minnefor used to advance, that all people should be given an equal chance to see the world? Well, he is putting his theory into practice. He now operates a ferris wheel down here and is always causing people to get up in the air. Remember how crazy Henry Ruff and Sam Hark- avy used to be to go out West and live among the animals? Well, they own a merry-go-round and Sam са� be seen any day sitting on a bull's horns, waiting for customers. Ruff has just finished painting a sign which reads, Don't feed the animals. I wonder what he means? I saw the funniest thing on the boardwalk that day. Louis Prag was coming along between two signs which read, Get your famous Nut Sandwiches at the Leh- man-Kraueter-Ceglowski Indelicatessen. After seeing all these things I thought I needed something to stimulate me, some tea, so I went over to the Never Again tea room. There, who should be the proprietor but Herbert Pfeil, with Lohse as the head waiter. Г was thunderstruck. I had my tea (which, by the way, had never seen a tea leaf in its life) brought to me by Harry Sherman, all decked out in a butcher's cap and apron.: Suddenly I heard the lights go out, and somewhere in the distance a moon came up and I heard the low crooning tunes of a ukelele, whose owner proved to be Louis Kite. Then I heard the rustling of grass and when I looked up there was Amelia Landenberger, Betsy McKeown, Marguerite Hauck and Viola Koschorreck doing the most bewitching Hawaiian dance I have ever seen. Can you imagine it? It’s beyond me. The next number on the program (I tell you this was some tea room) was a sketch entitled, “Was She on the Wagon When She Fell Off?” Gertrude Ashbey took the part of the vampire, while Philip Gepner was the treacherous villain who robbed the hero, Saul Lipshutz, of his little bride. By the time this was finished the proprietor came and told me I couldn't stay unless I intended to drink more tea, as the waiters were waiting for the cup for another customer. Naturally, I walked out, and took another little stroll up the boardwalk. Soon I came face to face with Ruth Park with her pet poodle. The worst surprise of my life was given me when I saw Sol Pressler wading in the ocean with two little chaps. Of course I’m not saying who they were, but I don't suppose Sol would go in wading with the cook's children. Do you? The next day was Sunday. I thought I would get fixed up a bit, so I went to Anthony De Vita's Beauty Shop and had Sadie Rosenbaum give me some fake sunburn. You ought to see Sadie now, tall, dark and handsome just fits her. Max Klugman is a manicurist for the feet, and Saul Ginsberg is all-round man, picking up the patients and so forth. Well, I went to church that day. It’s the firs t time I didn’t fall asleep. Who could fall asleep with Louise Meyerson up there in the pulpit preaching? While I am on the subject of church I want to tell you that Albert Schwartz is a doctor, Ben Seroff an undertaker, an Fred Spitzhoff a gravedigger. By the way, I wonder if they are partners? It looks that way, doesn't it? I am suspicious. Sarah Shaposhnikow has married a man by the name of Poe. Quite a difference in the length of her autograph now, Did I tell you that George Martinka is a tonsorial artist, and that Emanuel Sosnow poses for one of those “‘going, going, gone hair advertisements? Martinka told me about Esther Donner. She is a model for the Wrigley Spearmint Co. Who would have thought it? Yes, it’s only too true that Wilma Novak acts in Mack Sennett comedies with Marion Millspaugh and Frances Gash. Benjamin Landis is property man for the same company and Rose Ginsberg is matron at the studio. Don't go to sleep yet; I'll be finished in a moment. [ want you to rest knowing that Lena Greenwald has obtained from Congress the right to wear a man's celluloid collar, having the distinction of being the first woman to do so. Well, I guess I am about finished, but I tell you Coney is better than ever with all Central students managing it, and Olive Wyman and Elizabeth Seigal keeping it clean. I tell you we are going to hear great things about it. Just wait and be patient. Please don't be angry with me for putting this all in one letter, but I simply had to get it off my mind or else I would have gotten brainless fever. Yours ever, JONSEY. CLASS SONG I Dear Alma Mater, we must say good-bye, Because our parting hour soon draws nigh, But when we leave thy halls so dear and true, Fond memories will always live of you. II O Central High, to us your duty's done; And all our praises you have nobly won. O Central High, to-night the while we sing Our fervent, everlasting faith we bring. By Rose GINSBERG. ПІ In after years, if our ambition fails, If hopes grow weak, if courage ever pales, O Central High, our vivid thoughts of thee Will spur us on to final victory. CHORUS: We deck your brow with garlands of our praise, As we shall cherish you through all our days, We swell the chorus high with all our might, We sing our homage to the blue and white. SOME PIVOT BOARD MEMBERS GIRLS ON THE STAFF OF THE PIVOT Top row: Hilda Jaixen, Rose Karalunsky. Bottom row : Verna Kinsey, Selma Decker, Nellie Suckerman, Gladys Jones. NOTE—We don't know who the little one in the top row is, Perhaps an enterprising room agent.

And now have at their goal arrived. Hasenzahl and Hueneke, two studious girls, А And Marguerite Hauck, who sets things awhirl. Among the A's two names we find, Fan Abramson, a maid so kind; Gert Ashbey's name does too appear, A lass quite slim, yet o f good cheer. B B takes us to Doris Bartenow's name As “Calamity Jane she's won her fame Berla, we find a “Tailor-Made Man,” And Berkowitz, President of our Clan. C Ceglowski, known as our class pest, Proves true-blue when put to test. Sadye Cohen, an athlete rare, Is dark as Lena Creed is fair. D A dramatic star we find in D, “Sellie” Decker—here's to thee! Esther Donner comes next in line, Then De Vita with looks sublime. E Poor Eichorn all alone we see As we glance through letter “E.” F Our Katie's lisp and naughty wink Sends lads in ecstacies, we think. [is Katherine Forst of whom we speak, Come to 110 and take a peek. George Freibott's name does too appear, The chemistry lab he hovers near. G Of G's we have a score or more There's Greenblatt, whom we all adore, And Gepner, Greenberg and Greenwald: Three Ginsbergs—Bessie, Rose and Saul. Lil Goldman and F. Gash are found, As fashion models they are renowned. I J I and J we must omit, We cannot find a name to fit. K Dot Kehner's auburn (2) crown of glory Is well renowned in song and story. Enter May Kampf and Klugman with wiles; Then Vi Koscherrock—maid of smiles. L Landis and Lehmann we now behold, Then Lipschutz, a politician bold. Gussie Lerner, a jolly lass; Next—the vice-president of our class. M You'll all agree with us, we're sure, That E. McKeown is shy, demure. Michelstein and Myerson— girls of poise; Millspaugh and Minder—the class tom-boys Now come three lads we can't pass o'er, Grave Martinka and gay Minnefor; And Mandelstein deserves his dues As our Kentucky Chaser of Blues.' N N brings out a blushing miss, Wilma Novak, by fortune kissed. O Sadye Oliner we next espy— She's very small but —OH, МУ! P While traveling through the “Р” we meet Ruth Park, in knowledge hard to beat: Pennell and Poles, our athletes true, Then wily Prag comes into view. That Rosenblum has done his share On Central's gridiron we're all aware; S. Rosenbaum must take her stand With Radler, Ки� уо� and Rittenband. S We've many “S's,” you'll allow, Ruth Schrenzel, Seideman and Shaposhnikow ; Nellie Sukerman, told in brief, Tur Prvor's Editor-in-Chief; Siegal and Sosnow found on our list, With Spitzhoff and Seroff will be missed. V Van Oesen next, a handsome blond, А chap of whom the girls are fond. Herbert Wanderer, swift and fleet, With Olive Wyman here we meet. And now the end we nearly see As we pass on to letter 2. Г. Lillian Zalkin, do not us blame, That at the end you find your name, But blame the fates that gave to thee A name that starts with letter “Z.” SAD CHARGE OF THE SENIOR A's Bv GEORGE ROSENBLUM. Forward the Senior Class Silently, mournfully, Silently, onwa rd Out of Central High School Went the seventy-two. Forward the Senior Class! Into the cruel world they pass. Now in 1915, Was there a person late? Ready to meet his fate Sat they undaunted. Ours but to make reply, Ours but to reason why, Ours but to toil and sigh, For four years in Central High. Old Profs to the right of us, Young Profs to the left of us, EPITAPHS I Here lie the echoes of a voice, Once a horror to Miss Joyce. Y ou've heard it ringing every place And seen its owner face to face. Sam Harkavy! II In a lonely country spot Lie the remains of an orange sock. Who would have thought that we would find Y ou to so hard a lot confined? Cruel Greenblatt! ПІ There was a lass of stately form, Who lugged big books, both night and тот; A body bent and bowed with care Is all that's left of а maid once fair. Poor Mary Rittenband! Sly Profs in front of us, Stormed with infernal Dutch, Physics, chem, and such, Trig, and geom, that much, We prayed in vain. Old Profs to the ri ght of us, Young Profs to the left of us, Sly Profs behind us, Watching for “‘cribs.”’ Now we pass from Central old, Not into a world of gold, But a world of thorns and sorrow, So let’s smile and do our best, Work our hardest, do not rest, Do it now, not on the morrow. IV Here in these woods, too sad to relate, A bug-catcher met her fate. Lured on by a mosquito bold She fell into a pond and caught a cold. Poor Amelia Landenberger! V On this tree top you will see One who ran а tin lizzie.” A Pilot brave, he could command, And ruled the 4A's with an iron hand. President Berkowitz! VI Oh how you'll miss them one and all, Those senior A’s, so proud and tall, For so good a class will ne'er be seen As that which graduates, June, '19! We hate ourselves! A SENIOR'S RETROSPECT By BEN SEROFF I “Twas at this school where I began When I was just a little man With dappled cheeks and glaring eyes And pantaloons six times my size; With hair uncombed, for twas no rule To have it combed at grammar school, And shoes half torn, half worn away, III This is the term when many leave, For physics seems to make them grieve. As the fatal cards are turned each day Those unprepared kneel down to pray, Oh! Teacher, Mr. Teacher, mine, Please skip my card, now do be fine; I walked to school to learn each day. And when at last to school I came, To Central High of world-wide fame, They drove me there from place to place, A One Bee seemed a great disgrace. Not only boys and girls knocked me, But our beloved faculty. Instead of losing confidence, As pupils did who lacked good sense, I worked and worked with all my might And always made my answers right; And thus a noble year rolled o'er And I became a sophomore. II And now, dear reader, picture me With history and geometry And English, as in previous terms, All to prepare for outside firms With whom, when I at last succeed, I'll act and earn, striving to feed Those who depend upon my toil From knowledge gained on Central's soil. Latinic phrases are, I guess, But one instance of my success, For result now is consequence And to be fresh is “impudence.” A study I shall ne’er regret Is geometry, nor shall I forget The man who teaches A and B In that stern room of 103. With Central is the school for me, I thus became a Junior B. l'll do my home work every day If you will put my card away.” The bell then rings. Oh! what delight For those who were out late last night, But those who were prepared felt sad, Is't not enough to make one mad? So Joy and Sorrow, hand in hand, Go strolling for their next command, Until the Liberty Bell’’ is heard And then I rush home like a bird That in cold weather rushes south, Escaping winter's opened mouth. So German, Physics, History, Made out of me a Senior B. IV This is the term I have most faith, For I expect to graduate. I therefore study day by day And put all ашрз and cranks” away Until the good news I will hear, You'll graduate now, don't you fear! My pleasure will then come to me, My sports and all my jollity. Four years have gone just as sweet dreams From sleepers vanish, and it seems But yesterday that I began, A bashful, tattered, little man, To enter daily Central's door, And now I leave for evermore. OUR SAILORS By GERTRUDE ASHBEY. The great gray ship went plunging forth, On its long voyage to the north, Commanded by a man so true, Who'd guide it o'er the ocean blue. Like a phantom gray it went, O'er the deep. It had been sent, To guard the old flag on the sea, To fight for right and liberty. The sailors were a brave young crew, Who'd cast their lots on Neptune's blue, They'd promised that they'd all be true, To fight for our Red, White, and Blue. The great gray ship was rocked and tossed, The sailors knew that they'd be lost, Unless the wireless would work, And send their message to the clerk. The message was received afar, A boat was launched to help the tars, Our ship was saved, our sailors too, And still they sail the ocean blue.

Only some is dummer than others. And some'r so much different. F'rinstance. We got a dummy home which is operated by ropes. One rope goes up n the other down. 'N yet we wouldn't think of classifying it with some of the dummies that operate it. Then we have the dumbbell. What, we ask, is more unen- lightening than а wise crack by a dumbbell? But there is a dummy that causes more trouble to ye poor laboring Pivot Editor than it would seem possible. Every month she has to paste this dummy up for fair. For an inanimate bundle of papers it takes the cake in the trouble-making classe She no sooner gets it to her liking than, poof! Another ad comes in that she has to make room for. Ah, now it is complete! Nope, Чаш ! The printer bawls her out for havin’ too much copy on a page and— well, we hope to tell you, the first hundred years are the worst. Notebooks It has been estimated by authorities that if all the notebooks used by high-school students in their senior year were placed end on end they would reach from here to Nyschmnonabl, in the Klondike region, just beyond Mesoptamia. We have cause to believe it, too, for being a senio; we have come in very close contact with the so-called note-taking species. And perhaps have been і� the class ourselves. _ Wouldn't doubt it. Now, the question comes to us (and to all free-thinking people) as to the disposition of these same notebooks after their primary use to their orig- inators has been exhausted. Are they taken home and kept, to be handed down to the next generation? Are they torn across and committed to the waste- basket? Are they flung into the stove to have as their last torment the flames that lick about their leaves and finally devour them? Or are they passed on to the first friend who is due to take the same subject? Ауе, there's the rub! And, inclining to the last theory, we have a hunch that the college student was right when he said, “It took me four years to learn that, hang it all, and now Гуе lost all my notebooks. .

Sometimes it falls, and sometimes you fail. It's a case of in and out and around and back again. After two hours of this gruelling chase, the Ad- Getteress (yes, it was a girl) concluded that all people could be divided into (1) those who advertised, and (2) those who didn't. The first class could again be subdivided into (a) those who were willing to be con- vinced, and (b) those who came across with the ad without any palavering. The second set included (a) those who let you talk and then turned you down, and (b) those who wouldn't let you even talk. The first ad She got was a full page affair and it sure did make her feel fine. Thereafter, in quick succession, followed a series of shocks that somewhat cooled her enthusiasm and She remarked grimly to herself, You can bet that if it wasn't for my own Senior Pivor Га call quits. One evening after supper she called on the owner of PIVOT AD-GETTER DECKER the movie around the corner. “He can't do any more than say 'No', She thought.

And with all the experience gained in writing the other contract, she began with a flourish on the new о� е. Let те see—, he began slowly.

Then, with a freshly powdered nose, raced out again, eager for new fields to conquer. Well, of course, she didn’t conquer any more such glorious con- tracts, but she did manage to corral two lonesome eighth-pages, so her return home was not lacking in triumph. Now, she thought, “if I could only do that every night. But she didn’t. THE Pivor acknowledges a contribution from Teddy Valentine. Let's hear from you again, Teddy.

DONNELLY LEADS BASEBALL TEAM A meeting of the Varsity baseball team was held on the 20th of April for the election of a captain for the coming season. When the smoke of battle cleared, it was found that Eugene Donnelly, of last year's team, was selected by the boys for their leader. Don- nelly played catcher last year and will hold the same position this spring. CENTRAL OPENS WITH A WIN The Central baseball team opened the season with a win over Montclair Academy at Montclair, on April 22, by the score of 9-4. The feature of the game was the pitching of Carangelo, of Central, who had 19 strikeouts to his credit and allowed the moun- tain boys only one hit. The Central team showed up well for its first time out and impressed everybody with its ability to hit when hits meant runs. The team started off in the first inning when Lehmann hit for the circuit with two men on the bases and from then on good pitching by Carangelo and good hitting by the Centralites combined to put the game on ice. Charles, Lehmann, Carangelo and Donnelly showed well for the winners and Stauffer and Ebersole for the losers. The score by innings follows: Central Z 8—0.2—3—9—9 Montclair е 2.0 0.0.2 Batteries—Carangelo and Donnelly; Kleinhaus and Scott. 2 0—9 0 0—4 Ebersole, CENTRAL GRABS ANOTHER Following their good work of April 22, the Cen- tral baseball team beat the East Siders on the 25th to the tune of 7-3 in a fairly well played game. In the very first inning the Central team got started when, with two men on the sacks, Donnelly, the Central catcher, rapped out a screeching double to left field. 55 From then on the Centralites were never headed. Pertzowitz was on the mound for the home team and he held the East Side team to five hits in addition to striking out nine men. The Down Neckers man- aged to squeeze in two of their runs in the seventh inning and one in the ninth. Central scored in the first, fourth and seventh innings. Charles, Lehmann and Donnelly hit well for the winners and the whole Central team played well in the field. The score by innings follows: Central me е Ө East Side... 0 0 0 Batteries—Pertzowitz and Donnelly; Bogatko and Benkert. N. Y. U. MEET Central finished second in the meet held at New York University recently, being nosed out for first place honors by the team of Bethlehem Prep., of Bethlehem, Penna. The absence of Captain Dan Caprio was felt. The Central runners who placed in this meet were: Helbig, in the broad jump; second. Freibott, in the broad jump; third. Beattie, in the quarter-mile; second. Hooper, in the 880; fourth. Douglas in the one-mile; second. The Central relay got only third place because of an accident to one of the runners. THE RELAY CARNIVAL Central’s relay team finished second in the one- mile national relay championship of America at the Baltimore Polytechnic School in a closely contested race. Central was running about even with the Marylanders on the third lap of the race and when Helbig was about to hand the baton to Beattie, the anchor man of the Baltimore team crossed in front of Beattie in order to receive the baton from his man, yf � е Ја NY eT с ү ш) This unintentional foul threw Веаше out of stride and resulted in a loss of ten yards, which was a little too much for the lanky Centralite to make up, but at the tape he was closely pressing the Baltimore entry for first place and had the race gone but a few yards further the chances are the Central man would have caught him. At that it was a very creditable per- formance as the best high schools in the country were entered and Central was placed in Class I of the schools in the event.

Members 15 Cents to Non-members CENTRAL'S NEW SERVICE FLAG Central now has her new service flag, a flag with the stars so fixed that they form the number 251 on the field of white. Central has responded nobly to the call to the colors, just as she has in every other war activity. Two hundred and fifty-one our boys offered their all for America. To those two hun- dred and fifty-one Central soldiers who will soon come home to us, we are privileged to add gold stars for three Central boys who have Central's gold stars are for Private Ernest Porter, Lieutenant Earl Pierson and Sergeant David Schnurr. of gone west. Although these boys have made the supreme sacri- fice, as yet there are no gold stars in Central's ban- ner.

Three members of Central's faculty are on our roll of honor, Lieutenant Harry ( Doc ) Sargent, Miss Louise French and Mr. Benjamin Strang. The women of America have done their share in the Great War, just as willingly as have the men. Any boy in the service will.give the American women credit for their work. If the boys will give them credit, why not Central? We have asked for the names of the Central boys in the service and the students of the school have re- sponded to the request. We now want the students to find out the names of the Central girls who are in the service. So far we have the name of only one girl from Central who is working for Uncle Sam. Ruth Eskowitz is a yeowoman in the U. S. Navy. There must be other Central girls in the service, and Central, as their Alma Mater, wants to give these girls their due. We want to add as many red stars as possible to our flag. CENTRAL SERVICE TO LOSE ITS MOST ACTIVE MEMBERS bers of Central's Тће majority of the mem leading club, the Central Service Club, are senior A’s. These students deserve commendation for the good work which they have done during their school careers in Central. They are continually promoting school spirit, securing new things for the school, and serving the school in every way possible. The club is a leading factor in the support of ће С. О. The chief means of raising money this term was the Friday afternoon dances, of which Saul Lipschitz, a senior, was manager. The leading officers of the club are seniors. Harry Bromberg is president and Sam Berkowitz is vice- president. With the coming graduation the club will lose: Philip Gepener, Julian Berla, Clarence Lehmann, David Mandelstein, Saul Lipschitz, Charles Minnefore, Martin Martinelli, Vespasian Pen- nell, George Rosenblum and William Levey. 57 CENTRAL ORCHESTRA David Rothenberg of 320 acted as leader and supervisor of the orchestra in place of Mr. R.

Lohse: Some one said that the Crown Prince was half-witted.”” Lipschitz: ““Who gave the boob such a boost?” First Isadore BY PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF 1B's IN CENTRAL, BOARD OF EDUCA- TION SAVES LARGE SUM In these days of high speed and multiple produc- tion, coupled with maximum efficiency and low cost, it is worth while to note any factors contributing to tke general economic betterment. We have here in Central a large body of IB's, many of whom are taking the technical course. These beginners all have work in the joinery shops of Mr. Langlas and Mr. Klenke. Instead of putting their efforts on useless and wasteful exercises, after acquir- ing a certain degree of skill, these 1 B's are put to work at constructing various useful articles of shop furniture. There are in construction twenty-two joinery shop benches, ten of which are already completed. The benches are designed to include several feat- ures and conveniences which were found to be lack- ing on those obtainable for the trade. The size is two feet wide by four feet long by three feet high. The tops are made of a select quality of maple, two and one-half inches thick and hand- scraped. At the back of the top is a depression or tray used as a receptacle for tools. There is usually immediately beneath the top, a drawer extending the whole width and nearly the whole length of the bench, but this has been eliminated on these new Cen- tral models as an inconvenient adjunct. In place of this drawer an open shelf is provided, which enables the student to stow away all unnecessary pa rapherna- lia which would formerly have interfered with his freedom of action. Beneath this shelf is a set of six drawers, arranged in two rows, which are for each student's individual cutting tools. The fronts of these drawers are made of chestnut, while the remainder is of sound, knotty pine. In the purchased benches, by simply removing one drawer, the drawer immediately beneath could be laid bare to intruding hands, but in Central's model, there is a stationary partition be- tween the drawers, which makes for added security. Instead of having an open bottom these benches are built clear to the floor, which saves work for the janitor, as he does not have to dig under, and dislodge accumulated shavings. The front is finished with a dark stain, which furnishes a good background for the brass handles of the drawers. The rest is finished with a high stain and the whole is covered with a smooth varnished finish. The color scheme of the whole is in pleasing harmony with the rest of the shop. The equipment consists of a head and a tail vise made in the Central machine shop, under the super- vision of Mr. Moore, head of the Technical Depart- ment. Arranged with an eye for utility, there are fastened to the rear and the two sides numerous appli- ances for the handling of tools. This is an improve- ment over the old forms. To save labor, which was practically lessened by half, many parts were cut and shaped in the various mill and shop machines of the school. Despite the various improvements and additions, these benches are being constructed at less than half the cost price of similar ones. In addition to this form there is being designed in the mechanical drawing department of Central a double bench, with the intention of conserving space by the elimination of an aisle between. A further saving is being effected for the Board of Education by our technical 1B’s in the construc- tion of fifty small chairs for the kindergartens of our grammar schools. These chairs are made entirely of quartered oak and stand twenty inches high with a maximum breadth of thirteen and one-half inches. They have four legs and a raised back. All dimensions аге of ample size, so that the result is a durable, handsome piece of furniture. At the most, one of these chairs will cost fifty cents, or at least two hundred per cent. less than that at which they could be bought. This practical application of principles taught at Central will be further carried on by the students as they advance through the successive grades of shop work. This marks a departure from the old routine of teaching, in the direction of progress and efficiency. REGULAR STAFF OF THE PIVOT Top row: Saul Lipschitz, Philip Gepner and Saul Tischler.

JOINT MEETING OF MATHEMATICS TEACHERS On May 3rd, in Central, there was а meeting of the Association of Teachers of Mathematics in the Middle States and Maryland and the Association of Mathematics Teachers of New Jersey. Principal William Wiener opened the morning session with an address of welcome. The response was made by Dean Herbert E. Hawks, of Colum- bia University. The afternoon session was opened by Mr. Harri- son E. Webb, whose address was on “‘Certain Unde- fined Elements and Tacit Assumptions in the First Book of Euclid's Elements.” _ Two officers of the New Jersey Association are Central teachers. Mr. Webb is President and Mr. Hegeman is the Secretary- Treasurer. TENNIS CLUB ORGANIZES . Through the untiring and incessant efforts of Harry Sherman and Herman Pertzowitz, a tennis club was recently formed in the school. At a recent meeting the following officers were elected: President, Julian Berla; vice-president, Amelia Landenberger; secre- tary-treasurer, Harry W. Sherman; G. O. Delegate, Louis Gabrowitz. Mr. Orrin W. Snodgrass has con- sented to act as faculty adviser for the club. АП those interested in the project are urged to come to Room 212 the first and third Tuesdays of the month. FRIENDLY CRITICISM OF THE PIVOT By Козе BASKIN, of June, '17 (Former Editor of THE Prvor) Dear Pivot: Howdee! Glad to see you. Same old brisk and cheerful spirit, I see. New virtues and new faults added to the old. Which is a good thing, when you think of it, and even when you don't. I notice with pleasure an editorial named “Do You Wear Smoked Glasses? — An article like that in the editorial column (where necessary but uninter- esting didactic statements are the rule) is а pleasant relief. Whoever wrote it—do it again, and lots more. My friend, will you never grow up in the matter of fiction? You must learn that your readers are not all children, and may require stories a little more grown-up in tone than “Spoiled Strategy.” Now for your joke department (for which I’ve al- ways had a secret tenderness). Some of the jokes are very good, and some are old. I’m sure folks would forgive you a smaller collection sooner than they do repetition. But one does not quarrel with the established eccentricities of an old friend. Between you and me and the school, dear Pivor, I've never been feverishly interested in athletics. So I was prepared to read your sport news with my usual hop, skip and a jump. But those write-ups certainly got hold of my attention and pinned it down to those pages. Nothing amateurish about them, nor about the School News write-ups. Anyway, your general tone is a little more grown- up than when I saw you last. I hope it will be still more so when I see you again. CLASSROOM REPORTERS The following have been acting as reporters for classrooms: Hannah Grossman, 101; Norman C.

HERZBERG Dr x ШШШ By GEORGE ROSENBLUM YOUR FAVORITE SHOE PASTE We use shoe paste continually and yet we never stop to consider the elements and compounds that go to make up this paste. The paste is made of а mix- ture of lamp-black, oil, a small quantity of molasses, a little vinegar and a little concentrated sulphuric acid. These materials are ground together until a smooth paste results. All shoe pastes are made prac- tically the same way, the only difference being the trade mark it bears. WHY WE USE BLUEING In washing clothes a blue coloring matter is used to make white cloth cleaner. In fact we make our clothes dirtier chemically when we add this blue col- oring matter to the clothes. The white linen, after it is dried by the sun, is yellowish, and in order to make the clothes look whiter and not to make them cleaner, we use a blue coloring matter. We must use a blue coloring matter and can use no other: color because yellow and blue are complimentary colors; that is, they mix to produce on the eye the impression of white light. The yellow of the sun-bleached linen and the blue of the blueing produce the impression of white light. RED INK When correcting your experiments you find you are short of red ink, mix one volume of Ferric Chloride and three volumes of Potassium Sulphurcyanide. The result is a red ink. When it is impossible to loosen your fountain pen to fill, loop your handkerchief around the pen near the thread. Hold one end of the handkerchief tight and pull on the other and the pen will soon come loose— perhaps. ARTIFICIAL DIAMONDS How many of you know diamonds consist of the same substance as charcoal does, namely carbon? Small diamonds can be made by heating, in an elec- tric furnace, iron mixed with pure carbon until a tem- perature of about 3,500 degrees is reached. The mixture is then suddenly cooled by plunging it into cold water, thus solidifying the outside crust of iron while the interior remains a molten mass. The inte- rior is under severe pressure, as the iron expands when cooling and the interior gradually cools. The iron is then dissolved by sulphuric acid to separate the iron from the diamonds. Corporal Cecil A. Smith, son of Mr. R. A. Lassett Smith, Head of the Music Department, has been in the Chemical Warfare Service, stationed at Yale Univer- sity. Smith was a Centralite for two years. Ted Koerner, 3rd Co. C. A. C., Post Hospital, Fort Hamilton, N. Y., writes: “Much obliged for THE Pivots. Feeling fine. Clifford L. Conklin is on the U. S. S. Wyoming. I B’S, THIS WAY!

Cigar was in the box and had plenty of smoke. Horn was playing first base and Fiddle was on second. Corn was in the field. Apple was Umpire. When Ax came to bat he chopped one and made a Cake walk and Sawdust filled the bags. Song made a hit and Twenty made score. Every foot of Ground kicked and they said Apple was rotten. Balloon started to pitch but went up in the air. Then Cherry tried it but was wild. When Spider caught the Fly everybody cheered. Needle tried to Umpire. He was sharp enough but had only one eye. Ice kept cool until he was hit by a pitched ball; then you should have heard the Ice Cream. Cabbage had a good head and kept quiet. Grass covered lots of ground in the feld. Organ refused to play. Hornet stung the ball but it fell into the hands of Clock. Bread loafed around until they put him out. In the fifth inning Wind blowed around what he could do and Hammer began to knock; then the trees began to leave. Knife was put out for cutting first base. The crowd roasted Peanut all through the game, and everybody kicked when they put Light out. Then Meat was put out at the plate. Т� е score was | to 0 and the game was over. Door said that if he had pitched he would have shut them out. There was a lot of betting on the game and Soap cleaned up, but Eggs went broke. —Ex. é 1 When you punish your boy, do you spring that old one on him about how you are only doing it be- cause you love him?” We have a friend who tried that, and his son said, 'If I were big enough, Dad, I'd return your lov e.

On the day following the adoption of this reso- lution only 236 ballots were cast, although 1,300 teachers had paid dues. Eighty per cent. of the members failed to vote, because, in order to vote, a member had to appear in person at the Central High School. The Central High School faculty, if it had wanted to, could have polled 87 votes, but, as an act of courtesy to the faculties of the other schools, for whom it was less convenient to vote, the Central teachers refrained from voting.
