L- I- E - : Arn: E lg TIE : S E E Q I : : I-IE Commercial High School fills a very definite place in the educational t lt. - field. Its students for the most part kH0W just Why they Come 0 Tv They know Just what they are going to do in school and what they are going to do when they leave the school. This definite aim is a great advantage. ' At present the press of the city has many . I u ointed out that America is far behind Europe in such training. That is trueg and it is soibecause Europe better than America sees the need of training fort any serious and difficult work. The old notion used to be that business could be best learned by practising business. The same was held with regard to law and medicine. But who would now employ a lawyer or doctor who had made no regular study of his profession, passed no examinationsp and won no certificates from the learned in his line? It will be increasingly true that young men and women will study the science of business before beginning the practise of the art of statements as to the crying need for commercial education. It is p business. The Commercial l-ligh School aims to teach young men the theory of business. It does not profess to turn out experienced business managers. It does turn out boys who can figure, keep accounts, take dictation and transfer it into neat and correct type-written form, are acquainted with the general outlines of the chief forms of trade, know the great business routes and methods of transportation, and have enough knowledge of business law to tell whether an ordinary contract is worth anything or not. A young man with this degree of knowledge is worth a great deal to an office. The great difference between a commercial high school and a private business school is that the high school is much broader. It does not content itself with a few months' training, having as immediate object the fitting of the pupil to go directly at a set of books or a typewriter. It goes at the whole operation much more thoroughly and systematically. It aims to train the whole boy, not merely the stenographer or bookkeeper. 'To this Gnd ,gs course gives him a good deal that is not deemed strictly commercial. lt aims to teach him good English, so that he can speak and write correctly. And that is what the ordinary storekeeper cannot do. It gives him iust cnnugh ltr mathematics to act as a training in exact statement and rocess It teaches him p . history and civics that he may be able to grasp the meaning and tendency of legislation and criticise intelligently the great business of government. It opens up to him the great world of science, with the operations of which he is sure to come into contact very soon. It offers him the study of one or more of the great modern business languages, a knowledge of which is increasingly valuable as our trade expands. It trains him to take care of his body and to know something of its needs and dangers. To all this, it adds so glimpse into the wonderful worlds of music and of art, so that he may be more than a mere office machine. All through his course he looks forward to the day when he will not be a lowly subordinate in a business office, but a manager, a proprietor, a useful and honored citizen. All these things the Commercial High School of Brooklyn is trying to do. And it is now trying harder than ever before. lts course has been lengthened to four years, so that its graduates are less childish and more manly. That one year makes a vast difference in the .young man's capacity to take in the fundamentals of his future life work. Q The proof that the Commercial I-Iigh School is doing good work is found in the fact that its graduates are eagerly sought by business houses all over the city. Ainumber of banks and great firms regularly apply to it for helpers. Many are disappointed because we cannot furnish the young business men fast enough. me What the Commercial High School just now needs is not better patronage from business men, but cooperation with business men who will give our specially trained students opportunities worthy of them, who will interest themselves in the school and suggest to its management ways of keep- ing in touch with the most modern and approved business methods. The Commercial High School welcomes most heartily the efforts which the New York Chamber of Commerce is making to improve and to extend commercial education in this second business city of the world.

About three hun- dred boys are expecting to enter the main building in February. Baseball, basketball and football enthu- siasts have had opportunity for practice and inter-class contests. The ball grounds are within five minutes, walk of the school. The work of the Camera Club is in evidence in the many pictures relating to the - it Annex, which are found in this volume. The musical talent in the school is unusually good. The orchestra will furnish many valuable additions to the musical organizations of the main school. The boys of the Annex are most fortunate in having large, light and airy class rooms in which every one has a seat and a desk for himself. They have a lunch room, and a gymnasium in which the physical director teaches every pupil in the school. Altogether the Annex uses sixteen rooms, all on the second floor of old Public School No. 30, lZ0 Wolcott Street, besides having an auditorium seating eight hundred. The weekly auditorium exercises consist of speaking. singing. and performances upon musical instruments by pupils of the school. The Annex can be reached directly by the Crosstown and l-licks Street lines of the B. R. T., and by the Van Brunt Street line, which passes within a half block of the school. All of the B. R. T. lines transfer either to the Crosstown or the l-licks Street line, and the DeKalb Avenue. the Smith Street, the Coney Island Avenue, and the Franklin Avenue lines transfer to VanBrunt Street, via. l-lamilton Avenue. The Annex can be reached from any part of the city for one fare. IQ 1 'mr 1 1 In Wg 3 men LT DR. NVILLIAM FAIRLEY, Principal ' DEPARTMENT OF ACCOUNTS iWVi1liam E. Doggett, First Assistazzt A.

' ' 4' i A the schoolg also, to cooperate with other departments in giving suth general culture as will be most useful in business life. The business men of the city are demanding greater attention to the teaching of business subjects in our schools. Recently the Chamber of Commerce appointed a committee to aid such training in every way possible. Much is hoped for from the cooperation of the above named committee and from individuals. The subjects included in this department are arithmetic. bookkeeping. correspondence, commercial geography, commercial law. and pensmaiiship, The course in aritmetic is designed to familiarize pupils with opertitions frequently used in business. Special attention is given to rapidity and .itmiie .ity . Bookkeeping receives more attention than any of the other subjects as it rerun: es more practice. Various forms of books and accounts for ditlcrent lines ot business are illustrated. Correspondence is conducted on prxrctituil lures. Not only are businesslike letters written, but many received by city liruis .uv reid and the form and contents discussed in class.

The pupils take great interest in discussing a case from real life and in finding the principle applying to it. In securing a position the lirst requisite, apart from a reasonably pleasing personality, is the ability to write well. Not enough time is given to this subject, but rapid progress is made and many pupils voluntarily practice long hours to acquire business penmanship. Teachers of this department are interested in clubs and various activities of the school. Among these are the Pen Club, Advertising Club, Chess Club, Employment Bureau, Lunch Room, General Qrganization, Arista, athletics, The Annual, etc. - Because Mr. Doggett is in charge of an annex, Arthur Ralph Kip has recently been appointed first assistant in commercial subjects.

But to do this the young stenographer must possess three things: hrst, technical skill, second, culture, which includes proliciency in l'i,!ts1llSlll and third, character. The young man who possesses only the tirst ot these three essentials is almost inevitably destined to remain a low-salmied steno :ta pher through life.

I 1 VX ll DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH I ,. I-IE aim of the Work in English is naturally in harmony with that of education as a whole. But in particular the course in English seeks D to assist the pupil to acquire the social, the institutional, and the literary inheritances that have been laid up for him by the human race. It helps to provide him with language, the instrument with which he is to acquire the greater part of his learning. It co-operates with other training in producing habits of order, accuracy, and neatness. lVlore than any other division of high school Work, it has as its duty the forming of morals both small and great concerning conditions as diverse as appear in literature or arise in the Written or spoken discourse of the pupil. By seeking to produce lucid and refined speech, it opens the way for success in business. It teaches the pupil to spell, to compose, to punctuate, to write effective letters. It teaches him to think: to pass back to causes, to go forward to results. It would enfranchise his judgment and show him, how out of information may come wisdom. It would teach him how to secure a just hearing for his ideas whether he discourse at his desk or in public. By increasing the radius of the pupil's influence, the course in English seeks to magnify the life of the pupil for the sake of the pupil and the state. It would improve moral and aesthetic taste. It tries to develop the pupil's sense of proportion. ln a broader way even than does art, it would inculcate a feeling for form. Not only would it lit the student to cope with the real, but it would point out to him how beyond its boundaries lies all that will ever better mankind-the coming methods and morals in business, the hypotheses of science, the visions of the engineer, whatever in human endeavor is to be and now is not. Thus it would broaden 23 ' 5 ' 1 -11.1. 1 V Department of German A and intensify for him the content of the Word, ideal. The course in English endeavors to promote human happiness, not only by fitting the student to serve the public and himself, not only by fitting for successful vocations, but for successful avocations as Well. It aims to help those it trains to find pleasure of the highest sort near at hand. 'lt would not only assist in laying up the wealth that permits leisure, but it would also engender such habits of thought and enjoyment as would make possible a contented and happy old ageg for that, after all, is one of the surest tokens of a well-proportioned and successful life. It seems to matter little what texts are adopted if only they are efficient for securing these results. Literary Works should not be used as ends in themselves but rather as funds of particulars that can be drawn upon in establishing the general principles that are comprised in the educational ann. R. P. St. bl. DEPARTMENT OF GERMAN I-IE Work in German is adapted strictly to the needs of the .ixeiixtge young man who is entering upon a business career in New York ti-tx llt presupposes no knowledge of German whatever, eitliei lioiii the elementary school or from the home. Because of the large Geriiiaiie .'Xiiieiie,in population in this city, there ispractically no demand for pi-epariiig: young men for the duties of salesmen or correspondents where U-eriimii would lie the language of the business life. The time allotted to the study ot tieiinaii in the schools precludes the possibility of meeting fairly .ind lionestlx stttli a demand even if it were made. i E 2-t Department of Spanish Experience has proven fand this is from the testimony of our own graduatesl that a reading knowledge of German has a high commercial value to the average young man in business in New York. Hence, emphasis is put upon this 'phase of the work in the class room. Upon the satisfactory completion of our course of study in German, a graduate of the Commercial High School finds himself able to understand any ordinary communication, written or printed, commercial paper, trade journal, or newspaper item that might naturally find its way into any office. He would be able to frame an intelligent answer to any routine correspondence in which technical trade expressions did not figure too largely. lncidentally, he would understand and be able to make himself understood in such stray conversation as would be found in an ordinary non-German house. He would have solid foundation upon which to build the structure of conversational ability quickly and readily if the opportunity and the demand should ever occur. With the additional time given to German in the new four-year course of study, more emphasis will be placed upon the strictly commercial end of the work. It is hardly to be hoped that we will enlarge the scope of our efforts but shall be able to do what we are now attempting in a much better fashion. 95 .am 1 The more advanced students of tl1C.l1PPef grades have Round enlofl Mr' fit ' the German Club an organization under t e Cafe d pro 111 1 .

At the end of the second year the average student is able totread simple Spanish prose, to translate into Spanish connected passages of average difficulty, and to carry on a conversation on subjects requiring a knowledge of the vocabulary of everyday life. During the third year the work has a distinctly commercial trend. The student is so thoroughly drilled in the forms and idioms commonly occurring in business letters that he uses them without effort. At the end of the third year the average student is able to translate from Spanish into English and from English into Spanish, without the aid of a dictionary except for occasional technical terms, any letter on an ordinary business subject. A large number of our graduates are now filling positions where they use Spanish daily. Among the business houses employing our graduates on account of their mastery of Spanish are: The National Paint Works. 'lwlrc Kelly and Jones Co., G. Amsinck 81 Co., Standard Oil Co..

I ' Q 3 1 fn r DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY 1- -- 7 - -,- Eli. i ISTORY is the science of the evolution of man in his activities as a social W, being. While it is, perhaps, an inexact science, yet it is to a large extent subject to method and law, and by it we can trace the evolution of the society of to-day in its social, industrial, and commercial phases. ln the Commercial l-ligh School we try especially to work out the com- mercial and industrial side of history, by laying especial emphasis on such topics as the Ciilds, the Hanseatic League, the Commercial Empires of the East and West, and by a logical development tracing their evolution into the Trade Unions, Monopolies and Eastern questions of to-day. Qur chief purpose is to discipline the minds of our pupils and to make them capable of forming sound, independent judgments of the political issues of the day and of the perplexing problems of their future commercial life. With the larger amount of time to be devoted to history and economics in the future it is to be hoped that we can still further develop the study of such current topics as Tariffs, Reciprocity, the Aldrich Bank Plan, Labor Conditions, etc. Then any graduate of the Commercial High School should be able to handle any subject by logical research and development treatment. T. C. T. 27 DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY E are living in an age of machines. Progress in physical and chemical processes has been so rapid that one is almost bewildered by the multiplicity of 1l'lVCHtlOHS of labor-saving devices. A quick comprehen- sion of the more common and useful of these is becoming increasingly a necessary asset to the business man. It is the aim of the science department so to develop the subjects of physics and chemistry that they may not only furnish the student with a fund of fact, but also bring him into intimate contact with real processes and real machines. Ability to see through one machine aids in the comprehension of others. The following cuts are inserted to illustrate the kind of work we are doing in addition to the customary instruction based on the text book. ln i l , K l Soap Nlade in the Laboratory Each Boy Makes a Motor in a Period order to stimulate individual effort, the members of tbe department stand ready to suggest problems and render such assistance as is possible to the students who are already engaged in the construction of machines, or in carrying on F!! chemical processes at home.

This study is largely experimental. The dillcicnt lands of 'structures developed by plants and animals in relation to thc rlncl lilc' processes fsuch as nutrition, respiration, excretion, protection, vital are stinlictll and the uses of many of these structures are brought ont. lt is riimitlt-tl to teach the economic relationsn of various plants and animals lroin ilu- poinl of View of their contribution to or interference with lnmitin iiwltaw. For example, it is not very important for us to know that the cotton lwnsnwss of this country amounts to more than one hundred and lilly million dollars in .lil Department of Biology one year, but it is important for us to know that the cotton plant is significant to mankind because it yields food for man and domestic animals, that it yields fibers for clothing and for other purposes, and that the residue can be used for fertilizing or for fuel. It is not enough to know that physicians make a living by curing sick people, it is necessary for us to know that certain diseases are caused in such ways that we can easily prevent their spread,,if we take proper measures. We must learn that plants and animals are absolutely essential, not only to our happiness, but to our very existence, and that other plants and animals offer obstacles to our well-being. We must know that by encouraging some organisms human happiness is increased, and that similar results are obtained by exterminating other organisms. lVloreover, we must learn that the behavior of our own bodies may be regulated in a way that will contribute to greater happiness. These are the practical and the significant aspects of biology which We are attempting to teach. It is, therefore, impossible for us to divide our study as is frequently done in most high schools, namely, into botany, Zoology and human physiology. We do not have time for, nor are we particularly interested in the classification of plants or of animals, nor are we greatly concerned with the processes and the relations that are peculiar to plants as such, or to animals as such. We are chiefly concerned with the great principles that are just as true of plants as they are of ourselves or of other animals. 31 Department of Mathematics Another aspect of our Work deals with the relation of life to the soil or the land. We thus have to learn the principles of forest conservation-not from the point of view of improving the lumber business, but from the point of view of the nation,s dependence upon the forest for its timber. for its soil preservation, for its Water supplies, for its protection against destructive floods. ln the same way our concern with streams and fisheries regulation is not so much to protect the fish-dealer's business, as it is to protect the fish supplies for the people who are to eat fish, and to protect the health of the people who get water from the streams. It will thus be seen that our biology course is not coiiiiiici'cial in the sense that it teaches each pupil a better way to make prolits in his lwiisiiicss. or to increase the returns from his investment. The priinary purpose so Lu ai the individual gain is concerned is to teach each pupil to iniiltc the lit-si use Ol his .own organism, by keeping it in health and by acqiiii'iiig lialuts ol vtlitien! work.

During the first year three periods a week have been given to commercial arithmetic. The business houses of Greater New York are constantly applying to Commercial for young men who are rapid and accurate in the use of figures. It is our aim to prepare our boys to qualify for these positions and to equip them with the practical mathematical training that experience shows they will constantly need in business life. A masterly skill in performing the fundamental operations is the all-important work. Drills in interest, bank discount, cash balances, partial payments, adjusting of partnership accounts, etc., incidentally afford valuable information, but are primarily the means of liberal practice in obtaining skill and accuracy in figures. Algebra is given three periods a week during the first half of the second year, and four periods during the latter half of the year. A course is designed to meet the needs of pupils who are unlikely to take up advanced mathematical work. Dexterity in the manipulation of algebraic quantities is not sought so much as skill in the solutions of equations. Special stress is placed upon the solution of practical problems. At the same time an effort is made to develop in the pupil the power of abstract thought that comes from the careful study of algebra. Although the time given to the subject is considerably less than is required by the Board of Regents, and no attempt is made to follow their syllabus, many pupils are able to pass the Regents' Examinations. Geometry is studied during the third year, three periods during the first half, and four during the second half of the year. Three books are covered, with special attention to the exercises and to the supplementary lists of numerical exercises and problems in geometrical drawing. The supplemen- tary work is designed to test the knowledge of the pupil in the mathematics of the entire course, and problems are selected which require in their solution work in arithmetic, algebra, and geometry.

A boy will graduate with that essential to success in life, a well-trained body. l-le will know the correct way to walk, to run, to jump, to climb, and to vault. l-le will know something about wrestling as a means of self-defense, and about folk-dancing as a cor- rective of awkwardness. l-le will be familiar with various exercises on the horse, parallel bars, and horizontal bar. l-le will not only have a training in exercises which promote good posture and gracefulness, but most important, he will have had training in exercises which promote endurance and general vigor. He will have a larger stock of that disease-resisting force which we call vitality. We try not only to benefit the boy physically while he is a student here, but we try to develop an interest in the care of his body and to form a habit of exercise which will remain with him after he leaves the school. Instruction in personal hygiene is given by means of short talks in the physical training lesson. As far as our time will allow we examine the boys for remediable physical defects likely to hinder the boy's progress in school. The heart and lungs of every boy are examined. As far as possible the eyes are tested for defective vision, and nose and throats examined for adenoids and large tonsils. ,,- O3 The gymnasium is kept open after school hours every day for boys who wish to take further exercise. It would be Wise for all boyS, C5PCClallY the weakerones, to take advantage of the opportunity. They should work faithfully at least two afternoons a Week on the gymnastic apparatus. .A year of vaulting, rope-climbing, Wrestling, tumbling and apparatus exercise would give a boy a chest and shoulders that would command the respect of boys bigger than himself. Tvvo years of this and he would be physically the superior of nine out of ten boys. Unfortunately the average boy when he exercises in the gymnasium does nothing but run. He does the easiest thing. His arms and chest are Weak and scrawny. As contrasted with these his legs are strong. It is easier for him to run than to climb a rope, so he keeps on running. His legs get stronger, but his chest remains flat and unpleasant to look at. If he spent his time for a year or so developing his body by all- round exercise on the apparatus, he Would be much more vigorous. graceful and capable, than if he had spent all his time practicing one hundred yard dashes. He would be better prepared for later specialization in athletics. There would be less danger to his heart, the organ that is often injured in schoolboy athletics. It is a notorious fact that high school stars in running amount to little when they go to college. They have hurt their hearts by premature strains. The symmetrical, well-developed and skilful body that one gets from all-round exercise is worth more in adult lite than the more possession of a pair of legs once fast enough to run a hundred yards in ten seconds.

SHOP WURK l iw N shop work the boy is taught the use V The first term work consists of a course in joinery, the following joints being made: middle half lap, half lap mitre, half lap dovetail, slip, through mortise and tenon, haunched blind mortise and tenon, haunched blind double mortise and tenon, and a draw dovetail joint. Upon completion of these he is able to make application to some piece of furniture. A knowledge of the method of holding and the manipulation of the va- rious tools has been acquired. No hap- hazard, slovenly, or careless work is allowed. The second term work is a course in cabi- I net making. The following articles are made: glove box, inlaid checker board, hand mirror, stool, taboret. A great deal of interest is shown in the making of these articles, especially the checker board, and many very good pieces of work are turned out. Qther articles are also being made in the shop now: chairs plate rack, cellaret, medicine cabinet, piano bench, tool case, inlaid handkerchief box, A etc. ln the latter part of this term the . speed lathe is used. A course in wood turning is mapped out for the fourth term. Exercises embracing various uses of the turning tools are given and the following articles made: mallet, napkin ring, box with cover tray, inlaid indian clubs. Samples of most of these may be seen in case on the hrst floor. There being only two wood turning lathes in the shop, not all are able to work at once. ln the fifth and sixth terms the following patterns are made: bushing, gear blank, quarter turn pipe, eccentric and built-up belt pulley. Instruction is given as to al- lowances such as shrinkage, draft, and finish, and the process of moulding and casting. I-I. W. A. ' J ' ' ' H 37 At Work in the Shop S' X 1 glhg Wi MUSIC l UR Musical Department has broad- i ened out considerably since the last Annual was published, owing to an addition of the teaching force and changes for the enrichment of the course. At the beginning of the term, an assistant to Mr. Zeiner, Mr. George C. F lint, was added to the department, but shortly afterwards was transferred to Boys, High School. Mr. William B. Goate took his place. The in- creasing number of students at the main school and annex made the music sections so large that it was practically impossible for s the individual student to receive any atten- tion. The number of classes in a section have now been reduced generally to two and in a few cases three, so that it is possible to devote some attention to the progress of the individual, and thus make the course more effective. The course of study has been improved by a judicious selection of the work best calculated to obtain the desired results in sight reading and part singing, and all non-essentials have been take out. The aim of the music course given at Commercial in class work and auditorium during the regular school hours, has always been to afford the student such training as will enable him to read a simple voice part at sight. Plenty of practice in part singing is also afforded the students and much of the singing at assemblies consists of part songs unaccompanied. This aim has been attained quite generally and many of our young men have so profited by the instruction as to find positions, usually volunteer, but in some cases paid, in various churches in the city. During the present term the regular course has been further enriched by a course of lectures on the appreciation of music, delivered by Mr. Zeiner before the entire school at assemblies held each month. The course for this year is Folk Music, the history of which is being traced from the music of the savage through successive stages up to our American folk songs. This course takes the form of short lectures and analyses of representative musical selections of different periods, followed by a carefully executed rendition of the same by the school orchestra. ln addition to this, whenever time permits, other selections played at assemblies are analyzed and an appropriate atmosphere is created for the proper appre- ciation and understanding of each selection. The value of this addition to 39 F 4 'I the course is appa l 1 rent from the intenie est displayed by the student body. The Commercial High School course has been extended to four Years' and the lengthening of the music course to the full f ears instead of two Years as here' our y tofore, will enable us to make our IIIUSIC ientg it will make department still more eflic possible, work which could not be at- tempted under former conditions. lVlusic l b ' now rated as a study necessary to e is passed, and the effect of this is very notice- l able.

Unly a few of the many appl1CaI1'CS for the OIC eetfa could be accepted. Several of the disappointed violinists have taken up the ' ' ' - ' ' ' d h chestra as they viola, which is akin to the violin, and are being adde to t e or become proficient. up The maintenance of our organizations such as t on a high plane, is a matter of considerable difficulty owing to the changes he Band and Orchestra always taking place. Each term sees the loss of some competent player through graduation, and frequently it is hard to replace those who leave. i i ' Q Q sl L Often it becomes necessary to teach some young men instrument.. .u 1 as viola, 'cello, double bass, and various other instruments seldom played by amateurs. All this work has to be done after school hours, when the various rehearsals of themusical organizations must also be held. Rarely is there any absence from these rehearsals, and then only such as it is impossible to avoid.

Cn that day new officers were elected and the revised constitution became effective. Under the old constitution the student representatives were elected by the officers of all the classes, but the present constitution throws the voting open to all students holding G. Q. tickets. At the first popular election of G. 0. officers, the candidates for president were Crawford and f-lewittg for vice-president, Aronson and Niarcusg and for secretary, Di Pretoro and Goodwin. For a week the school was canvassed, the supporters of the different candidates doing their best to get their men in office. Then, on December 14th, the election took place amid general excitement. Crawford won with little opposition in the contest for the presi- dencyg Marcus was elected vice-president by a majority of only four votesg and Goodwin, by a fair majority, defeated Di Pretoro, for the office of secretary.

But when the first quarter ended with the score nothing to nothing, our hopes were raised high only to be dashed to the ground in the third quarter, when Poly went over the line for a touchdown. Thisrwas the result of a forward pass which put the ball within striking distance. After that there was no scoring and the first game ended. With five green men in the line it could hardly be expected to win against Poly's star veterans. All those who saw the game have no apology to make for Commercial. The boys did their best, and but for a stroke of luck, would have held the heavier team to a Zero score. The 5h0WiUg WC made surpassed all expectations. Wye out-kicked Poly. l-lughes was a far better field general than DuTremby. Their backs could gain nothing through our defense. The victory was a stroke of luck. but as any player will tell you, Hltls all in the game. I Flushing Game, October 7, 1911-Score, 38-0 . As if to redeem themselves our boys managed to pile up 38 polms against the weak but plucky Flushing team. Our bucks hm, ,hlmmh mm defense ffff Z0 of 30'YHYCl gains every time. while their otleiise ixeiit to smash against our improved and efhcient line. Great was tlie reioieiiig when students and alumni realized that at last Commercial really had a team, all i Flushed with the success of their first real victory in two years, the boys thoroughly enjoyed themselves on the long ride home. Each member of the team was cheered repeatedly, songs were sung as only a victorious crowd can sing them, and for the next few days, there were eleven perpetual grins in the school. Manual Game, October 12, 1911-Score, 5-O Before the game, few outsiders were bold enough to prophesy a vic- tory for Commercial, but our rooters were confident of a good showing and the players hopeful. It was, however, a surprise to all parties when our boys humbled the confident Manual team by a score of 5--0. As this was our first P. S. A. L. game, considerable interest was worked up. We had not beaten Manual since 1907, consequently the victory was all the more noteworthy. The game was a good one and hotly contested. Manual could not gain through our defense and neither could we pierce theirs for consistent gains. The excellent punting of Unley and Hughes was an important item in our defense. The touchdown was made in the third quarter and was the result of a fumble made by Manual in attempting a forward pass. Lucke and Wellerson fell on the ball on Manual's 2-yard line, and on the next play l-lughes took it over for the single tally. After that we merely killed time by returning allof Manual's punts. Erasmus Game, October 21, 1911-Score, 5-O On a field slippery with mud and water, our team faced its old friend Erasmus, whom it had never defeated before in football. Cn account of the pouring rain, few rooters turned out. This, however, did not keep the players from doing their best. They put up a remarkable game in spite of the soggy field. Un a perfectly executed forward' pass from Hughes, McCrane went over the line for the only score. After that Commercial's goal was never threatened, for the playing through- doubtthe , - ' d beyond a ' ss territory. This game Prove , out was In Erasmu A ' h' s our first victory efficiency of our de over Erasmus. - Adelphi Game, October 28, 1911-Score, 2-3 Pride goeth before a fall. This Old Proverb was asain proved true by our defeat at the hands of our supposedly weaker rivals. . h s lendid We went confidently on the field and met a team Wh1C was a p machine, working together to the last detail. Qur boys were OVCf'C0H6dCUt and when they made the .first tally by a safety, they thought more would fense, and will go down in lstory a follow. It was Driggs' phenomenal punting which really won, and he deseiiives h d t eir t f the credit as he also kicked the field goal. Our boys s owe mos o , y real ability too late. If it had not been for penalties, we would undoubtedly have scored before time was up. DeWitt Clinton Game, November 7, 1911-Score, 0-0 Election day saw us facing our only Manhattan opponent. They outweighed us by a good many pounds and put up a slashing line of football. The teams battled savagely for nearly an hour, but neither was able to score. Both goals were in danger several times, but owing to the splendid defensive work of each team there were no tallies. Our fellows were rushing DeWitt rapidly down the field when time was called. N. Y. M. A. Game, November 18, 1911-Score, 18-0 This was probably the most agreeable day of the season. The team and a number of rooters journeyed all the way to Cornwall to play New York Military Academy. f It was rather an interesting contest, the most spectacular part of which was Qnley's 60-yard run for a touchdown. We made two touchdowns in the first ten minutes of play and were on their two-yard line when time was calledl The best part of the day was the trip up and back. The management had secured a private car both ways and we stopped off at Vifyest Point in the afternoon and saw them defeat Colgate. The Academy treated us like PYIHCCSS they gave us a hearty meal after the game. and showed its exert' courtesy. ' Boys' High Game, November 26, 1911-Score. 0-6 b Of alldthe games of the year this was one we most desired lo win.

Hughes made a 55-yard run, but was stopped by Tiffany. Then we got on their 8-yard line on second down. Crawford gained four yards and then Hughes tried to get through, and was thrown for a five-yard loss, which gave them the ball. The defeat was a bitter disappointment, but Boys' fully deserved the victory, as they outgeneraled us and put up a splendid defense. Brooklyn Prep. Game, November 30, 1911-Score, 19-O As a fitting wind-up our boys easily trounced the Prep. boys on Thanks- giving Day by the score of I9 to 0. Forward passes were our strong point and we made six out of eleven good. Onley had several long runs up his sleeve and scored a touchdown at the end of one. He also made another touchdown on a line buck. Adams made the other touchdown on a forward pass. The other score was a safety made by Dutemple after a long punt made by Qnley. Review of the Football Season This season can be considered as one of the most successful in the history of the school. ln the first place we made more money for the Ci. 0. ln the second place, nobody was injured, and in the third place, we defeated among others, Manual and Erasmus and have nothing to be ashamed of in any of our defeats. We scored 87 points to I5 for our opponents. This is a higher record than that of any other team in Brooklyn. Qnley was put on the all-scholastic, and Hughes, Dutemple and Anderson, received honorable mention. So we may well say that this was a most successful year for Commercial. On December l9th, the boys who had earned a CH during the season elected a captain for next season. Their choice was Dutemple, who played a star game at left end. C.

Chas. Pike is manager, and Chas. I-I. Piebes is captaing both are doing good work. Mr. Carey, of the physical training department, is the faculty coach. Mondays and Wednesdays are the regular days for track practise. The track team was entered in ten scholastic meets and scored a total of 94 points. This is a very creditable showing for a school having a three- year course. The following boys were point winners: Engels, Horton, E.. Trefry, Smith, G.

The Athletic Association has disbanded and its work is now done either by the Council or by the General Organization. 55 soccER I OCCER football is gaining every year enthusiastic supp0rtCrS fl'0II1l h s cleaner, the ranks of the rugby football players, because t e game 1 ig IS more easily understood and because lt affords more open play and skill on the part of the players. For several years Commercial has had from three hundred to four hundred stuclents playing this game in the inter-class series. But, in spite of this, Commercial was not represented this year in the P. S. A. L. tournament. Early in the school term a call for candidates was issued and about twenty-five boys answered. A team was quickly formed, and practice began. The first game with Townsend Harris, champions of New York, was lost by a score of 3 to O, two of which were disputed. After this game interest in the team waned and some of the team were forced to quit on account of injuries. H 1 A About three or four weeks later all that remained of the team met in Mr. Conant's room and held an election. White was ,elected captain, and Toaspern, manager. The next day the latter announced a game for the following Saturday with the Central Y. M. C. A. second team. Although outweighed twenty pounds to a man, our team played a good game and when the smoke cleared away the Scarlet and Gray was victorious by 5 goals to 2. The next contest, which was with Erasmus l-lall, resulted in a tie, although we outplayed our opponents in every part of the game. Next came the clash with Manual Training High School. This contest was one of the best of the season. However, the better team won, and Manual was declared Champion of Brooklyn by a score of 2 to 0. Commercial, being crippled by the loss of her two half-backs, was obliged not only to shift most of her players, but also to play the first half with only ten men on the field. ln spite of these disadvantages our boys played a good game, Although the boys had a bad start and are consequently under a disad- vantage, the outlook at the present is very bright. Several more games ire to be played, and the team will do its best to bring glory to Commercial, SQUAD B ' ' ' . ' s- ,- onawitz, Fabrlcant, Serramoglla, BIOXNH, Kahn.

A, ...V bfi INTERSCHOLASTIC DEBATING I l 1 , O l Debating Team I-IE semi-final debate of the Greater New York lnterscholastic Debat- llleggltlle betweenhllilianual Training High School and Commercial lg c oo , was e on the evening of March l0, 191 l, in the Manual auditorium. Qur opponents were victorious. The winning team consisted of Philip F. Cook, William R. Bagger, Duncan Campbell, captaing and Herman A. Linde, alternate. Commercial was represented by Russel Nolan, Qakely Morey, Van Velsor Smith, captaing and Arthur B. Tuttle, alternate. The question was: Resolved, that the Sherman Anti-Trust law should be repealed. The affirmative side was upheld by Commercial. The judges: Mr. R. W. France, Mr. F. W. Memmott, and Mr. C. H. Douglass, decided, two to one, without consultation, in favor of the negative. For the third time have we debated with Boys, High, and for the third time have we defeated our opponents. The debate took place in our audito- rium on December I5, I9I l. The question was: Resolved, that the adoption of the Recall of State and Municipal Officials, other than Judges, by a Majority Vote, would be advantageous for New York State. Commercial supported the affirmative. Our team consisted of Arthur B. Tuttle, Louis Samalman, Manheim Rosenzweig, captain, and Charles B. Franklin, alternate. Boys' High was represented by Herbert Wichelms, captain, Louis Samuels, and Henry Epstein. The judges were: Mr. Everett Barnes, Principal of P. S. 235 Mr. Joseph V. Witherbee, Principal of P. S. 106, and Dr. Walter S. Knowlson, of Erasums Hall. The affirmative advocated the adoption of the Recall on the ground that it was a move in the direction of giving the people more power, and that this should be done just as fast as such democratic changes could be shown to 57 be consistent with sane, efficient government. - This line of argiumelglt was hardly . ' 0- touched by the negative. The Commercial team also outc asse t elr OPP nents in the ease and effectiveness of their debating style. Manheim Rosenzweig, the captain of our team, was With0Ut doubt, the best speaker of the evening. His excellent refutation did muchoto secure the unanimous decision, and since this was his first attempt at interscholastic debating, he is entitled to warm praise. R- C- H- ,l.l- 1- THE FRANKLIN-HAMILTON DEBATE I-IE Fifth Annual Debate between the Franklin and the Hamilton literary societies was held on June 23, l9I l. The Franklin Team consisted of N ehrbas, Freeman, and Smith, captain, the Hamilton, of Hewitt, Rosenzweig, and Nolan, captain. The question, Resolved, that the fifteenth amendment should be repealed, was thoroughly discussed. The affirmative was upheld by the Franklin team, and the negative, by the Hamilton. The Hamiltonians excelled in the presentation, but Van Smith, by his excellent refutation, won the debate for the Pranklins. The judges: Messrs. Raynor, chairman, Peacock, and Dann, decided, two to one, in favor of the affirmative. R. C. H. PRIZE SPEAKING CONTEST I-IE sixth annual prize speaking contest was held at a general assembly on .lune.l6, l9ll. The speakers were: Aronson, Rosenzweig, ' Rubenstein, Wecht, Hunter and Hewitt.

It consists of the cast that presents the school play each year. The last farce acted CREKFXZE was Sarahs Young lVlan.,' Kreitman was Sarah,,' and Taylor was her beau It was one of the best ever staged in our auditorium at an annual entertainment. This year Mr. McNally was aided by Mr. Zeiner in the selection of a playg they decided on a musical farce in two acts, entitled, Hstate Secrets, or the Tailor of Tamworthf, Two of the best soprano singers in school, Brush and Terry, are contesting for the part of Lettly, who sings a pathetic solo. Terry is also endeavoring to prove that he is better than Berkowitz in the capacity of Maud. There has been no competition, however, in decid- ing which fellow shall fill the male parts, for Mr. McNally knows exactly what material is available. The one question which the promoters of this play are asking each other is, Will the music be appreciated? We, the students, are certain that it will be, and assure the directors that their efforts will not be in vain. The members of the society are: Taylor, a graduate, Westbe1'g, Hunter, Hewitt, Brush, Terry, Berkowitz, Martella, Meyer, Pride, and Ifevy. Whatever excellence there may be in the acting from year to year, is due to the training of Mr. McNally, our coach and instructor in elocution. .4 CAST R. C. I-I. 59 i Louis W.

ZEINER, Dire-clor C12 Q iifiliif ffif I-IE Chess Club is conceded to be one of the essential school activities, for it makes possible the chess team. Then, too, the game is a brain- developer because of the various and intricate moves. Chess requires patience, gray mattern and power of concentration. Frequently a game lasts more than an hour, and each move must be studied as a general studies the maneuvers of an enemy. I Commercial's chess team has been unfortunate of late, but the members show a spirit which will win them success sooner or later. The loss of several matches was due, after all, to the shortness of the course, for by the time a boy has developedskill he is ready to graduate. The extended curriculum will turn the tide. ' Mr. Hoffman is in charge of this organization, and has been its head for years. He teaches those who wish to join but who do not know the game. The ,club is for bright boys who want to learn a dignified game requiring intelligence.

When the A ' services of a professional model cannot be secured, a student poses for the club. Instead of working exclusively in pencil, the members handle colored crayons, charcoal, and water-colors. When a professional model is sketched, the work is usually made in pencil, the students usually pose in costume, and then the sketches are made with colored crayons. Last spring the members sketched the following students: on April 5th, Albert Winkle1', in the costume of a farmer's boy, barefooted, and in overalls and a broad- brimmed hat: on lVlaylOth, Westberg, in a colonial costumeg on May 17th, Hausberg, as a choir boy, a week later Turgen posed as a sailor. ' The members of the club, together with some of The Ledger board, spent an unusually profitable day at the Metropolitan Museum of Arts and Sciences, on June Sth. For the majority of the fellows, the paintings were entirely new, and this added to their enjoyment. All took their lunches along, and under the efficient leadership of lVlr. Reser, passed from room to room, admiring the portraits and paintings. An exhibit of the work done by the members of the Sketch Club during the past year was held in the latter part of the spring term. Invitations were extended to every pupil in the school, and the exhibition was well attended. , N The work during the fall term has been confinedmainly to the study of the correct method of using water-colors. The members found out that there was a great deal more skill required than they had ever realized. Excellent copies have, however, been made of water-color studies made by eminent painters, and charcoal work has also lately been taken up.

These members are, however, brimful of enthusiasm, and spend many busy hours in the Camera Club shop. The fall term is spent chiefly in photo- graphing the different rooms, clubs, etc. During the spring term Mr. Flint instructs the boys in the art of taking pictures. Their efforts have bettered the grade of photographs in The Annual and in The Ledger, and thus have saved large sums of money thatotherwise would have gone to outside photographers. Withotit such assistance as that givenfby the Camera Club The Annual and The Ledger would have to omit a large portion of the photographs that both contain. ' The officers of the spring term were: Thayer, presidentg Whitmore, secretary, and Swan, curator. In the fall the following served: Thayer, Whitmoi'e, and Sisskind. if T L. S.

Interesting talks are given both by instructors and students on various mathematical subjects. such as graphs, cube root, mathematics in business, etc. The officers of the club are: Meigs, president, lVlcQuade, vice-presideiitt and Rothstein, secretary.

It was organized to secure for its members special opportunity to take fast dictation. During the regular course such dictation is apt to discourage and so the best students are held back. class who have the slower part of the class, o raduate one need pass a test of only one hundred words per minute but T g , 1 1 9 members of this club take a test of one hundred andtwenty words a minute. S ful members are given a written certificate from the faculty adviser, uccess Mr. E. A. Bolger. The club offers opportunity also in literary dictation. This, being far more difficult than ordinary business dictation, affords excellent 4 0 B ractice for our amateur stenographers. Finally, this club enables those oys P - . . eighteen years of age who desire to enter the Federal, State, or Municipal service, to pass a civil service examination. Former pupils who -followed this ' ' ' ' -' ' 900 S1400 er branch of activity are now receiving salaries ranging from Tp to rp annum. D 0 The rowing membership of this club shows its popularity. Un the Whole, thegclub has had a very successful year, and under Mr. Bolger's guidance, its continued prosperity is assured. C. S. W- it 69 GERMAN CLUB I-IE more enduring friendships are said to be those formed during school years, or better, during the adolescent period of life. One of the advantages of membership in the German Club is the formation of friendships with students of high schools in Germany, through correspondence. In spite of a wide range of activities, which includes discussions of occurrences of the day, the life history of a great man, and the best German rendition of some involved sentence, the most fascinating portion of the work of the club is this international correspondence. Generally two letters are writtengat one time, one in German, the other in Englishg thelforeign student returns the German letter corrected, while our member corrects his correspondent,s English attempt. The correspondence of some of our members has become interest- ingly intimate. Another idea of the club is the rendition of German plays, work on one play being already under way. Several Well-known men, interested in German affairs, have, in most interesting talks to the members, given their interpretations of German life and German ideals. I The club was organized by Mr. A. L. Hoffman to enable all students to advance their knowledge of German along lines above the limitations of a school curriculum. Though formed less thanxa year ago, it enjoys a good degree of popularityg it has an average attendance of twenty-five members at its regular meetings on Friday afternoons. The German periodicals read in the club so far are Aus Nah und Fern and Die Runclschau Zlveier Welten. A. L. H.

'.T'.-.. 3 . r 't r ' ' s s li.-51 lvl' WX BOOK R00 ffm' I-IE Book-Room Club, one of the most active of school organizations, was formed to facilitate the care of the various text-books. ln the members' hands rest the charge of all the books, numbering over thirty- one thousand, and conservatively valued at over Sl0,500. The members of this club have arranged a program whereby they are divided into five divisions, each of which is in charge a day each week. It is the duty of that set to exchange all books without delay, fill all orders from the various class rooms and see that the books are not misused or disfigured. No school in the city takes better care of its books than does Commercial, and the members of this club contribute by doing their work carefully, faithfully and earnestly. It is the duty of the members to see that all books are properly assorted and placed on the shelves in the three book-rooms. The Book-Room Club has numbered all the books used in our institution and intends counting all the available books soon. ' V I ' The club is a continuous organization, new material always being avail- able. At present the club is composed of eleven members and a faculty adviser. lVlr. R. P. Bliss, faculty adviserg R.

HE Pedestrian Club is a little over a year old, its first meeting having i 0 been held November 26 1910 The members of the club have from i the first been very enthusiastic, and it is to be regretted that the mem- bership is limited, as a great many more candidates turned out at the first meeting than the club could possibly contain. The chief object of the club is to make its members acquainted with the delights and advantages to be derived from walking. lVlr. Fleischer, the originator of the idea, is an able pedestrian, and the fellows find him an agreeable companion. He is to be complimented on the success' of his scheme. . t The first walk was to New Rochelle, November 26, 1910, and while there, the first ofhcers of the club were elected. Un February l I, 191 l, the club walked from Commercial to F ar Rockaway, a jaunt which the members greatly enjoyed. Un April lst, a walk was taken from Jamaica to Port Washington, and on the tenth of that month, to Nyack, N. Y., a distance of twenty-five miles. Later in the spring term, the Camera Club joined the Walking Club for a walk to Eagle Rock, situated in the heart of the Orange Mountains. The ofhcers of the club for the fall term were elected Cctober lst, on the hrst walk of the term, to view the aeroplane meet at Nassau Boulevard. Two weeks later the members walked to Tenafly, a distance of about ten miles. Qctober 28th found the club on a aunt to a town near Stamford, Connecticut. On this occasion many of the members secured some very excellent photo- graphs, while on other walks they played baseball with other teams on the route. The oflicers of the past term are: Schmidt, presidentg Dopple, vice- presidentig Carroll, secretaryg Schmitz, marshal. The club will be inactive during the winter months, but will become active again as soon as the weather permits, in the spring. Several of the more enthusiastic members of the club, however, will take walks in company with the Natural History Club. S.

Literary Society is still the largest, most active, and most p0W6YfUl of the school societies. Under the guidance of Mr. Bagenstose the society wields a marked influence in the school. Every one respects it. It is the ambitionof the younger ones to join it, and the regret of many of the seniors that they have not joined it. To be a Hamiltonian is in itself a recom- mendation for any post of honor in the school. - ' What does the Hamilton Literary Society have to offer the boy who joins it? In the first place it stimulates an ,interest in good literature and in effective public speaking. It, gives the boy an opportunity to exercise himself along the lines in which he is most interested. As a member or chairman of committees he acquires valuable experience: If he shows exceptional ability, a larger field of opportunity, and one of great value to him in his after school life, will be opened to him in the various offices of the society. He acquires ability to speak, he learns parliamentary law, and has a good time with it all. The l-lamiltonians arena democratic lot 'of fellowsg they are not snobs. The society's doors are open to all decent fellows who have the proper qualifi- cations. The candidate must have a good character and a reasonable degree of literary ability. Why is it that the Hamilton is so widely represented in the activities of the school? It is not merely the prestige of being a Hamil- tonian that counts, but it is primarily the training and experience received in the society's work. The past year has seen a variety of activities. Perhaps the most interesting event was the Annual Dinner. Thiswas by far the most successful the society has yet had. For the first time the boys brought their ubest girls, who added much to the enjoyment of the evening. The orchestra, the farce, and the toasts were all well received. A baseball nine in the spring afforded a lot of fun and brought some honors to the society. The one ,disappointment of the year was the loss of the annual debate with the Franklins. But as the l-lamiltons have beaten in three successive debates they can afford the loss of one. Watch the score in l9l 2. Not the least enjoyable events of the year were the initiations, the popularity of which was demonstrated by full attendances. A recent initiation saw fourteen new members taken in. and places set for thirty-six at the subsequent spread in the teachers' lunch room. l-lamiltonians have been president of the General Organization. president 78 -:QQ of the Senior Class for two successive terms, president of the Spanish Club, manager of the football, of the tennis and of the basketball teams, chairman of the Creneral Crganization Appropriation Committee, editor-in-chief and associate editor of The Annual, and captain of the school debating team. Among other distinctions may be mentionedg first, third and fifth places in the Prize Speaking Contest, representatives in the lnterscholastic Decla- mation Contest, two positions on the regular football team, and two on the scrub, one member of the baseball team, member of the Committee of Control, members on the interscholastic debating team, several members in the caste of the school play, two nominees for the presidency of the General Organiza- tion and one for vice-presidency, members of The Ledger board and authors of numerous contributions to school publications.

This 1s.due mainly to the fact that it has t always recognized the truth that a literary society must be more than merely an extragperiod of Englishg that it must have fraternal and social features to hold the interest of its members, and above all, select its men with careful regard both to their ability and their congeniality. For this reason the membership is limited in order to build up a club of friends as Well as of ability. To further this spirit of brotherhood an annual dinner is held where active and alumni members meet and have a general good time. The fourth annual dinner was held last year at the Elks' Club, with a party of thirty present. There were speeches by Mr. Campbell, then teacher in charge, and Mr. Stock, a faculty member, as well as from A. W. Miller, E. O. Curtis, O. Smith, Ci. Bowden and D. H. Millard. Herman Toaspern acted as toastmaster. Looking over the history of school activities for the past year, one cannot help noticing the striking predominance of the Franklin Literary Society . . V . 461 fm in literary lines. Since it is aliterary. and debating society, one expects tv find a large part of the school debating talent in this club, nor IS one disap- pointed. In the interscholastic debate team of last year the Fra11kllI1S ha-Cl three out of the four available places, the captain, 0. Smith, yO. Morey, and A. B. Tuttle, alternate. In the Metz Cup debates we find the F ranklins represented by Morey, Gourlay, Tuttle, Auwell, Nehrbas, Hall, Toye, and Freeman, the latter being captain of the team which won the coveted Metz Cup last June. And in the extemporaneous debate last year, four of the six contestants were from the Franklin Club and Morey was awarded first prize. The Civics Club challenged the Franklin Club to a debate on the ques- tion that society should be organized on the basis of Socialism. The F ranklins won the decision. Then came the great annual event in the inter-society rivalry, the debate between the Franklin and the Hamilton societies. The subject for the debate, in June, was the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment. The Franklin Society, represented by a 'team comprising O. Smith, Geo. N ehrbas, Frank Freeman and Chas. I-leuschkel, alternate, defeated the other society by a vote of 2 to I, and thus brought to a climax a most successful year of debating. i ln addition to debating, its members have been prominent in various other directions. ln the field of formal public speaking the Franklin Club has been hardly less distinguished. The second prize in the school declama- tion contest was won by William l-lunter, who also represented Commercial in the G. N. Y. I. D. L. declamation contest, where he likewise won second prize. l-lunter was the first Commercial man to win a prize in several years. The honor of representing the school in the first lnterscholastic Declamation Contest, held under the auspices of the Columbia University, went to Morey. The Franklin Literary Society has also contributed to the strength of The Ledger staff in the person of A. B.

Most of the immense throng which had booked passage on her were aboard, and were either busy in their cabins, or leaning over the rail, observing the crowd assembled on the dock to see the huge liner sail. Among those at the rail Was a tall, dignified looking man, easily recognized as of German birth, and beside him a woman, young, pretty, and evidently' of the same nationality. They were casually taking note 'of the people around them, and once in a while, they would glance furtively in the direction of the gang-plank and scrutinize every person coming aboard. Standing by a steamer-chair a short distance away, was a mang middle- aged, rather tall in stature, and Well dressed. He pretended to be looking at the various scenes of activity going on around himg but in reality, he was quietly observing the actions of the couple leaning over the rail. His name was John Wilkes, of the United States Secret Service. The day before, he had been sent for by the Secretary of War, and after being closeted with that high official for about an hour and a half, he had hurried by fast train, from Washington' to New York, and had taken passage on the 0lympic. As to his mission, we can gather an idea from the parting advice he received with his instructions: Now remember, Wilkes, these papers which contain the location of the mines in New York Harbor, are of immense value. Get hold of them as quickly as possible, as their contents have been sought for by every country in Europe. A So here he was, with the suspected persons before him. In the meantime, the signal had been given, and the great ship was cast free from her moorings and Was' nosed out into the stream by four tugs. The voyage had begun. l The couple meanwhile had withdrawn, not, however, without being observed by Wilkes, who secured both the numbers and the location of their rooms. He then retired to his own cabin, and after locking the door, threw himself into his berth and fell to thinking of some plan by which the papers could be recovered. He knew that they must be in one of two places, either on the person of the man or that of his companion. As the couple well knew the value of the information contained in the papers, they would take no chances by leaving them in their cabins, or in any other place where they might be accidentally discovered. Still Wilkes thought it best to be sure, and resolved, therefore, that he would search the cabins as carefully as possible, at He waited his opportunity. 'Prize Story by George Price, of Room 418. CSee note, page 35.5 His chance came on the third day out. Having noticed that the couple had gone on deck, he went to the stewardess, and having .toldhhcg Shot Van Dusen Che had obtained the name from the passenger llstl a 01'1'0WC his razor, he succeeded in getting her to open the doors of the cabins. Cnce inside, he made a thorough and sy thus proved that his first conjecture was true. He found the couple on deck, leaning over the rail, engaged in conver- sation. Strolling over in their direction, he stationed himself nearby, where he could observe their movements without exciting suspicion, and made careful note of the way their clothes fitted them. Those of the man fitted perfectly. They were of the latest English cut, and a trifle tight, so that Wilkes saw readily that he was not yet in possession of a clue. He turned his attention to stematic search. He discovered nothing, and the gentleman's companion. There was, however, nothing ,suspicious in her appearance, but Wilkes concluded that she had the papers concealed somewhere about her person, possibly in the long coat thrown over her arm. If he could only get hold of it for a minute, he could easily find out, but the way in which she kept it in her possession, told him that for the present this was impossible. He saw that he would be likely to get it, only through momentary forgetfulness on her part. He waited his opportunity. The next' day he found the couple in the same place on deck, and again the woman had the coat on her arm, although the weather did not at all warrant the wearing of such an article. Wilkes now felt so sure that the coat had some connection with the papers, that when he overheard the woman suggest to her companion, that she would like to go to the drawing-room to write a note, he darted down a side stairway and was seemingly deeply engrossed in a magazine by the time the couple entered the room. They took no notice of his presence, and the young woman, laying her coat on a lounge walked over to the writing table, followed by her companion. This was the very chance that Wilkes was waiting for. Getting up, he noiselessly crossed the room and laying his hand on the coat, he felt a package. Had he found the papers? He pulled the coat partly away, and then discovered that the package indeed contained papers, but that they were blank. It was quite evident that the couple were alive to the fact that they were being watched. Wilkes, ,though badly disappointed, was convinced that the persons that he was dealing with, were clever enough not to be caught napping. He had returned to his seat by this time, as noiselessly as he had left it, and was greatly relieved when a minute later, the couple left the room. Lav- ing his magazine on a nearby table, he began to collect his thoughts, and to 82 srft the matter down to its present standing Thrs done he trred to think of some place where the papers might possrbly be hrdden Hrs one theory had gone wrong and to tell the truth he was ashamed of himself He went up on deck to enjoy the ocean arr and agarn drscox ered the couple rn exactly the same positron and place as before Then light began to dawn upon hrm Was rt possrble that they had hidden the papers on deck near where they were standrng3 He resolved to get up early the next morn rng and search that part of the deck Accordingly he arose brrght and early and began hrs search F or some minutes he rummaged rn varn around corls of rope and other thrnffs H began to thrnk hrs efforts were frurtless and was on the point of 'walking away when hrs attentron was attracted to some finger marks rn the dust on the boards back of the tool box which was used rn connection xx 1th the derrrck for rarsrng and lowering the cargo rnto the hold He fell to hrs knees and eagerly pulled away some cotton waste so that he could better examine these finger marks As he drd so he saw that rt covered a hole betxx een the back of the box and the boards Putting hrs hand rn he drew forth a blue box partly covered wrth a prece of canvas In an rnstant he had taken off the cam as and opened the box There lay the papers tied with a red ribbon just as the Secretary had described them He put the cotton waste back rnto rts former place and after arranging -thrngs just as he had found them serzed the box and hurried to his cabin , Ar last hrs mrssron was performed Putting the papers rnto an inner pocket he sought the wrreless room and sent the following S 5 Olympic Secretary of War A Washington D C , Everything O K Wrllges Then hrs usual good sprrrts returned and he spent the remainder' of the day rn a Joyful state of mind ' ' Late that nrght the steward handed hrm a wireless message He tore rt open and read ' c6WGSl1llIgfOl1, D C ML fohn Wilkes, ' HS.

Arista is a league among the high schools of the city, which corres- ponds somew hat to the Phi Beta Kappa among the colleges Unlike the Phi Beta Kappa, eligibility for membership consists not merely in having maintained a high average in scholarship, but in having served the school as well. The Arista consists of two bodies, one, the Senate, composed of selected members of the faculty, and the Assembly, or the lower branch, whose members are students. Last spring the heads of the several departments met and chose the following teachers to constitute the Senate: Mr. Bolger. lxtilll Carey, Mr. Clark, lVlr. Dann, Mr. Doggett, lVlr. Gruenberg, lVlr. Harrison. lVlr. Hoffman, lVlr. Hook, lVlr. Flint, Kip, lVlr. lVlarvin, lxflr. Ravnor, lVlr. St. John, lVlr. Shearer, lVlr. Stock, lVlr. Taylor, lVlr. Teeter. lXflr. Trask. Van Name, and lVlr. Zeiner. This list has since remained unchanged. but the membership in the Assembly is increased from term to term. At the Thanksgiving Assembly, when twenty-six candidates received pins, and were admitted by the principal to the Arista, the membership was thereby increased to its present number, seventy. The Assembly met on December 6th, and elected Claude Perez secre- Fifi l tary' and treasurerg they also selected two members as candidates for the leadership and vice-leadership. The Senate then chose Leslie Baker as leader and Arthur Schmidt as vice-leader. The question has been asked: What is the Arista for? What does it do? This is the answer: Dr. Fairley has devised a plan whereby mutual aid will be given to the principal and to the Arista members. Each member is to be on duty in the office, to serve as general office assistant, for a half-hour every two weeks. This provides trustworthy assistants and is far from bur- densome to the fellows. It gives them practice in prompt obedience to ordersg it offers practical experience in office work and it brings the students into closer contact with the principal. The plan is only one of several that Dr. Fairley has in mind. ' The members of the Arista remain such even after graduation, and may participate in any of the functions given by the joint Aristas of the city. , Members of the Arista Altholz, Avery, Garnier, Ciraue, Grosfeld, Horton, Johnson, Jonas, Rider, Rosewarin, Tittle, Von Damm, Wilhelm, Birzel, Blumberg, Bunce, Byrnes, Groth, Haas, Isaacson, Kaplowitz, Nebel, Singer, Slutsky, Torn- berg, Witkowsky, Wolfson, Gitlin, Greenhall, Heilbrunn, Lapp, Lewis, Leibowitz, Lamanna, Margiotta, Meigs, Perez, Pfizenmayer, Baker, Har- rington, McQuade, Samalman.

The grade adviser of the 'W 't Senior Class makes it his business to keep constantly in touch with business firms who employ young men. Each term, several hundred letters are sent to as many business firms informing them of the fact that another class is about to graduate from Commercial, and calling their attention to boys in the class who are best qualified for various lines of work. As a result of the school,s efforts along these lines, no well-qualified graduate of the Commercial High School has to wait long for a positiong in fact, for a large number, positions are waiting when they graduate. The school is fully aware of its duty to the business public as well as to its pupils, and consistently refuses to recommend any pupil whose school record shows any trace of dishonesty, bad habits, unmanly conduct, or lack of earnest effort to do his work. While. the school recognizes that its first obligation in finding employment for its pupils is to those who complete the course, it also gladly helps scores of boys to find work who are compelled to leave school before graduating. This does not mean that the boy who is too lazy to study can drop out of school and have a job handed to him. The school has absolutely nothing for the boy who will leave his education for any such reason. It is, however, the school's disposition and privilege to be of very great help to every one of its worthy pupils just at that beginning point in business life when a little guidance in finding right employment is most vital. G. R. 1 x NV 04380 M? H SENIOR CLASS .f OW varied are the emotions with which the members of the Class of February, l9lZ, will regard their graduation. To all, no doubt, will come a certain pang, a feeling of sorrow and regret on leaving, perhaps for ever, the dear old building. . Here have they toiled and playedg here have they had sorrows and joys, and here have they met with reverses and successes. Some, a very few, perhaps, will breathe a sigh of relief, and eagerly turn over I the next page in the history of their lives. At any rate, the Class of February, 'IZ, will have completed three long years, and a righteous satisfaction IS theirs. In February, l909, the class numbered three times the meager one hundred that now remain. Some have fallen by the waysideg others have sought success in the business world, but the proud and happy ones have kept at their tasks and now confidently face the future. Mighty are they in the school, the envy and pattern of every Hfreshiegn 'and yet how humble and insignificant in the vast unknown world beyond! It is fitting to mention here several of the most prominent of the class. First of all comes Crawford, the president of the class. His untiring zeal i r i 4 . has helped the school to produce a good football team, and a worthy Annual. l-lewitt and Nolan have represented the school more than once in debating and prize speaking. Heilbrunn, Marcus, and Steiger have con- tributed to the success of The Ledger. Meigs is known as Commercial's Willie Sidisf' Matthews is admired by the girls on account of his football ' prowess. The captain of the basketball team, Techter, must not be forgotten, f for on him rests our hope of winning the championship. lsner is our Hcrack i 4 l milergn Bailey, our midget shortstop, and German scholar. .l Many others there are who need not remain H to fame unknown, for are not their names recorded imperishably on the pages of their respective class rooms? Let us all join hands in wishing a well-deserved success to the February Class of l9l2. L. S. B. 92 -swam J 1. V- ,pA.ag.,5 11 Nxxxx Q w X CQSX, nw: ,fa --..

He would devote every minute to his work, resolved to leave something by which the World should remember him. ln somewhat the same spirit, the Editors of The Annual have been devoting much of their time to their editorial duties, determined that the 1912 Year Book shall deserve a place beside those which have gone before. Whether this has been accomplished or not, this Year Book is largely the product of the students who compose the Board. Board of Editors ln more ways than one The Annual of 1912 is different from any other of recent years. While the outside activities have not been forgotten, emphasis has been placed on the serious side of school Work. This is as it should be. Athletics, for example, are all right in their place, but if too much importance is attached to them, the student is likely to regard them as an end, and not as a means to an end. The same is true of the clubs and societies. The editors hope that this book will be of interest to the general public as well as to the student, that it will convince the parents that their boys are not merely having a Hgood timef' but are also accomplishing things. Those who support the school are entitled to know that their money is being Well spent. The 1912 Annual will help the taxpayers to realize that Commercial is thoroughly alive, and through the club or society, as well as the class room, gives its students opportunities to develop along special lines. 04 A word of farewell to the Graduating Class. This class which has struggled upwards over countless obstacles has now reached the summit of its ambition. It is about to be graduated.- What pride, yet what regret, must be theirs, to have accomplished so much, and then to be leaving forever the walls of dear old Commercial. To them and to our other schoolmates, we extend our heartiest good wishes for a happy and successful New Year. , EDITORIAL STAFF . 1 Conrad Crawford, editor-in-chief -Ralston C. Hewitt Leslie S.

It was frequently I discussed at Commercial but until last winter no action was taken. At an early meeting of the June class of 191 l, when it was decided that the class should give Commercial its first Class Day, the project was received with much enthusiasm. Dr. Fairley and members of the faculty gave hearty support, committees were appointed, and the work began. June 27, their evening before graduation, saw the culmination of three months of these efforts. At an early hour the graduates and their friends assembled in the auditorium. After a selection by the orchestra, the president, Daniel Finucane, delivered a short address of welcome. l-le was followed by the 'class historian, Leo Altholz.

I happened to be on a train bound for New York from Chicago. I was alone, and when I had read my paper over a couple of times, I got restless and began eyeing my companions inhthe car. Down.at the far end of the car I spied a man with a black bag whom I instantly recognized as Dr. Cooke. I went over to him and we bgean talking of old days in C. H. S. I asked him if he knew where, any of the fellows were. He replied that he heard from four of them. He happened to be at a countrv town where there was a circus. Charrot was manager, and in trying to show clown how to ride a donkey, he was kicked in the slats. i Hannon was the next, and.he turned out to be a chemist. The doctor told me that he was mixing some acids and they exploded and blew half of his mus- tache off, so that he had to shave the other half to look natural. McTernan had become an actor in the Play, Romeo and Juliet. He was Romeo, and in climbing the ladder to reach Juliet, he slipped and fell. Bowne was the next unfortunate. He was riding in a six-dai' bicycle race i 7 0 c ' ' and ran into a fellow s back tire, and was thrown on his ear. This was all very interesting to me, and we discussed many escapades we had at C. H. S. When we reached New York, I went to a restaurant. XVho should walk in but Martin. He sat down and told me he was a salesman for the IT. S. Steel Co. After our meal he offered me a ticket for a sparring match between t'iJ'lieeie and the championboxer of the day. I gladly accepted the ticket, well remembering O'Keefe when he was fifteen years old, at C. IPI. S. That night I prepared to go to the boxing match. I hailed a taxicab, and who do you suppose was driving but Toye, the former football player of the Parade Grounds. I sat upon the front seat with him and asked him il' iiiei-rf were :any more of our bunch in New York. He told me that tf.J't'niiinn' was a Cun- gressman, and Goldberg had a fashionable,tailor shop on llroadway. l..aucr had become a History Professor at Yale, Simpson a Minister in a country town. Wick, he wasn't sure about, but thought he went to teach in some college, he was such a smart guy at Commercial. Wfinkler, he said. was head barber in a prosperous shop. Well, I arrived at the club-house, and as I was going in, a ticket spcculator came up to me to sell a ticket. I looked at him, and was about to turn away when I heard that familiar call, Hello, I-Iargief' I' turned around and found it was Newberger selling tickets. E Over in thenewspaper box I saw Bettex with his Sten.-book, a reporter. I suppose, next to him was Newton taking sketches of the lighters. The match 'did not begin right away, so I began looking at the baseball scores. I saw that Stern had been released by Pittsburg for 552.600, to catch for the Giants. lilleser. who keeps track of Stern, was coaching from the musicians' box. when he received a foul tip on his right optic which put him out of business for the day. VVhen the match was over, I started to hike for the nearest fountain to get a drink. The name on the Iirst one I struck was familiar. I went in and there I saw McManus, who was the proprietor. I then went into the back room and beheld Maguire, Dooley, Smith and lilrenuan. all drilling as a quartette for a moving picture show, Lutjens acting as conductor. After leaving them. I went back to the hotel to get some sleep, which I needed very badly. , I I LEsT1zR I'I.-XRGERT. Editor. ' Many thanks to McTernan for his valuable suggestions. H 125' 'wg . li Castcrlinc, E.

Carey-Gymnasium ECHOES FROM 221 Of all the boys beneath the sun The boys of rank are in 2-2-1 To prove the truth of what is said, The following verse must here be read. There's Garcia strong of football fame Who came across from sunny Spaing Concannon next, a peaceful lad, Bears quiet step and features sad. There's Ogren, who is called quite bright, ls claimed to study day and night. Sukoff is Spanish thro and thro, And without jest can Spanish chew. But the artist of our far famed class, ls Berkowitz, who has the brass To hand in drawings made to look Quite like the pictures from some book. Lester keeps the cash on hand, And drives our whole united band To purchase Ledgers every time They're put on sale for one small dime. Little Sharkey is quite a pest He wanders 'round and gives no rest To those of us who try in vain To study hard and make a name. McDonald is a quiet lad, He claims he's good, we say he's bad, But Riskkind's voice remains the same Drowning the 'phones at football games. Cannon drives the whole class mad When booming loud at every lad But on a recitation day He seldom knows just what to say. Feldstein's voice is the worst of all A fog-horn's cry is considered small When competition tries to Claim A victory for the latter's fame. There's Williamson the marshal tall Who marches boldly through the hall And tries to hold his class in line. Keep on old boy, you're doing fine. Hackmeyer chirps from his place of rest But his voice is thin when from his nest He is asked to tell of the subject lore About the work he's had before. Auerbacher is a sporty kid Who puffs his curls and tips his lid And tries to claim he is the stuff Unlike our old friend. Nleyerhoff. The latter mauls us boys about Like some great giant tall and stout, While Woodward sings the whole day long And all the boys despise his song. Grolimund has a charming face And adorns himself with frills and lace While Carey's face though not real bad Resembles Eickhoff's-a homely lad.

A few volleys were fired on each side, our ship retreating after Capt. Gross had killed two of our men with twenty-five rules each. Our journey continued' pleasantly until we ran upon the Nlelvin Reefs in the Sea of lVlat'h. The force of the contact -was so great that a few of our men were knocked overboard. Q ' Rescuing the luckless ones, we sailed hastily to the Ocean of Ink, inhabited by a genial monster called Scarborough. By much muscular move- ment we were enabled to escape into the Gulf of Gym. The days here were very enjoyable, but we were in continual danger of the Reefs of Dance Step. Thinking our dangers over, we became care- less and were nearly wrecked on the R-ocks of Biology. A strong current of Interest bore us away, however, and took us to the Bay of Mothertongue. In this bay we met many friends in the ships Grammar, Literature and Composition. q ' While in the'Bay of Mothertongue Captain Kyle gave his position to Captain Sawyer, an able and experienced man, under whose guidance we hope to reach our desired haven.

ROOM 124 CLASS HISTORY 4 The newly-formed ,class stood quaking in the large assembly room, shrinking back as a stern-faced teacher tramped down the aisle. But, their minds were relieved when they were marched in single file to the comfortable- looking classroom' number IZ4. The remainder of that eventful morning was spent in the interesting process of receiving books. All were soon made aware of noontime, not only by information from the interior, but also by the sudden departure of the teacher at the sound of a bell which we have all learned to welcome. His command to depart likewise was -obeyed promptly. The class soon became accustomed to its new surroundings and settled down to work. The results of the second third, just completed, show a record to be proud of., Fifteen of the class have no' deficiencies in any subjects and eleven others are below passing in only one subject. Benjamin Brown represents the class on the School Honor Roll with the fine average of 82. Because of these achievements, Dr. Fairley awarded the class the distinction of being Color guards and also commended the members in assembly for their good work. Mr. McNally further announced that Room l24 had won the honors in elocution. T The success of the class is due to the working out of a rule which causes those who fail in a subject to gain a passing mark by work done after school in the study classes. i All, even those who have had to attend the extra periods on five days in every week, are thankful for this rule when they think of thelresults it has enabled them to get. To conclude, Room l24 has resolved to maintain the standards now set and we hope to move forward Waldman, William, president as a body in February. j RAYMOND ELLIS, I-Iistorzan JOHN LOUGHRAN, Teacher FIRST HONOR ROLL Gallagher, Vincent ' Goldman, William Landolt, Beno Leonard, Harold Nlatschke, Griffith Andersen, Harold Bushman, Arthur Brown, Benjamin Ellis, Raymond Farley, Francis SECOND HONOR ROLL Del Nlonte, Harold Diemer, Anthony Hitschler, Carl Tappe, Paul Lang, 'lfobias 'Wolf, George OFFICERS Ellis, Raymond-vice-president Del Monte, Harold, marshal 166 Middleton, Russell Stubenvall, Harry VonPellenburg, Arthur Waldman, William Wilhack, Fred.
