BAER, who is always praising the works and efforts of others and never mentioning self, do we owe much of the harmony of our school life. He is our big brother who tries in the best way to guide us and co-operate with us, never forgetting that he was a high school lad not so long ago. When he recognizes our faults, he tries in his friendly way to put us on the right path. By his constant interest in high school welfare, earnest loyalty to causes-insistence on scholarly ideals, and kindly sympathy, he has won the friendship and admirat ion of every one of us.

The first of our boys to give his “last full measure of devotion” was Howard Gass, an exemplary young man with high ideals and a noble character. Then came the sad word that another had fallen, Jewell Whyte, truly a hero in all respects. Again the bell tolled—this time for James Hemphill, (an all round man, take him for all in all). Another grave in the poppy fields of France bears the inscription—Hazlett Hahne. How we have wished that that such a one as he might have carried the banner on and on without end. Another sad message came to us telling us that Bennie Henderson would never return. A bright youth, he, and full of youth’s bright prospects. Once again came the word that God had willed another of our companions should rest in Flander’s Field. The fact that Joseph Webb fell with his face toward the enemy reveals his inherent character. Last, but far from least in our circle of gold stars is one that stands for Noel Akers. While he was on his way to offer his all for his country and people, his candle of life burned to the end. And now that it has all happened by the will of God, let us cherish the thought that they have gone to Him as good, true men, remembering that it is honorable to die in arms. But I've a rendezvous with Death On some scarred slope of battled hill. When Spring comes round again this year And the first meadow flowers appear. Page Eighteen Jiamt Patrick’s pa r A year ago today I was just starting to know what war really was, but the passing of three hundred and sixty-five days taught me all the rules and regulations and, believe me, I was an apt student in the ducking line—consequently I am among the living. This day is one of Battery A’s historical ones for Frank Hickman and Austin Schumacher were wounded a year ago. A week ago yesterday (Sunday) we played a band concert for the Colonel, but were through at 3:30—so the boys (Dick Walsh, Nitty Lewis and Ford Dwiggins) had a horse waiting for me and this quartet departed at full speed across the mountains for Dernan to have a visit with the Marner’s and we sure were given a glorious welcome,—first time we had been there since we left that town and it was a big reception. “Dad” Marner brought out his best wine. “Mother” Marner’s waffles never tasted better and Katie had had her picture taken and was right there with it in her hand to give to me—believe me Katie is a mighty pretty girl, so we returned home with our appetites and thirst thoroughly satisfied. Saturday we went up to Bad Nenenahr to get a complete new outfit and while there Elmo Ellis, Ferris Jones and I left and spent the remainder of the day about this town. We visited the hospital and saw “Babe” Brown, Foley, Bill Govan, Thomas Kissans and Albert Schomacher. When we came downstairs to go out the guard halted us and said we couldn’t get out. We were quite anxious to know the reason why and he replied—“ that patients were not allowed out after o’clock.” I gave him the laugh and asked him if I looked like a sick man and he said “Yes”, and I had a devil of a time convincing him it was only homesickness and that I wasn’t a patient and finally got out. We had a splendid day beginning with' a swell dinner—theatre in the afternoon and evening—and dances with the Red Cross Nurses and Y. W. C. A. girls in the afternoon after the show. Bad Nenenahr is the 42nd Division one day leave area,—something going on all the time and you have a ticket with sevfcn stubs which takes you every place. Nearly all the boys are either going or coming in on passes from three to fourteen days. It sure is one grand life to go back into France for two weeks and eat all the eggs and ham you want,—sure thought I was a General while I was enjoying my trip. Dick Walsh and Tom Mosher left for England—bet they have a hot time. Page Nineteen Mosher is Irish and I suspect Walsh is too—so know there will be another big day for history when they reach Ireland, for they’ll probably make a killing. Suppose I’ll have to knock a German down today for Walsh, as last St. Patrick’s day Dick was knocked down a stairway by a German shell—so he said and he promised himself that this St. Patrick’s day it would be his turn to knock a German down and as he’s away and a friend of mine will cause me to fulfill his promise. Yesterday was inspection—and, oh boy, we were all set for it in fine shape— clothes pressed, shoes clean, etc.,—Col. Reilly had been in Paris for some days getting affairs fixed up—the band had been enlarged to 100 pieces and we arose at 8 o’clock—breakfast at 8:15 and left here in motor trucks at 9 o’clock. About 1 o’clock we were assembled on the banks of a river which is noted for its Watch. The four Infantry regiments on the right, then the Engineers, then Artillery, of which the 149th is a ramous part, the Ammunition Train, Medical and Hospital Corps and the Mobile Ordnance. The men to be decorated were in a single line in the center of the Division in front (and Battery A had her share of these honors and we sure are proud of the boys). The platform was constructed on the side of a small hill from which you could overlook the whole division. The Band was stationed next to the platform—I was in the third row and had a fine view of all the manoeuvre. Gen. Pershing first inspected the kitchens, then came to the Review Grounds, where he mounted a horse and rode around the Division—coming to a halt, he dismounted and made an inspection on foot—during which time the regimental band played. After the dismounted inspection was finished he returned to the reviewing stand and the men to be decorated stepped forward and halted before this famous General—the band played “The Star-Spangled Banner’’—regimental standards were dipped—then Pershing decorated the men and regimental colors of various regiments tor valor—courage and except’onal bravery. After this the regiments passed in review—then assembled in a mass where Pershing made a talk to the enlisted officers and men. It was a grand sight and one I shall never forget. The Band is now represented by four Battery A boys—Paul Clark, Harry Scharlan, Russell Young and myself and I’m not lonesome for company. You know this band is benefited by our rare ability, Ha! Ha! Ask Kendall Hooten, for I used to worry him around about 6 a. m. once upon a time. We are to have our overseas shots today, then get coobzed and have all our clothing dipped. The big noise today is—we will be ready to sail by April 1st. Well anyway I’ll try to see you by May 1st. Big Swede. Page Twenty O ur of tr Half a millenium ago no one had ever thought that man could fly as well as a bird. Even if one of the noted scientists had proposed such a machine, the populace of the universe would have committed him to an insane asylum. But coming to the twentieth century where genius works undistuibed, the great Wright Brothers’ bird of the air was flown. The Wrights were condemned by everyone, but they worked on until their machine was perfected to a safe degree. The aeroplane was used very little for half a score of years, but those that were crafty and brave enough astounded the world by the marvelous loop-the-loops, nose dives, and other hazardous manoeuvres. The value and the seivice of the aeroplane was never realized until the German autocrat set the world aflame and bathed the land in blood. His great falcons of the air swooped down on defenseless towns, to kill the flower of humanity. The eyes of the Allies opened quickly, but their air forces were not up to standard. After three years of fighting across the water Uncle Sam was forced into the fray. He developed a great air force as well as a superb army and navy. Every factory available for this kind of manufacturing was ordered to help build the great squadron of the air. Millions were spent in building training fields and aeroplanes, but what did this amount to when the future of our country wras at stake. With the help of our allied experts, we built those much needed planes and trained thousands of our young men in the art of flying and battling with the Huns. Our planes and men were superior to the Huns, because in one month the American Flying Corps brought down one hundred and ninety seven planes officially recorded. The great Liberty motor that spelled freedom when it was mounted in a plane has become the greatest motor for service. So we must thank the experts and mechanics of our aeroplane corporations for their unceasing toil to outwit the Hun. Thomas Hanson. Page Twenty-one Crtter from IHesrh m France Dernau, February 27, 1919. Dear Folks: It seems to be doubly hard for me to write now that the war is over and I can’t account for the reason either. Certainly it isn’t because I haven’t time, 1 ecause I do hardly anything at all. For the last three days I have been out ever}- day to the range where the battalion has been firing. It is interesting enough too, because now that the war is over these hard heads are going back to the old American methods of firing which aren’t a bit effective considering the scientific study of artillery worked out by the French and which we are only now discarding. You really cannot realize how the French have perfected the study of employment and effect of light and heavy field pieces. Of course the American methods of fire are absolutely new to me, as well as to the officers of the battalion, so you see I am not so badly off because all I learned at Laumur is fresh in my mind and I can grasp things a bit more quickly than those who haven’t had anything new for a year or so. I fired a problem today and had as targets what we judged to be a clump of bushes or a pile of manure. I did succeed in landing a tew in the thing and later found out that it was a pile of satabaga. I’ll wager that farmer won’t need to chop up the teed for the cattle for several weeks. I have hardly any work to do around here. I don’t stand any guard or inspection let alone get up for reveille. I do lots of riding on horseback, going to and from the range daily, a total distance of seme 20 kilometers. This constant loafing combined with the really good meals we are getting three times per day and the extra waffles and jam and coffee cake fed us by the people where we stay are making me fat. I almost have a double chin and have almost as much trouble climbing stairs as Emma Claussen. Did Fred C------------- get taken in by the draft or was the war good to him too? I suppose you have located the region occupied by the American Army of Occupation haven’t you ? If so you will have seen Dernau on the Ahr river. The “dorf,” as the people call the town, is small but pleasant. The people live by means of their vineyards built on terraces rising up the side of the mountains. You will no doubt, be astonished to find that people are considered wealthy who own the two or three acres of vineyards they cultivate. But that is true. However, Dernau is too small for the Battalion of Artillery stationed here, so this afternoon after range was over we went to Gclsdorf, a town about fifteen kilometers away, and arranged for billets. We move Sunday. I have not had any mail from Otto lately. I believe he is somewhere up in the zone of occupation, but I do not know for cei tain. Don’t won}- about the kid now, he is right at home in this country. 0. K. With love, E. Lesch, Ed. Sgt., F. A., U. S. A. Page Twenty-two JVmrtfyer letter from lesd} Gelsdorf, Germany, March 3, 1919. Dear Folks: We have changed homes once more and are new “hoch auf dem Beig” in a town some ten kilometers away fiem Deinau. It seems as though there was not room enough at Dernau for the battalion, so we changed—“A” and “B” moving here and “C” to Eckendorf, a few kilometers away. One way it was hard to move because we had gotten to know the people real well and were beginning to feel veiy much at home. Especially where we stayed and at another family, where Dwig stayed before I came, were we well treated. We couldn’t go to see this last family without their baking waffles and let me say that Katie, who was chief cook, was some artist when it came to a point of handling the waffle iion. The morning we moved they made sandwiches for us to take with us, making us promise to come back to visit them. Of course, you realize my vocabulary is of great value to me here and although I make frequent mistakes, yet I manage to convey a meaning and that is enough. We have a pretty nice place here too, living with an old widower, his two daughters and son, aged 19, 16, 14 respectively. Christine, the younger daughter, gees to school at Bonn, not far from here but lying within English limits. We, here, are only three kilometers from the English line, but do not fraternize very much. For a conquered people these Germans take things very calmly, philosophically admitting that Germany was in the wrong, and very, very thankful that we were sent to occupy this portion in place of English or French, whom they still hate cordially. I cannot account for the cmnity between French and Germans. I really feel that it is due, in a great measure to the press and ruling parties of both nations. They (the papers and politicians) are always warning and prophesying evil, mutually accusing one another of jealousy and greed. There is one universal feeling however, and that is hatred for England, who, they feel, has robbed them of a place in the sun. I have heard several people say that they are very glad Wilson came to Versailles because otherwise things would be sure to go hard with their country. There is more or less of a food scarcity, of course, but here in the smaller towns food is plentiful and there is no actual want except in the line of soaps, coffee and tea and shoes. Sugar (beet) is plentiful and easily bought for 45 pfennig a pound. Wheat flour may be had too, but the usual bread is baked from dark flour, tasting leal good. Crops last year were excellent and the people even feed large, clean potatoes to the cattle. They raise only thorobred Holsteins here and I wish you could see them. They really speak w'ell for the farmers. I had a letter from Otto today and he is still in the S. O. S. He seems well and getting along fine. The Madelien Christine just came in and we looked at a bunch of pictures from Bonn and the Rhine. This all ended up with an argument on “Who Won The War?” I am sending you a picture of Bonn, which she gave me. Lovingly, Ed. Page Twenty-three w A.

And that standard has been kept, for at no time has the class acted in a manner of which it need be ashamed. All great men have their biographers; all great nations have their historians. And as the historian of the nation of Seniors in the world of D. H. S., I shall recount the varied experiences of the class. As Freshmen we showed unusual promise in all lines. We were on the honor rolls; we acted before the Athedarians; we debated before the Wrarglers; we played basketball and football; we were entered in the field meets. Nor were these activities confined to our freshman year, but all during high school we continued them and at last became efficient along all lines. And at last as we come to graduation; our parting is one of mingled joy and regret. We rejoice in the fact that we are about to face the world; but we regret that we must break those associations that form so large a part of high school life. Some of us will be in college; some in the business world; some in the services of our country. But may we all, wherever we may be, hold dear our memories of D. H. S., the best of all schools, and of the Class of Double Nineteen. TOM MCLEAN.

Our Freshman year was successful, although not as much so as our Sophomore and Junior years. Early in the fall of 1918, the following officers were elected: President, Joe King; Vice-President, Nina Faris; Secretary, Houston Clinch; Treasurer, Vernon Brown; Historian, Don Schoolcraft; Chairman Social Committee, Francis McIntyre; Chairman Pin Committee, Inez Acton; Adviser, Miss Story. Among the social events of the year was a “Hard Times Party” which was held at the home of Virginia Arter, on the eve of December 13. An enjoyable evening was spent with games, contests, and music.

We were turned from raw mateiial into the finished product of the best class. We were well icpresented in every branch of athletics Holding this years basket-ball and football captaincy and the same for next years’ football and basketball teams: Williamson, President of Sophomore Class, Hannum, Thompson, Freeman, P. Smith, Dice, VanAllen, were all basket-ball men. Hannum, Williamson, K. Smith, Dice, Shields, were Sophs on foot-ball team. We were very fortunate at the first of the season to secure the services of Miss Hansen as our advisor. We suffered a great loss however when she left us. We gave a farewell party for her on the eve of her departure, at which time we showed her the high esteem in which she was held by all of us. As a student body our class ranks high in the eyes of the faculty. By hard work and perseverance we hope to rise above our fellow pupils in scholarship and all other branches of school life in the near future; so here’s to the good of the class of ’21. G. D.

H. S. student. Many were the contributing factors to this success. The support of the school has been good; the ability and willingness of the teams has been remarkable; but, greater and stronger than these, we think, has been the undying enthusiasm, the staunch loyalty, and the unrivaled ability as a coach of high school athletics of Mr. Wakeley. The primary duty of a coach, as the public thinks, is to mould winning teams. Surely then Mr. Wakely has succeeded, for our football squad did not know the meaning of the word lose and our basket-ball team “copped off” two-thirds of the games played besides winning the county tournament. But the achievements of our coach do not stop here. He has accomplished far more than simply producing winning material. More prominent in his mind than the actual winning of a game is the winning or losing of it with true sportsmanship; and he has so instilled this idea into the minds of Danville players that the school not only has a reputation for winning games, but one for clean fair play, regardless of the score. Another accomplishment has been realized by Mr. Wakeley—the players of D. H. S. fight tor their school. The man, who does not deserve the name of man is he who works only for his letter and for his own tame. This type cannot be found in Danville High. Of the efforts and loyalty of our coach we need say nothing, for the results he has gained and the height of success he has attained speak for themselves. As Holmes says, “character is portrayed through conversation,” so may we recognize the traits of a man in the words of our coach which are often heard by the players immediately before the games: “Now get in and fight. Keep going from one whistle to the other. Fight all the time and fight hard. Don’t play dirty but go hard. When you can’t go any more let someone in who can go. Everybody up and at ’em, now; and remember you’re fighting for Danville High.” R. Burk. Page Sixty JVtljIettcs President—Lloyd Knowles. Vice-President—Lowell Goulding. Secretary-Treasurer—Wood Woolsey. Business Manager—Houston Clinch. Assistant Business Manager—Gordon Telling. Cheer Leaders—Walter Dye, George Johnson. DESPITE the unusual difficulties athletics have encountered, the year 1918-19 has been one of the most successful Danville High School has experienced for some time. War conditions and the “flu” epidemic were the formidable obstacles encountered by athletics in general throughout the country. Of course, D. H. S. suffered with the rest. Besides this, we received what appeared to be almost a fatal set back by the eight semester ruling which was put into effect last year. This eliminated at one sweep nearly all of the foot-ball “D” men and all but one of the letter winners of the basket-ball squad. The football season commenced with a team made up largely of light and inexperienced material. Not many pessimists are found in D. H. S., but most of us thought the outlook was gloomy. Nevertheless in the three games “old man influenza” allowed played we conquered Mattoon, swamped Longview with ridiculous ease, and played the touted Urbana team to a six to six standstill. It is Page Sixty-one unfortunate that we were unable to demonstrate our football prowess to a larger number of schools. The forecast for the basket-ball team was even more unfavorable than that of the pig-skin chasers. The first few games seemed to confirm the idea that the season would be a failure. The boys soon began to play together, however, and the tide changed abruptly. We won five straight games and then captured the championship at the county tournament, a feat that even the team of all-stars of the previous season was unable to accomplish. Financially the football season was unavoidably unsatisfactory, but the returns netted from basket-ball more than made up for this: Very naturally this question arises, “What were the factors responsible for our teams’ success under such unfavorable conditions?” Primarily they are the following: the coaching, the team spirit, and the school spirit. No one who knows Coach Wakeley and his accomplishments doubts his exceptional ability. Our teams stand out from others; not because of individual stars but because of our snappy, polished team play which,is the direct result of good coaching. As for team spirit, to those who witnessed the county tournament, it was very apparent that we possessed it in quantities. The players showed team-work, and always fought to the last ditch. Incidentally, I might say here that the failure of last year’s quintet at the tournament was largely due to the lack of this essential quality. The school spirit was irreproachable. We have a faculty that favors athletics from A to Z. We are indeed fortunate in having a principal who believes in athletics as he does for such principals are only too rare. Many of our teachers attended the games regularly throughout the season and the student body supported the teams in a splendid manner. Attendance was never better or enthusiasm higher. We should thank the ticket sellers for the energy they displayed. By the way, do you know there are several girls in school who make the boys appear rather microscopic when it comes to disposing of the card-board tags? A great deal of credit is due these girls and every girl who takes an interest in our athletics. Let’s hope they have some teams of their own soon. The school spirit naturally centers upon the Athletic Association. It is conclusive proof that this spirit is at a high point when it is said that the Athletic Association never experienced a more successful or profitable year than that just terminated. The membership was larger than ever before. Two hundred and thirty-eight members turned out at the first meeting to elect officers. Lloyd Knowles was elected president. “ Knowlic” showed that his dominant characteristics are “push” and “go” in the short time that he headed the association . Unfortunately we lost his services when he enlisted in the S. A. T. C. Lowell Goulding was made vice-president. He assumed the presidency when Knowles left and handled it in a very satisfactory and capable manner. Wood Woolsey was elected secretary-treasurer, and to Houston Clinch and Gordon Telling were Page Sixty-two THE FOOTBALL SQUAD 191S given the very necessary jobs of business manager and assistant business manager respectively. George Johnson and Walter Dye handled the cheering. The noise they produced from the gang vouches for their ability. The epidemic upset many of the D. A. A.’s plans this year. Next year promises to be one of unparalleled success and activity. The Athletic Association is a necessity. Upon it falls the responsibility of attending to all details of staging the contests, such as lining the fields for football, putting the basket-ball floor in shape; handling the advertising; writing the reports of games for the papers; ushering, etc. We should be proud of the fact that 1918-19 has produced the best Athletic Association Danville High School has ever had. Financially we are in an excellent shape. Our membership was never approached. Every member is an asset. Let’s work next year for a membership equivalent to the enrollment of boys in school. W. Woolsey. Page Sixty-three JMjti’s pjfycr 3tt football 1918 “Good” Moore—Captain. Played half-back, full, and end, but regular position during 1918 season was at half. Not a heavy man but possessed with lots of fight and a good student of the rules. “Bob” Hannum—Captain-elect. Quarter-back, drop kicker, open field runner, and with both of these a good line plunger. “Bob” made a thirty-yard run through the middle of Mattoon’s line for a touchdown. “Fat” Olson—Along with Moore the only “D” man around which to build the 1918 team. He improved much during two years’ playing and displayed unusual “pep,” especially in last two games of the season. Played guard and tackle. “Bill” Collignon—Guard and center. D. R. man from 1917. Never brilliant but always steady and reliable. Lovell Goulding—Half-back. Also D. R. man from preceding season. Fast on his feet and a good open field runner. Raleigh Burk—Full-back and tackle. Hardest hitter and fighter on the whole squad. D. R. ot 1917. Spoiled most of Urbana’s line plays. “Doc” Williamson—Tackle. New man and light, but a hard fighter. “Newt” Shields—Guard. Also new. Dependable. Showed up well in the Mattoon game. Joe King—Center. Had some previous experience but never played center before. Absorbed that part of the game rapidly. “Tubby” Freeland—Utility, but good, especially as a backfield man. First year out for the team. “Bud” Smith—Full. Injured ankle early in season but got in the later games. Picked up the game rapidly Wilpur Dice—New in school. Some experience. Played end. Harland Hilton—End. Frightened himself “nigh unto death” by catching one ot the opponents forward passes in the Urbana game. Almost got loose. “D. R.” Men. Hanson—Utility guard. Hard, consistent worker. Solid as a stone wall. McLean—Utility quarter. First year out. Faithful. Johnson—Utility half and end. Light but “game.” Freimeyek—Utility line man. Came out late in the season due to work interfering. Page Sixty-four football A MERICAN spirit and determination which predominated throughout the war, prevailed in D. H. S. during the football season of 1918. For eight months there had been a rumor that no football would be played in our High School because of war conditions. But two days after school resumed many a young pigskin follower was greatly relieved, for Mr. Baer, our principal, announced that although there would be many handicaps, football would be maintained as long as possible. It was unanimously felt that the gridiron developed the boys physically besides creating and putting into the school-life an unlimited and indispensable amount of “pep.” When a first meeting was called, about fifty candidates assembled, among whom were Moore and Olson, the only eligible “retreat” or “die.” After three weeks of falling on the ball, running back punts, and tackling, and sprinting, they were prepared for a tough season. JSrbmta dame Playing a steady, hard fighting game, and always holding tight in the pinches, Danville turned her “inevitable defeat” into an even break. On October 5, Urbana invaded Danville fully expecting to wallop us for her men were heavier and more experienced than our own. The game started with a rush, Urbana registering a touch down in the first three minutes of play, which put the word determination deep into the hearts of the men in Maroon. After the first score the ball was see-sawed for two quarters, both teams punting at opportune times. In the third quarter Danville came back with renewed energy and high ambition. At this time, Hilton intercepted a pass and ran thirty yards. On three plays Danville failed to gain and Hannum drop kicked, which was carried wide by the wind. The ball went to Urbana, who failed to gain and punted. Burk made five yards off tackle. A pass, Hannum to Moore, netted five more. On two plays Burk made ten yards. Three more made first down and Hannum went over for touchdown, tying the score. From this time until the whistle blew a battle royal was staged with both goals often in danger. Hannum and Burk made gains through out the game. Spiers saved the day by falling on the ball behind Danville’s goal line.

It has been rumored that the reason our boys had no mercy on their opponents was because of the five weeks enforced vacation cast upon them by the prevalence of the flu.” Hannum, Smith, and Goulding shared honors, each making two touchdowns. tEljattksgi mg Ciamc IN a terrific wind on Thanksgiving Day, Danville won her second one-point victory over Mattoon in two years. Our foe came here fully prepared to exact revenge for the game the year before, but was fully surprised and staggered to see our men show up so strong the first half. During this period Hannum ran forty yards for a touchdown, and Gculding grabbed an outside kick, which resulted in a similar score This made things look easy for Danville, but in the fourth quarter Mattoon hit the earth” and spurted across with a safety and touchdown, which left the score 12 to 11 in favor of Danville when the whistle blew.

OUR basket-ball season may be considered a most successful one. Starting in right after Thanksgiving, our team practised faithfully until the end of the season. The prospects for a winning team were not nearly so bright as the preceding year, for there were no “D” men to use as a nucleus, and very few prospects who were considered “comers.” Our first team was composed of seven men, who deserve much credit for their diligent and faithful practise. But there is also the coach and second team to be commended, for we all know that in order to be out to practise everv night a man must deprive himself of much of his valuable time. This. Coach Wakeley did. Page Sixty-nine He was not just out, but he had ideas and play. He studied the game, and always worked hard to convert his “rookies” into seasoned veterans. Next we should appreciate our second team who came out and scrimmaged with the first. The season started with a deficit as the cancelling of most of the football games and the bad weather did not give us a financial chance during the fall. Our “Southern Opponents,” Georgetown, gave us a boost early in the season. During the playing session our team went through the entire schedule, winning six games and losing three. It can truthfully be said that two of these were lost because of the playing space. If a basket-ball season is to be considered from a financial point of view and from the number of games won and lost, we can feel that last season was very successful. Our “green material” was turned from a so-called losing team into the county “champs.” Let us give our heartiest wishes for a successful team next year, and sincerely hope that they again will adopt the slogan, “never say die.” LONGVIEW GAME Januar r 10, “Swede” Anderson and his Longview team visited Danville and, sorry' to say, took away the bacon. But it was not without a “battle royal” and the final whistle stopped the game with a score of 29-26. GEORGETOWN GAME On January 17, the Maroon White ventured into “No Man’s Land” and were defeated by the Georgetown team. “ Never say die ” was bravely exhibited. We make no excuses—but you know that floor if you’ve ever been there. CATLIN GAME Danville’s spirit and enthusiasm was aroused to a high pitch when our “gang” beat Catlin. Accompanied by plenty of rooters, spirit, and fight, but inferior to our fellows in team work, we made the little village easily fall before our royal five. Many substitutes were played in this game, and when the whistle blew the score stood 41 to 12 in favor of Danville. Thompson and Williamson starred, making 30 of the 41 points. HOMER GAME On January 31, D. H. S. journeyed to Homer for her fourth game. This contest was played in a second “box” rather than on a basket-ball floor, for it was small with walls along the side lines and radiators beneath the baskets. We overcame many of these handicaps, but held the short end of a 15 to 8 score. Page Seventy LONGVIEW GAME On February 7th, Danville defeated Longview 18 to 11. Our boys left their home with determination in their hearts, for they went to seek redressf or the first Longview game. Fighting to the finish, they pulled ahead and stayed so until halted by the shrill cry of the whistle. HOMER GAME “Pepped up” by a preliminary game between the Y. M. C. A. independents and an all-star team, D. H. S. whipped Homer by a score of 30 to 16. In the first half both teams fought furiously and the score was 9 to 9. Homer seemed to outplay our boys for a short time,but over-confidence gained supremacy. Our “gang” came back strong, played their opponents off their feet, and ended the game with a good majority in their favor. Hannum, the “find,” threw seven field goals. GEORGETOWN GAME February 21st is to be set down as an historical date in D. H. S. On that evening our “Southerh Foe” sent over two gallant teams. In the first game, the Midgets silenced one bunch, trimming them 23 to 18. Next, before a huge crowd, the regulars “took the bacon” for us in an exciting contest. The great factors in urging our boys on were the former defeats on Georgetown’s floor or “undersize box car.” But, thanks to these old remembrances, for the “Southern City” was taken into camp to the tune of 22 to 15. This fact helped increase the attendance at our later games. OAKWOOD GAME Danville stored away her fourth consecutive victory at Oakwood. What seemed to be a certain victory for us was turned into a close game in the end. By slow degrees we ran the score up to 11 to 2 in the first half, but in the next session our rivals had better luck and went one point ahead of us. Captain Thompson saved the day by throwing two baskets from the side of the floor, which made the game end 19 to 16 in favor of the Maroon. OAKWOOD AT DANVILLE On account of the county tournament the game with Oakwood for March 7th was played on March 4th. The first half ended with two points in favor of Danville. In the second half the Maroon and White came back strong and ran up a score of 29-17—a fitting close for a most successful season. Page Seventy-one Wc z (Ummtg '(Eourtrament For the fourth consecutive year, the county tournament was a marked success, both in attendance and spirit shown by the players. Playing championship basket-ball, Danville came out ahead for the second time in four years. She showed what consistent playing and a study of the game will do for a team, by trimming some of her opponents who had beaten her earlier in the season. Our team was the best coached on the floor; her guarding and basket-shooting being conceded superior to any other team entered in the tournament. Much need not be said about the first game. Bismarck was given a “trouncing” of 96 to 1. In the second contest, Sidell played hard but was out-pointed in the third quarter, and when the game ended the score stood 35 to 19. The third “scrap” on the second day was between Danville and Henning, the home team winning 24 to 10. During this time substitutes played, as our “bunch” was never in danger of defeat. The championship battle was fast but cleanly played, Danville outplaying her opponents by 45 to 21. One of the largest crowds ever assembled at the “Y” was present. Freeman was the biggest point-getter of the tournament, making 26 out of 45 in the game. THE CONTESTS.

In 1917 it was decided to discontinue girls’ athletics, for the Washington Auditorium was also used by the Boys’ Athletic Association and they were forced to give it up two nights each week, which meant a great sacrifice. The girls are still with the boys in hoping for our new high school with an up-to-date gymnasium of our own.

We returned to school on the 12th of November, but so many new cases were reported that it was thought advisable to close until December 2nd. JUNIOR RED CROSS On December 12th, Junior Red Cross pledges were taken. In response for the plea for war orphans, we turned over 8109.50 of our Red Cross fund tor the support of three orphans for the following year. GIRLS’ CLUB CHRISTMAS PARTY The Girls’ Student Club has done unusually good work this year. Instead of the usual one hundred guests at the Christmas party, two hundred were entertained this year. The party was held at the Armory on December 24th. During the vacation many of the girls worked faithfully in making scrap books for convalescent soldiers. SOPHOMORE PARTY On January 17th, the Sophomores gave a farewell party for Miss Hanson, their advisor, who was leaving our faculty. The event was in the form of a theatre party. The Sophs enjoyed seeing “Fatty Arbuckle eat spaghetti” and then went to the home of Mary Elizabeth Jenkins to finish the evening. Miss Hanson was presented with a beautiful corsage by the sophomores as a farewell gift. RECEPTION FOR NEW STUDENTS The eighth grade reception was held on January 31st. Class recitations were visited, after which an interesting program was given and some of the school activities were explained to the future freshmen. VALENTINE PARTY On January 31st, the Girls’ Club Valentine party was held. The evening was spent in playing games and performing clever stunts. Refreshments were served to one hundred and fifty girls. SENIOR PARTY The Seniors enjoyed a Fischer Party on February 7th. After the Fischer they went to the Washington Auditorium to finish the evening, where games and contests comprised the entertainment. Refreshments were served. Page Seventy-six Page Seventy-seven I IL lit: i (Bivls Club THE Girls’ Student Club of Danville High School is still doing as much as ever. We can now boast of a membership of about three hundred and seventy-five loyal workers. The meetings this year have been unusually interesting. Besides the patriotic, social, religious, and educational ones, we have had a new kind, called “group” meetings. Every other week the girls meet in certain groups, and at the next general meeting a report is given from each group. We still have a question box, where we may go for valuable information. A mothers’ meeting was held at the Y. W. C. A. and many of the girls’ mothers came to get acquainted and see what we are doing. At the cafeteria, in the basement of the Washington school, during the Teachers’ Institute, about sixty dollars were made. This money was used for the Christmas Party. Two hundred poor children of the city schools were given the opportunity to have a Merry Christmas at the Armory. The Girls’ Club had the Page Setenty-eighl cooperation of other charitable institutions in this undertaking and many children were made happy. We are still keeping a French orphan, and, by the way, we are supporting aboy instead of a little girl, as we had thought. On Monday evening the girls are urged to attend a Bible Class at the Y. W. C. A. We are now starting basket-ball, and everyone is enthusiastic about it. Many girls come out to practice on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. We always have a little fun along with our work, so this year a Valentine party was given at the Washington auditorium. About three hundred and fifty girls were there and each one had a valentine and a pleasant smile. Girls’ Club members are always smiling, and may we continue to do so and always aim to exceed the record of the past. Page Seventy-nine tUlje (i$tarrr0 t attfc Ptyttc NATIONALLY and internationally the past year has been a memorable one. For many reasons it has been so, chief of which are the peace conference, the armistice, and the influenza. That latter was a factor which retarded the progress of the Maroon and White; retarded it to such an extent that one issue was omitted completely, so that only six instead of the usual seven issues have been published. We believe that the issues have been comparatively remarkable in their cosmopolitan and versatile characteristics. In the April issue, however, the entire staff combined its efforts to alleviate the loss felt by the meager six issues. In February, Burk, our editor, left us for the realms of post high-school life, and Burris, his assistant, superintended the other publications, except the one for May, which was edited by the new staff. We have been handicapped also by the fact that the Athletic and Exchange Editors left when Burk did, necessitating new appointments. Collignon, the new Athletic Editor, has done exceptionally well. If we have succeeded, we do not know it. It is not for us to judge. But if we have failed we have no excuses, no apologies to make, for we have exerted ourselves to the utmost, better than that no one can do. But if we have succeeded it is because we have had the almost undivided and unanimous support of the student body, which has contributed to the whole affair—a spirit similar to the one which engendered the motto— Carry On!” Page Eighty W t Exahus THERE is going on around us, What is old, yet ever new; And the fates have so decreed it, But we hate to think it’s true. Twas nearly four or steen years ago, That we entered here “very green.” But it has been too short a time, For the peerless class of nineteen. Out of the chrysalis of Freshmanhood, Into the Sophomore’s realm, We, our course, “straight ahead” did keep With experts at the helm. And then by deeds on platform and field, We a name emblazoned bright; For the Junior Class was the only class That came up on top in a fight. The bold and aggressive Junior Must a Senior wise now be; For the knowledge that he has gathered Quite fills him with ecstasy. But as time approaches for leaving, And we remember the years gone by. Our friendships and quarrels, our love spats and pranks, Are thought of with many a sigh. For now they will all be ended, And as the four winds we’ll be Tossed and blown or parted • Either by land or by sea. But many a time, In a reminiscent dream; Will come some remembrance Of the Class of T9. And as we pass on, as others have done, From buds to full-bloomed flowers; To the classes that are, and those that will be, May success be vours as ’twas ours. C. R., T9. Page Eighty-two tElje BnmQhvs IT is not wise, when a pleasing impression is the desired end, to begin a treatise with an enumeration ot the obstructions which have upheld one’s progress. Nevertheless, in order that one may later deduce the total efficiency of the organization, we offer these remarks, not as apologies, but as statements of pure fact. The Wranglers have been confronted by various difficulties during the year of 1918-19, chief among which has been the enforced “flu” vacations, with the consequent disorder and general lowering of school spirit. In spite of these, however, we have accomplished a few achievements. We have drawn up, ratified, and adopted a new Constitution, embodying a heretofore unemployed system of admittance of members, which is fairer both to members and to candidates for membership. Socially. We are the only school organization which has carried on a connected and correlated course of meetings, both social and business. We alone have held regular meetings for serious work and we have only held functions for the social benefit of our members. We have had regular and planned programmes. We have successfully presented a programme before the assembly, which consisted of a debate and a comic oration given by prominent members. We have, to the best of our ability, propagated and pushed foiward the spirit of our diadictionary reputation, so that future members may say: “The years pass; many come, many go; the Wranglers remain, perpetuated, ad infinitum.” Page Eighty-three H THE MEDLEY TREASURY STAFF Page Eighty-jour Page Eighty-fire Wc t Jbbaintg Yearns Clje Affirmative (Team EACH member of the affirmative team gave ability, loyalty, and work in such a degree that success could not do otherwise than come to them. This was the first participation in interscholastic debating for every member of the team. Their success is highly commendable. Guy Burris has placed himself high in the group who have given Danville a very enviable record in debating. His keenness as well as ease before an audience win their interest and approval. His well-expressed analysis is convincing. These are a few of the many qualities which make him an effective debater and which were in decided evidence on the evening of April the eighteenth. Russell Duffin has not only helped make D. H. S. proud of its team, but he has caused the school to be glad that, as he is a junior, they may look forward to another contribution of his debating ability such as was so splendidly shown in the D.-U. debate. Logical, dependable, and able effectively to meet the various sides of the question he made himself a valuable member of the team. Rufus Cowan, in his participation in the Danville-Urbana contest guaranteed definitely the high regard that D. H. S. shall always hold of his ability as a debater. The vigor and convincing earnestness that he displayed in treating the subject made him very effective and formed an excellent, as well as fitting conclusion for the 1919 debating record. Ruth Sandeson. Page Eighty-six Tcgatifre (Eeam r I 'OM McLEAN this spring closes his third season as a D. H. S. debater—one with Paris, and two with Urbana. His work has been commended for good enunciation and polish. He is an excellent person to open a debate with because of the clean, dispassionate presentation of his points. The work of Francis Rearick is characterized by enthusiasm, energy and confidence. He has had two seasons in debate, both with Urbana, and is looking forward to another next year, when we are sure he will continue to uphold the traditions of the Wranglers. Elmer Olson ranks very high as a debater, because of his ability to think clearly and quickly and to grasp the complexities of a question. He, too, is closing his second season in high school debating, but we shall expect to hear of his winning further laurels in college debate. Miss Hardy. Page Eighty-seven If everything that you have done were known, And if everything that is known were said, And half of the things you think were heard, Could you walk with a high-held head? Think of the things we could tell of you, Then marvel and worship our charity; We could have told awful truths of you, And squashed you flat with celerity. And yet we have held out our little hands And the censor helped us to hold them some; Still, here’s to the things we might have said! My soul! But we could have made things hum. Page Eighty-eight JVtfysfranarts THE aim ot this organization, which consists of a great number of students of the High School, is to promote literary and dramatic activities. It has been the custom for the past years to give a spring play. This year, as well as last year, it was thought best to do away with the necessary expense connected with plays, because of the unnormal conditions existing. Naydean Phillips. Page Ninety JlCautttefr r I 'HE setting was a richly furnished library in an old English manor. Lawrence Allen lay on his back before the fireplace, legs crossed, one foot listlessly swinging in the air, and slowly munched an apple. Across the room from him curled up on the window seat was his sister. There was a look of moodiness and discontent on Barbara Allen’s face as she gazed out across the broad lands of her father’s estates to the ruined tower in the distance. “Honestly, Laurie, you’re the most exasperating person I know!” exclaimed Barbara petulantly. “Here I am home from the seminary for the week end and you don’t even talk to me!” Receiving no response, she sarcastically remarked, “You certainly must like apples.” “ Do,” and Lawrence tossed his apple core into the fire, selected another apple from the pile beside him, and began shining it on his coat sleeve. With an exasperated sigh Barbara turned toward the window and silence again fell in the library. Suddenly Barbara’s face brightened and she bounced off the window seat and danced across the room to her brother. “Gory, Bab! What’s the matter? Got an idea?” laughed Lawrence. “Yes, Mr. Impudence, do you want to hear it?” “ I surely do if it will inspire that much energy in me.” “Well—I don’t know about that; you arc so proverbially lazy, but listen and I’ll tell you—I want to go over and explore the ‘Haunted Tower’!” “Ye Gods and little fish-hooks! what an idea!” “Oh you and your American slang. Since you attended school in America you are almost a Yankee yourself. Nevertheless, I am going to the tower even if you don’t. You may order my horse while I dress,” and Barbara ran out of the room and upstairs. But when, in an attractive riding habit, Barbara came out of the manor a few minutes later, she found her brother already mounted on his own horse and waiting for her. The footman assisted her into her saddle and Barbara and Lawrence turned their horses and rode off down the drive, out of the gate, and in the direction of the “Haunted Tower.” “What are you going to the tower for, Bab? Do you expect to converse with its ghosts?” “Hardly. But I do intend to reveal the secret it has held for so many years.” “Whew-w! Listen to her! My, we’re getting important, Bab. Why men have spent years and years in vain endeavors to disclose the secret and all that ever came of it was a few preposterous ghost stories.” “That doesn’t prevent me from trying, does it?” Page Ninety-one ‘No—not from trying, but seriously, Bab, you don’t believe the story about the old hermit leaving anything in that place, do you?” “Yes.” ‘‘Well, I must say I thought my sister had more common sense than that!” said Lawrence, disgustedly. Giving his horse a cut with the whip, he galloped off, with Barbara close behind him. The ruined tower was soon reached and, tying their horses, they picked their way among the tangled underbrush that surrounded the base of the tower. The heavy oak door had fallen from its hinges and partly obstructed the entrance, Lawrence offered his sister his arm and they entered the main floor of the damp, gloomy structure. The floor was of firmly packed earth and on the stone walk appeared white mould. In one comer was a huge fireplace with rusted iron grating. In the center of the room stood a massive table, nearly all rotted; beside the table was a bench crumbled from age and rot. That was all the furnishing, the rest having been removed or destroyed by former explorers. At the side of the room a winding stairway led to the upper part of the tower. As Barbara made a move toward the stairs, there was heard a peculiar sound as of scurrying feet, yet unnaturally light. Barbara’s eyes became large and frightened and she clutched at Lawrence’s arm. ‘‘So, Miss Explorer is frightened so soon! Nonsense, Bab, it is just the rats.” “Rats here? And what would they live on, ghost cheese?” “Well, perhaps. At any rate it is just as possible as ghosts.” “No doubt, but come, let’s go upstairs.” Holding tight to Lawrence’s hand, Barbara led the way, gingerly mounting the crumbling steps. As they neared the top, the startled pigeons took wing and flew out of the windows. “Oh, it was pigeons before!” exclaimed Barbara in a tone of relief. This upper apartment of the tower had evidently been used as sleeping quarters for the keeper and later by the hermit. In the farthest corner was a crude wooden frame on which was what was left of a straw mattress. The covering had fallen to pieces and the straw showed signs of having been examined and then tumbled back on the frame. The wind had strewn much of it about the room and no doubt the birds had carried a great deal of it away. Looking up, they saw crumbling beams upon which at one time there had probably been a floor, making a third apartment to the tower. “Look, Bab!” exclaimed Lawrence, “that must have been where the prisoners were kept in olden times. See, there are chains and shackles hanging from the walls.” “I wonder how they gained access to it? There are no stairs,” mused Barbara. Page Ninety-two “ By a ladder of some description, I suppose. Probably there was a trap door in the floor.” As they stood glancing upward, a pigeon flew in and lit on the ledge of one of the slits that had served for windows in the prison chamber. Lawrence whistled to see what the bird would do. At the first sound it flew into the tower and lit on one of the iron spikes that held a broken chain to the wall. In so doing, the pigeon dislodged something which had evidently been attached to the spike. With a cry Lawrence caught it from the floor and began examining it. ‘‘It’s parchment, Bab! The real stuff, too.” Nervously, with Barbara impatiently waiting, Lawrence unfolded the parchment. With hearts thumping they surveyed the writing. The markings were in a fine handwriting and the ink had faded to a weak brown color. After a few seconds Barbara and Lawrence looked at each other, disappointment, amazement, and wonder in their faces. ‘‘Wh—what is it?” asked Barbara. “It’s a code of some sort. Whilickers but I wish I could decipher it!” exclaimed Lawrence. Again they looked at the bit of parchment. HI HI Ml III I II III II II I I II III I II ill ill | || || rmu nnnn nnnn-r u i_ i_ l I II I II II III Ml III III || | III I III II icrr nr rmrucnnr “Jove, Bab, I believe I am getting on!” “How? What?” “Well, you see there are numerous characters that are the same.” “Yes.” “Therefore it is the dots that decide the letter.” “Well?” “Then as the dots run no higher than three there are three letters to three characters. From the natural working of a human mind, the alphabet was evidently divided into groups of three letters each.” “Y-yes.” “Then you notice this character,” Lawrence took a pencil and pad from his pocket and marked p( on it. “Yes.” “Well what letter does it look like?” “Why—why like an A!” “To be sure! Then we will say that character with one dot is A. According to arrangement of groups the next letters are B and C. So J [ is B and pj is C.” Lawrence illustrated the characters as he spoke. “Oh, good for you, Laurie! What next?” Page Ninety-three “ Do you notice this character 0 ?” “Yes.” “Then you notice it is similar to A without one side?” “Urn—mph.” “Then we’ll say it is the next three letters, so,” writing as he spoke. “ pis D, p is E and p is F.” “Fine!” Then there is a charcater like this 0, which is just the reverse of the last three, so they are G, H and I respectively.” “Oh, Oh! I’m getting excited. Can you go any further?” “Well not by the process of likeness to the first character, but that square might be O; at least we will say so.” “Yes, but there are some with three dots and some with one or two.” “Assuredly, but taking by alternative groups of three, M, N, and O would be a group and O would be the last letter, so it has three dots. Then 0. jp, 0 are M, N, and O.” “Oh, of course!” Well there is the character u which is similar to 0 minus the top. So will say they are the next three letters P, Q, and R, like this—[J, 0,0. But that is as far as I can go, so I’ll copy the code and we will start filling out the letters.” Lawrence wrote this: fo r one abo e righ III hi hi ill I II III II II I I II III I II III III I II II rniu nnnri nnnn-r 00000 ide of firep ace I ill I II III III II III III II I III I III II i0rr nr r0urunnnr “Gory, Bab, we’re getting it! Now R-I-G-H- can only be completed by T making ‘right.’ Then p is T, so p is S and p is U.” “ Oh goody! Now we can fill out more letters. See, the first word is F-O-U-R ‘four’!” exclaimed Bab. “Yes and the second is S-T-O-N-E-S ‘stones’ and you get ‘right side of fire-P-A-C-E which is evidently fire-place!” “Surely! So p is L. Then we get the next three letters J, K, L.” “ But J and K are not used. The only letter we lack is f]-; and it—why Bab how dense we have been—it is V, A-B-O-V-E ‘above’!” “Oh, we have it! we have it!” exclaimed Barbara in delight. “Four stones above right side of fire-place.” Excitedly they rushed downstairs and over to the fireplace. Lawrence counted four stones from the top of the right side of the fireplace and began prying at it with his knife. Page Ninety-four After half an hour’s hard working and after having broken the tip of his knife blade, Lawrence succeeded in loosening the mortar sufficiently to lift the stone. With her breath coming in quick gasps, Barbara reached her hand into the black opening revealed by the removal of the stone. Suddenly she gave a cry of delight. “There is something here but it is fearfully heavy!” Lawrence put his hand in the hole and at length drew out a wooden box. Breathlessly he pried loose the covering and drew forth a bag made of heavy cloth. “It’smoney, Bab, gold money! !” Here Lawrence untied the string that secured the top of the bag and poured into the box a heap of gold coins. Barbara took one of the coins and examined it. “Why they are very valuable, Lawrence, for their age! This one is marked 17-----.” “You’ll be able to sell them to a museum for quite a sum of money, then,” remarked Lawrence. “I will? Why Laurie they are yours! You worked out the code.” “ But you suggested coming here; I made fun of you. No, Barbara, they are yours.” That evening Barbara showed the money to her father. “Yes, Laurie is right. These coins can be sold for about a hundred pounds. And what are you going to do with the money, Bab?” Barbara’s face lighted and she went to her father, sat down on his knee and began twisting his hair around her finger. “Well, father, it you will eke out my little treasure to some extent and be a dear and give your consent, I am going to school in America. I want to see if the American schools will give me a mind like Laurie’s and I do so want to learn some of that Yankee slang!” Christine Kinnaird.

The word should have carried many happy thoughts to my mind. It should have meant home; it should have meant mother; and it should have meant an opportunity to try for success in the business world, for which I had longed. But what it did bring was an awful feeling of loneliness. Two weeks before I had been happy! Another month in an army camp and I would have earned my commission. What had the world to offer to me now? All my old friends were successful business men, while I wandered about the streets in search of work. Perhaps my feeling of depression would not have been so intense had I been used to a life of idleness; but the liberal education I had received, and the agreeable surroundings which I had always known, formed such a contrast to my present state that all my hopes and all my ambitions were little more than pleasant memories. Such was my condition when, on November 25, 1918, I wandered aimlessly along the wharves of San Francisco. An old, weather-beaten dock looked in keeping with my mood and I walked out to the end and sat down with my back against a huge pile. A strange forlorn figure I was, my coat flapping, and my hat crushed carelessly upon my head. But I had little thought for appearances—I was hungry, cold, and lonely. Out in front of me an old schooner tugged at her cables. She was a queer looking craft with heavy blunt ends and ponderous masts,—a tramp, without a doubt. Her low freeboard told me she was a freighter, loaded, and ready for sailing. A line ran from her stern to the dock to keep her from swinging about. Occasionally the breeze would catch her and she would draw it taut, then she would swing back and the heavy line would sag into the water. During these intervals when she lifted the cable, great grey rats would run frantically across this swinging bridge and up into the vessel. Ordinarily rats are loathsome things, but there in the silence of that evening I was thankful for their mute companionship. But they were leaving. With the dawn they would sail away and again I would be alone. As I pondered, I gradually realized that I too wished to sail on the old hulk. A weird attraction swept over me. I tried to throw it off, but it was irresti-ble. I was its slave mentally and physically. It led me to swing down into an old dory and I rowed out and offered my services as seaman for the coming voyage. In quoting from the ship’s log as kept by the mate, many ghastly things are Page Ninety-six brought to my mind. I leave out, however, many figures and readings which tell only of the route of our fated craft. November 26.—Good breeze from N. E. Doing about eight knots. Under way at 5 a. m. Nothing of interest has happened except the fight which the pilot staged between his little terrier and a big rat. It was a hard contest, but the rat finally escaped. The sailors, who are very superstitious, are afraid something will happen to the vessel because the rats were molested. November 27.—Wind still holds from N. E. The little dog became mad with hydrophobia and had to be thrown overboard. Sailors are even more fearful, now that their mascot is gone. November 28.—Wind dying out with promise of heavy weather. Two men on night watch were bitten by rats. They arc now strapped to their bunks and frothing at the mouth. Sailors have refused to stand watch tonight. A young fellow whom we took on at the last minute volunteered his services. November 29.—A dangerous calm prevails. It will probably be followed by heavy weather. Situation grows worse. Another man down with the hydrophobia, leaving only seven to man the ship. The captain is doing all in his power to fight the rats, but there seems to be thousands of them. The men who stood watch last night were exhausted when relieved. November 30.—Storm struck us about ten a. m. and we are new scudding under bare poles. The Captain himself, has been bitten by the crazy rats. Constant fighting and moving about is the only thing that will keep them off, for they are mad and fearless. Have given up trying to keep a watch at night. Every man must shift for himself. This was the last entry in the log. That evening the'mate and two more of the men were victims, leaving two husky sailors and myself, the only sane ones on that doomed ship. Toward evening the wind increased and heavy clouds rolled up from the south. That night was the blackest I had ever seen. The old ship strained and creaked. Occasionally she would roll into the trough of the sea and torrents of water would sweep over her. To intensify it all was the plague—truly a living death. The men were roaming about the ship, their mouths drawn back in horrid shapes and their muscles contracted like those of gaunt fiends. The other two sailors and myself were huddled together under the lea of the cabin. Whenever one of the crazy men would come near us we would fight him off. All this was bad enough, but imagine my position when I found that one of our little number was becoming insane, not from the disease, but from the strain. Probably the other would soon be affected. It is not to be wondered at, for deep in my heart I feared that I too could not stand it. I dreaded the night and the storm; I dreaded the crazed men; I dreaded the disease; but even more than that I dreaded fair weather for I knew that the rats could then come out again. Even then my eyes were heavy and my body ached, yet I knew that to sleep was to be bitten and finally to die. Page Ninety-seven Toward morning the wind died out and the storm changed to torrents of rain. Thunder and lightning rocked the skies and aided in producing the terrible scene. The crazed men at my side were growing worse. I was afraid and crawled away, leaving them together. Not long afterwards a shriek cut through the strom and a flash of lightning showed the two men with hands about each others throats going over the rail. What if it had been I! But death is to be preferred to some things. I cursed the day when I saw the old ship at the wharf; I cursed myself for shipping on her; I cursed the night, and the men who had gone overboard and left me alone; and I cursed even the Supreme Ruler for allowing my condition. Such was my state of mind. Hours passed, then I knew nothing more—I slept! More than twenty-four hours later, I awoke. My head ached fearfully and my muscles were weak and lifeless. I sat up and, with much labor, untangled myself from some ropes that had once been a part of the rigging. The sky was bright and the sea was only slightly rough. As soon as I could get up and move around, I started to take note of the situation. The vessel was water logged and the deck was “awash.” Only broken stubbs were left where the masts had been. Near the stem a body was rocked back and forth by small wavelets. Not a rat was to be seen. Far off to the starboard a sail gradually grew larger. Directly she drew near and a ship’s boat shot out from her side. Soon it came alongside and a kindly old captain clambered over the sail. He took in the situation at cnce and, although he could not have known of the plague which had swept the vessel, he could easily see the result of the storm. “Ahoy there, man!” he greeted. “Are ye all that’s left?” I replied in the affirmative. “Wall, I guess the boat’s yourn,” he said, “I’ll tow you to port for half what you sell ’er for.” This was a condition of which I had not thought. By the law of the sea all wrecked vessels are considered as salvage and may be claimed by the first person who boards them. In the same manner, as the only living soul left, I was owner to the old ship and all her cargo. Of course I accepted the offer of the captain and a few hours later we were under way for the Philippines and the nearest port. Two weeks later I sailed for the United States. The experience has made me a “sadder and a wiser man.” I had learned what it was to be— “Alone, alone; all, all alone, Alone on a wide, wide sea! ” No temporary feeling of depression and loneliness would ever again overcome my better judgment and lead me off on such an .experience. Once more in my own country, I was ready to meet the world and to meet it as a man should. Russell Duffin, C. F. B. Page Ninety-eight iitgh Jitluml (Ealmimr SEPTEMBER 3. Back to the old grind.

Not wishing to appear forgetful and thinking to get a “tip,” he asked her whether she spelled her name with an “e” or an “i,” She smilingly replied: “Why, doctor, my name is Hill.” PRETTY GIRL QUESTIONS. Answered by Miss Cue. Dear Miss Cue: I have taken part in dramatics and have become addicted to the habit of “making-up” when not on the stage. Is it considered perfectly nice? Cecil G. My dear little girl. You must remember that the whole world is a stage. Do just as you deem proper. The boys all like it, but look out for the girls. A SURE CURE: ANTI-FAT. Dear Miss Cue: I have consistently dieted for years, but I seem to be gaining weight all the time. In fact, I am quite chubby; were I older I would be called portly. I fear that unless something'is done, I will need an entire new wardrobe. What would you advise? Margaret M. The best cure for your complaint that we know, is to spend from four to five hours each day at floor—scrubbing or when the floor no longer needs scrubbing, try waxing. If your own floor runs out, try your neighbors. TO BECOME STATELY. My greatest ambition in life is to become one of these proud and haughty looking beauties that you read about in the story books. In my own eyes I am beautiful, but as to stateliness, I am only a dumpy little thing. Is there any hope? Helen P. There certainly is. Hold up your head just a little higher, and you should stretch your body several inches. From the picture you send, we judge that you are a cute little thing. Why want to be stately?

In the summer-time, I very frequently go canoeing, accompanied by a young gentleman. Is there any danger of sun-stroke? “Libet.” No. You are very likely to suffer from “moon-stroke,” however. Another common malady is heart-burn. A mixture of quarrels and two spats is an effective antidote, but usually only temporary in its action. FOR A DELICATE COMPLEXION. My complexion is very delicate, and I want to protect it for the future. It is one of my strongest assets. What would you suggest as to its care? Elsa L. Lots of us have the same trouble, Elsa. The following is the best method of preservation that I know. Dust thoroughly, at least once a week. On Saturdays, it is well to run over the complexion with a vacuum cleaner. Never let any of the male species bite it. The mouth is the proper place. Profuse blushing is said to injure the complexion. Always make others blush, but never blush yourself. If you follow aforesaid course, I don’t think your delicate complexion will be exposed to any harm. DRASTIC MEASURES NECESSARY. I have a terrible laugh. What can I do for it? I enclose a picture of it for your inspection. Lucille B. From what we can see of your picture, Lucille, we can see no hope. The best thing that I would advise is to have it sewed up—at least partly. GET A SILENCER! Miss Hardy—“When I sing, I get tears in my eyes. What can I do for it?” R. Burk—“You might stuff cotton in your ears.” ONLY TOO TRUE. “Zip” Goldberg—“Why is a steady girl like a Ford?” C. Goff—“I don’t know. Why?” “Zip”—“It isn’t the original cost, it’s the upkeep.” Honest opinions, like homely women in street cars, stand up the longest.

But in a year I got over that, For a Sophomore was I, I knew the feel of the principal’s slat, And I learned just how to sigh. Another year rolled ’round apace, My Junior year I reached, It got my goat the awful pace, The way the teachers preached. But now I am a Senior proud, On high I hold my head, Upon my brow, Oh, ne’er a cloud, By powerful knowledge am I led, And so will I into the world Go out to earn my bread.
