Early in the term an annual was planned under the supervision of this organization to give the public an idea of what the school -accomplishes in the school term. To help defray the expenses of this annual the Student Body gave The Honor of the Stars and Stripes, a four act drama, which was a grand success and a big credit to the organization.

Representatives from the Student Body were sent to Banning to compete in the Forensic Contest against other schools of the county.

The students hope to make this a larger and better organization next year. S. M. '19.

Thr iilninnrun FORENSIC REPRESENTATIVES Martha McSwain Hilda Armour Josephine Knotts Senior Sophomore Freshman THE FORENSIC CONTEST For the first time the Elsinore Union High School sent three representatives to take part in the Forensic Literary Contest held at Banning, Friday, May 2. These representatives were Josephine Knotts, Hilda Armour and Martha Mc- Swain. The story and declamation con- tests Were very close indeed, and the MANUAL TRAINING DEPARTMENT The manual training work this year has been done under the direction of Mr. G. C. Livingston. Twelve students, eight boys and four girls, have had the advantage of this work, from among the high school students. In addition to this, fourteen boys have spent an aft- task of naming the winners was a nard one. Martha McSwain tied with the Banning contestant for second place in the oration contest. Corona carried off the honors of the day and is in posses- sion of the cup. We consider that our representatives did wonderfully well for the first effort of this sort and that they deserve a great deal of credit. At least We have succeeded again in putting Elsinore on the map. ernoon each week receiving instruction in the shop. With seven Weeks taken from the regular time, 'on account of influenza, a great deal of the work that would have been done, could not be accomplished. The department, in ad- dition to its regular work, has made for the Red Cross three bed-side tables and three hospital canes.

Is she going to fix you? No, Miss Bloomfield is going to make me up. Do you think I look all right for Betty? See my swagger stick? Isn't it great? Yes, and do look. Most of the peo- ple are here already. There is Elizabeth. Doesn't she make the dearest, sweetest Lena Bergenfeld? I'm crazy about her in that third act. lsn't Page a scream! He looks more like Frank Olcutt tonight-more se- rious. That suit of his is nifty! Are you nervous, Page? Just a little. Where's my note- book? Say, Edith, isn't Bernice pretty tonight? I mean Hilda. For the land's sake. look at Otto! I wouldn't know him. He looks actual- ly fierce. Hello, Otto, where'd you get that coat? You look nice. . Well, I ought to look nice! This is Prof's. coat and Miss Bloomfield put enough of that awful glue on my face to stick three beard-s-and still I'm afraid it will come off. Where's my check- book? Let me see, 'You must put away such prejudices'-no, that's wrong. Oh, Stan! Well, you certainly are a typical 'blunderbus'! Please do not drop that hammer on my toes. Say, Martha, you make a fellow want to get sick when he sees your Red Cross outfit! Vivian Marlow just suits you for a name. Miss Bloomfield, did you get my chocolates? I simply must have them, you know. I'm actually getting thin! Yes, Alberta. But Sophie, you cer- tainly do not look thin! Hands up! Ellis Fees, take off that awful beard until you need it. 'You frighten me Mr. Waltersl' All right, Lena, but 'I'm crazy about you. It's your eyes, They're hypnotic! Miss Clark certainly takes her part like a professional. As Mrs. Scrovins, she is wonderful. And Josephine was just made for Tildy. She really has tal- ent, don't you think? Carroll, you make a perfect Irish Michael. Your wig is fine. Did Mr. Thompson make it? Oh, Clara, you are simply fascinat- ing in that mourning. Do you think I look all right? All right! Well, I should say I do! To look at you anyone would think you really had lost a husband. You know when you give that long speech about your baby, it just makes shivers run all over me, Gretchen. How do you do it? Oh, it's easy! Say, Ellis, help me with this, will you? Well, 'I suppose so' but 'an officer does not chase pigs! ' Everybody quiet! Miss Long has something to say to us. Oh, I'm so nervous! The curtain isigoing up! That went pretty well, didn't it? Let me -see the crowd. Pretty big, isn't it? Whee, we ought to make some money! ' I wish I had a programme. Lend me yours, will you Johnnie? Shifting scenes is the worst! Prof. can sure work, can't he? Are you nervous now? I forgot some of mine. Do you think anyone noticed? Miss Bloomfield had to prompt me several times, too. I don't care! Isn't Libby wonderful? I cried my- self. Stanley is great, too! And Hilda- and Ellis makes such a dandy villain. Everyone was great! Curtain. It's all over! Thank goodness!
