BELL Secretary and Treasurer ...................... ...... R AYMOND C. LAMKE Last year, when the Athletic Association was reorganized, and its consti- tution revised to meet the existing conditions of affairs in the school, the object of the movement was to establish athletics on a firm footing. In this I think it has proved a great success, for now athletic affairs are carried on in a business-like way. A great deal of credit is due Mr. B. C. McCulloch, president of the asso- ciation last year, for a large part of its success is owing to his persistent and untiring efforts. This year it has been necessary to make little or no change in the constitution, so, but for a few amendments, the constitution remains unaltered. 4 There was, however, one Haw in the Association last year, namely: that it had absolutely nothing to do with the administration of the athletic finances of the school, But this defect has been remedied. for a committee of three students, known as the Finance Committee, was appointed by the principal to assist the office in the distribution and expenditure of the finances. It is the business of this committee to pass on all proposed athletic expenditures and to approve all bills before they are paid. Thus far, this has proved an exceedingly wise move, for the condition of the athletic treasury is better now than it has been in years. The day on which the regular school emblems are given to the various athletic teams has been called HX. Af, day. This day, last year, was so very sueccessful that it is thought a litting plan to make it a yearly occurrence. ., v1,. v A 7 zirfilxsfoi aQ.1pg,igiy yy yy47 There will be need from time to time for making slight changes in the constitution, but T think that as long as the association is kept up to meet existing' eonditions in this school, it will fnliill the object of its re-organiza- tion, and be a live faetor in the school life.

The fact that six and sometimes seven Hnewn men composed the team makes their record all the more creditable. Captain Rogers and Bragg, members of the remarkable 1906 championship team, were the only two regular men, A repetition, however, of the record of 1906 could hardly be expected from any prospects. The season opened with an excellent victory over Culver. l.lragg's pitch- ing was very much of a factor, and the batting of Captain Rogers was very much in evidence. Morgan Park took away the lirst game of the series, 3-0, but Academy defeated Onarga in a desperately fought, up-hill game. Then came the ten-inning victory over Lake Forest, and the 5-2 defeat at the hands of the Chicago Freshmen. In the second game with Morgan Park, the Academy broke even in the series, winning by the score of 14-11. Armour added the third defeat by an 8-1 victory, thus putting the Academy out of the championship. High School was defeated in the following game, and the season was brought to a close by the 4-5 defeat at Lake Forest. In conclusion, we tind a total of six victories and four defeatsg but of the four defeats, one was the game played in an impossible tield at Lake Forest, and the scores of the other three were heightened by the ineligibles. Captain Rogers and Coach Graber deserve much praise for their faithful work with the team, and with six men from the 1908 material now in school, we have every reason to look for a worthy showing in baseball this spring.

Review of Swimming Season of 1908 Last year's swimming team was the most remarkable in the history of the school. lt was composed of Foster, Griffin, Tracy, and Breytspraak, an undefeatable four, whose meets were a series of splendid victories. They first met Lewis lnstitute and won by the comfortable score of 54 to 36. Then came the lnterscholastic at the Illinois Athletic Club, where the Academy received 17 points, Oak Park 16. and Lewis Institute 7M. ln the relay they covered the distance in 1.31 4-5, breaking the former inter- scholastic record of 1.40, and this record they still hold, The next meet jf IQ-1 3'S1'cLx' ,1 Cl.-1 p Hill' 53 Q H 5.2 AE E' U gi 'E .- .YE gn.

After that meet with only three men, Griliin, Foster, and Breytspraak, they won an invitation relay at the Chicago Athletic Club. This year linds the famous quartette scattered. Griffin and Foster are at Mercersburg Academy and Tracy at Northwestern University. Breytspraak alone is with us, but the record of the team's achievements is something of which we are very proud-a bit of history that we fear will not soon repeat itself. Football- Season 1908 Football, happily, has again taken its accustomed place in our athletics, and we are now able to play inter-academic games. All this is owing to the fact that the Northwestern Uunversity has suspended its ruling in regard to football. The season of 1908 was our lirst in two years, and accordingly was not up to our usual Academy standard. lt showed conclusively that the men were not familiar with the new rules and that inter-class football does not develop the real football player. The beginning of the season was marked by a large turn'out of men striving for positions. Practice went along very nicely, indeed, but as there was no game scheduled for a long time, the men became stale. However, they linally started with a 5-O victory over the Varsity in a practice game-the only live points the Academy secured during the entire season. The remaining games of the schedule were all defeats, the team slumped perceptibly throughout the remainder of the season. Ou November first they played High School, which, contrary to expectations, was a 16-0 defeat. The result was due mainly to the inability to hold points and frequent penal- izing. Then came that almost-won game with Lake View. Though weak in offense, we were strong on the defense, and held the Red and NVhite players to downs one foot from the goal line. Lake Forest followed, and they being thorough masters of the new game, trounced the Academy badly. Still we bore our defeats philosophically, but when the Evanston lligh School tri- umphed our spirits were broken. After that Morgan Park easily linished us, for the men had no go left in them. A good football team cannot be trained in one year. Mr. Moulton made a valiant effort to perform that miracle and great credit is due him, but the men were weakened by discouragement and inaction and would not come out for practice.

C. Lamke, brother of last year's captain, the team equalled, if it did not better, the remarkable record of the previous year. Certain changes were made in the line-up in the early part of the season. As a result, the team work was not developed to its highest point until the middle of the season Goal-shooting became more accurate, until during the height of the season, the men were dropping them in from all over the fioor. Captain Lamke was the mainstay of the team, and too much credit cannot be given him for the wonderful success of the season. But he had the earnest co-operation of every man on the team at all times. The hrst game of the season with Lake View was a most interesting one. At the end of the regular time the score was tied. and it was only in the extra period of time that the '4Cook County Champions were able to shoot over the winning basket. Then came a series of fairly easy victories, which was broken by the defeat at New Trier. This game proved a farce, the low ceiling and numerous posts preventing any semblance of team play. Next came High School, and the Academy secured its first 4'leg on the local cham- pionship by a clean-cut 18 to 14 victory. It was just three weeks later, when our team was seen at its best, that the second High School game was played. The interest was intense, both schools turned out in force, and the spec- tators will remember the game for a long time to come. All through the game the score was practically even, and it was only by a superhuman show of endurance, that the Academy was able to score two extra points imme- diately before the whistle blew, by this victory they became the champion- ship team. Our old Academic rivals were easy for us, and we showed ostensibly where the banner would have rested, had there been an inter-academic league. On March 6, the Academy was unexpectedly defeated in the finals of the North Shore Basketball tourney by High School. Our team was actually played out. Much of the credit for the season's record is undoubtedly due to Coach Holsinger for his able and faithful work with the team, and it is our hope that he can make his second team at Evanston Academy as succeessful as his hrst.

TCDniS Review T The tennis season of 1903 was the most successful in the history of the school. The team, consisting of Captain Foster, K. Bragg, Hobart, L. Bragg, and James, played in four dual meets, defeating Lake Forest Academy twice, Lake View High School once, and tying with Evanston High School. In the inter-Academic tournament held at Evanston, K. Bragg and Foster, rep- resenting thev Academy, tied for lirst place with Morgan Park, but in the play-off of the tie at Morgan Park the Academy was defeated. The tourna- ment for the championship of the school was held at the close of the season. The gold medal for singles was captured by Kendal Bragg, making the second year that he has won the singles.

G, Moulton, instructor in economics. The object of this organization is to stimulate the interest of the students along commercial lines, by visiting important industrial establishments, by addresses from prominent business men. and through the medium of helpful magazines. Among the important places which have been visited during the winter are the Board of Trade, the Field Museum, the Illinois Steel XVorks, Swift Sz Co., Elgin Watch Co. and the Deering Harvester Co. These trips have been very instructive and were well attended by the students. Several of Chicagols foremost business men have addressed the Club, giving very interesting accounts of different phases of business life. The officers elected at the first meeting were as follows: President .............................. NY. E. THOMPSON Vice-President .........,. F. 'THOMPSON Secretary and Treasurer R. C. CA1RNs COXSTYTTQTIONAL COMMl'l'TEI2 H. G. Movlfrox G. lXTROl'1'K R. C, C,xIRNs Altogether the Club has had a most successful year, and it is hoped that the students of the commercial classes next year. will maintain the interest which has been shown this year and give the Club their most earnest support. SONNET Oh, forest trees, that years have stood the blast Of hoary-headed winter's furious rage, And many a blossoming summer in the past. Have veiled, with verdant youth, oncoming age. The allotted time of life fo' ye draws neait And, death approaches nearer year by year. Already over yonder, thou canst hear The ringing of the woodmanls fatal axe, .-Xnd many a tree, that once did upright stand, The brightest ornament that could adorn the land, Defeated. doth. disgraced, on mother earth relax. So shalt thou be. oh. forest trees so bright, For thoughtless man will ne'er restrain his hand Till thou art swept forever from our sight. I U7111. J.

Dwionr l L'RNEss The lfvanston Academy Christian League is a union between the Y. XV. and the Y. Xl. C. Afs. lt has been felt for some time by those closely con- nected with the work that these two associations were not doing effective work. just why it is difficult to determine. lt certainly was not due to any lack of interest or helpfulness on the part of the State Boards, nor was it due to any lack of interest on the part of the students who assumed the responsi- bility of the work. So it was thought wise to unite the two associations. Now, whatever criticism may arise from such a step, it is well to bear in mind these two points: tll lt is practical: 625 Experience attests its wis- dom. 'lihere is a constant co-mingling between the young men and womeng at the party, in the class-room, in the church. 'lihen why draw a line of Clis- tinction in academy life? Moreover, the most effective gathering that has ever been in the Academy was a meeting of both the young men and women that was held on Sunday evenings before the two associations were-formed. The purpose of the new organization is to promote the social and spiritual life of the ,Xcademy and to render. in every way possible, practical service. The time-honored stag and joint socials at the commencement of the year have been provided for in the constitution: also the banquet that was inaugurated this year will be an annual function. ln addition to this there will, from time to time, be special affairs, such as sleigh rides, etc. The highest purpose, however, which the League intends to fuliill is to promote and foster a deep spiritual life. 'lihis will be done by llible and mission-study courses, as well as by the Sunday evening meeting that has already proved so successful. It is hoped that upon the foundation already laid Academy students will ereet a building not made with hands. but a building made by the power and purity of strong' Christian characters that shall not only endure through their student life. but will go out and continue with them throughout life.

VVe got to thinkin' about it, f'r ye know Hiram's niece expects to go to sum iducational institution. so we decided to invistigate thim thor- oughly. Moi woife always did set a lot in sthore by Hiram's niece, don't ye know. Well, so Oi says to moi woife, 'Put on your merry widdow an' we'll take a look at these here so-called institutions, an' after travelin' a right smart distance we cum to that great and wunderful place, com- monly known as th' 'Ivinston Aeademy.' NVe rapped on the door gin- teel like, but no wan cums and', th' door bein' open, moi woife an' Oi walks in. lNhat a place, l-linnessy!-may Fate spare ye from interin' inny institushun of inny sort! We were lookin' at a long row of signs in glass cases, th' Hrst wan statin' that Miss So-an'-So wud play th' pianer an' another wud read a book, whin lo an' behold, wud ye believe it, Hin- nessy, a bell loike our alarm clock back home wint off an' iv all th' noise! Fellers an' goirls all a-runnin' into each other, hollerin', illffilly, an' iight- in' wid no wan to sthop thim! Moi woife, she grabs her merry widdow an' Oi moi umbrella an' her arm, an' out we runs! Pritty soon sum shmart feller cums burstin' out th' door-St. Patrick! Hinnessy, Oi don't see how they dare have glass in th' doors around thim lawbreakers!-an' this here feller makes sum reel shmart an' impudint remark about 'fist cum over from lreland,' but, Hinnessy, if ye'd a seen him-jist let me give ye an idea iv what he looked loikeg his hat, well, Oi'll bet it cudn't hev nt our Fido at home, an' he had a purple an' yellow band around it, eoverin' more of his ear than his head: his hair was combed straight back-cuspidor, Oi think they call it-an' he had on a pink tieg his suit, well, Oi declare ye cudn't cover the checks with a good-sized piece of note paper, an' on his vest was pinned about siven pins-all a doin' no good: his shoes were rid an' his socks green-there was plinty iv the green a showin', too, an' Oi cudn't help but think how the expression on his face an' the color of his socks jist matched! Thin prisently two gigglin' goirls came out and had th' nerve to say how 'cute' Billy looked. Moi woife an' Oi hearin' th' noise subsidin' decided to try it once more. She suggestin' we go up stairs, an' as l always did hate to cross moi woife. up we goes. At the top of th' stairs ivery wan seemed to be goin' in a hall, an' thin th' alarm clock goes off again an' we goes in, too. A man on the stage says, will Mr. and Miss XVhat-Ye-May-Call-It plaze to see him. Oi asked moi woife if he was blind an' she sed she guessed he wus, 'cause they wus right there. Thin they started to singin'. By th' Way, Hinnessy, Oi meant to tell ye that on the stage wus sum more peo- ple. Nixt to the pianer wus about noine fellers an' goirls a-tryin' to drown th' others out an' seein' who cud hit th' highest note without their vices a-crackin'! On the ither soide sat th' teachers-or, as the cata- logue calls thim, the faculty. Well, it's no wonder some of thim pure children look so thin! After they got through a-singin' they hed a prayer, during' which the faculty prayed and the students made eyes at one anither. Thin they sang sum more an' thin they gave th' faculty a hed start an' thin all started after thim like a pack of woild Indians! Will, says Hennessy, d'ye think ye moight hev made th' mistake an' got into th' insane asylum? As moi woife says, answered Dooley, 'its six iv wan an' a half dozen iv th' other. 4 J Name. VVz1rncr.

Z. 101105 There once lived a man named Trueheart. who was famous through all the country round about because of his truthfulness. In the journey of life he had never once turned aside from the way of truth. He had overcome many hardships, and had climbed the most difficult steeps, never giving way to the enticements of the easy-going sidepaths of untruthg and now he seemed to have reached the plain where the way of truth was pleasanter than he ever had hoped to find it. and where forbidden paths had ceased to entice. He was journeying on the Plain of Confidence. But one day while going cheerily on his way he came unexpectedly upon a great difhculty. Directly across his path lay a deep canyon, the bottom of which he could not see. Search as he would. he could tind but one way by which he might cross this dreadful pitg a ledge of rock, rounding and slip- pery, and not over a foot in width stretched from one side to the other. Trueheart sank upon his knees and crept forward on to the narrow ledge, but when he gave one look into that awful abyss his courage failed him and he drewf back shuddering. VVhat a bitter disappointment! just when life seemed most successful and most worth living, how hard it was to see it all ended thus, the goal of his ideal not accomplished. To what end had been his former steadfastness. his other victories, if life was to end thus? Hearing a step, he turned and saw a woman approaching, dressed in splendid gar- ments. Her face was fair, and she might have been handsome were it not for the steely glint from her cold gray eyes. Trueheart recognized her to be none other than Fabrication. How now, Trueheart, she said. f'VVhy stand you here with so troubled a look on that honest countenance ?'y Alas, madamlu was the reply, Hfor four and thirty years have I traveled this Road of Truth without once leaving it. but here I am confronted with a diliiculty which I cannot overcome. There is nothing but death for me, if I attempt to go on. You are right, said the lady. It is nothing but death to any 1nan to try to cross the Gulf of Business Failure on that narrow bridge of Honesty. But see this path leading off to the right. and look on 'yonder side of the abyss where another returns. This one is called False Promises. and by it you can go a little way around, and miss altogether this canyon of Failure. The other path is called VVhite Lies, and by it you can easily come back into the path of Truth. Follow me, and I will show you the way. But Trueheart hesitated to leave the path wherein he had traveled so long. Yet he could not bring himself to attempt again the bridge, and Fabrication's pffer was so agreeable that after a little more urging he consented to follow ter. But just as he was leaving the road he heard someone calling to him from behind. Turning, he saw his old friend, the giant Faith, hurrying towards him. Upon being questioned Trueheart told Faith of his doubts and bitter disap- pointment, and of his decision to follow Fabrication. But, turning to introduce his fair enticer, he was surprised to find her gone. Pooh, said Faith, this path of False Promises leads to the Labyrinth of Deception in the Forest of Falsehood, and once there the Road of Truth is hard to tincl. There is but one safe way to reach the other side of this gulf, and that is by the Bridge of Honesty. I have carried many a man across it on my back. Come, climb up and I'll strap you fast. And thus was Trueheart saved from the evils of falsehood and carried safely over the pit. Thankfully he took up his journey once more in the Road of Truth and followed the call of his ideal. 106 THE li'lif1R Hashimura Togo Visits Euphronia ElLf?1ll'0IIftl Perry Clark Greene Evixxsrox, Feb. 27, 1909.

Frmzrh When Jim Graham came to Company A, he was immediately branded as a tender-foot, and as short-lived for the work of rounding up Mexican cattle-rustlers on the Arizona frontier. Slight of figure, blue-eyed, fiaxen- haired, he did not impress one as a fighter, and his gentlcness of manner and speech reminded one of a girl. The men all had their petsg but instead of a Colt's, or a carbine or even his mustang, Jim's pet was a horned toad. They were great companions, these two: they seemed to understand each other perfectly, and as Jim would tenderly draw the little animal from the folds of his buckskin shirt, the men would laugh at the toad's antics. The passing weeks, however, failed to efface the first impression, and as Jim had once refused to fight, when taunted, he was not only branded as a coward, but was also accused of avoiding danger in the work of the troop. One day a sharp, fierce skirmish took place, only three of the cattle- rustlers escaping. Some of the troop thought Jim gave chase, but as these desperadoes were the fiercest of the lzand, and as jim did not return, they decided he had deserted. Nothing was thought of his absence, in fact. they had expected him to quit before this. The winter months passed. Nothing had been seen of the escaped rustlers, and, as the troop was riding one day near where the fight had been, they were talking of this but not of Jimg he had been forgotten. Attracted to a bright object in a pocket of the hills, which proved to be the silver trappings of a saddle, they discovered the skeletons of three men, and a closer examination disclosed the fact that these were the remains of the escaped desperadoes of the previous fall. The position of these and of their horses indicated that they had died fighting. A hundred yards away, his faithful Carbine resting over the saddle of his dead horse, lay another skeleton. And, as if glad of the presence of some living thing again, from under the pommel of the saddle, a faded blue ribbon about its neck. hopped a little horned toad. l08' THE BEAR The Preliminary Oratorical Contest lllimw Zllargarvf HCI1LClZwtI3Y In the place of the regular meeting of the De Stael Literary Society, there was to be the Preliminary Oratorical Contest. It was generally conceded that there was little doubt of the outcome, Mary Blake would win. She had spent much time in preparing her oration, had a natural gift for speaking, and besides had taken several lessons in delivery. She herself was confident of her own successg so were her fond parents, who had denied themselves much that she might have a good education, so, too, were the other con- testants. They felt that they were only in the preliminary for show. Two of them had spent little time or thought upon their papers, and the third, Florence lVright, was only a timid freshman, who had written for the pure joy of working, without the slightest expectation of winning victory from her senior contestants. Mary was third on the program. There was self-assurance in her manner when she rose, confidence in the toss of her head. VVhen she spoke, although there was perhaps too great an effort at eloquence, still her enunciation was distinct, and when she took her seat, she did it with the air of one who feels success assured. Then came Florence, trembling, swaying back and forth, stumbling over her words, and panting with excitement. lt was the second time that she had ever addressed the society. To speak before an audience, and especially before judges, frightened her. Still she stumbled on. She was telling the story of a great martyr, of whom her audience had never heard. Through the mist of halty speech and inarticulate words, they saw a man, great amid the horrors of guerrilla warfare, strong in times of dire distress, and gen- erously forgiving when put to death. She spoke badly, stood worse, and when she had finished slunk to her seat. Mary pitied her, and held out a kindly hand. Great was the astonishment of both when the judges declared in favor of Florence. admonishing her to work up her delivery before the final contest. The younger girl jumped for joy. It was so unexpected. The older tlushed very red and then turned quite pale. 'fl-I am glad that you've won, Mary said simply. 'fOh, who'd have thought it ll' cried the child. I am so, so happy. Mary smiled. It was a sad, bitter smirk, but in the general excitement it passed for a smile. Ulf I couldn't get the honor myself, she said, I'd rather have you win it than anyone else. Mary soon left, but Florence lingered. The older girls were advising her what she should do. It means a whole lot of work for you now, said the president. l don't care how much work it is if l can do it. Do you think l can win in June, if l try very hard F Of course you can, dear. VVe'll get Miss Matthews to coach you, and it will all come out fine. Thus assured, the happy child ran down to get her wraps. The hall below was empty save for a little woman in a well-worn black dress. Her face wore an expression half anxious, half expectant. lt was a face full of love and self-sacrifice. The woman was Mary's mother. 'fWho won P she asked. I did. And I'm so happy! Isn't it fine F The look of expectancy died instantly on the other's face, and there was no joy in her voice when she spoke. Yes, you ought to be happy. Then, after a pause, l can't believe it. Wliere is she, my poor dear P Something in her manner struck a sensitive chord in the girl's heart. Florence had always been prone to throw herself into the feelings of others E VA N S T O N A CA II E M Y 109 when those emotions were not happy ones. It was this that had given her the power to depict her martyr so well, it was this that had won her the pre- liminary, and it was this that moved her now. I-I don't know where she's gone. She didn't seem to-to care as much about losing as you do. The woman looked at her sharply. She did not understand the child. She was half angry at her for defeating her own ambitions and Mary's. Florence, you don't know Mary if you think she would show it. Her heart was set on that honor, and so was her dad's and mine. You have three more years to win, but this is her last.', I can't help it if I did win, Florence said. Suddenly the joy of victory came over her and she shook off the spell. I can't help it, Mrs. Blake, if I wrote better than Mary. I've won and that's all there is to it. As she spoke a door to one of the class rooms opened and Mary's tear- stained face appeared. V 'fMy darling! cried tl1e little woman in black, rushing toward her. Florence followed, but stopped at the door. The sight of the mother and daughter together suddenly made her realize what her victory meant. Like a flash came to her mind the boarding house on a side street, which Mrs. Blake was keeping, the father, a good, kind, unsuccessful man, with a deadly disease, who was content to disappear that he might reappear again in his children. All the luxuries and half the necessities of this family had been sacrificed for Mary's education. Snatches of conversation came to Florence's memory. This was to have been the great occasion in their livesg this would have paid for all the sacrifices-this, just to see Mary standing before a great audi- ence, to hear her clear voice in the auditorium. They knew that she would win, and then- But no, thought Florence, the reward is not for them, for I, not she, have won the preliminary. A lump came to her throat. She took a couple of steps forward, then stopped. She, too, would like the honor. It would be great to represent her society. But- 4'Mary, she said, I meant to have told you upstairs fshe hoped the good God would forgive her the liel. You know I am taking a very heavy course. I-I-well, my mother-er-I don't think I'll be able to work up 1ny oration. I said from the lirst that I did it only for fun. I don't want the honors. You with your line delivery can represent De Stael better than I. Mary stared at her in surprise at first. Then rushed over and threw her arms about the girl's neck. You dear little ducky. I wouldnlt take it from you for anything. But you will, toof' said Florence. And she did. 110 gg W THE BEAR A Haunted House Piericz, Ruth Eddhzgrield Several old friends, who had been separated for some time, sat around the comfortable wood fire in the home of one of them. The hour was late, and the only light was the tire, which cast weird shadows around the room. Influenced by the hour and scene, they began, to tell ghost stories. Say, -lackf' said one of them, that was a dandy you told just then, but it isn't true. Now, this story l am going to tell, you can believe it or not, as you please, but you will have the opportunity of testing its truth. Out in the coun- try is an old house. It is situated in a wood, the only means of access being a lonely road, overgrown with briars and vines. The house itself is a ruin and has been for many years. A long time ago a doctor and his wife lived there. He was a strange man, so odd that everyone was afraid of him. He was deeply interested in his experiments, which he conducted in a room set apart for that purpose. His wife was a meek, quiet woman, who rarely had anything to say. Nobody knew anything about them, and they had been there but a very short time. One night, as some of the neighbors passed, they heard screams issuing from the house. There was a great flash of light just then, and the noise of an explosion. The neighbors, thoroughly frightened, hurried away as fast as they could, The strange story of this happening got about, and it was noticed that the doctoris wife was not seen after that night. A little later the doctor left the village, never to return. Since then nobody will go near the place, as strange stories of screams and cries and ghostly figures are told. Nobody knows what happened on that' night so long ago. Did the woman die by fair means or foul? is a question nobody has ever been able to answer. Now, l propose that we, having good strong nerves and not believ- ing in the supernatural, spend the next night in that house. He finished, and the others eagerly took up the plan. They then returned to their respective homes, but the next night found them, with keen curiosity and excitement, gathered in the home of Jack, eager to start on their venture. The night was warm and fair, the stars gleamed in the sky and the moon shone down upon their silent figures. At last they came to the overgrown road, the trees arching so thickly overhead that the rays of the moon could not penetrate. Finally they came to the old house. Bats and beetles went whirring about, a night owl hooted afar, crickets sang in the shadows, and ina lonely pool the frogs sang to each other. The night birds sang in the trees. They went up to the front door, opened it and started inside. The hall was dark, not a ray of light was anywhere to be seen. They searched the dark rooms. There was nothing peculiar about them, they were like the rooms in any of the old houses near by. After diligent search, one of the party came upon a door leading to an addition to the house. This, said one, 'Amust have been the doctor's laboratory. As they stood there, a wild cry was heard, it died quickly away and then was heard the soft sobbing of a woman. Again and again the cries rang out into the air. This was more than they could stand. They turned and ran, until at least they came to the highway. Then their host turned to them and said: 'fNow, I'm even with you for all the jokes you played on me during my college days. My sister is quite an elocutionist, and, what is more, she is camping with a party of friends not far from here. T told her of our plan, and asked her to impersonate the ghost, which she did with immense success. She is probably laughing now to think how easily you were fooled. Come, and don't stand there with your mouths wide open. staring at mc. fm not the ghost. We'll go home-and tell more ghost stories, he added. with a smile. EVANSTON ACADEMY 111 Old Aden.. Fourth Year Celia Clark As a child, as far back as l can remember, there were always two beings, the mention of which filled me with a great Lllld overpowering terror. The very suggestion, I'll have to send you to live with Old Aden, never failed to turn me from a shrieking tomboy into a wide-eyed uLittle Miss Muffetf' In fact, it is doubtful if the mention of that other awe-inspiring creature, Old Adenls bull, was any more efficacious as a remedy for too exuberant spirits. Adjoining ours were the fields which formed the domain of the second of these eccentric beingsg and away in the distance scowled the one-story struc- ture which furnished the abode of the tirst. Along the fence which separated these realms from ours grew bushes of great, luscious raspberriesg and, as might be expected, the finest berries were always on the other side. lt was thus an annual July necessity for us to decide whether we valued life or a raspberry pie more highly. But as the raspberry pie was a certainty and death was only an awful probability, we usually decided for the pie. The boldest member of the family, which was seldom myself, climbed over upon the forbidden ground, while the rest remained in quaking agony on the pa- rental hillside, ready to shout a warning when Aden or his bull came dashing down the pasture on the wings of the wind, to visit the rewards of gluttony upon us. For the story had often been mysteriously whispered among us of how, once upon a time, Big Sam Johnson, prowling incautiously too near the tiger's lair in search of a stray hen's nest, had been chased speedily out of the place by Old Aden with a tea kettleful of boiling water in his hand, and accompanying his movements with a volley of explosive language guaranteed to condemn any offender to an eternity in the lower world. Indeed, all my conceptions of Beelzebub himself have always appeared in the guise of Old Aden's shoort-checked jumper, old brown trousers, and flap- ping black slippers: although l have never yet been quite able to imagine even his Satanic majesty snatching one of his rosetted slippers from his feet with which to knock the flies off of the window panes. So extraordinary was the character of this old man that he seemed to endow with a hit of his personality everything about him, even including his animalsg for strange stories were told of cattle that could jump a ten-foot fence and hens that layed two eggs a day. However, l can only say that once when his drove of hogs swam a ditch into our oat held, not a dog could be found brave enough to face them, and after they had threatened the lives of two of us children who undertook to chase them out, my father became uncon- trollably exasperated, took down his axe, and dealt the ringleader a few such hard blows that,-well, that ditch has gurgled a bloody secret for nearly seven years now, but no one is any the wiser. I have always wondered if those swine were not actually some stragglers of that devil-possessed herd, who escaped falling over the cliff in Palestine with their fellows so long ago. However inhospitable Old Aden may seem to all visitors by the backway, his whole manner is cordiality itself to those who appear at the front gate. Down the path he comes pattering along, his little old weazened face all wreathed with smiles, and with true old-fashioned hospitality insists on drag- ging the trembling visitors into his cottage to taste his old imported wine and fruit cake, the famous secret of which, so he informs them, all the ladies of the neighborhood are dying to possess. Then, seating himself at the little old wheezing organ, he regales his visitors with snatches of love songs. delivered in a very hoarse, but melodramatic, voice. ln spite of the qualms of his more imaginative guests, the songs have as yet never charmed anyone into the guise of a bull or a hog: and the wine has never been proved to contain anything more poisonous than am ample addition of cistern water. The unknown quan- tities in the fruit cake could not he discovered by any system of equations in THE BEAR - Pals Jessie and Leila Gee I wish I had a girl! ,' Georgie and Jessie Bob and Leila V E VA X S T O X .fl C.-I IJ Ii JI Y 113 Slaught and Lenne's Algebra, but, suffice it to say, that the guests have usually found the consequences of eating it less serious than those of offending Old Aden's pride by abstaining. However, the harvesters who mow the grain on Aden's vast tields once a year can scarcely be said to have experienced such hospitable treatment. In fact, Old Aden once confided to my father that he had solved the problem of feeding threshers. Nor would any algebraic equations be needed here to show that the results Aden obtained by this solution were zero. For the harvesters prefer to buy their grub to eating Aden's unknown dishes, from which such vaguely suggestive odors always arise. Whether or not Old Aden eats these coneoctions himself, or whether he subsists entirely on fruit cake and wine, I am not prepared to say. But, like his swine, I believe he has possession of the secret of immortalityg and if, tive hundred years from now, l should pass by his ranch, in some other embodiment, I believe that I would hear the vaguely familiar sounds of his wheezy organ. his Happing slippers, or his hoarse voice uttering wicked words. A Visitor at Prep.u Third lf'vm' Prize Ruth Eridilzgfield A well-dressed and fairly intelligent-looking woman got off a street car at Church street, Evanston, and, going up to the policeman at the corner, began: Can you tell me where the Academy building is? W'hat Academy? Why, Evanston Academy, of course. You're not sure, you say, but you think it is a few blocks over until you reach the lake, and then a few blocks up. Very well. Thank you. The policemen are so incompetent. They never know where any- thing is. Maybe I'll get there sometime. I think it is horrid they don't have street cars here. XValking is so tiresome. The streets here seem so crooked. I would hate to live here. I know I would always be twisted up, and never know just where I was going. It seems to be a long way over to the Academy. I didn't realize it was so long. That must be a student over there. I'l1 go over and talk to him. and ask him where I can tind my son. How do you do? You are a student, I suppose. Do you know my son, ,lack B-? You are slightly acquainted with him? Met him in one of your classes, you say. Do you know where he is, or not? No, but we can tind out in the office. Thank you so much for offering to go with me. I know I could never tind my way. Are you a First Year? VVhy, so is Jack. Pardon me, but you are rather old, are you not, to be going to the Amdcuzy. It is queer I've never heard Jack speak of you. He always tells me all about the boys he chums with. Jack is .meh a good boy. He never gives me a moment's trouble. How does he like the school? Oh, prettv well, but he doesn't like one of the teachers very well. He says he has it in for him, whatever that may be. Says he isn't fair. VVhy? Oh. just because he didn't pass him in an examination. I think jack is right. lle is such a bright boy that I kzmze he gets through all his exam- inations except when something like this happens. ,Iack knows more for his age than any other boy I know. This is the school building? It doesn't look a bit like I thought it would look. You say you will go to the office and find out where Jack is? Yes, I will wait outside. Jack is in the room at the end of the hall? Thank you so much for your trouble. By the way, might I ask what your name is? lllr. L--.9 Not frirklr teacher' that did1z'f bass him?

Good- bve. - N 114 THE BEAR A Forest Fire Second Year Prize Earl Nowis To my mind, no scene is more wonderfully impressive and magnihcent tl1an a forest hre by night. During two long months no rain had fallen, and fires were continually breaking out, both in forests and prairie land, keeping the inhabitants in constant terror. One dark night, when the air was unusually heavy with smoke, we were driving late, along a rugged country road. Flames were shooting here and there all about us, working and curling with portentous alacrity. Beyond, over a hill, was reflected a dull, increasing glow. As we approached, the light became stronger, serving to deepen the inky blackness of the heavens. Round- ing the base of the burning acclivity, we stopped to behold the unique scene before us. At our left, a swift stream rushed down a deep ravine, turned to go under the wagon bridge ahead, then skirted the steep hill at the right, and raced over a boiling cataract some distance below. The ire on the hillside was rapidly spreading. The bed of dry leaves and needles afforded an excellent kindling for the Flames, For some time the very dense foliage kept the contlagration partly hidden, but the deep, even glare, and the steady, increasing roar showed that it was gaining a sure, irre- sistible power. Then the flames ran up a young pine and instantly fell back from their green reception. After two or three attempts, however, they succeeded and left the fresh, verdant tree a blackened, smoking memory. Soon, larger trees were caught, and the volumes of flame, bursting through the leafy canopy, lighting the heavens with a fierce, sudden blaze, made a tre- mendous roaring, like the distant booming of a thousand cannon. It raced with terrible celerity along the tree tops until worn out by the swiftness of its own course. By this time the bursts of flame dotting the hillside cast a lurid light upon the surrounding country, while the intense smoke and deaf- ening roar were becoming fearful. Of a sudden, a gigantic beech, burned through at the base, toppled over and went crashing down the hillside. Others joined themselves to it, and together they tore downwards-a fiery mass, like some great power designed for evil: but its career was destined to be short, for a mighty leap carried it into the foaming current, where it was received with an angry hissg the burn- ing bulk choked the stream for an instantg then, the rushing torrent piled up behind it, gathering strength, tore the tower of Ere loose, and sent it speeding down until it fell apart to be immersed, and a long line of smoking, steam- ing vapor followed the tossing timbers in their whirling revolutions. Now the hillside was a solid sheet of flame. The frequent crashing of large trees, the dense clouds of rolling smoke, the awful fury of the conflagration, produced a sight so magnificent, an obscurity so impenetrable, a chaos so wild, that an overpowering awe took possession of one at the wonderful display of might by the hand of the Almighty. EVANSTON ACADEMY 115 An Exciting Ride Fira! Year Prisz' Sf01'y. Myrtle Ell1fI'j' You have all read Ernest Seton-Thompson's Pacing Mustang, and there- fore know what wild, almost uncontrollable creatures the little racers of the plains are. On our ranch in Southern Colorado there are three of these wild ponies. In the early spring of '07 a cowboy of ours caught one of these Heet, im- patient steeds, and by summer time had tamed it. I was skillful enough to ride even this swift horse. So impatient and unmanageable was my mus- tang that I called him Impatience. One of our ranchmen, a Harvard graduate, was much interested in the vegetation of the mountains. Often after his work was done we saddled our horses and went on nature-hunting expeditions, and many and wonderful were the large and small mountain plants that we found in crevices and caves, on over-hanging ledges and rocks, and on the sides of that beautiful and mighty mountain, Blanca Peak. The sun rose bright and merry one Wednesday morning in the latter part of June. About ten o'clock I saddled Impatience, hung my botanist's box to his saddle, mounted, and dashed away. I was going in search of a flower which, I had heard, grew in a cave near a certain turn in the trail, which runs zig-zag up the Peak. By dint of much persuasion and extreme tightening on the reins I man- aged, by the time we got to the foot of the mountain, to reduce my im- patient bearer to a very fast walk. We began to ascend the mountaing and after an hour and a half of rather dangerous climbing. for Impatience was growing extremely skittish, we rounded a projecting slab of rock and approached the cave. After firmly tethering Impatience near the mouth, I took the box and started to enter the cave. I did not do so, however, for just then Impa- tience gave a snort and began to paw the ground, or rather rock. I looked up at him and saw that he was watching something in the sky. Glancing in tl1e way his position seemed to indicate, I discovered that the western heavens were shrouded in ominous black clouds. Hastily turning, I entered the cave, after ten minutes of hurried search I found the tiny white-flowered plant for which I had made that journey, and condemned it to my box. As I came to the entrance of the cave, a faint, yet distinct rumble of thunder reached my earsg also those of Impatience, for he commenced to prance like a mechanical jumping jack. Running forward, I grasped the briddle and subdued him enough to fasten my box to the saddle. Then, fearing that he would jump over the edge of the trail in his wild maneuvers, I started down, drawing him after me by the bridle. As soon as I had made sure that we were not going to be a rolling stone down the side of the mountain, I jumped into the saddle and we started on our way towards home. We had not gone downward more than fifty feet when suddenly, coming toward us, there rounded a turn in the trail-a burro. Now if there was anything lmpatience hated, it was one of those patient, plodding, thick- skinned animals. So that, when Impatience saw this little beast, he gave such a snort of rage that the hills actually rang with the noise. The little burro started to one side of the trail, and before I could draw a breath or gain my composure at being so suddenly startled after the quiet, we fairly Flew past the inoffensive little burro and raced onward. Past projecting rocks and mountain-brush we went: under over-hanging ledg-:s and past tourists who hurriedly drew aside and whose burros only seemed to incite impatience the more, we raced: and suddenly my heart seemed almost to stop beating. VVe had reached the tiny canyon. to cross 116 THE BEAR which a bridge had been placed about fifteen yards farther down the trail. This little gorge was only about fourteen feet wide, still, I did not wish to risk the possibility of crossing safely through the airg so I tried to pull Impatience sharply in, but to no avail. He only paused a moment to gather strength for the leap, then we shot through the air like a ball from a cannon's mouth. To you who have never crossed an abyss on a mad horseis back, let me say that those few seconds of suspense, when you know not if the next moment you will be dashed to pieces on the rocks below, or whether you will land safely on the opposite bank, are awful in their intenseness. Thoughts of my father and mother at home. ignorant of the misery I was then enduring, flashed into my mind as we skimmed through the air. Then the next moment with a slight thud we struck the opposite side of the canyon, Saved! No trying to stop my wild steed now, for with a plunge, he dashed onward, and I could do nothing but bend my head against the rush of wind our terrific pace aroused. Suddenly with a bound we struck level ground, and now Impatience was free to race as he pleased, for nothing obstructed his way. On and on we raced, the pace ever growing faster and faster, till I thought nothing less than a miracle could possibly save us from destruction. As we drew near to the herds of cattle that roam the plains day and night, they drew aside to let us pass. We passed the boundary of our own ranch, and I thought that maybe Impatience would become less mad at seeing familiar surroundings. But I was soon to be undeceived. We passed some of the ranchmen, who, when they saw us, tried to catch Impatience with their lariats. They did not succeed, however, and onward we sped, every minute nearing the ranch- house. We passed the house and dashed toward the stables where I usually dis- mounted. Then, without giving me time to prepare for such a sudden and unex- pected movement, Impatience stopped so shortly that I was almost sent over his head, while the shock made me pull till he sat on his haunches with the strain: I lost. altogether, my foothold on one of the stirrups. But, except for his labored breathing, the quivering of the flesh on his Hanks, and the foam that covered his body, he would never have been thought to have just Hnished a most mad and dangerous race, down Blanca Peak, and over the plains for at least twenty miles.

EVANSTOX ACADEMY 117 Sunset on the snows Tl1e Snows, in this case, means the upper Himalayan mountains in the north of India, from which the snow never melts. From the summit of one of the lower Himalayas a fine picture is seen. First, the lower mountains covered with verdureg then tl1e higher peaks covered with snow, and, finally, those in the far distance disappear in the horizon. Nundi Devi, a great loaf- like mountain, is to the right, other smaller mountains, all of which are snow-covered, stretch to the east and west, as far as the eye can see. lt is the sunset hour, the snow is everywhere tinged a bright red, the clouds are of the same bright hue, with here and there a darker 0116 with an edge of silver lining. As the sun sinks lower, the red gradually becomes paler, and the hills are this time a delicate pink--even the tiny, fleeey clouds which float over them are of the same soft shade. Then gradually the pink is mingled with blue, making a gorgeous purple, which dyes not only the snow and clouds, but also the sky. The purple gradually fades into a soft shade of blue, the blue in turn fades slowly into the darkness. Tl1e hour is over, the splendor departed, but one who has seen the sun setting on the everlasting snows will say that it is 0116 of the most wonderful sights in the world. Mary Butcher Turkey for Three My grandmother is one of those hospitable women whom one meets in the sunny South. Her home is a large plantation, surrounded by scenery that is picturesque, and it has conveniences that are conducive to ease and comfort. lt is just the place where old and young delight in spending a vacation. lt was last summer that she invited her three youngest granddaughters to visit her. Their going was a source of delight to each one. In planning for the first Sunday dinner after their arrival, she asked the children what special dishes they each liked. Elizabeth came from Boston, where the streets are narrow and crooked and run all sorts of ways and have all kinds of names, but the people who live there think they have the best city in the world and would not live any- where else. Wlien Grandmother asked Elizabeth what she would like for dinner, the little girl, wishing to be very polite, said: 'Tm sure whatever you have will be nice, but I think tuhkey would taste good. Now, Boston turkeys have necks and wings and drumsticks and hearts and wishbones, but they don't have any ris in them. Iean's home is in Chicago, where the streets are wide and the buildings high and everything very new, and where the wind blows cold from the lake and everyone coughs and sneezes, but the people are sure that they have the finest city in the world. Jean, in reply to grandmother's question, said: Oh, I like anything except fish, but we like tm'-1'-1'-1'-1'--rky in Chicago. Now, you see Chicago turkeys make up for what the Boston turkeys lack. The western birds have not only 11ecks, wings, drumsticks, hearts and wishbones, but ever so many r's, which roll and tumble whenever you speak their name. Dorothy lives in New York, where some of the streets are narrow, but most of them broad and straight, and where the people live closely packed into high apartment houses, and they all know there is no other city in the world like theirs. Wlien Dorothy heard the question, she answered quickly: 'fWl1y, it would be so lovely, I think, to have a to1'leey. L-h e. .eeaejf'HE BEAR S Elizabeth and Jean looked surprised and almost frightened, They were ac- quainted with turkeys with and without r's, but they had never before heard of one with an extra i. You see, New York turkeys have necks and wings and drumsticks and hearts and wishbones, and, besides all else, they have three eyes! Two in their heads and one in their names! What was grandmother to do? Must she send away for three different birds? She decided to serve the same Sunday dinner she had ordered. On Sunday, when Norah brought in on a huge platter a great, brown, fat, steaming bird, the little girls all cried out at once: Elizabeth: Oh, here comes the tulzleeyf' Jean: Oh, here comes the tu1'-1'-r-r-1'-rkey!

Hyde gevgrlvsroiv .4gADE.r1V 119 Heinzmanis Mistake Not long ago, if you had occupied the position of Socrates or some other one of those ancients on top of the lockers, you might have witnessed an interesting little drama. Coming out of chapel, one of the girls was accosted by a short, red-faced little fellow, whose direct descent from the land of beer and pretzels could be doubted by none. Were you going to der class social tomorrow, Mees Ware?', he asked with a good-natured grin. Oh, I hadn't thought about going, replied the girl doubtfully. I don't believe I will. 'tYou ought to go yet, urged the amiable Mr. Heinzman. There was going to be a fine time. Edith VVare hesitated, but the young man was so persistent in his praise of the class social that at last she said that she Hguessed she'd go. With a still broader grin and a polite Thank you, the German left her, Edith laughed as she turned to a friend. I guess l'm in for it, said sheg but then, he's harmless and rather amusing, too. The next evening at the social Heinzman stopped to talk with a young man who was evidently Ustagging it.'l uWhere is your girl, Mr. Spalding? Did you not ask Miss Ware, like I suggest? queried the German. Why, she said-you chump! She said she was going with you l Me? gasped Heinzman. l'Yes, yo? retorted Spalding rather erustily. Why, isn't she here? Didn't you ring her ? Aber, nein! I not take her, I not even ask her. She say she was going mit me? I ask if she is going to der social yet, and she tink I ask her to go init 141051 Ilgo, ,nog I got one girl already. I don't want two girl. Ach, wiat sha o? Spalding grinned and shrugged his shouldersg the poor fellow's dismay was certainly comical to see. You go take her, suggested the German, suddenly brightening up. You haf no girl. Not much, replied Spalding, with an emphatic shake of his head. She turned me down once, and I'm not going to ask her again. It's up to you, old man. You'd better hurry up, too, she'll be getting impatient. Heiiizman groaned. 'fBut how can I? Mine other girl-what vill she tink? Oh, you'll just have to explain it all to her, I supposef, replied Spalding blandly. Who is your other girl, anyway-Miss Barry? Here she comes now, go and make your explanations, and I'll take care of her while you go after Miss VVare. Seeing that there was no other way out of it, Heinzman went to meet Miss Barry with an expression on his face like that of a martyred saint. He got through the evening well enough, however, for, although both of the girls were rather cold in their manner of receiving his explanations, they could not help seeing the -amusing side of the situation. But Heinzman could not let it pass so easily. 'Alt was dreadful, he re- marked to Spalding the next day. Now, Mees Barry vill always tink I am nothings but a silly little Dutchman just because-ach, I will never, never again ask a girl if she is going any place l 120 ATHE BEQR N A From The Campus Fountain CScene: Opposite University Hall, the Campus Fountain spouting, gurgling, and splutteringj Noon, by the University Clock. CThat clock is a dear! She knows I am head over heels in love with her, and she is so very bashful that she holds her hands in front of her face all day long.D Noon, by the hurrying groups of young people, some laughing and chattering, some with their noses buried deep in books, and all on their way somewhere. I wonder where? l am afraid curiosity is my besetting sing but I am permitted to see very little of the world for all the services l render to the public. But I do see some very interesting things nevertheless. Here I stay, quenching the thirst of people, horses, and dogs alike this sultry noontide. And small thanks do I get for my pains. Here they will find the best, most refreshing beverage they have had for many a day. Take notice, my good people. Here is something for noth- ing. Here comes a group of boys from a building in front of me, which, as far as I can make out from the people issuing from its doors, must be some sort of an asylum. I am sure I- donlt see why they don't lock them up. From the scraps of conversation which reach my ears, some of them seem to be greatly afliicted. Only just now some healthy looking girls came up laughing and talking. One said, Oh, I am just dying for a drink of water, and another answered, We are all nearly dead. Whereupon they drank and ran off. I am sure they did not look at all as if they were dying. The building in front of me is not the only one which arouses my curiosity. COh, my besetting sinll There is another, to the right and a little to the back, where I think they must keep the most serious cases, for the inmates are continually raving. Almost any day in the year hideous noises can be heard from that directiong and they seem to need fresh air, for they insist on screaming out of the windows, This is, indeed, a queer place. Everyone carries books. I believe they try to teach, inside of those buildings, but from what I hear, the teachers must be rather insane themselves. Of course, that is only the students, opinion, told in private over my cup. But here comes the familiar figure of the cam- pus policeman. Yes, and Joe with him. Oh! how I loathe the sight of that man! Once a year he comes and stops up my nose with clay, so that I cannot say a single word all winter. I cease to soliloquize and my peaceful waters cease to How into Lake Atwell. CLake Atwell is the large body of water in the rear.D Joe has gone, hasn't he? I am so relieved.

VVhat stupid creatures men are! They don't seem to have the slightest idea about the eternal fitness of things. Fancy putting a bear 011 the top of a building. Why didn't they put a bird, that would have been more natural. Bears never climb to the tops of buildings. I suppose some nature taklr is responsible for this. Strange what ludicrous ideas some people have about art. True art is natural, and the man who is responsible for putting me here has no more idea of genuine art than the man in the moon. Thus the bear mused until he fell asleep. He must have slept for some time, for he was still dreaming when a num- ber of young men and women came down the street at 8 o'clock the following morning. They saw him and, giving a shout,fthey roused him from his slumber. He gazed around, and wonder was expressed in every line of his face. VVhat does this mean? he asked, and well he might, for a perfect stream of young men and women were coming down the street and entering the building on which he was standing. Presently all was serene without, then, from the noises he heard within, it did not take Mr. Bruin long to dis- cover that the building on which he was placed was a large school, where young people were prepared for business and for professions. This put him in a serious frame of mind. He forgot all about his native mountains with their snowy peaks, he forgot all about the incongruity of a bear on a build- ing, his thoughts were on the young people below. Well, he said, I begin to see why I have been put here. I misjudged those men last night. They were actuated by wise motives. They knew that in a school of this kind char- acters are formed and destinies determined, and it is of the utmost importance that some one should watch over these young people during their critical ageg therefore, knowing of my sagacityf' here Mr. Bruin's chest expanded a couple of inches, 'fthey have brought me from my mountain home to be the guardian of these young lives. Henceforth my business will be to lure them on to high attainments and noble achievements. How fortunate that they put me up here! My position will serve a double purpose. Primarily it will give me an excellent vantage point. From here I can see all that occurs around the school. Then, and perhaps this ought to be put first, when it is known that I am here, all will look up to see me, and that will cultivate the habit of look- ing up. The lives of men and women always follow the look. Just so long as the drunkard exposes his nose to the fumes of the bar-room and his eyes to the shining row of black bottles, he will forever remain a drunkard. Just so long as the licentious person chooses to listen to impure stories and harbor vile thoughts, he will forever remain a libertine. Just so long as the avaricious worldling thinks only of money and money-getting, his whole life will grow gnarled and stunted into the shape of a dollar sign. Now, if I can only help these young people to cultivate the habit of looking up, I shall, to a certain extent, help to make their lives what they ought to be, a constant pressing upward after purity and holiness. The story of how the bear has succeeded in his efforts is too long to tell. Suffice it to say, that from the building over which he stands guard have gone forth bishops, judges, doctors, lawyers, engineers, school teachers, mission- aries, and college presidents, all of whom have brought honor to their pro- fessions. In their prosperity they have not forgotten their benefactor, the bear. VVhile his comrades in the forest have long since dropped into oblivion, he lives on in the hearts of those whom he has helped. He enjoys an almost universal reputation, for, in the dark places of Africa, the jungles of India, the frozen north, and the tropical south. his '4Boys and Girls, as he loves to call them, are to be found working in the interests of civilization and right- eousness. D. H. Fleet g 7 i V i filif A A D E M M ri ,YW V 123 An O1-deal One pleasant afternoon, not long ago, I was seated in the quiet of my study gazing out upon the placid waters of Lake Michigan. The surface was studded here and there with snowy isletsg the long, smooth swells swashed lazily against the pure white of the ice-banks along the shore. I was suddenly awakened from my dreamy meditations by the thought that I had an appoint- ment with a dentist at 3 o'elock. I looked at my watch and found that I had just ten minutes in which to get ready and walk to the dentist's office, several blocks away. The dread of the coming ordeal drove all other thoughts from my mind. On arriving at my destination, I was at once placed in the soft, yielding embrace of a large chair and then titled back into that helpless position so well known to those unfortunate enough to visit a dentist. For a wonder, I was left for some time undisturbed and had dropped into one of those drowsy afternoon naps in which I could faintly hear talk of canals, dams, fillings, roots, cement, steps and numerous other structures, and of tools and materials, which finally shaped themselves into a finished bridge, surmounted with a golden crown, with an express train tearing across it at top speed. I was rudely awakened with a start, to find that the dental artist had unceremoniously inserted into my mouth a veritable saw-mill, running at full blast. My former experience came back with a flash. I once more heard all the discordant noises and jars-and felt them, too-all the machinery was there, the same old clattering belts, the buzzing wheels, and all the saws, from the little wheezing knot-saw to the great circular, which cuts the logs into lumber. Now and then this saw would strike a knot or some other obstruc- tion, and the jar that followed would dislodge the ancient dust and cobwebs from the framework overhead. The only satisfaction I got from the whole operation was in the thought that perhaps it might jar some of the cobwebs out of my upper story. At last the mill shut down and I began to entertain fond hopes that it was 6'quitting time, when suddenly my friend the dentist set the trip-hammer at work. I did not ask, but I assumed, now that the lumber was cut, he had decided to drive the piling for the bridge. Much as I disliked this part of the work, I was nevertheless consoled by the in- formation that the hammer was of the latest improved typeg and I had no doubt it was doing good work. After the piling was completed, I suppose the different parts had to be assembled and riveted into one complete wholeg at any rate, the next working tool. of which I have a very clear recollection, was the compressed air riveter. This little machine worked to perfection: it kept up a elatter that would put a boiler shop to shame. Now followed the finishing touches-a few well-directed blows with a twenty-pound sledge ham- mer, to test the workg then a little sandpapering and polishingg finally, the temporary dam was torn out, and the work given a last mopping and clean- ing. I was now politely dismissed, with a pleasing invitation to call again at an early date for needed repairs to certain former work. 124 THE BEAR Napoleon, Before and After Napoleon, before, was a grand old bird. VVith big red coiub and long, graceful, brilliantly colored tail, he strutted aliout his realm with the con- scious air of a handsome fop and a yet-to-be-defeated monarch. The hens adored hinig the roosters who were wise enough to acknowledge him lord basked in his graces. He had conquered every pretender who dared assume the dignity of cock-of-the-walkl' in his domain-twice this haughty tyrant had put the traitor to death. He was kind and considerate, however, to his faithful subjects: he scared off the hawks, chased big, fat grasshoppers and scratched for grubs for the members of his harem, also, whenever he dis- covered an extra large amount of grain or table scrapiugs, he generously sum- moned his entire following, knights and ladies, to feast. But this did not last always, one day a big. battle-scarred stranger came to his barnyard. That day proved to be Napoleonls WZlt61'lOO. Thereafter he did not mingle with his former subjects. VVhen Welliiigtoii scratched in the front yard, he scratched in the back yard, and vice versa. He roosted high in the barn instead of in the chicken coop, and associated with a lame hen, who found it difficult to hold her own with her more fortunate sisters. In appearance Napoleon was not his former self, his big, red comb, the pride of his heart, was torn to shreds, one eye was gone, his head was swollen and bruised, his neck feathers were scantyg nothing was left of his long, sweeping tail but a sprout or two, bristling defiance to further depredation. Shorn of power, despoiled of beauty, his spirit was broken. Oh, Tchabod! Ichabodl HPitying tears, not scorn and wrath Bent his fall. C. DV. IfV00d1'uff A Narrow Escape It was the day before Christmas. The afternoon was clear and bright- no fog, no mist, nothing but biting, piping cold to make the blood dance to. On the crowded platform of an elevated station a woman was leaning against the railing. She was rather large and much inclined to the dumpling shape, hut there never was a face pleasanter than hers-all smiles and dimples. She had evidently been shopping, for she was loaded down with packages of various shapes and sizes. Soon the train pulled up, and there was a great rush. In the hurry and bustle of boarding the train she lost one of the packages. After she was seated and all her bundles were fixed about her, she noticed that one was gone and on determining which one it was, she exclaimed happily, '4My! but that was a narrow escape! The gentle- man seated next to her looked at her curiously and asked what the escape was. Vv'hy, she said, 'II lost the Christmas present I was going to give 1ny husband. It was a box of cigars, and I loathe cigarsly' Louise M. Frost. g 151f,1.ys'1'o.v .A1f.4l2LE.l'1il' g gizs The Priest of Conway All day long Hunrad and Mortimer had tramped through the wooded slopes that skirted the banks of the river Conway. Since they had started from their camp that was situated close by the roaring falls, no word haf: been spoken. On, on, they tramped, until, just as the shades of evening were beginning to gather. they emerged from the woods. and found them- selves on the bleak and trceless hills of the Penmaenbach. Both stood still. Behind them were the woods, to the right and left stretched barren hills: in front of them, at the bottom of the hills, lay the Town of Conway surrounded with massive walls and rounded towers. But their thoughts were not on these things. Their surroundings neither charmed nor fright- ened them. Both were listening earnestly. Presently Hunrad spoke, Surely this is the place. Did not the stranger tell ns that he lived on the hills over-looking the Conway? Yet l hear no one, nor see any sign of a dwell- ing. Slowly and silently they resumed their march. Up and down, from peak to peak, they pursued their quest. Night had now fallen, the moon was obscured, and the only guide the travelers had was the beaten track of the mountain sheep. Suddenly they were startled by an unusual noise, and the moon, coming out from behind the cloud that had veiled her face, revealed to them a strange sight. A few yards away, partly hidden by a huge rock, was an aged man. whose long flowing heard almost reached the ground. He was offering up a sacrifice and chanting in an unknown tongue. Hunrad clutched Mortimer by the arm, lt is he! he said. It is he. This is the one who preacheth strange doctrines and stirreth the people to arms. By the soul of l-lenjist he shall not trouble us henceforthg ere tomorrow's sun descends l will drink mead out of his skull in the Saxon camp. Silently he drew his sword, and crept stealthily towards the place where the man with the long beard was invoking the aid of the gods. His arms were stretched toward the heavens. and the light of the moon caused his shadow, in the form of a cross, to fall behind him. Hunrad was now within a few feet of where he stood, but so engrossed was the priest in his devotions that he did not hear the approach of his enemy. Slowly the Saxon raised himself from his crouching position, and lifted his sword to strike. Swiftly the blow descendedg but ere the sword reached the body of the priest Hunrad felt an icy ehillness steal o'er his body. and his arm became rigid. There he stood, paralyzed, unable to retreat or advance. Mortimer, seeing what had happened, immediately fled. The priest finished his chanting, then turned, and, fastening his piercing eyes on the paralyzed warrior, said, Stranger, dids't thou think to slay me? Knowest thou not that the gods dwell in me, and by their power l am kept from harm. They have preserved me to this day that l might free my country from the hand of the oporessor. For many years ye have driven us back from the fertile plains. till today our only home is in these mountain fastnesses of Cymry. And now ye seek this! But here we stand, here shall thine armies be de- feated. Conway's streams shall be crimson with the blood of thy kinsmen, thou shalt see it, and not be able to help. Then shall thy flesh be given to the birds, and thy spirit forever shall rove these bleak mountains and shall not find rest. My work is finished, I go. So saying, he immediately vanished from sight. The next day, strange sights were seen by Hunrad. Below, he saw two armiesadvancing to meet each other. By the standards he recognized one as his own. They met, and the men of Hunrad fought bravelv, and gradually forced their antagonists back to the river. Bravely they fought, slowly the brave defenders were forced backwards. Now they are in the river: now they are forced across, and Hunrad's heart leaped as- he saw his men enter the river to cross to the other side. 'tAh, he said, Thor is greater than the gods of Cymrv. My soldiers will soon cut them to pieces, then come to deliver me. But he soon ceased murmuring to him- 126 THE BEAR self, and a great fear gripped his heart, for rushing down from the hill behind his men he saw a companv of giants led by an aged man with a Howing beard. His men were caught in a trap. They fought valiantly, but to no use. They were cut down, and Conway's stream was dyed with their blood. Soon none were left. The armies of the enemy withdrew to the town and Hunrad was left to die the slow death of starvation. Today, strange sounds are heard on the Penrnaenbach. The spirit of Hunrad roams those barren hills, and strange noises, like the noise of a fierce battle, break the stillness of the night. But Hunrad's power is broken. The sons of Cymry are free. The heel of the oppressor no longer treads her valleys, and year after year, to commemorate this freedom, the shrine of the aged man with the flowing beard is covered with flowers, and people worship there. D. H. Fleet. Old Henry Himself.. The students of a small college in Indiana were annoyed by two chickens, belonging to the President, which had taken their abode in a large tree behind the main college building. Two of the boys had been promised by their landlady that if they would catch the chickens she would cook them. Thereupon the boys started out one Saturday night to catch the chickens. The tree where the chickens were roosting was a large maple, some forty feet high, with large branches extending out on either side, and it was with some difficulty that one of the boys climbed it. The other one remained at the foot to get the chickens when they were handed down. The boy in the tree finally succeeded i11 catching them and as he handed down the first one he said in solemn tones, Here is old Henry, himself, referring to the President. Then handing down the second one, Here is Aunt Belindyf' he said, having in mind his English teacher. On descending from the tree he found out that he had not given the chickens to his friend. As someone was coming along at the time his friend stepped back and the chickens had been given to the stranger. Thinking it was one of the students, they determined to dismiss the circum- stance from their minds. The next afternoon the two boys went to the President's home to see him on business. He invited them to take dinner with him, but as they had already been to dinner they declined. Since he insisted so much they at last consented to do so. Soon they were seated at the table. VVhen the President began to carve the chickens he said, 'KNOW boys, we'll have a piece of old Henry himself. Erma M rMa1'11s. EVAXSTO.Y ACADEMY 127 An obstinate Old Hen Ezra Higgins entered and banged the door. That abominable old hen! he exploded. Quiet, sympathetic Mrs. Higgins looked up, meekly, from her ironing-board, and her wrathy husband continued: You might expect even a hen, if she were obstinate, to carry out her obstinacy in one direc- tion, and not be so contemptibly changeable. Here, awhile back, this hen wanted to sit. NVell, according to quotations and prophecies, ordinary poul- try isn't going to bring much this season, so I decided I wouldn't set her. Besides, I figured that her desires would last till I could get a sitting of choice eggs from the city-for there is some money in fancy stock. Well, her desires lasted all right, but I couldn't get the eggs. This disappointed meg and then, it was so exasperating to see that persevering old idiot sit there, day and night, right in my way at the edge of the straw stack, keeping a corn cob and two stones warm! I just made up my mind that I would change her inclinations. Water sometimes cures them, you know, so I ducked her in the rain barrel several times a day for a few days, but that didn't work, then I kicked up her nest, but she made another right under old Bill's manger. Of course, I pulled her out of there in a hurry, and actually tied her up to a post where there was nothing but hard, bare ground around her. XVell, sit she would, so she scratched out a nest, and settled herself in the sand. just about that time, I heard from the choice eggs, so I kind o' took mercy on the old lady and let her go free. Back she went to the straw stack, and sat on a rotten egg for two days. Then she quit. The next thing I knew, she was clucking around with a couple of stray goslingsg and that is just what spoiled her. Yesterday the eggs came, and I paid five dollars for them. Last night I made a dandy nest, high and dry, in the hen house: I spread the thirteen eggs all out nice and attractive-like in the clean straw, caught the old hen, and set her down, comfortably, on the nest. Now what do you suppose I found this morning? Every last one of those rare eggs stamped to a froth, and that perverse old fool, standing right up straight in the middle of the wrecklu As Mr Higgins reached this climax, he made for the door, muttering something about an axe and a hen's head. The door banged again, leaving quiet. sympathetic Mrs. Higgins, wearing an amused smile, and hardly knowing whether her sympathies were more with her irritated husband or with the oltstinate but ill-fated old hen. W. IV. Long. A Story Without a Name One night a Swedish ship was sailing on the Baltic Sea. The sky was clear and fair, the glittering surface of small waves dancing in the moonlight looked like a beautiful silver robe embroidered with diamonds. Suddenly the wind ceased to breathe: the sea grew calmg all the sailsihung lazily awaiting the moment when a breeze should ill them again, the crew shared the rest of the so-often restless sea. Patiently awaiting thus, we were astonished to see another ship rapidly approaching with full sails in this calm night, while we moved not an inch. I myself ran down to inform the captain about the phenomenon. '4Captain, I cried. 'fcome up on deck! Quick! Up he came, and beheld at once the strange ship. As around him we gathered, HVVhat is it?'l UWhat can it be? we eagerly cried. He shook his head as he murmured, f'It is fast coming tus wavfl l2Ei gg g g g pg THE BE,-IR NVQ gazed in astonishment. Yes, it came closer and closer. In the moon- light we could now see its crew. Their captain stood next to the foremastg his eyes were frightful to behold, his hair was snow white, his body bent forward with age, and his clothes were worn and ragged. The other men of the crew looked old and worn, as with struggles and horrors. As the ship came very near, we noticed something that terrified us, we could not move nor cry for help, only stare at the awful sight: two demons, fishlike, of frightful appearance, were hitched to the ship at the prow, and, despite the calm in which we lay, were pulling it at a supernatural speed. As the strange vessel went by us its captain pointed eastward, and, turning to us, he cried out: t'Be glad and satisfied that you can happily await the rising sun. I must ever dwell at sea in the shade of night, even as long as the human race is in existence .... I am thc wild Cl'l'CCllI1.S' of them that s1c'cp. ' Thus he spake, and as the ship sped onward, We gazed after it until it could no longer be seen. Even while we looked the morning broke, the sun rose, a breeze filled the sails, and each man of us went to his post. B. Bt'llXUll. . . ... Jim-Slun In response to the urgent invitation of a friend, I once visited him for a week at his summer home in Canada. The cottage was pleasantly situated on a beautiful little lake, where the fishing and swimming were unusually good. The second morning we set out to get some of the fine black bass which I had heard so much about. After paddling about half a mile we fell in with an old Indian, who directed us to a hole,'l which he said would yield us all we wanted. His prophecy was correct, and in an hour we had more than we could use. Then we started for a little pleasure trip. The lake was at least five miles long and three miles wide at the widest point. The scenery was magnificent. A light south breeze stirred the water into little wavelets, which rippled merrily aliout the bow of the canoe. The trees were nearly all ever- greens, and the fragrance from the pine needles was most delicious. The lake was dotted with Indians fishing from their canoes, many of whom we passed within speaking distance. At these times my friend always said Bezhoo, and the Indians responded likewise. This I took to be their way of saying How do you do?l' Soon we ascended a small trout stream. The trees joined overhead, nearly shutting out the sunlight. The restless trout were now and again visible, darting to and fro in the icy water. Presently l spied, a short way up, a girl casting from a canoe. Coming nearer, I saw that the was very beautiful, her features were perfect and I certainly had never seen a prettier Indian. My friend then said, You must salute this girl, because these Indians would feel offended if we didn't speak to them. When we passed some out on the lake I said, 'Bezhoof but to a woman vou must say 'jim- shinf 1' Accordingly, when we passed the girl, I said Jim-shin. A blush overspread her pretty face, and she smiled bewitchingly. Immediately I heard a crackling of brush on the shore, and an old squaw came running out, shaking her fist and pouring forth a torrent of words. Then she picked up a stick and threw at us. She started to jabber again, and then more sticks. I was thoroughly bewildered, and, looking at my friend to see what he made of it, I found him convulsed with laughter. One well-aimed throw sent a stick into the canoe, and then I put the boat about and started down stream. VVhen we reached the lake and my friend had recovered himself, I demanded an explanation. f'XVell,', said he, please forgive me, but I could not help taking advantage of you that time. 'Jim-shin' means 'kiss me.' , l l'l.X'S l'O.X' .lC'.1l2I1l1 1 Hatflelcl House Evanston Academy Dormitory for Boys l7111111111'11' 19116 111111Q1- Rl:1Q1111' ........,,.............,, 3111. Il. C.

A band of night hawks, headed by George Orlady, make many innocent sleeping individuals have bad dreams by dumping them from their nice warm beds to the cold, hard floor. March 5, The doorbell takes a notion to ring about 2 a. in. March 7. All the fellows quietly sneak into BlCfilli1'C'S room while he is asleep and try to dump him, but the combined forces of all fail to budge the bed. and lfat sleeps peacefully on. March S. Ott is initiated. Tondevold's artistic free-hand drawing on Ott's back with stove polish is the feature of the evening. March 17. Larson is down to breakfast on time. Happenings at the Breakfast Table Almost any Morning Truscott, who was always the first one down, is talking conndently to XYarren. and says: Say. XVZIITCII. do I need a shave so very bad? Yes! T know I haven't shaved since yesterday, but don't you think I could go without shaving until tonight? Kittleman, half asleep, lamenting because it is three whole days before he may go home and see f'Graee, Say, if lid known we were going to have pancakes this morning I would have been in bed yet. ltls a bloom- in' shame we cant'- MeGuire's gentle voice from the other end of the table, On the job there, Andy, slip us some bread. Chief, arousing from a deep sleep-UAre there any extra bananas over there? Chief has a fond longing for bananas. If ever he found out beforehand that there would be bananas for breakfast, he would always come down early and eat a few dozen. Mr. Moulton, who has been frightening everybody who comes in late by feeling for his watch, takes on that faraway look, and says, with his beautiful soft voice-'fSay, fellows, isn't it a shame we don't get pie for breakfast? y, ,M . E VA X S 'I' O .Y A C A D E M Y 131 Thompson, coming in fourteen minutes late, rubbing his eyes, upon seein McGuire's beautiful profile- Sa , Fat, wasn't that a each of a - XZ . Y , P Y girl we saw last night? Oh. say, those eyes-man, werent they?' Andy, butting in contemptuously- Say, can't you fellows forget the girls? Keep away from them like I and Mr. Moulton do. Alve has been sneaking around stealing bananas, but is caught by Denton's craft. taught him in the management of his many love affairs. For instance, when he had two girls asked to the banquet, he cleverly worked one off on the Hatfield House party. Denton, however, who is afflicted with the same remorse as he was when he reflected over the wickedness of his telling five or six different girls he loved them best, lets Alve go, but not until he has relieved him of about half a dozen bananas and slipped them into his own pocket. A hot potato goes whirling through the air, hitting Henry behind the ear. and then a general fight ensues. The tight, which is between Henry, Truscott, and Alve Birkeland over which one Miss Laura Kellogg likes the best. is quickly quelled bv the awe-inspiring figure of Mr. Parsons, who has been busy arguing that the point on a proceeding wheel which is on the ground, does not move. Henry- Oh, these pancakes are fierce. VVhyl out in Yakima, where I live, and where many great menu- Denton's voice, breaking in contemptuously- Yakima, where's Ya- kima? Why, Yakima is not in it with Tennessee. McGuire, who is through hrst, immediately grabs all the bananas in sight and bolts for the door, while all save Wall and Birkeland, who have long ago fallen asleep, pursue him. Thompson, at the auction held in Furness' room March 4th- Say, George, you want to be sure and buy that necktie. I will help you wear it out. Reverend Maxy, for a number of nights after his arrival at Hatfield Ilouse. had several bad dreams. He complains that he had the habit of feeling a jar during the night, while he woke up in the morning on the floor with the bed over him. We wonder if the house is haunted. Many of the fellows have been helped by the confidential lectures of Warren upon his favorite subject-the girls. The fellows have vainly sought a cure for VVall's sleeping habit. Tondevold and Kitty meet every once in a while and have confidential talks about their common subject, The Girl I Left Behind Me. VVe would advise Furness to stop fussing the girls around here, as it has been rumored that someone is going to write to Edna,'y for it is a shame to let him be such a lady-killer. Larson has smashed all fussing records. One night he set out about eight o'clock and made seventeen calls on lady friends. He was success- ful, too, for the next morning he came to the breakfast table with seven- teen different girls' pictures, which he displayed to the admiring eyes of Guzman. Tommy, and Rirkeland. Fat McGuire, the would-be Cecil Lean, almost realized his ambitions the other night when he painted up with some rouge, which took him only a few minutes to get on, but many days to wear off. Wanted, by Kittleman, a warehouse, guaranteed burglar and fire proof,.in which to store his letters. Judging from the way he has been receiving letters postmarked Berwyn, the small safe which he bought during the year, must be overflowing. lg wif i -W ! vrvv PT ffl R li T14 .Y 5' 'I' O ,X .
