In pursuit of the first aim-to bring into the school as many as pos- sible--the erection and later enlargement of the barn were secured for the accommodation of those who must drive from remote parts of the district, and varied efforts have been made each year to convey to eighth graders the glad tidings of further educational opportunity ahead with the result that more than eighty-five per cent of the grammar school graduates of this district have entered high school as against an average of less than fifty per cent for the State at large. Our second aim-to broaden the service rendered by the school-has been inspired by a growing belief in the democratic mission of the modern high school. The classical preparatory school of a generation ago was aris- tocratic in that it served only the wealthy and leisure classes and those preparing for the traditional professions, and it was narrow in that its book- learning ministered only to the head, neglecting the body and the heart. It has been our controlling conviction that the modern public high school ought to serve those who will go directly from its portals onto the farm, into the management of a home, or into business life as well as those who may have money, time, inclination and ability for college, and above all, that it must somehow or other, by ministering to the moral needs as well as the physical and intellectual requirements of adolescent boys and girls, transform them into good citizens. The problem of moral education is difficult. Educators agree that formal instruction in ethics does not always function in right conduct. It is a saying that even the devil can quote Scripture. Indirect moral education is found to be most effective. History and literature may be made to contribute ideals and the experience of the scientific laboratory can be managed so as to inspire a respect for truth, but it is in the wise management of the extra-classroom student activities under able adviser- ship and leadership that the most effective moral education is possible-the most effective preparation for right conduct in the various situations and hu- man relationships of life. Education is experience under control. Out of the experiences of the human relationships ofyouth grows the character that determines the individual's conduct in after life. In pursuit of this second aim--to broaden the schoo1's range of service- we have secured considerable expenditures for additional equipment and physical improvement of the school plant. Two more teachers have been added to the corps. The curriculum has been extended by new courses in agriculture, domestic science, and commercial branches. An eight-period day, with complete provision for supervised study in drawing, commercial branches and the sciences, and for extra coaching in English, has replaced the old seven-period program. New sports, including boys' basketball, have been introduced. The boys' basketball teams have won the championship of the county for four consecutive years, and, indeed, have never been defeated, but we prize the sport chiefly for its tendency to generalize athletics. All- little and big-enjoy playing it. Physical culture for those who do not make or aspire to interscholastic teams has been fostered by the encouragement of inter-class matches and by the introduction of handball, which, although not recognized by the county league, is very popular for mere recreation. Extra-classroom student activities are fostered, encouraged, supervised, man- aged, directed and controlled through a definitely planned and responsible system of faculty advisership and leadership co-operating with a student- 7 body organization with its subordinate committees, class-organizations, teams, etc., including the stafi' of the Tomahawk. The largest measure possi- ble of student self-government is accorded these organizations for the sake of the moral value of such experience, and the advisory rather than the super- visory relation of the faculty leader is regarded as being paramount. Our achievement of the third aim-to graduate as many as possible- which is a corollary of the first two, can be expressed in figures. If the pres- ent seniors all reach the goal, ninety-three will have graduated in the past four years as against only seventy-eight in the previous eight years, and in proportion to our average daily attendance of about one hundred, this is two and one-half times as many as have graduated from the average high school in the State at large, according to figures of the State Superintendent's Oiiice. This, in itself, is not essentially laudable if accomplished at a sacrifice of standards, and on this point we fortunately have further evidence. By their fruits shall ye know them. Of the seventy-three who graduated in the classes of '14, '15, and '16, forty-one fa number 25 per cent in excess of even the total number graduating from the average high school of this sizej were inspired with the purpose to go on to normal school or college, as follows: To Arcata 14, to Corvallis 8, to San Jose 6, to Berkeley 5, to Stanford 2, to Davis 2, to San Francisco Normal 1, to Affiliated Colleges 1, to College of Physicians and Surgeons 1, to St. Mary's 1-and all except two of these have made good and reflected high credit upon our school, as official reports in our possession from the several institutions show. President Van Matre says of the fourteen at Arcata Normal, I consider the graduates of Ferndale High School compare favorably with those of other high schools. Some of them have been exceedingly strong. Registrar Tennant of Corvallis, after reporting that the weighted average of the eight from Ferndale runs several per cent above the weighted average for all men students in the institution, says, On this basis you will see that these students have all made excellent records. President Dailey of San jose Normal writes, I am in receipt of your recent letter inquiring in regard to the comparative standing of your gradu- ates and those from other high schools. Then, after saying that he had looked up the records of our six very carefully and found them to be Capital C, he continues, In explanation of my statement I will say that a 'Capital C' has up to the present year represented our highest mark, and it therefore appears that your students have done credit to your high school and have compared very favorably with the graduates of other high schools. And according to the latest oliicial report of the Examiner of Schools of the University of California, Ferndale ranks first in general scholarship aver- age among the high schools of Humboldt County, her efficiency index figure for last year being 39 points above Eureka's, 10 above Fortuna's and 2 above Arcata's. While such have been the aims and achievements of the past four years, and while we are justly proud of our recent alumni, we would fain prolong this article not only to express, but to plead a wish on behalf of the earnest body of undergraduates now in the school, and others to come after, although it will not be the writer's personal privilege to have a part in the fruition of such a wish. It is our sincere wish that the needs and deserts of this worthy body of young people may become so well understood and appreciated in the community that the near future may witness the erection of a bungalow for domestic science and manual training, the enrichment of the curriculum with manual arts and music, and the extension of the community service of the school by regular provision for the encouragement of the Boys' Agricultural Club and the Girls' Home Economics Club. 2 A.

Mascot A frlend to one and all ' ' -14 Senior Pedigree We, the class of 1917 of the Ferndale Union High School, after much research, exploration and study, have traced the course of events to their origin and offer to the succeeding generations the following pedigree of the genii which are now leaving your portals of learning. Looking back through the ages we find chronicled in the Annals of Jove a description of eighteen individuals-twelve girls and six boys-of just such distinguishing traits as our own. He further records, In the year 1917 these people shall visit various lands and climes and each shall enter a new calling and much success shall attend their adventures. We are des- tined to be led by Linus, a beautiful son of Apollo, one of the Great Divinities of Heaven. Characteristics which daily come to light are of the greatest assistance in compiling our Senior Tree. That some of our ancestors were Cave Men and Cliff Dwellers is evident from that touch of barbarism and savagery on the football and basketball fields, which have brought us much prominence in the athletic world. Marks of ancient Rome may be detected in our ability to argue and recite. The orations and debates of Cicero can not equal those of our most worthy classmates. In learning and creation of the beautiful we resemble the Greeks. And like these same people, we have made our fame in dramatics. Our chosen actors and actresses have performed their parts with grace and ease and made themselves at home on the stage. The beauty and grace of our girls would put the goddesses themselves to shame. Our examination papers, especially those of the boys, show the influence of both the Hindoo and the Egyptian scientific principles. The Juniors, however, are a nomadic people, and wander listlessly about the Assembly day after day. We hope that in the course of their development they will lose this tendency. Although we are trying to live like Americans, we still have a cannabalis- tic taste, which at times shows itself. This is the only trait of which we are not proud. Our banquets savor of Homeric Greece, and the gods can well be envious that they do not now live to taste of the dishes which we have prepared in our cooking class. Our gay dancing parties and many successes in social life show indica- tions of French ancestry. . One-eighteenth of us is true Irish, for where else could Collins have gotten the blue in his eyes and his merry, quick wit? Again, about one-third of our industrious class trace their origin to Germany and picturesque Switz- erland. Among these we find our quietest as well as our merriest. Our Scotch element is represented by Pete, whose gruff voice and strong, manly bearing hide from us his true self. One-ninth of our intelligent group claim the Danish flag, and here we find our good cooks and merry brown eyes. Another large portion are Americans-true blue, who trace relatives to Mo- hawk chiefs and days of Bonnie Eloise, as well as the Mayflower. As yet, however, we have not been able to trace the origin of Frenchy's pug and vanishing freckles. As a whole, we, the class of '17, are Romanticists, not content to accept old customs, but ever striving to bring forth that which is new and original. MARY RENNER, '17. 15 Class Will We, the illustrious and mighty class of the year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and seventeen, knowing our days in the Ferndale Union High School are num- bered and being sound of mind and body, do desire to will and bequeath our property in the following manner, to wit: I, Harold Aggeler, do bequeath to the Student Body a life size statue of myself to be placed in some conspicuous part of the building, so that every trembling Fresh- man may gain renewed strength from a glance,at my noble figure. I, Sadie Ambrosini, commonly known as 'Ambrose, will my meek and retiring manner to Ida Montgomery. I, Alice Bessemer, leave my bird-like trills of laughter in sewing, to Ila Kelly, hoping she may find something cheerful in that subject. I, Gladys Bugbee, do solemnly part with my bottle of peroxide willed me last year, hoping that Velda Lund will make as good use of it as I have. I, Cyril Collins, leave several inches of my extreme height to Cyril Ries trusting that he will soon become grown. Q I, Bessie Cook, bequeath my amazingly full and deep contralto voice to Eva jen- mngs. I, Frank Francis, knowing that my time is short and wishing to dispose of my most valuable possession, do bequeath my ability to bluff my teachers to Fritz Haas, but advise him to be very careful in the use of same. I, Sadie French, wish to leave my ability as an amateur actress to Alma Marten- sen, charging her to make good use of said talent. I, Linus Hicks, do leave my stylish and dignified appearance, together with my golashes and bath bun to Earnest Lanini, solemnly requesting him to use all. I, Zoe Kelsey, gladly bequeath my look of complete innocency and meekness to Ross Goble, in the hope that he may derive benefit from same during assembly periods. I, June Meng, hand down to the following generation, my executive ability. To the faculty I leave Robert's Rules of Order, that they may become as proficient in parliamentary law as I am. I, Clinton Morrison, do sadly part with my girlish beauty and worthy manners, bestowing same upon Timothy Canty. I, Ida Oeschger, leave my athletic prowess and my ability to see the bright side of life to Barrett Cook. I, Mary Renner, do will my German ability to Raymond Macken so that he may learn some new German phrases, as his are getting stale. I, Marion Reynolds, bequeath my curls, vanity case and powder puff to Mary Ambrosini. I, Maren Skow, leave my large twinkling eyes to Chubby Erickson, hoping that they will relieve the shade of seriousness which rests upon his face. I, Gertrude Smith, bequeath my studious habits to Bert Kelsey feeling confident that he will benefit by the same. As a class we wish to give the following: lst. To the Juniors, our studiousness, athletic ability, regular attendance, our originality-knowing they are sadly in need of it-and most important of all, the honor of becoming Seniors. Znd. To the Sophomores, our dramatic ability, our love of the dear old F. U. H. S., our sunny corner in the Assembly Hall and all the sweet notes in the desks thereof. 3rd. To the Freshmen, all our old pencils, not exceeding two and one-half in- chesg all our old erasers, blotters and pens. We also wish to leave to the dear little things all cuds of gum we may have left adhering to desks or banisters, knowing that they need something to soothe and calm their young and restless jaws. 4th. To Mr. Grant, our esteemed principal, a life long remembrance of the Class of '17, for we were Freshmen together. Sth. To Miss Clyne, our class adviser, an unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams. No longer need she worry! 6th. To Miss Herdeg, a grave, solemn shorthand class and also an unlimited sup- ply of mirth subsiding glances. 7th, To Miss Moser, a year in which every girl will put away her own things in Domestic Science. 8th, To Miss Portlock, our large collection of songs, hoping that she will enter- tain the Student Body for the coming year. 9th. To Mr. Brown, a patent knocker to help him keep order. Pencils are rather fragile and they have gone up in price. l0th. To Mr. Reiben, our heartiest gratitude and sincere affection. 11th. To the Enterprise, our city paper, we bequeath all amazing knowledge and startling information with which we have furnished our teachers in examinations from time to time, in the hope that the editor will publish same, as we believe a great many of these things have never been heard before and will serve to enlighten the world.

Pair of Queens A warning Room enough for two 22 Junior Chronicles Now it came to pass, on the seventh day of the eighth month in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and sixteen, that twenty-four wise men and women returned to this land after a long journey. And it so happened that they chose one Elbert Kelsey to lead them over the rugged paths. Loie, of the House of Francis, they selected to give him gentle advice lest he err in performing his many tasks. Now there was in this group a certain maiden, Levia by name, third daughter of Bert Lanini. To this damsel they did give their gold and silver lest it be lost or stolen. And straightway they made Doris Mae recorder of all events, so that their posterity might know of their brave deeds. And it came to pass in the second month that a dreadful malady fastened itself upon these people and caused them to act in a ferocious and barbarous manner. Philosophers and wise physicians did examine them and did declare the complaint to be football in the men and basketball in the women, and they did tell the leaders that the disease must be contagious. But it so hap- pened that these wise men could offer no remedy and the teachers of these people awaited the results with fear and trembling. And as they did await the result they saw Leland, the fourth son of Henry Frederick Harbers, suffer severely for this disease, and likewise did Ross, the brother of Raymondg Luther Thomas, of the House of Hansen, and his follower, George, third son of Peter Becker, fell victims and did grow fearless and warlike. And after they did wait ten long weeks their members were restored to them, and lo! none were seriously injured. Likewise it came to pass that one damsel Eva, of the House of Jennings, second daughter of Edward Jennings, was afflicted with the dire disease bas- ketball. Little hope did the elder brothers and sisters have for her recovery, yet after several months she was restored to her normal condition and there was great rejoicing throughout the land. And mark you, these people of Junior Land did send forth their members to act what they were not, in the great play of the Universe, and they did select for slaughter one drama of much fame, The Private Secretary. Lo, the multitude that did witness the play did cry aloud, How splendid and as- tounding this work ye have done! And their heads did swell with one accord at the commendation they did receive. And now it came to pass a dispute arose among the tribes of the different lands. They decreed that their youths should handle sword as well as the pen. In order that the dispute be settled it was determined that the question be debated. Two wise men, Leland, from the House of Harbers, and Elbert Olin, from the House of Kelsey, were selected as representatives of the Junior tribe. ,J And behold they did labor hard, but their minds became weak and tired. The most learned physicians were summoned, but they knew not what to do. The results were awaited with much anxiety, and after several months of strife and turmoil everything was put asunder and these wise men did fully recover. Now, on the eleventh day of the fifth month, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and seventeen, this tribe did hold a great festival and did send invitations to the tribe on the mount above them, and to those of the north, east, south and the west, saying, Come ye, and join in the dance with us. And the guests did come as bidden, and great was their joy when they saw the preparations made for their amusement by the people of Junior Land. Now it so happened that after a year of hard labor the members did cease from their toil and went far and wide that they might enjoy peace and quiet for many days. LEVIA LANINI, 'l8. Z3 Want a Bute?

Dear Qld jack: It's the morning after the Junior ball, so you can imagine how much energy I have left. Do you remember the time we had at the Junior hop last year? Great, wasn't it? Well, it couldn't beat last night. Never saw so many fluffy little girls-sweet enough to squeeze-in all my life. On the square, Jack, old boy, this has been one happy year. Our class has entered into the High School activities with lots of pep and we've done things up brown. Katie has been our president. You remember sweet little Katie? Oh, yes, I should rather say you do. Bob Hadley-a new member of our class- was elected vice-president. Bob's one of the finest chaps you ever knew. They selected me for secretary, as they knew I'd been raised chiefly on cornstarch and fish and was there with the gray matter and bulk. Who do you suppose was sergeant-at-arms? No less than Chubby himself. His sedate and awe-inspiring appearance won the job for him. Edna was elected treasurer because every one wrongfully suspected her of possessing an itching palm. Fritz we seht to represent us on the Executive Committee, as we knew the Student Body money would never tarnish in his hands. Say, old top, you ought to have seen the Sophomore-Freshmen bag con- test. The odds were two to one in favor of the Freshmen, and they got three of the five bags, but not until after a hard struggle. I swallowed more dust and lime on that old basketball court than I thought I could hold. It was cer- tainly a mixture of tongues and nations and a display of legs of all descrip- tions. My most vivid impression of the event was the grit of Willie Sullivan. I can feel him yet. Of course we took an active part in the reception given the Freshmen. We were only allowed to dance until eleven, so made good use of our time. The punch was nectar fit for the gods. And did those little Freshmen imbibe? Well, you should have seen them. A picture for Puck! Katie Casanova was our sole representative in tennis. Although our team was not victorious, we were proud of their work. Our side-partner, joe, is still with us. He, together with Bob, Fritz and Bunt, played on the football team. You can't imagine how mighty they looked strutting around with big block F's on their sweaters. I wish they'd award F's for rooting, for that's the only way I'll ever get one. Katherine, Mabel and Katie made the girls' basketball team, but my pen refuses to sufficiently describe their skill and grace. Polly Kemp returned and joined our class. You should have seen him play basketball-no one had a chance to score with Polly on the job. Bob and Fritz were subs on the team, so you see that 1919 was well represented. You'll be surprised to hear that Fritz, Bob and Mouse have become ac- complished actors. Fritz proved himself an ardent lover-quite in his line, you know. All the girls fell in love with Bob, he made such a distinguished looking old gentleman. Mouse took the part of the tailor and I laughed at him until my sides ached. Even dear old dad said, Good enough, when the show had ended. ' I can see in my mind's eye the impatient rumpling of your brow, so before too great a havoc is done to your upper regions I'll say Adios.

Who spoke? lhI10Cel'lt QHIHQS 26 Freshmen Voyage At last the day had dawned-the day on which we were to set sail on our eventful voyage. After many goodbys to our friends and parents we crossed the gangplank of the good ship F. U. H. S. Forty-one of us had purchased tickets. Frightened and trembling we came on deck and each one chose his corner. The Captain, a jolly fellow, soon appeared and did his best-to make us feel at ease. He had piloted many such as we across the same route, so there was little danger of being wrecked. The ship glided from the harbor and before us we could see four vast seas. Our Pilot told us that we had just entered the smallest of these and that we must cross three more before land- ing at Commencement Wharf. After many interesting stories told by the sailors we were taken to the dining room. Eating was a thing which had never given us any trouble, but we were quite at sea when told to choose for ourselves. We read the menu again and again. English Bouillon, German Noodles, Fricassee a la Rieben, H. H. Relish, Browned Hard Tack, Cubed Roots with A. G. G. Sauce, Lemon Ice and Moserine Tarts. What funny names! We had never heard of such names before, but we took whatever the Steward said was good, not knowing or caring much what it was, for the boat was now in rough water and had begun to rock. I don't think there was a one of us who did not have a touch, of sea- sickness and wished to give up Cubed Roots, H. H. Relish and other such foods, but we were told to keep on eating them and we would soon be able to digest them. There was nothing to do but obey orders, and only six became so ill that they left the party. Our Captain and his crew soon learned that we were a live bunch and were always planning things to keep us amused and entertained. But im- agine our surprise when, for the very first time, we were invited as guests of honor at a real reception and dance. One afternoon in late October we landed on Sophomore Isle to see the sights. While there we were attacked by a band of fierce natives. Our men were forced into a game of their own device, and only by keen headwork were our boys able to beat them in their game. The defeat was 'a great surprise to them and they have always treated us with the greatest respect. Two of our members, Darrel Nielson and Harold Clausen, became inter- ested in dramatics and were invited to take part in a play staged on Ferndale Island. . The boys often played basketball with the women of the islands and seemed to enjoy it very much. Floyd Worthington was taken to Fortuna Isle, that he might compete with the natives in football. Sometimes when we were all a little homesick, Victoria, Alice and Thel- ma would do their best to cheer us with their music. After much discussion and planning we decided to entertain the Captain and crew by a return dance and program, in appreciation of past favors. This we did, and it proved to be one of the merriest events of the voyage. Having been piloted through the first sea without any mishaps, we are now ready to start on our journey across the second, and are eagerly awaiting the day when our ship shall again put safely into the harbor.

Perhaps the best way to judge the edition is to compare it with past ones. ,In editing the publication, we have done our best to avoid the hard and fast lines that have been followed for the past nine years. Wherever possible we have made it entirely different from the others. Although the staff has had the greatest opposition, including a daily paper and the Typographical Union, they have stood together and worked in unison for the success of the Tomahawk. The majority of the staff are Seniors and the Senior motto, Climb though the rocks be rugged, has always been our guiding star. If those who have striven to make the paper a failure and boosted the cry, home industry, would conscientiously ask themselves, Do I practice what I preach? the majority would answer themselves negatively. They advo- cate home industry when it benefits them. If those that knock and oppose would co-operate and practice their own teachings, they would obtain results from the rising generation. To us, the slogan boost does not simply mean knock the other felow, but it does mean to work for the benefit of the whole community. We do not wish you to understand that we believe we should have no difficulties to surmount. On the contrary, the surmounting of difficulties is in itself an education. The Student Body has had many difficulties to overcome during the past year. The old bills left by the last Student Body were paid as soon as possible. The Student Body has now a surplus in the treasury, due to careful management. In educational lines we have accomplished as much as possible. We have not lost sight of the fundamental aim of the school and our regular duties have always received first attention. The book contains a complete history of the school year, as even the track results are given, and track was held only ten days ago. This edition also contains a two-page address to the patrons of the school, written by our esteemed principal, Mr. C-rant. It should be read by everyone who has the welfare of the school at heart. The staff wishes to thank all those who have helped us make the paper what it is. We are indebted to our advertisers for their support, to all the faculty, especially to Miss Clyne, the faculty adviserg to Miss Herdeg, under whose careful management the typing has been done, to Miss Moser, who has given us aid in the art department, and to Mr. Grant, who has done his best in our behalf. In submitting to the people of Eel River Valley this tenth issue of the Tomahawk, the staff has made an earnest effort to give a paper worthy of the school it represents. The success of the paper depends upon you. If, in your estimation, we have truly represented the school life in an interesting and attractive way, the staff may take upon themselves the credit of having published a most successful paper. If we have accomplished our aim, I think it is due to the harmonious co-operation and unceasing efforts of the entire staff, together with the sup- port of the Student Body.

Far back from the street in the midst of a beautiful garden of flowers and magnolia trees stood a stately old southern mansion. The lower part of the house was almost hidden by Cherokee roses, which twined about the pillars and overhung the low veranda. Mingled with the odor of these was that of the honeysuckle which formed a covering over the long side porch. Here a gentleman called Monsieur Cottrelle had brought his wife after leaving his home in France. She had long ago died, leaving a gallant little son and a tiny daughter. These two little Creoles had grown up in New Orleans, that city of fair women, flowers and pleasureg a romantic bit of France on our southern border. Monsieur Cottrelle possessed an immense fortune. His wealth was made up of vast tobacco and cotton interests. Hundreds of slaves labored on his acres and he had become a most radical supporter of 'the southern cause. Lovely Marie, the belle of New Orleans, had inherited from her mother the dusky hair, soft dark eyes and fair skin of Southern Europe. Her accent was inimitable and her English cultured and refined. That deep, low voice coming from her pretty lips added to the charm of this little Confederate. Everyone was devoted to her, especially a youthful, manly Yankee from the North. Richard Mansfield was Marie's companion at all occasions, in- cluding the Carnival Ball at the San Luis Hotel. At this social event the beautiful women of the sunny South passed to and fro in their soft, lacy costumes. jewels were few, for artificial aids to beauty were not required in this fairyland. No one could surpass in charm the dainty little Marie and no man could have been more devoted to her than Richard. These two were happy-in fact, too happy to see the dark shadow which loomed up in the distance. On the following morning as they galloped over the hills in the bright sunshine, a distant sound like thunder fell on their ears. The sky was clear and Richard was suddenly brought to realize the grave danger. The first guns had been fired and the great struggle begun, with all its tears and break- ing of hearts. ' The hot blood of the South and the stubborn will of the North clashed, and the young lover rode away to the North to wage war against his fellow- men. Marie watched her father and brother ride away in gray and realized dimly that somewhere in the North her lover had ridden forth in blue. No 32 sweetheart's farewell had given him courage and a heart in New Orleans, once so light, now ached with pain. It is an old story which follows. The same sad story which through the countless ages has been linked with the havoc of war. The beautiful old mansion with its ballroom and galleries became a hos- pital and Marie the nurse for those giving their lives for the Confederacy. She bandaged the wounds and spoke kind words to the dying, as in a dream, until one day they brought her own father home, a victim of one of the terrible shells. All of her care was in vain. She knew he could not be saved. ' He real- ized that the end had come and during a moment of consciousness he uttered, Marie, swear that you will never desert the cause of the South and that never, never will you marry a Yankee-swear it, Marie. Marie, too heartbroken to speak, whispered, I swear, dear father. ' Following in the footsteps of his father, Marie's brother Jean had given vast sumsto finance the war in the South. When the last gun had sounded he returned to New Orleans to find his home destroyed and the estate sacri- iced to the lost cause. As Jean in the South, so Richard in the North returned home. But the situation was different. Wealth still remained in possession of one, while poverty faced the other. New Orleans rose from the struggle and bravely strove to readjust her future. Here Jean set out to take care of his little sister, and here Richard returned to claim his little sweetheart. jean's pride was too great to accept aid from a Yankee or to give his sister in marriage to him. Marie never breathed the promise she had made her father to anyone save Richard, and broken-hearted he returned to the North, hoping that work might help him forget his sorrow. As the dreary years passed, Marie did her best to keep the home of her brother. The old negro mammy who had always taken care of Marie stayed to help her. But the day came when both of these saw that they must leave the old surroundings. Jean brought to his home a selfish, haughty bride. Marie loved this sis- ter and would have lived happily with her, but she froze every offer of love. After this break in the family the faithful old slave became a domestic in another home, and Marie accepted a position as instructor in a girls' board- ing school. No member of the faculty was more loved than this little woman. She fit so beautifully into her work. All the dearest secrets of the girls were con- fided to her because she alone understood everything. Why should she not understand? Had she not enjoyed the same? Had she not been through it all herself? She understood too deeply, for many times she sought her lonely room and bore her sadness in silence. One night in spring the Ward-Belmont Seminary gave a formal dance. It was in the mdst of this that her sorrow became too great to bear and she sought her place of hiding. Memories crowded in upon her and she resolved to rid herself of it all. So little did she have to live for that gladly would she have severed the last threads of life, had it not been against the will of the Highest Power. ' In a few days, and practically without warning, she boarded the train for California. Here she hoped to find new life and strength and to free herself forever from the clutch of old memories. 33 En route to the West, Marie made the acquaintance of a refined woman of middle age from Los Angeles. Marie knew from her conversation -that she was one interested in social service, civic and club work. She saw that through this woman she would be most apt to find a situation among that class of people with whom she most desired to mingle. When they had finished the journey Mrs. Boardman knew that she had found in Marie just the companion to accompany her mother East. In a few days she was called to Mrs. Boardman's home and introduced to her mother. The latter was delighted with Marie's charming personality and they decided to start for Philadelphia the next week. Marie was very happy, for she loved to meet people and converse with them. She had grown to crave change and excitement. Mrs. Ballentyne, Marie's companion, had formerly lived in Philadelphia and had many friends there. She was a jolly old lady with snow white hair and a merry twinkle in her eyes. Old and young alike took great pleasure in entertaining her. Marie found a hearty welcome among the younger set. One day the girls told Marie of a young man in their set in Philadelphia who cared nothing for the social affairs and who would never attend any of their functions. As a result of his indifference all the girls were very much interested in him. For a moment the past swept before her-she thought of the time when she had no interest in society and was made sad on such occa- sions. She almost reproached herself for entering into real life again, but it was with no thought of ever meeting another Richard, it was only to bury the past. The days flitted by and all the while Marie became more enthusiastic over her new position. Not once did she neglect the dear old lady, but did all in her power to make her happy. Before they returned to the West a grand ball was to be given in honor of Marie. All the younger set were thrilled with the thoughts of this brilliant occasion. The invitations were out and the young man who was so indiffer- ent to such occasions was numbered among the guests. He had only been in Philadelphia about six months, but had become a great favorite among the men. One afternoon as Mrs. Ballentyne and Marie sat in the sun parlor busy with their embroidery, a carriage drove up to the side entrance. Presently the hostess called these two so that they might meet her callers. A small gray-haired lady rose to greet Mrs. Balentyne as the hostess in- troduced Mrs. Manslield. Standing at her left stood Richard with his gaze fixed on Marie. For a moment there was a dead silence-each too overcome to speak. Presently he smiled, as he heard her name pronounced. Oh, yes, I've known Miss Cottrelle for many yearsg we were friendsnin the South, said Richard. For the next two weeks Richard was a frequent visitor at this home. Many happy and many sad hours recalled the past for them. After restless nights and days of meditation Marie realized that her dear father never yyanted her to be unhappy, so she and Richard buried the Blue and Gray side y side. Not one of Marie's friends knew that she had made the acquaintance of this man, so unconcerned in their invitations. Great was their surprise to learn that Marie had gone to New York for a visit, but still greater was the surprise when Mr. and Mrs. Mansfield returned from New York to attend the grand farewell ball for Louisiana's lovely daughter. WILLDA MORRIS, 'l9. 34 The Tanbark Industry of Humboldt County The tanbark industry in Humboldt is an industry of no mean proportions, thousands of cords being shipped out of the county annually, besides hundreds of barrels of the tanbark extract. The tree from which this bark and extract is obtained is commonly known as the tanoak. It is found in a narrow strip following the coast line from southern Oregon to Monterey. The tanoak is closely related to the chestnut oak which is found in the New England and some of the Lake States. It is an evergreen, shedding its leaves after the young foliage of spring has matured and blosoms formed in May have produced next year's acorns. Consequently blossoms and acorns appear upon the tree at the same time. The leaves closely resemble those of the chestnut, and the bark, which is thick and furrowed, is especially rich in tannin. The tree attains a height of fifty to one hundred and fifty feet, with a diameter measuring one to six feet at the base. About the first of May, or as soon as the sap is up in a sufficient quantity, so that the bark will part readily from the tree, camps are established in or conveniently near the tract of timber to be peeled. As soon as the camps are ready a crew of men are hired, who set to work peeling the trees. The tree to be peeled is first sampled by striking through the bark and then prying sidewise. If the bark separates from the body of the tree with a peculiar kind of noise, sounding as though one were tearing a piece of cloth, it is considered all right. If the bark refuses to loosen from the tree it is left, and a more promising tree selected. If the bark separates from the tree it is rung around the base as near the ground as possible-that is, the bark is cut through to the body of the tree in a ring. Another ring is then cut four feet above the first ring. The strip of bark between these two rings is now pried from the trunk as a coil. . The tree is now felled in such a manner that it will not lie close to the ground. In this position the bark can be removed easily. Care must also be taken to fell the tree so that the limbs or foliage will not cover any bark already peeled. After the tree is felled the limbs are cut off as near the body of the tree as possible, and the remaining knots cut around in such a manner that the bark will separate from the tree without binding. It is then rung every four feet up the trunk as far as the bark is thick enough to be handled profitably. After this operation is completed the bark is removed in coils which are allowed to dry in the sunshine. When it has dried sufficiently to coil so it can be handled conveniently it is swamped. For this, trails are built through the peelings and the bark is corded along these. The bark is then loaded on mules fitted with packsaddles and especially made hooks, bent to hold the bark in place, distributing the weight equally, and at the same time making a load that is not too heavy. The bark is packed to a place where it can be reached by a sled or wagon. The mules carrying these loads are tied together in what is called a pack train. Sometimes as many as six or eight mules are handled by one man. The science of handling these pack mules is one that can not be learned from books, as a mule is, if it wants to be, the most obstinate of animals. The bark is sometimes carried out on sleds. When this method is possi- ble much time and labor is saved. After the bark has been sledded or packed to good roads it is then hauled to the nearest shipping point by auto trucks 35 or by wagons equipped especially for hauling bark. Sometimes as much as four tons are hauled at one load in this manner over roads having as much as thirty per cent grades. These wagons are drawn by six horses. The bark is measured by the cord, allowing 2600 pounds for each. The bark is worth from S25 to S30 per cord on the San Francisco market, depend- ing of course on the demand. In southern Humboldt a large extrcting plant is located on Redwood Creek, near Briceland. This plant is owned and operated by the Wagner Leather Company of San Francisco. All the bark for miles around is hauled here to have the tannin extracted. The bark is first crushed fine and then steamed in large tanks. The liquid thus obtained is evaporated in a large copper vat until it becomes a black liquid of the consistency of molasses. All the tanks in which this is handled must be made of copper, the liquid eating into iron and steel almost as readily as sulphuric acid. The extract is run into barrels and is then hauled to Shelter Cove on large auto trucks. These trucks run day and night during the busy season. From Shelter Cove it is shipped to San Francisco by water. This extract is the best preparation yet discovered for the tanning of leather.

FRANCIS, '17. 36 The Dream Messenger ' The Copper swept down around a bend and past a little town of a dozen whitewashed buildings. Back of the settlement on the slope of the hill stood a. large rustic house of white pine with a rock foundation. This was the sum- mer home of Mr. Blake, a Chicago financier. His two daughters stood on the bank of the river, looking at the picture that was stretched out before them. The river was a muddy, rushing torrent bearing a burden of yellow sand and silt from the gold mines, but the last rays of the setting sun made it look like a river of gold. On the other side of the river lay a little strip of prairie land covered with a carpet of bright flowers. Beyond this rose foothills covered with pine, spruce, birch and maple, each in its different shade of spring green. Above these towered the snow-topped mountain peaks, blue, ivory and gold in the sun. I am so glad father brought us with him this year, said Evelyn, the oldest girl. So am I, replied Audrey. But, Evelyn, wouldn't you love to go over those mountains and help discover that new land ? Oh, I don't know as I would care about it, sighed her sister. Just think of all the hardships the poor men and dogs have to go through during the long winter months. I have read many times of men who have crossed those mountains and never returned. Here their conversation was interrupted by the faint whistle of a steamer which was coming down the stream from the trading posts above. Soon it came around the bend, and when abreast the town her bell clanged and the great wheel stopped. She swung around, slid quietly into the bank, and was made fast. , Her deck was lined with passengers, most of whom were prospectors. When the gangplank was placed all began to pour off the boat. Then the luggage and mail was brought off and for the next half hour there was great excitement. Everyone wanted to hear the latest news from the gold fields and all rushed to the little postoffice in the back of the store, to receive their letters. Evelyn and Audrey were among these, and after standing in line for five or ten minutes they reached their box. Evelyn, opening it, drew out a. letter addresed to herself. ' A letter for me, she cried. For you, and from the north ? gasped Audrey. Yes, and I know no one in the north. As she opened the envelope a picture of a dog team fell out. Oh, cried Audrey, a really, truly dog team. How funny, that there should be just the picture and no writing at all, said her sister. Why, there is something written on the back of the picture. Evelyn turned it over and saw penned in a masculine hand: Miss Evelyn Blake: If you will write to this address I will tell you why I have sent this pic- ture. Big Jack, Little Wonder Gold Mine, Alaska. Are you going to answer ? asked Audrey. Yes, answered Evelyn, if father will let me. Oh, he must, cried Audrey, as she started for the house. I am going to ask him if you may, this very minute. 37 Instead of following her sister, Evelyn sat staring at the picture which she held in her hand. Soon she heard Audrey calling her, and looking up she saw her running towards her and waving her hands wildly. He says you may, she called, and I brought paper and a pencil so that you can start right away. But what shall I write, dear ? Say, Evelyn, you are the limit. You aren't a bit excited over this and I am so excited I can hardly wait for his answer. Oh, if he had only written to me. I wish he had, sighed Evelyn. But now tell me what to write. Why, say, 'I received the picture and am patiently waiting for an expla- nation.' So after much discussion this was the message sent. Audrey watched the mail box every day for three weeks. She was al- most discouraged when one day she opened the box and found a letter ad- dressed to her sister. Hooray, it's from the north l Audrey ran all the way home, rushed into the house and threw the letter into her sister's lap. What is it P asked Evelyn. Why, the letter from jack, said Audrey, with wide-open eyes. lljack ?lJ Oh, Evie, have you forgotten ? cried her sister in astonishment. Yes, I had, she acknowledged, tearing open the envelope. Together they read: Miss Blake: I am a mining engineer and my work has taken me far into the interior of Alaska. Ordinarily I finish my work and reach the settlements before the lakes and rivers freeze, but last year I was delayed and was obliged to come out by sled, a distance of seven hundred miles. Shortly before I reached one of the lakes I met three Indians and a Frenchman. We started to cross the lake, but stopped to rest and sleep on a small island midway. While I slept I dreamed I saw a young girl dressed in summer clothing, standing near me in the deep snow. I asked her who she was and why she was there. She told me her name was Evelyn Blake, that her home was in Chicago, and that her father had a summer home in Alaska. She said she knew that I was intending to keep on over the lake, but if I did so I would be drowned, as there was open water covered by drifting snow. She advised me to go about twenty-five miles up the river, Where I would find safe crossmg. Here I was awakened by the howling of dogs and the shouts of the Indians. It was three o'clock in the morning and they were breaking up camp. I told them of my dream and they laughed at me. But I did not go with them. I followed the instructions of the dream girl and when I reached my destination the Indians and Frenchman had not been seen. We got a search- ing party and at the point they should have reached the mainland we found their canoe, their sleeping-bags and other camp outfit floating in the open water. So, Miss Blake, I consider that you have saved my life and so mailed the card to you. In the dream you told me that you lived in Chicago, and many times I have wondered if you knew my little pal, Margaret Graham. Do you? - It 38 has been so long since I last saw her. Margaret Graham, exclaimed Audrey. Oh, Evelyn, we have found a true romance, for certainly Margaret must be his sweetheart. I have never heard her speak of such a person, said Evelyn. I don't think that she ever had a friend by the name of Jack. Maybe not, it may be another dream, but go on and see what he has to say. When I came home from college father wanted me to go into business with him, but I did not want to, so left home. I came to Alaska and am now a mining engineer. I wrote several letters home but never received an an- swer, so if you happen to know anything about Margaret, I wish you would let me know. If you help me out of this as you have before, I can never thank you enough. Truly yours, Jack Graham. Evelyn, Evelyn, how can I ever stand it until Margaret comes tonight on the boat P cried Audrey ,jumping up and down. Just think how surprised he will be when he receives a letter from her. Oh, Evelyn, to think that you have played such an important part' in finding dear Margaret's long-lost brother, cried Audrey, kissing her sister. It's just like a story book, isn't it ? Yes, it is, said Evelyn, quietly. That night as the moon shed its pale beams over the silent earth, Evelyn wondered what romance the land of the Midnight Sun held for her. MAREN SKOW, '17. 'Q 4429 ..

The snow had 1' l,., iii? been falling steadily for days and days. I L,,, ,qfg7'-+' ik?3 'J A soft white mantle covered the earth 1' - 5 and the boughs of the trees bent with their heavy burden. Still it was falling, steadily, unceasingly. A happy throng was hurring back and forth. The wealthy lolled in their warm, luxurious sleighs accompanied by a merry jingling of bellsg others in their hired droskas driven by the funny Ishvoshies Qdrivers of the public cabj who were padded out of all proportion. But the majority were walking, shivering in their poor garments, yet they were joyful, for it was Christmas Eve. At last the streets were almost deserted, church bells rang and bril- liant lights shone from the windows, and the scent of Christmas filled the air. Even the beggars called joyfully, Gladig Jule to each other. On the banks of the beautiful Aura stood the gray, grim walls of an ancient castle. It was here that the Cross of Christianity was first planted in the North. This huge fortress was built as a protection from the pagan Finns. Kings have held councils there, and high revels have been heard within those ancient walls. Eric XIV of Sweden, the knightly, romantic king who fell in love with a peasant maiden and raised her to his kingly rank, was imprisoned at Obo Castle. The room in which he was imprisoned-a small dark room in the tower-is still untouched. This castle was also the home of the powerful Roman Catholic bishops who ruled Finland from 1157-1522. The three most important of these were Bishop Heming, who died in 1367 and was canonized in 15143 Magnus II and Mag- nus III. Their mouldy coflins may yet be seen in the cathedral close by. As I entered Obo Castle a spirit of gloominess and dreariness assailed me and the Christmas spirit was gone. The clash of arms and bright col- ored uniforms next greeted me-they were the Cossack sentry and guards. Instead of the glories I expected, this old place resounded with groans and curses, for what was it but a Russian political prison? People were seen in every cell with chains and iron rings bound to their ankles. Their food consisted of black bread and water, and a little salt her- ring because it was Christmas. In my wanderings I discovered a trap door in the thick stone floor. This was the malefactors' resting place, thirty-six feet deep. Here prisoners ac- cused of the worst crimes were put and they never came out again. Once a day bread and water was lowered to them, then the door was shut, for the stench was revolting. A thick, green slime caused by the dampness from the river, covered the walls. The Russian mode of torture in the middle ages was cold, hunger, dark- ness and stench, and Russia never changes.

CQLLINS, '17, 41 Sir Roger and the Green Car Pectus viduae meo die teli carru motum esset. In the club Sir Roger and a number of his friends had just finished their coffee over which they had been discussing the report that Sir Andrew Free- port had been wild and extravagant enough to buy a new something called an automobile. Sir Roger settled his white wig carefully, and straightening his coat and doublet, maintained an attitude of skeptical, though good-na- tured, disbelief as the topic was continued. They were fine English gentlemen--these members of the club. But this did not prevent their argument from becoming a trifle heated. It ended by Sir Roger saying that he was positive there was no such thing as a ve- hicle that could move without the aid of horses. Gasoline! Motors! Engines! Who ever heard the like F exclaimed Sir Roger. Will Honeycomb replied that it was true that Sir Andrew had actually arrived in London with a wonderful new vehicle called an automobile. Sir Roger would not take back his words and vowed if it were true, he himself, would ride in the thing. A safe wager, thought Sir Roger, chuckling. At that moment Captain Sentry entered with the latest news that Sir Andrew would arrive in his new wonder in a few minutes. The party hastily abandoned the club-room and hurried to the street. An atmosphere of suppressed excitement hovered over these jolly, elderly its direction and presently there swung into the street, a long, low, green sound-a loud purr and hum-came to their ears. They watched eagerly iii its direction and presently there swung into the street, a long, low, green car. As it drew up beside the little group of club members Sir Andrew took off his goggles and greeted them all with a hearty laugh. Sir Roger was a victim of amazement and awe. He took off his plumed hat, straightened his wig, and replaced his hat. Then he joined the others and listened and watched while Sir Andrew demonstrated. When he had finished, several pairs of aged eyes had kindled with the fire of desire. Will Honeycomb, up to his old, bantering tricks, reminded Sir Roger of his vow to ride in the car. Sir Roger was a man of his honor and declared he would keep his word. Everyone laughed and Sir Andrew gave a know- ing wink as Sir Roger took his place beside him. The next short hour was one to be remembered by Sir Roger. He had the sensation of sinking as he settled into the soft cushions, and his heart fairly jumped as the great car started. Then he seemed to be flying, so quickly did the landscape ilit by, and so sharply did the wind sting his face. Sir Roger's fine laces were sorely dishevelled and he was forced to cling to his hat. His other hand ached and grew numb with gripping the car in nervous terror. Poor Sir Roger! Not a word could he speak and not at all could he enjoy the ride. It was a great relief to him when Sir Andrew headed the car again for the club. Not once did Sir Roger draw an even breath, but sev- eral times he gasped in terror when Sir Andrew turned a corner recklessly or grazed an object in his flight. Although he received the terrors of his life he could not help but feel a wild exhilaration in his spirits and somehow his blood tingled warmer. 42 When at last the green car came to a stop beside the waiting group of club members it was an excited, disarranged Sir Roger who eagerly left the car and joined them. Will Honeycomb made some teasing remark as they entered the club and Sir Roger was heard to reply: Well, gentlemen, had such a wonderful car been known in my younger days perhaps I might have won the perverse widow lu EVA JENNINGS, '1s. YV! Y! 6 i i ig The Fairie' s Banquet The sun sinks low behind the hill, Casting a glow o'er vale and rill, As the dying day fast ebbs away, Leaving the night to hold full sway. Somewhere in the light of the moonbeams bright, The fairies are having a banquet tonight. They merrily while the hours away, But at break of day they cease their play. They seek their bowers among the flowers, Mourning, the flying wee sma' hours. At Auroras' approach the gentle breeze Bears them aloft to the tops of the trees. Would Luna disclose that lovely scene? Nay! She will smile o'er its beauty till e'en Brings her again to watch o'er the earth, With its pleasures, its joys, its sorrows and mirth! W. MORRIS, '19, -P-'2 43 Dramatics After careful consideration of the tal- ent available, the play committee, com- posed of Zoe Kelsey, Loie Francis, Floyd Worthington, and Miss Clyne, selected The Private Secretary for presenta- tion. A general reading was held at which any member of the Student Body might try out for a desired role. As a result of this, the committee and coach chose the following cast: Douglas Cattermole Qnephew to Mr. Cat- termolej ................ Elbert Kelsey Mrs. Stead tDouglas' landladyj ........ Sadzefreneh Gibson ftailor of Bond Streetj . . Marc Morri.9on 1 C nephew to Mr. Mars- ..............Glenn Haas Spaulding ....... Linus Hicks Mr. Cattermole .......... Leland Harbers Knox fa writ serverj .... . ................... ....... D arrel Nielsen Miss Ashford ................. ....... . ........ ....... IV I aren Skow Mr. Marsland .............,........... ..... R obert Haney Edith Marsland this daughterl ........... ,. ..... Julia Hr' A Eva VVebster ther friend and companionj .... ..... L ole F john fa butlerj ..........,................ .... H arold Many hours of hard work and the unfailing help of the coach, Miss Clyne, resulted in a play which received nothing but praise and Commendation from all sides. Linus Hicks showed rare dramatic ability in the portrayal of Reverend Robert Spaulding. From the moment he appeared on the stage with all his goods and chattels, the audience was kept in an uproar of laughter. Leland Harbers, who took the difficult part of the gruff and blustering old gentleman, Mr. Cattermole,proved himselfto be perfectly capable of the role. Maren Skow, as Miss Ash- ford, kept one eye on her little charges, Eva and Edith, with as much ease as if she had been in her own home. Much credit 44 is due her for the way in which she in- terpreted her lines. Elbert Kelsey and Glenn Haas, the two nephews, kept things going at a lively pace from curtain to curtain. Both made the audience enjoy their jolly capers with them. Sadie French played the part of an over-anxious landlady to perfection, while her make-up was great. Marc Morrison, as the tailor, who had a hard time collecting payments, was there all the time, although he did have a terrible time trying to capture that burglar. No one could have played the digni- fied role of Mr. Marsland better than Robert Hadley. Julia Hansen and Loie Francis, as and Edith, were always ready to Elbert and Glenn in sowing their oats. They played with ease and perfectly at home on the stage. Harold Clausen took the part of the in a very dignified manner. Darrel Nielsen reflected credit upon himself in the role of the writ server. Popular Hawaiian songs were sung before the play and between acts by a chorus, composed of the following: Loie Francis, Ila Kelly, Lucille Roberts, Gladys Bugbee, Zoe Kelsey, Floyd llforthington, Mabel Christensen, and Cyril Ries. An accompaniment of ukuleles and bells proved to be very effective. Ferndale High possesses some excel- lent material for dramatics and it is hoped that in the future more time may be devoted to this line of work. It is the desire of those interested to arrange the program so that more work may be done in oral Eng- lish. Such a course would not only prove of great value to the pupil but would be an endless source of pleasure to him. Next year we hope to stage two large plays in- stead of the one which we gave this year. Many literary and musical programs were given to celebrate various days. Be- sides these, we have relied solely on schoolj talent for the entertainment at our recep- tions and dances. . . 45 Elbert Ke Lvlifld Debate Un the evening of March 10, the Eureka debating team came to Fern- dale for the first of the series of interscholastic debates. The question for debate was, Resolved, that some regular military train- ing be required of all boys of the high school age, i. e., fourteen to twenty, unless physically disabled. Elbert Kelsey, Leland Harbers, and Harold Aggeler upheld the nega- tive for Ferndale, while Argyle Desmond, Rae McClaren, and William Ellis supported Eureka in the affirmative. The members of the Ferndale team were especially strong in refutation Q their arguments were to the point and their manner convincing. Dr. Lester Cottrel and Professor Davenport, both of Scotia, together with I. E. Neighbor, of Eureka, acted as judges, and gave the decision to the negative. Ferndale and Arcata were then matched for the finals. The question for the championship debate was, Resolved, that motion picture theatres are a desirable amusement. As Ferndale chose the question, Arcata had her choice of the side of the question, and selected the negative. ' April 18 was the date agreed upon for the debate and Ferndale was the place. Harold Sorenson, Oscar Larson and Donald Horton represented Arcata, while Harold Aggeler, Elbert Kelsey, and Leland Harbers argued for Fern- dale. The affirmative based its case upon specific facts backed by the best authorities of the day. The negative, however, indulged in generallties, which lacked support. Ferndale is fortunate in being able to retain two of her debaters, Leland Harbers and Elbert Kelsey, but is especially unfortunate in losing Harold Aggeler by graduation. Gifted with an especially keen mind, a pleasing per- sonality, and a good delivery he can easily be classed with the best debaters of the State. The judges were H. C. Nelson, James Mahan, and J. L. Kennedy, who gave a unanimous decision to the affirmative. By winning this championship Ferndale brought home the county championship for debate twice during the last four years. 46 0 'UW' n 5 i V -Q f X 'tw .N eb. ff f '91, '5 'uv .4 my Fu Q r 1 .rx 'V f , f P 2 ,r X , -- 5 N I 'l'-'Q?qf:.fgf2'3 ' ...----W , L' 1 'fw.55qs5,-Q-'fr ui:21g1fsf+5iLa2:f., ,4 f- af--, I - sf- '42--15.-'4:.f',.:,. 44.efL:a1.-r, 11 ff f - X S254 N-X .X - ,,f '31 4f'?i3??3'f'5'r: V 3965345 .'s'..:Lg1:1.-E X4 My Q 1 fn ' ' ' -- E+? 2-'-:g-:V '5-Mi ' -f-'fag Q- sd l 'Lv' -:Xin- 7 IS'-. -.

The Upper Classmen extended a hearty welcome to the little folks and spared them the usual initiation stunts. A highly entertaining musical program was presented and enjoyed by all. Immediately after the program, the seats were removed and the re- mainder of the evening spent in dancing. Beneath a canopy of red and white the merry dancers whiled away the happy hours. Punch was served in a prettily decorated booth in the hallway. ' The Freshmen Dance One of the most unique social affairs of the year was the party given by the Freshmen on October 21. During the first part of the evening the Fresh- ies entertained us with a motion picture show entitled, Love and the Gout. Although new in this line of work, the members of 1920 proved to be real stars of the film world. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing and eleven o'clock came all too soon. Football Banquet and Dance On November 25, the Girls' Basket Team gave a banquet honoring the Football Team. Odd Fellows' Hall was tastefully decorated in the school colors. Minia- ture footballs served as place cards and concealed the toast program. j Cyril Collins proved himself to be a most pleasing toastmaster. Many of those present added to the merriment with a good store of jokes. After block F's were given to those who had earned them during the season, every one went to Masonic Hall to dance. There the entire Student Body assembled with an unusual amount of Ferndale spirit. Paul Jones' and tag dances enlivened the crowd, so that little time elapsed for intermission. Dinner-Dance Mrs. S. V. Morrison made the play cast the recipient of her hospitality on January 27, when she entertained them at dinner. Dainty cards marked the places of the actors and actresses, while a pro- fusion of violets and ferns formed a most effective table decoration. Linus Hicks, the real Private Secretary, again called on his players to provoke mirth. This they did by responding with fitting toasts and stories. By this time the ball room was filled with gay young people awaiting the dance. They were joined by the play cast and a jolly hop followed. After a midnight supper the guests departed having spent one of the merriest evenings of the school year. Spring Hop The Assembly Hall resembled a bit of old Ireland on St. Patrick's Day, when the Student Body gathered for another jolly hop. Punch, which sa- vored of Ireland, was served by the Freshmen girls from an attractively dec- orated booth. Basketball Dinner Mr. and Mrs. George Rieben entertained the members of the boy's basket- ball team at dinner on March l. The tables were prettily decorated with bouquets of white violets, from which extended red streamers. Red basket- balls served as place cards and added to the already effective decoration. Frank Francis, as toastmaster, called on the different members of the team for speeches. 48 144 , . yin? - - -'ji ll Q-2- wi :'5 S ffl I ll .

XYhen Captain Morrison and Coach Riebeu issued the call for football aspirants. twenty-five men reported for practice. From the middle of September un- til the first game with Eureka on Oc- tober 21, these supporters of the Red and White worked faithfully. A prac- tice game was played with Fortuna which resulted in a 12-12 score. Eureka vs. Ferndale Playing against a much heavier team Ferndale was defeated by a score of 53-13. The game. however. was not as one-sided as the score would indi- cate. Eureka scored in each quarter and gained yard after yard by her short passes and line bucks.

Ferndale's left end, took a forward pass from VVilliams and carried it over the line. Hansen kicked goal. Shortly afterward, Jennings re- peated the play and registered thirteen points for Ferndale. Although outclassed, the team fought every yard from gun to gun. Fortuna vs. Ferndale On the 28th of October, Ferndale j-ourneyed to Fortuna. lt had rained all morning and the game was more of a mud fight than football. After four quarters of hard fighting on a muddy field, the final whistle blew leaving the teams tied in a 0-0 score. Only in two instances did the ball pass over the twenty yard linesg once when Hicks, of Ferndale, missed a for- ward pass on Fortuna's ten yard line Harberl, quarter Becker, end 57 Rieben, guard vi .1 vii?

At the close of the game, Ferndale was within Fortuna's twenty-two yard line and marching steadily toward the goal. Arcata vs. Ferndale Ferndale's victory over Arcata was due to her consistent playing. Arcata started oi? with a rush, taking the ball on a kick-off and putting it over for a touchdown. Arcata soon weakened, however. with the result that Ferndale ran riot for two touchdowns and in the last quarter scored her third, and final goal. Although Ferndale did not win the championship, her men gave a good ac- count of themselves-tying with For- tuna for second place. Aggeler, center leor ' Hadley, half 58 c. -1 , .

Although the basketball season this year has been unsuccessful, both from a standpoint of games won and the amount of school spirit shown, we earnestly hope that the girls will get together next year and fight for the Ferndale High School with enthusiasm that is never lacking. The team this year lined up as follows: Forwards, Oeschger fcaptainj, Benjamin, Reynolds, Guards, Besemer, French, Twohig: Centers, Casanova, Bugbee, Cook 5 Substitutes, Morrison, Jennings. Eureka vs. Ferndale The Eureka High School defeated us, October 28, on their home grounds. The game was ragged and slow and held little interest for the spectators. The final score was 38 to 15. Fortuna vs. Ferndale On November 4, we journeyed to Fortuna and played a hard fought game which resulted in a 33 to 18 victory for Fortuna. Arcata vs. Ferndale NVe gained our lone victory on November ll by dealing Arcata a decisive defeat. The score at the end of the game stood 25 to 10. Interclass Games The interclass pennant, put up by our coach, Miss Clyne, in order to foster school spirit among the girls, was captured by the Senior quintet. Not only did the Senior girls win the pennant, but they can boast of having shown the most spirit, and of being better represented on the team than all the other classes put together. The Junior girls put up a very poor showingin these games. They could not even produce a team of Eve girls, who were willing to play. This series of games was expected to awaken some of the girls and turn them out for regular practice, but poor results were obtained. The girls as a rule came out for the games but were not willing to devote time for practice The Senior girls lined up as follows: Forwards, Oeschger fcaptainj Reynolds, Guards, French, Besemerg Center, Bugbee, junior team: Forwards, Chapin, Francis, Center, Jennings, Guards, Church, Kelley fcaptainj.

Ferndale vs. Arcata ' On February 10, Arcata journeyed to Ferndale for the lirst game of the- season. Although the Ferndale team showed their superiority the Arcata quintette must be given credit for the hard and consistent playing they put up throughout the game. The excellent teamwork of .the Ferndale five was the feature of the evening. The score at the end of the first half stood 29-12, Ferndale leading, but in the last half Ferndale played a more defensive game holding their opponents to two baskets-the final score be- ing 41-17. Arcata showed true sportmanship and took their defeat in a manner that gains for them the name of one of the best spirited schools of the countyf Ferndale vs. Fortuna Practice was kept up steadily between the Arcata and Fortuna game as we expected Fortuna to putlup the hard- est game of the season.

The first half of the game showed the fastest exhibition of basketball of the season, 'ending 15-10 in Ferndale's favor. ' The second half was quite different as Ferndale had become accustomed to the floor, and whenthe final whistle blew Ferndale was still leading by a score of 43-25. The school spirit displayed by the two schools at this game clearly showed the .rivalry between them in this branch of athletics. The spirit was kept up until the last minute and evinced the loyalty of the schools to their teams. Femdale vs. Eureka A The final game of the season, with Eureka, was played on the evening of February 26, on the Ferndale court. The strength of the Eureka team had not been underestimated and Ferndale was forced to extend herself to the limit to win. ' We started out with a rush, taking advantage of Eureka's strangeness to the Ferndale court, and ran up a score of 23-10 in the lirst half. But Eureka was not daunted by this score and played like fiends the last half. Ferndale was forced to assume the defensive and succeeded in keeping Eureka from overcoming the lead by some splendid guarding. 'The score stood 29-23 at the end of the game, giving Ferndale the fourth consecutive championship in basketball. , A short time after a splendid repast was given the team by Coach Rieben at his home which, needless to say, was much appreciated. Mr. Rieben de- serves especial credit for the manner in which he devoted his time in helping the boys perfect a winning team and it is largely through his efforts that the boys' basketball championship rests with Ferndale High for another year. 63 5 is Q, 0' u Q .

The rains made it impos- sible for the boys to get in hardly any practice before the first league game. However, under the direction of Coach Rieben, they practiced at every oppor- tunity. It will be hoped that after this the season can be set at a later date. Ferndale vs. Arcata In Arcata on the afternoon of March 28, Ferndale met the White City team in the first league game of the season. During the first inning the team did not find themselves and four runs were scored for our opponents. Errors made the game slow and ragged. It resulted in a 9 to 6 score in favor of Arcata. Ferndale vs. Fortuna On Friday, March 30, Coach'Rieben made up a team to meet Fortuna on the following day. Five of the best players had broken training rules and were put off the team for the rest of the season. These men fought hard for the red and white and came home with one of the two games they played. The line-up for the Fortuna game was as follows: Hiram Kemp, catcherg R. Hadley, pitcherg G. Oeschger, first baseg R. Mackin, second base, F. Fran- cis, third baseg P. Kemp, shortstop, C. Morrison, left fieldg L. Harbers, right field. In a pouring rain and on a muddy field we defeated Fortuna 4-1. Ferndale vs. Eureka Ferndale journeyed to Eureka, on April 4, for the last game of the season. Our men were outclassed from the beginning, being defeated by a score of 9-0. The game proved slow and uninteresting for the spectators. However, the men who played in the last two games deserve to be commended for their good spirit and the loyalty which they showed in supporting the school. 65 66 The Track Meet For the iirst time in many years the Freshmen class has turned out a number of men which promise to develop into very valuable material. Shortly after the baseball season closed, track practice was begun by a few. The result of the final debate meant considerable to the team, and when the debating championship was won by Ferndale, track practice began in earnest. Following a talk on school spirit by Captain Hicks the candidates for track came out with a vim. After a short period of practice an interclass meet was scheduled between the Sophomores and Juniors against the Seniors and Freshmen. The latter won by a score of 65-49. Several good marks were made at this meet, and some valuable material was found. Ferndale High expects to be especially strong in field events this year. The team will be picked in a few days, and two weeks of hard practice will be had before the meet which will be held at Eureka on May 5. The following is a list of events, winners and time: Event Mile 50 Yard Dash 100 Yard Dash First Ring, Fortuna Falk, Eureka Falk, Eureka Second Third Time Williams, Ferndale Sevier, Eureka 5 :l2 Boren, Fortuna Lambert, Eureka Hicks, Ferndale ....

Ferndale took the Soule Cup with her to Eureka on Saturday, May Sth, but, as the final score indicates, she took it back again the same evening to hold it another year. By winning the Boys' Basketball, Debate and Track Championships, Ferndale ties Eureka for the County Championship Banner. The event that decided the meet was the javelin throw. When Hadley and Kemp of Ferndale took first and second, it was impossible for Eureka to take the meet. Had Eureka won second and third, she would have tied Fern- dale. The only county record made was in the javelin. This is the first year the javelin throw has been included, so Robert Hadley holds the county record by capturing first place. Hicks and Francis gathered in half of Ferndale's winning points. Hicks took 19 points, while Francis took 16. All the boys deserve much praise for their good work, for everyone did his best to bring the cup back to Ferndale. Hurrah for the Track Team!! They won the cup!! 67 Ries fCapt.J and Becker Bugbee and Casanova Oeschger French and Rieben Tennis Ferndale High School was not able to put out a strong tennis team this season because of the loss of her best racquet wielders through graduation. Captain Ries put forth every effort to build up a strong team from the material at hand, but, due to the inexperience of these, and the lack of time to practice, no strong players were developed. Several of the players had not handled a racquet before this year, but they showed the right spirit and gave their best for the team. With this spirit still prevailing, it will be quite possible for Ferndale High to make a strong bid for the tennis championship next year. The tryouts were held September 24, and positions lilled as follows: Boys, Singles, Frank Francis, Boys' Doubles, George Becker and Otto Riebeng Girls' Singles, Ida Oeschger, Girls' Doubles, Gladys Bugbee, and Katie Casanova, Mixed Doubles, Cyril Ries Ccaptainj, and Sadie French. Eureka vs. Ferndale On September 30 the Ferndale team met Eureka for the semi-finals. The day was bitter cold and very little en- thusiasm was in evidence. Eureka won the tournament- capturing three of the five events. Frank Francis, of Ferndale, defeated Leon Leowenthal, .1 of Eureka, in Boys' Singlesg 5-75 6-3, 6-4. i l Girls' Doubles: Ethel Bohamannson and Alice Lambert, l of Eureka, forfeited to Gladys Bugbee and Katie Casanova, of f K 3 we Ferndale. af ll In the other events Eureka won in straight sets, as fol- lows: Boys' Doubles: Page Cutten and Archie Sinclair defeated Otto Rieben and George Becker, 6-Og 6-2. Mixed Doubles: Bessie McMillan and Frank Pidgeon de- Q feated Cyril Ries and Sadie French, 6-lg 6-0. Girls' Singles: Dorothy Falk defeated Ida Oeschger, Francis 6-13 68 xg? ff ' 1 fi' Q. ffl! POETIC EFFORTS OF A JUNIOR The sky is green, the grass is blue, I sit myself down to an oyster stew, The birds were singing all the night, You will get choked if your collar is tight. Oh see the rooster scratching hay, At dawn the band began to play. At night the sun goes down to bed, And covers with the clouds her old bald head, And then the moon, she winks at me, For writing such bad poetry.-HARBFIRS, '18 .

Then Tacky's football pants are effectually lost, QHe'll not address the chair for he will not be bossedj In the conglomeration of basement debris, Someone will please find and return them to me.
